The Alpha’s Contract Luna alexia By Lian

Chapter 16
“You bitch!” Drake, Alexia’s stepbrother, screamed as he sprawled on the ground.
Back at the Cross River Pack, Sheena flung Drake’s b*dy in front of his mother, sister, and Alpha Roland. They were standing at
the packhouse’s driveway, waiting for Roland to give his promised compensation.
With ten warriors from the Stone Blood Pack standing behind her, she confidently claimed, “Consider yourself lucky to be alive
despite what you have done to our luna!”
“Enough!” Roland yelled. He threw the duffle bag in front of Sheena and said, “You have your money! Now leave!”
Sheena picked up the bag and had one warrior inspect the money. Then she replied, “Oh, we will. After we check, all two million
dollars are accounted for.”
It had been two days since they arrived at the Cross River Park’s territory and exactly two days since they had taken. Drake to
one of the pack’s abandoned houses. Drake had received a beating, repeatedly being warned about touching. women against
their wills.
They only brought him back after Alpha Roland sent one of his men, suggesting he was ready to pay up.
“If he ever lays a hand on an innocent woman again, I will not hesitate to come back and teach him a lesson!” Sheena warned,
her eyes glowering at Alpha Roland and Drake’s mother, Matilda. “Remember, Alpha Kieran will have eyes.

and ears within your pack. We will cut off Drake’s hands the next time he assaults a woman!”
Matilda, Drake’s mother, hurriedly soothed his son. She wept as she caressed his bruised face. Her eyes landed on the cut on
his l*p and his right brow. She screamed at Sheena, “You may have gotten away with this, but we will report you to the King!”
“He favors us because he asked Alexia to be married to Alpha Kieran! When the king receives our message, you and Alpha
Kieran, including Alexia, will be punished!” Matilda asserted.

The warriors behind Sheena laughed. Sheena also could not help but mock the woman in front of her. Sheena responded, “Try.
You think the king will favor a potential rapist?!”
Sheena turned to Alpha Roland and pointed out, “You think the king will favor a father who failed to protect his daughter?
Instead, maltreated her?!”
A sneer formed on Sheena’s face as she added, “You are not worthy of being an alpha! I pity this pack –”
“Tell my sister; she is pathetic to report to her husband!” Hazel, Alexia’s stepsister, interrupted. She stood behind her mother and
brother, raising her voice. “She thinks so highly of herself? Just because she married Alpha Kieran?!”
Hazel let out a sinister laugh. Then she revealed, “What good is it being married to a powerful man when her husband is ruthless
and ugly? Alexia must require a blindfold every night, just to bear his face! Haha!”
“I bet Alpha Kieran does not even care for her at all. This is just a way to get money from us!” Hazel concluded. “You
o
may have taken our money, but Alexia is still pitiful!”
Chapter 16
Hearing Hazel, Sheena shook her head. She could also hear the warrior’s disapproving whispers. Some were even laughing at
Hazel’s claims. Following a low growl, Sheena warned, “My alpha will hear of this. Don’t worry. He will come to see you!”
Immediately, Sheena saw Hazel’s face turn ghostly white.
-Alexia-

“Alexia, I’m coming for you.”
Meanwhile, at the Stone Block Pack, an image of a
winter–grey wolf speaking, awoke Alexia. Immediately, she felt chills down her spine. She sat up and curled her legs against her
chest, saying, “It’s that same dream again. Was it real?”
She felt it was so real, like she said the wolf was speaking to her. All Alexia knew about the winter–grey wolves was the fact that
they were a rare kind. Why was she suddenly having dreams about such a wolf?
Sighing, she muttered, “I best ask Rae about them.”
When her eyes landed on the wall clock, she realized she needed to get up. Kieran was leaving at seven in the
morning, and she wanted to cook breakfast.
Alexia was already in the kitchen at five in the morning, helping the cook and the maids.
When Kieran arrived at the dining table, Alexia was unsure if he still wanted to eat with her. After all, last night was an
exception. He only wanted to have dinner together to
remind her of her responsibilities in the packhouse.

