Betrayed Luna's Second Chance Alphas
Betrayed Luna’s Second Chance Alphas – Chapter 30

-Roman-

Dinner with family was something I loved and hated at the same time. I loved my family, but sometimes they were just too much for me.

“Roman? You look distracted?” my dad said as he pushed me the big bowl of pasta. “Eat.”

“No, no, dad, I am okay and I am done. I can’t eat anymore. I am full,” I said with a sigh as I leaned against the chair.

My mother smiled as she put a hand on my shoulder. “No, Roman. You are not okay. So is it about that girl Finn told us about?”

“No one in this family knows how to keep a secret,” I grumbled with a frown and my mother laughed as she shook her head. I glared at my brother and he gave me a shrug.

“Oh darling, we are not equipped to keep secrets from each other. Now, spill the beans, boy,” my mother said as she leaned closer to me, her eyes attentive. She was the only one who called me BOY!

“Mother, I can’t talk about my love life with you. That is just- no.” I shook my head as I took a big bite of my pizza and turned to Finn with a growl. “You should have just kept your mouth shut.”

“Why not? I have three of you, and I am actually the best one to give relationship advice.”

“Whoa there, mom. No one is talking about relationships,” I said and she laughed.

“And mom, we just believe that you made the three of us in the Build your wolves section in a children’s toy store or something,” Finn said with a shudder.

“I made Roman in the backseat of your dad’s old jeep. You were made in the ki-“

“Mom, mom, stop. TMI, mom,” Finn and I shouted as we stood up together.

“Okay, we are leaving to meet Bella, dad. Let’s hope she has something,” I said and walked out of the dining room, while Finn was talking with my dad.

My mom followed me out of the dining room, her eyes watching my every move.

“Roman, you deserve happiness, and I have never seen you look so- so relaxed. Something changed after your visit to Crystal Park and I know it was the girl and it makes me happy. Hold on to her, Roman. She will be good for you.” My mother gave me a soft smile, and everything in me yearned for what she wanted for me, but I also knew that life wasn’t… roses and bouquets of flowers.

Bad things happen. Some people die. Some cheat. Life was not straightforward and easy.

I shook my head. “No, mother. We are — she is not in the place for a relationship and neither am I, mom. It just wouldn’t work out,” I said, much to Karl’s displeasure. He let out a deep growl in response to my words.

“How do you know, Roman, if you don’t even try? It has been too long since Feyona. You are my baby, and I want everything good for you. Feyona wasn’t the one.”

“But I thought she was. So what is the guarantee anyone was the one? I am done with all of this, mom. I am good the way I am right now.”

“I have never seen you look like this, Roman, happy, and that is why I want you to give Riley a chance.”

“You already know her name too.” I rolled my eyes and my mother laughed. “Finn is an idi.ot. Come on, idi.ot, let’s go, or Bella won’t be too happy.”

Finn walked out and we drove towards Bella’s apartment. “So, what do you think of those gruesome pictures, Rome?” Finn asked as we took the elevator. “Could it really be something Ramsay is doing?”

“I am sure it is. Was he trying to create vampires? Hybrids?” I glared at the blinking golden light above my head. “I just wish we could kill him. You know…”

“I do fantasize about plunging a stake through his heart and cutting his head off with a machete, but…”

“Yes. If it wasn’t for that ‘but’ this would have been over the second we knew he was involved. The a*****e is one of the powerful members in the vampira council, and there is just no way we can touch him without any proof,” I growled with frustration. “Or it will be war.”

The elevator stopped on the sixth floor. We looked around, once again, to make sure we were alone, before walking to Bella’s apartment. She opened before we could even ring the bell.

“Hey guys,” Dean looked up from something he was reading.

Bella motioned us to sit. “This is bad, Rome, Finn,” she whispered as she took the couch opposite to us. “The illegal fighting ring is terrible, but this- this sounds like a horrible disaster. Experiments…” She shuddered. “So, I spied on that guy, you know, the one you sent the picture of. That slimeball.”

“Go on.”

“I caught him meeting with Ramsay directly, and twice, too. You know Dean has been trying to get a meeting with Ramsay for months now, but still can’t. So that guy, whoever he was, he wasn’t just some random bloke, Rome. You made the right decision to go to Crystal Park. I have a feeling that this guy is more involved than any of us had previously thought. He is in deep, Rome.”

“Bella is right. I think we will get closer to Ramsay’s operations through Hiran Waites,” Dean said.

“So, Bella, did you hear anything? Got any audio clips?”

“I couldn’t get any audio. I almost got caught. But I heard some names being mentioned, and they both looked serious. I also heard Ramsay saying, the supply has to keep coming. The other guy wasn’t very pleased. That’s all I got. I am sorry I couldn’t-“

“No, Bella, this is already more than enough,” Finn said. “We know how dangerous it is, what you and Dean are doing.”

“Well, we become a part of Red Watchers for this,” Bella shrugged.

“They didn’t have any doubt, right?”

“No. I am just a rich, spoiled bit.ch who wants to party hard and spend hee parents’ fortune. Nobody suspects otherwise. It is good I am not as popular as my playboy brother,” Bella said with a chuckle and I grumbled.

“That’s good, Bella. And please be safe,” I said as I hugged her and she sighed as she buried her face in my chest.

“Of course, Rome. You too.”

“Yes.” I said as she pulled away. “Bye, Bella.”

“I will call Finn when I find more, huh?”

