Alpha's Blind Luna

Chapter 107





Auri nodded and suddenly the weight was gone, as if it was never there. She reached down and picked me up off the ground.

"Sorry. Got a little heated there. Good to know the level that you can take. We will have to work on it if you're staying for a while. I don't expect you to be up and running around at 100% but..." There was a mischievous smile on her face. "...20% is kinda of sad."

My eyes widened. Rydere even stepped back a little, shocked as well. She laughed and shook her head.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

"Shall we?" Her hand was held out to me and I intertwined my fingers with hers.

We walked quietly for a while. She hadn't even looked back at the Alpha. I, however, glanced back at him, my anger rising back up.

"Honestly, he's not that bad. Pushy, sure. But he's a good Alpha. Especially with the ideas that all supernaturals should be on the same page. Together, learning and coexisting. Not fighting each other."

"Not a bad guy?! Auri, he just threatened your kids!"

Auri sighed. "Because you're here. He's threatened by you. His Beta even caught your reaction."

“You're my mate and he's coming onto you! I should have broken his bones when he tried to squeeze my hand.” I mumbled.

Laughing, she brought my hand up and kissed it. "I didn't know if you were wanting to..."

"...fight him?"

She rolled her eyes. "...take responsibility, Hector."

I stopped and because our hands were together, her progress was halted as well. "Auri, I love you."

"That doesn't mean you're ready to be my mate, Hector. Yes, it was forced but as much as you were worried about how I would feel, you need to realize that I got the easy side of this deal." Auri came back and cupped my cheek. "You're stuck with me. The broken, mother of thirteen. Four of which are all over twenty and have their own issues, nine under fourteen who absolutely have issues. I'm the King Killer, the Huntress, the most notorious and wanted wolf with a ridiculous bounty on my head. I've got powers that surpass just about everyone I've met and I don't know their limits yet. Not to mention..." I could hear her heart hammering in her chest. "...we have forever now. A concept that I still struggle to wrap my head around." Standing before her, I really looked at the woman in front of me. Auri was beautiful and sensual. She aged gracefully over the years but now those lines of wisdom only showed in her eyes. Her power, even locked away, still emanated from her in a way that commanded respect. However, the love she held and the kindness softened those edges.

Auri was right. If I was to stand by her side as her mate, it was more than just strength and power that I needed. I needed to be more than myself, more than just the simpering wolf who loved a Luna. I was mated to a Goddess, a wolf, a vampire, a fey, a king, and a mother...all rolled into one package.

A smile spread to my face. Getting down on one knee, I took both of Auri's hands in mine. "I, Hector Mendes, reject the bond to the Golden Moon pack. I hereby pledge my allegiance, my loyalty, my love, and myself to Auri Meadows, Goddess of Judgement. I also request your hand in marriage, if...if you will have me."

Her eyes were wide as saucers as I felt a full blush rush across my face. She didn't say anything as she stared into my eyes. I started to stammer. "I...I know there are so many things I need to be better at. A better protector, learning to be a good mate...a good father...I just..."

"Hector..."

"I know we didn't get to choose being mates but if the fey, witches, humans and even vampires think the idea of marriage is a good thing. It's a choice that we can have and I know I don't have a ring but we can..."

"Hector."

"I just...I can't lose you and I love you and I want to be with you every single day. We won't grow old but now forever feels like a gift and I...I just..." She tore her hands out of mine and threw her arms over my shoulders. In a second, her lips crashed against mine and I wrapped my arms around her. Holding her tight to me, I kissed her with a passion and a fever that I had been holding back. Goddess, I loved Auri. I loved her so much. But the love I felt for her mixed in the bond with the love she had for me.

Her forehead rested against mine. "Yes, Hector. Absolutely."

I swallowed hard. My breath coming out in spurts before I started to laugh. Tears filled my eyes and I held her face, kissing Auri again. "I fucking love you."

"I love you. I have to equally learn with you. I haven't been the best mate but I want to be better. Learn to be stronger. To be better."

"Then, I guess we will be on this road together."

She nodded, tears streaming down her face. "Thank you...for choosing me. I know I was upset last night. But I..."

Shaking my head, I kissed her nose. "I understand. Especially after all that's happened. I want you to be happy. And I always hoped...that...it would be with me."

"You're the best friend I could ever have and that I never deserved. Never deserved your love. But I hope to...one day."

