THE UNIQUE LUNA

CHAPTER 11: THE VISIT

“Freya!” I heard someone called me and I was so surprised to be tightly hugged by someone from my back. “Oh gosh! You’re here! I thought you forgot about me! You even promise me that you will visit me!” She added crying.

“I-Is that you, A-Alex?” I asked surprised and she welcomed me by her crying face.

I looked at her from head to toe. She looks different. She became look very much mature. From being a pack doctor, I can feel an intense motherly aura from her.

She cling to my shoulder. “Let’s talk later please.” She plead. “Ah please promise me.”

I exhaled a deep sigh and slowly nod. I want to talk to her too. Somewhat I want to clear some things from before. All I know she betrayed me but now I can see that she doesn’t have even slightest idea to what happened to me.

“Luna Alex, what do you think you are doing to that human?” One of my haters asked while glaring at my direction. "Please let her go and don't be near her! She is a dangerous and crazy human!" They warned.

Wait. What?

Alex was called a Luna?

She is Alpha Dwight's second chance mate?

Alex creased her forehead and looked at my haters questionably. “Freya is a friend of mine.” She said that makes all her packmates gasped in horror.

Alex looks around her confused by their reactions. "What the hell is their problem with you?" She whispered at me.

I hardly bit my lips to prevent myself from snapping at them. I can't do that especially I was inside of their territory. It will justify that I am guilty from their accusations.

I should use this visit to prove them I am innocent human so that their Alpha will stop following me.

Donnie stepped in the awkward crowd. “Luna Alex, the meeting is about to start.” He said politely and bow at Alex. “We need you to be there in a minute.”

Alex sighed and then look at me. "Please stay a little longer after this meeting. I want to have a proper talk to you and catching ups.” She said in very serious tone before she followed some of pack soldiers inside a big room.

I scratch my neck to be left in the middle of my haters with Donnie. "How about you, Donnie? Are you not needed to be in the meeting?" I asked.

He smiled. "I was ordered by Alpha to guide you in the waiting room." Donnie said and hold my right hand. "Let's go?"

I followed Donnie and I noticed that Alpha Dwight is nowhere to be found since earlier. Maybe he already went ahead to their meeting.

“May I ask you something?”

He nodded like he is expecting me to ask about Alex. “Why Alex is your Luna? Is she Dwight’s second chance mate?” I asked so confused.

Donnie sighed then faced me seriously. “Alex is err... not Alpha Dwight’s mate. We don’t even know if he has a second chance mate out there. Since there is just a small possibility for us to have that kind of miracle.” He answered.

If Alex is not Dwight’s mate, then what about Alex' real mate?

“I can’t understand. Alex become the Luna but she is not Dwight’s mate.” I said. "How about Alex' real mate?"

“Alex has ability and capability of a Luna since we are kids. We even think before that she is our Alpha's mate but when Alpha Dwight turned 15, we discovered that they are not mates.” Donnie said.

From the start, their pack thinks Alex is their true Luna. But she is not then Donna died.

“After Donna died, we need to keep our pack running. Alex sacrificed herself to be Alpha Dwight partner knowing all the possible consequences. She become our substitute Luna.” Donnie added with a pitiful look for Alex.

A sadness flowed within me. Alex has mate on her own but she will reject him to help people in her pack. She will sacrifice her own happiness.

Donnie deeply sighed. “I hope Alex free herself from this duty. As a friend, I want her to find happiness.” He said.

I agreed with him. Alex is so kind and I want her to be happy with her true mate.

We stopped in front of a door. He looked around and two guys suddenly showed up in our back. “They were Hans and Dione. The Alpha tasked them to guard you in this room while we are in the meeting.” Donnie informing me about their Alpha command. “There are laptop and books inside so you can do our research report.”

***

While waiting, I busied myself in doing our report. It is a simple task for me since I loved studying about wolves before the incident. I had a huge obsession on researching with them before I got my best friends killed.

