The Alpha and His Contract Luna novel Chapter 43

“Come with us” the man who seemed like he was the leader says.

I start backing away. I was confused and on edge. What the hell was this about? I try to think back at what might have warranted the council to come after me but nothing pops up.

It can’t be about Miranda and Michele. It was usual for wolves to lose their tempers and fight each other. So what the hell was going on?

“Blue” I call her. “What’s happening? Why are they here?”

I desperately hoped that she had answers. That she could calm me down and tell me that there was a misunderstanding. That everything was going to be okay.

“I don’t know,” she says. Her fear palpable.

Was it because I attacked Miranda while she was pregnant? Yeah that was probably it. I have never done anything wrong in my life. I have always followed the rules and regulations.

“Don’t make this hard” another man says.

I turn to look at Sebastian but his face is hard and his jaw set. I wasn’t going to get any help from him. That more than anything disappointed me.

“I am not going anywhere till you tell me what you’re arresting me for” I declare.

Sebastian snorts. “As if you don’t already know”

I look at him again. It fucking hurts to see the look of disgust on his face. To see that he isn’t helping me out. I was his mate for heaven’s sake.

He turns to the enforcers. “Take her out of my fucking house”

They don’t waste time in obeying him. They grab me and they don’t do it gently at all.

“Get your fucking hands off me” I scream, thrashing.

I was not going to let them take me. Especially not in front of my daughter.

“Hey! leave her alone” Jax enters the living room and rushes to where I was being held.

He hits the enforcers yelling at them to let me go. They try pushing him away but Jax is persistent. At least I have a supporter. Albeit a small one.

I twist my head and look at Krystal. She is still on the couch. She is staring at the carpet, crying silently.

I renew my struggle. The need to go and comfort her strong.

“Jax! Get away from that woman” Sebastian booms. Making both Jax and I stiffen.

The guy kissed me just last week. So what happened? How was it that I was Red last time we talked and now I am ‘that woman?’

“But dad…” he begins but his father cuts him off.

“Go to your room right now! And take Krystal with you” he orders.

Jax reluctantly listens and stops his attack. By now we had attracted a commotion.

Monica, James and some of the warriors were at the threshold of the kitchen door.

Hunter was behind Sebastian. Just like his alpha and the enforcers, he was also looking at me in hate.

A small voice interrupts my musings.

“I am sorry mama, I had to do it. I had to. They are going to help you” Krystal says, bawling her eyes out.

I was confused by what she meant by that. What did she have to do? And what will they help me with?

Before I could ask her Jax takes her hand and leads her upstairs. Monica follows them up.

“Could someone please explain to me what is happening? You just can’t come into my house and grab me”

“This isn’t your fucking house. Get that through your head” Sebastian says angrily.

“Now take her away” he growls at the enforcers.

I start struggling again. I didn’t want to leave. Not without an explanation. Things weren’t adding up, and no one was offering any kind of explanation.

“You better cooperate or we will treat you like the criminal you are. Woman or not” one of them snarls at me.

“I am not going anywhere with you” I snarl right back at him.
