Alpha's Blind Luna



I opened up the door quick enough to grab the flying glass turtle out of the air. Sighing, I put my hand on my hip and looked at Vale. His eyes were wide as he gaped at me and then a sheepish, apologetic look flashed across his face.

"This the third time, Vale. The third time. I fixed him the other two times but one of these days I won't be able to repair the damage you have done." "I'm sorry, Zeke. He's just here and so easy to lob."

I growled. "I'll make you find your own desk if I catch you doing it again. He does not deserve that kind of treatment." Holding the glass turtle out, I waved it in front of him.

Vale tried and failed to keep the smirk off of his face. "Come here and I will give you a proper apology."

Refusing to give Vale the satisfaction of my smile, I walked over to him and gently set down my paperweight on the desk. Vale had taken over the desk and there were papers thrown everywhere. It was a mess and I had to look away before my instincts to organize it kicked in. Moving back in the chair, he patted his lap and I couldn't help but smile this time. I didn't sit in his lap though, I sat on the edge of the desk, my knees coming between his thighs and the chair.

Vale reached up and brushed the little two inch tuff of my pony tail out the back of my hair. "It's already getting so long."

"You've been hiding out here from the High Council for months, Vale. Hell, in four months it will be a year since you even saw any of the High Councilors. Longer if you include the last time you were actually in the castle. Time still moves forward. Whether we want it to or not."

He nodded and put his forehead on my chest. Smiling, I ran my hands through his hair. Vale still refused to cut his hair. It was getting so long I wondered how he could stand it. I personally loved it but sometimes he seemed uncomfortable with it. Part of me thought that it had nothing to do with the length but the reason why he was growing out his hair. Vale's arms suck around me and he held me tight.

"It's all a mess, Zeke. Everything. I don't know what to do. The High Council has started to bribe me to come back."

I sighed and kissed the top of his head. "Well, they better be offering some good stuff."

Vale shrugged. “At first, it was just access to the restricted section in the library and a better room.”

"At first?"

"They made a throne room for me. Out of one of the ballrooms. Apparently, I have a throne waiting for me at the High Council castle separate from their meeting rooms. Where I can conduct kingly things."

My eyes widened and I looked down at him. "You're kidding?"

He shook his head against me and sighed. Vale didn't answer and instead nuzzled further into me.

“When did you get so rock hard? I feel like I'm just getting squishy by sitting here."

This made me chuckle. "Well, someone has my office. So, I have to find something else to do in the mean time. A lot of it sparing sessions with Morgan but lately its been a lot of manual labor in town. We are building up Main Street and then also setting up a more suburb area. There are four other plots for wine or we have a couple looking into cheese making? Goddess knows what they are thinking but we will help them with anything."

Vale sat up and before I could protest, he tore my shirt off from the front buttons. His eyes hungrily took in now bare upper body.

"Vale! That shirt was perfectly fine!"

He ignored me and leaned forward, licking my abs and I shuddered, placing my hands on the desk for support. His hands snuck under the back of my shirt and held me closer to his lips. Nipping, biting and licking his way up my chest, I let out a couple strangled moans.

"You taste amazing, Zeke. I want more. Please." Vale whined.

"I will not be the one to take you off task, Vale. You know that."novelbin

He ran his tongue over my mark and goose bumps erupted over my skin. My body betrayed me completely as an erection pressed against my pants. One of his hands moved from my back to the front of my pants, palming my head and I bit my lip.

"Not off task, just a break, little Alpha."

I swallowed but as I took a deep breath, there was a knock on the door. We both moved to look at the door. The house wasn't as big as you would think and most of the time, when the both of us were in a room together, unless we were out in the open, no one bothered us. It was easy for us to take a break. More breaks then we should but having Vale home was a dream.

That meant there was something going on. I looked down at Vale and he had the same thought I did. My stomach dropped and I jumped off the desk. Looking at my shirt, sure enough, four buttons were missing. Pulling out the bottom drawer of the desk, I grabbed an extra t-shirt that I kept in there. Once I had it on, I went over to the door and opened it up.

