Against the Alpha’s Claim – Chapter 193

We could be

“Asleep still.”

I heard the guy giggle and observed him shake his head, saying, “I have never known your beast to slumber in this manner.”

“No, I have not either,” Luke concurred. “Thoroughly appreciated copulating with Tyler.”

“It may be advisable to rouse him for this.”

I would want to avoid that; if he becomes irritated, the interaction between Alphas may not end well. Maddis is unlikely to be concerned with Philip’s presence on the council. Our lack of alliance will be his primary concern.

“If circumstances proceed favorably.”

“We could be,” Benzy remarked with a smile before departing to join Lanky, who had arrived and was conversing with Amelia.

The sun was shining today, at the very least. He stood gazing out the floor-to-ceiling windows in the coffee shop. A balcony was located just beyond, although it was probably still too chilly for the youngsters to have it open.

He observed them approaching, grinned at the sight of the youngsters clad in puffer jackets and mittens, with the girls adorned in fluffy fur-lined hoods, as they engaged in tossing snow at one another. Appreciated their willingness to engage in games while walking. It seems they were finally achieving comfort, as even Karis was engaging in play with his sisters.

He directed his gaze towards Bella, who was conversing with Macky and Margaret, at ease in their company. She had donned black pants and a long-sleeved dark red knit top that morning. She donned two-inch black boots, indicating her preference for high heels, he discerned. She was likely accustomed to wearing stilettos daily. The red complemented her, and he had conveyed this to her following their shower that morning.

Despite her dismissal of his hand from her clothed body, she asserted, “No. I’m fatigued.”

It had elicited a smile from him, for despite her refusal, she had offered him a little smile. He anticipated that she was beginning to comprehend his want for her. Although she appreciated the notion, she was aware that Maddis had not been with him, as he had informed her that he was exhausted from copulating with Tyler. This was the first occasion Maddis had experienced total tranquilly; never before had his beast slumbered so profoundly or for such an extended duration within his head following the Mating with his Mate.

It appears that Tyler was his equal in that regard. The constant presence of adrenaline in her system could be a factor, but it remains speculative; only time will reveal the truth. Once they restored her to her normal state.

“I observe you enjoy gazing at your Mate.” He recognised Alpha Philip’s voice, having not noticed his approach, light on his feet, it appeared.

“I am captivated by her,” he remarked, maintaining his gaze onto her. He then grinned and turned to address the man, stating, “my wolf is fixated on observing her.” I had never observed him in this manner before.

“Not even with your previous partner?”

It appears that this individual possessed extensive knowledge about him. Presumably conducted comprehensive investigation on him and the group.

“No, he was enamoured with her.”

“I understand that; however, the situation with Bella and Tyler is distinct.” He gestured for Alpha Philip to sit down and requested Amelia to come and take their orders.

“In what manner?”Philip enquired after he placed his order for a triple espresso.

“I am unable to articulate it.” Maddis appears more composed; Bella enters a room and desires to be with her, to embrace her.” He shook his head, “I experienced it the other day.” He smiled but refrained from mentioning that Tyler subsequently bit him. “He enjoys merely residing within my thoughts and observing her, regardless of her activities.”

“Where is your creature now?”The man’s gaze intensified onto him.

Remarkably, he appeared to be aware that Maddis was not conscious.

Bella believed it was prudent to release our wolf last night while sleeping. They copulated throughout the night.

“The entire night?”

“Approximately ten to three.” Smiled, “They are infatuated with one another.”

He heard the children ascending the stairs, animatedly discussing their hot chocolate with more marshmallows. He observed Alpha Philip turn and gaze at them as they all sprinted across the coffee centre towards Amelia, clearly exhibiting happiness and excitement at that moment.

Observed the trio smiling at Amelia while she gazed down at them, enquiring if they could wait a few minutes; they all nodded, appearing to stand patiently for their turn. They had previously visited and referred to her as Amelia, he observed.

He was uncertain about the appropriateness of their consuming sweets following the events of yesterday. He observed Bella grin at them as she approached him and Alpha Philip. Noticed that Macky remained with her, however he was on the phone; she dismissed him with a wave when he lightly touched her arm to get her attention. Engaged in conversation with one of his associates monitoring Nora.

Observed him proceed towards the location where Benzy and Lanky were seated, while Vera and Clara continued to accompany her, along with Philip’s Gamma following beside. The three women were conversing together. Philip rose as she neared. He also stood, recognising that Philip was only offering complete politeness to the pack’s Luna, as he was within her territory. A gesture of esteem, surpassing anything he had received himself. “Bella, it is pleasing to observe that you are in good health.” I am Alpha Philip of the Winter Moon Pack.

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.
