The Alpha's Luna

Chapter 7

Kiara:

I followed Nasia to my chamber, Kyle walked beside me keeping his head high as the guards and maids bowed the second, they saw him walk out of his chamber.

The room was the one beside Kyle’s, him not wanting me to be far from him and since I wouldn’t allow staying in his room as I didn’t know him, he didn’t push his luck.

Nasia opened the door and Kyle gave her a look which made her bow and leave almost immediately.

I found four girls and two men standing inside the chamber, all of them bowed down as soon as we entered.

“Lorenzo” Kyle called and one of the men stood, he had neck long brown hair, silver blue gentle eyes and his smile would charm any girl.

“Prince Kyle” Lorenzo said smiling.

“This is my mate, Kiara” he introduced “I’m trusting you with her life”

“It is an honor your grace, milady” Lorenzo smiled at me and I nodded at him, his silver blue eyes met my brown eyes which made me smile.

“I want nothing missing for her, all of you are at her service, whatever she wishes and desires she gets” Kyle ordered, and the girls and guards nodded and bowed once again before standing straight.

“I’ll let you rest for now, and I’ll come see you tomorrow” Kyle said and I nodded, he looked at the girls and guards who bowed while I stayed still looking at him as he walked out.

I waited for a while making sure that he was gone before letting out a breath I didn’t know I was holding.

“Bloody hell” I ran my fingers through my hair feeling tense at everything that’s happened in the past few hours.

“Are you okay milady?” Lorenzo asked.

Of course not! I was bought by the prince, which meant that now I literally belonged to him, mate or not, pull or not, and that was not something I accepted, no normal person would.

“How can you all be staying here without feeling locked?” I asked looking around the spacious room, it was huge, big enough to hold at least ten of the kids who lived in the street with no home to be in.

The fabric and blankets were enough to keep at least fifteen kids warm during the winter.

“You don’t like the room?” One of the maids asked confused.

I didn’t answer, I just kept looking around the room avoiding the eyes of the men and girls who were staring at me.

“Where did you come from Milady?” Lorenzo asked softly.

“My name is Kiara” I said glaring at him, and he smiled, not returning my hard gaze at him.

“Well Kiara, where did you come from?” Lorenzo asked again, I didn’t answer and just kept looking at them.

“You’re the girl the prince bought, aren’t you?” Lorenzo said gently and I nodded looking at him wanting to know how he knew “I was with him when he met and made the deal with Coblet”

“Don’t worry none of us will speak of this” the second guard who I’m assuming is Dylan said “you’re human”

“Yes” I said avoiding their eyes.

“I am as well” Lorenzo said making me look at him.

“You are?” I asked and he nodded smiling.

“I lost my parents in the war between the magical creatures and humans when I was a child and Prince Kyle’s mother Queen Eliana took me in and raised me as her own child, then she passed away when the prince was six and I was nine, the king still raised me as his own and when I turned seventeen I was the prince’s personal guard” Lorenzo told me and I nodded.

“Then why are you mine now?” I asked and Lorenzo smiled.

“Because he wouldn’t trust anyone else with your life except me”

I didn’t say anything after that, but my mind kept turning at why Coblet would sell me out, especially since he and I were very close, and I knew that we didn’t have any problems between us, at least I think we didn’t, I’m not sure anymore.

“Miss Kiara, would you like to get some rest?” One of the girls asked.

“Could you leave me alone?” I asked and the girls wanted to object but I could see Lorenzo raise his hand at them.

“Okay” he said gently “but only for tonight, starting tomorrow we need to start doing our duties toward you, and you will have to accept it”

“Thank you”

I waited until they closed the door before sitting on the floor with tears streaming down my face, first my mother, then Coblet, why is all this happening to me?

My hands shook as I sobbed feeling my body weaken, then I felt it, a pull, a strong one tugging at my heart strings.

Strong arms were wrapped around me and my eyes widened as I was suddenly alert and on the verge of attacking only to be met by Kyle’s brown soft eyes meeting my own broken ones.

I could hear his wolf whimpering at the sight of me and another sob escaped my lips as I felt so small in his arms, Kyle didn’t say anything as I cried, he didn’t remove his arms either.

It wasn’t until he was sure that I calmed down and moved pulling myself away from his grasp that he slowly opened his arms for me to move away from them if I wanted to, though his eyes seemed to search mine for any kind of explanation.

“Why is this happening to me Kyle?”

“What do you mean?” Kyle frowned in confusion, him and I were sitting on the floor facing one another as I wiped my tears not wanting him to see them anymore, but new ones fell either way.

“First, I’m kicked out of my home when I’m thirteen, now I’m sold by the only people I called family, why is this happening to me? What have I done wrong?” the pain was visible in my voice and I felt Kyle’s wolf howl in pain as I spoke.

“Kiara, I had no other option, believe me if I did have the chance, I would’ve come up to you and told you who I was and what you were to me” Kyle said gently.

“What am I to you Kyle? You don’t even know me!” I snapped standing up, Kyle stood up and faced me his eyes staying on my own.

“You’re my mate, I don’t need to know you to know who you are to me” Kyle snapped back “and I’m not even forcing myself onto you, I want to get to know you and I want YOU to get to know me, I want us to fall in love despite the bloody pull!”

“Oh yeah and I’m supposed to believe you, aren’t I?” I asked angrily and Kyle’s eyes widened at my accusation.

“You tried to raid my carriage and I did nothing about it, you disrespected and are still disrespecting me in every possible way and yet I say nothing about it, do you really think that I would be this patient for a girl who means nothing to me? Hell, my own sisters have never done what you’ve done in the past few hours”

My heart clenched at his words, the look in his pained eyes made me fist my chest as the pain became too unbearable, Kyle seemed to notice my pain as his eyes softened and he slowly put his hands on my shoulders.

“Deep breaths Kiara, inhale, exhale” Kyle said very gently and my eyes watered as I shook my head, he frowned and wrapped his arms around me hugging me tightly.

“I understand your pain and anger, but please give me a chance” Kyle whispered holding me in his arms “I’ll be sure to make all this pain go away”
