The Female Alpha You Can't Tame

Chapter 20: Chapter 20 I am here, Luna

Today’s world is different, when we hurt each other instead of talking it out and healing ourselves we completely ignore the other for nothing else but just to gain their attention. Just for them to look at you, hoping that at night they would lay awake on their beds, thoughts of you consuming them, that at least somehow you could be with them, even though it’s just in their thoughts. This is the relationship Deimos and I possess right now.

I haven’t seen nor spoken to Deimos since our last argument. My body and mind tired, my hope fragile and my soul tearing. If he speaks or does anything hurtful, I will definitely break. And even thinking about it makes me gag. I fought through everything for nothing. To what I thought would be my strength turned out to be my biggest weakness and downfall. To what I thought would be my prize for my rein turned out to be my hindrance.

On the other hand, Cronus and I grow closer day by day. Everything of us coming to light between us. His secrets pouring out of him to me slowly, letting me indulge in them. He sparks happiness within me the moment I see him, his ever so bubbly nature enticing me pulling me in. He never fails to make me laugh with his persistent trial of making good jokes and always takes me away from this place, away from him.

Laughter erupts from the females around breaking me free from my thoughts. Frowning I look around to figure out what they seem to find hilarious and my eyes widen when I catch sight of Cronus dripping wet running after Elriam trying to catch him.

"What is going on?" I ask my females.

"Cronus was drinking some water from the lake, Beta kicked him from the back making him fall face first into the water." One on the female answers me chuckling as I begin chuckling with her watching the hilarious scene in front of me. But all our giggles stop to a pin drop silence when Cronus strips himself off his shirt giving us a perfect view of his sculpted upper body replacing our chuckles with open drooling mouths.

I look away as our eyes meet while he seemed to be getting excited as he neared us. The females seem to understand something is between us but cannot seem to get a hint of what it is. Kneeling down to my side with a pout he begins to complain like a pup.

"You need to banish your beta, Luna. She kicked your precious Cronus into the water." He tells me with fake sad eyes while narrowing them at Elriam. Slowly sipping my hot coffee, I look at him.

"And why must I do that Cronus? Elriam is quite precious to me as well." I question him.

"This is unfair, Luna. You like her more than me." His pout growing, he tells me.

"Behave, Cronus. I’ll give you candy if you do so. Be a good pup." A smile comes across my face as I tease him while his cheeks grow red as the females laugh to my comment. Our lazy happy afternoon Is interrupted by Ragon. Why does this always happen? Why does Deimos always make him interrupt us?

"Luna." He bows down greeting me.

"Ragon." I nod to him returning his greeting. He deserves my acknowledgement; he is a good male.

"You are late for the training. All of you must leave to the training grounds. Alpha’s orders." Ragon informs us. That male Deimos, can he not give me a break? Does he want to face my wrath? My wolf and I are unstable we will tear flesh if we feel something or someone is unworthy.

"I think it’s safer for me to remain here, Ragon." I tell him looking straight into his eyes, he understands my indirect threat. Closing his eyes, the male makes contact with someone, probably Deimos. As the tension seems to increase between us, Cronus interrupts trying to dissolve it.

"Alright, guess what Luna if we go, I can teach you archery." He tells me sparking curiosity within me. He smiles knowing he won. He knows now I will definitely go making me wonder if I showed this male too much of me that he can quite easily predict me.

Going to the ground, my hands shake showing my nervousness. I will have to see Deimos; I am not ready here. Holding my shaking fist in his warm hands Cronus whispers soothingly to me. "I am here Luna; trust me it’ll be fun."

As we reach the grounds, I keep my head down walking in Cronus’s shadow like an afraid pup. But he seems to shield me and so I hide. I hide until I hear Deimos’s loud voice booming through the grounds.

"Get into teams of two now!" He seems exceptionally angry today. Avoiding any sort of contact with him I form up behind Cronus getting ready to spar.

"You think you can beat me, Luna?" He questions me with a sly smile erupting a snicker from within me.

"Do you not know what I am capable of, pup?" I question him smirking getting excited to fight with this male, my wolf agreeing. As we get into positions to spar a memory flows through my mind. A memory where Deimos and me sparred. It’s a fond memory of mine and this forces me to look at him.

I watch him my ears tuning out what Cronus is saying, my eyes staring at Deimos’s flesh. Looking at him after so long shows me of my hunger for him. The way his eyes constantly move from one team to another, the way his mouth opens to shout at wolves sparring wrong, the way his hands move to show them the correct position, the way drops of sweat roll down his body reacting to the scorching hot sun, the way-

"Luna!?" Cronus breaks me off from my hungry eyes and thoughts. "What are you thinking about? Let’s spar!" He tells me and so we begin. Our personal game of who throws the other to the floor. Cronus is really good dodging me easily predicting some of my moves before they come. But before I could form up on a plan to attack him, he puts his foot in front of mine making my eyes widen as I fall to the ground with him on top of me.

With wide eyes and heaving chests we look at each other our faces really close, Cronus’s hands at each of my side holding his weight. We just look at each other without saying a word. Cronus’s eyes moving from my eyes to my lips making my eyes widen further. What is this male thinki-

"Enough! What the fuck are you both doing?" A loud rumble tears through Deimos’s chest as he screams at us making us get up at once, making me hide behind Cronus. My eyes widen as I take notice of what I did, why did I hide behind Cronus? Oh god, if Deimos saw that-

"Why did you hide behind him mate?" Deimos questions me in his calm voice trying to reign in his anger. Dammit he did see it.
