"so he's found his mate hasn't he?"
Asked Antonio Cheus, Alpha of the blue moon pack, also Dorian's direct rival for years.
"Yes father"
Replied Lucas,his son and next alpha of their pack.
"Hmm, who's she?"Antonio asked.
" A local girl who lives at LC district.
born July 7th xxxx,
mother, father still alive,
a brother and younger sister,
dropped out of school few years back.
Former writer at compact book company and also..."
Lucas stopped talking once his father motioned for him to,his eyes looked at a distance but thoughtfully thinking.
"How secure is this girl?"
He asked after a while of silence.
"Currently she lives with him at his manor,his estate is tightly secured,we wouldn't be able to get in even with the secret spies we have there."
"Hmm" he paused
"And her family?"
"Zero security Alpha"
Lucas replied calling his father by his title cause even though Antonio was his father,he was still the alpha.
"I see,_inform our warrior spies to keep a close tab on the girl,watch for any breach"
He ordered getting up.
Him and Dorian have been foes for years and for a long time in history.
That lycan had killed his people, destroyed most of his lands,taken his properties but most painful
That lycan had killed his mate and he would do the same,he would make the man bleed in the pool of his own blood right after ripping the life out of his woman like he did him long time ago.
Until he avenged his mate,he would never be at peace.
He walked out of the room after giving his son his order but then he encountered someone whose face alone made him mad.
Rosa
His daughter.
His disappointment.
She was his daughter but never acted like one,she was a half shifter which meant she had the shifter blood but couldn't shift form,she was a weakling and added to all that,she didn't wish to join in his alpha lineage to lead the pack like his son.
Rather,she chose to become a model,and even though she was successful in that aspect,She was a failure and disgrace to their family name which was why he forbade her from living in the pack house,so if she was here,it was probably only to visit her brother.
Saying no words,he walked past her and she made no attempts to talk to him either cause she already knew he would ignore.

××××××××××××××××××
The continuous thud against the door didn't seem like much of an effect and soon,it became a loud panicky bang.
Penelope would have sworn she never heard Dorian shut and lock the door but right now,the only thing she wanted to do after running towards the door was to get out but this FREAKING door wasn't opening.
"Help!" She banged louder
"Anyone help! please!"
She could feel the man's presence inching closer and soon,she felt her hair being tugged harshly making her head tilt backwards,her eyes came in direct contact with his which were mixed colours of gold and black.
He had a lust in his eyes which Penelope recognized as blood lust.
His tongue stuck out of his mouth, licking briefly over his slightly dark lip as his eyes gorked at her neck.
"I smell the blood that keeps me restless"
He voiced in a craving whisper,his hand coming up to her cheek,he stuck a finger of his out and accordingly,the nail on that finger elongated into a sharp pointy tip.
Penelope tried to free herself in a futile struggle but that only made the man's eyes grow darker and he tugged her hair even harder causing her to wince in pain.
"Please" she begged and soon felt the tip of his nail against her cheek before it pierced on her skin causing a stinging pain,he then drew his nail in a quick swap cutting a small line which was immediately clouded by red liquid. Taking the same finger which was now coated in her blood to his lip,his tongue flicked a lick and his eyes rolled slightly back as he basked in the sweet taste but immediately those eyes opened,a hungry burning fire of gold could be seen in them.
"More!"
At once,his fangs bared at her neck right before he bursted into a thin pile of dust when a strong hand squeezed at his throat killing him instantly.
Penelope felt a strong arm wrap around her immediately after but she was still in a shock/frightened state to know when or who until his minty Cologne hit her nostrils for her to know who was holding her.
"Dorian"
His name left her lips in a relieved sigh as tears flooded down her cheek.
.

.
While in his meeting, Dorian was supposed to block his mind link as it was rather distracting cause few of his lycan warriors inside or outside the building were using the mind link to communicate so it was distracting for him but he didn't block it in case something important passed through.
The meeting had been going on for over twenty minutes now and would soon be over.
Azrael who was his personal assistant in the human realm approached with a document file which Dorian was to sign as a patet but right before he could pass the file,he fell to his knees,his hand grabbing his head at the pain which shot through at the ALPHA'S triggered emotion.
[Something's wrong with Luna]
A mind link passed through from Boris,the lycan who was made to stand outside his office.
Disregarding every board member's presence, Dorian dashed out of the room, followed behind by his beta who was still holding his head in agony.
Dorian ran to the stairs,his body anxious with fear,he ran down with a fast pace which wasn't fast enough so instantly,he shifted to his wolf, thankfully they were no people around,not like that thought crossed his mind.
.
.
[Something's wrong with Luna]
Was the mind link Boris had passed across when he heard their Luna's cry for help as he dashed into the office but immediately after,he thumped to his knees,his hand grasping his head in pain.
Their Alpha was angry.
Right after he recovers from the pain,the door of the office was thrown open and a black wolf dashed in.
Slamming it's body against the door didn't seem to work so Dorian shifted back,he didn't remember locking the door. Drawing back,he threw his leg at a great momentum breaking the lock therefore plunging the door open almost destroying it's hinges and the moment he saw the sight before him,he lost it,his hand which had partially shifted crushed the throat of the threat until he was no more.

