Xander –
“Alpha Xander, she is at it again,” Beta Jacob reported. “She encountered some of the pack members, and they had bitterly
expressed how Delilah was not at par
with Kate.”
“Where is she?” Xander asked, referring to Delilah.
“In your room, Alpha, Beta Jacob responded.
Xander sighed. He slowly went to the main bedroom, the same room he used to share with Kate. Now, it was his room and
Delilah’s.
He found Delilah weeping on the bed. When they locked eyes, Delilah expressed, “Why is that? In their eyes, I could never be
better than Kate?”
Xander settled next to Delilah and comforted her. He said, “I’m sorry. The pack should know better. You are my fated, after all.”
It had been two weeks since the cursed alpha had taken Kate, yet the townspeople still could not get over their Luna being gone.
Sadly, they took it out on Delilah. “It’s time we tell everyone the truth about Kate,” Xander told Delilah. Delilah pulled back. With
her fingers wiping her tears, she asked, “Is that okay with you? You don’t have to. I know how much you value Kate. That was
why She sniffed her tears away and reminded Xander, “That was why I came to her rescue when she had asked for help. I knew
she was very important to the pack, and technically, she was my Luna too. I would rather sacrifice myself –”
“No! That was not right at all!” Xander retorted. “Kate should not have called for your help since you were pregnant!”
“But now, it’s too late.” Xander’s jaws clenched, recounting how Delilah lost their pup. It was the day Alpha Sebastian
overpowered their pack.
Xander had expected Delilah to remain in the shelter while he fought. Back then, he had just defeated one of the cursed alpha’s
warriors when Delilah mind linked with him, telling him that Kate asked for her help!
Why did Kate even do that? It was clear to Xander how Kate was up to no good. Thankfully, Xander arrived in time to save
Delilah. He felt her pain and the loss of their pup. So when Kate asked for Xander’s help, he refused.
Xander was sure, Kate intended to have Delilah killed by the cursed alpha’s warriors. Her hands would be clean, and no one
would blame her, but Xander knew better. It was one of Kate’s methods.
Caressing Delilah’s cheek, Xander suggested, “We can have another baby. And after we let the pack know of how scheming
Kate was. They will know that she had a hand in your miscarriage. We will marry and I will make you my luna”
Tears welled in Delilah’s eyes again. She said. “Really? I’m going to be your bu Xander nodded. He answered. “You deserve it,
being my fated mate.”
“You don’t regret that Kate is gone?‘ Delilah asked meekly
“Kate diá an evil thing by indirectly killing our pup. Now, she is being punished by the cursed alpha.” Xander shook his head. He
described, “There are many stories about him.
Some say he has women left and right, turned into slaves. In one of my trips to the north, I had once heard that he likes beating
women because women tend to be disgusted with his hideous face that he takes out his anger on his slaves,” Xander reported.
“Oh, Goddess!” Delilah gasped. “Poor, Kate. She must be suffering at the hands of Alpha Sebastian. I also heard of those
stories. My father said that people in the north had seen his face and that it was badly burned.”
“Some say he had claw marks on his face,” Xander said differently. “Either way, the talks of his abuse seem to be true because
many people from the north fear him.” “Are you sure you are not going to save Kate?” Delilah asked with her face showing
concern.
“You are too kind, Delilah, thinking about Kate when she had wronged you many times, Xander expressed. He breathed in
profoundly and said, “I’m sorry. I never thought that Kate would turn out bad. I should have just rejected her outright and let her
leave us. We would have lived peacefully with our pup.”
“No,” Delilah said woefully. “I understand. She was your wife for over a year. You loved her too. It was I who came in between the
two of you. She probably could not accept that she was not your destined mate.”
Yes, that was right. Xander acknowledged how he loved Kate. They were happy together as a married couple for a year until
Delilah came.
Truth be told, Xander wanted to reject Delilah during Kate’s birthday, but out of respect for Alpha Denzel, he opted to take the
discussion to their pack lands. However, when they arrived at the Red Wood Pack, Delilah was in so much pain, foreseeing the
coming rejection. Thus, he delayed his plans for a few hours. Instead, he wound up spending time with Delilah. One thing led to
another, and in the end, he fell right into the mate bond’s trap. Xander could not resist Delilah’s charms and the pull she had over
him, especially since she practically stripped n*ked in front of him in the packhouse, back at the Red Wood Pack. The wolf in him
became ablaze with desire, and the only way he could put out the fire was to claim Delilah, so he did. That was how it all started,
and that was why he took Delilah in as his mistress.
He still cared for Kate back then, but the more Xander learned of Kate’s true nature, his feelings for her easily weakened. Still, he
kept Kate as the luna because she was so damn good at the job! If only Kate were Xander’s true mate, she would
have been his perfect luna.
After soothing Delilah. Xander left the master bedroom. He went into his office and called for Beta Jacob. He ordered, ‘Beta
Jacob, call the entire pack for an important meeting. Today, we will let everyone know that Kate, my ex wife, is at murd:ral”
Beta Jacob was stunned. He gulped and said, “Alpha, you don’t actually believe that, do you –”
“Are you you that deaf?” Xander growled. “Did you not listen to me when I told Kate asked for Delilah’s help during the attack?
She did that on purpose to kill Delilah. She may have failed to have Delilah killed, but my pup died!”
“Kate was responsible for the baby’s death!” Xander declared. “The pack has to know so they would slowly accept Delilah as
their luna.”
“Yes, Alpha,” Jacob nodded before reluctantly turning around.
Sebastian –
Back at the Wind Walker Pack, Sebastian was catching up with work. He was gone for a week to conquer the Dunswick Pack
and now had lots of paperwork on his desk.
Suddenly, his beta entered his office. Zev updated, “Alpha, Gus is recovering well. He asked to see you.”
Behind his mask, Sebastian smirked. He was relieved that his old friend was alive. He answered, “I will see him, and I will bring
Kate as well. They both have something to talk about.”
Sebastian expected Zev to leave, but he stood there as if wanting to report more. He looked at his beta and asked, “What is it?”
Clearing his throat, Zev answered, “I – I don’t know if this is any relevant, Alpha, but the warriors who are stationed at the South
Moon Pack have reported many misconceptions about you –”
“You know that I’ve never cared about those talks. Let them think the worst of me That builds up the fear, and it will ultimately
keep my enemies from trying to take me down,” Sebastian reminded his beta.
“Okay, well.” Zev sucked in a deep breath. He revealed, “What about accusations. towards your future luna, Alpha?”
Sebastian stilled. He was already signing documents when Zev mentioned Kate. He looked up to him and asked, “What about
Kate?”
Zev reported everything, especially about how Xander had branded Kate a murderer.
A low growl escaped Sebastian’s l*ps. He replied, “Look into that woman, Delilah?
“Yes, Alpha, that is Alpha Denzel’s daughter of the Red Wood Pack, Zev filled in.

The Alpha’s Contract Luna
“Look into her. Something doesn’t add up with that woman,” Sebas After all, he was there when it all happened. He saw exactly
how D out of nowhere and involved herself in that fight. If anything, it wa fault for losing the baby and not Kate’s.
“Yes, alpha,” Zev acknowledged.
“And, can you ask Kate to see me?” Sebastian leaned back in his sea “It’s time we have another talk.”
“Yes, alpha,” Zev replied.
