The Alpha’s Little Luna

Only God knows why my father has to broach the subject of me not having a mate right now.

I felt so embarrassed in front of Mercedes.

The man just can’t stop, he keeps nagging me about finding my mate, as if it were up to me. I don’t know what plan the Moon Goddess has to make me yearn for her, no one knows how much I suffer in silence from her absence. I’d do anything to find my better half, but I don’t know where to look for her anymore. Maybe she’s already dead, tired of waiting and has become someone else’s chosen mate. Or perhaps she just happens to be a minor, just like Mercedes was when she met the Midnight Moon’s Alpha.

To hide the pain, I took an indifferent attitude. That’s my best defense. To get my father off my back, I flirt wildly with the she-wolves in the pack who unashamedly throw themselves in large numbers at my feet. I have fun but no sex with them. I keep my virginity for my mate, I hope she will do the same for me. And as much as I want to take over Silver Moon from my father, finding my fated mate is at the top of my wish list. Why is she delaying, she’s already two years late.

I have been keeping an eye on Zane and Mercedes for quite some time. Their love is genuine and deep. They are always together, touching and kissing like they do not need other company. The Alpha often bridges a two-hour road trip from his pack to ours just to be with her, even if only for a few hours. And they are so physical, most of the time Mercedes is around his neck and his hand lovely around her waist.

While I prefer an adult mate, I wouldn’t mind meeting her as a minor too. But then she must have the same attitude as Mercedes, be strong and confident. Yes, I would also be willing to wait until she is of age, at least I would know that I have her with me. Why are some men blessed with so much happiness while others like me are doomed to suffer?

But I don’t intend to wait any longer.

My father constantly bullies me, if he continues like this, I’m forced to settle for a chosen mate. Mercedes.

She is getting more beautiful by the day, her curves are now tight as a young woman’s. She is very promising, I bet after she has her first pups, she will blossom into a real vamp. Zane is one lucky bastard, but I won’t remain the martyr. My new mission is to conquer Mercedes and get Zane out of Silver Moon, out of my way. But I also know that I have to act very carefully, thread patiently because those two are almost glued together.

The Alpha is way ahead of me. Zane has made her birthday the event of the year. The party is still the most discussed topic, even outside of Silver Moon, it was the biggest ever held in this region. Zane has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to surprise his mate with an unforgettable birthday. But the absolute highlight of the night was his very expensive present. The latest Bugatti Chiron Super Sport car, is fully loaded with a price tag of more than three million dollars! Man, I need to check if I even have this amount in my account.

And the critiques, especially from the jealous she-wolves, were not kind. Clarita, Mercedes’ bestie, in particular, fuels the hatred. I should kill her, that slut! Was there ever someone who said you shouldn’t trust everyone you share your bread with? Well, Mercedes should really watch her back with this bitch.

But my plans also involved Clarita, I know she’s my father’s favorite bed partner, this woman makes my mother’s life, the Luna of Silver Moon, a living hell. And she’s even younger than me, hooking up with a man of her father’s age. Shameless!

I managed to lure Mercedes to the packhouse with that Beta story. Zane will be away for two weeks, so this is my chance to impress her. My first attempt in the canteen might have been a colossal fiasco, but now she’s sitting here next to me before my parents. We look like a cute couple, my parents seem to like her too.

To my horror, she stares disgusted at the main course on the table. I can beat myself like hell, I should have inquired about her favorites a long time ago. And the beef and chicken wings don’t cooperate at all. I know the potato wedges aren’t enough to satisfy her hunger. In the canteen at school, I noticed she has a healthy appetite. How in God’s name do I make this right?

To prove to her that I am her ally, I take the same. Even if this means I’ll have to sneak into the kitchen at midnight to get some leftovers. Because with the wedges on my stomach alone, I won’t fall asleep from the hunger. I’m an Alpha, for God’s sake!

I make another attempt to grab her hand, and again she pulls out of my reach. And once more, I push away the painful stab in my heart.

“Shall I pick you up in the morning to go to school? By pooling, we save and have a good, undisturbed conversation”, I tried my luck for the umpteenth time.

And there, that aloofness reappears on her face.

“Alpha, my mate is my only male companion. And he didn’t tell me we’re in financial trouble, so I don’t have to save,” she corrected me. “I already said it, we have a business relationship and nothing more”.

Bang! This second rejection hurts like a bitch.

I have never felt this small. Not a good feeling to be knocked down every time I make a move, but I take it, my reward later will be damn sweet. Mercedes needs some work, but in the end, I will have her. She’s going to be my Luna, that’s for sure.

My father clears his throat to get our attention and when I look up at him, I see him frowning in anger. But it’s my mother’s pitying look that I hate the most. It makes me feel like a total failure, like I’m not worthy of being her son cause I can’t even woo a girl.

But I’ll prove them wrong. My mother dreams of a grand Luna ceremony, wasn’t she?

Well, she will get that. I can’t afford to have the Alpha from Midnight Moon outsmarting me…
