The Eclipsed Life of Luna Mischa (by Jennifer Francis) novel Chapter 138

Mischa sat on that bed and laughed into that bedroom, as she realized it really was a whole new ball game now. Christy had just showed her that not only would she self–induce a heat, but she even had the audacity to do it before an Elder, and not just any old Elder, but the very one that was in charge of saying if she was worthy of having her title handed back to her at that.

Oh, it was freaking hilarious, that girl, when she was found out, was going to go down in flames, because she’d just stupidly involved an Elder in her act of treason. Debbie may know nothing of Christy’s plotting and planning, but Christy was going to use Debbie to try and save her own backside.

If there was any doubt as to how her heat came along, Christy was going to play the ‘I didn’t do anything, how could I, I was with Debbie all day long‘ card. It was all in that she’d eaten all her meals with Debbie and only been out of her sight to use the bathroom. She really didn’t see how she sabotaged her own plans did she!

Christy had clearly thought long and hard about how to do this to herself a second time and get away with it. Everyone knew she’d come across Mischa in the foyer, had even apologized and hurriedly stepped out of the way as if to help Anthony get Mischa to the safety of a scent–proof room. Both her and Anthony’s

units were right there to see she’d not done it on purpose and hadn’t interfered in anything.

Then she’d been in her Luna Lessons all day, in sight of Debbie, bar bathroom breaks, she thought she’d been so very clever about bringing this heat on. Only what she didn’t realize was the moment she turned to Debbie and stated, ‘You were with me all day, I did nothing wrong. You know that.’

Debbie’s Luna brain was going to kick in as to why Christy had suddenly been with her all day long, when normally she’d be off on her breaks away from Debbie, standing around or sitting about somewhere in the packhouse by herself having her break. Debbie’s own words about ‘there was another option mentioned,” said it all. Her brain was already ticking, it seemed on the ways this could possibly come about.

It was entirely possible, Mischa thought, that Debbie would come to that all on her own. She already recalled Gillian had stated it was a one in a million chance that it would happen. So, for it to happen a second time and just three months after Christy’s natural heat, when she’d had a heat three months prior

to that.

‘Three freaking heats in six months. Laud roared with laughter inside her mind and was practically dancing about in there, as ecstatic as Mischa herself was.

Mischa’s hand covered her mouth as she laughed, and tears squeezed out and rolled down her face, ‘So fucking worth it right now.‘ Mischa told Laud, and that freak out and inability to cope with the one bout of her heat, it was gone in a moment of thought.

She mind–linked to Paul and her girl’s ‘Three fucking heats in six months.‘ she burst out happily.

She heard them all snort with full amusement down the line.

‘Man, she really is dumb. Paul laughed, then he stopped and cleared his voice. ‘Mischa, as happy as I am

to hear you happy right now, you need to tell Anthony what to do before we continue this conversation.

Yeah, I’ll get there. She snorted. ‘She really doesn’t disappoint, involved an elder and doesn’t see the ramifications of that, Debbie realizing what she did and how Christy used her to do it‘

‘So fucking stupid.‘ Letti laughed.

Mischa dropped the link and took a moment to settle herself. She still had to get Anthony to go and tend to Christy’s heat, something he was now only realizing he had no control over, and was going to have to abandon either her or Christy at some point. He was likely out there tearing his hair out right now.

She felt Laud snort and then shake it off and settle inside her mind as well, though her tail still swished happily back and forth as Mischa connected to Anthony finally, ‘I just heard from Debbie that Christy has gone into heat… happened right there in Debbie’s office in the middle of Luna Lessons‘

‘I know I felt it, I was also informed by Paul,” he sighed heavily. ‘I’m not leaving you to your heat alone, Mischa, not again. He told her. ‘I just won’t, she’ll have to wait until your next bout comes and goes. ‘I’m not having a bout of heat right now, so just go tend to her,‘ Mischa stated simply.

‘She’s not even been moved, Mischa, to her room, so there is no rush. I’m not about to go and mate her in Debbie’s office. That first bout isn’t too bad, can be dealt with, you yourself know that,‘ Anthony told her,

She did know that, 22 years of heats, and she’de that first bout on her own probably nine or ten times when he was in the city or out of the pack for one thing or another.

