EPISODE HUNDRED AND FORTY ONE
THEME: All for Jayden
MOON STONE FORTRESS
AT THE BORDER
“What in the world were you talking about there Jayden? What quest? What attack?” Juno bombarded him with questions after he locked the door to the room.
Jayden rubbed at his forehead as he stared straight into her eyes. “Juno, keep your fucking voice down and listen to me! I just saved you from being lynched there and this is all you have to say?” He grimaced.
“Why here of all places Jayden? These people are dangerous. They have been plotting against-”
“Hold it!” Jayden bellowed at her. “I have no idea what you are talking about. Even if I do I still choose not to believe it because this same people have been my solace since none of you care about me! Now the question is why were you looking for me?”
Juno looked betrayed. “Why would you keep talking to me like I don’t matter Jayden? Jayden, you know how madly in love I am with you. Why would you think I wouldn’t find you when you went missing? I simply can’t live with the thought of you being far away from me.”
Jayden slumped into the bed, trying to play along and feel affected by her supposed touching words. An idea had stuck to his head the moment she had told him about coming to find him. Knowing how obsessed Juno was with him, it would be easy to make her do whatever he wants her to do and all he needed to do was make her think he felt the same way as her.
His eyes crawled over Juno and for a moment the only thing he felt for her was pity. Jayden couldn’t explain it but there is nothing more he felt for her but lust. She has the body to drag any man she wanted in bed but the fierceness Lorelei possessed, Juno had none of it despite being a warrior. And Jayden couldn’t care less who he might be hurting at the moment, as long as he gets to hurt his brother back and get his woman too. His plans was to have Lorelei in his arm and elope with her far away where no one will ever find them and make Jaylen die of heart break. Nothing would make him feel more better than seeing Jaylen get hurt so badly.
Lost in thought, Jayden wasn’t aware of Juno kneeling in front of him with her eyes filled up with unshed tears as she looked in his eyes.
“Let’s leave here baby. I would go anywhere in the world with you and you don’t have to worry about the Alpha post. Dad left every of his company rights to you, Jayden, so we can go far away, start our life afresh and birth beautiful kids. All I want is to be with you.” Her voice pleaded with him.
Anger flashed through Jayden’s eyes as he snatched his hands away from her. “Are you even listening to yourself? Do you know how hurt I am right now? You weren’t the one who had her whole family turn their backs on her! They deprived me of all that I have worked for, for years so I definitely won’t hold back and would get my desired revenge.”
Juno gulped as he stood up and moved away from her. “Ok, fine, I get it. But you don’t have to do this with this people. I mean…the both of us can work around this. Please Jayden.”
Jayden turned to her as he stared deep into her eyes. “If you really care about me Juno, you would do this for me. All I want from you is to ensure we get into the Fortress undisturbed.”
“To do what exactly?”
“I need to have Lorelei kidnapped and have Jaylen suffer for it.”
Juno became angry. She wiped away the tears that had streamed down her face. “Is this what all of this is about? You only intend to get Lorelei? What if you succeed in abducting her and make her yours so what becomes of me then?” She demanded.
Jayden cursed under his breath after he realized his mistake. He held her hands and gave it a small squeeze. “I promise you Juno there is nothing more I want right now than to get back at Jaylen. I really don’t care about Lorelei either. I just want to hurt Jaylen and make him pay for taking away everything that belongs to me. Listen, you have been the only one who has stood by me when everyone else didn’t so we would work something out after all of this I promise.”
Juno held his gaze. “Are you sure?”
Jayden nodded his head. “Just do this for me baby. I promise to do whatever it takes to make you happy.”
“What should I do then?”
“Get me the Secret Passage Map of the Fortress.”
Juno gasped in shock. “What?! That would be hard to get!”
“Don’t be like that Juno. I know how much Jaylen trusts you so he wouldn’t suspect a thing. All you need to do is ensure you have your hands on it and you don’t necessarily have to bring it over. You can scan it with your phone. That’s all I need you to do.” He rushed out his words.
“I have never heard about that.” Juno said.
“That’s because it is kept in dad’s study at the pack house. The Alpha is the sole keeper of it to prevent the map from getting into the wrong hands. How do you think the Fortress has held on against any external attacks all these years? It is because no one can access it without knowing the secret passages. Anyone who does that would only be going on a suicide mission.”
“A suicide mission? So why can’t you just return to the Fortress and do this yourself?” She asked.
“I would raise too much suspicion if I lingered around like that. You should know better. Please baby.”
Juno couldn’t believe Jayden was calling her so sweetly. It made all of her insides melt. This had been all she had ever wanted with him, being close to him, staring into his eyes and him telling her of everything he would love to do with her. She couldn’t refuse him even if the thought came to mind.
All her life she had wanted to hear Jayden refer to her as baby. And here he was dishing it out to her with no caution. It won’t hurt to support the one man she has ever loved her whole life. Juno gulped hard as she nodded her head in agreement.
Juno was willing to do anything for Jayden, she would get that map and she was about to betray the Fortress despite knowing it was against the oath she made on the day of her induction into the Fortress Armed Fortress. She had swore to never betray the homeland. But she is willing to forfeit all of this for Jayden.
“Whatever it is you want me to do. I would do it.” She said.
Jayden jumped in delight. The Moon Goddess definitely has a special likeness of him if she was helping him this much.
“I love you, Juno.” Jayden uttered in excitement as he pulled her in for an embrace.
