Alluring Luna

"You have been ignoring his calls for help, as it's no secret he needs help in this fight. As I said, this affects us all. They may not have their claws sunk into TL yet, but it would only be a matter of time before that happens, and all my Alpha was trying to do here tonight was gain your support."

"Whether it be intel on the entity as we have investigated and have acquired some names or whether it is men."

No one said a word. At this point, everybody's interest was piqued by what Rafael was saying. They all looked on, some wide-eyed at what was being said, while some were wide-eyed, anticipating Theo's move.

Rafael was on a roll. Once he started, it was like he could not stop, desperate to prevent his Alpha from being taken to the dungeons and hopeful that his pleas could at least get Theo to listen.

"And another thing, you know what? Zayne rescued countless humans who this same entity kidnapped to experiment on turning them into the creatures that hunt us."

"And do you know most of them chose to stay under HIS care after he rescued them, not returning to their lives? Why?"

"Would people willingly follow a man to their death if he was the scum of the earth, hmm?"

"Would those same humans rescued willingly give up their lives and choose to stay under his protection if he was a scum? Hmmmn? If he was such a bad guy, Hmmm?" Rafael tilted his head and arched a brow whenever he stretched the word 'hmmm.'

"What rubbish are you speaking about?" Theo countered. This was news to him, and a man like Theo would surely know if something like that was taking place, especially with his seat at the President's table.

This must be nonsense, but Rafael had it with this idiot as far as he was concerned. The evidence was in his hands.

Rafael simply pointed to the flash drive he gave Theo and handed the other to Aubrianne, "Luna, this copy is for you."

Rafael bowed to his soon-to-be Luna.

Rafael was not a fool. Even if Theo was hell-bent on being difficult, Aubrianne was the one who could get through to him, and she was the one they needed to convince.

Besides, if she comes on board, he feels like they could take on the world with the power his fierce Luna displayed.

He was never happier for his Alpha. Zayne deserved this. He felt like she was perfect for his Alpha. Tears almost came to his eyes because, for once, someone was fighting for his Alpha and not his Alpha fighting for everyone else.

He was so happy and loved Aubrianne just by her stance in front of his Alpha earlier.

Aubrianne snapped out of her stunned reaction to Rafael already accepting her, so much so that he was already addressing her as Luna before anything was made official.

While Zayne's comforting embrace just added to her secure feeling. Pride rose in her chest at the idea of being Zayne's Luna. However, let us not forget she is an Alpha in her own right.

"Well, shall we head to the entertainment room?" She asked her father. However, it really was not a question per se because she unclasped her mate's hands from around her waist and held onto one hand as she pulled him inside the mansion and headed straight for the entertainment room.

They would all watch what was on this flash drive together, damn it.

"Oh, and someone, get my mate a shirt," Aubrianne shouted over her shoulder to no one in particular, but she wanted her mate with his shirt on.

There were still some strange guests hanging around, and some of them were young females. Yes, possessiveness was raring its head.

She blushed as she recalled how it got destroyed in the first place, and her eyes slid to Zayne, who was already watching her amusement dancing in his eyes.

While Rafael was ranting, Leia and Aubrianne were chatting about their fantastic saint of a mate. That he was so fearless and strong and that he had such a kind heart.

And when they heard of his saving the humans, they wanted to jump him right then and there. She wished to comfort him and take away his fears and worries and let him know everything would be ok.

She wanted to let him know he had her in this fight. 'The savior.' Leia had purred and stretched her forefeet, butt sticking in the air.

She simply wished to wrap herself in his arms and melt into him.

Everyone out there was now eager to see what was on this flash drive, so they followed.

While five particular guests were not outside for the conversation, with their sneaking around for intel since the place went on lockdown, Ancil had found himself at listening distance.

And that was not good. Ancil feared for his boss if a man like Theo got involved because his reach was as high as the white house.

They were in sh!t water now. As the crew went into the house, he contacted his boss.

Meanwhile, Aubrianne led the crew hand in hand with her mate to the entertainment room. Theo instructed his head security to let those who came here tonight and did not stay at the manor go home.

He removed the lockdown, and now that his daughter was back home safely, the guest could be dispatched.

Alpha Zayne was so fascinated by his mate and still couldn't get over how she came to his defense. He must admit it felt good. It was different from when Mekhi would hover over him.

This was his mate; she was a mysterious Goddess in his eyes.

Soon enough, the crew entered the theater. The room's shape was a Golden Trapagon. Her father had boasted previously on their tour.

This was a cuboid with one short side longer than the other. It can be challenging to visualize, but it essentially creates a shape that funnels sound in your direction to reduce echo.

The room was dimly lit, with lights shooting down from the ceiling, off the walls, and shooting up from off the floor.

The carpet was a gorgeous patterned light gray, very plush and comfy.

A displeased Theo wanted to be done with this as quickly as possible.

He handed the flash drive that Rafael had thrust into the palm of his hand and directed one of his men to make the connection.

While everyone else gawked at the room except for Aubrianne and Ivan.

In here was, of course, fully decked out. Seating for over one hundred guests, however, the crew was less than thirty.

The walls were dark gray, and soon the two hundred and eighty inches in height by five hundred-in-width theater-style 6D screen came to life. There were added acoustic panels and bass traps for added sound control.

It was ginormous. Everyone had jumped at the surrounding sounds except for Theo and Ivan.

An L-shaped bar lined a good portion of the wall on the right of the entrance, and next to it was the snack station.

They had found their seat on one of the curved rows of reclining gray leather chairs, with purple neon strips highlighting the edges of the comfy plush seating.

It outlined the chair's shape, the rectangle shape of the backrest, and the space where one can rest their drink and eat.

And that same strip ran down the leg of the space where one could rest their eats and drinks on.

The space between rows is about thirty-five inches. A tall person can be comfortable.

Zayne, being led by Aubrianne, had looked around in amazement but was brought back to the present when they sat in complete oneness.

Aubrianne had simply stepped aside, letting him sit, and she quickly sat with her back to him as he reached for her, pulling her flush against him possessively.

And Aubrianne and Leia loved it. They loved their mate's possessiveness and snuggled into his large, warm, firm chest. "I think I still smell that b1tch on you," Aubrianne poked his chest, raising her head to look up at her mate mischievously.

While he, in turn, looked down at her incredulously, but then the corner of his lips curled into a smile when he realized she was teasing him.

He slightly tickled her in response, "You little tease." He whispered throatily. Aubrianne almost leaped out of his lap at the tickling, and her pores stood at attention with the warmth of his breath on her skin.

And Zayne would not let her get an inch away from him with his quick reflexes and the need for her to be close.
