CHAPTER 3- I Don’t Need A Weak Luna

Skylar

My heart raised a million per second as I walked away from Livie’s house. Livie was sure as hell the most beautiful girl I had ever met. Much more beautiful than Leah if I'm being honest. But she's nothing but an omega.

I could never be seen with someone so weak. It would ruin my reputation. Just looking at her for the past few months gets me hyped up. My wolf, Tate, keeps pestering me to claim her. But I can't.

For one, she's still under age, well, that is until today because she is turned eighteen today. But mostly, because I cannot have a weak Luna. I need someone who can help me strengthen this pack, not weaken it.

I can't deny that I'm extremely attracted to her, and I want her so bad. I was close to claiming her back there in her house, but I can't. I just... can't.

I stormed into the pack house on my way to my dad's office. "There you are. Baby, why didn't you tell me the good news?" mom says as she pulls me into a hug as I make it halfway through the corridor.

"What are you talking about, mom?"

"Don't play dumb with me. Leah told me that you and she made it official. I knew she was your mate, I just knew it." she says, clapping her hands. Leah smiled with her hands crossed over her chest.

I clenched my jaw, narrowing my eyebrows. She wasn't supposed to tell anyone yet; I had asked her to keep quiet until I became alpha tomorrow at the meeting.

I smiled, masquerading my anger, she'll have to deal with me later. "I wanted it to be a surprise. But I guess the cat is out of the bag now, isn't it?" I said, glancing at Leah. She lowered her head in shame, she knew I was pissed off.

"We have to tell your father. He is going to be so happy!"

"Luna? We have a little situation in the kitchen. I was wondering if you could please spare a minute?" The lead omega came to interrupt us.

She looks between us and I didn't mind letting her know it was ok. She smiles and grabs Leah's hand as they walk away with the omega. Mom and Leah have become inseparable. I was glad in a way, Leah can be clingy as fuck sometimes.

I ran my hands through my hair and sighed. Time to face my father and see what shenanigans we gotta deal with now.

Knowing the Primords are coming, it only meant one thing, there was trouble. They are the ones that protect our pack from bigger packs around us. Though our pack is tough, we are still outnumbered because we are a small pack. We lost almost half, if not more than half our members when we were invaded by a large pack of rogues years ago.

We have gradually prospered financially since then, and thanks to the Primords along with two other packs, the Crescent Moon and the Dark Moon pack, we have been getting back on our feet.

But, I can't deny that dad has managed our pack poorly. Most of our members are weak as fuck, and the high rankers have always tried to help me keep order. If it wasn't for us, dad is far too soft, and even if I am not alpha yet, they have all learned to respect and obey me more than they do him.

I sat on the chair next to my father across from Alpha Morisson and his son who was soon to become alpha of this pack. I was annoyed already, and I have barely been here for a few minutes.

"I'm sure you have both had a long drive out here, why don't we eat first, and we'll get to the meeting right after. Is that ok with you alpha?" he looks at my father with a smile.

Little did he know I had already taken over as alpha, dad chuckled and pats my shoulder making me look at him through my irritated mood.

Everyone in my pack already had their mates, including me. I was blessed with a gorgeous Luna, who happened to be my best friend since childhood. I made fun of my brother-in-law, and alpha of the Dark Moon pack for being mateless. I know it's cruel, especially since he's a few years older, and has not found his mate.

We like to taunt him and give him a hard time about it, saying that his blue balls are making him more irritable. Don't get me wrong, his pack is loaded with beautiful women, but he's been devoted to finding his mate and I know for a fact he's saving himself for her.

It was a vow that we made to ourselves and something our packs hold sacred.

"Kayden, honey. Alpha Morrison is talking to you. It's uncourteous to not answer, sweetie." my mom said, squeezing my hand softly as she reached across from dad.

Dad never goes anywhere without her, it's as if they were glued by the hip. I look towards them, clenching my jaw but softening it as I see mom smile. “Hurry the fuck up, bitch. I'm dying here.” I mindlink Alarick, hoping he arrives soon.

"It's fine with me," I reply looking out towards the corridor of the pack house. It was fairly small, just like most packs around here, but it oozed with glamor, evident they were trying to maintain the place.

