THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

Hardin’S POV

Can you imagine that I had a dream about Reign today?

I actually dreamed that I accepted her as my mate and that we were happily married and even had a son. All because the pheromone I smelt on her earlier.

I tell you, she’s doing something to me and if I don’t act fast, I’ll be sorry.

I can’t, I just can’t fall for Reign, she has caused me so much pain that I just can’t see myself being happy with her. Even if her pheromone attracts me from now till tomorrow, I will never be attracted to her, I will never give in to my heart’s and Adam’s demands. I control them, they don’t control me.

Crap!

I kept reminiscing about her pheromone before going to bed and that’s what made me have that nightmare.

Yes!

Reign and I being together will be nothing but a night mare. How can I be with a murderer, more to that, she killed my chosen mate, I can never bring myself to forgive her.

Never!

“Mate!” Adam suddenly screams in my head and immediately, that smell takes me again. That peculiar pheromone and it seems stronger than it was yesterday.

She’s around. I had sent for her and I can tell that she is around.

Oh my Holy Moon goddess, the smell. I can’t even think again properly and when I hear the sound of a knock at the door, my heart starts beating abnormally. Adam starts summersaulting excitedly in my mind and I just shut him out. If l don’t, he’ll take over me the moment Reign walks in here and if he does, I will do the stupidest thing of all times.

I might even mark her.

“Come in” I signal and immediately, the door creaks and when my eyes fall on her perfect slim body, when her enticing pheromone hits fills my nostrils, I sit up unconsciously from my seat and look at her from head to toe.

She takes calculated steps towards my table and when she arrives she stands still with her head bowed down.

“Good morning Alpha” She greets and the moment her voice hits my ears, blood sings in my veins.

She calls my name like it amuses her, entertains her and her voice is so calm and smooth, but lacks a great deal of confidence and I know exactly why and I like it.

I like the fact that she fears me, that she trembles whenever she is in my presence.

That is what she deserves.

“You sent for me”

“Yes, I did”

“So, what would the Alpha want me to do for him?”

“News reached me that to your roommates tried to touch you inappropriately. Is that true?” I ask sternly and shie just nods.

I grit my teeth in anger as I let out a heavy breath.

How dare they!

How dare they break my rule?

No female werewolf is supposed to touch another inappropriately in my pack, more to that against her will!

I will have them punished.

Wait, why am I even so furious? This is supposed to sound pleasant to me, but surprisingly, it’s not.

I’m greatly nerved and I’ll make sure to punish those woman severely.

“Are you sure you didn’t cause trouble”

“No Alpha, I didn’t”

“Hmmm. And I was told the supervisor changed your room”

“Yes she did”

“Are you comfortable in… I mean, I don’t care!” I instantly change my statement with a firm tone. “Today you won’t be working at the security, you’ll be cleaning my…” I stop to think.

As it is now, her pheromone is doing things to me that I cannot explain.

Initially, I wanted to order her to clean my office, but I have a lot of work to do. I can’t have her cleaning while I’m working, the smell of her pheromone will do nothing but distract me and I will do no work. Also, I might loose my mind and do something inappropriate.

Prevention is better than cure.

I’d rather avoid the mistake than try to fix it when it has already been done.

“So, you will be cleaning my bedroom” I announce before I even reason out what I have just said and she snaps her head up to look at me.

“Hmmm?” She asks shocked and I crease my brows.

“Got a problem with that?” I ask daringly and she shakes her head.

“No! Of course not!”

“Good, now I need you go and keep my room clean and spotless. Scrub the floor, dust every furniture in it, change my sheets and do every other thing that needs to be done in it and do it perfectly.” I command and she nods.

“Yes, Alpha”

“You can leave now” She turns to leave and when she gets to the door I call. “Reign”

“Yes Alpha” She answers as she stops on her tracks and turns to face me.

“Make sure not to touch anything!” I command and she looks at me with a creased brow, but then she nods and walks out with a confused look on her face.

I slump on my couch and let out breath I did even realize I was holding.

My entire office is filled with her pheromone and it’s driving me …

Wait, what did I say to her?

I asked her not to touch anything in my room, how then is she going to clean stuff and change my sheets if I have ordered her not to touch anything?

I have completely lost my mind.

This girl is driving me crazy!

What nonsense!

My office door creaks open and my Beta, Miguel walks in with an eternal frown plastered on his face.

I wonder what he has come to reprimand me about this time around.

“Hardin” He calls and I raise my head up to look at him.

“Miguel, can you smell it?” I ask referring to the pheromone and Miguel sniffs for a while and shakes his head.

“Apart from your usual cologne, I can’t smell anything else”

“How can you not get this smell that fills the entire atmosphere?” I ask in frustration and he gives me a queer look.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I saw Reign heading to your bedroom, she said you instructed her to clean it”

“You spoke with her?”

“Yeah, I did. Did she just exit this office?” He asked as he kept giving me the creepy queer look.

“Yes she…”

“Ahah! Then what do except? It’s her pheromone and because she’s you’re mate, only you can perceive it, how can you even ask me such a question. Some Alpha you are!” He mocks as her slams the book he came with on the table and serves himself a glass of wine.

“The thing is , you can’t understand”

“Try me” He dares as he sits on the chair opposite mine.

“When Wilma was alive, she emitted the same pheromone, I used to smell this same pheromone on Wilma’s body” I explain and he puts his glass down and looks at me long and hard and then shakes his head in disapproval.

“No, no, that’s impossible. Two shewolves can never emit the same pheromone, never!” He denies and I just get confused all the more.

If that’s the case then, what the hell is going on?

“This is crazy, this is just crazy.” I lament.

“It’s not, I keep telling you to investigate this issue, but you won’t listen to me. These are loop holes that you can use to find out what really happened. Hardin, it’s not too late, investigate this issue and find out what really happened to Wilma, if it happens that Reign is guilty as you claim, then fine, you can keep torturing, but if she is innocent, it’s not too late for you to make it up to her. This is not an advice from a Beta to his Alpha, it’s an advice from a friend to his best friend and brother. I beseech you bro, investigate before drawing conclusions”

He says as he empties his glass and walks to the door. When he gets there, he suddenly stops and turns around.

“What now?” I ask as I roll my eyes.

“I thought Reign was with security crew, why is she doing maid duties.”

“She’s my servant, she will whatever I want her to do” I state firmly and he just nods and exits the office.

I sit on my couch and Miguel’s words replay on my mind.

He’s always hitting that nerve.

Reign and Wilma emitting the same pheromone is truly impossible. He says I should properly investigate this issue.

How do I even go about it?

And I ask for the umpteenth time, what exactly is going on?

What happened or what is happening that I know nothing about?
