Against the Alpha’s Claim – Chapter 187

Attending college

Intended to expel any she-wolf that had the audacity to grasp Luke’s hand. Exhibited rudeness and entitlement, regarded the omegas with disdain, physically assaulted some of them, and deemed such behaviour acceptable. I contend, although none of them would disclose this to the Luna or Alpha, that her actions were erroneous. Based on my observations, nothing in this package met her standards.

Luke had not characterised her in that manner; all she was aware of was her laziness, neglecting Luna lessons and responsibilities, eschewing training, and frivolously squandering pack funds. Speculated on the nature of the girl’s upbringing.

Contemplated the Luna teachings. She had not participated in any personally, nor in any training; she would do so after her human existence concluded, since she needed to resolve that problem first. Thus, she did not become distracted and completely disregard it.

They traversed the group their route to the school. The stroll was pleasant; the snowplough had already cleaned the roads, and the sun was shining this morning, which was also enjoyable.

She retrieved her phone from her pocket and examined the caller ID upon its ringing. “Hi Nora, it’s a pleasure to hear from you,” she said, although she was aware that it was still the middle of the night there.

“Hello, Bella.” Nora’s voice conveyed fatigue and a hint of emotion.

“What is the issue?”She ceased walking.

“Mother’s residence ignited,” she wept. “We are merely.”

Bella almost connected with Macky immediately but refrained, fearing he would panic. “Take a breath, Nora,” she said, hearing her inhale several times. Bella saw that it involved not just Nora but also her mother Elena and her younger sister Maya. They possessed no other relatives in this location.

“It remains ablaze,” she said. “We have no escape.”

She sensed Macky reaching out to her through the Mind-Link, his voice tinged with panic: ‘Nora is on the phone with me, please wait.’ She severed the connection, unable to converse with both him and Nora simultaneously. Nora, proceed to my residence; you may all remain there. I will contact the doorman to provide an explanation and arrange for someone to collect you. Remain in your current position; I shall return your call shortly.

“Thank you.”

“I will call you back shortly,” Bella told her before terminating the connection. She could already perceive footsteps approaching her, realising that it would be Macky. She pivoted and gazed at him. “She is fine, merely disturbed and distressed; no one is injured, as she would have informed me.”

“We must retrieve her.”

“I understand, summon your associate outside.” I informed her that I would dispatch someone for her. Instruct one of them to escort her, together with her mother and sister, to my residence. I will contact my doorman; he is acquainted with her. Calm yourself, Macky; she will be perfectly alright. I assure you that we will ensure her safety.

She observed that anxiety and concern were evident on his face and reached out to touch his arm. “Inform them accordingly.” He acknowledged with a nod.

She contacted her doorman and instructed him to let Nora and her family access to her apartment, as she might not possess her key owing to the prevailing circumstances. Once Nora discovered the location of the extra key within the flat, she may utilise it.

She could hear Macky issuing commands frantically, as she recognised that Gamma, the third in command, was present, and no one would disregard him until Benzy or Luke intervened, which she doubted would occur.

She had never witnessed him being forceful and in control. Bella recognised, while observing him, that he had employed his Gamma Charm on her, believing it to be amusing during the few occasions he had the opportunity.

Although she had not previously recognised it, she now understood that it was beneficial.

Their Goddess deemed it appropriate to bestow the Gamma lineages with that Charm, intended to pacify their Lunas, and all she-wolves in general. She had depended on him to assist her in regaining her composure and believed she could not have accomplished it without his support.

She returned Nora’s call immediately after he ended the conversation, and she answered promptly. “Nora, this is Bella. I will not be delayed; I have a gentleman to attend to.”

Gazed at Macky.

“Gregory,” he informed her.

“Gregory is en route and will arrive in a few minutes.” Do you possess your key?”

“No, we possess nothing; I merely took my mother and Maya and departed.”

“You are aware of the location of the spare key; it is yours.” Greg will be present and will provide you with his contact number; he or one of his security personnel may escort you to your desired location, including your residence, once the situation stabilises.

“Understood.” She still appeared unsettled to Bella.

“What is the severity of the situation, Nora?”

Nora sighed, “I am uncertain.”

A man said her name, “Nora Martinez?””

Received the typical human reaction to someone so large and formidable, “Um… yes.”

I am Gregory, here to escort you to Bella’s flat.’ My condolences for your residence.

“Did you arrive promptly?””

“Affirmative, ma’am, he was already in the vicinity.” It is probable that he was the individual who reported the fire and contacted Macky.

“Bella?”

“That will be Gregory.” “You can rely on him, I assure you.”

“Understood.”

“Accompany him and repose.”

“Thank you, Bella.” She terminated the call.

“She is unharmed, Macky.” What transpired?She enquired of him, aware that Gregory was probably the one observing her.

“They are unaware, having stated that an hour ago everything was satisfactory, although I have been informed that it is an older residence.” It may encompass a wide range of possibilities.

“I am aware that their earnings are minimal.” Maya is attending college, and her mother had her later in life, suggesting she should be adopting a more relaxed lifestyle and considering retirement in a few years, although I am sceptical that this will occur.

“We could arrange that, Bella,” Macky groaned.

Bella, once the cherished lover of future Alpha Luke of the Red Moon Pack, finds her world shattered when she is banished from her pack. Her crime? Striking Luke’s newly discovered fated mate with claws unsheathed—a reflex her wolf, Tyler, cryptically defends with the words, “To protect the pup.” Stripped of her place in the pack and warned never to return, Bella complies, narrowly avoiding the rogue label since Luke has not yet ascended to full Alpha status. Heartbroken and resolute, she retreats to the human world, immersing herself in university life to complete her law degree. Bella carves out a new existence as a successful divorce attorney, far from the pack that cast her aside, the future Luna who despises her, and the secret she guards fiercely—her children, the legacy of a love she can never reclaim. Six years pass in self-imposed exile, but the past refuses to stay buried. When an official letter from the Red Moon Pack demands her return, Bella defiantly burns it, vowing never to step foot in Luke’s territory again. But Luke, now the reigning Alpha, is relentless. He will bring her back, no matter the cost. Bound by the constraints of human law and society, Luke cannot simply take her by force—her prominence in the human world complicates any attempt to make her disappear. Yet, he is determined to claim what he believes is his by right. As their paths cross again, Bella is thrust into a storm of conflicting emotions. Her wolf yearns for Luke, urging her to reclaim the bond they share, but Bella’s heart is torn. She despises the man who cast her out yet still feels the undeniable pull of their connection. To her, Luke’s motives are clear: he wants his heirs by his side, not her. She believes his wolf drives him to claim her, while the man himself sees her merely as the mother of his children, a convenient solution to his legacy. But is that the truth? Or does Luke harbor a deeper love for her that he has yet to admit—even to himself? In the battle between pride and fate, will Bella surrender to the mate bond or stand firm in her resolve to remain free? Only time will reveal whether their fractured past can heal, or if the scars will prove too deep to overcome.
