Royal Twins of La Lune

Chapter 28 Stella

"You promised you'd come back to me, remember? I'll kill you myself if you break that promise." I said as I laid sprawled out on our bed, naked under the covers.

I was laying on my stomach with Alex on one side and Ian on the other. They were both running their hands over my bare back while my lower half was covered up by the blanket.

"We promise, my love." Ian said, leaning forward to kiss my shoulder.

"We'll never leave you." Alex said, kissing my other shoulder.

"I love you both so much. I don't know how you did it." I grumbled, feeling defeated by my feelings for these two men. They chuckled at me.

"We were made for you, Stella, it's easy like breathing." Alex shrugged.

Sebastian adjusted on the bed and pulled me up towards him so he could cup my face and kiss me passionately.

"We'll see you soon, mon coeur (my heart)." He promised before sliding out from underneath me.

I rolled over to lean against Alex's chest and allowed him to bring my face towards his.

"Stay safe and don't take any chances." He ordered me before crashing his lips to mine.

"You too." I said as he slipped out of bed.

I watched as my naked mates moved around the giant room we now shared. They disappeared into the closet and came out dressed in sweatpants and T-shirts. They kissed me one last time before leaving the room. I wasn't capable of walking them out and seeing them off to battle. Instead, I would hide away in our room and circle myself in their scents until I was forced to get up and prepare the realm for a possible attack.

We didn't know what sort of plans Gabriel was making for sure and we didn't know who his spies were. I had to prepare the realm to fight back in case he learned about Ian and Alex's attack and tried to send his armies here.

When I sensed that Ian and Alex had left the realm, I went to the closet and got dressed myself. I dressed in a pair of joggers and a loose fitting sweatshirt in case I had to shift. I left the room and found Hudson and Dylan were waiting for me. Carter and Owen had gone with their Alphas while the Gammas remained as my guards.

"What's the status, boys?" I asked as they stood on either side of me.

"Your brother and father have already prepared the remaining warriors and patrol guards. All of the portal areas are covered: the border of the royal village, the Legacy and Redemption packgrounds, and the perimeter around the castle have been heavily fortified." Hudson reported.

"Good. What about the bunker?" I asked as we made it down to the ground floor.

"It has been restocked and fortified just in case. There's also a team surrounding the bunker and another team ready to be deployed to help the defenseless make it there in time." Dylan said,

"Perfect. We need to be ready for anything." I said and the Gammas nodded.

"Your mother and sister are downstairs." Hudson added.

"Thank you for bringing them here, Hudson."

I had requested that they be brought to the castle for safe keeping along with all of my friends, including the ones who didn't live here already. The castle had its own safe house where they would be protected. It's also meant for the royal family, including the Queen, but I wasn't having that. I would be out with my people making sure that everyone makes it to the bunker safely.

"There is one thing, Luna, and we haven't told the Alphas." Dylan said and his voice had me worried.

"What is it?" I sighed, stopping in the middle of the hallway to look between the Gammas, who seemed suddenly very nervous.
