Chapter 115

Her Cold-Hearted Alpha Chapter 115

Tension

KIARA

It had been three days since we returned , and we had made our way straight to The Blood Moon Pack

. It felt strange to return here , knowing that it was no longer my pack . Not to mention the eyes that

followed me , everyone addressed me as Queen Luna , I felt strange .

Being apart from Alejandro for even a few hours was difficult , and I realised how important the mate

bond was . Not to mention , I felt extra possessive of him whenever a she – wolf checked him out . I

didn’t have much time to ponder over it . W e were busy planning and preparing for Endora . With

Grandma Amelia’s help , we were searching for the land where the witch may have been buried .

We needed to stop her before she was able to do whatever strange plans she had in mind . I had told

Grandma Amelia , Damon and Liam about my baby , but apart from that , we were still keeping it a

secret . Aunty Indy was not doing great , she didn’t leave her room and refused to even speak to

Alejandro when he had requested it . He almost lost it and would have snapped if I hadn’t been there to

calm him down .

I knew his patience was wearing thin and I knew that I wouldn’t be able to contain him for much longer .

It was now just after training , Alejandro had joined Liam and the rest . I had joined in and without my

ankle flaring up , I was faster than ever , not to mention being mated to the Lycan King himself gave me

more strength too . I wiped the sweat from my forehead as I bent over .

I was glad training was over for the day , I looked at the three men who were on the floor breathing

heavily . Each one looked stunned or in awe . If I wasn’t s o breathless , I would have found it funny .

Not to mention , Alejandro had watched them dangerously as we sparred .

I’m sure they were scared to attack me and had stuck to defence for most of the match . ” It seems like

our Queen is rather strong … Let’s spar . ” Mom’s voice came from behind me . My heart thumped as I

turned to look at her . I wasn’t the only strong female around .

Yes , Mom and I always sparred , but I was never able to defeat her … and we never sparred in public .

Dad stood by Moms ‘ side , and Alejandro crossed his arms . I bit my lip trying not to admire how good

he looked … my eyes dipping to his defined V and the urge to drop to my knees and lick A growl

snapped me out of my thoughts , and I blushed , seeing Alejandro staring at me .

‘ Keep thinking that , Amore Mio , and I’ll fucking lose control . ‘ His voice came through the link . Even

my wolf felt restless at those words . ‘ I wouldn’t mind … ‘ ” Ahem ! ” Mom said smirking , and I knew

she knew we were mind linking . ‘ Maybe later .

‘ I added , before looking at her . ” Seems like your mate’s going to be knocked on her ass by mine . ”

Alejandro remarked to Dad . ” I’m rooting for them both . ” He replied . I moved back and looked at

Mom , ” Are we doing hand to hand or weapons ? ” ” Hand to hand should be fine . ” She replied ,

running her fingers through her hair . I nodded and we began circling . Everyone was watching , whilst

Raven stood there with a smirk on her face .

” Good luck ladies ! Show these men how Queens spar ! ” ” Can you not be so loud ? ” Damon

whispered , prodding her waist . I didn’t miss Liam glance between them , frowning slightly as he

looked away . I didn’t have time to ponder on it when Mom was in front of me in a flash .

I blocked , slamming her to the side . Her eyes widened in surprise before she spun around and aimed

a kick at me . Mom and I had always had very different styles . Although Mom taught me , she always

went for the offence , I was the type to go for the defence unless I needed to resort t o violence . We

were a blur of kicks and punches .

Sparring with Mom was like a dance perfected over years of practice . The only difference was , I was

stronger , faster and more agile than before . I gasped when I kicked Mom straight in the chest ,

knocking her back . ” Shit ! ” I had expected her to block that , Dad was by her side , but Mom raised

her hand .

Her eyes flashed silver . ” I’m fine . That was a good one … Let’s ” carry on . I heard Alejandro snicker ,

and I glared at him as Dad looked at Mom in concern . ” I’m fine , baby . ” Mom reassured him . ” Wow ,

go Kia ! ” Raven whistled .

Dad nodded and stepped away , arms crossed as he gave Alejandro a murderous glare . ” For now .

