Taming the Luna

Baila

Alexia's POV

Throughout our time together, I had never felt more attracted to my mate than I did in that moment. I saw a side to her that enthralled me, and my Wolf and I wanted so much more. Slyly, I ground my hips against hers harder, trying to get a rise out of her. A low moan left her lips, and I was just about to yank her into my home when, for some reason, we switched partners. Fernanda ended up in my arms while Jaime danced with Belinda. I growled lowly at her while a little smirk lay on her face, refusing to disappear. My Delta had the most amused look as he moved with my mate.

"So, when were you going to tell me you had found your mate?" Fernanda's sleek voice left her mouth as we danced together; this time, I made sure we were barely touching. She had finally ditched the false kind face, and I was able to see her cold expression. I groaned inwardly as my Wolf began to curse me. "Huh, Alexia?"

"Fernanda, we weren't serious; you know that-"

"What about the time you said I was your forever and your forever I shall remain?" Her grey eyes were zooming in on me, and my patience was beginning to thin.

"That was when we were thirteen, for God's sake! I thought we were mates!" Fernanda raised an eyebrow before retorting,

"And what makes you think that she is your mate?" This time, I growled nastily at her, warning her to watch what he says. "Up till now, I was considered the Luna! Not her-"

"Dammit, Fernanda! No one thought you were the Luna. You and I were just partners. Friends with benefits, if you will. People just trusted you. You are and remain to be an important part of this pack. Just respect that we are no longer together-"

"I'm going back." I froze at the sentence and gazed at the woman standing in front of me. "You can't stop me; it is my right, you know."

Belinda's POV

"So, spill. What's the deal with Alexia and Fernanda?" Jaime's smile disappeared as I spoke to him, and I saw the hallmark nervousness in his demeanor. "Don't bullshit me; she's already told me to 'stay away' from her." The man groaned before staying,

"Belinda, somethings should remain secret, you know. It's not my place-"

"Fine, I'll go to Regina." His eyes widened at my remark. Well, if he wasn't going to tell me, I was going to find out!

"No, you can't! Regina will tell the Alpha that you're asking around."

"Then, just fucking tell me!" I even gave him puppy eyes, and that seemed to make him crack. He sighed with annoyance.

"Fine. Fernanda and Alexia were involved in a relationship when she left for your Pack. Fernanda thought they'd still be together when she came back, but you came in her arms. So, there it is." I raised an eyebrow at him, but he wouldn't budge. Just like Faolan. "Now, I think we should switch again before-"

"SOCORRO!" A hollow scream was heard from the forest, and I stopped moving, ready to act if needed. A girl ran towards Alexia, tears streaming down her face. She had to have been my age if not more. "Alexia, Renaldo's out there by the borders..." Immediately, she looked at me, and I felt her fear and anxiety.

"Everybody, inside your homes!" Every wolf ran inside the buildings, except for Regina, Santoro, Jaime, and Fernanda. I ran to my mate, and she lunged for me. Without warning, she yanked me to her body and breathed in my scent. I had seen Lorcan do this to Mena, and I realized that having her so close to me calmed my nerves. I found myself wrapping my arms around her waist. She murmured, "Mine...My sweet Belinda..." Then, she pushed me away, saying, "Mate, I need you to stay inside my home. Do not leave unless any of us say otherwise." Ximena was right. The mate pull between us was growing stronger by the minute; I needed to be with her for this.
