The Unwanted Luna

Chapter 38



Amelia.

It was a couple of hours after Xavier had executed the traitors in the presence of all adult pack members.

There had been around twenty traitors and most of them were mateless and had a form of weakness.

For Brian it had been the pain of losing his mate, while for Raya it had been her hatred and jealousy towards me.

Agron, it seemed was taking advantage of and playing with people's emotions to get them to turn against us.

Just like Brian, most of the ones we had interrogated before we killed them had been promised something in return by Agron.

Something they really wanted or craved, which was bad because almost everyone living and breathing had something deep inside that they desired with all their hearts making Agron a dangerous opponent since he was likely to get most wolves to back him up. "What are you thinking so hard about?" Sophie's voice interrupted me.

We were in my room and she was helping me organize my messy bedroom which I haven't been able to organize with everything going on.

She was around six months pregnant and she should be taking it easy but she told me she needed something to do or she would go crazy.

Tristan and Freya were out with the other kids playing. He needed something normal after almost being kidnapped by someone he trusted.

Xavier had told me how Tristan had somewhat shifted and even though I was proud of him for that I was still fucking scared because it only proved how powerful he was and that same power was what Agron was after. There was no change with Bianca and I couldn't keep her in an induced coma forever. The discord between her two halves was beginning to wear down the spell I had used and sooner or later she would wake up.

We needed to find a way to help her before it was too late, it was because of that that I had asked for Selene's help.

"I'm just stressed with this whole thing" I finally answered.

I stood up and started pacing, our mission to clean up my untidy room completely forgotten.

"Okay, lemme ask you...have you been able to feed, like you usually do with Nolan?" she asked me, making me look at her questioningly.

"No I haven't...I did try a few days ago but for some reason I couldn't go through with it even though my body was craving the sex"This book has many missing chapters and scenes if you're not reading it on [J] o b n lb.c[o] m. "And with Xavier?" she continued asking, making me wonder where she was going with this interrogation.

"I feel like jumping his bones every time I see him" I said deadpan.

I needed to really feed, using my sex toys wasn't really helping. It was similar to trying to feed a starving man a tiny apple.

"Okay, that's good...are your boobs tender?" This made me gape at her because I couldn't believe she would ask me that.

"What the hell Soph, I am not pregnant!" I almost shouted at her because it was just absurd. I couldn't get pregnant.

Like I said before, if there was even the slightest chance of me getting pregnant, then Nolan would have already been a dad by now.

"I didn't say you were...just answer the damn question Lia"

"I definitely will not" I replied stubbornly.

Without any warning, Sophie stood up, walked towards me and once she was just inches from me, she squeezed my breast making me squeak in pain. It fucking hurt.

"Definitely tender...and damn firm for that matter" she murmured the last part to herself before going back to her sitting position.

Can you believe that? She actually squeezed my boobs, who the hell in their right mind does that.

"Last question...have been feeling tired lately, and hot especially at night?"

"Yes" I replied looking at her suspiciously wondering how the hell she knew all these things.

"Well, I wasn't sure but after I caught your scent this morning which has changed overnight, plus the way Xavier and the other unmated males behaved around you during the executions and finally your symptoms, I am now definitely sure" she said with a gentle smile. "What are you talking about?" I asked, completely confused.

Yes, Xavier had behaved strangely and so did some of the other male wolves but I just thought it was because of the dire situation they had to deal with. It definitely hadn't been easy killing people you have known for most of your life.

"It's simple really, but I guess you wouldn't have known since you never went through it...you my dear best friend are in heat" she finally said and I just stared at her like she had grown two heads.

"That's completely impossible. I'm no longer a wolf so how the fuck could I be going through heat?"

"I don't know, just telling you how it is...you can ask Onyx if you need confirmation. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm double sure I am not" she replied.

That couldn't be possible right? There was no way I was going through heat, it's just impossible. Goddesses don't go through heat, there has to be another explanation.

"She's telling the truth, you are going through heat" Onyx's voice pops in my mind, almost making me jump out my skin.

"How's that even possible" I asked her trying to make sense of things.

"You are part beast and also being close to Xavier and the bond reviving has awakened that part of our selves" she said right before she went back to sleep.

This was completely insane. The last thing I needed to be dealing with right now was heat.

I know it can last up to a week and if you don't take care of it, it can become physically painful.

"Looks like Onyx has confirmed what I already told you" Sophie said with a smirk making me want to slap her silly.

"Yes, and it's okay...I will just go out tonight and find someone to ease the sexual tension" I told her trying to calm my racing heart.