Until she knocks you on your ass again . ” Alejandro mocked . Mom frowned at him , and I sighed . He

loved to annoy my parents a lot .

Then again , he liked to annoy everyone … I swear by Selene , he is so different when it comes to me .

Mom lunged at me but I blocked her before doing a flip and aiming a kick at her knee . After feigning a

punch , I crouched down and kicked her hard in the stomach .

She staggered back , coughing , and I really didn’t want to hurt her anymore , I needed to end this .

Spinning around , I lunged at her . She raised her arm , but weirdly she was slower than normal ; that

or I was a lot faster . I grabbed her by the shoulders slamming her to the ground as I straddled her ,

pinning her wrists by her head . Gasps filled the training grounds and Mom stared at me completely

shocked .

” Wow … ” Liam whistled . ” I win ? ” I asked stunned , as claps broke out . ” You’re fast … ” Mom

exclaimed , stunned . ” There’s only one person who I know is ” Dad said , coming over as I got faster

… off Mom , he helped her up . I knew he meant Alejandro . Dad smiled proudly at m e before kissing

Mom , and I took her hand , letting my healing rush through her . I knew I had probably left a few

bruises on her .

” That’s my girl . ” Alejandro said , motioning for me to come over . I walked over , not missing how the

sun glinted off his nipple piercings , making m e lick my lips . I wrapped my arms around his neck , and

he placed his hands on my ass as he kissed me .

I heard Dad growl the moment Alejandro squeezed my ass . ” What the fuck is your problem ? ” He

asked Dad when we broke away . Liam dismissed the warriors , and I was glad . I did not want a

showdown . ” That’s my daughter . ” Dad said , disapprovingly .

” Yeah , at least she ain’t my sister . Alejandro shot back with a cold glare . I sighed , did he have to go

there ? >> ” Elijah . ” Mom said . ” Alejandro … ” I whispered , caressing his arms . ” Just saying , I

don’t appreciate anyone telling me what the fuck I should and shouldn’t do with my mate . ” He growled

, glaring at Dad . ” I’m not a fucking kid . “

I knew things were tense with the upcoming events , not to mention Aunty Indy was really irritating

Alejandro . His patience was wearing out . He also hated Damon around me , something which was

hard to avoid considering he was the future Beta of this pack .

” It’s called having some damn control in front of her father . ” Dad growled . ” Dad , come on . ” Liam

said , frowning . Like me , he knew things were not going to go well if this continued . ” Just the way

you have control , huh ? ” Alejandro remarked .

” Ok , can I not leave you two alone for even an hour ? ” Rafael’s voice came , and I breathed in relief .

” Shall we get to some actual planning rather than you two just snapping at each other’s throats ? ” ”

Stay the fuck out of my business . ” Alejandro shot at him .

Before turning his murderous gaze towards Dad . ” She’s mine and what I do to her , is none of your

fucking business . I mean , you should know what goes down between mates . Just picture that and ten

times more .

” He added tauntingly . I closed my eyes as Dad growled and Mom had to pull him back . I ran my hand

down Alejandro’s chest , kissing his neck . ‘ Calm down , my sexy beast … What’s wrong ? ” I asked

quietly . I knew there was more to it than he was letting on .

Everyone was on edge , snapping at each other’s necks , but we needed to remain rational . ‘ Nothing .

‘ He sighed , wrapping his arms around me , and once again he placed his hand on my ass . He

couldn’t keep his hands off of me and already told me he loved my ass in yoga pants .

I just hoped Dad wouldn’t speak this time . Sure enough , I saw Dad walk off ahead , heading back

towards home , his anger rolling off him in waves . Like always , we would shower and then get to

planning . With each passing day , things were becoming tenser , and I was worried too . Many of

Alejandro’s men would be coming here and some already were , working on setting up traps and

making it harder to breach the pack .

However , this pack was not built as securely as Alejandro’s , and there were too many trees around .

Too many places t o hide . There was also the fact that all packs were exposed , and we were riding on

Delsanra’s words . Everyone had been uncertain , apart from Rayhan and I , both o of whom believed

her .