Smiling, I felt on cloud nine. Taking her hand again, I stood and we continued our walk. My phone started to vibrate and I honestly forgot I shoved it in my pocket. Pulling it out, I saw Vale was calling. Auri giggled.

"Did you forget they can feel the break from the pack?"

I sighed. "Maybe."

Rejecting the call, he immediately called again. Auri squeezed my hand. "I'm not answering." I rejected it again.

"Hector, you're gonna have to..."

I looked down and this time Ezekiel was calling. Sighing, I rejected two calls from him. The next one was from Bryan and I groaned.

"He will murder you if you reject that call." Auri chuckled.

Answering it, I put the phone on speaker as we walked. "Hello, Bryan."

"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Bryan yelled over the phone.

In the background, you could hear Vale ask if I really answered him.

"Relax Bryan. It's fine."

“It's fine? It's fine?! It's not fine. You just left the pack!"

I sighed and Auri squeezed my hand. "I know what I did and why I did it."

Bryan was quiet and all sound disappeared. "Hector, Vale thinks you're abandoning him. He can't lose you, not now when we are working out the kinks of the treaty."

"I mean, I kind of am. He has his own leadership to lean on now. He doesn't need me or you."

Auri hit me in the chest and I laughed. "What? It's true."

She hissed. "It's not! You're not abandoning Vale."

"Hector! Do you have me on speaker? Who is that?"

I smiled and looked at Auri. "My fiancé."

"You're what?! Hector! The fuck is going on with you?"

Auri was red as a tomato and I started to laugh. Pulling her close, I put my arm around her and kissed the side of her head. She fit right into my side.

"Can't you be happy for me? Seriously Bryan, you're my best friend."

"And as you're best friend I'm asking what the hell are you doing? Marriage? What is she? Another supernatural race?"

"I mean...you aren't wrong."

Auri giggled and shook her head. "You're terrible." She whispered and I nodded.

We got to the gate and I pulled it open for her. She walked into the house but I stayed out and leaned against the short brick wall.

"I'm choosing a direction. Finally, I feel like I have a direction in my life. A purpose and a way forward."

Bryan growled. "You've been gone for six months. How are you finding a wife? Even getting married? What about Auri?"

"Bryan, stop. It's time. Time for me to get my shit together."

He laughed. “Hector, you're too old for this. You can't even have kids!"

My brow furrowed. "Why not? I'm not that old. Fuck Bryan, what the hell?"

"Seriously? You want to have a newborn when you're sixty?"

"One, I'm not sixty. And two, it's fine because she has nine kids."

I heard Bryan choke on something and I smirked. "Nine? Did you just say nine kids? Hector, now I know you're fucking with me."

"I'm not actually. Gale, Felicity, Osiris, Wendy, Colin, Herr, Bast, Juniper, and Sammy. Ranging from 3 to 14."

There was silence for a while. "You're not joking...are you?"

"I'm not. Look, don't know when I'll

be coming back to Italy or the US. But what do know is that if we do I'm not coming back to the pack. You and I both know he's putting all his eggs in one basket and if the basket breaks, all hell is going to break loose."

"You going to try to convince him of that? Before this so called 'King Killer' comes for Vale?"

My eyes widened. "You know of the King Killer?"

Bryan snorted. "Vale got real

paranoid, real quick. Suddenly, anyone on the edge of the territory is a spy and heeds to be apprehended.

I try to give my input but there isn't much I can do when it comes to the

rumors..."

This conversation was going nowhere. I knew I kept a lot of secrets from him lately, especially what happened to Auri and I, so part of it my fault but it

was pissing me off how closed minded he was right now.

"I'm gonna go. Vale can put a bounty on my head too if it pleases his majesty. But when I come back, he'd better have a plan if this goes tits up."

A sigh came over the line.

"Whatever, Hector. I'd say you're too

old but so am I. I might just ask to stay in Italy and help Ezekiel. I'm tired. Between your shit, Vale, and

Auri missing, my sanity is gone."

Rolling my eyes at his drama queen routine, I shook my head. "I'll talk to you later." “When's the wedding?" I could hear his sarcastic tone and it irked me more than it should have.

"Maybe a couple months. Depends on what she wants to do."

"Three!" Auri shouted from the house and I laughed.

"You heard the woman. Three months."

He scoffed. "Talk to you later, asshole."

"You too asshat."

The phone line disconnected and I rolled my eyes. My brain almost stuttered. "Wait...did you just say three months?"
