Our Luna, Our Mate Chapter 12 Ares POV

Rage.

pure

hot rage is all that could be described as I stormed into my room, my door slamming closed behind me as it did, my emotions running high especially with today's events as today. should have gone smoothly as Eros and I were supposed to leave for the Moon Walker Pack today. 'Relax' calls Zeus as he tries to help me relax knowing my rage was getting out of control. "NO! How can you be so relaxed when the b***h was just spouting nonsense about being our Luna. Then to make things worse she even tried to pick a fight with Seth, our Gamma!' I say to him, wanting to know how he could be so calm while I wasn't. *Because getting worked up won't help us, we need to remain level headed and think clearly about things admits Zeus truthfully.

Knowing that he was right I sigh feeling my shoulders slump as I move to walk towards my closet, my eyes scanning the contents inside before moving to grab things that I would need for my trip. to the Moon Walker Pack including an outfit for the ball. Once securing a all the clothes that I would need, I move to grab my suitcase before heading for my bathroom and doing the exact same thing, making sure to only grab what I would need for the trip and nothing more.

"Ya" I said to him once everything was finally packed, my suitcase now resting on the bed before I

moved to face Eros.

"You sure? You didn't answer when I knocked" admits Eros as he arches an eye at me clearly not buying what I just said to him.

Sighing, I tell him. "I'm just angry as well as annoyed with everything. Annoyed that Lily had to come back home while angry over the fact that father and mother refuse to do anything about it.

"Aren't you though?"

to say was that your mother and I very much do care but you're both also 23 and the next in line to be Alpha. It's your responsibility to be able to handle the necessary things that get thrown your way, as your mother and I won't always be around to protect you and when that day comes we want to know that you'll be able to handle it, as well as protect your mate and child should you have

any threat that comes our way. No one touches our mate and lives"

I have tried reaching out to Lily's parents but neither seem to be answering which seems a little odd if you

ask, disbelief slowly

"It's
