Litas our Luna?

His Delta was the most pack–oriented of them all. He was always working on ways to strengthen them as a unit. Of course, he would have found the attack on his Luna to be particularly infuriating. It was behavior Cole should have felt grateful for and want to foster. But he’d only snapped at him and debased him. How had one woman turned his calm exterior into this overnight?

Cole rubbed the back of his neck. “I appreciate your desire to avenge your Luna, Andres. It is admirable, and it honors this pack. But I plan to reject her as soon as she wakes up, so she won’t be your Luna much longer. And as far as who it was-

“It was her abusive ex–boyfriend, some asshole named Brian!” Stace huffed, again, then went back to staring at the floor, “Cole caught his scent in the apartment building. He’s a wolf. Lives right down the hall from her. I can’t even imagine…” The growls from around the room were almost immediate.

“But we can’t kill him,” Cole cut in, looking at Lita again before he amended his statement. “Not until I have more information about him. This pack doesn’t need unnecessary enemies, alright? We stay out of wolf politics for a reason. We stay on the outskirts of wolf life for a reason.” He stressed the last word, so they might all remember that none of them wanted to get mixed back up in that vicious world.

“What sack of shit wolf beats up a human woman?!” Alex growled.

“Well, a few minutes ago, you thought it was me,” Cole grumbled.

“And if you HAD done it, you would’ve been a sack of shit too…” They smirked at each other, the silent words and I would have deposed you for it, passed between them.

“Now you see why I was so upset earlier, he’s a fraction of a real man, let alone a real wolf. But we can’t settle this score until we know what we’re dealing with, understood?” Cole made eye contact with everyone. They all nodded just as the doctor burst through the door in a hurry. He threw a gruff greeting out and then immediately went to Lita and began taking her vitals.

“You’re all excused except for Alex,” Cole said with a hard edge to his voice, “And one last thing before you go, none of you will tell Lita she’s my mate.”
