True Luna: The Unknown Magic: Chapter 11
Alexander’s POV
I was pissed as fuck. Was my mom going crazy?!
I slammed her office door behind me.
My whole body was shaking with anger. I wanted to go back and kill him. I wanted to go back and take her somewhere safe.
If he hurt her…
The door opened, and the rest of my family walked inside.
“What the fuck, mom?!” I screamed as I turned around. “If he hurts her…”
“Don’t talk to your mom like that,” my dad interrupted me angrily.
I looked at him and tightened my jaw.
“Alex, honey, I know that you are scared, but he won’t hurt her,” my mom said. “She is his mate. He can’t do it.”
I clenched my fists and started pacing around the office nervously.
“Why would you let him talk to her?” Mason asked. “He doesn’t deserve her. What his father did…”
“Was horrible,” my mom said, interrupting Mason. “But Alpha Hunter isn’t his father.”
“No,” Mason said angrily. “He could be even worse.”
The fear exploded inside of me. Mason was right. He could be even worse. What if he was hurting her right now? What if he killed her? What if I never saw her again?
My heart was going to jump out of my body. I could feel it in my throat. It would fall out of my mouth. I was fucking sure of it.
‘She is okay, Alex,’Axel told me.‘She is alive. I would know if she wasn’t. You would know if she wasn’t.’
Axel was right, but the fear I felt blocked me completely. I couldn’t feel anything but my heart racing like crazy.
The door burst open and my uncle and aunt walked inside.
“Is it true?!” my uncle growled loudly. “Is the fucker’s son her mate?!”
My uncle was as pissed off as I was. My aunt looked worried.
“Yes,” my dad answered his question. “Alpha Hunter is her mate.”
My uncle growled and looked around the room.
“Where is she?” he asked.
“Talking to Alpha Hunter,” Mason mumbled angrily.
My uncle’s eyes widened. He looked at my parents.
“How could you let that happen?!” he screamed. “We have to go get her! He is going to hurt her!”
I completely agreed with him.
“It’s okay, Andrew,” my mom said. “He won’t hurt her. She is okay.”
My uncle’s eyes widened even more.
“What the hell, Emma?” he asked angrily.
“She will be okay, Andrew,” my mom sighed. “He isn’t going to hurt her.”
My uncle looked at my dad in disbelief.
“You let your daughter alone with that man?!” my uncle exclaimed angrily. “Are you fucking insane?! His father tried to kill my mate and my son!”
“That boy is not his father, Andrew,” my mom said with a hint of anger in his voice.
My uncle looked at her and narrowed his eyes.
“No, Emma, but he was raised by him,” he said, taking a step closer to my mom. “Do you have any idea how much hatred toward us Nathan probably planted into his son? You rejected him. We humiliated him. Logan and I beat the shit out of him. He hates us, Emma, and you just left your daughter alone with his son.”
The fear I felt just doubled. My uncle was right. I should have never left that office! I should have never left her alone with him!
“Andrew…,” my aunt spoke, but I didn’t hear the rest.
I growled as I rushed out of my mom’s office and toward my dad’s. I saw red. I was going to kill him.
Someone stopped me though.
I growled and looked behind me.
It was Jake.
“Don’t, Alex,” he said, tightening his arms around me. “She is okay. Give her a few minutes to deal with this on her own.”
I narrowed my eyes at him. Did he think that he would be able to stop me? I could shake him off like a bug.
“Alex,” I heard my dad’s voice.
I looked up and saw him standing at the entrance to my mom’s office.
“Give her a few more minutes,” dad said quietly. “She is okay.”
I wanted to rip them all into tiny pieces.
“Come on,” Jake said as he started to pull me back into my mom’s office.
“Don’t lecture me, Andrew,” I heard my mom’s annoyed voice. “I was there. I saved them.”
I walked in just in time to see my uncle growl at my mom.
“I swear to Goddess, Andrew, I will punch you if you don’t stop growling at your sister,” my aunt said sternly.
“That is my niece in there!” my uncle said, clenching his fists. “What if he hurts her? What if he tries to take her away? He is his father’s son.”
“Warriors are stationed around the packhouse,” Jake said calmly. “We’ve increased border security. He isn’t taking her anywhere.”
“I mind-linked Jake as soon as I agreed to this shitshow,” my dad said. “I told him what happened and I told him to secure the place. I am not letting anything bad happen to my princess.”
My uncle scoffed and sat down on the couch. He crossed his arms over his chest and looked at my aunt.
“Do you agree with Emma?” he asked her.
My aunt sighed and nodded.
“This boy isn’t Nathan,” my aunt said. “We can’t ruin the possibility of love for Sophie.”
And then a hopeful thought came to my mind.
“What if he is her cursed mate?” I asked, making all of them look at me. “What if she has two mates, just like mom did?”
I couldn’t read the emotions on their faces.
“I hope not,” my mom said. “I don’t want her to go through that.”
“But that could mean that there is another man for her,” I said. “That could mean that she can reject Hunter.”
My mom sighed and approached me. She lifted her hands and cupped my cheeks.
“I know that you are worried, honey,” she said softly. “I know that you want to keep your sister safe, but don’t hope that she has two mates. You don’t want her to go through that pain.”
I tightened my jaw and took a deep breath.
I heard the office door open and I looked behind me.
“Fia!” I exclaimed as I rushed to her and pulled her into a hug.
She was okay. She wasn’t hurt. She was alive.
