Alpha Damon (Sienna) novel Chapter 66

Damon:

I stood in the middle of my office, pacing like a caged animal. My hands were clenched into fists at my sides, my thoughts spiraling into something sharp and wild.

To say that I was livid, that I was furious, that I was angry, would be an understatement to what I was feeling.

She went.

She actually went.

Sienna De Luca, the woman who gave birth to my daughter, the woman who now resided under my roof, had defied me and left for a job interview.

The audacity.

The fucking nerve.

The fucking Omega had managed to defy me and stand in front of me the way that she did.

My chest heaved with each breath I took. I could still see her standing in front of me, her eyes on fire, daring me to stop her. She didn’t back down, didn’t flinch. And that infuriated me more than I wanted to admit.

It angered me more than I was supposed to be.

That wasn’t how a pack Luna should behave.

This was not how a pack Luna should be acting around the alpha.

Aluna was not meant to argue, to storm out and to go to an interview. She was not even meant to work. She had her priorities within the park. She had her responsibilities here.

My Luna was supposed to support me, stand beside me, not run off to take orders from humans behind a desk. Not when I was standing right here, offering her protection, security, everything. 1

What the hell is she thinking? Who the hell does she think she is?

“This is not what a Luna does,” I muttered under my breath, shaking my head. “This is not how she should be…” “She is no Luna,” my mother’s voice cut through the room like a blade.

I turned sharply to find her standing in the doorway, arms crossed, her expression cold and unreadable.

“What?” I asked, my voice sharp.

“You heard me, you are talking about Sienna and I am telling you this,” she said, stepping inside. “Sienna is not the Luna of this pack. And she never will be. If she is staying here right now, it is for that child that she gave you. That is the one reason why I don’t have the nerve in me to kill her. That child needs her to grow regardless of what I feel about it.”

“I don’t care if you fuck her. I don’t care if you raise your child with her. But Luna?” she hissed, “Never. I won’t allow it. No matter what happens, I’m going to be the one to stand in your face.”

“Last time I checked,” I said coldly, stepping closer, “you gave up that right when Father passed the Alpha title to me. That means I decide who stands beside me.”

Her lips parted, a flash of regret, or maybe doubt, crossing her face. But she didn’t back down.

“You may be Alpha, Damon. But you are still my son,” she said quietly. “And I will not stand by and watch you destroy yourself over someone who’s never going to understand what it means to wear that title. Even if it means me standing against you just to make sure that it does not happen.”

I didn’t respond.

Because for the first time in years, I wasn’t sure what to say.

Not because I agreed.

But because I knew that if I fought back, she was just going to end up putting it in her head to put Sienna in danger.

And right now I knew for a fact that Sienna was not ready for that kind of danger.
