I Am The Luna (Moonlight Muse) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 0197
“My husband was, but he currently handed me the title, as I am Blood Born…” I’m not sure if that was smart, but they clearly are more in tune with their wolves… would they know about the Blood Born?
A flicker of surprise crosses his face and I turn sideways, lifting my shirt and showing them the symbol on the side of my breast before I pull it down again.
“No wonder you are so strong.”
“I… can we talk?” I ask.
“Isn’t that what we are doing?”
“I mean somewhere proper. There are questions I have, things I need to learn and would like to learn from you. I have been under the impression that rogues are evil killers and are dangerous, but I don’t think that narrative is correct-”
“It is. We are killers.”
“But I don’t think you are evil,” I say firmly.
He’s analysing me, his eyes looking over me slowly but it’s not in a lewd way but more as if he’s trying to assess me or what I’m saying.
“Why do you wish to talk to us?” he asks.
“Because I want to unite our kind, those who-”
“Our kind? You mean those who consider themselves werewolves, but are pretty much measly humans?” He scoffs. “We want nothing to do with the likes of them. They may think that they are superior and call us rogues. But we are the true packs, we are the true alphas! In what way are your so-called ways even right?”

He has a point… “I know… and it’s why I want them to realise that being in touch with our wolf side is a blessing, to call them back to the path of our goddess. But I want your help to show them what they are missing.”
He throws back his head and laughs. “What they are missing? To
them, we are treated like dogs! Driven to the edge of the city, chased away from shops and schools. Why should we help those entitled, blinded humans? Yeah, right, why would we do that?”
“Because I can offer you something in return,” I say quietly.
His eyes darken as he closes the gap between us, balling his fists.” The only reason I am tolerating you is because you are a shifter, a true one, but don’t think I can be bribed or brought.” He snarls venomously. I can sense his aura and I smile slightly. He’s a leader…
I stand my ground. “I don’t want to buy you, but one Alpha to another, I know how important the care of those under us is. I can offer you land, your own pack territory, and recognition.” He opens his mouth to speak, but I raise a finger before continuing.
“Let me finish first, please. These are not things I will give you, but something that is your right. All I will be doing is offering you land in exchange for your help. You are helping me too. This is not buying you just a fair trade and, hopefully, an alliance.”
He’s calmed a little, and I cross my arms. “So, what do you say… Alpha … I didn’t get your name.”
“Olivan. Alpha Olivan.”
“Nice to meet you, Alpha Olivan. So, do we have a deal?” I ask.
He tilts his head, clenching his jaw, struggling hesitantly. “Very well, let’s discuss details first and if I’m on board with it all, then you have yourself a deal.”

“Excellent, I am honoured,” I say, offering my hand.
He raises an eyebrow. “Hmm, you are an excellent businesswoman, Alpha Zaia, but don’t get too confident yet.”
“Thank you.,” I say, although I know he didn’t really mean it as a compliment. “Then I hope this deal between us proves profitable.”
“Amen to that. The goddess is our witness.”
“That she is,” he says, finally accepting my hand. His grip is strong, as if testing my strength and I grip it back with strength, giving it a
crushing shake and he smiles in satisfaction.
“Three nights from now. Be here at this time and we will take you somewhere to talk.”
“Perfect,” I say.
He nods as we let go and I give the other two wolves a nod.
“I apologise for the injuries,” I add, making one of them growl – although it sounds almost like a grumble – before I turn, willing myself to shift.

Fear envelops me as I race back towards the territory, my heart clamouring violently.
By any chance, does this mean Sebastian is the final piece of the Sable Triquetra?
Please, Goddess, tell me that I am wrong!
But no matter how much I shake it off, the thought is clawing its way deeper and deeper into me and with it, the terrifying truth that maybe something could happen to Sebastian, consumes me.
Please don’t put us through more, Goddess, please…
I need to speak to Atticus. Now.
