Luna On The Run - I Stole The Alphas Son

Alpha On The Hunt Chapter 24

Elena POV

“Here’s the last bag,” Axton says, holding it out to me. I take it from him, placing it in the trunk while he says goodbye to the boys. Shutting the lid, I walk around to the driver’s side. We spent all day going over evidence and unfortunately it ap- pears Marcus and Axton are right and it is a Strigoi or some form of hybrid. But its ability to come and go without being seen or caught is quite distressing. We are still no closer to figuring out who it is.

Axton quickly kisses the boys, little heads, who are munching happily on their bottles. He shuts the door and sighs.

“I wish you would stay here.”

“I’ll see if Marcus will lift the ban. I will appeal to the coun- cil for you tonight so you can leave the city.” I tell him. Axton nods once and I go to hop in the car when he grabs the door, a devious smile on his lips. I raise an eyebrow at him, eager to get home and check on the women when I hear a car engine. Turning my head, I see the same car from yesterday.

“That’s the same car I saw yesterday,” I mutter and Axton looks over at it, but it pulls into his driveway and then turns around.

“As I said, they always turn around here, go you should get home before it gets dark. I glance down the driveway one last time, shaking the odd feeling that I got away, turning back to hop in the car. Axton is still standing in my way.

“What are you-” His lips cut my words off as he grabs me, pushing me against the door of the car; the bond flares to life instantly and I kiss him back despite Lexa telling me we have to get home. When he eventually pulls away, I am breathless. “It’s the bond!” He shrugs with a silly smile on his face.

“Sure it is,” I tell him, shaking my head. Axton steps aside and I climb into the car.

“Make sure you message me when you get home.”

Nodding my head, I shut the door and start the car, and Axton walks inside and I can’t help the silly smile splitting onto my face. Reversing out, I pull onto the road, suddenly feeling sick at the idea of leaving him making me stop.

“We have to get home,” Lexa reminds me, but the bond was screaming for me to stay.

“Elena!” Lexa growls at me. Ignoring the feeling, I start driving, yet when I am coming out of Axton’s territory, the feeling gets ten times worse.
