The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 447

95 - Ben

I know we didn’t get all of the information she wanted, but Elara has a lot to think about tonight. I ask Melanie to bring food to our room. We don’t need to be in company with anyone but each other tonight. I was hoping to get her some closure for her parents and at least the mystery of what the witches could want, but land just doesn’t seem like a good enough reason for all of this trouble. There are too many loose ends and I can’t decide if that is on purpose or if the Elders just didn’t read the fine print of whatever agreement they entered into.

We stop by Juliette’s room to check in on her before heading to our room for the night. She seems’ to be fast asleep, curled up on her bed. It looks like they are getting some food in her. There is color in her cheeks and the dark circles under her eyes are beginning to fade. We are going to have to take her out to the barrier soon to test Marietta’s theory and I don’t know how my friend is going to deal with that.

Jason is sitting on the couch, in his usual sentinel spot, reading a very old book. I catch his eye, but he shakes his head while glancing at her. It has to be about magic or witches or something to do with his mate. He’s never been one to study unless it is absolutely necessary. This must fall under that category.

When we finally reach our room I can feel the drain on my body and mind, but as soon as I see the food laid out for us in the small kitchenette I know we won’t be interrupted for the rest of the night. I scoop Elara up in my arms, she doesn’t question the movement, and walk straight to the large tub in our bathroom.

“So?” I question.

“We have a magically guarded piece of land that unknown witches want. A spell or something that caused my father to poison my mother, even though Drake said that wasn’t the plan. Then my father loses a fight in the aftermath of her death, which brings on the discovery of said land. A coven who needs protection, but seems to be helping us more than the other way around. Another witch who seems to have been in captivity, is afraid of us, but allowing us to care for her since she is mated to one of your best friends. A cave with magic in it that we haven’t been able to enter, a spell causing a mental takeover of the only Alpha in our bordering packs that is close to my age, and Elders who started it all, but seem to not know what is really going on. Does that about sum up what we are dealing with right now?”
