Against the Alpha’s Claim – Chapter 238

Additional days

Gazed directly at the man, utterly astonished, “What did you say?””

“It is intriguing, even to me,” he added. “I have always perceived

Bella’s son is playing with my son. “Even in her absence, I always perceived it,” he remarked with a shrug. “It was destined, I suppose, although I never anticipated him as your choice all along.” He shook his head. “She always anticipated returning to the group eventually, where her son and my son would interact.”

Luke was now intently gazing at him, “and you never once uttered a word.” I failed to mention that.

No, I did not perceive a necessity to do so. I observed her presence and evident happiness.

Ultimately, it was the sole consideration; it would occur at the appropriate time, I suppose.

“Is he my progeny?””

“Upon reflection, he will resemble her family more, inheriting her dark hair and green eyes, somewhat resembling Jodi, in fact.” That is likely the reason I did not select him for you. The boys will be roughly the same age as well.

Upon realisation, his parents were already expecting. “Is she currently pregnant?”He could not refrain from enquiring. She had been in oestrus; it was plausible, as even Maddis at this moment felt exhilarated by the possibility.

“I am uncertain; go engage with her, utilise your Alpha instincts. It has been more than a week since her heat cycle; either you or Maddis should detect something, even if she and Tyler do not.”

He smiled at the prospect, now increasingly eager to go there and discover the truth. He had not concentrated on conceiving a child; he was simply content in her company, and they produced three offspring. He was not attempting to conceive a child with her. Maddis, however, presented a different situation.

“Benzy, proceed to pack. Lanky, you will assume responsibility. Father, refrain from entering my office.”

“It is too late to ruin my enjoyment now, son.” His father chuckled and departed, satisfied with himself and the transactions he had conducted while in control. Luke was not inclined to enquire about it. If it were truly significant, his father would inform him. It is probable that an expensive item was recently purchased. The issue would be reflected on the man’s pack card, or the pack’s accountant would contact him regarding the amount in question.

Bella gazed directly at Macky when his phone rang, and he remarked, “Here we go, Bella,” displaying the caller ID, which indicated it was Luke. He responded, “Yes Luke,” and activated the speakerphone for her to hear everything.

“Where are you, Macky?”Luke enquired, exhibiting a calm demeanour, which she found unexpected.

“On your aircraft, sir,” Macky replied.

“What is the reason?””

“That is somewhat more challenging to address.”

“Please elucidate why my private jet is three-quarters of the way across the country without my consent.”

I was commanded by the Luna to utilise it. Commanded by the Luna to retrieve my Mate.

“My Luna is not currently seated across from you, is she?””

Bella suppressed the laughter rising within her; he appeared to be attempting to be amicable with the situation. “She would be,” Macky remarked, smiling to himself as he gazed directly at her. “You are on speakerphone, boss.”

“Darling, why are you three-quarters of the way across the country from me?””

I assume Macky was prohibited from leaving the group due to your concern that I would require his assistance. “Therefore, I must accompany him.” She smiled.

“That is not precisely what I intended; I perceive that you regard it as more than merely amusing.”

I discovered a minor loophole in your request for him to be there wherever I was. “It is my responsibility to capitalise on those loopholes for my clients.” She laughed, unable to restrain herself, and since he was not angry, she allowed him to perceive the humour she found in the situation.

“Oh, since when has Macky been your client?””

“It can now be stated that all members of the pack are regarded as my clients.” I am the Luna, and they will seek my counsel.

“Could you not have waited merely two additional days?”“He inquired.”

“No,” she replied, shaking her head. “Macky possesses the largest puppy dog eyes I have ever encountered.” “How could I refuse him?” She observed Macky pouting at her, resting his chin on his palm and fluttering his eyelashes. In response, she leaned over and playfully struck him, erupting in laughter.

“It appears that both of you are enjoying yourselves.” Relishing my private jet.

“Our private jet,” she corrected him. “You informed me that all your possessions are now mine, as I am the Luna.”

I heard him sigh and Benzy laugh uproariously in the background. “I’m following you in Mum and Dad’s jet, just so you are aware.”

“Is it sufficiently large to accommodate all of us and Nora’s family?””

“As you know, you have appropriated it for yourself.”

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.
