Chereads / The Lost Luna 1 / Chapter 13 - chapter thirteen

Chapter 13 - chapter thirteen

The heavy traffic that had already combusted at the entrance of the human town was unbearable. To any other person who had no clue about what was happening, they would have just assumed that a prominent person was entering the vicinity. Who would have ever thought that this alleged person was not a human but an Alpha werewolf?

''Are you excited?'' alpha Jeremiah Templeton asked his wife who was seated next to him in the passenger seat. The anxiousness and nervousness that they both carried mixed with excitement clearly showed that everyone was doubting the mission.

''It has been 17 years since we invested in this mission, do you think we made the wrong decision? To answer your question, I am excited. I'm excited to see the sacrifices of Our Fathers finally paying off. We need to make sure that we use these people to our full advantage. I'm hoping that the boys have trained her properly.'' Luna Mira responded. She kept a straight face as she picked through the window watching the convoy of men and the humans that were standing on the side of the road trying to catch a glimpse of whoever was inside those tinted car windows.

''Humans. As naive and gullible as possible.'' Luna Mira Comments, losing count of all the humans that now appeared like fans.

''They lack knowledge. their civilization is weak and greedy. If only they knew what a little bit of redemption and submission would do to them. Even though stupid and unknowing, the humans are also proud. They have rejected our existence and tried to shut that door of possibility permanently. To them, we are nothing more than a fairytale.'' alpha Jeremiah speaks in a tone of distaste.

''You failed in your mission to get that little human town in our grasp.'' the lunar response with an irritated voice.

''I wouldn't call wiping an entire town failure. Are you Suggesting you would have done better?'' alpha Jeremiah asks in a tonne of amusement.

''I certainly am. I am way better than you not only in intelligence but also in combat.'' The lunar answers proudly.

'' I suppose I will take you up on that statement. Once we are back in the Castle, I'm going to have to taste your combat skills myself. Perhaps you have never really fought a real soldier.'' Alpha Jeremiah States with undefined excitement. It had been years since he entered the battlefield with his wife. Mate or not, he loved her dearly.

''And what makes you think you are a real soldier? Just because you go to battle with the people does not mean you gained their true character traits of a soldier. You have trained because you are an Alpha and you had to lead by example. This is not in your blood and we both know it. I am going to keep reminding you this for the rest of my life.''

''It's a shame to see how far bitterness takes you. You hold on to it like a grudge instead of letting it make you grow into a better person. Trust me when I tell you that I have gone through much more than you have and I still stand smiling and drooling this Kingdom the way it needs to be ruled.'' alpha Jeremiah responds in a cool tone.

'' if only everyone else thought like that. You might have fooled the Citizens, but you forget the council that is still loyal to the previous Alpha, and some of the soldiers pledged allegiance to him and not his throne. You will have to do much more than pretend to be a real soldier in order to earn the trust of the people who will stand by you and fight for your Empire. There's nothing real about you. You are not a soldier, You're just a simple werewolf who got the Crown out of treachery.'' Luna Mira states in bitterness. '' You didn't care the creatures you swept away as long as it meant you will get the power you desire.''

'' May I remind you, my love, I did not do this on my own.'' alpha Jeremiah States.

'' Of course, you didn't. You did it with your psychopath father.'' Luna answers unshaken.

Alpha Jeremiah only smiles. It has been long and he had already gotten used to his wife's remarks. They honestly amused him. To him, he had handled the rebellion perfectly and broken her just the way he wanted her to be. But even with that, Luna Myra was still high-spirited and determined to point out the bad doings of her husband.

''You and I know very well that what we did has raised our community to the status that it now has.'' alpha Jeremiah answers in pride.

''You rule with an Iron Fist, no one loves you and no one shows you respect, to begin with. you made yourself Alpha and you had to betray and murder are the werewolves who stood in your way. you do not deserve that crown.''

''Come down wife, or else I will collar you again. it has been years since I got the privilege of doing that.'' alpha Jeremiah comments in a low tone.

''And are you really sure you still have the guts to do so? I am your queen and as much as I don't like that, it has been 11 years with the both of us on that throne. you don't just get to wake up one day and said to put the queen of the pack in a collar inside of the dungeon. the people would never let that happen.'' she answers in a higher tone.

'' Nice to see you're getting confident. I'm going to revisit your rules once we get back home.''

'' it is not home if your heart is not there.''
