Before I could answer though Hannah came at me. And oh I wanted to fight back this time.
I let it happen to me, so that David could see that I was the innocent one. Hannah grabbed
my hair, which I had tied up in a ponytail. She used my hair to pull me closer to her and
raised her fist ready to hit me. For a second I wondered how far David would let this get
before he would intervene. Or if he would intervene at all.
But before her fist connected with my face, David stepped between us.
“ENOUGHH, Hannah I do not care for your opinion on Ayla, she is my mate she will be your
Luna. You will respect her” he growled at her as I winked at her.
David couldn’t see but Hannah did and she was fuming, honestly, this was the most
entertainment I had since I got here.
“Is she now David, do you not know what happened yesterday? Did you not feel it?”
Hannah countered David’s anger.
She wasn’t scared or upset just thoroughly annoyed. It was funny they had both rejected
their first mates to be together. They obviously had, the entire pack knew and they had
whispered about Hannah and not me becoming their new Luna. Which was met with
mixed feelings. From what I gathered they started sleeping together from the first second
David rejected me. People bullied me with it, and it used to be heartbreaking. I got over it
and apparently they did too.
Because before David could introduce Hannah as his Luna. Hannah was looking for bigger
and better things in life. She must really get tired of playing my second violin. If she
wasn’t such a vile and vicous bi tch maybe I would have pitied her. Now I just hated her
guts, as she

did mine so we were even in that regard. After all the abuse I never guessed there would

When she was going back and forth between David and waiting to see when Griffin would
reject me. David had started rethinking his choice of rejecting me. Which all led to him
killing his parents and me getting kidnapped. While he was arguing with me like an old
mated couple, hell I felt more like their pup than the mate of either of them.
And like a small pup, I kept quiet, not because I feared them. No, I was right about the fact
that something happened. Hannah seemed eager to remind David who in turn seemed to
be deadset on keeping that information from me. The more he kept it from me the more I
wanted to know. The two of them had entered a screaming match. The second I would so
much as move either one of them if not both would notice me. Blowing my chance of
overhearing whatever happened at the Blood Moon pack.
Hannah said she doubted the chance of me becoming her Luna because of it but that
could be everything. Griffin overtaking the Blood Moon pack could be a reason. The
council interfering with just all about everything could be a wrench in the works. Hell even
me not accepting him would in the end f uck everything up for David.
No matter how many mistakes the Moon Goddess made, because I was sure she was
flawed like all of us. Her making sure that you could only complete the mating process as
both of the partners agreed was some solid thinking. It gave me a sense of safety, it
meant David had to try for me too, which I could use for my benefit. It also meant he could
not mate with me. Because of how strong our matebond had gotten over time I feared
that could be the end of Griffin.
“No, Hannah, not today and that is my final say. I am still your Alpha no matter what
happened and as such you will listen to me.” David must have used his Alpha voice.

whispered “Yes, Alpha” and she walked away,
David did not speak about what just happened and I was smart enough to keep my mouth
shut too. I was unsure what to do next, I used to think I knew who David was. What he
liked and what he would want me to do. But I learned the hard way that I had no idea who
David Birch really was. And I needed to act exactly how he wanted me to now more than
ever.
“Sit, let’s talk about what just happened,” He said and his tone was
hard to read.
I decided I needed to show my submission, most Alpha’s would not want their Luna to be
submissive to them. David however deemed women to be beneath him. Where with my
true mate I was his equal, David wanted me to be submissive to him. More of a maid than
a mate.
“I am sorry David, now our breakfast got cold, even if it was already lukewarm when
Hannah brought it here. I am so sorry she must have been tired from walking all the way
here. Only for you and her to get into a fight. When I know you are best friends” I stared at
my feet again.
I had come to find out that David liked feeling like I was too scared of him to look him in
the eyes. Now that I knew what to do, now that I had a plan to get out of this I was going
to. Whatever David needed to feel secure and like he was having power over me. I would
do until I could escape.
“She doesn’t have to walk far, she is just a petulant little bit ch, but that is not what is
what is bothering me” He exasperated.
I knew what was bothering him, this entire morning had been a s hit show, and now he
was having a cold breakfast. On top of whatever it was that had happened to the pack. All
I cared about was the fact that I knew more about where we were now. We could just walk

in less time than it took for our breakfast to cool down.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I wish I could just be with you at your home” I started careful to not mention the pack
even if it was. Or well should be because with what Hannah was talking about I wasn’t
sure about anything anymore.
“Oh is that so, I thought you didn’t love me anymore” Right away the cold, clipped tone
was back when David spoke.
This man had more mood swings than a pregnant she-wolf. It made me need to tread
extra carefully and it was honestly exhausting but I had to deal with it. Stroking his ego
might be a good idea, so I tried a new approach.
I sighed deeply before answering him. “I don’t know anymore David, I used to more than
anything. You know I wanted you to be my mate. And when I smelled it was you it felt like
a dream come through but you rejected me and stopped being my friend. Did you not
know what Hannah and her friends were doing to me?”
He didn’t answer me he was listening to me his arms crossed. I had forgotten he did that
and how much I hated it. Even when we were friends, even back when I was hoping he
would turn out to be my mate.
“Then Griffin found me, because Hannah made me, I needed to get away from the abuse. I
didn’t like him at first, but he was so good to me. Everything you never was, you would
never be. For most of my life, I would have never considered a man who wasn’t like you.
But with how much you hurt me how could I not? I thought I had gotten over you but when
I heard Hannah brag about the two of you having sex without protection I didn’t know
what to feel” I lied through my teeth, when he almost forced himself on to me he told me
he wouldn’t want protection convinced that wolves cannot get pregnant when not mated.

All I could do now was hope he was the same with Hannah, and that, it was the little detail
that would make him believe me. I didn’t even have a plan ready for when he would not
believe me, for when he used protection with Hanah.
