Alpha’s Surrogate Chapter 7

7. New Pack, New Life.

Kiara could see nothing but forest once the car had entered the Sirius Bright Pack’s territory after two hours of driving. They had been on the highway for quite a while but she could tell the driver had been afraid to drive slow. He had been driving so fast that Kiara had been afraid that they would get in an accident.

The beauty of the woods had made her feel alive again. Her sad tears had long since dried up, she had accepted that her life had altered the moment she entered Xavier’s pack land. No, actually her life had changed when the 6.3-foot-tall Alpha had appeared in her life, laying his green eyes on her. In the end, her father had served all ties to her. She could not imagine what he would have done if she had revealed that she planned to be an enemy’s surrogate. She only hoped that her sister and mother would do well in her absence.

She had attempted to ignore all the negative thoughts tumbling around in her head and concentrate on the present, but her anxiety only increased at the thought that the car would be approaching the pack house soon. Entering another pack’s territory was frightening enough, but the male sitting next to Kiara hadn’t said a single thing to her in the last two hours.

į It seemed ridiculous for her that she had done nothing other than look out the window the entire ride, while the big Alpha sitting next to her had been dead quiet! Was there even a way possible for him to say less to her? He had made the young female feel so uncomfortable that she had wanted to jump out of the speeding car. She never even glanced at him, but she could feel his gaze on her. Had it simply been her imagination, or was she being foolish due to her nervousness?

“Welcome to the Sirius Bright Pack, Luna,” Kaiden remarked with a warm smile. The entire time he had been glancing back at his Alpha and Luna through the mirror, found the new head couple of his pack

adorable. His excitement was so high that it could touch the

sky now that their pack had finally gotten a Luna.

“Thank you,” Kiara replied. When she noticed his grey eyes, she flushed. He was stunning! His curly hair drew attention to him. If there had been no Kaiden with her in the car, she would have already followed through on her plan to jump out of the moving car. Kaiden

had been chatting with her from time to time, introducing himself, talking to her about his mate, and just generally making the situation more comfortable for her. As for Xavier, most of the time he had been attending to some calls that seemed like to be linked to his business, and for a while he had been messaging someone. Who had he been talking to? He appeared to be quite invested. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

• “Did you explain everything to Jennifer?” Xavier inquired, slipping his phone back into his pocket.

“Yes, Alpha. As you ordered, no outsiders are present in the pack house, and no pack members will enter without permission,” Kaiden informed. Then the Alpha began messaging someone again, after Kaiden had received a simple nod for a response. Kiara wondered what they were talking about. Why were other pack members not allowed in the pack house right now?

“Alpha does not want any males seeing the Luna,” the Beta chimed in. Kiara looked at Xavier, whose irritated eyes were drawn to his

big mouth Beta.

It was already late in the evening, and Xavier had no plans to introduce Kiara to the other pack members at this time. He was fully

aware of how his pack members’ would react to the news of his new Luna, with nothing but pure joy and eagerness. If they found out that she was his chosen mate for whom they had been waiting

impatiently, none of them would leave her alone the entire night. They

will never stop talking about and to her. Their curiosity would only irritate him, so he had ordered Kaiden to ask Jennifer to send the

other pack members away before they arrived. After a hard day of battles and arguments, all Xavier wanted was some beer, food, and a relaxing bath. Kaiden was met with an enraged growl from his Alpha. The poor driver flinched as the Omega had not dared to bear the.

Alpha’s wrath but Kaiden covered his mouth with his hand.

· “Oops! Did I say that aloud?” He acted surprised. Xavier’s hand stretched out to slap the back of the brown-haired male’s head. How

dare he act smart?!

“Hey! Don’t siap me in front of Luna,” he rubbed his head and grumbled. Kiara couldn’t keep herself from laughing. Were these the

same bloodthirsty males who had almost slaughtered her pack and family? Kaira’s little melodious giggle had drawn the driver’s

attention, Kaiden smiled proudly as he had successfully gotten Kiara to giggle.

female once again. Kaiden’s remark had been enough to silence Kaira.

