Alpha’s Regret-My Luna Has A Son Chapter 28

The wedding went off without a hitch; I was just settling behind my desk, getting ready to finish up for the day, leaving the night manager to handle the end of the wedding. I was about to log out when my phone vibrated.

Valen: Still waiting for that invoice?

I planned on ignoring him and dealing with it tomorrow, but his next text message had me scrambling for my email.

Valen: Do I need to stop over and deal with it personally, force you to submit and make the booking? Maybe I may mark you too.

Ivy: Sending it through now and the booking confirmation.

I quickly reply, going through the calendar to find a suitable date. I added it to the schedule when an idea hit me. If it costs too much, he would surely decline.

Writing up the invoice. I sent it through to his work email, which he texted through earlier in the day. I chuckle to myself when my phone starts vibrating on my desk. I stifle my laugh and pick it up.

“Fifty thousand dollars?” Valen exclaims. I pull the phone away, so he doesn’t hear me laughing before composing myself.

“That extra half-star rating costs a lot, you wouldn’t know, you only have what is it? Four stars? ” I tell him having a dig at the fact my Hotel’s rating was currently half a star higher than his.

“It is outrageous, what are you serving that it will cost that much, do I at least get my cock sucked for that much?” He asks.

“Oh, you know the finest finger food, fairy bread, with premium sprinkles, frankfurts and tomato sauce, the good stuff reserved specifically for the Blood Alpha, if I am feeling generous, I may add in a pass the parcel and goody bags, but as for the cock sucking I ann sure Ashley will do a fine job, I would rather skip on any STD’ s,” I tell him. Valen growls.

“I don’t have any STD’s. You think this will turn me away?” He snaps.

“I am hoping so,”

“No, chance. Fine, you want to serve all the Alpha’s in the City, kids party food, go for it. Check your bank in the morning; the money will be there, oh and Everly?”

“Yes, Alpha, ” I say, bored and wanting to go to bed.

“I will be seeing you real soon, and if I am paying this much it wanna come with a happy ending from you personally, ” He laughs and hangs up. I wonder what he means. I hadn’t even gotten back to my apartment when my bank notified me that a payment was placed into the Hotel’s bank account. That was fast; I groaned as I opened it and saw it was definitely from Valen.

” Damn it,” I mutter. I was so sure he would refuse. Not only was he officially holding the Alpha meeting here, but he had also paid in full, and I now had to host for Four packs. The girls are going to kill me,

the last thing rogues want is to be spoken down to by Social elites all night, and the catering team will be fuming when they see we are not hosting for one Alpha but four plus a few neighboring city Alphas. Hmm, I could bribe them with a bonus, maybe?

Stepping inside, Zoe was watching TV, yawning. She looks back at me over the couch.

“Oh no, what happened,”

“We may be hosting the Alpha meeting. Well, we are hosting the Alpha meeting, ” Zoe sighs.

“This is what you didn’t want to tell Macey and I when we asked how you got the delivery truck and a fridge in?” I nod, chewing my lip nervously.

“Charge him double that will send him packing, ” “I charged him fifty thousand, ” Zoe laughs.

“That’ll definitely send him elsewhere, ” She laughs, but I don’t.

“No, no, he didn’t, ” I shrugged, pressing my lips in a line grimly.

“That son of…. Lovely lady, ” Zoe corrects.

“Shit, what do we do about the kids, Valarian and Casey? Both their fathers will be there, and if Micah is here, guaranteed he will bring his mate,” Zoe says, chewing her lip worriedly. Micah was Casey’s father, and he still hadn’t told his mate he had an illegitimate child, which worried Zoe because his mate Ana was struggling with fertility.

“Maybe we can ask Macey’s mum; it’s not for three weeks. We have time to figure out something, “

“It is what it is,” Zoe says with a shrug. “What about your father?” She asks.

“He will probably just ignore me, I would say, I haven’t seen him since the hardware store years ago,

“Maybe he might be over it, want to reconnect?”

“Maybe I don’t though, he tossed me away, although Valarian asked me about my family today, also asked about Valen, ” I tell her.

“What did you say? I saw the family tree thing. Casey brought one home too, “

“Valarian added you, Macey, and the girls on it,” I smile.

“Bloody better have I am the best Aunty anyone could ask for,” Zoe states, and I chuckle.

“Did they go down easy tonight?”

“Casey had a tummy ache, but Valarian went down easily, he asked when you would be home, and he was digging around in your room earlier too. He took some pictures from the photo album.” I nod.

“Yeah, I told him he could” Zoe chews her lip nervously.

“He overheard you on the phone earlier, asked what being marked meant, “

“What did you tell him,”

“That mates mark each other, “

“Shit,” I pinch the bridge of my nose.

“He overheard me on the phone to Valen this morning, ” Zoe sighs,

” I figured, he is sometimes too smart for his own good that boy is,”

Monday two days later.

We were running late the next morning for school drop -off, and Zoe and I both forgot it was crazy hair day. Macey reminded us when we walked out this morning and saw the kid’s hairs not done, so we were currently on our way to buy some spray in hair color. Pulling up at the local grocer, Zoe ran inside before returning with electric blue hair color in a can, and one called glitter bomb. We pulled both kids from her little yellow Volkswagon. Casey giggled excitedly as her hair was changed to blue. Valerian, however, pouted.

“I don’t want to look like a smurf,” he says.

“Zoe said it is the only colors they had left. It’s for a good cause, it’s to raise money for the children’s hospital and for you kids to have fun,” I tell him.

“What about the glitter one?” Zoe asks. Valerian crosses his arm, looking at Casey dancing around the car park beside the car with her blue hair.

“No, it will make my hair sticky, ” he says.

” Come on, Val, just a little, ” I beg him. Gosh, this child was sometimes difficult. Would it kill him to be a kid for once?

“You will be the only kid without your hair done,”

Zoe tells him, and he side eyes, Casey. ” Please, ” I ask.

“Fine, just one line,” Valerian gives in, and Zoe draws a glitter line from the front of his head to the back. She shrugs. You could barely see it in his dark hair.

“Better than nothing, ” She says, and we count it as a win.

Climbing back in the car, we head to the school. The teachers were waiting out the front hair, all done up in colorful clothes and crazy hair. The school was run-down and derelict-looking. Covered in graffiti and there were only around two hundred students total, and the teachers were barely educated enough to teach at it.

It angered me that only two streets away on this side was Alpha Valen’s pack schoo1, and across the road three other pack schools, yet children of Rogues or Rogues-whores were classed as undeserving of getting a proper education, the least they could allow would-be actual teachers.

When we enrolled the kids in school, Macey, Zoe, and I walked through ; they barely had a library, had only one old computer to be shared amongst the kids. We decided to raise money for the schoo1, so for two weeks, half of all hotel sales and rooms fees went to the school. It was clear the packs weren’t going to help, but in a way, they did without

knowing it by attending the fair we held at the Hotel. We raised enough that new laptops were brought, and the library actually looked like a library, half the shelves packed with different books.

“I just had an idea on what the bonus from the Alpha meeting can be used for,” I tell Zoe.
