My Fated Human Luna Chapter 82
Gabriella POV
As I listen to Lake tell the Elder everything that happened with Belinda, my heart breaks for Alpha Blane. No father should have to bury his daughter. I look at my own father and see sadness in his eyes because I’m sure he is thinking the same thing I am. I know that what she has done cannot go unpunished, but it doesn’t make any of this easier for all that are involved. When we walk downstairs, I’m glad that Alpha Blane agreed to go to the living area instead of being there to watch what Lake’s about to do. We walk outside and the guards are holding Belinda as she screams. She starts to plead with Lake but he immediately silences her with his Alpha command. Elder Bradford steps forward and we all stand in silence as he sentences her. “Belinda Cross, by werewolf law you have committed the crime of using black magic to interfere with the mate bond of Alpha Lake Solace and Gabriella Lyons.” “The sentence for that crime is death.” “The sentence, will be carried out by Alpha Lake Solace of the Blood Rose Pack.” “May you find forgiveness in the goddess.” Five minutes ago, she was screaming for mercy and now she stands stalk still as Elder Bradford speaks. She is staring directly at Lake. I get a feeling in the pit of my stomach that something isn’t right.
As soon as the word death leaves his mouth, she smiles a sick smile. “You wolves are so self-righteous with your beliefs about the mating bonds and the goddess’s chosen mates.” She points at Lake “you would pick a human instead of your own kind.” “Your pathetic and the only one that will be dying here today is that b**ch” she says pointing at me. Lake is already shifting and moving toward her. I’m sure he realizes as I do that, she is the witch and not Belinda. My eyes lock on hers as she throws a blue energy ball in my direction.
Lake POV
When she starts to speak, she lets her aura free and I’m pissed. I fvcking knew she was going to be a problem. That’s why I wanted that b**ch dealt with quickly. I shift and start toward her. She does something to the warriors that are holding her and they fall to the ground. “We are going to rip her apart for helping Belinda and threatening our mate”, I say to Razor as he runs as fast as he can. We are almost to her when I watch the energy ball leave her hand. Razor whimpers but he lunges attempting to take the b**ch in his jaws. He clamps down on air. She is gone and he wh!ps his head back toward our mate. She is on the ground and everyone is around her. Archer is kneeling and I feel like my world was just shattered. I haven’t even gotten to love her or hold her. I haven’t gotten to mark or mate her. I shift and run over, but to my surprise they are helping her to stand. “How” I say as I come to stand in front of her and wrap her in my arms. Feeling the tingles just solidifies that she is alive and with me.
“Let’s go inside and I’ll explain everything” Gabriella says. Atticus appears with Alpha Blane and hands me a pair of shorts. I slip them on and we head to my office. Once we are inside, I lead Gabriella to the couch because I have to touch her right now. Razor is just starting to calm down after we thought that we lost her. Archer, Elder Bradford, Alpha Blane, and Atticus all take a seat. “Can someone please tell me what the hell happened out there” Blane says. “The witch shimmered to look like Belinda and attempted to kill my mate with an energy ball.” “Well, thank goddess she missed” Alpha Blane says. I look to Gabriella for the explanation.
Gabriella POV
“She didn’t miss.” “How is it possible you survived such an attack Gabriella,” Elder Bradford asks with curiosity in his voice. I look to my father and he nods. “One of our pack members is a powerful light witch.” I feel Lake pull me closer to his side. “My father and I know that I am a human living in a super natural world.” “I am strong and have trained as a warrior but I know that I am no match physically for a wolf, witch, or vampire.” “When I agreed to become Alpha, I did so with the condition that my sister take the t!tle with me.” “I wanted that not only because I love my sister and wanted to share everything withCcontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
her but because I have certain limitations as a human.” “That doesn’t mean I can’t be a great Alpha to my pack.” “Part of being a great Alpha is to recognize your own strengths and weaknesses.”
“After we had a rogue attack on the pack, my father and I decided it would be beneficial if Tabitha, the light witch, placed a protection spell on me.” Elder Bradford smiles, “I’m sure that black magic witch wasn’t expecting you to survive her attack.” “That was her mistake for underestimating you my dear” Elder Bradford says. I look at Lake and I can see pride in his eyes. “This is far from over and we will make them all pay for what they have done.” “Gentleman, I was wondering if I could speak to Lake alone and then we can discuss how to move forward.” Once they all leave the office, I go to stand but Lake holds me in place. “I really need you close right now Gabriella for myself and Razor.” I smile and k!ss his l!ps I sit back and take a breath.
“Lake, when we spoke about combining the packs earlier, I wasn’t fair to you.” He looks at me confused. “Since I was sixteen, I have had this plan in my head about what my future was going to be as the pack Alpha.” “I know you heard what I said about the reason I proposed my sister and I take dual Alpha roles in our pack.” “We need to discuss a fair way to move forward with our mating and taking on our Alpha roles.” “Gabriella” he says but I stop him. “Lake, nothing is going to change that you are my mate.” “You’re allowed to have feelings and wants.” “We are partners in this.” He smiles “what are you proposing love.” “I propose that we take our time and decide a fair way to combine our packs.” He takes my hand “ok it’s my turn now.”
Lake POV
“When I said to you that I was willing to move my pack and combine it with yours, I had my own reasons.” She looks at me confused. “The pack has had a lot of bad things happen recently.” “I was betrayed by my friend who was to be my Beta.” “He along with my father’s chosen mate killed him and tried to kill me.” Her face contorts to one of anger. “It’s ok love they have been dealt with.” “The fact that my father cared so little for me has tainted my t!tle and this pack.” “Combining our packs gives not only
myself but the pack members a fresh start without all this betrayal and death hanging over our heads.” “The other details I promise you we can work out together and I will make sure I share my opinion.” “Thank you, Lake” she says before I k!ss her l!ps gently. I pull back and she smiles “after we discuss how we move forward with the others, I would like for us to return to Scarlett Howl so you can meet the rest of my family.” “I would love that, Gabriella.” “I would also like us to complete the bond.” I smile “there is no rush Gabriella I can wait until you are ready.” She shocks me when she reaches up pulling my mouth down to hers. She k!sses me like I’m the air she needs to breathe. She pulls back when we are both breathless. “I’m ready” she says with a smile before she gets up, heading for the office door. A few minutes later, she returns with the other men and as she sits next to me, I say a prayer of thanks to the goddess for Gabriella Lyons.
