Alpha Xander: His Contracted Luna

Faye had a mind of her own, “Going against the warning of an Alpha would lead to a wolf being cast out of the pack. And when that happens, word will spread of the wolf’s misdeeds and insolence. No other pack would take them in. They would be helpless, weak and easily meet their end when crossing paths with a bloodsucker,” she tarried in her thoughts.

She had to let go of her conceit if she wanted to get in with Catherine. “I will wine and dine with that mundane being if I have to,” she said. Faye rested her arms on the balcony watching Catherine walk alone in the courtyard.

“I will gain her trust,” She smirked. “Who does she think she is walking around like she owns the place?”

She walked back into her quarters and dropped flat on her mattress. A new bed stand had been restored. She smiled glaring at the ceiling when a thought dawned on her.

“The human has no ally or any friends among the pack,” she rolled her tongue and went on, “I could lean in with an emotional deceit of course. Maybe show her a thing or two about what being a Luna –the female alpha deals with. Nah… What am I saying?” she ran her fingers on her hairline.

“-she doesn’t even have the gene,” She scoffed. No one will respect her but with my influence it might as well fall in place,” she bites her lower lip.

“She wouldn’t trust so easily so I could stick out my neck for her a few solid times and get hurt in the process on purpose,” she sneered.

“No doubt, just when a sliver of trust builds, I’ll apologize for holding a grudge and come out saying I was petty and blinded by love blah, blah, blah…,” she railed on, “A chance after that, if we’re alone I’ll give her a long painful death. Her wailing would bring joy to my ears. In the end I’ll have one of the betas loyal to the cause take the fall.”

Catherine was out to get some fresh. She felt suffocated in the brooding company of werewolves. Her mind was clouded with silly thoughts of running away, but that would be futile.

“They are beyond human, and Xander… he-he just wants what he wants by any means,” she snorted. “If I don’t oblige…” She sighed, “I’ll be charged with drunk driving and the destroyer of lives-murder.”

“-that’s a life sentence for sure.”

She had no choice but to reconsider Xander’s contract.

She sat by the fountain and admired her features in the sparkling water, “These furry demons could pop out anywhere and rip my head off,” she cowered.

“I shoulda just went home like a normal person that night,” she said. “Drowning my sorrows in the four walls of my apartment,” she thought to herself.

A droplet from the sky set a ripple in the fountain water, wavering her reflection.

Wolfs howled from a distance.

Her forehead furrowed, “I better take shelter before this gets any weirder,” she sped into the building holding her hands above her head.

A rush of rain came pouring down in the courtyard.

She settled in and took off her top in the cloakroom.

“Wow! Someone has a nice body,” Faye crept from behind.

Catherine is spooked and felt unsafe. She wrapped her arms round her bare chest, shivering.

“Please don’t hurt me,” She yelped.

“Come on I wouldn’t hurt you,” Faye smirked. “It’s just us don’t fret.

She moved closer to Catherine. She raised her hand in the air and pulls down a sweatshirt from a pile hung in the cloakroom.

“Go on… get cozy,” Faye said. “Okay I won’t look.”

Faye turned around and smiled.

Catherine got in the sweatshirt hastily and went the other way to evade Faye.

A male beta appeared before her.

“Faye,” Catherine gulped with fear. “I don’t want any trouble.”

“You know what… It’s about time,” Faye’s eyes widened.

“For what?” She asked fearfully

“And that’s Jackson by the way,” Faye said. “Say hi Jackson,”

“Hi,” Jackson said smiling boldly at Catherine.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Faye took Catherine by the hand with a gentle touch. She dragged her to the sofa, next to Jackson.

Faye got up walking to the cellar, “I know this is very random,” she said. “Let’s talk it over with a drink shall we?”

Catherine didn’t flinch, she had her eyes on the burning embers of the furnace, scared of what Faye might be up to. And this Jackson guy had his eyes peeled on Catherine.

Catherine had no choice but to take a sip of the drink offered to her. Moments later, dizziness kicked in and everything after that was a blur.

Faye let in some of the other betas to have their fun with Catherine and left. It wasn’t long when Xander abruptly walked in went from the rain. Faye exited swiftly, the other betas didn’t notice Xander.

He charged at them with full throttle.

She lay woke to her arms on a muscular build. She could feel the sheets rolling on her bare body. Immediately, she jumped off the bed and on crept behind the curtains to veil herself.

“What’s going on Xander?”

“Relax Catherine,”

“Don’t you tell me to relax-

“You wanna yell at me after saving you from the betas last night?”

Flashes of her being forced down on the sofa. Men hovering above her and touching her.

She snapped out of the thought, “Oh my God,” she whimpered.

“Be more careful with who you hang around with,” he warned. “Most especially, Faye.”

She still wondered what went on with her and Xander last night. Her face consorted, “And you last night?”

“Don’t point fingers at me,” he said. “You came on to me even though I didn’t want to.”

“You took advantage of me didn’t you?” she scoffed. “Pervert!”

“I didn’t touch you,” he said. “You got naked and slept off. I swear I didn’t touch you.”

A beta came running to meet Faye in her quarters. He looked bloodied and barely walking alright.

“He took us all out last night,” he said.

“Well better luck next time,” Faye scowled.

“I’m sorry,” he pleaded. “Jackson got burnt, really bad.”

Faye fell silent shortly and squinted her eyes, “It’s only a matter of time before I have my way with her.”

“-have the guys know of what I’m about to tell you, and this time don’t disappoint