“Please call me, Kiara,” she made a courteous request. She hadn’t appreciated the fact that he kept calling her Luna. She was merely a surrogate, and he would find that out shortly because he was the Beta.

“How can I dare?” He looked surprised. Confused, Kaiden looked back at Xavier and Kiara. Why would she make such a request?

Kiara merely smiled a bit at Kiaden’s puzzled expression, wondering why Xavier hadn’t asked Kiaden to call her by her name exclusively.

She had kept a close eye on him. He’d been digging a large, scorching hole in her face yet again. If he continued on with this habit she’d find him creepy, she’d already been unnerved by his sudden close proximity and kiss. He continually stared at her as if she were prey he were about to pounce on.

As she moved her head back towards the window to evade his gaze, she noticed a massive Pack house. They had arrived at the Sirius.

Bright pack house! As they got closer to this huge white home, its beauty grew more and more appealing. She now understood why they were one of the wealthiest packs. Compared to this one, the Pack house she had grown up in was a doll house. She had become lost in her own thoughts. So when Xavier opened the door for her, she realized that the car had stopped and everyone had gotten out. How quickly had he moved?

· “Let’s go,” he said, holding out his right hand to her, which surprised her. He hadn’t spoken to her for some time, in all honesty he

had treated her as if she were invisible. Yet now he was extending his hand to her like Prince Charming? What was the matter with him?

His politeness seemed almost menacing.

Kaiden had a broad smile on his face, which she observed while holding Xavier’s hand. When she felt that Xavier’s hand was unusually warm, she couldn’t help but gaze back up at him. This warmth was so

alluring. How had that happened? Perhaps her worry and his weird conduct had made her entire body chilled.

The car door closed behind her, but the sound had not reached Kiara’s ears because she flinched as he placed his arm around her waist. Her eyes widened in astonishment as she looked at him. What in the world was he doing? She was only his surrogate, wasn’t she? So, what was the point of all this touching?

“Let’s go inside,” Xavier began, leading the panicked woman into the pack house. Kiara maintained her regular calm demeanor, but

she sensed the authority in his touch. It seemed as though he had every right to touch her as he pleased. She lifted her eyes up while he guided her steps. Why had she been letting him touch her?

“Because people are watching us,” Xavier studied her face. Kiara flushed and averted her gaze. Could this male be a mind

reader?

Jennifer had cleared the path and pack house for them, just as Xavier had instructed. There was no one around to see Kiara, other the pack members who had joined him on the attack on the Ardara Moon Pack who had stepped out of other cars behind them and were

watching their Alpha and Luna. Down to their every small movement and expression. Everyone’s gaze had been drawn to the two of them, particularly Xavier’s tender embrace of their lovely Luna. They had not been told by anybody about Kiara because Xavier would introduce her to the pack at a later time, but they couldn’t wrap their heads around the fact that a female was so close to Xavier and he hadn’t pushed her away, instead his hold appeared rather possessive. He had drawn her in as close as he could. Was he frightened that someone might steal her?

Kiara was captivated by the beauty of the mansion as she entered the luxuriously pack house through the main entrance after traversing a few stairs. She hadn’t estimated, yet everything around her was pricey. Each window in the home was huge and spacious.

Despite the offered illumination, the moonlight entered the living room. Large and one-of-a-kind artworks adorned the walls, while the ceramic and crystal vases were odd yet appealing. She resolved to herself that she would never pass by these expensive and lovely items again as it would be nearly impossible for her to pay recompense for their destruction. Though she had been puzzled as to why there had been no family photographs in the house.

‘Did he live alone?’ Did that imply he and I would be alone in this huge mansion?’

Kiara’s heart had been racing so fast. Well it would not change anything between them but still she had inquired about his family before agreeing to this deal. He knew practically

everything about her family and life, yet he was still a mystery to her.

Xavier allowed her to take baby steps since she was quite anxious. He could feel her chilled body pressed against his heated one. Had Karden walked behind them, and the Alpha beside her had not bothered to let go of her waist. Why weren’t there any maids? She had

only seen the males of the group up until now. Where had all the females gone? Kiara’s eyes roamed around, knowing that now this was her new life, a new pack.

