Always Alone

Chapter 7

Celeste's POV

Massive, humongous, gigantic, what ever words you wanted to describe this man named Brutus in front of me those were words I place good money on that you would use. He literally towered over everything in sight. I'm shock the beast hasnt broken my floorboards at this point. He stood just as tall as Finn but was vastly more intimidating...if you can imagine that.

The tattoos that covered his arms and neck didnt help that fact. Jet black hair covered his head in a devil may care kinda way, his bright green eyes held boredom as he took in my little cabin and then me. To say I was scared of him was an understatement. Thankfully Finn was beside me, but I took no chances so I quietly stepped behind him and poked my head out just to have a peek at what was going on.....Brutus was still looking at me.

Once Finn realized where his gaze was held he growled out forcing me to grab his arm to calm him, the giant before us just bowed his head. "Where do I start?" Was all he asked. His voice was too deep to be human, I was sure of it." Her kitchen first, then work your way through the house. " My mate answered him. It was questionable if this man would take orders but he nodded his head as he made his way to my kitchen.

Once he was gone from the room Finn placed me in front of him to inhale my scent. "I didnt like him staring". Was all he said to me, I felt bad for my mate being in such situations since his bear is very territorial. I just patted his large frame and snuggled into him more trying to reassure him I was his in some small way. Curiosity got the better of me though. "What breed of shifter is he? He is far too large to be a wolf." I got a grunt of agreement before he spoke. "He is a bear like me, just not a grizzly. His mother is unknown and his father was a polar, he still isnt sure if he is a hybrid or not." Poor Brutus, no wonder he is so quiet, and here I judged him too soon. As a child with no parents I felt his pain, even though I had mine until ten try still abandoned me. I know what that's like as a child to not have anyone.

I let go of Finn and walked into my kitchen, looking for Brutus. I found him picking up my fridge over his head, good Goddess! Maybe this wasnt a good idead but I was here so it was now or never. I cleared my throat. "Brutus....I didnt introduce myself as I should have, forgive me. I'm Celeste, it's very nice to meet you." Still feeling a bit scared I hid behind my long hair, he was rather large and intimidating. He looked at me with bored eyes until a small smile made it way to his mouth. "It's nice to meet you too Luna, if you need me, call."

He walked out with the fridge still in the air. The man was much too strong for comfort. Finn came behind me then and wrapped his arms around me. "You'll be a great Luna Celeste, you said only a few words and already have Brutus smitten, he talks to no one." I smiled at that knowledge, I think I made a friend.

A loud crash came from my living room just then that had me pushed against the counter and my mate growling fiercely. "Sorry! Sorry, just me...ah....Celeste?....How attached were you to that pink lamp in your living room?" Of course it was Jacob. The complete opposite of Brutus. He popped his red head around the corner with apologetic blue eyes shining back at me. The freckles on his nose and cheeks made it hard to be mad at him. His sharp features mingled with the gentle in an odd combination, soft yet strong, like all wolves.

"Its fine Jacob, I'll butly her new things if she likes just keep going" Finn had an odd way of saying what I was thinking, the mate bond was amazing. Sometimes i still had a hard time accepting it though. My own parents left me at ten, who's to say Finn wont as well? He might get tired of having his mate cast spells and brew potions, he might resent the fact his pack would hate me. The only thing I could think to do was keep my mouth shut and eyes open, watch for any changes in his demeanor and accept the inevitable, one day my mate would leave....they all did.

Third party POV

She's leaving today, that's fine, I have all the time in the world to bring back my Luna. She'll let her insecurities run wild and hold off the mating, giving me perfect time to bring her back. I wasnt worried at all.

I watched as that freak of nature they call Brutus lug her furniture out the door and into the truck. Freak...disgusting act of power if you ask me, only an Alpha should have that much power and anyone who wasnt should be kept on a tight leash. Now I see the stupid one coming out of the little door. James was it?....maybe Jacob? Who cares, the man was worthless and clumsy. Easy target to take down if he gets in the way.

All I have to do is wait for the right time when no one is looking and snatch her. It will be too easy, an abomination like her wont be missed, I'm sure he'll tire of her eventually and wont even look for her if she turns up missing. Pity, my poor Luna always gets the short end of the stick. That's the way I kept it, the way we all kept it to show her her place in this pack. But once I claim her all will be forgiven and she'll eat right out of my hands like she use to. With her by my side other packs wont stand a chance, I'll be unstoppable. Unlike that joke of an Alpha we have now.

My thoughts leave me as soon as I see Celeste walk out of the cabin, her long red hair swaying from the autumn breeze. My Goddess she is so beautiful. I cant wait to have her to myself, writing in pleasure beneath me. Her sweet lips calling out MY name and not that freaks. All in good time though. I back away from the tree I'm standing behind and make my way back to the pack house. I need a willing she-wolf to sooth the ache Celeste has given me, the little vixen. If only it was her and bot some filth slut....but in due time. Good things come to those who wait.

A/N sorry for the short chapter! Work is killing me!😫 but next one will move along faster and they wont be in her pack anymore! So....yay to that right? Lol have a good night! Dont forget to vote!😁😁
