Alpha of the Shadows (Lucianna) novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13

“Are you really doing this, Jake?”

I sighed. He never knew when to stop.

“What response do you want to hear?” I tsk-ed, getting irritated so early in the morning was not my forte.

“In a few hours, your mate will experience the first wave of heat. What is your plan?”

I snapped my head to look at him. First wave of– Fuck!

“I can see you lack knowledge on this, Jake. It will be trouble if she went out and meet a wolf with the scent of her heat.”

“I don’t care–”

“If you say so.” he cut to my words and I didn’t like it, as well as my wolf growling right now.

“You should cease to being rude in purpose, Brent. I’m not a morning person and I don’t want to hear your bullshit this early. Be grateful you’re my beta or you won’t receive a warning before I bite off your neck.”

I eyed him for a moment, making sure he got my message. Brent went silent and finally took a step back.

“I hope you know what you’re doing.” he bowed for respect and then left the room.

The moment I was alone, all I could think of was Lucianna and her first heat.

Plan. Plan.

I could go to her and ease her urges without fucking her, right? No, I would be drowned and intoxicated and might lose control like last

night.

I sighed.

That was out of my options. I should be far away from her as possible.

‘Harley.’ I contacted my Gamma in our portal.

‘Alpha Jacob. I’m on my way to your mate right now. Almost there.’

‘Good. Don’t let her out of the house.’

It took a minute before he answered. What the fuck? Did my mate already jumped on him?

Fuck. What if Harley get aroused to her heat and–

‘And don’t come near her. Tell her to stay in the house, as per my instruction. And guard her from outside of the house.’

I’m going mad. Fuck this.

‘Crystal clear, Alpha Jacob.’

Lucianna’s POV

ହଁ ବ୍ଜ 2 )

I was all fresh and good as new when I went out of my room but my body was only wrapped in a towel. I rejected to wear the clothes

inside that fucking closet. I could smell my mate’s scent all over the house and guessed he must have spent a lot of time here.

I wonder why he hasn’t come home yet. Was he still in his rebellious mode? Huh! Like he could win over the bond, I was sure he would

come back crawling!

Okay, okay, I needed to be a prim and proper mate for the handsome bastard. No one could escape fate, anyway.

I’d just let Jacob play his game more. He would soon see through me.

‘I’m outside the house, Miss. What should I call you?’ a voice in my head said and I almost jumped. Wait, I knew that voice!

The Gamma!

‘Harley, right? My name is Lucianna but you can call me Luce or Lucy. Won’t you call me Luna yet, though?’

‘I already told you, Miss–‘

‘Yeah, yeah. Just call me Lucy. I’m gonna open the door for you, wait a minute.’

‘There’s no need for that, I’ll stay outside but I will keep my senses open so you won’t need to worry about your safety.”

‘I’m not worried about that at all.’ Well, I can pretty much take down any opponent, no matter the size. ‘But why won’t you come in? Also, I need to ask you to take me out. I need some new clothes and my mattress is too big so I’m thinking of having a new one.”

‘I’m sorry, Miss Lucy but Alpha Jacob instructed that you need to stay inside the house. No matter what,”

My jaw dropped. What the-

Okay, maybe Jacob would come home so I needed to stay here.

‘Is he coming home then?’ I would definitely jump on him and wash away the scent of those bitches he fucked last night!

‘He did not say.’

I sighed. What if he wouldn’t and just wanted to lock me in here? Okay, I won’t sit here and wait. My mate and me had to talk!

But should I barge in wherever he was, in a sudden? I think that would make me look like a brusque, and scandalous.

Okay, scratch that. I don’t want my image to be ruined, let’s just reach his portal and hope for a proper conversation.

‘Are you there?’ I said through our mind link. Trying hard, actually. I didn’t receive a response and it was already a whole minute, then two, and there’s no fucking way I would be waiting for a third!