Chapter 16
Alexia served Kieran’s plate and then took a step back, waiting and examining him.
Kieran looked amazingly handsome that morning. He wore a blue shirt that stretched nicely across his broad chest. The same
hugged his b*dy perfectly, taking the form of his muscular arms and flat stomach. His grey trouser also hugged his thick thighs
and long legs.
Necklaces dangled around his neck. His oxford shoe and his expensive watch gave him a more elegant vibe.
Alexia observed how he sat silently, his eyes studying his plate. Then, he leaned back and said, “Eat with me. I have a few
reminders.”
The maids who were close were quick to fetch Alexia her plate. They simply indulged in their meals.

Seconds and minutes passed, but Kieran had not said a word. As Alexia ate, she pondered in her head, ‘Wonder what reminders
he needs to tell me?’
Alexia was almost done with her food when she finally asked, “Kieran, what – what reminders do you have for me?”
“Reminders?” Kieran lifted his brow, asking. “Oh, that.”
Clearing his throat, he replied, “Don’t you even think of sleeping on the floor while I am away.”
“Oh.” Alexia flushed. She bit her l*p and answered, “I – I haven’t been. It’s been a few days since I slept on the floor.”
“Hmmm,” Kieran said.
After breakfast, Jaxon and Rae arrived at the hospital. They briefly chatted with Kieran in the living room before
Chapter 16
everyb*dy stepped outside the packhouse.
At the front lawn of the red–brick mansion, a few pack members were waiting for their alpha in the driveway. Ten families came
to send gifts for their sons or daughters on the southern coast of Taplean, fighting the war.
“Alpha, Kieran. May you give this to Dan.”
“Alpha, these are Nowel’s favorite pastries. If he has this, he won’t feel so homesick.”
“Alpha, these are for you and the warriors fighting the war. We hope these will bring them strength.”
Alexia saw a familiar face. It was Mara, the midwife. She was with her daughter, Cindy. Mara handed Kieran a treat box, saying,
“Alpha, these are for you. These are coffee shots mixed into troubles. It will keep you alert in those boring council meetings you
have. Haha!”
For the first time since Alexia had arrived at the Stone Blood Pack, she saw Kieran smile. He said, “Thank you, Mara.”
Apparently, Alexia thought, the man knew how to smile.
Kieran passed some boxes and bags to the warriors traveling with him to the metropolis, Yland. It is where the castle is located,
the home of the king and queen of Taplean. After which, he bid goodbye to the pack members who were around.

“Please be safe, Alpha!” Cindy, the little pup, waved her hand at Kieran. Then her gaze landed on Alexia. She added, “Aren’t you
going to say goodbye to our luna?”
“Hmmm.” Kieran turned to Alexia and said, “Goodbye,

Chapter 16
Alexia.”
“Goodbye, Kieran. Be safe,” Alexia replied.
Looking past Alexia, he added, “Goodbye, Jaxon, Rae. You know what to do.”
“Goodbye, Alpha,” Rae and Jaxon said, almost at the same
time.
“Our dearest luna, please don’t forget to give our alpha a good luck k*ss! In the pack, the alpha’s strength is always his luna!”
Mara suggested, and the rest of the pack members who were there echoed the same.
Heat spread across Alexia’s face, and her throat felt dry. What was she going to do?
Her heart was racing, and while trying to calm her emotions, Kieran walked closer to him. Without warning, he leaned over and
sealed her l*ps with a k*ss, his eyes closing.
His hand rested at the back of her neck as he gently nibbled her l*ps.
‘So soft, she thought about his l*ps. In that brief yet stirring k*ss, the sound of their pecks appeared deafening in Alexia’s
ears.
When Kieran pulled away, Alexia felt his thumb caressed her jaws. He said, “Take care of the packhouse.”
He waved at the pack members before hopping into one car.
Again, there were no signs of how he felt about the k*ss. Kieran did not mindlink, nor did he show in his face if he was pleased or
agitated. He just left Alexia utterly restless, her heart going wild from the unexpected k*ss.

With a sigh, Alexia said, “Goddess. Help me.”
“Trust me. The Moon Goddess is helping!” Behind her, Rae teased. She and Jaxon laughed at what they had witnessed.
