“Are they ready?” I asked my lawyer.
“Yes…everything is as you instructed” comes his reply.
“Good…Drop them by the house as soon as possible” I tell him before cutting off the line.
It’s been a week since the rescue mission and I haven’t seen Sebastian. One whole week of him not even coming home. I guess that just proves where his loyalty is.
Every time I think of that. It gives me the sense of deja vu. I mean, isn’t this how things started out with Darren right before everything went to shit?
This time though, I wasn’t going to wait to be kicked out. I would show myself out the door instead.
I haven’t been to see Mayra and I don’t plan to. Call it jealousy or whatever but my obligation to her is about to end. After that, we will never have to cross paths again.
“I don’t think this is a good idea” Blue mumbles.
“I second that” Midnight adds.
I sigh. Already freaking tired. I thought that once the mission was over I would finally get enough sleep but I am not. I still feel tired each day I wake up feeling completely drained of energy.
“Whether it’s a good idea or not, it’s what we have to do. It’s what’s best” I reason with them.
“Best for who exactly? Because I don’t see how this is beneficial to us” Blue grumbles.
I pinch my nose and pray for patience. She and Midnight have been irritable and it was driving me insane.
“Have you forgotten what happened the last time we fell in love with a man who has already been spoken for? Have you forgotten how painful it ended for us?”
I remember that pain and I don’t want to feel it again. Darren broke us but Sebastian has the power to destroy us. To completely annihilate us. I can’t risk that. I can’t go back to nothing but pain and heartache.
It’s already painful to breathe. Painful to imagine him at Mayra’s bedside day in day out. Falling for her. While I wait here on the sidelines. Craving his love knowing I can’t have it. That it will never be mine.
When we signed the contract, he warned me about falling for me. Said that there can never be love between us. I didn’t have a chance of making him fall in love with me before. Now with his mate alive, it’s impossible.
“Maybe he will choose us” Midnight says in a small voice.
Fuck does it hurt. Knowing that I now have a new love to bury.
“You’re delusional if you think that Midnight. He has found his fated mate? What makes you think he’ll want us now?” I ask, my voice catching at the end.
I remember when he talked about his mate. The emotions that clogged his voice when he spoke of her. How broken he was that he never even got to meet her before she was taken from him. He loved her despite never meeting her.
Now that he has her, broken or not, he will choose her. I’d rather not see that happening. I’ve already gotten my heart broken too many times to count. I can’t survive another man not loving me.
The door rings and I get up from my bed.
There was no one in the house except for me. I dropped off Jax at the pack house yesterday and lied to him that Krystal and I had to go for a while on a moon goddess mission but we would be back.
I hated lying to him but I also couldn’t break his heart like that. Jax was among the first to love me and accept me when the whole city had turned on me. I wanted to take him with me. Fuck did I want that, but I couldn’t. I had no right to him.
I open my door and my lawyer is standing on the other side together with Claire.
“Come on in” I say.
“Like I said on the phone…everything is in order and just as you requested” he says handing me the papers.
I silently take them and read through them. Satisfied, I take the pen from him about to sign it.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha and His Contract Luna (Lauren)
Did a teenager write this? I wanted to like it but it’s overly dramatic and the character arc is non-existent....
I don't think the the plot for krystals book is something I would like to dark. I would had thought Krystal and something with Jax would have been a better plot....
Finally I'm fucking done author please research heavy topics extensively before writing about them again. When you don’t you often end up victim blaming alot...
I don't even feel sad about Raya fuck her there’s allot of things that trauma is responsible for and letting the people you love die while you enjoy watching isn’t fucking one of them like the authors writing when it comes to these topics are fucking piss fucking put like the victim blaming the dismissal of valid feelings the excuses for the people who hurt her like eww don’t ever touch on subjects like these until you’ve done the appropriate extensive research on these topics. Then ill read your works that touch on these subjects again. The only reason I’m still here is cause ive already started the story....
I knew the goddamn therapist was a fucking weirdo...
Again the therapist is incorrectly saying what’s going on. If Raya took the empirical trauma it’d be Raya that she’d be talking to. Mayra took the emotional AND physical trauma of what’s going on and both Raya and Mayra are experiencing shared mental effects of that trauma with Raya experiencing the effects on the more angered and blaming side. None of this makes Mayra a terrible companion it actually makes Raya a terrible companion if you want to place blame....
Bruh can’t she just get the moon goddess to like give her a new wolf or remove her from the one she got ? She gone be human either fucking way with the way that bitch of a wolf be acting...
The therapist is fixing weird like she was doing so good till she fucking invalidated Mayra’s feelings towards her baby that was forced upon her by her realist that popped up before she was even done healing like what ? Its normal for victims to feel that way towards a rapper baby and what the therapist should have fucking said was yeah Mayra it’s normal to feel that way you’re still haunted by your rapport and haven’t yet healed and it doesn’t help that your daughter looks like him once healed you could make a decision on whether you want to be in her life as her mother or give her up for adoption it’s all up to you but for now you need to focus on healing before attempting to mother a child who looks like your rapist. In the meantime have your child stay with a trusted person so that you can heal and make the correct decision for yourself as a healed woman. But no the therapist says try loving her and being a mother to your rapists child right now even if you haven’t healed yet. Like huh ? You’re fucking weird and the author is weird for this as well. Maybe before writing about a touchy subject please do more research In terms of how to go about the aftermath of trauma and healing because this invalidated a lot of rape victims who hated their children before healing and coming to love and care for them without blame....
We’ll do e. I enjoyed every moment....
Danke :)...
