The Unwanted Luna

I don't have to be told twice, I ran like my life depended on it because it actually did.

I didn't need to look behind me to know they were following me, I could hear the swishing of air behind me, telling me that they were after me and that they were now more than two.

The way they moved clicked with something inside me, a sort of memory or feeling that I have had before.

It reminded me of the day my parents were killed.

There were no footsteps when the things appeared; it was almost as if their feet weren't really touching down, almost as if they were so light that they levitated on top of the ground and then there was the fact that there was no scent attached to them, absolutely none. And that is when it finally clicked, really and truly clicked, they were the same creatures as before the same ones that murdered my parents.

I was really scared this time because I knew that the pack can't sense them or smell them so they do not know that there is danger looming over them.

I saw the damage they could do and their abilities gave them the advantage over werewolves. I needed to push myself forward because not only was my child at risk but the pack too. I needed to warn and give them a heads up.

I tripped a couple of times, scrapping my knees but that didn't matter. I needed to keep moving because if they caught up to me it would be game over.

I keep praying to the moon goddess to spare my child. As if hearing me I see the pack house coming into view and I have never been so much relieved in my life.

Once I am out of the forest and onto the backyard I feel them retreat which confuses me.

My breaths are coming out heavily and my whole body is drained.

I turn around to look at the forest and see them retreat. I don't want to think much into it, just thankful that I made it safely.

I rush into the house and into my room because I can still feel the dangerous energy around me, suffocating me and the last thing I need is to be out here where I feel unsafe.

Once I reach my room I close my door and lock it. I go to my bed and just sit crossed legged trying to figure things out.

First the creatures arrived out of the blues after a decade which begs the question why now? Then the figure with the red glowing eyes warns me, could it be that I misread him?

That just because he appeared every time the creatures and voices appeared didn't mean it was actually evil?

Otherwise why would it have warned me? Plus, there was the fact it referred to me as its queen right before I fainted which confuses me even more.

I have more questions than I have answers to which just frustrates me because I am confused and on edge, I don't know whether it is real or I am going crazy as a result of the bond decaying inside me.

My thoughts are interrupted by a knock on my door, but I don't get up to open it. I am still feeling on edge and I don't trust anyone in this pack and given how paranoid I am right now I would rather everyone stayed away from me. The knocking continues but when I still don't open it, the knocks turn into banging, really loud banging that makes my heart beat to its rhythm.

"Amelia! Open this fucking door right now" I hear Xavier's growling voice from the other side of the door.

Was I that much preoccupied that I didn't even smell him? Nor realize that it was him on the other side of the door?

I continue to ignore him because the last person I need gracing me with his disgusting presence is my mate.

I don't have anything to say to him and I am not interested in anything he has to say to me. So I sit on my bed waiting for him to get tired and leave.

"I know you are in there, open the damn door or I will break it"

I snicker at that because if he actually thought that that would make me open the door then he was sadly mistaken.

I didn't want him around me and I was tired, now that the adrenaline was gone I felt really drained.

I was just about to lie down and rest when I heard the door break and a pissed off Xavier steps through the broken pieces.

"Can you be any more dramatic?" I ask him rolling my eyes.

I don't know what has gotten into me, maybe it is the fact that I could have possibly died today or the fact that I am starting to lose all the respect and love I had for him but I just don't care anymore.

All I want right now is to sleep not having to deal with my asshole of a mate.

"What did you say to Bianca? Didn't I warn you to stay away from her?"

I should be used to it now, but it still hurts like a bitch that he continuously chooses her over me.

She couldn't handle a little dose of truth so instead she went to bitch to Xavier? I know she is my sister but I am starting to hate her very existence and the fact that we are related by blood.

"She cornered me, what was I supposed to do? plus I didn't tell her anything that wasn't true. Karma is a bitch Xavier and I can't wait for you two to get yours"

"You honestly think that? Even if she does choose her fated mate, I will continue loving her till the day I die so it doesn't matter what happens I will never be yours and I will never accept you" he sneers at me.

It does sting like it always does but I think I am getting better at embracing the pain.

"Do you honestly think I want you anymore? Well I don't, after everything you have put me through, I hate you and I hope you both burn in hell" I know I sound bitter but frankly I am.

I wam angry and bitter and I hated both of them.

I don't get a warning one minute he was standing in the middle of the room and the next he was in front of me, staring at me in anger.

I close my eyes waiting for him to hurt me like the last time but the pain doesn't come. I chance and open my eyes and clash with a pair of yellow eyes. His wolf was out.

"My love" his wolf says. His voice is much deeper than that of Xavier.

"Hello Ace" I smiled at him.

Ace was a darling unlike his arrogant jerk of a human and I loved him.

Apart from my baby even though he is yet to be born, he is the only one who has the ability to bring a smile to my face.

I can't say the same for his human though and ain't that just sad.

"I am sorry for what he is doing to you, I thought that after marking and mating you he would accept you, that when you conceived he would change his mind but he is stubborn" his voice is as soft as it can be but there was something that caught my attention. "Wait back up Ace, when I conceive? You knew I would get pregnant" I ask him clearly astonished

"Of course, I could tell you were fertile so there was no reason for you not to conceive" he says proudly and casually as if I should have known this.

I can't believe he knocked me up intentionally. I want to be angry but how can I when I have the perfect gift as a result of it.

"I am sorry it didn't work out the way I had planned" he tells me his eyes cast down he looks so vulnerable right now.

It's hard to distinguish him from the black wolf everyone fears. I hold his face in my hands.

I have no beef with Ace and I do love him. It's not his fault that his human is an asshole.

"It's okay, you did all that you could and I am thankful that at least one of you loves me. But I don't want trouble with Xavier so please make him leave, please" I tell him brokenly, he nods his head and backs away from me. "Don't hate me please" he says just before he fully transforms into his true form.

"I don't and I never will" which is the absolute truth, I could never hate Ace.

He eventually leaves my room going through the broken door and as soon as he does, I fall on my bed exhausted.

Just before sleep takes me, it hits me, those creatures weren't after the pack.

They were after me, since the first time I saw them. I was and still am their target
