Chapter 1
*This is the follow on story from 3 books, The Powerful Luna, The Alphas Choice, The Reluctant Luna and Alpha Academy. There are a lot of spoilers in this story so read last if you plan on reading them all*
Standing on the border of Opal Moon are two very disheveled looking people, one with dark hair and beautiful blue-gray eyes with pale skin. She gently strokes her hair trying to get it to sit back in place, completely disregarding the fact that she is completely naked. One would notice that on her back is a beautiful tattoo overtaking the entirety of her pale soft skin.
The tattoo featuring a wolf, an owl and an eagle. For some reason, the huge piece of art that is covering most of the flawless skin of her back fails to look out of place. The beautiful girls eyes flick to the handsome man by her side, his big hand brushes the twigs and dirt off his tanned skin as he looks at the girl, his piercing blue eyes slightly darkened as he watches the completely naked girl who has no idea how enticing she is.
His blonde hair is all messed up, but it just adds a certain s*xy, wild masculine charm to his flawless face instead of detracting from it. The girl bends down and starts rifling through the bag that they dropped on the ground when they stopped earlier. She starts throwing clothes at the naked man. He catches them at a leisurely pace, nowhere near as flustered as the girl.
“Come on Lucas, we are running late”
“Well princess, I told you that we should have flown instead of run for two days straight”
Alexis glares at her mate, her eyes icy cold and is enough to bring a normal man to his knees but Lucas is far from a normal man. A gloating smirk graces his handsome face. Alexis scrunches her nose in displeasure at the man.
“Fine, you were right and I was wrong, but you have to admit that this way was a lot more fun”
“Of course it was, did I say it wasn’t, but now you are rushing me when it is your fault”
“Say it is my fault one more time, I dare you”
Alexis stands up from the bag, she stands tall and faces up against Lucas, her petite little figure looks like a joke against Lucas’ burly muscle-bound self, he stands a head taller than her, yet the look in her eyes would let anyone know that she means business.
Lucas leans his naked self back against the tree trunk, his arms crossed casually across his chest in a lazy manner. His eyes flash with hidden joy as he looks at his mate in front of him, who looks like an angry wild cat ready to pounce, except for the slight playful smile hidden behind the burning fury.
“Princess… It… Is…All…Your…Fault”
Alexis launches off the ground in the blink of an eye. Lucas’ smile is no longer hidden as he rolls swiftly off the tree, Alexis anticipates his move and swings her legs around, launching off the tree and gripping onto Lucas’ back, wrapping an arm around his neck as she gets him in a choke hold. Lucas’ face starts to turn slightly red but he seems largely unworried about the homicidal attack, as instead of the look of fear one would anticipate he has a playful smile on the corner of his lips.
“Princess, as much as I would love to do this, didn’t you say that we are late?”
His voice is placid as a lake and he is truly sad that he can’t finish what they started. But it would be really bad form to be ridiculously late to a gathering like this and somehow becoming the centre of attention by arriving late or missing anything important, or even to get caught by Opal moon border patrol rough and tumbling just outside the border.
Lucas grins at the thought, what an entrance, getting bought into the pack in that type of predicament.
Alexis jumps off his back and starts rifling through the bag again like she wasn’t the one just trying to commit mariticide. The two get dressed quickly, Lucas buttons up his long sleeved shirt covering up his defined abdominal muscles and large pectoral muscles. He runs a hand through his messy blonde hair to fix it up. The result is about the same as it was, no matter what he does, it just falls the same way, always looking lazily handsome.
His blue eyes sparkle as he watches Alexis cover over her tattoo with a black linen button-up shirt, buttoned to the top button and a pair of white skinny jeans and ties her long dark hair into a simple bun on the top of her head. The messy, violent girl instantly transformed into a smart and sensible girl in the matter of seconds.
“Am I undressed?”
“When aren't we undressed? Would you rather wear a formal dress again?”
“Hell to the no”
Lucas laughs and squeezes her hand. Alexis looks left and right, like the border is actually a big white line that they have to cross. Lucas watches with an amused look on his face. Even with all Alexis’ strength, her naivety amuses him to no end.
“So we can just enter?”
“Well princess, most normal people would be heading through the main entrance in cars, but since you don’t like to follow the norms, yep we just walk in”
Alexis looks at Lucas and wonders how he manages to look so handsome in whatever he is wearing. It is hard trying to keep up with someone that looks so good all the time. She rolls her eyes at his non-stop declaration that she is wrong, like he didn’t enjoy the journey just as much as she did.
“Yes, it is all my fault. I will always listen to you from now on”
She scoffs sarcastically, Lucas smiles slightly as he wraps an arm around her shoulder, knowing that hell would freeze over before Alexis would listen to him. He slings the bag over his shoulder and together they step over the pack border.
They are quickly intercepted by border patrol and sent on their way.
“Wow fast response, we were hardly three meters from the border, how do you train our boys? They aren’t that fast”
Lucas looks at Alexis, who is busy criticizing him even though she trains the warriors just as often as he does.
“I bet they aren’t that fast normally. This is a big event, so everyone would be on high alert. As far as I know, this is the single biggest undertaking in werewolf history. There are so many things that could go wrong. I assume every single one of Opal Moons warriors would be out in some capacity. I would be worried if they didn’t get us straight away”
They walk at a leisurely pace towards the massive crowd gathered on the lawn area. Alexis stands on her tip toes but still can’t see, she never considered herself short until she found herself in the midst of werewolves. Now she actually considers wearing high heels so that she doesn't get neck problems from looking at the towering figures all the time.
“Everyone is too tall. Can you see Christian and Kira?”
“Well shorty…..”
Lucas looks around but he has no hope of finding his twin in this mess, Kira is even shorter than Alexis and Christian has dark hair, so looking for him in the mass of dark-haired, well-built tall men, he might as well be looking for a needle in a haystack.
“No I can’t, you will just have to suffer with me as your company”
“What bad deeds have I done in life to deserve that type of brutal torture?”
Alexis says, her voice sounds harsh but the look in her eye is tender as her arms wrap tightly around Lucas’s waist. Lucas smiles and kisses the top of her head, taking a deep breath in, sucking in a big lungful of Alexis’ sweet scent, calming every cell in his body as he faces the massive crowd of testosterone, power and strong auras.
