Chapter 76
Luna On The Run – I Stole The Alpha’s Sons Chapter 76
Axton POV
Friday
The Supernatural council placed an official sanction on me, barring me from leaving the city for the next two weeks. Meaning Elena now has an extra two weeks to her Alpha anonymity clause. And I could not leave the city, therefore I could not see her or the kids unless by some miracle she came here.
Khan is furious, not so much with her but more so with me, yet still he is a little peeved that Elena would take it that far which now means unless she chooses to, I won’t see the boys today or have them for the weekend.
I haven’t heard a single word from her since, absolutely nothing, despite my constant messages. So for now, I had to suck it up or pay the anonymity breach fee. This doesn’t phase me, but Eli does not think it is in our best interest to anger Marco with how much influence he has within the councils.
Hearing the door open, Eli walks in with a smile on his face, holding the paperwork I have been waiting for.
“You got it?” I ask him, leaning forward.
“Yep, you officially own every scrap of land around her pack,” Eli confirms, handing me the paperwork. I chuckle. Ele- na is going to regret angering me because by midweek I will have organized for construction to start right along her bor- ders. Let’s see how she likes the noise. I glance down at the
paperwork and its massive stamp of approval, along with the council agreement for work to start.
“You’re a fool. You’ll only anger her more.” Khan huffs at
“That’s the point,” I reminded him. She’ll have to come to the city and I own this city, so nothing gets past me and nei- ther will she. If Elena wants to play silly little games. She is about to learn who she is playing against.
Khan laughs at my thoughts. “No, you’re about to learn. who you’re playing against.” he snickers.
“And I can’t wait to see her put you in place,” he adds.
“You’re aware you’re my wolf, right? Not hers! You should be on my side!” I snarl at him and I see Eli watching me. He raises an eyebrow at me while I argue with my wolf.
“But she is my mate. Sorry, but if I gotta choose sides. I choose the one where my throat doesn’t get cut in my sleep.” I shake my head at him. He seriously overestimates her. She has no influence beside Marco. My brows furrow, knowing that Marco is also one of my biggest assets.
I ponder his words when I feel the edges of my mind creeping up with an idea, one that would force her back into the city. One that would hurt her more than anything. Filing for full custody, she would never survive against my legal team. The disgraced daughter of Alpha Derrick, porn Queen. Yeah, that is not a case she would win.
“Don’t you fucking dare!” Khan snarls angrily in my head.
“Well, I don’t see you coming up with any great ideas on
how to force her back to us!” I retorted. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“You damn bonehead, you want her back fucking earn her back. There’s an idea you haven’t tried!” Khan snaps at me be- fore wandering off. I shake my head. Elena is stubborn, and not to mention she hates my guts.
Eli clicks his fingers in front of my face, snapping me out of my thoughts, and I peer up at him.
“The weekly council meeting?” Oh shit. I jump to my feet. Wouldn’t look good if the person who organized these now weekly meetings didn’t actually show up for them. Eli shakes his head at me as I snatch my keys and wallet off the desk be- fore walking out the door.
“We had two more missing persons reported last night,” Eli tells me as we drive to the council chambers.
“Yeah, Marco told me the other day that even some of the human towns have been hit,” I tell him, and he sighs.
“This isn’t good, this will cause hysteria and supernatural communities are under enough fire as it is with the human governments. If we don’t figure out who is behind it. Soon they may intervene,” Eli growls. That is the last thing we need.
Entire cities have been shut down by human governments when they have stepped in. That happens and it will cause ri- ots. I care little for humans, but they don’t stand a chance in this area, and I supply not only the manufacturing, but we also own the biggest trucking company in the state. We sup- ply half the human towns surrounding the city. If they be- come scared and back out, it won’t be good for business.
“We’ll figure it out. They are mainly hitting the city. And
the missing reports for the surrounding areas don’t look too much out of the ordinary, considering the crime rates in some of those towns.” I remind him.
“Yeah, but last night, both of the people taken were chil- dren. That will bring the media and a lot of unwanted atten- tion.” Eli says, and I glance at him.
