Healing His Broken Luna.... Chapter 58

Chapter 14 - Beast

We dismounted the motorcycle and Niko turned to me, "It's okay, you're safe now."

"Where are we?"

"We're at my pack house." He answered. "I think you'll like it here."

"Does your Alpha know I'm with you?" I asked.

"Oh yeah." He smiled wide. "Listen Raven, he could be a bit grumpy at first, but I know he will warm up to you." Niko grinned.

"I bet! I'm sure grumpy Alpha will appreciate a sassy, opinionated, female Alpha with a knack for getting into trouble." I groaned and rolled my eyes.

"He will love you." Niko laughed and led the way.

We walked up the stairs and entered the double doors of this stunning house. The dark wooden floors were a beautiful contrast to the light colored walls and decor. There was a double grand staircase with the same dark colored wood used for the railings. The chandelier was a gorgeous crystal and tied everything together.

"The Alpha is in his office waiting for us." Niko told me.

I nodded my head and walked with him down a long hallway to the big dark wooden door at the end of the hall. I looked down at my torn neckline and pulled up the costume to try and hide my bra. I'm not sure why, but I felt nervous meeting this Alpha. Niko pushed the door open and we entered. The office was so grand, it reminded me of my fathers at the castle.

"Have a seat." Niko motioned to a leather armchair sitting in front of a really large, magnificently carved, wooden desk.

The occupant of the desk sat in a large leather chair and was turned around facing away from me. I could only see the back of his dark head, strong shoulders and massive arms. He was wearing a black long sleeve dress shirt with his sleeves rolled up.

I could feel a very strong and heated Alpha aura pulsing through the room. Rae was disappointed that she couldn't pick up his scent. Any minute now he would turn around to speak to me and the anticipation was growing.

There were two other wolves in the room with us that I did not know. One had sandy blonde hair with brown eyes and smiled at me. The other had dark brown short curly hair, brown eyes, a scar on his chin and had a serious face. They both looked about the same age, mid-twenties maybe and they were cut with strong muscular builds. I tried to scent them, but only one seemed to have a scent.

"Why am I only scenting one wolf in a room with four wolves?" I asked out loud before I could stop myself.

It was quite for a moment and they all stood with their eyes glazed, they were obviously mind linking. No one answered me.

"Where am I? What's the name of this pack?" I asked.

I looked at Niko who seemed to have a frustrated expression on his face. They were still mind linking and I wondered what was wrong. Maybe Niko was filling them in on our escape? Or maybe the Alpha was upset he had brought me here?

"I could just wait outside, give you more privacy, you know, so you don't have to mind link around me." I suggested and stood up to leave, I could feel Rae getting frustrated too.

"SIT DOWN!" I heard a growl coming from behind the chair.

"Not until you tell me what's going on." I snapped back. I felt myself getting annoyed because he hadn't even turned his chair around to look at me. As if I was insignificant, like a child in the room. How rude and disrespectful.

"I'm the only reason you're still alive and the only thing standing between you and a very angry Greek mafia. I'm not even sure if I want you alive." His deep voice was harsh.

Hearing those words was like a dagger to my heart and I wasn't sure why. Was this Alpha going to kill me? Rae was anxious and I considered if I could outrun them and leave. I wasn't feeling welcomed or wanted and wondered why Niko would even bring me here.

"Grumpy my ass! He's a jerk." Rae said to me.

I looked up at Niko and he gave me an apologetic look. "Can I at least use the restroom?" I asked.

"Sure, it's right this way." He said and led the way. We exited the office and Niko pointed to the door on the right.

"You weren't kidding when you said he was grumpy." I whispered to Niko.

"Hurry he doesn't like to be kept waiting." Niko whispered back.

"I don't think I caught his name." I said.

"It's Dimitri." He said in a hurry pointing to the restroom door.

I stepped inside and locked the door. Oh Goddess! He said Dimitri, as in the beast of Greece. I was in the lair of the beast and he wanted me dead too. What the hell is going on here?

"Rae, we've got to get out of here." My heart was racing.

