I Am The Luna

“Really? What did he say?” Jai asks.

“Let’s discuss that when you return,” Sebastian says.

I nod “Alright then, let’s head out now, it’s almost time.” I say, glancing at my watch.

“Take care of yourself,” Sebastian says. I nod as he bends down, kissing my cheek fleetingly before he steps back.

Our eyes meet and I give him a smile, wondering when did I become so clingy again?

“Stop here,” I say to Jai.

“Right, this place is anything but safe,” Jai mutters.

“We’re prepared. My men are staked all around. I had a feeling they’d watch your pack, so I had mine put in place.” Atticus says, as he fixes his jacket and I see the glint of a gun.

“Smart move,” Jai says.

“I don’t know if it’s a smart move.” I frown.

“Might have been partially Sebastian’s idea.” He admits reluctantly, making me shake my head.

“Well, remember, no violence,” I warn them.

Atticus looks over at me as I’m sitting in the back. “I’ll follow your command.” He winks.

“Right let’s get out,” Jai mutters. “You sure they won’t fuck up the car?”

“I don’t think so, but it doesn’t matter. We aren’t returning in this one.” I

murmur as he

opens the door.

“Sebastian’s idea?” Jai says.

“Mine actually, since he was being so paranoid,” I say as we get out, lock the car doors and head to the same spot where I had met Olivan and the other two wolves

last time.

There’s silence all around but I’m paying attention, honing in on everything

around me, trying to feel and hear for any change in the vibrations beneath us or our surroundings.

I can smell others around. They aren’t close, but people are nearby…

I give the boys a small nod as we step into the clearing and stand back–to–back.

“Alpha Olivan?!” I call out.

There’s silence for a few moments before I hear a rustle in the trees, and we all turn as Olivan steps out of the trees with two men who I am certain were the two wolves from last time.

They don’t look impressed, their eyes sharp as they assess us.

“Alpha Zaia, what a surprise I had thought perhaps you would change your mind.” He smiles, but there’s a distrusting glint in his eyes as he looks at Jai and Atticus. “I didn’t know you were bringing company.”

“Oh, I have brought Alpha Atticus, who is also part of the Sublime Triquetra and my Beta, Jai, in hopes that you understand what I am trying to do. So together we can discuss our views and what we want for this potential alliance.” I say.

“If we want an alliance,” Olivan says, taking me by surprise, but I keep my emotions hidden.

“Well, as I Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

exchanged, potential alliance. I told you before, that I am willing to do an

exchange.” I remind him firmly.

“Of course, let’s go somewhere a little private so we can discuss the terms and what benefits it would bring for both parties,” he says, motioning for me to

follow.

“Well, I would like to request if we…” I trail off, knowing that if I did just that…it would do nothing but cause more hostility between us.

“Yes?” Olivan asks, almost as if expecting me to refuse.

“Say it.” Jai murmurs.

“I would like to request we move quickly. There’s plenty to discuss.” I say instead. with a small smile.

Atticus looks down at me, frowning, clearly not happy with the decision I’ve made.

“Red…”

“Then let’s go.” Olivan smiles as he motions me over.

I follow him, and we step into the thick trees. The moonlight disappears, and we are blanketed by darkness, but it doesn’t bother me.

Not anymore. I can see perfectly, and I can sense the people who are hidden out of sight.

“I am placing my faith in you, Alpha Olivan. We are even entering your forest alone, yet you have men stationed at every corner…” I say with a smile, my eyes glimmering as I let my aura out.