Nina, Bella…

My best friends will never be back.

Maybe what they said is true, maybe I am the one who killed them. If I don't take an interest to werewolves, I will not meet Alexei and he will not be interested at me. I will still a normal human with a normal daily life.

“Finish.” I declared and save the draft file in the laptop.

Maybe these groupmates of mine will do the privilege of printing and filing our report since I am the one who write the whole report. I moaned while massaging my hurting back from seating on the floor for a whole four hours.

I look at the two young men that keep guarding me whose not even moving an inch for the whole four hours. They are like a statue guarding the left and right of the door. I can't believe that they do that for four whole hours without moving.

I stood up from the floor and went in front of them. “Hey guys. Are you still breathing?” I said while snapping my fingers in front of their face.

My stomach loudly grumbled that makes the right guy almost laughed. I crossed my arms and raised my right eyebrow at them.

“Am I allowed to go to the kitchen? I am kind of hungry after finishing the whole report ALONE.”

Then they silently looked at each for several seconds then nodded their heads. They lead me in their kitchen. I was amazed how big it is and having a complete set of cooking utensils.

“Woah! This is my dream kitchen.” I said amazed. “This kitchen alone was worth a million.”

I rampage their refrigerator and cupboard. They have also complete supplies of food.

"Do you know how to cook?" I questioned my two guards that stiffened them. "Or I should use this kitchen to cook something?"

Their stomachs grumbled like mine that makes their face suddenly turn red. Now, it my turn to smile to them from the embarassment. They were also hungry but they don't know how to cook.

“Fine. I'll do the cooking. Please be seated gentlemen.” I volunteered to the two young men and get some frying pan. “Do you prefer something to eat?” I asked them.

"I want some meat dish and a coffee." Dione answered.

"I want to eat pancakes and pure orange juice." Hans shyly said.

"Noted." I said while looking for the ingredient of their requests.

They nodded as they stomach grumbled again. I laughed at them and started to prepare our food. The two men watched me how I prepare and cook our food while waiting.

“Done.” I said as I set a plate in front of them.

I seated on a stool that is in front of them then. They looked at me and then at their food.

“Don’t worry it is not poisoned.” I joked. “You were watching me the whole time, right?” I added that makes them grimaced from the thought.

We ate in silence. While chewing, I looked at the two men. They seems younger but their body build can be compare to a fully grown man. I know they were strong to be my guard so I cannot possibly escape from them.

“How old are you guys?”

“We’re 15.” They answered in the same time.

I nodded and smiled at them. “Four years younger huh.” I whispered. "Have you found your mates?" I asked them which they both answered in shaking their heads.

"Oh you're both unmated." I said shockingly.

"Yeah." They answered in unison.

I looked at their plates and they both done eating.“Hey… uhmm... did you really kill our Luna?” Hans asked me that makes Dione elbowed him in his side.

I silently put down the spoon and fork that I am holding. “You're an odd one. Asking me the very sensitive question out of the blue." I said then shakes my head. "Well, the answer is I’m not. It is if you believe me.”

“I knew it...” Hans said likely believing to what I just said. “I don’t really think you can kill a person. You were similar to Luna Donna in some way. I almost think you were her earlier.”

Dione nodded his head like he was agreed what Hans saying. “I have the same feeling when I see you.” Dione said honestly.

I gulped. Now, I can sense Diane was giving off a motherly aura for this young wolves. Maybe they sense her when I stepped in their territory. That is why the little girl thinks I am their Luna.

I facepalmed myself then cleared my throat.

‘Hey Diane! Stop it!’ I tried to talk to the wolf inside of me. ‘They will notice you!’

I can hear Diane growled at me. She doesn’t want to hide but later on she give in. Her aura suddenly vanished that makes the two wolves look at their surrounding looking for it.

“Is their a problem?” I acted innocently at their behavior.

They sadly look at me. “Nothing.” They answered again in the same time.