"What part of you couldn't sleep with Nolan don't you understand. It's physically impossible for you to sleep with anyone else apart from your mate during heat. It's either Xavier or you ride out the pain till your seven days are over" Those were not the words I needed to hear at all. It would be so much easier if I could just sleep with anyone but it looked like that choice had been taken away from me.

"I guess I'll go with the pain, I mean how bad can it be anyway?" I said turning to Sophie.

Xavier wasn't a path I was interested in exploring. I haven't gotten over the issues I have with him and having sex with him wouldn't be helping things.

"If you say so" Sophie replied with her smile but it was completely mocking. Almost as if she was sure I couldn't handle it.

I've gone through a lot of shit the recent one being beaten to oblivion by the god of the underworld so I was sure that heat pain would be a walk in the park for me.

If I had survived the pain from the marks of betrayal for more than five months, I would also survive. I am sure it wouldn't be as bad as the ones from the marks.

"Fucking shit! I hate it when you do that" for the second time today Sophie's voice brings me out of thoughts.

I looked towards where she was looking at only to find Selene standing there with a smile, her eyes completely white.

"I will never understand the foul language you use in this realm" she said just as her eyes turned back to their normal blue color.

"Your scent is different Lia, it's sweeter than usual...so I'm guessing you're in heat" Selene said, her eyes focusing on me.

Really? Was I the only one who didn't fucking know that I was in heat?

"See, even Selene has confirmed the fact that I was right" Sophie said smugly and if it wasn't the fact that she was carrying my niece, I would have thrown the book next to me at her. "Shut up!" I growled at her.

"Enough ladies, we've got things to do so let's get to it" Selene interrupted our bickering then walked towards the door probably heading to Bianca's room.

We follow behind her and soon we are there. We find Xavier there making him turn the moment we enter the room.

He lets out a growl and his eyes keep shifting from grey to black. I guess my heat was affecting him.

"Are you going to control yourself or will I have to kick you out?" Selene asked him. She was smiling, meaning she found the whole thing amusing.

"I'll control myself" Xavier replied before closing his eyes, taking in a deep breath. When he opened them again he was calmer.

Everyone was quiet for a while as Selene examined Bianca. No matter how bitter I am with her I honestly didn't want this to happen to her.

It actually pained me seeing her. These past few days staying with her made me realize something, most of my anger and hatred towards her were just concealed pain.

I was mostly angry with her because she had hurt me and I refused to let go of that pain. It wasn't possible to let go of the pain overnight but I wasn't going to be carrying it with me anymore.

"Is there a cure for her?" I asked Selene after some time.

"There is one but it's a long shot and I am not sure it will even work" she replied sitting down next to her.

"We have to find someone to mark her as their mate...I believe that would be enough to mend her soul" she finished.

I was afraid it would be something difficult involving sacrifices or some shit like that but thank heavens it wasn't.

"That's easy enough to fix...Xavier will mark her" I said calmly.

Xavier marking her will not only solve my heat issue but also the bond.

"I'm not doing it!" Xavier growled angry, which I didn't understand. They had been lovers before so it should be easy.

"Why not? It will save her and she will be your mate...something both of you have always wanted"

"I already have a mate, you are my fucking mate" he shouted at me angrily.

"If I remember correctly you told me I wasn't your mate and that Bianca was, remember that? You said your heart will always belong to her" I said dryly.

I just don't get it. This was our chance to get rid of the bond and since I was alive, they didn't have to stay away from each other out of guilt.

"Think about it, this is your chance to get rid of the bond and truly be with Bianca. I'm giving you my blessing to be with my sister"

"You expect me jump on that offer when all I want is to get you naked" he gritted out while he clenched and unclenched his hands. Well it was safe to say that he was definitely pissed off.

"Well, we can look past that...let's just choke it up to the bond and my heat...I am sure Bianca would understand" I said trying to reason with me.

"Let's get something straight, I wanted you and it's not because of the bond or heat.If I had my way I would have had you bent over a table with your sweet ass in the air, my cock buried deep inside you. My desire has nothing to do with your fucking heat or the bond so I'm not marking Bianca because my mark doesn't belong on her neck" he finished saying his nostrils flared and a deadly storm brewing behind his grey eyes.

"We are done here" he said right before he stomped away banging the door on his way out.

I went to speak but Selene interrupted me, what would I even say in the first place after he just said that in a room with two other occupants.

"He wouldn't have been able to help your sister even if he had been willing. Bianca needs someone far much stronger than an alpha, even if he is the strongest alpha of his time"

I heaved a sigh of defeat knowing what I had to do. The only one strong enough to mark her was Nolan but the hardest part would be convincing him to help her.