"I'm sorry, but.. Am I... Missing something here?" Alpha Morrison asks dad, glancing between him and me.

"Not at all. My son is the alpha now, he took over almost six months ago. And he's doing a hell of a good job, may I say." Dad chuckles, slapping my shoulder once more.

"Oh, I... I'm glad to hear that." alpha Morrison says awkwardly. His son gives him an annoyed look, clenching his jaw.

I know for a fact he doesn't trust his son to take over. It's true, sometimes the new alphas get rattled up with their new title of authority. The feeling of the new power is too glorious for them.

But I have been training for this since I was a kid.

Dad made sure I attended every meeting and I did pack work with dad since I could remember. It's more of a privilege to serve our pack to us, rather than boss them around and treat them like shit. As I've heard from prying ears.

"And what about you, Skylar? I hear you're getting ready to take the lead in this pack. Are you excited and ready?" mom asks, making him clench his jaw as he gives his dad a bothered look.

"Ready as I'll ever be. I've only been waiting for the last eight months or so," he says sarcastically, looking at his dad.

The laughter of two women makes us turn. Luna Morrison and a girl with red hair and an extremely sparkly dress come in with their hands looped together.

"Darling, the food is ready to be served." Luna Morrison says going next to her husband and kissing his cheek as she sits next to him.

The girl with red hair and wearing too much perfume for my liking grabs Skylar's face and kisses him seductively, making me roll my eyes. I should have brought my wife, Molly with me.

Asher muffled laughter, "I bet you anything this girl is not his mate. She's another Melinda if you ask me." I can't help but laugh making everyone turn as Asher's mind links me.

I clear my throat apologizing as she sits giving me a seductive look. I fix myself in my seat, sitting upright and clearing my throat.

"She's definitely another Melinda." I link back to Asher and Chase making them chuckle, earning a warning look from my mom.

Melinda was a big gold digger who had come to visit our pack a few months ago. She went around following me and claiming to everyone that she was my chosen luna since I hadn't found my mate yet. I had to bring her back down to reality in a harsh way letting her know in front of everyone that Molly was my mate and our only Luna.

The omega's came in, cutting our conversation as they began to serve.

"Where is Livie? I thought I told the lead omega she was to serve tonight?" alpha Morrison says to one of the young girls making her look nervously towardthe other girls.

"Alpha Morrison, I apologize, she was not feeling well. The lead omega made her go home. She looked rather pale, and she fainted when we-"

"What do you mean? Is she ok?"Alpha Morrison asked, sounding genuinely concerned.

"Uggh, why do you care? She's fine if you ask me, it's just an excuse to not do her work. She looked fine, besides all the mess she made in the kitchen." Luna Morrison says, rolling her eyes.

I closed my eyes, pinching the bridge of my nose. I hate listening to personal quarrels inside other packs. But I especially disliked the shit that has been happening in this pack.

“That's inexcusable. I need her here, serving.” My dad, Alpha Morrison demands in his alpha tone making the omega flinch.

“I told her to go home. There are plenty of other omega's that can serve. Let's just eat, shall we?” I say, pointing to the omega's to start serving.

Dad looks at me bothered, but he shrugs it off, clearing his throat and giving the sign to the omega's to serve.

“Alpha Alarick will not be joining us for dinner, I see.” mom adds, making mom glance at her.

“No. Ricky had a few things to tend to. He will be here early tomorrow morning.” she replies smiling.

“Oh, well I guess I need to make sure we serve his favorite. What does he like?” she asks, making mom smile.

“Oh, Ricky is not picky. He likes everything. But if you want to be on his good side, bake him a nice pastry with a strong coffee. He will love that!” she adds, making dad and I chuckle.

Alpha Alarick, or Rick, as we all call him, has a big sweet tooth. He looks like he's always angry as fuck, and he's very serious. Takes his job very seriously, and doesn't take bull from anyone, but he's a sucker for sweet stuff.

If you want to be on his good side, get him a sweet pastry and a good cup of freshly brewed coffee.

“I'm taking care of a few more things in the office. I will be there early. Molly just texted, she's leaving with me as well.” I smiled as I read a text from Rick.

I was stocked. I knew my beautiful bride wouldn't stand being away from me for so long. I can't wait for tomorrow morning to see my wife and my best friend.
