Alpha’s Regret-My Luna Has A Son

Looking down at her, she looked so frail, her skin pale, and I found it hard not to break down. Emily was always so bubbling and a chatterbox. Seeing her like this was heartbreaking. I prayed she woke up soon, prayed she would pull through this. I would even drink her terrible coffee. God, I wished I could be drinking that horrible coffee. I wouldn’t even complain if it meant she would come back to us.

We weren’t sure if she could hear us , but eventually , Zoe had to leave to help ” Marcus and Macey wanted to go home and check on Taylor . Sitting next to Emily , I held her hand , rubbing circles into the back of her hand . ” You hold on , Em . Benny needs you , ” I told her . Kissing her hand , I tucked her blankets around her and reluctantly left . I t was dark as I climbed into my car . It was the middle of the night , and I listened to the radio as I headed toward the old commune and to Emily’s caravan on the way home .

I was mentally and physically drained , and all I wanted to do was go home , see Valarian and crawl into bed beside my mate . The commune was all mud and puddles , the rough terrain a little slippery since the storm , yet I managed to navigate through to the back where Emily’s caravan was . Pulling up beside it , I got out . Using the key Officer Derrick gave me not long after she went missing , I unlocked the flimsy door . I stepped inside the tiny little place she shared with her son . Toys and stuffed bears sat on the bed they shared , a small Tv perched in the corner , and the walls were littered with Ben’s artwork .

I saw two jars of her special made coffee and chuckled . I see a blue duffle bag hanging on a hook o n the wall . I grab the bag , looking for clothes with her son’s scent on them before carefully bagging them , making sure not to taint them with my scent and hoping it would give Emily comfort . I tidied up a little before finding a picture of her and Ben taped to her fridge , both smiling as they stood out the front of the school . He was 9 years old , and her entire life , he was her world , and she was a good mum , quirky , but that’s what everyone loved about her , and no one loved her more than her son .

Emily worked her ass off , and her only dream was that her son would grow up and become part of a pack and have the opportunities the other pack kids had one day . We all wished that our kids would be a part of something bigger than us . That they would achieve more than us . It is what most parents dream of for their kids .

To give them more , watch them grow and succeed , knowing we got at least one thing right . Grabbing the picture , I put it in the bag for her when my phone starts ringing in my pocket . Valen’s name pops up on the screen . ” Where are you ? ” he says , his voice frantic , and his fear suddenly smashed m e through the bond . ” At Emily’s place , grabbing a few things for her room , I’m hoping something with Ben’s scent will help her hold on , ” I tell him . ” Head home now !

” What ? ” I shriek , looking around nervously and at the open door to the caravan . ” I am sending men to

becomes stuck in the mud . The tires spin , yet the truck only groans as the engines revs , spraying mud everywhere and up the side of my truck .

father gets here , ” Valen says , hanging up . I try to drive forward , but the back wheels just spin , making a mess and the hole deeper . ” Fuck !

I had watched one too many horror movies and knew that was a bad idea . ” You okay ? ” Valen says through the mindlink , and I could feel him getting

ringing me all night checking in . But rambling was better than panicking when I saw a wolf run out of the treeline , two border patrols chasing after it ,

dirt and suddenly shifts or tries to . My heart lurches in my chest as I see the figure get to its feet . Semi shifted , its body still covered in fur

only smaller . My heart nearly stopped , and I don’t even remember opening the car door as I saw one of the patrols go to rip into him . His petrified eyes , so much like his mother’s widened as I ran toward them . ” No !

, God , no ! ” I cried , skidding on the ground as I fell to my knees next to his body . The border patrol tried to shove me back , but my claws slipped for my . fingertips and slashed at them , an angry growl escaping me before grabbing him . Sobs wracked my entire body as I smoothed back
