Waited For The Luna
Chapter 31

The following day went on as usual. Luka packed me some lunch and sent me to work, and once the day ended he picked me up. I saw him sleeping in the driver’s seat when I approached. He opened his eyes upon hearing movement inside the car.

“You want me to drive?” I asked.

“No, no! I can do it.” He then leaned in to turn on the engine.

As I was tired from work, Luka reclined my chair and told me to sleep.

After 3 hours we got to Dad’s house. Noah gave me a big hug when I entered. The food was already on the table so we began to munch. We ate in silence. I’ve noticed Luka, Noah, and dad glancing at each other from time to time. Abigail was quiet the whole time. She looked worried like something is bothering her.

After dinner, Abigail and I walked out to the backyard while the boys sat down for a drink.

“Are you excited about the baby?” I asked.

“I am but…” she said looking at Noah.

“But what?” I asked her.

“It’s only been 3 days since we got married. And I can’t believe he’s leaving soon.” Abigail said with pain-filled eyes. “What do you mean?” I asked.

“Dad wouldn’t make you drive 3 hours for just dinner. The guards and Luka will be on a manhunt starting tomorrow. And as a member of the pack guards, Noah has to come. He applied for a three-week leave from work, saying it was our honeymoon. ” She said with a frown. So this dinner was like a send-off dinner for both of them. “The situation is far more dangerous than we think Bellamy. We’re not sure if they can ever come back. I’m not sure if he can ever see his baby. ” She said as she caressed her tiny tummy.

“Do you have any idea what the attackers want? “, she hooked her head lightly. “Noah has been keeping me in the dark. What I did hear was that it has something to do with you and your birth parents. But I’m not so sure if that is true. After the wedding, Thomas went back and the house was broken in. The following day there was an attack and some men got killed in the fight. Luka and the rest were able to interrogate one.”

“What did the rogue said?” I asked.

“I don’t know. But that night Noah asked me to leave the pack and stay at my father’s for a while. I’ll be leaving tomorrow. I’m scared, Bellamy.”

“Don’t worry Abigail, they’ll come home. You don’t have to wait that long.” I said as I patted her back.

“You two look serious.” Noah barged in. It was getting late so Noah and Abigail had to go home.

Seeing the time, I urged Luka to stay in the pack while I drive home, but since it was our last night together before he leaves, he insisted on coming with me.

Once home, we decided to stay up for a little while and pour ourselves some wine while cuddling in the living room. I took the opportunity to ask him about what was going on.

“Luka. What’s been going on in the pack? ” I asked.

“You don’t have to worry about that.” He whispered.

“The pack may be vulnerable without you, why do you have to leave. Wouldn’t it be better if you stayed?” I asked.

“Bellamy, in my absence Eric will play as alpha, the pack won’t be vulnerable since he is a good leader. If I don’t go…” He paused. The frown on his eyebrows got deeper.

“If you don’t go what?” I asked but I couldn’t get a single word out of him. “What? What is it that concerns me, Luka?”

“Who told you that?” He stood up and asked.

“It doesn’t matter who told me. What does it have to do with my birth parents?” I asked looking at him confused. “Just f*****g speak Luka! There’s no point in keeping me in the dark!”

“Your birth parents seemed to be alive. They’ve been hunting you for 2 years now. Word got out that you went back to the pack, so a few of their men trespassed in your dad’s property. They’re different Bellamy, they’re faster and wilder than regular wolves. We’ll be out tomorrow to search for them and ask for help from neighboring packs. ”

“So some died because of me?” Was my return causing trouble to the pack. Causing other people’s death.

“No, this group of rogues has been kidnapping she-wolves for almost a century now. It seems like they’re after you because of your parents now. But I will do my best Bellamy. I will stop this. I won’t let them take you, even if I die.”

“So the past 3 days, was that you saying goodbye?”

“I’ll come back, Bellamy. I promise. But promise me you’ll stay safe. I’ll have a few guards sent here tomorrow to watch you.”

“What did the rogue said?” I asked but he was silent. “What did the rogue said?” I repeated with more tension in my tone.

“He said that they’ll be coming to replace you soon and take you. But I won’t let them take you away. I’ll kill them before they can even lay a finger on you. Okay, just calm down and let me fix all of this. “

I felt guilty thinking that everyone might be risking their lives. I might be the only one who can stop this. “No Luka, you wouldn’t do it. I don’t want anything to do with werewolves. I’ve made that clear years ago. “

“Bellamy, don’t say that.”

“You can’t protect me and the pack at the same time, Luka. Do what you have to do but don’t bring any wolf to my location. They’re needed in your pack.”

“What’s wrong with you?” He said staring at me his face darkened.
