The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 369

Chapter 369

38 – Ben

“What exactly are you talking about?” I ask, my tone sharp with disbelief. It’s clear to me that a witch is behind these relentless attacks—drug dealers and assassins lurking in the shadows, striking at every opportunity. Yet, he speaks about it as if it’s some mundane topic we discuss daily.

“It seems there’s a conflict brewing among some of the local covens,” he replies calmly.

I lean forward, gripping the arms of my chair. “A conflict? What kind of dispute involves poisoning and murdering wolves?” My voice rises in frustration.

He shrugs slightly. “It’s not exactly a quarrel between covens themselves. From what I’ve gathered, there’s a growing demand for werewolf muscle as mercenaries. Witches, warlocks, fae, and vampires alike are all converging on the idea that if they can control us, they’ll have their own pack of loyal enforcers at their beck and call.”

I sit back, stunned, my mouth agape. What the hell? How could anyone even conceive of that? We’re not some new species to be toyed with; we’ve coexisted alongside these supernatural beings for centuries. It makes no sense at all.

“I was thinking the exact same thing,” he says with a small smile. Did I say that out loud? “Witches and werewolves share something unique—we both have human forms. Other supernatural creatures struggle to blend into the human world as seamlessly. I suspect that’s part of the reason. And while witches aren’t weak by any means, we have the advantage in strength, endurance, and pain tolerance. That’s what they’re after. If they can control us, they gain a powerful edge over other supernaturals.”

I rub my face, trying to process this. “Okay, but how does all of this relate to a dispute?”

He leans back, thoughtful. “The covens are split on the issue. Some want to coexist peacefully with us, maybe even collaborate, while others want total domination—complete control.”

“That makes more sense. But what about Elara and Junior? What’s their connection to all this chaos and danger they’ve been facing?”
