Luna on The Run: I Stole The Alpha’s Son -
Alpha On The Hunt Chapter 2
My father snarls and swings back at him, Axton moves quicker though, seeing it coming before hitting him again, his hands grab my father’s shirt, ripping him toward him and headbutting him. The resounding crack of their heads clashing makes my teeth ache as my father goes down like a sack of potatoes. Cane erupts with laughter, making me look at him. He lifts his glass and nods.
“Well, I guess your mate doesn’t hate you as much as I thought.” he chuckles. Osiris g****s and looks over at Axton, then shakes his head and lifts his hand waving his guards over.
“Get him out,” he orders and they grab my father.
“Really Axton, this better not be in the f*****g papers tomorrow!” Osiris snaps.
“If it is, I’m sure your rep will still stand Osiris, you’re good at putting the blame onto others. Don’t make out you didn’t tell him where she was. Derrick knows better than to step into your establishments without permission.” Axton snarls.
“No idea what you are talking about,” Osiris says, yet the way his lips tug in the corners and his eyes flicker dangerously, I could see the snake he is beneath the facade. Some intuitive sense that I have just been set up, filters through my thoughts.
“I was just being friendly,” Osiris replies, his eyes moving to
“And now you know her answer.” Axton growls, lifting my hand slightly and I step closer to him.
“Silly girl, you won’t last in the council if you aren’t playing on the right side of it. Being a woman you’re at even more of a disadvantage. I was willing to help you.”
“This was a power play!” Lexa snarls angrily that we didn’t pick up on it. My father’s pack is the second largest and because I was so focused on Axton I walked into a trap, one that could have seen me challenged for a title I am yet to claim within the city.
“Now that is where you are wrong, Alpha. I am not at a disadvantage. Once I take my title back, I step into power. And I will hold the second largest pack in this city, therefore you will be at a disadvantage. But you know that, that is why you invited me here.” he shrugs, neither denying nor admitting what he did.
“And you think you’re better off with him, that’s the only reason he wants you now, to take your pack, I would have let you be Luna, he’ll just make you his bitch.” Osiris laughs, walking off before I can answer. Lexa growls angrily in my head.
Axton shakes his head, tugging on my hand while I glare after the man. “Well I guess he showed his true colors, I guess I’ll corne with you lot then! I thought he liked me now, I’m wondering if he liked me a little too much, I ain’t nobody’s bitch, and certainly not interested in the D!” Cane chuckles
hopping off his stool. He stumbles, making me wonder how much he has drunk in such a short time. I reach out and grab his arm when Axton growls at me.
He grabs Cane’s arm to steady him. “This politics shit is hard, I should have stuck with mechanics, but no dad and Pete had to just go and croak on me, making me alpha!” Cane huffs.
“I tried to warn you, Cane.”
“That you did Alpha Axton.” he slurs.
“Eli!” Axton calls out and he instantly rushes over, grabbing Cane’s other arm from me.
“Man what is in those drinks, I think he was planning on making me his bitch. I think he slipped something into my drink. Thank the Goddess you’re here, Axton. My a*ss isn’t bitch material.” Cane slurs.
“As if I would let my mate wander off with the likes of him, and you. Don’t think I didn’t catch you checking her out!”
“Guilty but I’m harmless, you know that.”
“Luckily for you, I do know that,” Axton tells him before glancing around and waving his hand at Eli.
“Eli, make sure he gets home, and organize his patrols to be on the lookout.”
“Lookout for what, you think he likes my a*ss that much?” Cane snickers.
“No, but Alpha Osiris is up to something, and the fact that Elder Stiles has been missing for a few weeks since he returned, we can’t be too careful.” Axton answers. Elder Stiles is missing? I have so many questions yet the man of the hour, Axton seems to have the answers which I don’t really feel like getting into another argument with him, so I know those answers will have to wait. But it makes me wonder if mom knows because she never mentioned he was missing.
Alpha Cane stumbles. “Maybe we should-” I began to offer my father’s warriors to patrol Cane’s borders. “No, Eli will handle it, and take care of him.”
“Wait, you think Osiris did something to his drink?”
“No, Cane doesn’t drink, his father was a bad alcoholic. Yet he has stepped into a role he was hoping would be left to his older brother. Unfortunately, Osiris got to him before I could.” Axton answers as we watch Eli haul him out.
“Then why would he drink?” I ask and Axton sighs, glancing around before he looks back at me. “Not here,” he mutters, wrapping his arm around my waist and tugging me closer. Axton leads me out of the club and back toward the council chambers.
“Alpha Cane?” I ask.
“His father and brother were both killed a few weeks back in a car accident. Cane has never wanted the title. It was forced on him. I tried to warn him off Osiris, but Cane thought Osiris was just being friendly. Osiris doesn’t do friendly, so you need to steer clear of him.”
“Okay.” I tell him, a little disappointed I didn’t see through his facade though Lexa was on edge the moment we stepped into the club with them.
“Okay?” Axton stops in his tracks to look at me.
“Huh?” I ask confused.
“You’ll stay away from him?” after what he told me I would be insane not to! Why would I question that, I don’t trust any of them anyway, though Cane does seem harmless.
“I’m nobody’s bitch.” I tell him. Axton smirks.
“No you’re not. But I still thought you would disagree since I said it.” he chuckles.
“So I shouldn’t agree, should I go back, maybe I should, he did say I could be his Luna?” I mock and turn. Axton growls and his arm tugs me back to him.
“You’re only allowed to be my Luna, nobody’s else’s.” he snarls.
“Calm your farm, I am nobody’s Luna. Not unless you want to be Lupha.” I chuckle.
“A what?” I shake my head not willing to repeat what Michelle keeps calling him behind his back.
Axton’s brows furrow, and I become very aware of the fact he still has me in his grasp when I should be trying to get back to the boys, he is supposed to have them for the weekend. That thought suddenly saddens me knowing I am handing them over, but I have enough battles on my hands and a custody one is not one I want to add to the list.
