Chapter 17 Unknown POV Sneaking out of the Gregory's chambers was not part of my plan for today. Today was supposed to be spent in my mates arms, in Alpha Drake Kendricks arms. I have been trapped in that damn s*x dungeon for over 12 hours. Now I have to find Drake fast and click the mate bond in place. I stagger to the wall, bracing myself for a moment. Goddess, I hurt everywhere. I'm so sore in places I didn't even know existed let alone could feel something. It had started off as some much needed orgasms but now I understand why none of the omegas were willing for a repeat performance. Before last night, I would have bet every pair of shoes I own that Alpha Gregory was a simpering pathetic i***t, now I think he and his wolf are demented psychopaths hungry for dominance and pain. If I was human, I would have died last night. Goddess, he thinks I'm like him. That I am his true fated mate. I have to find Drake, NOW! I make my way to the guest suites, having found out earlier which room was his, I use all of my abilities to creep down the corridor. I need not have bothered, the noises coming from behind these doors are enough to make a nun jealous. Clearly this mating moon has been very successful for many of the visitors. Everywhere reeks of s*x. If I didn't know better l would think I had walked into a brothel. As I walk down towards my mates rooms it's a lot quieter. He is waiting for me. Then I hear something and freeze. Listening closer. My ear against the door. "Drake!" I hear on a cry, oh goddess no. He can't. "Drake!" I hear it again. He is in there with some shewolf slut. He was supposed to wait for me. This is when we are supposed to finally mate and he is supposed to put his pup in me and accept me as his luna. He was promised to me!! I continue to listen even though her cries repulse me and bring me close to vomiting. How could he do that with some w***e, he should be f*****g me! Loving me!! "c*m for me Angel" Angel!!! why is he calling her angel!! What spell has she put him under. Who is she. NO!! Absolutely NOT! He did not just call her MATE!!! That is MY title!!! ME!!!!!!! I am about to kick down the door when my wolf chimes in, informing me that someone is coming up the stairs. A lot of someone's actually. No No No. I can't just leave. This was my chance. I scurry down the corridor. Hiding in a darkened alcove. Watching without being seen. Warriors!? What are they doing here? Are we under attack? Wait.... these are not our warriors. I am.... familiar with our warriors and I don't know any of these men. There is a woman as well, she is not built like the others. They are all big and gruff and.... handsome. Why couldn't I be in there pack. I wonder who they are. They hardly make a sound as they move as one, protecting the woman in the middle and ending up, at Drakes door?? Are they attacking my mate? Or perhaps they want the slut? Then stand perfectly still at his door, not speaking, just waiting. They seem frozen, minutes later still there, waiting. I don't understand. Then suddenly the female steps forward, straight into the suite with one of the warriors and the rest go in the suit next door. That must be his betas room. What am I to do about all this? They have broken the rules of invitation on to foreign pack lands, only a maximum of 4 pack are allowed and none to be warriors. This is a massive violation. I want them in trouble but what I really want is rid of the imposter. It's one thing for her to be just a free use shewolf that is rolled out at these gatherings to be entertainment and distraction. It's another for him to be her mate. That title is sacred among wolves. She must have bewitched him. That's the only possibility. Our union was foretold when we were still pups and when news spread that he was finally coming here, and on the mating moon, I knew it was because he was finally ready to unite us together as Alpha and Luna. She has used very strong magic to bewitch him like this. I must get rid of her and save him, or our future, our pups, will be in danger of never existing. I need to speak with Elder Wainright, she is the authority on witchcraft for the pack. She will know what to do. I creep from my alcove, promising my mate I will return for him soon, and sneak down the other corridor and down the omega stairs. I have to hurry.