"You know I wouldn't interrupt unless it was important." Bryan was the one standing at the door and I knew this was going to be bad. The look on his face told me this was going to be bad. Turning back to Vale, he was already getting up from the desk.

"What's going on?"

“There is.....something you should see." Bryan's hesitance did nothing but make my heart hammer harder.

I swallowed. "Is it Hector?"

He shook his head. "I haven't heard from Hector in a month but that's not unusual. No, this...this might be worse."

Vale laughed hollowly. "What could possibly be worse?"

Bryan looked at the both of us and suddenly Vale's laugh fell. He wasn't kidding. It was bad. He turned and we followed, heading down into the living room. I noticed we had a packed living room. Lucy, AJ, Jax, Simon, Felix, and I was surprised to see Pipsqueak on the TV we installed above the fireplace. We rounded into the room and everyone started to sit.

Vale sat down on one of the single chairs, Simon taking the other. AJ, Lucy, and Felix took the couch. I pulled up on of the kitchen stools with Jax and we sat facing the TV. Bryan didn't sit. He was leaned up against the kitchen counter. His demeanor did not give me confidence in what the hell was going on.

"Ezekiel, good to see you in one piece." Pipsqueak smiled but it looked sad.

I nodded to her. "Thanks to you. I don't know how I can repay you for everything you did for me."

She shook her head. "I'll be honest with you. I didn't do it for you. My allegiance will always be with The Huntress. She asks, I provide. Well, now it's Hector but that's besides the point."

"Have you spoken to him...within the past month? We haven't..."

"Yes. Two days ago. He's still out there and still surviving. He's a bit more feral now than he was but he's focused solely on finding her."

Vale leaned forward. "Is that why...?"

She shook her head. "Are you all familiar with the supernatural TV station?"

I furrowed my brow, and so did a couple in the room. Lucy was the one who smiled.

"I watch the vampire novella's from it. They are so good. Cheesy but goddess do they make me cry." Lucy chuckled and Felix pulled her in, crushing her against him to quiet her.

Felix, who was one of our top warriors, was also Lucy's second chance mate. He was fantastic and honestly, the best match for the level of crazy that Lucy could be. She had grown to be a little sister to me, especially helping Morgan in my recovery. Felix was a wonderful match for her and we were all ecstatic for her. Bryan was a little more on the fence but he had grown to love Felix as well. There was more pep in Bryan's step now. I think Felix filled the hole left by Bryan's first born.

Pipsqueak chuckled. "So, when flipping through channels, most humans would see multiple channels that are the static image. The black, white and gray static but really if a supernatural being was watching it, even a half-human, they would see that most of those channels are run by the TV Station Holograph."

"Holograph is the name of the TV station?" I asked, not knowing what any of this was but we also rarely watched TV in my old pack.

"Correct. They do novella channels, fashion, game shows, fluff shows, and supernatural news. It's the only one of it's kind and they aren't about to share how they are able to get through the satellites of the humans to make competition for themselves."

We all stared at the TV. Pipsqueak turned in her chair and we saw her typing with at least five screens behind her. She swung back around. "Sorry, multitasking. Anyways, last night there was a news segment. It was on one specific topic and after the segment aired, it was all over the inte, magazines, and even papers delivered everywhere. No one uses paper anymore but they still did it."

Bryan stood up from his lean. "Pipsqueak, please."

She sighed. “It's...not going to be easy to watch. Some of the best lies are grounded in truth. But..." Pipsqueak intertwined her fingers and leaned forward, resting her chin on them. "...this could be the start of the biggest supernatural war we have ever seen. That anyone has every seen."

The whole rooms air shifted. Vale sat up straight, his eyes wide. My eyes were also wide but I was focused on him. His emotions flowing through me without a filter. Fear being the biggest of them. We had been saying that there was going to be a tipping point. Something was going to set it off. At first, we thought maybe it would be one of the werewolf packs taking it too far but it had been manageable so far.

"I'll play the whole segment for you. Bryan has...already seen it as I reached out to him first. I know not many of you watch it."

"If we don't watch it, then how many people could possibly see it?" Vale's voice was shaky. Pipsqueak's lips pursed and she looked directly into the camera. "Enough, Vale. Enough."
