Chapter Hundred-Six – Seriously?
Rihanna’s POV
All the birds had been sent. I left Beatrice’s side to look for Hunter but he had been put to sleep by Jaden, before he left.
Their bond was quite quick. How did he not find Hunter’s chattering annoying?
“You know he has a younger brother so he may be used to it already.” Lana chuckled.
Please, I have a younger brother but we stopped being childish when we shifted cause that made us full wolfs and expectations arose.
“Alpha!” Dara rushed to me, holding a report.
Her face said it all. The report was a bad one. Seeing she was more scared then annoyed, then it wasn’t Logan.
I leaned on the wall of Beatrice’s room, adjacent to Hunter’s. “What now?”
“Chris is asking about the horsetail. He wants to know how the investigation is going.” Dara mumbled quickly.
I snatched the report and scrutinized it. Was Chris really worrying about this girl while all the chaos was happening?
“We should get over this. Have you prepared Sasha for returning?” I enquired from my lead warrior.
Dara nodded readily, “Not really. And I didn’t see her servant after she escaped that night.”
I snapped my head at her. How’d her servant disappear beyond sight in an hour? “Is the girl from around here?”
Dara shrugged. “She acts like she’s from Red Moom so maybe she was trying to get home.”
I hoped she did, and better shut her mouth about everything. “She didn’t see you right!”
Dara shook her head. “I literally wore a mask whenever I met them, the girl escaping was just a slipup. Well, she’s lucky.”
I rolled my eyes at Dara. “You are lucky! Don’t try this again, kidnapping a Royal Luna!”
She sulked looking down. Was about to say something but I raised my hands not wanting to hear it.
Sasha should be the least of my worries now, but here she was being the top.
I pulled my lead warrior with me, as we left to go clean her mess. “Come, let’s go release Sasha to her husband before he comes here again.”
We walked sneakily past the border before any inquisitive warrior follow us. The path to where Dara hid Sasha had a stream.
Very hard to catch her scent here and stepping on rocks will hide our footsteps. My lead warrior was really showing off her skills in espionage.
We arrived at a shabby but medium sized apartment. I nearly walked up to it before Dara pulled me away.
“Sasha lives there, be careful or she’d see you.”
Lives there? “Didn’t you KIDNAP her?”
“I did but since I was killing her yet, I made her comfortable to roam about. She seemed to like the environment if you ask me.” Dara replied.
I was speechless. “So the servant was to take care of her?”
Dara nodded. “Yeah, I planned everything out.”
She sure did. Then why would the servant try to escape without her Luna? Unfaithful thing.
Dara handed me clothes to cover my face and a literal body suit to hide my body shape. When we walked out, she gave me hunter’s boots.
I sighed. “To hide my height?” She nodded.
She strolled towards the house and I followed.
She got in first and begun acting the drama I earlier scripted for her. “The danger had been averted, Luna. Come now, you can go home.”
Using my wolf’s vision, I could overlook the walls and I saw Sasha standing in front of her, with a protruding stomach.
She looked funny but kinda cute. Her body showed she was eating well. Dara basically took her out for a vacation.
“Go where?” Sasha sounded unwilling.
Dara cleared her throat before reciting. “Back to your husband. Your stay here has elapsed.”
Her dramatic voice made me chuckle, I watched Sasha’s reaction. Her face has a frown, then realization then annoyance.
“Isn’t this supposed to be a kidnap? Aren’t you supposed to kill me?” she asked bitterly.
Should she? Damn, what was wrong with this girl? Dara stayed mute, then mind linked to me. “This girl is tempting me.”
“Resist it dear. Just drag her out if she acts stubborn, we don’t have all day.” I said.
Dara sighed, repeating again. “Luna Sasha, it’s spread over lands that you are missing. It wasn’t my intention to ‘kidnap’ you. Please return.”
Sasha scoffed, then slowly sat back on the ground, where she was knotting. “I kinda like it here, not gonna lie.”
Was she really serious?
I gestured to Dara to pull her out but Dara gestured back that she’s pregnant and complications could happen.
“But your stay has elapsed. You must return to your husband before he burns the forests and dries the seas to find you.” Dara repeated.
Sasha ogled at Dara then laughed, she struggled to get up again. “My husband, Alpha King Chris, barely cares about me.”
She had the same mocking emphasis I used to have on ‘Alpha King’. I never knew we both could ever match energy.
And Chris never cared for her? Maybe it was his baby that he cared for.
“Luna, I assure you that you’ve misunderstood the great King, he loved you and would do anything for you.” Dara responded.
I’m sure she gagged after that but as her face was covered Sasha would never know.
“And who are you? You kept me here and you used to treat me badly before, why do you care now?”
Dara was mute then cleared her throat again. “I only acted that way because… I misunderstood the Luna’s kind heart.”
There, that made me gag.
Sasha looked unconvinced, she rested on the wall, looking frustrated. “I don’t want to return. I’m happier here.”
Meaning she wasn’t happy there? I’m not surprised. I mind linked Dara. “Tell her there’s problem at the pack and her husband need her.”
Dara relayed my words to her and she didn’t look slightly fazed. “Must I return? I know my servant left but can’t I get another?”
Dara dropped the act right there and yelled. “Return to your husband, woman! Your stay here as elapsed!
I couldn’t help but laugh loudly, showing myself behind the wall. Sasha stepped back stunned.
Dara looked disappointed in herself losing her temper and the act but I wouldn’t blame her.
Muffling my voice to sound masculine, I said. “You are tiring my little messenger, Luna. Just return to your husband.”
“No!” Sasha went back and grabbed a stick.
“Do you want to deny Chris his child? Do you want to stay here alone? If you don’t return with us, we’d never visit again!” I barked angrily.
She brought down the stick on defeat. Dara rushed to her and held her arms behind her, not forcefully. “Come with me, Luna.”
I nodded at her, giving her the signal to make her unconscious.
Hitting the back of her neck, Sasha fainted, but was caught by Dara. “Now, let’s go deliver the bitch!”
