The Alpha’s Substitute Mate

Chapter 51- Kill the Luna



Isabella

Malcolm and Lance opened the door and came face to face with Arden and his warriors.

Arden glared at the two men. “My brothers, the two men I trusted the most, kidnapped my wife and mate.”

” We didn’t kidnap her, she severed the bond and ran away from you!” Lance yelled back.

” You watch how to speak to your Alpha little brother, or I will help you lose that tongue of yours.” he spat out, unable to keep his rage from his voice.

” You betrayed me brothers and for that, you have to pay with your life.” He raised his hands and made a signal to the warriors ” Arrest them for treason against the Blood Moon Pack.”

The pack warriors circled on Malcolm and Lance, although the looks on their faces showed that they were reluctant to do so. But they had to obey the order because failure to do so would mean them paying with their lives. While Malcolm and Shane were distracted, Arden skirted the vehicle and came around to the passenger door. I tried to escape from the driver’s side but belatedly realized I was still stuck in the seat belt. “Hello mate,” his deep accented voice filled my ears and I could note the hatred that laced his tone.

” It’s so nice to….” and then his burning gaze pierced into mine and he froze.

His eyes glided from my silver eyes to my neck shocked. But as quickly, that shocked gaze morphed into fury, his eyes blazed like a volcano.

” You cheating little whore,” he roared, with his gaze torched with anger. He reached over, yanked off the seat belt, and dragged me out of the car by my arm. His sharp nails dug deeper into my flesh, spilling my blood.

” I don’t even need to ask which of them is responsible for this betrayal because his foul stinking scent is all over you.” He cast a deadly glare over at Malcolm who was squared off against ten warriors.

” I am not a cheat!” I growled, twisting my arm free from his hold and glaring back at him. ” You are the one that couldn’t keep your fucking dick zipped up in your pants and we no longer share a bond, I ended whatever stupid bond we share when I rejected you. I’m a free woman.”

” Mate or not,” he roared, ” You’re still legally married to me, dear wife.”

” Legally for real? Not when I’m ready for divorce.”

“A divorce!” he growled. “What do you take me for? A plaything you discard when you’re done with! No dear wife, I call the shots here and not you. You go nowhere Isabella, you belong to me, and me alone.”

“I belong to no one,” I hit him in the chest with my finger, and it felt like I was hitting a rock. ” I go where I want. I decided on what to do. I love who I want. I live my life the way I want. You don’t own me, Arden Vinci.” I watched the golden flame deep within his eyes twitch and then, he released a small smile

” You don’t know what you’re saying, your Dad won’t be pleased to hear that, and what do you think would happen to your miserable little pack once the alliance is broken.”

” You fucking liar, my Dad had already given his blessing, and the treaty would be called off soon.”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

” Who do you think informed me of your destination? Ohh! Poor thing, meeting up with you guys was not a coincidence, your Dad would do anything to protect the alliance even if it means sacrificing you.” His lips curled into a sinister smile as his words broke my heart into a zillion pieces.

We were all so busy fighting and arguing that we were unaware of the danger that was creeping up on us through the shadows of the trees. One of the warriors was the first to spot them.

” Rogues!” He called out a warning, just seconds before chaos erupted from the forest, and a thousand rogue warriors surrounded. We stopped fighting each other and turned on the common enemy. Arden was also forced to turn away from me to defend himself from the attackers. I backed up against the car and watched the fight like a slow-motion movie. Everything was happening so fast.

Lance took a hit on the head and dropped to the ground. I screamed his name and started to move towards him, sliding around the car and moving towards the middle of the road. I saw Malcolm fighting and it was like watching a carefully harmonized dance. His skills with his fists and feet made his whole body a deadly weapon.

Arden fought too, like a typical warlord with a taste for blood and more brutal strength and brawn. His fists plowed into the face of rogues and I heard the crunch of bone.

From the trees, I heard a voice shout, ” Kill the Luna!” I froze. So did Arden and Malcolm. Malcolm jumped over one of the rogue warriors and tried to reach me but he was too far away. From the corner of my eyes, I saw the sun glint off the sniper’s rifle in the trees, and in the next instant, I heard the shot. Time seemed to freeze, I felt my spine stiffen and my heart mounts an instant race. A fearful beat drummed in my ear, as my entire body felt the fear settle in and I thought to myself, this is it. This is how it will end for me. But then in the next moment, Arden had thrown himself in front of me. His eyes were on my face, his hands on my shoulders, his giant back a human shield against the assassin. And I felt the bullet pierce into his flesh, into his body, the impact traveling through his flesh and into mine as if I had been hit. For a second, my body was completely paralyzed I couldn’t stop the wild drumming of my heart in my ears as my fearful eyes stared into his emerald-green orbs.
