Chapter 7

Xander POV

I don’t know what’s going on with Xavier. He’s acting so strange lately. I frown as we head to the study and enter, only to see Regan sitting in front of my father and mother, The Alpha and lipna of the Blood Moon Park, along with her stepmother Heather and her father Johnathon, the Beta. The room was slightly crowded as we walked in, Xavier and I standing off to the side. Regan looked nervous, wringing both of her hands together, while I shut the door and turned around, raising a brow and regarding my parents with a questioning look. It was not often that they called for both of us together.

“Well?” I asked, “What did you need us for Alpha, Luna?”

My father gives a slow smile, but my mother looks uncomfortable. “It’s in relation to your birthday party,” he says and it’s all I can do not to let out a growl of frustration, while Xavier continues to stand there, perfectly composed.

“What about it?” my voice is cool.

“Every pack member is required to attend unless they are of omega blood” my mother interjects, as Regan stares at the desk. her dark hair hiding part of her face, while her stepmother just nods in agreement. “However, in Regan’s case..” she trails off.

Is she asking for permission for Regan to attend the party? I can feel anger coursing through my breast at the mere thought of it. After everything that she has put Isabelle through, there is no way that I’m granting her permission to attend. If I had my way, she wouldn’t even be allowed near the pack house, let alone on the grounds. I glared at my mother.

“If you’re asking permission for Regan to attend, the answer is no.” I said heatedly “I don’t want her there, the pack doesn’t want her there” I added, even as my brother cleared his throat.

“Xander, you’re being hasty” he began, but I shook my head and pointed at Regan who had finally lifted her eyes to look at me, her eyes wide with hurt.

“No. The pack will only resent her for attending. It will ruin the whole night. I understand that it’s usually for all pack members excluding omegas, but in this case, I think we need to make an exception” 1 growled back in frustration.

“If that is what you feel, then we will agree,” my mother said, glancing quickly at Regan who simply tightened her lips and said nothing. “However Johnathon has another request he would like to bring up with you, while Regan is here.”