I removed my pouch purse and stripped off my nymph costume. Then I stuffed the only clothing that could fit into my small purse, which was my underwear and bra. I lifted the small window open and climbed over the toilet seat, out the window.

I shifted as soon as my feet hit the ground and took off running. We had traveled north on the motorcycle which means Athens was south of here. Athens isn't safe at the moment either. I decided to keep moving north until I reached a town and then I would call my dad. I was running at top speed with my purse hanging in my mouth. I wondered if I kept running north, if I would run into another pack's territory.

"Let's just focus on getting out of this territory first." Rae said to me.

An angry howl rang out from a distance as they discovered I was gone. I really wish I had found some of those scent masking herbs. These wolves didn't play fair and I wasn't exactly sure what I had done to piss them off. There was no place to hide in their territory that could mask my scent. I tried to listen for moving water, I could usually hear it from a mile away but heard nothing. Thank the Moon Goddess that tonight was a new moon, which would help hide my black wolf better in the dark forest.

I could hear heavy paws running behind me and pushed Rae to keep running faster. Moments later I was knocked down and an angry roar came from above me. I flipped over and attempted to take off running again but this time I was knocked into a tree. The sound of other running paws approaching us could be heard.

I looked up to find a giant black Alpha. He was twice the size of a normal werewolf; I've never seen anything like it. My father is the largest Alpha I've ever set my eyes on, but he was even bigger than my father. He was a beast of a wolf.

I stood back and bared my teeth at him, my hackles were raised. I wasn't going to let his size intimidate me, I may be smaller, but I could roast this beast if I wanted.

"We could even drown him." Rae said to me.

"Except we don't have any water." I told her.

The beast shifted back to human form and I continued to growl at him. "I will break you pup." He said with amusement in his voice.

Sweet Moon Goddess he was naked! There was a shadow from the tree he was standing under that was hiding his face, but something felt familiar about him. His muscled body was perfectly sculpted, and I couldn't seem to look away.

"Mmmm, will you look at that!" Rae purred at me.

"Now's not the time Rae, he still wants us dead." I reminded her.

"He might actually be able to kill someone with that thing." She jested.

"Stop looking at him." I told myself and Rae, but couldn't take my eyes off him.

"Like what you see?" He laughed at me.

Just kill me now. He caught me staring at his manhood. How embarrassing. His laugh sent a fluttering sensation through me.

I could feel other wolves nearby in the shadows, there was no way I could run for it now. I moved next to a bush and shifted back, I was naked and could feel his eyes on me. My purse was on the ground and I grabbed it. Then I stood up in all my naked glory and he let out a growl. The other wolves all dropped their heads to the ground. I reached inside my purse and pulled out the lighter.

"You shouldn't play with fire little pup, you'll burn yourself." He mocked.

"Come closer and you'll be the one that gets burned." I lit the flame.

"I will kill you before you can even flinch." He threatened.

I willed the fire to expand and aimed a big ball of fire near his feet as a warning. Before it even landed, a wall of dirt blocked it and smothered the flame.

He must have fast reflexes because I didn't even see his foot kick up the dirt. I willed another big ball of flames into my hand and stood proud. "You will let me leave and you will not chase after me."

"You're elemental!" He snarled at me.

"And I will not hesitate to use this." I expanded the flame.

The beast stomped his foot and the ground beneath me shook. A dirt clump smothered the flame in my hand and a rock shot towards me. I didn't see anyone actually throw it, but it knocked the lighter out of my hand. I bent down to grab it, and a big dust cloud hit me in the face.

"What the hell?" Rae snarled in my head.

"He's elemental too!" I told her.

I felt a hand reach down and pull me up by the arm. He grabbed me so hard, my arm was actually tingling. I just wanted to see his face, but I couldn't see anything because of the dust in my eyes. I stood quietly for a moment, with my eyes closed, wondering if he would just snap my neck or rip my throat out.

He was standing so close to me; I could feel the heat from his body. Oh Goddess, his naked body. He was still naked. He leaned down and I thought he was going to whisper something in my ear, instead he took a deep breath. He was scenting me, and heat pulse through me.

He pulled away and growled, "GET HER A SHIRT AND TAKE HER TO A CELL!"
