#2 Chapter 74
Chapter 74.
Everywhere were silent as the Blackhood family stared at each other, they were still in the garden.
Katherine suddenly broke the silence, “But your formal luna is dead! She is long gone and you are our father! If you love your dead luna so much like you are claiming, then why did you made love with mom? Why did you allowed it to happen and why are you claiming us?” Katherine yelled at Damien, standing straight to his face as he was still sitting on the flowered bench.
“I was drunk when we made love and I claimed you because you are mine! I put you three in your mother’s womb by myself and you three are mine!” Damien yelled, finally losing his cool.
“You will not be here shouting if mom had gone for an abortion, you wouldn’t be claiming us if we have died when mom was trying to birth us, you won’t be here shouting if mom didn’t allow us to go to the mall that day where you saw us. You won’t be here.” Xander said this time.
“And you claimed to love us, but it is all a lie because you still love your dead luna and you cannot love someone else.” Annabelle muttered.
Damien calmed down immediately, “No, that’s not true. I love you three, I love you so much.” He pulled the three of them into an hug. “I love you three I swear.”
“If you love us like you claim then proof it to us.” Katherine told him.
“How will I proof it?”
“Love mom as well.” Xander said.
“Yes, show her that you care about her and appreciate her for taking care of us till today.” Annabelle added.
“I wish I can do that but it is not possible, I can’t love your mom, I’m sorry.” Damien told them.
“Its fine.” Katherine told him and continued, “Tomorrow, as early as 5:00, we will be going back home, we cannot stay here when our parents are not in good terms and you cannot stop us from going, infact, I dare you to stop us!” Katherine told Damien and walked away.
“And we will be going with Katherine and mom, we are so tired here and we will go back to Mark and Jose.” Annabelle said and walked away too, following Katherine.
“I have nothing to say, goodbye father.” Xander too followed them.
Damien watched them leave and stared at Luna with a cold face, she was busy staring at the floor.
“I know you are happy now, is that not what you want? For them to turn their backs at me?” He accused her.
“I’m so sorry my alpha,” She sniffed and then continued, “I will talk to them, I’m sure they are only joking.” Luna said and bowed, she turned to leave.
“Wait!” Damien called her back. He walked up to her and lifted up her head with his fingers under her chin, only to be met with a red soaked face. “What the hell! Why are you crying?” He was confused, firstly because he didn’t know why she was crying and secondly because he didn’t understood why he was interfering?
“It’s nothing my alpha, I will go in first.” She said and ran inside the mansion, leaving only him alone in the garden.
Damien sat down back on the flowered bench, “They are demanding for something too much, how can they demand for me to leave the memory of my dear luna behind me? How can I love someone like their mom when my beautiful luna still lives on in my heart?” Damien roughed his hair as his heart pricked him. “Damn it! What is wrong with me?”

Luna was running in the corner looking hallway as she tried to find the way back to her room, she exhaled when the normal hallway that leads to her room came into sight, “Finally.” She thought and quickened her steps.
She successfully got into her room and opened the door, fright enveloped her immediately as she stared at the thick dark room. “I always keep my light on, then why is it off?” She wondered frighteningly as she traced her hand on the wall looking for the switch and switched the light on immediately she got hold of it.
“Ah!!” She squeaked and jerked back in fear when she saw that she was not alone in the room.
“Finally, you decided to show up here.” The person in her room said with his back facing her, he was staring out of the room through the window, he then gently turned back to her.
“Carl? Um I mean young alpha.” She quickly bowed her head, “What are you doing here young alpha.” She asked slowly and calmed her racing heart. She knew that Carl was not so wicked and that he cannot hurt her if she didn’t cross her line.
“I miss you and I have been searching around for you. I’m glad I finally find you.” He took heavy steps towards her and pulled her into a bone crushing hug.
“Young alpha.” Luna called him and gently disengaged from the hug. “You shouldn’t be here, it is dangerous for you to be here and I don’t want to get into trouble.” She told him and took some steps away from him. “Please leave.”
“Don’t you want to hear why I’m here? Don’t you?” Carl asked her and walked closer to her again, he held her hands and stared into her eyes affectionately, “Please hear me out before chasing me away.” He pleaded.
“Young alpha…”
“Call me Carl and I’m no more the young alpha, I am now the alpha of the Crystal pack.” He told her.
“Wow! Congratulations!”
“Thank you but it doesn’t worth it. Come, let’s sit down to talk.” He pulled her to the couch in her room and sat down beside her.
“How is madam Sandra doing?” Luna was planning of bringing madam Sandra over to the Black Hood when she settles down.
“No, she is gone. She died when she was helping you in escaping, she gave out too much powers and she died. My mom died too and dad went missing.” Carl explained.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Luna spanked up from the couch, “You must be kidding me.” Her eyes began moist, she was trying not to believe him.
“Its the truth, your stepmother killed my mom.” He declared, “Everything was not so good after you departed.”
Luna sob immediately and gently sat down. “I really want to pay them back for what they did for me, I love them both. I’m so sorry they died because of me, I’m sorry Carl.”
Carl pulled her into his embrace. “I was broken too and I still am, that is why I’m here.”
Luna disengaged from the hug and wiped her tears but more came down. “What do you mean?”
“I want someone by my side, trust me it’s not easy to be alone and you are my mate, I want you now than ever, please Luna, what would you say if I say that you should come with me to my pack?”
