Filed to story: Rylee the Orphan Luna Novel
Kaleigh huffed once indicating she heard me. I watched as they circled each other. Layla’s wolf Athena was bigger than Kaleigh, but I knew that Kaleigh was powerful because she was a natural-born Alpha. She also the biggest advantage because she could hear Layla’s thoughts.
Athena made the first move, which I could tell Kaleigh was anticipating and dodged. The cell we were in was small for two wolves, so Athena ran straight into the concrete wall. She quickly shook it off and lunged for Kaleigh again. I already knew Kaleigh and Rylee had this won. Layla was fighting with anger and wasn’t think about her moves. She wanted to get Rylee. Rylee on the other hand was calculating her moves, reading Layla’s thoughts, and waiting for an opening.
Was it unfair that Rylee could read minds, sure it was, but we’re all way past playing fair after all the s**t Layla did to break us up,
“Rylee, do not you use your powers!” Olivia shouted.
“What are you doing!?” I shouted at her.
“She cannot use her powers. The more she uses them, the better chance the vampire can hone in on her location,” I grunted having forgotten about that. I watched on as Kaleigh and Athena were full-on boxing now. Athena slashed at Kaleigh and made contact, but she healed almost instantly. That alone caught Athena off guard, which Kaleigh used the opening to s***h back, making Athena whimper from the pain.
Kaleigh jumped on her back and suck her teeth in Athena’s neck. The cries that came out of Athena were real, as Kaleigh used her super-strength to inflict as much damage as possible without killing her right away. Kaleigh jumped off and kicked Athena with her hind legs making Athena collide with the concrete wall. I guess all that training with William was finally coming in handy for her. I suddenly got a mind link from Layla, Wyatt! Please! Get her to stop hurting me!!
You brought this on yourself, Layla. You want to be Luna, well then, you’re going to have fight for it. You always bragged that you were stronger than her, so prove it.
Wyatt! I’m sorry!
Too late for that.
I cut off our link and blocked her out. She tried to run from Kaleigh who was stocking towards her, but Kaleigh caught her by the hind leg and pulled her with full force. I heard the bones breaking as Kaleigh practically chomped down. She pulled her again and then threw her into the other wall. I knew for a fact that since Rylee couldn’t use her powers, she was going to brute strength.
Is it wrong that I want our mate right now?
No, it’s not Blade, because I do too.
Kaleigh was moving with grace and fluidity. Almost as if she were dancing. Her steps were calculated and planned. She never did anything without thinking, while Layla had been acting on impulse and impulse alone. Her impulse was the main reason why she would never make a good Luna. That and she was cocky and full of herself. It wasn’t a secret that she was disliked by many, but instead of trying to fit in, she always did things her way. She always made it seem like she was better than everyone, and she bragged about being Luna one day. I often wonder where her mate is and if she ever did meet him. But I guess I’ll never know.
My thoughts were interrupted with a whaling cry shook the cell and I saw that Kaleigh had ripped off Athena’s hind leg, the one that she didn’t break.
“Oh, gross,” Milan almost gagged.
“Wow, that was a clean bite,” Olivia said, almost sounding impressed. Kaleigh then jumped on Athena again and latched on her neck. They rolled around on the ground as Athena tried to get Kaleigh off of her, but Kaleigh’s had a secure bite, and it was one that could suffocate Athena, but she didn’t. She let go and stood to her feet. She was prolonging Layla’s suffering. Athena struggled to stand, as she was bleeding all over. If Rylee didn’t kill her right away, she would probably end up bleeding to death. Athena stood on her remaining three legs, and she huffed. I thought she was going to try and charge again, but she didn’t. What she did next surprised us all. She submitted.
“What the…” Milan said. “Did she just submit?” Kaleigh growled at Athena, and then they both shifted back. Layla was fully disfigured and covered in wounds. She was pale and turning blue at the same time from blood loss. “ATHENA!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!” Layla screamed.
“Oh, I get it,” Milan retorted. “Your wolf submitted and went against you. She’s recognized Rylee as her Luna and her superior. She basically saved her own a*s and screwed you over,”
“Her wolf has blocked her out,” Rylee said. “Athena is asking for mercy,”
“She would never!” Layla shouted.
“She is speaking to me and she said that she regrets ever being paired with a selfish and manipulative human counterpart such as yourself. She also says that she wishes she could see her mate one more time,”
“So, you did have a mate,” Milan said. “Let me guess, you rejected him in hopes that Wyatt would choose you,”
“Oh my god,” Rylee gasped
“What is it?” I asked her.
“Her mate, Athena told me who her mate is,” she looked at all of us with wide eyes. “I can’t believe you,” she said to Layla. “All this time, your mate, the one person who’s wanted you, has been in front of you the whole time, and all you’ve done is f**k him over!? What is the matter with you!?”
“I DON’T’ WANT HIM! I WANT WYATT!!!”
“He hasn’t even accepted your rejection,” Rylee said making all of us stare at her.
“Dearest, what did you say?”
“Her mate, he never accepted her rejection,”
“It’s a pack member?” Milan asked and Rylee’s face saddened.
“It’s someone we know, very well,”
“What? Who!?” Milan and I asked.
“It’s Darius, the castle guard,”
“Milan, go get him,”
“No, I……don’t want to see him,” Layla croaked. The blood loss was starting to get to her. “He’s not my mate,”
“We’re not doing it for you, we’re doing it for him. He needs closure,” I said to her. “Milan, go,” Milan ran out of the dungeon and we just stared at Layla. I realized that Rylee was still naked, so I had Olivia conjure up a shirt for her. Milan came back a few minutes later with Darius,
“Alpha, you wanted to see…Luna?!?”
“Ah s**t, I knew I forgot something,” I muttered to myself.
“Luna? How?”
“Later Darius,” I said to him. Just don’t tell anyone, that’s an order.
“Yes, Alpha,” he replied and looked at me.