‘Just go, I’m fine. We don’t even know when my next bout will come though… it’s likely due within the next hour and a half if we base it off my last heat, so you’ve got time to go service her needs. She smiled to herself at the way she worded it, because it wasn’t a true heat, was self–induced so it wasn’t him tending to a heat, it was seen by her as him servicing Christy’s desperate need to keep him from getting Mischa pregnant.

She’d had three bouts of heat each day last time, roughly six to eight hours apart. Today her first heat had been just before 9am, so by that logic, between four and 5pm would see the next one, and it was three thirty now, so technically, he did have time.

‘Christy’s bout of heat will last what? An hour or so! You should have time to come back… However… do

not come back to this room smelling like her. That will be the end of us officially. She put it to him on a

more serious note. In a way he could read between the lines and understand the full ramifications of what

would happen.

‘You might, and Christy might not care to have my scent on you, when you fuck her, but I think that thing is abhorrent and offensive to the other Mate, and no Mate should do that to the other, make them scent

another’s desire on them while you’re having sex with them. Crude and rude is what it is.’

‘Mischa, what if your bout comes while I’m not available?‘ he asked after a long moment. She knew he was thinking about it now, she’d been logical in her thought process about the time of her next bout. Even

how long Christy would normally go for.

*25 Point!

Though she knew he’d not yet thought about the fact that Christy had only been in heat in the middle of February, she checked her phone’s calendar. Wow, it wasn’t even three months, it was two and a half months, 10 weeks. That was freaking unheard of. His brain wasn’t in gear because he was stressed over the fact that Christy’s heat was once again coinciding with Mischa’s.

‘Mischa?‘ he prompted her once again, and she realized she’d not answered his question; had already turned her thoughts away from him.

She pulled her thoughts back to the matter at hand, ‘Debbie is talking with Brent right now, my tailored drugs will be here in a few minutes in all likelihood. She told him simply.

‘I don’t want to leave you. I promised you I wouldn’t. Shade and I are not going to break that, he told her.

‘You may have to, and have to deal with it being unavoidable…” she told him as she tried to word herself in a way that would see him go to Christy, “You have two Mates, who are now in heat at the same time once more, and you simply cannot be in two places at once… So, unless you want Christy to become closed off to you, like I am.

‘Then I suggest you get your ass down there to sort out her needs… or you’ll have two Mates that want absolutely nothing to do with you and then, Anthony, what will you do?‘ She put to him. ‘There will be no point in keeping either of us. You also know she hates me, could well blame me for your not going to her and come at me.’ She pushed him a little harder.

‘What will you do if Christy does that, tries to kill me or sets me up to have you do it? Do you recall your vow to us, Laud and I about what would happen… You’d take her head, and then be left with just me, and you now see the full truth of how I am where you’re concerned. It’s very unlikely I’ll change my mind on that just because Christy’s head is no longer attached to her body…

‘So… She sighed, letting it sound heavy as well. ‘I honestly think it’s best not only for Christy that you tend

her heat, I also think it’s best for me, I don’t want a target on my back from the she–wolf you love, I’ve had

enough of that to be honest. Go and do what you as a Mate should do, she told him with a sound resolve of sending him away to allow herself to suffer and not see his other Mate suffer.

ľ

She knew he understood everything she’d said, and the way she’d worded herself also showed him that she thought Christy’s vindictive nature, and that she hated Mischa, would see more ramification come from him not tending Christy’s heat in favor of staying with Mischa.

He was quiet for a full minute, and she knew she really had his brain ticking, on whether Christy would come at her, his vow, and that it wouldn’t save his mate bond with her even if he did kill Christy. She knew he wasn’t about to let himself become wolf–less either, so if her words came true he’d have to keep his

VOW.

‘There is a problem I foresee.‘ He muttered with a heavy sigh. ‘Her heat, if like the last one, will be aggressive and her bouts will come quicker. I could be tending her when you need it.”

‘So be it.‘ Mischa stated, ‘Go. I don’t need you right now. Be somewhat respectful, and shower before going

to her You’ve been out there all day, so… she reminded him of how rude it was to be with one she–wolf when you smelled of another. Then she cut the link and tracked him with his pack tether.

It was still several minutes before he walked away, he didn’t rush off, and she wondered if he was fighting with his wolf about where he should be right now. ‘Must be a dilemma for them.’ Laud snorted.
