The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 414

Chapter 414

71 – Ben

“Jason, can you stay close? Stick with Owen and Damon,” I instructed, my voice steady but urgent.

“What’s your plan?” he asked, eyes narrowing with concern.

“I’m not entirely sure yet. The past few days have been unbearable—worse than anything I’ve faced before. Watching Junior suffer, knowing she’s isolating herself on purpose… it’s tearing me apart. My wolf refuses to let me push her away, and I’m pretty sure hers feels the same. There has to be more to this than just her not wanting a man to take her Alpha position. But she won’t talk to me for more than five minutes at a time.” I sighed heavily, frustration gnawing at me.

“So, what? You’re thinking of locking her up until she gives in?” Jason’s tone was half teasing, half serious.

“At this point, if that’s what it takes, then yes.” I chuckled softly, trying to lighten the mood.

“There it is again!” Jason murmured inside my mind.

“What is?” I asked, glancing at him.

“That scent I was chasing when we first arrived. I caught it again just now.”

“Go back around. Take Owen and Damon with you. Maybe there’s something else there we haven’t uncovered yet. It’s been months, but if you’re still picking up that scent, it could be one of the casters setting the Shadow Markers.”

“And what about you and Elara? I don’t exactly trust either of you to stay out of trouble.”

“We’ll be fine. Just keep checking in regularly.”

I felt his presence pull away from us. He had to shift to communicate with Owen and Damon, but hopefully, they’d uncover something useful while I worked on my own problem.

“Elara, hey, slow down! We’re tracking, not running across the entire territory,” I called out, quickening my pace to catch up and move ahead of her. She seemed to be ignoring me completely.

“Elara! Stop!” I stepped in front of her abruptly, forcing her to stumble into me. My wolf purred at the contact, a thrill running through me. The tingling sensation spread across his body, making his fur stand on end. It was fleeting but intoxicating. Every time I touched her, the feeling grew stronger. I wanted this—wanted her. Now, I had to find a way to make her want me too.
