What happened to her?

Daciana was stunned by Alpha Connor's sudden question. She stood there in his arm flustered without knowing what to say to him. Nothing can describe how red her cheeks are right now.

"I won't pressure you if you don't want to, can we go out now?" Alpha Connor asked changing the topic of which Daciana was grateful for.

He kept her in a tight spot by asking her that kind of question. Does he need her permission to give her his mark? He has been having her body just the way he wants without asking for her permission and now he is asking for her consent before marking her?

How is she supposed to respond to him without ending up embarrassing herself.

"Yes" she replied casually breathing out in sheer relief. Alpha Connor nodded his head and took a few steps back from her then stretched out his hand to her with a shrimpy smile on his face.

He watch her look away from his face to his hand as she hesitantly placed hers in his. The two walked out hand in hand. They could hear the gasps from the servants as they pass by. It is surprising to see the Alpha king holding Daciana's hand protectively as if he is afraid of letting go.

Seeing how this is turning out to be, it seems Alpha Connor doesn't hate the Luna anymore. They now know better than to mess with the Alpha king's mate, who is their irreplaceable Luna.

While Alpha Connor ignored them, Daciana was a bit tensed by their stares. As much as she likes the feeling she is getting from having her hand in Alpha Connor's, the stares does nothing but frighten her. Daciana hates so much attention, those she has been getting since she stepped in here is enough to last her for a lifetime.

Alpha Connor paused on noticing Daciana's hold tightened in his palm. He looked at her with a worried expression after seeing her lips trembling in fear.

"Are you okay?" He asked with concern lacing through his voice while Daciana nodded her head without looking at him. He followed her gaze until they landed on different pairs of eyes staring at them.

Alpha Connor glared hazardously at them, they needn't to be told before they began scurrying away.

"You are the Luna, you shouldn't be afraid of your subjects. Besides, you are right next to me, no one can hurt you" he assured slightly squeezing her hand and Daciana passed him a grateful smile.

It gladdens her heart to hear him refer to her as the Luna, Alpha Connor keeps doing things that makes her heart flutters all the time.

By the time they took a step forward, her cheeks were scarlet red. She has been blushing more often than required and she can't do anything to help it.

Just as she was about asking the Alpha king where they were heading to, Dolphus appeared in front of them.

"Alpha king" he called and inverted to Daciana.

"Good morning Luna" he greeted with a bow while Daciana gave him a smile.

"Did you inform district B about my visit?" Alpha Connor asked. Daciana's head snapped to them in confusion wondering what or where district B is. She has never heard of that until now.

"Yes Alpha king" Dolphus replied.

"Good, I will be going with the Luna. You can stay back and take care of the tower until I am back, everyone should be informed that I am now the new Alpha of dean's pack and so, it will be merged together under ocean pack" he informed Dolphus who looked taken aback.

He barely heard the things Alpha Connor said after telling him to stay back. This is the first time the Alpha king will be going out without him. He has never gone out with anyone except Dolphus and now, he wants to go to his father's tower with Daciana, the female he almost killed.

"Dolphus?" Alpha Connor called with a chuckle. Daciana was pacing out on him earlier. Now, it is Dolphus. Has he been saying things that will make them pace out on him?

"I am sorry Alpha king, I will do that now. Please return safely" Dolphus said and disappeared before Alpha Connor could say anything.

"Let's go" Alpha Connor said to Daciana who nodded her head in response as different unreciprocated questions inundated her mind. Why did the Alpha king take dean's pack? What about their Alpha? What is district B?

"I don't want you to go through the stress of walking in the forest, I will change my form and you can hop on my back so that we will get there faster" Alpha Connor enlightened her.

For some moment, Daciana thought that the Alpha king is going to sell her off to some people in a strange district B. She wondered if he has been nice to her just to sell her off. She was embedding fears into herself.

Shaking her head, she tried to get rid of those spooky thoughts over taking her mind. She needed to remind herself that Alpha Connor has changed for good, she assured herself that he wouldn't do that to her and that calmed her.

She trusts him not to hurt her again.

******

Alpha Connor dropped Daciana when they got to the dean's pack Alpha's tower and change back to his human form. She looked around like a lost puppy, confused since she doesn't know where they are.

"Welcome Alpha, we've been expecting you. Good morning Luna" the servants greeted on sighting the duo. It is quite astonishing how everyone tells that Daciana is the Luna whenever they set their eyes on her. Is the Alpha king's sent that strong on her? And why are they referring to them as Alpha and Luna?

Daciana is sure that they are not in ocean pack, are they in dean's pack?

Alpha Connor nodded his head at them as they paved way for both him and Daciana to head inside.

He had named this side district B as part of the ocean pack since there is a forest demarcating the two. He grabbed Daciana's hand and they both went inside the Alpha's chamber.

Alpha Connor doesn't know why he brought Daciana here, he just thought he should bring her with him.

"What will you like to take Alpha?" One of the maids asked while Alpha Connor waved his hand in the air.

"Do not bother, I will call for you when we need something" he replied dismissively and they all bowed their heads and left the room.

"This is my father's tower, I grew up here" he broke the silence the moment they were alone. Alpha Connor never opened up to anyone about his past but with Daciana, he felt the need to open up to her.

"You might not be aware of this but Luna Quinn is not my birth mother, she adopted me after she saw me almost dead in the forest with Dolphus tears bathing my chest. At that time, she was ruling the ocean pack" he added as he watch Daciana's stunned reaction.

That, she has never heard the story. If his father was the Alpha king then, he should be the successor. Why was he found in the forest? What happened to him?

Alpha Connor sat down on the chair and grabbed Daciana's waist, making her fall on his lap while facing him.

He wrapped his arms around her and placed his head on her chest.

"Back then, some groups of omegas were my father's underlings. Even with their ranks, it didn't matter to him. My father treated them like his brothers, he loved them more than he loved my brother and I. It came to a point where I was jealous of them as a child" Alpha Connor said with a small laughter, a laughter that held sadness in them.

Daciana was appalled by the revelation. Alpha Connor has a brother? Where is he? Why are they not together? Is his disappearance from the dean's pack related to omegas? Is the why he hates them?

She stared at him, she could see the conflicting look in his eyes. The kind of look she saw in his eyes when she was crying in pain from the injuries on her body. That look broke her heart, seeing him this way made her wish to be able to take the pain away.

"It was those same omegas that plotted against my father and wiped out my entire family, my parents and my younger brother because of greed. I barely managed to escape"

By the time he was done pouring his heart to her, Daciana was crying profusely. How can people be so heartless to bite the hand that fed them and they did that by wiping out an entire family?

Even if the Alpha king is not supposed to hate all the omegas because of some bad eggs among them, his reason for despising them is given. Her heart ache for him, he must have gone through a lot after witnessing the brutal death of his family.

"I am sorry, I am so sorry" she said and hugged him tightly. She didn't know what to say, she didn't know how well to comfort him but she felt grateful to him for opening up to her about his past.

"I do not know why you are apologizing" Alpha Connor replied with a chuckle. Seeing her acting like a baby eased his mind. He felt like a burden has been lifted off him after telling her about his biological parents.

"You must have gone through a lot my king, I am sorry you went through that all alone" Daciana said dizzily. She doesn't know why she is loosing her strength all of a sudden.

Daciana fought to stay still in Alpha Connor's arm but she couldn't when a scream escaped her mouth as she felt a pang in her stomach.

"Are you okay?" Alpha Connor panicked breaking away from the hug to look at her while Daciana shook her head.

Alpha Connor looked at her suddenly pale face that were almost closing and stood up with her in his arm. She was fine minutes ago, what happened to her?
