Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

***********************

Claire’s POV

“Atlas, I will be getting rid of that good-for-nothing omega trash; she thinks she could just come from nowhere and reap from where she didn’t sow”, I said joyfully. My maids watched me as i was basking in happiness.

I asked one of my maids to get me one of the best wines in the little wine cellar in my chambers and a glass cup so I could drink to this victory.

My joy knew no bounds as I recalled everything that happened when my jewellery was found in Lena’s. I knew there was no way she could run away or escape from this.

The sight of Lena’s head rolling on the floor of the execution ground was like a turn-on for me. I took my glass of wine walked into the bathroom sat in the bathtub.

The excitement of the whole thing was just making me want to have sex. I called out to one of my maids; she came inside. I signalled her to come into the bathtub.

Just as she she stepped into the bathtub a message came.

“Milady, your father sends for you,” one of the maids said.

“Of for fuck sake” I lamented.

I told the maid I had called earlier to leave my sight while I washed up and got dressed to go see my dad.

Entering his chambers, I could see a smile on his face as well; my father, who is not one to easily display emotions, was shocked at the sudden Change.

But I knew this probably had to do with my defeat of Lena.

“Come here, my child”, he said.

I walked majestically to where he was, and he took my hands and kissed me. was surprised; at how happy he was to see that I finally put that trash in her place.

I was happy to see him this happy. I hugged him.

“Congratulations on defeating your obstacle, now you have nothing stopping you from being the Luna of this pack as you are meant to be”

“Thank you very much, Dad” I smiled.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Now you can also be the proud dad of the Luna once again,” I said, we both laughed.

He took a glass cup from the glass rack in the chambers and poured me a drink.

It’s been ages since I last saw my dad this happy. I think the last time I saw my dad this happy was when my mother was still alive. Oh, those loving times when Mom was still around. She was heavy with pregnancy when…..

FLASHBACK

On a very hot, sunny, beautiful morning centuries ago, mom was heavy with pregnancy, my little brother. Dad had come in to meet her for their daily dose of kisses and pecks as she was doing the laundry.

Little me was there assisting her and smiling at her. Our family was so bright and happy back then.

Mom would always tease me and say, “My Luna, what can your humble servants do for you?” I would laugh so hard whenever she said a thing like that.

Yes, you can say the Luna thing has been a childhood dream of not just me, but my mom’s wish, that I became the Luna of this pack.

The desire to become the Luna had been birthed from when I was still little. I walked toward my mom and placed my ears on her stomach so I could hear my cute little brother’s heartbeat move.

The sound of his heart was so soothing to my ears, it made my heart limp for joy. Just as we were enjoying the happiness and joy of the moment.

A message came to him from one of the Alpha’s guards

“Sir, the alpha sends for you right now, and it’s very urgent, t,” he said facing my father.

The atmosphere became tense as we began to wonder what was so urgent that could make the alpha send for him so early.

My dad didn’t want to go, because he was enjoying this time with his family. My dad had always loved to spend quality time with his family and he didn’t like anything interrupting that time.

My dad eventually left with the guard, and I was left with Mom that morning; we continued doing the laundry, and Mom was singing while working.

Mom had the best voice in the whole pack; she was referred to as the nightingale of our pack. I still dont know why I didn’t take after her with her voice.

About 1 hour later, we started hearing strange sounds, noise and shouts from around. At first, we thought it was just the little wolf playing and crying, but this wasn’t just any kind of cry. It was a wailing of sorrow.

I was about to go out to check for myself what was going on when Mom held me back, asking me to remain behind her and never leave her sight.

At this time, her eye colour had changed, and her wolf had awakened. I was still a lot younger I didn’t know how to control mine yet.

I slowly tiptoed at the back of my mom, asking

“Mom, what’s going on? Why’s your wolf out.”

“I can smell intruders, people of different species,” she said.

“Different species?” I asked

Mom didn’t reply; she went to where a wooden stick was and broke it into two, making sure the edges were sharp; I couldn’t quite understand what was going on until, not long after, a figure appeared just at the front of my mom.

It was very fast, and we couldn’t see from whence it came. yes, my mom was pregnant, but her combat skills were still intact. With wolf speed, she lifted the stick and stabbed the figure through its heart.

The figure evaporated and turned to Ash. I was shocked when I got to realise the kind of species that had invaded our town.

We kept on going, I kept following Mom at the back, and another one came, showcasing its fang, mom pushed me back inside the hut and then she threw a kick sending the vampire to the floor and then stabbing him with the stick, just as she was about coming back to meet me

Another appeared at her back and bit her on her neck. It all happened so fast before I could shout.

With tears in my eyes, I shouted Mom! This drew the attention of the vampire, who bit Mom, and he came into the hut. I didn’t know what happened next. All I knew was I woke up to blood on my hands and mouth with me in Dad’s arms.
