Her Possessive Alpha

Chapter 73: SEVENTY-THREE

Love

Nani went to the table and dropped the tray, before coming back to where Lucas was, she took his

hands in hers and shook him a bit.

“Lucas!!! Lucas!!! Please listen to me… Can you hear me? Are you okay???”

Lucas opened his eyes and took his hands from Nani’s. “Relax Nani, alcohol does nothing to

wolves, else I would’ve taken so much more.”

“Thank the goddess!” Nani said, letting out a sigh of relief, thank the goddess she came on time

before Lucas tried anything worse to himself to try to take away the ‘hurt.’

Lucas couldn’t have felt any worse in his life, before when he had feelings similar to this, Vivian

and Ria where always there for him, before Ava came along and the feeling of being with her

superseded the way he’s ever been with any other woman, and now, he has no one, no one here to

comfort him. He felt someone hold his hand again, turning his head in the direction of the contact and

seeing Nani’s face. Of course, his sweet Nani, he’d even forgotten for a second that she came here.

“She left me Nani; she’s gone forever.”

“I know, but I came here to tell you to stop feeling pity for yourself and man up, you’re not to blame

for what happened, and neither is she.”

“I should have never kidnapped her.”

“She is your mate; she was meant to come to you.”

“And she did, she submitted, she even chose to stay with me even after I told her she could go.”

“You let her go before?”

“Yes, I wanted her to have a choice, and not be forced to bend at my will, and she chose to remain

here even though her duties remained unfulfilled back at home.”

“A Luna choosing her personal desire over her duties? It’s never been heard of. She could’ve been

punished severely if she were found out.”

“Yes, but she never considered that.”

“There’s no way that Ava didn’t know about the punishment Lucas, she knew that if her alpha or

anyone found out what she’d done, giving another man her claim when it should’ve been given to her

alpha, she would’ve been guilty of offending her pack’s customs but yet she didn’t care, she chose to

stay with you! She loves YOU Lucas!”

“No, she doesn’t. She loves her betrothed, she said it herself to my face.”

“Nonsense! Do you really believe that? Do you really believe that she’d stay with you for this long if

she didn’t nurse any feelings in her heart for you? Do you really think she would choose your presence

over his if she were truly in love with him as she said? The pull of the mate bond on her was long gone,

she could’ve left after that, but yet she chose to stay, because there was something more sustaining

keeping her; LOVE!”

“She’s gone now, there’s no chance of us being together.”

“That’s a lie, there’s every chance, you can still go after her now. The news of losing her betrothed

has distorted her, she’s not thinking clearly. If she goes back to her pack to tell them and confess where

she’s been she’ll be punished for sure and only the goddess knows what form of punishment this new

alpha might give her, he might even kill her.”

Lucas didn’t answer.

“Lucas???”

“Please leave me alone Nani.”

“Fine. I’ll leave you alone to think about it, but you don’t have much time now, Ava might be happy

to die to ease her soul and her guilt for the destruction she’s caused, but you, you’ll never have another

chance at fulfillment if you lose her Lucas De’ Clan.”

**********

It was afternoon time when Layla reached the house where Ava, Ray and Ethan used to live. She

came here first because she wanted to know exactly what happened, and who better to tell her than ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Ethan himself?

She walked into the house, changing back to her human form and entering her bedroom to wear

some clothes before looking to see who was around, she realized the house was empty, of course

someone would have heard her come in but no one was at home, she didn’t want to make an

appearance at the packhouse, not yet, at least not until she found out what happened to Ray and seen

him for the last time, she was very sure she’d be denied that chance before her punishment, if she

survived it.

She was in the kitchen when she heard the front door open, thank the goddess someone had

come, she ran through the corridor to check who it was, and it was none other than her friend, Nicole.

Nicole jumped at the sight of her, unable to believe her eyes, all the blood drained from her face

like she’d seen a ghost.

“Ava!!!”
