The Perfect Luna

Brayden couldn’t sit still ever since he felt it. He felt it way too many times in the past 24 hours for it to be nothing. The soul-shattering sharp pain that started in his march and then was echoing through his whole body. Unfortunately, he knew exactly what he was experiencing, and he hated the thought alone of his wife being taken by someone else.

“Alpha,” Roxanne wrapped her arms around his neck leading from the back of his chair and brushed her fingers softly over the part of his chest that was exposed through his unbuttoned shirt, “You don’t look too well. If anything, you look like you are in pain. Maybe I can help you to get rid of it? A mate’s touch is healing for another mate. Let me help you. Let me ease your pain.”

He never thought that he would say it out loud but he had enough of bl.ow jobs and her suggestion wasn’t as appealing as she probably hoped. It was amazing to have a mate and he loved every minute of it. Someone ready for him any time, someone happy to receive just a speck of his attention,someone who was ready to drop to her knees at him simply implying it, someone who was ready to do everything to please him. She was HIS. He did not have to conquer her, he did not have to keep up with her. With his mate everything was easy. She felt his mood swings very well and knew when to back off. She was working around him, eager to please, ready for everything. Just the way it should be.

Yet his mind kept coming back to his wife since his mark was hurting him.

Riannon was with someone else and there was no denying it. Moreover, he was pretty sure that it was that as.shole, the Lycan king. The way he fought for her to come to his kingdom was way too obvious. And the worse thing was that there was nothing he could do about it now. It wasn’t like he could march into the lycans’ lair and demand his wife back. They were more powerful.

He couldn’t start a war with them. His pack would be wiped out quickly and no other alphas would support him in such an affair. They would probably even be happy to see his fall and try to claim his territories afterwards.

This wasn’t the way.

“Damn, Ri, what are you doing?!” he groaned as he texted her for one thousand’s time, not even expecting to receive a reply anymore.

It did not help that he knew that she was angry with him. For not rejecting Roxy. Was she with the lycan king willingly now? Was it her little revenge on him?

If it was, he knew he deserved it. He handled it all wrong, hoping that she would just do   be a Luna, was trained to be one, this was all she was. She knew how to make the necessary sacrifices and he really hoped that she would take one for the team this time too.

The joke was on him as he overdid it. He should have taken his mate to some remote forest cottage and kept her there with some guards, visiting her when the need was arising. But he wanted it all.

Knowing how his wife was loyal to their pack and how they loved each other, he was sure that she would get used to the idea. After all, Roxy was never threatening her position as an omega. No one would want her as their Luna. And Brayden never saw that as an option. He just wanted her close to enjoy their mate bond and all the extra sensations that came with it.
