Alpha's Blind Luna novel Chapter 63

“No Dad, she isn’t. Hector and Pipsqueak have been working nearly non-stop trying to find her but they aren’t able to grasp much. We don’t have a lead or anything. The first time Zeke felt anything was three days ago, and she was removed from the pack. It does mean she is still alive but now we don’t have a connection to her.”

Logan sighed. “Neither do I.”

“Well, maybe you could have helped four months ago when we told you she was missing in the first fucking place.” Morgan grumbled.

“Auri goes ‘missing’ all the time. I didn’t think…”

Vale balked and his mouth dropped open. “Are you kidding me? We told you, explicitly, that the BloodHunter Coven somehow has been rebuilt. That they were the ones who had her and you thought she was on a fucking vacation? She traded her life for my mates. The least you could have done was come and help!”

Logan looked up at Vale. “You found your mate? Did you make her Luna?”

I winced but Vale held my hand tighter. “Alpha Ezekiel is my mate, Dad. He currently is Alpha of the Golden Moon pack. I’m still working through High Council stuff right now and I know the pack is in good hands.”

Looking up at Vale, he was smiling down at me. He gave me a peck on my forehead and I smiled. His smile widened when he realized I didn’t flinch away.

“An Alpha? You’re mated to an Alpha?” You could hear the disbelief in Logan’s voice.

“Yes, Dad. I am. Now, normally, I would say you are welcome to stay in the pack house, but you’re not. We can show you to one of the bed and breakfasts in town where you can stay but I don’t want you causing issues.”

Logan looked appalled. “I am your father and an Alpha. You would just send me to the town?”

“I would if you’re just going to create problems in my pack house. Mom isn’t here and we don’t know when we are going to be able to find her. You obviously aren’t here to help and therefore there is no reason for you to be here.” Vale stood up, pulling me with him. “Bryan, if you wouldn’t mind escorting him to town, if you two want to talk, you’re welcome to.”

Vale started to pull me away from the couch but I stopped him. Turning to Logan, I gave him a small smile. “It was a pleasure meeting you, Alpha Logan. I apologize for the greeting in my pack house. We have been on edge recently and have received some information that a certain leader of the BloodHunter coven who we recently believed was dead…isn’t. So everyone is a bit wary.”

Vale’s confusion came over the bond and I could see Bryan visibly stiffen. But I was watching Logan’s face, for anything that might give him away. Apparently, he wasn’t good at keeping a poker face because the color drained from his face. It was all the confirmation I needed. Vale started to tug again and I let him lead me away.

“Again, nice meeting you! The winery is especially nice this time of year!” I called back as Vale pulled me up the stairs and into our room.

Quietly, he shut the door behind his and his eyes narrowed. “What was that?”

“Confirmation.” I took a breath, opening up the mind link. 'Hector?'

'Yes, Alpha?'

'Let’s just say I got as much as a confirmation as I think we are going to get for your theory. Please move forward with the understanding of who it is we are dealing with.'

There was a growl when the mind link cut off. I winced as there were multiple crashes happening down the hall. Vale looked from me to the door with a raised eyebrow.

“Everything okay?”

I sighed. “No, but it might be. We will have to see how it goes.”

“You know, I haven’t been this close to you in months.” He wasn’t kidding. Our chests were almost touching and I looked up at him. Vale’s hand trailed my skin, slowly, his eyes locked with mine. My chest was heaving, his lust rolling over me in waves through our bond. Both his hands took hold of my hips.

“I’ve never been so jealous of my Grandpa getting to spar with you like that. It’s enough to drive me crazy.” Vale purred in my ear.

I took a deep breath. “Vale, I…”

Vale hushed me. “I know. You tell me when to stop. When it hurts. When it’s too much. I just…I need you. You’ve been so close and yet so far.”

His lips brushed my shoulder and he kissed my mark. My heart sped up and I took hold of his hips, holding on for dear life. As though it would keep my knees from buckling or my hold on my sanity. I missed him just as much but it was always too much. This was the first time I hadn’t had flashbacks. That I hadn’t flinched away from him.

I shivered as his tongue brushed my collarbone. His teeth grazed the bone before nipping at the skin. A moan tore from me and I felt my back arch.

“Vale, I need to shower. I’m…”

“You taste divine. You make me want to bury myself into you.”
