Alpha's Blind Luna novel Chapter 14

Logan didn’t come out of his office for the rest of the day. Bryan and I made lunch which he tried to share with Logan. Only to be kicked out of the office immediately. Bryan had to hold me back as I wanted to march my ass up there and tell him to be nice. But Bryan insisted Logan needed some time.

“He’s lost a lot of family, Luna. He’s just over-protective. When I told him you chased after the rogues, I’m sure he thought he might lose you.”

I rolled my eyes. “A couple of rogues can’t take me down.”

“Yeah but your scars…”Bryan trailed off.

“I got them when I was four. I’ve had them my whole life. I’m not weak. If anything, I might even be able to beat Logan.” I mused.

Bryan laughed. “I’d like to see that Luna.”

He gave me a full tour of the mansion that was the packhouse. There were so many rooms, it made my head spin. A private theater, indoor pool, gaming rooms, multiple offices and meetings rooms with an extensive amount of bedrooms. Everything was furnished beautifully and fairly modern. It surprisingly still felt homey and lived in considering the large space and decor. There were pictures and paintings all around with different displays of items or nicknacks.

“Hector lives here as well but his mom’s health hasn’t been doing great.”

“Does she live in the area?”

He nodded. “Silvia lost her husband in the rogue attack. He was her mate and Hector’s father. She pushed through it for Hector but lately, I think now that Hector is grown and became Gamma, she’s giving up the fight.”

I nodded, not even being able to image the pain of having your mate torn from you. Even in his office, I could still feel Logan. I was acutely aware of what he was feeling at all times. While I understood his worry for me, the anger and frustration wounded my pride.

Bryan helped me bring in the ridiculous amount of bags filled with clothing Logan had bought for me. He had already been back at the packhouse when he got the notice of the rogues in the territory. He also had already moved the clothes in the closet to allow me half of the walk-in closet. I filled the closet with the dresses, shirts, pants, shorts, skirts and tops he had brought. It ranged from fancy to casual, getting me just about every type. He even purchased underwear and a few bra’s. I placed those on the shelf in the closet. I didn’t even look in the five shoeboxes when I heard shouting from across the house.

“I said leave me the fuck alone! What don’t you get?!” Logan’s voice shook through the house.

That was is. I stomped out of the room and down the stairs to the second floor. Bryan was walking down the hall and he put his hand out.

“No Luna, just leave him.”

“No! This is ridiculous!” I pushed past him. “He can’t just sulk all day and treat you like shit.”

I slammed open the door and walked in. Logan was holding a drink in one hand, leaning his head against his other hand, elbow resting on the desk. He was looking down at a stack of paperwork.

“I thought I told you…”

“Told me what Logan?”

His eyes snapped up to me and I shut the door behind me. “Auri.”

“You have no right to treat your Beta like that. He didn’t do anything wrong!”

Logan stood. “You’re right, he didn’t do anything wrong. Other than fail to protect his Luna. But you did something far worse.” He put his drink down gently on the desk. “You risked your life for three inconsequential rogues that my men could have handled.”

“I did nothing wrong! I did what any warrior would do for their pack!”

He slammed his hands on the desk. Some of the paperwork fell to the floor, along with some pens from a knocked over holder. They clattered to the ground.

“You are not a warrior. You are my mate.” He growled.

“Why are those exclusive to each other? I thought my place was by your side?”

“Not while fighting. Not while I protect this pack. You will be their Luna but you will not be put at risk.” His eyes were flashing between the midnight blue and the ice.

'Calm Cato down Kai.'

“Logan, I’m not good at a lot of things. That comes with being blind and never actually being attached to the pack, being an outcast. I don’t know how it’s run or the Luna’s exact role. I don’t know what you expected of me when I took the title. But the one thing I 'can' do. The one thing I’m 'good' at and I 'know' I can be of use to this pack is protecting it. Fighting for it.”

'I can’t Auri. I’m sorry.'

He stalked over to me, standing rigid, pulling his full height on me as he looked down. His Alpha presence not only suffocated me in the room but also through the mate bond.

“You will NEVER fight for this pack Auri.”

Tears started to spill over. “I’m not useless, Logan.”

“You are broken Auri. You are broken and weak and when you will take up your place as my Luna. You will take care of the matters with the women, children and elderly. Where you belong.”