So the decision was made , Darien would remain at our pack , and Rayhan would head his dad’s pack .

Marcel had joined us here last night as well , and although Alejandro didn’t trust him completely ,

I did . It was later in the morning , and we had all showered , eaten , and were now in the meeting room

, with Beta Aaron , Dad , Rafael , Mom , Damon , Marcel , Liam and Alpha Allen . Although other

Alphas would be helping , we were keeping the plan as secret as possible . ” I still think we’re missing

something . Something fucking big . ” Alejandro growled , turning his back to the table as h e lit a

cigarette .

” Like what ? ” Liam asked . ” 1 ” If I fucking knew , I would tell you . ” Alejandro replied coldly , taking a

long drag of his cigarette . ” We need to organise the front line … ” Dad said quietly . ” I need you at the

front , Raf … ” Alejandro said , now glancing at his brother .

” Endora said you couldn’t be influenced … I t must be something to do with having a hybrid for a

mother … You may be the only one able to get to her … I also need you to get her necklace . ” ” I can

face her too . ” I piped in . All eyes snapped to me . ” I’m not risking you at the front .

” Alejandro said , quietly . ” So , you will risk Rafael ? ” I asked . ” It makes sense , Kiara . ” Rafael said

gently . No , it didn’t . ” Look , Alejandro … You saw what happened in that cavern … You didn’t have a

chance …. neither did Marcel .

Maybe this was why we were paired , why , a blessed wolf , was born . There must be something we

need to do . Maybe Endora is that evil w e need to defeat . ” I said quietly . ” I of all people don’t want to

say this , but the Queen is correct . You need her in the frontlines .

” Allen said quietly . I knew what everyone was thinking about : My pregnancy . I knew if Allen knew ,

he may not have agreed either , but I did need to do this . ” I can’t risk her . ” Alejandro said quietly ,

resting his hand on the window frame , his back to us all . ” I’m willing to forsake everything for her ….

” His voice was thick with emotions , and my heart ached hearing him sound so … scared …. It was

fear in his voice . I walked over to him , wrapping my arms around him from behind . ” You won’t be ,

you’ll be right there with me .

” I said quietly . I could hear his heart thudding , his restlessness . ” There’s a chance you may have got

something from Kiara too …. Mates make each other stronger . Maybe now that you’re mated to Kiara ,

there’s something you’ve improved in , something that would help against Endora .

” Mom said . Dad sighed . ” We have to admit , the witch i s strong as hell … We need to try to make

sure the battle ends fast … Rafael , Alejandro , Me , Scarlett … and Kiara will fight in the front lines …

is that fine , Alejandro ?

” I could feel his pain , but he still accepted that Mom and I were not ordinary she – wolves . I knew he

didn’t want Mom there or me , but living with someone like Mom , an Alpha , he knew he had to step

down . I think it was this , that made him realise I had to do this .

” You’re asking me to risk her life ? ” Alejandro replied , now turning as he looked at Dad coldly ,

wrapping his arms around me possessively . ” I’m her father . How the hell do you think I feel ? I’m

being realistic here . You know , we need her … To minimise the loss of our people .

” ” Do forgive me , but Elijah is right , if you’re defeated in the front line , do you really think she won’t

get hurt ? Remember , Endora wants her . ” Beta Aaron asked . ” I don’t think she’s going to just walk in

and attack . It will be a surprise … I’m assuming she’s already seen wolves on the move .

” Liam said quietly . ” I want to be at the front too . ” Marcel said . ” I have a score to settle . ” ” Before

that , you need to initiate your rogues into your pack . I know you are all fucking happy to be lone

wolves , but you need the mind link . You need to become a proper fucking Alpha first . ” Alejandro said

coldly .

” I don’t want to force anyone . ” Marcel growled . ” Well then give them a fucking option , I’m sure

they’ll agree . They’re already at your fucking beck and call . ” ” Can everyone just calm down ?

Seriously , there seems to be so much anger and restlessness in this room in itself . ” Liam said ,

sighing . Damon nodded .

