Chapter 59
“Alpha, we have a problem.” Gamma Ray said barging into Damien’s office.
“What is it?” He asked.
“Alpha Xander is outside the territory with a pack of wolves.” He said and Damien sighed.
“I will be on my way.” Damien said and dismissed him.
“Ciara, come over, I was told that Xander is here.” Damien said through the mind link.
Not long after did Ciara joined them and they went to meet Xander.
*
*
They stood facing each other like warriors.
“You know why I am here, where is my sister?” Xander asked.
“As you know, she is not here.” Damien replied.
“The last time I checked she is your luna.” Xander said.
“She was.” Damien corrected him.
Xander had tried reaching out to Nicole but she was neither picking her call nor answering her messages. She got him so worried about her.
“Haven’t you heard that she is not my mate and that the pretty lady over here is.” Damien said.
“What?!!”
“This was not part of the alliance.” Xander yelled.
“And I remember telling you that I would not reject my mate.” Damien shot back.
“Xander, you need to calm down and let’s go in to talk.” Ciara said.
Xander looked at her from head to toe.
“And who are you?” He asked.
She smiled.
“Ciara.” She said.
“You… I thought you were already dead.” Xander said and was cut off by a growl from Damien.
He hates it when people keep on repeating her death over and over again.
“She is alive, anything else?” Damien asked.
“Let’s go in, please.” She begged.
Xander looked around his pack like he was sending them orders through the mind link.
He turned and followed Damien and Ciara.
*
They opened the door and went in.
“So what is it you wanna discuss?” Xander said suddenly losing his patience.
He has to find his sister.
“First, your sister is at Crimson moon pack.” Ciara said.
He looked at her.
“The last time I checked she was brought here so how did she get to Crimson moon pack.” Xander shouted with Killian surfacing.
“You need to calm down Killian.” Cayden said taking over Damien’s body.
After a minute of silence, Ciara spoke up.
“I just wanted to tell you the things that happened in the past were not my fault.” She said and went on to explain everything.
After she was done, Xander could not believe it.
“Your own sister asked a witch to strengthen our mate bond and if I were to remember, it was strictly forbidden.” Damien said.
He was tongue tied and dumbfounded. He just stood up and left without a word.
“Phew!, that was easy.” Damien said and sighed.
“Yeah.” Ciara said.
He went closer to her and drew her to him. Their eyes interlocked with different emotions. He slowly took his eyes away and went over to her lips, they were so enticing. He brought his head closer to kiss her and then..
“Alpha, we have another problem.” The head of pack patrols said through the mindlink ruining the moment of pure bliss for him.
“What problem again?” Damien shouted making Ciara laugh.
“There is a guy here and he does not smell like a rogue.” The man said.
“I’m coming over.” Damien said.
“I will come with you too.” Ciara said.
And they went out.
*
*
“Leo?” That was the first word that came out of Ciara’s lips.
He released himself from the guards and ran to hug her.
“Ohh… Ciara, I missed you so much.” Leo said.
“Hmmm.. Leo, can’t breathe.” Ciara said when she saw Damien’s expression.
He released her quickly.
“How are you doing?” He asked.
“Fine and you?” She replied.
“Fine too.” He said.
Then he heard someone clear their throat beside them. He turned and saw a man, he looked from head to toe.
“Leo, this is my mate, Damien.” She introduced him.
He swerved his head to her direction immediately.
“Mate.. Hmmm… Leo by name.” He said as he stretched his hands out for an handshake.
“Damien.” Damien replied.
“What about you come in?” Ciara suggested.
“Sure.” He said and followed her.
*
*
“Oh.. Damien, you are back.” Damien’s mom called out. His father looked up.
“Yeah, mom and we have a visitor.” He said and took a seat beside her.
Then both Ciara and Leo entered.
Leo looked around and saw a man sitting beside a woman and then he stared at him with eyes wide open.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“You….” He shouted pointing at him.
Everyone turned their face to Leo and followed the direction of his eye gaze and it landed on Damien’s father.
Shaking with anger, Leo changed into his wolf form and gnash teeth ready to snap his head off him but then Damien already changed to his wolf form also and stood in a defensive stance in front of Leo.
“Hey, what is going on here?” Hudson said as he came in but kept quiet immediately he saw what was going on.
“Leo, what is all of this?” Ciara asked.
“Change back.” She said.
But Leo was too absorbed in the anger that he was not feeling to give heed to whatever she had said.
“Hey, boy, you need to calm down.” Damien’s dad said.
Leo looked up to him and snarled.
After a furious fight with Damien, Leo dashed out of the room and ran towards the pack territory.
“Leo, wait.” Ciara shouted after him.
He just kept running.
Then he got to a place, a sweetish smell came that was capable of calming his anger hit him straight in his nostrils.
He sniffed it in and ran in the direction of the scent. The only thing that was on his head was… Mate.
He had finally found his mate. But then there was another scent with it.
He screeched to an halt as he took in the sight before him.
His supposed mate with two male wolves.
He howled so loud that it could be detected what pain he was feeling.
First, he met that stinking man and his own mate in between two males. In a flash, he jumped on the wolves and snapped their heads off them.
“Ahhhrrrgg!!!” Rose screamed.
She looked up to see the person who killed them, blood was dripping off his lips and she gulped dryly. She saw how golden eyes had become, his wolf was on the edge.
He snarled at her.
“Impossible.” She shouted.
He turned to leave.
“W-Wait, d-don’t go. I-Ican explain, p-please don’t go.” Rose pleaded.
He turned to look at her and then he took off.
*
*
Ciara got to where she had smelled Leo but found Rose on the floor crying.
“Rose, why are you crying?” She asked as she bent low.
“He left, h-he is my mate, he ran away.” Rose said amidst hiccups.
“Who is your mate?” Ciara asked.
“The wolf that just passed by now.” Rose said.
“Don’t kill him, please.” Rose said.
“There is no reason to kill him, it is just that it is complicated.” Ciara said.
“I gotta go find him.” Ciara said. She stood up and left.
Following his scent, she stopped in front of a lake. She looked around and saw him seated on the ground in his human form.
He had found some shorts behind a tree there.
“Leo, can you tell what this is all about?” She said gently.
He wanted to talk but clamped his lips shut.
She sighed and looked at the lake before them.
“He is my father.” He released the bombshell.
“What?!!!!” Ciara shouted.
*
“Dad, how could you do something like that?” Damien said.
“You can’t understand, I had feelings for his mom but it was just complicated. And also I met my mate.” Derrick, Damien’s dad, said.
“But where is she now?” He asked.
“I don’t know.” He replied.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” His mom asked with tears rolling off her eyes.
“I didn’t want to break your heart.” He said and went over to hug her. She pushed him away and ran out of the house.
Damien looked at his father angrily and barged out too.
*
*
“What are you gonna do about it?” Ciara asked.
“Leave.” He said.
“What of your mate?” She asked.
“I don’t want her. She is a slut.” He said and stood then he left.
She watched him stagger through the woods until he could not be seen again.
“Bye.” She said.
*
*
“Hey, Rose. You need to calm down, okay?” Ciara said consoling her.
“He did not listen to me.” She said.
“He will come back.” Ciara said.
“I hope so.” Rose replied and started crying over again. Ciara sighed.
*
*
**next morning**
“Damien, you need to forgive your dad.” Ciara told him as she came into the room.
“Forgive, the woman is dead.” He said spite fully.
“All are in the past now.” Ciara said.
“He already left.” She said.
He sighed and sat down.