“Kaiden!” Out of nowhere, a woman leapt onto kaiden for a kiss. Kiara looked over to find a tall, blonde beauty who was sharing a heated kiss with Kaiden.

“I missed you so much!” She moaned into his mouth. Their lustful exchange had heated the atmosphere in the entryway. Kiara felt shy as she looked at the couple. She recognised the blonde as Kaiden’s mate that he had been talking about on the car ride here. She casted her gaze to the side,

where their expressionless Alpha stood. He had been surprised when he observed her flushed cheeks. If witnessing a single kiss could turn her tomato-red, what would happen if she observed a couple openly mating? It was a common

occurrence in this pack. Every member was free to live their lives as they saw fit.

“Kaiden, you have all night to love your mate. Or you can just stay here but I am leaving,” Xavier remarked, causing Kaiden topanic.

“No Alpha. Wait for me. I will accompany you,” he broke the kiss, whispering sorry into his mate’s ear as he promised to continue

what they had started later that night. No matter what he wanted, he had to go with Xavier at the moment. He let go of Jennifer and

went over to Xavier and Kiara.

“Alpha,” she bowed her head to Xavier, then noticed a young female who had been watching them.

“Ohh, we have a guest. Who is she?” Jennifer’s eyes examined Kiara from head to toe. Kiara was relieved that she had changed into a

nice outfit before leaving the Ardara Moon Pack. Her clothes were not brand new, but they had not been worn thin or ripped like what she had been wearing when she had met Xavier.

“This is Kiara, my Luna,” Xavier introduced Kiara, but Jennifer jumped in delight before he could finish.

“Oh my God! Our Luna?!!” She nearly screamed, getting closer to her.

“How dare you hide this from me?” Jennifer narrowed her eyes at her mate.

“I wanted to surprise you,” Kaiden decided to act cute to save himself from his mate’s displeasure, but she immediately brushed his attempt at cuteness aside.

“I should have already realized that the Alpha had been planning to bring our Luna home. She is so beautiful,” Jennifer’s black eyes twinkled with admiration. Kiara blushed further from her inspection rather than from her compliment. Had she not been overly enamored? Kiara had never felt so gorgeous in her life. She wore little makeup, her hair was a bit unkempt and down, and compared to Kiara’s clothes, the Beta female wore costly clothes even if they were her ordinary ones. She had a big belly. She was pregnant!

“I am Kaiden’s mate, Jennifer. You can call me Jen, Luna!” She grinned as her gaze flicked back and forth between Kiara and Xavier.

No wonder he had found this beauty and had wanted to hide her from everyone. He would need to answer countless questions.The Alpha

made a bored expression. He knew that teasing and poking from his Betas and friends was coming his way.

“Jennifer, I have to leave right now, I am leaving her in your hands. Can you show her to the room and take care of dinner?”

“Of course, I can do that! Please don’t worry. I will take care of the Luna,” she responded with zeal, knowing that she would soon be ready to fulfill her role as the Beta female. Her whole obligation was to the Luna, and the Pack had lacked, but with Kiara’s debut Jennifer

finally felt her presence in this pack had been solidified.

Let me know right away if something happens,’ before exiting the pack house, Xavier mind linked Jennifer. Kiara watched the Alpha

and Beta walk away, wondering where they were heading at this hour in the evening.

“Umm,” Jennifer’s throat cleared, drawing Kiara’s attention.

“The Alpha will come back to you soon, Luna”

“I didn’t say anything!” Kaira exclaimed in shock. Where had she gotten the wrong idea?

“Words are useless when your eyes speak,” she gave Kaira a sly grin.

“No! You have it all wrong,” she argued, but Jennifer just laughed.

“Let’s go. Your room is upstairs,” Jennifer took up her bag as she led the way up the steps, but Kiara came to a halt.

to climb.

“It’s all right, Luna. It’s not heavy, plus it’s my responsibility as the Beta to help you in this way,”Jennifer insisted on reclaiming the

bag.

“Then it is my obligation as the Luna to look after my Beta’s health,” Kiara insisted with a smile, walking towards the chamber that

Jennifer had been taking her to. Jennifer quietly admired Kaira, her kindness had surprised her. Jennifer had been drawn to her

character more than to her appearance.

