Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 278

Seeing no point in staying in my room—especially now that Nyx had shut me out—I crawl out of bed and leave. Besides, my stomach is growling, reminding me that I hadn’t eaten since yesterday.

I wander through the corridors and down the stairs in a daze. Sure, Nyx gave me more information... but all it did was leave me more confused. Sometimes I wonder if she does it on purpose, because tell me why I always end up more confused after having a talk with her?

She gets so cryptic sometimes—dropping puzzle pieces, shrouding everything in mystery—and I hate it. I hate not having answers. I hate being confused. I hate being kept in the dark. I hate that she’s feeding me crumbs.

But I also can’t push her. I know her well enough to know that will make her retreat further from me, and I can’t have that. I can’t afford for us to drift apart, especially now, when it feels like Xena has the upper hand.

And her parting shot? It has me spiraling.

Could it be that, just like me, her mother’s wolf spirit was transferred to someone else, living in a completely different human body?

And if she suspects someone, that means she’s already met her. Which means I’ve probably met her too, right?

So, who the hell is she?

I rack my brain, trying to think of who could possibly be Nyx’s mother, but I come up empty.

On that note, it gets me thinking… does Xena have a different body too? Can Nyx recognize her? Or are we flying blind?

It makes sense. If both she and her mother were transferred to new bodies, then the same could be said for Xena. Which just makes things more difficult.

I walk into the kitchen, lost in thought, and the moment I step in, every person in the room stops what they’re doing.

“Good morning, Luna,” a middle-aged woman greets me with a warm smile.

Well… that’s new… and unexpected.

I stand there awkwardly, shifting from one foot to the other, not sure how to respond. I don’t recognize her so she must be a new member. Maybe that’s why she called me Luna?

“H-hi,” I stammer the words, feeling awkward about the whole situation.

“Would you like something to eat, Luna?” another omega asks from near the stove.

Now this is definitely bizarre. I know her. Her name’s Maureen. I used to help the omegas with their duties from time to time. My own little way of giving back to the pack. We’ve worked together before.

I shake myself from the daze and square my shoulders. “Yes… but don’t call me Luna.”

I grind my teeth and hold back my fury.

They exchange glances, and then one of them steps forward.

“You are our Luna,” she says, soft but certain. “That’s very clear to all of us.”

What the actual hell?

My jaw clenches as I stare at them, fuming. First of all, I’m an Alpha. Second of all, who told them to call me Luna? Who gave them the right? If this is Alec’s doing, I swear I’m going to castrate him.

I grit my teeth and try to keep it together. Food first. Rage later.

I watch as Maureen grabs a plate from the dish rack and loads it with eggs, sausage, bacon, and toast. She pours coffee into a cup and places both in front of me with a smile.

“Here you go, Luna.”

That’s it. I can’t contain my anger anymore.

“If you call me Luna one more time,” I say through gritted teeth, narrowing my eyes into slits, “I’m going to skin you alive.”