Dorian was surprised he was still able to keep his human form with the amount of rage he was feeling within him,his mate was trembling terribly in his arms and the only thing he could do was to hold her,just hold her and try to calm her down with soothing and rhythmically smooth rubs against her back.
Her hand which were still trembling held his body tightly,her palm fisting his coat.
[CALL RAPHAEL]
Dorian mind linked cause he knew if he didn't,his voice would certainly scare her instead of give comfort.
Azrael who heard the ALPHA'S order went out of the room where he encountered Felix who seemed to be rushing in.
"What happened?"
He looked anxious,seemed he had also heard Boris' mind link earlier.
"Luna was attacked"
Felix gasped at azrael's reply.
"Penelope?"
He asked with eyes wide.
"No Patricia,who else is our Luna"
Azrael asked annoyed before walking out.
.
.
Leading his mate towards the bed,he made her sit,all these while she never loosened her hand on him,it was as though she feared he would disappear if she did.
"Sh sh, it's okay,am here, I'm here,I won't let anyone hurt you" he assured in a whisper so soft and assuring but then a frown formed between his brows and in sync, Boris who was inside the room with them held his head in pain.
Dorian was angry again once he spotted the blood stain on her Rosey cheeks which was also stained with tears.
His thumb made it to her cheek and he noticed the cut which slit from her cheek allowing blood to seep out,he could feel his jaw tightening in.
His mate was hurt.
He didn't like this at all,his office didn't contain a first aid kit as he never needed it,his head shuffled on what to do and only one thought flew through his mind, without thinking,his mouth neared her face and his tongue brushed against her wound,long enough for his plasma to coat her wound therefore closing the tear up as it healed.
Penelope was still in shock/fear to even realise what he had done but once she did,her cheeks coated in deep red but she never pulled away, seemed she was too frightened to feel embarrassed.
What she thought he had done only was lick the blood off her cheek, only he did more than that by actually healing her wound.

"You bought the company?"
Exclaimed Samantha who had just gotten the knowledge of what Raphael had done.
"That's right my sweet Rose" he replied taking his hand into her hair only to loosen it's band and have it sprawl down her shoulders giving his fingers access to rave through her soft hair.
He had earlier come to take her out to lunch as always and currently they were in his car which was parked away from where they just had lunch .
"You said I shouldn't come to your workplace and I've fulfilled your wish,I won't come to your workplace"
He smiled.
"I'll come to my workplace rather"
His workplace,as in the company she worked in which was now his
"At least now we can spend more time together, don't you agree?"
He twirled few strands of her blonde hair around his finger.
"Raphael please just stop all these craziness, I'm tired of it"
Who would think a sane person would buy a whole company just because of a remark she made.
"Craziness?"
He asked referring to her request but then laughed .
"Craziness" he repeated like a person who'd lost their mind.
"Baby girl,you seem to forget that I'm crazy when it comes to you"
He said staring at her intensely,his hand moving away from her hair to her tample.
"You drive me crazy baby girl"
He whispered like a man intoxicated
"Crazy for these beautiful eyes"
His touch was light as they rolled down further.
"Crazy for these beautiful lips"
Tilting his head a little,he intended to possess those lips which drove him insane with want when his phone vibrated from his pocket.
His eyes were the first to move,then his head as he pulled his phone out, looking at the caller ID,a small frown formed between his brows before he answered but then the crease between his brows got deeper while he listened to whatever the person was saying at the other end but once the call was over,his attention fell back at her.
"I'll be having your work desk moved to my office tomorrow"
He said raving her hair backwards.
"As for now, there's something I have to take care of"
Taking hold of the band which he loosened earlier,he raved her hair into a lose pony.
"Don't miss me too much"
He drew her face close, giving a kiss which lingered longer than intended before getting out of the car.
Rex,his assigned guard and driver to Samantha stood outside the car,his hands at his front while standing at an ease posture,a black communication kit hooked by his ear.
"Take her back to the company"
"Yes sir"
He replied getting into the car,from the front view mirror,he could see the woman sitted behind having a breakdown.
'(Are you alright miss)
He wanted to ask but knowing the kind of man he worked for, unless he wished to loose his job or his life rather,he chose to keep to himself,he understood what kind of problems she was going through,his boss abused her,not physically No,never had he once seen him raise his hand at her,he didn't do that kind. He abused her in different ways, mentally, manipulatively and emotionally,he abused her using those methods. He could only sympathize internally for her but kept his words to himself.