” Liam’s right , I know things aren’t perfect , but we need to work as a team . Alejandro , I know you like

to work alone , especially in combat . You are used to it ….. but we will need a team this time .

Marcel , Alejandro isn’t wrong , you need to unite the rogues , and Endora was probably the one who

probably instilled in you that becoming a pack was not ideal . If you become a pack you’ve got some

independence . Something she probably didn’t want .

” I added . ” Kia’s right . ” Damon frowned , ” I think w e need to split the powerhouses into two , though

… ” ” Just in case … ” Liam nodded in agreement . The door opened and Aunty Indigo stepped inside .

” I’m in too . ” She said quietly , her eyes held bags under them .

She had lost a lot of weight too , and she looked pale . ” Ind- ” ” Don’t ! ” She shrieked before Dad could

even finish , ” I need to do something or I’ll go crazy ! “

” Ok … ” Mom said , softly going over to her . She moved away not looking at Mom . ” You’re pregnant .

Are you going to risk the pup ? ” Alejandro asked . I knew I was pregnant as well , but unlike me , Aunty

didn’t have any special abilities .

” As if you care , you killed its father already . One more dead , I’m sure you wouldn’t even bat an

eyelid ! ” She spat venomously . That wasn’t fair … It hurt to hear her say that about him when he had

done this for her . He had done what Mom and Dad wanted to do too … he became the bad guy alone

…

But I also knew she was hurting . The room went silent , and a heavy tension fell . Thick darkness

swirled through the room . Alejandro’s eyes flashed , his aura suffocating everyone but me . ”

Remember who the fuck you’re talking t o . He deserved it . ” He said coldly .

” That was my decision to make ! ” She shouted , her eyes flashing , her teeth and claws elongating .

Too bad he was part of my pack . ” Alejandro shot back coldly . I tried to prevent him , but he refused to

be stopped . Aunty Indy glared at him until she was forced to submit .

” My only regret , I didn’t send him off to a more painful death . ” She gasped , and I knew those words

must have stung . After all , he had been her mate ‘ Alejandro , baby please … ‘ I whispered ,

pleadingly . But he refused to listen .

” Karma is a horrible thing , Alpha … I wonder how you’d feel if Kiara suffered like me ! ” ” Indy ! ” Mom

gasped . I kept my face passive . She was hurting . She didn’t mean that … She was only trying to hurt

Alejandro … ” Imagine if she was pregnant ! And you died ! Then I’m sure none of you would be there

telling her to move on and just act ok !

” She shouted . ” Indigo stop . ” Dad said , he looked pale , but he had his emotions in check . If only

she knew how I knew those words were a possibility . How I knew , even if I dare not speak it … I was

scared to lose him … I knew he’d risk his all … for our kind .

It terrified me day and night , and neither I nor Alejandro dared speak of it . Although , I knew it must

have crossed his mind too … ” I may be a fucking monster , but I am not a shithead like that fucker

Fred … You’ve had enough time playing the fucking victim .

He fucking broke you , and you’ve become a pathetic excuse of who you once were . Fix your fucking

self up . ” I hate you ! You’re a monster ! ” Aunty cried , her entire body shaking as she fought against

his Alpha aura . Before I could even comprehend what was happening , Alejandro slashed her across

her mate mark .

The smell of blood and the splash of blood shocking me to the core . ” I , Alpha Alejandro Rossi , exile

you from the Night Walkers Pack . Effective immediately . ” His cold , emotionless voice rang in the

room . My heart was pounding as I realised he had just cut the link with her . I felt the gut – wrenching

pull in my chest before the emptiness that followed .

She stepped back , the three claw marks dripping blood down her shoulder as the rest in the room

remained silent . Everyone was shell shocked and all I could hear were their thudding hearts … Exiles

were rare … Usually , people joined one pack to another breaking the old tie … but this method was

brutal .

Those marks would always remain upon her and to make it worse , they had destroyed her mate mark

… One of the only things she had left to remember her mate by . Mom looked pale as she stood there ,

frozen .

No one moved until Alejandro pushed past both women and stormed out of the room , leaving a

deafening silence in his wake …
