“Yeah! Have you seen anything in our pack you want to change?”
“Oh… um… I honestly haven’t thought about it. There is still so much I haven’t seen. I know when I helped. Emmy, she wanted to do a few things.”
“She showed them to me and we have actually started on her ideas!”
“Oh wow! That’s amazing!*
“We are very open to new ideas. Growth after all is vital to making sure the pack is successful. If you have ideas that you think will help grow the pack, please let me know. As you start stepping into the luna roll, I will be here to really help you. However, from what I’ve seen, you are already mastering it. You have a natural ability to comfort those who need it. Plus, you have zero concern about standing up to Marc!”
“Oh, was Alpha Marc upset?”
“Great! So, you guys can eat whatever you want now. Anything that isn’t ate will just get tossed so please help yourself to any of it. I am going to go write this down and I’ll be back!”
Luna Erin smiled as she ski pped out the door. Goi ng over to the sushi, I took the plate and went over to the couch to sit down.
“I’m surprised you didn’t eat the chocolate.”
Alec smirked as he grabbed the duck.
“I rather not be n*ked when she gets back.”
I grumbled as I shoved a sushi into my mouth. Alec sat down and raised an eyebrow.
“So, did you enjoy last night?”
“I did actually.”
“Which parts did you like?”
Alec put a bite of duct in his mouth.
“The massage was the best part.”
I teased.
“Oh really?”
He raised an eyebrow at me.
“Yeah. Your fingers are talented.”
I put another roll in my mouth.
“I see.”
Alec said as his mother came back into the room.
“I got everything lined up! What are your plans for the rest of the day?”
She asked as she grabbed the cranberry pear salad and sat down.
“Going to the shop to see how the progress is.”
I said before I ate the last bite of sushi. Standing up. I went to put the plate back before getting the chocolate desert.
“Ah! I hope it is coming along good! Did you have many clients you needed to reschedule?”
“I did. I’m usually booked out a few weeks.”
“That’s wonderful. What made you want to go into tattooing?”
“I love to draw and come up with designs. It was a creative way to earn money and get out of the packhouse for awhile.”
“I can’t believe you managed to run and create such a successful business!”
Luna Erin praised me.
I felt Alex place his hand on my lower back as he sat forward. There was an instant calming to his touch but my anxiety was still flying high.
“Mom, we discussed this.”
“You discussed what?”
I pulled back from Alec and looked between them.
“You will continue tattooing and will not be giving that up.”
His voice was firm. They want me to stop tattooing? .we
“You misunderstand, Alec. No, we do not wish for her to stop tattooing.”
Looking directly at me,
“yes, had a discussion about the shop taking too much time away from your duties here. However, Marc and i have spoken and we are wanting to discuss something with you two.”
She paused as she shifted in her seat.
“Like what?”
Alec’s voice was restraint anger.
“With everything that is going on, Marc is not quite ready to step down as Alpha. I know we had discussed him stepping down when you found your mate or waiting till you are older. You have shown us that you are ready without a doubt but since your mate seems to have a target on her back, maybe it’s best we wait till things settle down. We also think that this would be a great time for you to take a vacation together. School ends in two weeks. Why not go to the beach after graduation? Take that trip to Italy. After you take over the Alpha and Luna roll, there won’t be time for you guys to do any traveling. As far as the tattoo shop, we did hope that you would be interested in expanding it, hiring more artist but you will not recieve any pushback from us as long as the luna duties are still getting done. You have shown us that you are capable of handling multiple things at once.”
“So, I am keeping Alec from getting the Alpha position?”
I was hurt. I knew me ntally what she was saying but emotionally, that really stung.
“It was never set in stone he would recieve the alpha title once he found his mate. Even if this wasn’t going on, Marc would still want me to train you for some months to a few years until he stepped down.”
“So, then why even tell him he would get the title if you weren’t prepared for that?”
I was getting angry.
“Kristen, you are the daughter of an alpha. I’m sure you can understand things change everyday? I believe it was your father’s intention to wait till Colt was 25 before he stepped down. After a few public displays by Luna An n, do you honestly think he won’t be pushing Colt harder so he is ready sooner?”
