I was **d at Alpha Leo, but I still wished he did not leave.

I tossed and turned on my bed. It has been hours already, but I was unable to sleep. I sat up straight on my bed, thinking about everything Alpha Leo did for me and Ivy's words.

What if she was lying? She knew about how I met Alpha Leo. She most probably was not lying.

Not like it mattered if I liked Alpha Leo or not. I was not planning on being with him anyways. I just had to wait till six months was over then I would leave. It could be less than six months. If Ivy was right about Alpha Leo's true intentions, he will breach our contract soon and I'll leave.

I laid back on the bed, but I still couldn't sleep, so I left the room and decided to take a walk in the woods.

I heard a loud scream a few minutes after walking into the woods.

After much contemplation, I gathered enough courage to follow the sound. I was with a few silver bullets and even if my wolf was asleep, I was still a warrior-in-training.

Alpha Leo? The voice sounded like Ivy's. I had met her just today but I paid so much to her that I could recognize her voice in a heartbeat.

I hastened my footsteps until they were finally in sight.

Alpha Leo was strangling Ivy and I panicked.

"Alpha Leo," I called out, terror written all over my face.

He turned to me. His eyes were black, but they turned clear blue as soon as he saw me.

Alpha Leo took his hands off her neck immediately and Ivy moved away, coughing.

ushed to me. He reached out for my hands, but he paused mid-way like he just remembered something. "Whatever Ivy told you, don't believe her. She lied to you." "You did?" I asked Ivy, regretting how I treated Alpha Leo.

She looked away. "I've been with Alpha Leo way before you knew how to read and write. I deserve to be with him, not you."

I opened my mouth, but no words came out so I shut it back. I was short of words. "What!"

"Why should you be Luna?" Ivy lashed out. "When Ama died, I was there for him. Where were you?"

So, you walked into my room disrespectfully and lied to me?"

"She did what?" Alpha Leo snarled.

Ivy turned to run, but Alpha Leo bolted and stood in front of her

"Leave her," I said, frowning.

85% 85%

What Ivy did was wrong, but despite how young Leo was, it was still wrong of him to mess around. If he had waited till he found his fated mate, this would never have happened. "She tried to sow discord between the both of us," he growled.

Fuming, he came back to me and without touching me, he checked my body to see if I was injured. "You should not have walked into the woods this late."

"If I didn't, I would not have known the truth," I said in a small voice. Then I added. "I am sorry for how I acted today."

He gave me no response. He just kept on looking at me. Then, he asked. "Can I touch

aback at his question. "I don't understand your question."

"You warned me against touching you."

My face reddened. "You can, but not appropriately."

"That means I can carry you on my back."

"Ca-carry me? I can walk by myself. I don't need you to carry me."

you now?"

"I'm not saying you can't. I just want to carry you. You walked all the way to this place. I don't want you to get too stressed up." "Well..." My voice trailed off. "I-"

Before I could complete talking, Alpha Leo bent down with his back facing me. "Hop on."

throat turned dry. "You can't do that," I rasped.

Alpha

a Leo laughed. "Try me and see. I'm definitely not leaving here without carrying you."

Seeing how stubborn he was, I climbed his back and immediately my feet were off the ground.

While he walked towards the house, I said nothing to him and he said nothing to me too. I hoped he stayed that way and at the same time I wanted to hear his voice. Imagine liking something and hating it at the same time.

"I should be carrying you all the time. It feels good to do so," he said, finally breaking the silence between us.

I smiled, a little relieved that he was not like Ivy described him. I was a little scared too. What happened today made me like him the most. Too bad I no longer want a wolf in

my

life.

'And why is that?' I heard a voice in my head ask, but I brushed it off.

My phone beeped.

It was a message from an unknown number.

How is a ride on his back going?"

Someone was watching us and my eyes darted around the thick forest.

"Is something wrong?" Alpha Leo asked and another message entered.

I have your nudes. If you tell the Alpha about these messages. Trust me, they will get uploaded.

I frowned.

This was ridiculous. I rolled my eyes and switched off my phone. "I think we are being fo-"

My phone beeped again.

It was

message from the same unknown. P**ed off and ready to give whoever was spamming me a piece of my mind, I opened the message.

I froze.

וי

I froze.

Staring back at me were pictures of me and I was stark naked.

'I can imagine the look on the faces of the wolves that call you Luna when they see these.'

"You think we are being what? What is wrong?".

"Nothing serious. I'm just a little scared."

"Oh, Okay." I could hear the doubt in his voice, but he said nothing more.

I looked around.

The only person I could think of that would have these pictures was...

Another beep.

"Love, from your ex-mate."

Of course, it was Sebastian.
