The Half Blood Luna
The Half B***d Luna Chapter 10

Ella’s POV

I am so dead there is no doubt in my mind about it. I tried to kill my f*****g alpha without knowing who he was! Why, just why does it have to be the alpha that I always have to piss off? First, it was alpha Grey, and now it’s alpha Klaus. What the hell was he doing so deep in the woods at 3:30 in the morning for God’s sake?

The b***d drained from my face from what Joseph said. I slowly turned my head towards the injured guy, who was actually alpha Klaus. He was staring at me intently. I was staring at him in complete shock. If running away and getting caught wasn’t bad enough, add in the attempt to kill the alpha, and I will definitely receive a death sentence, no doubt about it. What should I do now? Beg for forgiveness? Tell him I didn’t really mean to kill him? Well, I wanted to kill him, I can’t lie about it. And I am sure as hell not gonna beg anyone in my final moments. So, I said nothing, I just kept staring at him.

“Now you have nothing to say?” alpha Klaus asked with raised eyebrows. His tone was a little less angry than I assumed it would. Maybe there is hope for me.

I looked down to the ground and answered in a small voice “I didn’t know you were the alpha when I threw the knives at you”

“It doesn’t matter who I f*****g was, you tried to kill a member of your own pack!” he shouted in rage and took a step towards me. I immediately took one step back, and looked up at him in fear. This is probably the moment he will shift back to his wolf form and rip me to shreds like he did alpha Grey. I’ve never been this scared before in my life, but I refused to let it show. My tears were threatening to fall down, I did everything I could to not let that happen. If I’m going to die, might as well do it as bravely as I can. He was looking at Joseph, and Joseph was looking at him. They were having a private conversation in their heads.

Alpha Klaus sighed in frustration and said in a deadly low voice “Joseph, take her back to the pack house and lock her up in a cell. She will receive her punishment first thing in the morning”

I am so dead there is no doubt in my mind about it. I tried to kill my f*****g alpha without knowing who he was! Why, just why does it have to be the alpha that I always have to piss off? First, it was alpha Grey, and now it’s alpha Klaus. What the hell was he doing so deep in the woods at 3:30 in the morning for God’s sake?

Morning? Why not now? Of course, he wants to punish me in public. He’s going to make an example out of me and show them what happens when you break the rules of the new alpha. He was just the same as alpha Grey. I am going to die the most horrible death tomorrow, no doubt about it.

“Do you have a wolf Ella?” joseph asked me. I couldn’t help but notice that his eyes were a little sad at the alpha’s decision. He probably wanted to get things over with and finish me off right now.

“No, I am a half b***d with no wolf” I answer unashamed of who I am. I expected him to be disgusted; as most pure bloods are, but if he was, he didn’t let it show.

“Ok then, we have a long walk ahead of us, let’s go” he gestured to me to start walking

I turned right and saw the rest of the wolves, along with alpha Klaus’s wolf, disappear into the forest. It was a very long walk considering how close I got to reaching the town. Neither of us broke the silence for a while. I had no intension of speaking to him at all. He was probably the alpha’s beta, since he trusted him to get me back to the pack house. Not to mention the private conversation they were having about me earlier. He was probably telling him all the monstrous ways the alpha could kill me in public to deliver the right message. He broke the silence by asking me curiously.

“Why were you running away from the pack Ella?”

I didn’t want to answer him. My history with the last beta involved a lot of pain and humiliation, I’ve made up my mind about all of them.

“Because you are a half b***d?” he tried to answer his own question when I didn’t give him one

I kept my mouth shut. I was probably pissing him off by refusing to cooperate with him, but I didn’t care. He’s not going to touch me until tomorrow morning, I was sure of it.

He gave up the conversation after that, and we continued our journey back to the pack house in silence. About ten minutes before reaching the pack house, I was becoming aware that my body was screaming in pain, especially my back. All the adrenaline I felt from the running and fear of meeting the new alpha was leaving my body, and making me aware that I was actually still hurt. I vaguely remembered that I landed hard on my back when Joseph collided with me. It was becoming harder to walk, and breathe. Joseph must have felt something was wrong, when I felt his hand lightly touch my shoulder. He was walking behind me, so he couldn’t actually see how much pain I was trying to hide from him.

“Hey Ella, were you hurt somewhere when I ran into you before?” he asked warily

“Hey Ella, were you hurt somewhere when I ran into you before?” he asked warily

I didn’t believe his fake concern for me, not for one second. I flinched away from his touch and turned to him, trying to hide the pain from my face.

“Don’t touch me” I hissed at him

He didn’t look phased by my hostility, but raised his hands a little.

“Ok, I’m not going to touch you. We can take a break for a few minutes, I don’t mind” he said gently

I looked at him in suspicion. Why the hell was he being nice to me? It was an act, I told myself. Don’t fall for it Ella.

“I don’t want to take a break” I lied and started walking again. I kept pushing myself until we finally made it back. The pack house was still empty when we walked in. I didn’t need to be directed back to the cells, since I knew where it was. Ironically, I was the one guiding him instead of the other way around, since this was the first time he sat foot inside the house. I reached the first cell, opened the door for myself, and walked inside. Joseph was locking the door, when I asked him through the small opening on the top of the door.

“Can you tell me what time it is?”

He looked down at his wrist watch and said “it is 4:15”

Then he left me all alone. I sighed and collapsed on the ground instantly from the pain. Great, the submission ceremony will start at 7:30, which gives me about three more hours to live.
