Their forced luna novel Chapter 59
I was pissed.
No, pissed was something I was when a fucking condom broke and snapped my dick.
I was more than that. I was livid.
"What the fuck do you mean that we're not going to go any farther?" I snarled the words at Zale. Never had I ever wanted to tear his throat out before.
But now? I wanted to murder him.
I pointed at the demon that we were teamed up with. "Why are you listening to him, Zale? He's not our pack. He's the fucking enemy."
The bastard glanced over at me and tsked, shaking his head. "You truly have no class. This is why you and your kind must be scoured off the face of this world."
Everything was pure gold in front of me. My wolf practically had full control. He wanted to lunge and bite that bastard's smug nose off his face. "She's waiting for us, Zale."
"And I'm telling you that she's not the only one," the demon snapped at me. "All you have to do is listen. We have to fight before we can rescue our mates. There's something in this dreadful forest that's unnatural." he tilted his head to the side. "They're getting closer to us, whatever they are."
Howls echoed around us. But they weren't the howls of wolves. There was something off with whatever these monsters were. I couldn't put my finger on it but it made even me shiver. "What the fuck are those?"
The demon looked out through the woods. His eyes were narrowed like he could see through the trees. "Creatures that shouldn't exist. I'm not sure how they do, but if they have our Luna, we will not rest until she is returned to us."
I rolled my eyes at him. "Why are you telling me that shit when you just told us to wait?"
"Because, creatures like that are cunning. It is better to prepare than it is to run to your obvious death. We can take them by surprise if we prepare traps."
I groaned. I could feel Amanda. She was close. Through these damn woods. I wasn't sure how far away we were, but I didn't care. We had been traveling for far too long and after being dumped at the edge of this damned place we'd decided to camp out.
I wanted my mate.
Besides, I couldn't stop the worry that pounded through me. What if my bond was the next to be dissolved? It hadn't been long, but the time together didn't matter to me. We were mates, we were part of each other. I couldn't lose her.
"Javier, calm down," Zale ordered. "We should listen to him on this. There's something weird going on here."
I wanted to grab one of these trees and pound Zale's stupid head with the brunt of it. Why was he so calm about this? "I don't care. I'm not just going to play around in the dirt when my mate is that way!" I pointed in the direction I felt her pull from.
"Oh? And how far away would that be?" the demon questioned with that irritating smirk on his lips. I was so tired of his better than you persona. "Preparation is our smartest move. Besides, in case you have no forgotten, and the reason that we have to band together in the first place, our mates were kidnapped by a wizard. It will not be an easy battle, and if we have to handle with unknown variables, it will only get worse."
Maybe I should have stayed with Bo. I could have taken all this frustration out on his sweet little ass. I had another toy I wanted to try out. It was more of an experimental one, but my slutty mate didn't mind a little pain from failed experiments.
The howls got closer. They echoed around us, it made it hard to pinpoint just where they were coming from.
"Pity, I don't think we'll have time for too complicated of traps. I loathe doing things the easy way, but simple will have to do."
I wanted to take that demon's tongue, yank it out of his mouth, then force feed it to his pompous ass. How could Zale stand him?
"Javier, dig a trench around the perimeter. I'll create some simple hole traps and some rope ones."
I stared at him. How could he think such basic traps would work? It was pointless. I wished I could grab him by his shoulders and shake some sense into him. He gave me a hard look and Ares growled at me. Damn it. Why did he have to use his Alpha powers on me all the time?
"Yes, Alpha," I groaned. I shifted and let my wolf take control. This stupid job would be faster in this form.
"I see." the demon mused. The useless asshole continued to stand in the middle of the area with his arms crossed. He wasn't even helping us with this piss-poor idea. "I'm sorry," he apologized.
"What is it?" Zale demanded, but my Alpha didn't stop tying branches down to the ground and hiding them in layers of leaves. It made me want to kick him even more than I already did.
"I underestimated whatever it is that's out in those woods. I feel my mate bond, but we were the ones that stumbled into a trap first."
I turned and studied the area. "What are you talking about. There's nothing here but us, whatever those things are wont' just spring up out of thing air. Besides, this trap thing is your idea."
"It was a joint effort," he corrected me. "But that's not the issue here." He picked up a rock and threw it. It zipped through the air and towards the trees, but instead of hitting them, the rock vanished like he'd thrown it in a pond. "We are already trapped. Those monsters are stronger than I assumed."
Zale grunted. "Then what do you think we should do?"
The demon smiled and held out a hand. "We retreat for now a safe distance away, if still possible. This cage we're in has plenty of openings still, but it will not remain for long."
I snorted. There was no way I was trusting that demon. Instead, I continued to paw at the ground and create my trenches.
Zale grabbed our enemy and he reached for me. But right when he was about to grab me, the demon did what all demons do, he betrayed us. He grabbed Zale's hand away and the two blinked out of sight. I was left alone with my dirt, the howling of the wind, and a chorus of what sounded like laughter.