I nodded as Finn and I walked out of her apartment, and quickly reached our obscure car, which we chose just because it was easily forgettable.

My phone pinged again. I grabbed it and smiled when I saw Ashelene’s message.

We are here, and the pups are safe. Just called Riley, too.

***

-Riley-

“Me? Was that me? Well, you will never know!” I blinked at Hiran and gave him a big smile, showing him all my teeth. It was how a great white shark would smile at you, before making you as its next meal.

“I will find out, Riley, and if it was you, you will have to pay for that,” he snarled out.

“Yeah, whatever,” I scoffed as I walked closer to him. “And Hiran, take some rest for tonight, because you won’t be resting anymore.”

“What the hell are you-“

“Hush! Don’t make so much noise, or maybe I will really make sure the p***s matches the balls. You know, broken d.ick is not… fun. Not that your d.ick is useful or anything, but still…”

“You f*****g-“

“You know, that night I cheated on — wait, no, that night I finally took my revenge on you, that was the first good f.uck I have had in years.” I closed my eyes and I could immediately remember how Roman felt inside me. My breathing hitched. I blinked my eyes and shook my head. s**t, this wasn’t the time to get distracted by Roman’s di.ck.

“But it is a very, very extraordinary di.ck.” Gem! This creature had gone completely mad.

“And that was my first org.asm, too. In perspective, after thinking about it for a long while, I think I am a bit grateful that you have cheated on me. Or I would have died never knowing how real org.asm would feel like and that would have been such a shame, no?”

“You bloody- I am going to-” Hiran growled and tried to jump up, and then winced, before adjusting himself on the bed.

“Oh, protect your already broken balls, Alpha, or I don’t think you will ever get to use them again.”

“I will kill you… Riley.”

“We both know you won’t. Your time starts now, Hiran. And you will regret every moment of it, until you are begging me. You made a mistake when you refused to let me go.”

“Have you forgotten about your pups?” His eyes gleamed in malice. He thought he could forever control me, keep me as his slave by threatening my pups. Not anymore. Now that they were safe, there was nothing that would stop me from paying him back for what he had done to me, us.

“Pups? What pups? I don’t have any pups with you and thank the goddess for that.” I blinked. “Get some rest, Hiran. Because it is going to get bumpy for you,” I said with a smile as he growled. “Oh, here is doctor Abel. I have some work to do. Bye.”

I walked out the room and grabbed my phone when it rang. I smiled when I saw Ashelene’s name.

“I promised I will call you as soon as our feet touched the ground. It did. We are enroute to Nightshade, and we are all safe. Stop worrying now. And start thinking about how to destroy your mate. I am already rooting for you. Go.”

“Thank you, Ashelene. Okay, bye. Tell them I love them.”

I walked towards the dining room. I was hungry from goading Hiran.

Reid and Adrian looked up as I entered the room. “Where did you go?” Reid asked as I sat next to him.

“Oh, I am just coming back from visiting your brother,” I said with a chuckle. “Someone crushed his balls and he is worried why it is not healing yet.”

Adrian gasped and looked up and his eyes met mine. I nodded and he shook his head with a smile.

“Do you know who did that?” Reid asked and I gave him an innocent shrug.

“No idea. He must have angered someone else,” I said as Adrian grabbed a slice of pizza and handed it to me.

“Thanks Adrian,” I said as he looked at me again. “And Ash called. They are safe.”

“I am so happy to hear that,” Adrian said with a deep sigh.

“I am and now I am going to go to my room and sleep. I haven’t slept properly in a while,” I said with a yawn, and Adrian and Reid chuckled.

“Come on then, I will walk you to your room,” Adrian said, and I nodded. I leaned against him as he put an arm around my shoulder as we climbed upstairs.

“I really am grateful to all of you,” I whispered.

“I know.” He pressed a k**s on my cheek and softly pressed his palms to my cheeks. “I am sorry you have to go through all of this, Riley.”

“I think I am not. Not anymore. Hiran is a bad guy, all around, and I am glad I have found out about it. Okay, goodnight,” I said as he looked at me with eyes that made my heart twist. His eyes were yearning…

I wanted to lean into his touch, but…

“Bye.”

“Bye, Riley,” he said with a sigh before he walked away. I walked inside and closed the door and jumped on my bed, and soon fell asleep.

“Wake up, Luna. You are done sleeping,” a soft voice teased the fine hair at the back of my neck. I stirred and m****d when a hand cupped my breast through my shirt. The touch was familiar. The scent was familiar. And then I felt the cold air on my skin when the shirt was ripped open.

“Ahh… Rome…” A soft m**n left my lips and I g*****d when my hands were pulled up and I felt the cold metal on my wrist. Arousing. Enticing another deep m**n out of me.

The sensation of his warm breath ruffling my hair made me shudder all over again. It wasn’t what he did; it was how he did it. His lips were gentle yet firm, his tongue teasing as it moved down my throat. Was I dreaming? I probably was, but I didn’t care. All I cared about was the amazing sensations that ran along my nerves.

When he reached my chest, he stopped kissing me long enough to say, “You taste delicious.” Then he kissed my ni.pple, before he bit down gently on the tip, eliciting a gasp from me. My body began to tremble as he traced his tongue across my skin, first one breast, then the other. When he finally let go of my n.ipple, I m****d in disappointment.

His deep voice rumbled in my ear, sounding dangerously delicious. “You’re so soft, so warm, like silk in my hand, and I have missed you. I want to be buried inside you, Kitten. NOW.”

“Am I dreaming?”
