Contracted to the wrong Alpha
Chapter 72
Lex’s Pov
Her harsh pants and Intoxicating breath fanned over mine as she rested her head on my forehead and I seized the opportunity to kiss her again. I’ll do anything in my messed up life to listen to her moans again!.
Good Lord! It was a melody to my dark soul that needed to be revived. I needed more and if I don’t get the hell up from here and go back to the mansion, I might end up fucking Lilia and spoiling things for myself.
Not even my parents were aware of the fact that I arrived at the pack, all I needed was Raven to tell me where she was and that solved the trick. I missed her so much that my brain was blank and couldn’t even think why the hell she was doing in my Beta’s home instead of the royal mansion but my Xander was too burned up for her scent to think.
I just knew I needed to see her that night or I might lose it.
While she undergoes the bizzares test to confirm if she’s a rogue or not, I’ll try to settle things in Midnight Shade before going back to New York. The Alpha of Green Howling pack refused to back down and I’ve been receiving stupid texts from my father about Jax visits who had been declining the offer I have to them.
I needed White Crisps pack as an affiliate and I’ll get it by all means even if it means laying half of my resources to get it.
I stopped kissing her juicy lips and I rubbed her pouty lips, sighing with desperation and more wants. My cock strained in my pants and I raised her face to look at me deeply.
I almost kissed her again because of those dead brown eyes that glinted at my stare.
“When will your training resume?” I asked her calmly, knowing that she has a lot of tests to carry out and she swallowed, her countenance went down instantly and I bit my lips. I must have touched a sensitive spot that affected her.
“I don’t know, I’m already late. I don’t even know what else would be given to me, especially when Raven had to defile Alveria’s rules and take me out of the Shadow woods of dark wolves.
My body reacted instantly and I cursed beneath my breath at such revelation.
“What??” I couldn’t help the harsh gasp that escaped my lips and she tried to say something when we both heard a loud sound outside the room.
It distracted us both as it was a kind of commotion and when we heard a woman’s cry, Lilia stood up abruptly from my laps in panic and stared at me for a while, before backing me to leave the room to see things for herself.
I had to join her, the noise and commotion was getting louder and curiosity kicked in like never before.
I strode out lazily to the living room and they were all gathered there, Raven’s parents were present, Jethro wore a less worried look and Lilia looked confused than ever, they were all backing me without noticing my presence yet.
“I’m sorry but it’s orders from the King Beta Raven, you’re under arrest for the violation of the Pack rules and your position as Beta would be stripped off.” One of the guards who seemed to be in charge told Raven, whose arms were crossed over his chest, staring at them with a cold stone expression that made me chuckle.
Lilia gasped, his mother was at the verge of breaking down but all I did was stare as the drama unfolds before me.
“His position can’t be stripped off, that lies with the current Alpha”. His mum added more of a suggestion with her shaky voice and Lilia shook her head in disbelief and disapproval.
“That’s way too much, he did nothing harmful. Why go overboards?”
“I’m sorry but it’s an order we need to follow.” They replied to her calmly and a guard stepped forward to get Raven, they looked stone cold and serious, not afraid of what my Beta can do to them or what he might not do but Lilia walked to stand in front of him and shook her head.
“Wait….” Her voice choked as if she couldn’t take it and Jethro raked his hands over his hair in frustration.
“Don’t do that Luna, you’re interfering with the President’s order!” He seethed.
“And you’re interfering with mine too, you should learn to mind your business often!” She spat out in disgust and I frowned.
I could taste the hatred in her tone towards Jethro, she stood before Raven who looked rather amused with a hidden smirk hiding on his face and I felt raw jealousy building up at the depth of my chest.
Jethro swallowed and bit his lips, keeping his mouth shut and Lilia turned to face the guards.
“I’ll go with you instead, I’m the reason all of this happens. Let me go with you, I don’t see reasons as to why he needs to be stripped off.
Raven stepped forward, “No Luna…that’s not your…”
“Don’t stop me Raven, I can’t bear to see you lose your position because you saved my life. I’ll go with them and explain things.”
“We’ll never take you with us Luna, you should head for your training because Alveria is already mad as it is.” They said and walked past her to take Raven who willingly let them and she sighed in frustration turning around till her eyes landed on me and a glint of hope sparkled in her eyes.
“Lex…” She exclaimed and walked towards my direction and everyone turned at once to my direction as they gasped with a bow aside from Raven who was already aware of my presence since last night.
“Lex say something….” Her lips quivered in pain and worry which made me swallow bitterly. I didn’t like how affected she was with Raven but I know she was just worried for him.
“I can’t do anything now Lilia, if it’s from my father then so be It till further notice..”
“But you’re the Alpha!” She glared at me and I twitched my lips, sitting down on the arms rest of the chair.
“I know, I only came last night, Lilia. This order is for my father right now and I can’t interfere, can you understand that please?” I turned to Raven’s mum and she wiped her face and bowed before walking out in pain.
The men seized the opportunity to take Raven out and the living room suddenly became so hot for me to stay as Lilia glared hotly at me and shook her head in frustration.
“You should have stayed back and not added to my list of frustration and pain! She spat out in dread. I could feel the venom dripping out from her tone and she walked out on me and I sighed.
“Welcome back Alpha” Jethro bowed and I nodded.
“Get a car ready, I need to go back to the mansion.” I told him and he nodded, making the atmosphere even stiffer than before and I bit my lips and headed back to the room. Lilia was all dressed up in dark leather pants and a jacket to hide her black singlet and not a word was exchanged. I don’t need a soothsayer to let me feel her anger and irritation and for a weird reason, it made me nervous.
“Flower, can you understand that this is not within my power right now?” I tried to ask her calmly and she glared at me, the soft warm eyes were furious and replaced with a venomous stare.
“I know, I would have been dead to keep things at bay and none of this would have happened to him, you would have gotten a perfect Luna and I wouldn’t be in this godforsaken place with you!”
“Flower…. that’s…”
“Don’t worry Lex, I’d rather die than watch Raven get stripped of his position because of me, you can stay and be powerless as an Alpha as always … . the strength you want me to display in this pack in order to survive just died! I’m done with all of this bullshit bully and flimsy excuses. If you can’t say a word to let them stop Raven, what would you ever say when I’m faced with death. Could you have even saved me the way he did?” She sniffed and put her lips in pain and tugged my hair at her naivety.
The tingling pain at the bile of my throat increased as she spoke highly of Raven.
“When it comes to the law, I’m vulnerable in many ways, Lilia.. what am I to do?” Her expression broke me, I didn’t mean it that way, how on earth am I going to explain to her.
“Exactly!” She yelled in raw anger..
“Stick to the law, get a good Luna and break the silly arrangements so that I can be free!” She sobbed hard and face palmed herself.
“I’m tired, I d…do .. I don’t want to face Alveria or anyone in this pack anymore! Let me go already so that the Law of the pack can abide.”
She cried and I cocked my head to the side and cupped her jaw, Staring deeply into her eyes.
“That’s for the Law Lilia, I’m vulnerable to adhering to the Pack’s Principles and standards but do you know what would happen when it comes to you?” She let the lurking tears fall and I wiped it off with my thumb.
“….I’ll unleash my deepest darkest demons to destroy anything that dares tries to hurt you”
I poured out and her eyes dimmed in confusion.