“This is the room,” Jennifer pushed open the door. Kiara had only taken two steps in before coming to a halt when she realized she

was in Xavier’s room. The entire area was saturated in that same appealing aroma of his.

“Why did you bring me to the Alpha’s room?” She asked in panic.

“You are the Luna, so you will be staying with the Alpha, right?” Jennifer let out a little chuckle.

“Yeah,” Kiara gave her a tight smile. But she was afraid of how he would react when he learnt that she had stepped into his room

without his permission. Maybe he had planned for her to stay in another room.

“Luna…”

“Call me Kiara,” she interrupted Jennifer.

“Umm, I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Jennifer hesitated, biting her lip. What would happen when Xavier heard her using Kiara’s

given name?

“Why not when I am allowing you to,” Kiara argued.

“Still….”

“You are around my sister’s age and I want the two of us to be friends. So why not call each other by our names rather than titles? It

will feel more comfortable,” Kiara suggested, which brought a big smile on Jennifer’s face when she realized that the Luna wanted to

become her friend.

“Sure! Luna… I mean Kiara,” both of the females giggled as they continued talking.

“How far along are you?” Kiara wondered. Her belly looked quite large.

“I just started my eighth month,” Jennifer rubbed her hand lovingly over her belly. Any observer could see that she was excited for

her baby.

“I’m sure you and Kaiden are excited.”

“How old are you, Kiara?” Jennifer went to open the window of the room that allowed in some fresh air with the cool

moonlight.

“I am 17 but in 2 days I will be 18,” she explained.

“Wow, you are so young. The Alpha must have fallen in love with you at first sight. I am sure,” Jennifer poked at Kiara with a smirk.

Had it been love at first sight? Kiara was confused. Would the male who had come to annihilate her pack have fallen in love with her? It

was simply impossible. Regardless of how breathtakingly handsome he was, she couldn’t believe it. In any case, she was fully aware of the

reality behind her being the Luna and his Chosen Mate. She pushed the subject aside with a smile as she turned to face the room’s.

king-sized bed. The bedspread appeared to be smooth and soft. She figured if she sat on it, he’d chastise her so she sat on the sofa.

“The food will be ready in no time, until then you can place your clothes in the cupboard. If you want, I can help you.” Jennifer handed Kiara’s luggage over to her. Kiara liked the idea as she was bored. It would also allow her to change clothes, but she wanted to consult with Xavier first before unpacking. Was she supposed to spend the night in his room? She began to open her luggage, but she stopped when she realized that Jennifer would see the state of her old clothing.

“I’ll put my stuff away later.” Kiara smiled at her a little, but Jennifer noticed she had closed the zip back up. It had made her feel uneasy exposing her clothing. She’d also observed that everything she was wearing was outdated and worn thin.

“As you wish, but later we will go shopping.”

“Shopping?” Kiara was confused.

“Yes, don’t you want to spend your mate’s money and annoy him until his message box is filled with messages? I do it all the time,”

had earned himself another punishment that she had intended to deliver soon.

“That’s something I’m not sure about. But I’m fine with what I have right now. I’ve never been demanding since I was a child, therefore I can live my life with two sets of clothes,” Kiara admitted with a chuckle.

C

“Then what about shopping?” Jennifer was astounded. How could this female refuse to go shopping?

“Don’t worry, I promise I’ll accompany you, but I don’t need anything really,” she answered, with a smile. She only had her savings

and the money that her mother and Adira had provided her with. She had already made ihe wise decision to spend her money entirely on her studies and stationery. She would need to purchase books for next semester as well as a smartphone for online courses. She used to use Adira’s smartphone as her phone only had a keypad, so she couldn’t attend her online classes with it. But she couldn’t afford a laptop so beggars couldn’t be choosers.

“What pack are you from?” Jennifer inquired, perplexed. Kiara’s shabby attire was inexpensive, but her speech revealed that she had been raised in a good family. Despite her thinness, she had the beauty and delicate skin of a princess. This young female was surely an Alpha’s daughter.