I was already sitting up straight but this stiffened my back even more. I didn’t appreciate her speaking about this. It might be true but that would mean dad could loss his mate if he breaks his mate bond. Now, he could simply step down but that would not get rid of An n.
“Kids, listen. I know this isn’t what you were wanting to hear. Kristen, I am beyond happy you hare Alec’s mate. You are going to be an amazing luna and I think you are the perfect match for Alec. Being alpha and luna is a huge commitment. We want you guys to be able to enjoy some fun before you are tied down to this role. Travel and spend time with each other. Get to know each others habits and desires. Let Marc and Brian take over handling Alpha Rip. We are not excluding you, you both will be involved in any and all information.”
Mrs. Smith Author ? Thank you all for reading!
I’m not sure if shocked was the right word to explain what I was feeling. I did understand what she was saying but I couldn’t help but feel hurt. They were keeping Alec from being alpha because Darin wanted me. My eyes dropped to her half drank tea. The dirty brown water reflected how I felt.
“What aren’t you saying, mom?”
Alec spoke firmly.
“Watch your tone.”
Luna Erin glared right back.
“At the end of the day, Darin wants Kristen. Marc and my concern is that he will challenge you for her. If you are alpha and luna, that might include that position. We don’t want him to be able to challenge for them together. If he wants to challenge the alpha, that is one thing but if she is the luna….”
That would include the pack too. It was like a slap in the face.
“Anyone could challenge for that at any time.”
Alec didn’t change the attitude in his voice.
“Why wasn’t dad here for this conversation?”
“Sometimes you dad can be…. too aggressive. This wasn’t meant to upset you but we did want to be transparent with you two. You deserve that much. I’m sorry we are in this position. I want nothing more than for you two to take over and be happy. We still have a pack we have to run and protect. This isn’t want I wanted for either of you but we are trying to make the best out of this situation. You wanted to travel, we will cover the cost. Please just think about it?”
Luna Erin stood up.
“I will see your choices get honored for your commitment ceremony. We will need to have a dress fitting soon. Let me know what you both have decided.”
She walked out of the library and quietly closed the door. Alec stood up and started pacing with his hands on his hips.
“Did you know?”
I asked quietly.
“No, I swear. They had asked if you were wanting to travel and if you still planned on tattooing. I told them I wasn’t sure about the traveling since we never spoke about it but I told them you would be tattooing still.”
Alec turned and looked at me.
“I’m so sorry.”
Alec came up to me and kneeled in front of me. Taking my hands in his, his eyes searched mine. Pulling my hands free of his, I slid around him and stood up. I knew that action hurt him as if filtered through the bond but I didn’t even know how I felt about it all. She wasn’t wrong but it was still like I got stabbed in the back. I was keeping Alec from being alpha. My brain was sca ttered as I kept trying to figure out what I was feeling and how I wanted to respond to this situation.
“Why don’t we head to the shop to see the progress?”
I said finally. Alec didn’t say anything but got up and opened the door for me. He was more angry than anything but ! couldn’t tell where it was directed. My best guess was at his parents. Probably a little from me rejection opened the car door for me and waited until I got in before closing it gently. However, he slammed his door shut and floored the gas as he took off. Between his emotions and my own, I wasn’t sure what to do. Taking their offer of a vacation seemed wrong. As much as I wanted to look over at Alec, I kept my eyes out my window. The trees were flying by, helping me push everything out from my mind. Resting my head against the head rest, I forced my emotions to shut down. I didn’t want to think or feel. Turning my attention to my shop and what that was going to look like in the future. Alec had to d to park down the street since there was so many cars parked on the street. As soon as he turned off the car, I opened my own door and got out. The wind was blowing, making me smell the sawdust. It was a smell that said they were making progress. Alec came up to me but didn’t try to touch me.
Taking a deep breath, I just nodded and slowly walked towards my shop. Right as we approached, Penny and Colt stepped out.
“I wondered when you two would get here.”
Colt held out his hand to shake Alec’s. Ignoring them, I peaked into the shop. It was looking amazing.
“Ice?”
Colt put his hand on my shoulder.
“What?”
Snapping back to him, his eyes narrowed.
