THE UNIQUE LUNA

CHAPTER 12: HEAD ACHE

It's almost dinner when the meeting was ended. Wolves filled again the whole pack house. Some of them were frequently glancing in my direction and keeping watching me from afar.

"I win." I said and huffed proudly while setting my last card in the table.

"Oh no, not again." Hans pouted after his 20th lost in our card game.

Dione laughed out loud for his partner defeat and shuffled the cards for another game. “The meeting is done. Can I go home now?” I boredly asked Dione while looking at my wristwatch.

He shrugged his shoulder. “Alpha doesn’t giving his permission yet.” He answered. "Are you up for another game?"

I puffed a deep exhaled in frustration then shakes my head. I am not comfortable to be in the middle of angry wolves. They likely looking for an opportunity to bite my head off. This is not a right time for playing cards with these young wolves.

"Aw!" Hans hissed in disappointment. "I thought I can get at least a win back!"

"As if you can, Hans." Dione disagreed. "You will take 100 years before you defeat us. You're too suck in playing cards. I will never play it with you again."

"Eh? Am I?" Hans said shockingly.

I laughed by remembering my bestfriends in their endless bickering. Another reminisce that makes my heart ache.

"Okay, stop it guys." I yelled when they started pushing each other then wrestled in the floor. "No more fight."

They immediately stopped and properly seated again in the floor. "Why don't you stay for a night?" Hans suggests with his puppy eyes. "I want you to stay longer with us. It's been a long time that I enjoy guarding someone."

I forced a smile while stratching the back of my neck. I can't believe this young wolfman is asking me to stay in their territory. He must forgot how his pack despised my presence.

"I think that is not a good idea." I said turning down his suggestion.

"Oh right." He pouted and awkwardly look at his surroundings then look down at his feet.

“Freya.” Alex gladly called me when she sees me. "I'm glad you're still here."

I smiled at her. “Hey Alex!” I greeted her back. "Or I should call you Luna Alex now?" I grinned.

She playfully slapped my shoulder. "Alex is fine." She said then winked.

"Good evening Luna." Dione and Hans greeted Alex in unison.

I shuddered when these young wolves used the term 'Luna' at Alex. I can feel Diane is forcing her way out again. She must be affected by her packmates calling Alex as their Luna. Her pride being their true Luna is rejecting the fact that there is another shewolf acting their Luna.

'I am their Luna!' She yelled in so much anger in my head. 'Tell them!'

“The f-fudge..." I hissed when my head is starting to ache by Diane's yelling.

'Diane, stop it!'

'You're hurting me.'

'Just give up already! You are not their Luna anymore!'

'They not even know about you!'

I gasped loudly. I can feel Diane whimpering and crying in my head. Maybe I hurt her feelings. But she must face the truth, she was inside of me who is a human. She knew a human community is different from their community. A human doesn't give a care about mates or packs like them.

"Hey Freya! Are you okay?" Hans tapped my shoulder while looking at me in so much concern. "You're pale and trembling."

I forced a smile. "I g-got a s-sudden h-headache but it's nothing serious."

"No, no, no." Alex disagreed. "You can't just ignore it. I am a doctor and I know the danger of a mild head ache can be especially to humans. It can be a symptom of a serious disease!"

"I already fine." I said after Diane stopped whimpering. "Don't worry about it."

"No! Let's go in my clinic!" Alex insists. "I will look into it if you are really okay."

I exhaled a deep breath. "Fine." I surrender.

Alex smiled at the two young wolves. "Come with us." She commands at them.

"Yes Luna." They politely answered that makes Diane started whimpering again.

"Oh come on! Not again!" I hissed when I feel a sudden head ache again.

Dione and Hans started panicking then carried me into Alex' clinic. They lay me down in a bed. I look around in the clinic and I remember the days I spent with it.

"Nothing change." I commented after looking around.

She suddenly hugged me from my side. “I heard from Donnie the details of your circumtances with Alpha Dwight. If I knew it earlier, I helped you clear your name. I will show them your medical certificate and even my medical monitoring of your condition.” She said with so much sadness. “You are innocent.”

I give her a small smile then hugged her back. “I’m sorry for thinking bad things with you, Alex. I thought you betrayed me.” I honestly said.

“I know. I know. It is normal for you to hate us." She said. "Being involved with our kind, we give you a plenty unpleasant memories."

I bit my trembling lips. Suddenly all my bad memories for these two years are flashbacks in my mind.

"I am very sorry, Freya!" Alex deeply apologized and tightly hold my hands. “I can't believe that our former Beta did this to you. He framed you to a sin you never did. I wish I can turn the time back and save you back then.”

I sadly smiled at her. Like her, I wish I can control time and turn back to the day before the incident happened. But it is just become my biggest regrets.

I cleared my throat. "Where is he?" I asked looking for Beta Jimmy. "I don't see him around."

Alex looked at Hans. "Uhmm... Dad died six months ago from a rogue attack." He informed me.

Diane whimpered again knowing that her father was already dead. Her whimpers will kill me in no time.

Then I feel an intense pressure from the front of the door. I think their Alpha finally showed up. Maybe I can go home now.

Alex questionably look at me for suddenly looking at the door then the door opened and Alpha Dwight enters panicking looking around the room. His eyes stopped when he saw me.

I saw a slightly glint of gold in his eyes when he saw me.

"Freya there you are." He smirked.