“What?” I ask him, wondering why he didn’t tell me this
earlier.
“Yep, Rogue children. They found a small settlement in the Town of Briggs.” my brows furrowed. This was the first time we have heard of children being taken. Usually, adults and most of the bodies we have located, but also several just vanished.
Yet the evidence points to vamps. Werewolf communities are the biggest target for rogue vamps. Our blood strength- ens them, and also makes them immune to our bite, which to vamps is poisonous. But not only that, our blood is addictive.
Whereas the only major power play they truly have over us is their mind compulsion. In our wolf form, we can’t be compelled, but in our human form, we are basically human and easily manipulated. Not only that, they were ten times. faster than us. But at least they don’t have venom as we do. Though their bite too can be addictive.
It makes me wonder how Elena didn’t become addicted to Jake’s bite. Yet it also makes me wonder how much effect his compulsion had over her.
“I mind-linked the secretary. She will have some files for you to collect before we go to the meeting.” I tell Eli, and he nods.
Pulling up at the council, we climb out of the car and head to the front sliding doors, and pass security. We are greeted with their metal detectors, but once noticing who I am, they quickly step aside.
“Alpha!” the security guard nods and Eli heads to the front. counter. Moving through the building’s corridors, I look for the conference room when I hear Derrick going ballistic at somebody, no doubt probably Thomas. Glancing at my watch, I am only ten minutes late. Eli nudges me, passing me the paperwork.
I glance down at the family court paperwork and smirk. Elena has no idea who she is messing with. Using my elbow, I push the door open and step inside.
A growl slips out of me as Derrick continues his yelling. “Derrick! That is enough.” Lifting my eyes from the paperwork, my eyes take in the room only to see Elena standing toe to toe with her father in the middle of the room. And she looks furi- ous and fucking gorgeous.
Elena smiles when I step in. “Alpha,” she purrs.
“Mate,” I growl, wondering what the hell she is doing here. and how she got past my borders without me knowing.
That question is answered when I see Marco sitting in his usual seat. Moving to the head of the desk, Elena watches me before moving toward me. I set the paperwork on the desk before Eli snatches it up, folds it, and stuffs it in his suit jacket.
I give him a questioning look, but he only shrugs. Silence falls in the room, the tension so thick you could cut it with a knife. Derrick reluctantly takes his seat and Elena sighs and I smile. She will not win whatever it is she is trying to do here.
The other alphas watch me to see if I would intervene but I can’t wait for her to turn redfaced when she is forced to leave, and locked in the holding cells. She won’t escape me there!
“Derrick out!” she says, and he growls, glaring at her over his shoulder. Marco chuckles, watching her, but Derrick ig- nores his daughter.
“Isn’t this meeting for Alphas only?” she questions, her eyes going to me.
“Do you have a pack within my city limits?” I ask her, and her eyes flash with anger. She may own the pack, but they haven’t submitted to her, therefore she is not their Alpha.
Elena grabs an envelope off of the table and wanders over to me, yet my eyes trail over her, her little black dress showing off her curves and she definitely drew attention from the other alphas. Which makes me growl when I spot Thomas’ s eyes on her damn legs and Cedric’s on her ass. They avert their gaze and she tosses the envelope on the table in front of
“What’s this?” I ask her and she shrugs.
I shake my head, tearing it open when her hands fall on my shoulders behind me. Pulling the contents out, Eli sucks in a breath and I glance at the photos before shoving them back inside before anyone can see. A second later, I feel her breath sweep across my neck.
“Now what will it be, mate?” she whispers and I swallow. Fuck!
My eyes move over the other council members before falling on Derrick.
“Derrick, get out!” I order and his mouth falls open, along with every other alpha in the room.
“What?” he exclaims.
“Get out!” I snarl at him before nodding to security to re- move him. Derrick looks around frantically, but to save em- barrassment, he quickly gets up. He glares at Elena behind
“You’re making a mistake!”
“So every alpha keeps saying.” Elena retorts. She squeezes my shoulders before pecking my cheek. She giggles and I watch Derrick storm out of the room as Elena moves to take his seat beside Eli.
F*ck!