“Ardara Moon Pack,” Kiara hesitated a little before answering, since she knew that every pack member of Sirius Bright was aware of

their pack adversary and the attack they had carried out on her old pack a few hours earlier.

“What? Ardara Moon Pack?” Jennifer frowned.

“Are you Alpha Sawyer’s daughter?” She asked. Kiara gave a nod. Jennifer’s eyes widened as her jaw dropped upon learning that the Alpha had selected a mate from their enemy pack that they were supposed to exterminate.

“How dare you to step foot into our pack!” With a furious snarl, an older female entered the room. Kiara sprang up from the sofa

right away. The female appeared to be around her mother’s age, her eyes were swollen and red from crying for quite some time. But her

eyes were also filled with hatred, rage, and vengeance towards the young female who was still perplexed by her behavior.

“How dare you give me this innocent look!” The older female shrieked, then charged at Kiara. She had discovered she was Alpha

Sawyer’s daughter when passing by the room.

“Margaret, you can’t do this. She is our Luna,” Jennifer leapt between Kiara and Margaret the moment she recognised that the older

female’s rage could not be contained and that she had every intention of harming Kiara. At the same time, Jennifer had mind linked

Xavier about the situation. She had been in charge of Kiara’s safety while Xavier was not around.

“What? The Luna of this pack?!” Margaret exclaimed.

“Yes, Alpha Xavier’s mate,” Jennifer confirmed.

“How could Xavier choose this female as his mate?” Margaret’s eyes watered. Jennifer could only lower her eyes.

“But her brother raped and killed my daughter!!” She screeched frantically, unable to believe that Xavier would take a murderer’s

sister as a mate. Kiara’s eyes widened while her entire body turned cold as ice. She had not expected to encounter the mother of the

blind female. She now understood why Margaret was so enraged by her mere presence in the pack house. She wished to murder Kiara

just like Lewis had done to her innocent blind daughter. Jennifer tried to block her way again with all her might, but Kiara stopped

her.

: “Don’t stop her, you can move out of the way,” Kaira took Jennifer’s hand in hers, guiding her away gently. Margaret was out of her mind, if she pushed Jennifer away her child might be in danger.

“You can say whatever you want,” Kiara told Margaret, who had been taking deep, long angry breaths like a bull.

“No,” Jennifer trembled as the older female moved closer to the Luna, but she couldn’t defy Kiara’s orders.

“Margaret, the Alpha has mind linked me right now. He has given orders that you can’t touch the Luna. You have been asked to leave the room as soon as possible,” Jennifer delivered Xavier’s message quickly before it was late.

“You should be ashamed!” Margaret scowled at Kiara, completely disregarding Jennifer. She knew she couldn’t raise a hand to Kiara,

but she could say whatever she wished at this moment.

“Your brother killed my daughter and you have entered this pack as Xavier’s mate. I loathe you and refuse to accept you as my Luna.”

Margaret’s remarks were like poison darts that Kiara took without arguing or saying a word. Even though she had been severely affected

“I am sorry,” with a bow, she expressed her regret. Even if it wasn’t enough, she nevertheless apologized. The karma for Lewis’ actions was always going to haunt her, she had to learn to accept that. She had to be ready to face it.

“Like I said, shame on you! You should not even dare to look me in the eyes! You would not even risk looking into Xavier’s eyes if you

were truly sorry!” Margaret turned to leave while growling with a bloodthirsty glare. She stormed out of the room then drove away from the Pack house. She had only returned to gather some of her belongings.

“Kiara, are you okay?” Jennifer questioned. She had a sorrowful expression on her face since she hadn’t helped her. She had been in

a dilemma as Margaret’s rage was understandable. Nobody had anticipated that Kiara would be the enemy’s daughter. Kiara took a deep

breath, as she tried to forget all the insults and hateful glares.

“I am fine…” as she held back her tears.

“What happened here!” With a growi, Xavier strode into the room. Jennifer cringed at the enraged Alpha. Had he not been at the airport? What prompted him to return so quickly? Kiara gasped, perplexed at seeing his enraged wolf eyes, as if he’d wished to slaughter

someone. Why was he so furious?
