Chapter 28

I heard shuffling around my room, I closed my eyes shut hoping that whoever it was would eventually leave. It never happened.

I heard the curtains open and I covered my head with the duvet. It could be Marge that would do something like this, why is she always trying to get me up early in the morning.

I felt her trying to drag the duvet off my body, which made me held it tighter above my head. "Get up Alexa, you need to have breakfast." She says, tugging at the duvet a bit harder than before.

I let out a noise to show my frustration, instead she asked: "why are you sounding like a wounded animal?"

I rolled my eyes, and relinquish the duvet for her to drag, the sun rays hit my eyes from the window and squinted at how bright it was.

"Come on, breakfast is ready and Kurt is at the dining table waiting for you," she said folding the duvet into four parts and placing it on the bed.

I begrudgingly stood up, rubbing my eyes and letting out a yawn. I got out of my room and head downstairs. I walked to the dinning room and there Kurt was hands folded underneath his chin as if in deep thought.

His eyes went up to look at me and he shot me a smile, which took me a back, but I refused to show my surprised expression.

"Good morning my amazing Luna," he said as soon as I took my sit next to him.

I blinked my eyes multiple times, and tilted my head in confusion, wondering if I heard what he said well.

Did he just call me his Luna? Me? His Luna?

I pinched myself in my thigh just to make sure that I wasn't still dreaming.

"Um, good morning." I said in a very awkward way.

He clapped his hands and in came the maids, bringing mouth watering food. A plate of pancakes loaded with syrup falling off the sides.

I took the spoon and started eating, stuffing my mouth with each bite.

I heard a small laugh from Kurt, and I stopped eating fast and began eating much slower than before.

He applied butter on his toast, and took a bite out of it, then he took a sip of his tea.

The breakfast was a very quiet one, peaceful even. It was almost as if we were a married couple, suddenly I felt a blush creep up to my cheeks and I used my hair to cover my face.

"Alexa do you think that I am a terrible leader?" He asked suddenly which made me look up at him and then suddenly the conversation from those two women played in my memory.

"Kurt, you are not a terrible leader. You took up the mantle post of being the Alpha of this pack at a very young age. If they think it's easy they should also try and apply for the role of being Alpha." I said trying my best to sound positive.

"You know the death of my father really left a huge hole in my heart. I just feel lost right now."

I stretched out my hand to touch his, trying to tell him that everything is going to be alright.

"Anyways, let's just put that aside, I have news. Tomorrow is my birthday."

"Oh my, happy birthday in advance," I said sounding genuinely happy.

"Thank you, I was thinking that we could I don't know, go on a date?" He said not sounding so sure.

The thought of me and him ever going on date wasn't something I expected him to suddenly ask. Before I could give my answer, someone burst through the front door and me and Kurt both stood at alert.

They came inside the dining room, and look around the room in a frenzy, then their eyes landed on Kurt.

"There... Is... A... War... About... Too... Happen... Council of... Elders... Need... Your... Presence." The person said between short breaths of air.

I looked from the person that busted into our dinning room and look at Kurt, trying to gauge his reaction, but I got nothing. His hand was only folded up into a fist, and he walked towards the man, pick him up and left to see the council of elders.

I sat back down on the chair, and put my hands on forehead. War? Of all the things that is going to happen, why does it have to be a war?

****
It was almost 6pm and Kurt had still not return from the meeting with council of elders, panic was settling in. I was pacing around the room, scared of whatever the outcome might be.

I folded my hands and say a silent prayer. Then the front door open and in came Kurt looking displeased.

I walked up to him about to ask him what happened, when he shot me a death glare which made me back away from him.

He stood there for while, rubbing his hands on his face. Then let out a shout and kick a stool that was sitting in the corner to the ground.

I watched in fear, after it looks like he had calm down, I decided to ask him what's wrong.

"Dark night pack have decided to wage a war against us."

The name of the pack sounded familiar, then it occured to me that it was the same pack that hosted some few weeks ago in the big city.

"Wait, why? What happened? Why the sudden switch?"

"Well apparently news got out to them that the former Alpha of the pack died so apparently they decided to wage their dumb ass way at the 'right' time," he said putting air quotes on the word right.

"Isn't there a way for you people to talk it out?" I asked. He shook his head.

"They aren't planning on talking anything out, it just feels so frustrating that Alpha Raphael decided to do this shit at a very convenient time."

There hasn't been a time whereby this pack has ever gone to war, not even once. This would most definitely send the entire people in the pack to shock.

Kurt sat on the couch looking distressed than ever. I sat next to him, rubbing his back to calm him down and. This isn't going to be good.
