The Perfect Luna

Riannon gave her husband a very cold stare but he did not seem to notice how
everybody around them became quiet once again.
“Brayden,” she said without a trace of emotion in her voice, “Let’s talk about it at
home. I have a few people I still have to talk to.”
She turned to leave, but he grabbed her arm to stop her and she had to turn and
face him. In all honesty, Riannon did not want to make an ugly scene. But she
was annoyed with him beyond belief. What was he even thinking?!
“I think you already talked to enough people tonight,” he clenched his fingers
tighter around her slim arm and if Onyx was there, she would let her take control
for a few moments and show him her Alpha force. But now she had to be more
careful since she was alone. She knew very well that now she was in a position
to only use her witts.
“And what is the problem there exactly?” she gave him her best and fakest smile,
“You need to take care of your wolf and for that, you need to give that poor girl a
good time here tonight.” Ria gestured at Roxy who stood right behind her
husband with a perplexed face. “And in the meantime, I need to take care of our
pack since you are busy. And for that, I need to actually talk to people, Brayden,
build relations and so on.”
“Is that what you’ve been doing? Building relations?” he gritted through his teeth,
“How come you are only doing it with men when you could talk to all those
Lunas?”
“The Lunas are already on my side, trust me,” Ria smirked, “But men require to
get to know me better. Besides, what if I manage to meet my mate here too?
Imagine how great our pack would be when both our wolves suddenly get super
strong thanks to that. Wouldn’t that be amazing?”
His grasp on her became so strong that she knew there would be bruisers. Not
that she cared. It was satisfying.

She heard a few laughs here and there as people that gathered around them
appreciated her joke.
But Brayden did not. He was always the superstar of every event. And this was
exactly how he was counting to be perceived at this event. He already had the
best wife and Luna there could be. But now he also found a mate who he took
into his pack. Amate that was sure to become his mistress over time, he only
held back thanks to his respect for Riannon. But it was simply a question of time.
He was sure that he could have it all and today’s ball was supposed to be proof
of that would slap his back in approval. Wasn’t it every man’s dream to have two
perfect women?
Riannon was perfection... She was the rare girl that had everything and he knew
that she would be his Luna the first moment he saw her. She was a true beauty
with her silky skin and shiny blonde hair that was always falling in perfect waves
down her shoulders. She had the perfect fit body which was neither too thin and
nor too muscly, with soft curls in all the right places. But her looks weren’t the
best part of her. She was clever. And funny. And calculating when it was needed.
But on top of that, she was kind and sincere towards the people she cared about.
Her blue eyes seemed to look right through you and sometimes Brayden
believed that she knew what everyone around her was thinking about. She fell in
love with her almost instantly and managed to get her attention. They dated for
years at school and married almost after they graduated. They were always in
perfect sync when they ruled their pack, she never failed him and he gave her
everything that a Luna like her should have.
When he met Roxanne, he wanted to reject her almost instantly. But... he
couldn’t.
Everything happened so fast when he was visiting one of the neighbour packs.
She was running out of the woods when he was talking to the Alpha with a few
wolves chasing her. He froze at the sight, realising that she was his mate. He
didn’t think that he would be able to find her... He looked. He wanted to know

what it was like but he was also in love with Riannon and decided to abandon the
idea for her when they married and he marked his wife.
And now there she was... That pitiful girl who was so tiny. And vulnerable. And
had absolutely no one to protect her. He opened his mouth to say the words but
she fainted in front of him and he couldn’t do anything. He found a place for her
outside his pack and kept it a secret. No one knew except for his Beta Ash. He
was visiting the girl every day to keep a check on her healing. It took her a while
since she was an omega. And he couldn’t reject her before she got well since he
was afraid she might die... But a few weeks passed and he still wasn’t able to
break their bond. The way she looked at him, the way she behaved... Everything
was so different from Riannon. And it was enticing.
Ria never needed his help much. She was his partner, she never relied on him.
Sometimes it even felt as if she was the Alpha in their relationship.
And he loved that.
But sometimes... It was too much.
It was hard to keep up with her.
While with Roxy it was always so easy. Simple things made her laugh, she was
grateful she was... dependent. Without him, she was afraid to even take a step.
He liked the way she looked at him, he liked how weak and fragile she was, his
instincts were heightened next to her with the constant desire to protect her. So
that was why he couldn’t keep her outside of his pack anymore. It wasn’t safe.
And that was why he couldn’t reject her when Riannon demanded it and Roxy fell
to his knees. He wasn’t that cruel. He couldn’t do that to the little omega.
But after some thinking, he was sure that there was a way for them all to be
together. His mate didn’t have to be his wife or let alone Luna. She could just
stay in his pack and live a comfortable life, satisfying his wolf when it was
needed. And Riannon could still remain his queen. Their relationship could go

through anything. She wouldn’t be happy at first, of course, but in the end, she
would make the required adjustments for the sake of the pack. The rational side
of her would win. She could deal with anything and still do it with dignity.
That was why he was shocked when he saw her today. He thought that she
would spend a quiet evening with her friends here. But that dress... and that
behaviour were not what he expected at all!
She seemed so different now and when she went upstairs to meet the Lycan
King he almost lost it.
But it was when she came back with him and they danced that he couldn’t bear it
any longer. It felt as if every man in this room wanted his wife! And although they
always did, it was the first time that they were also ready to act on it. And... she
did not stop them.
Now she was giving him the coldest stare that he ever received from her, with a
crooked smile to top it off. As if she was daring him in front of everyone. The old
Riannon would never do that in public! Was a person able to change so fast? Or
maybe he just didn’t know his wife to begin with...
“Are you drunk?” he wanted to put a stop to it and he knew that the only way to
do that was to trample her pride, “I thought you were better than this and
accepted Roxy as a part of our pack.”
Something changed in her eyes. The cold glare changed to the death stare in an
instant.
His lips almost trembled at that so he had to clench them so hard that they
formed a thin white line.
“Is that the best you could come up with?” she arched her brow, “How about we
just do what we came here to do in the first place? Take your hands off me. You
are not even my

His fingers unclenched as he watched the reaction of people around them. What
was he to do now?
“Right,” Ash appeared out of nowhere and stepped right behind Riannon, “I am
the said partner. How about I take it from here?”
She seemed slightly annoyed with him too and it brought Brayden relief as his
Beta took her hand and led her away to the dancefloor.
“Alpha Brayden?” Roxy called his name and he turned to see his mate with her
eyes filled with tears. Guilt washed over him as he realised that he neglected her
completely. Yet his own gaze kept returning to his Luna who was now dancing
and talking to his Beta.
He couldn’t help but feel that the evening was ruined. But everyone was watching
and he had to keep his face.
“How about some drinks?” he asked the almost crying redhead who clung to his
hand and a wide smile immediately bloomed at her face.
Yes, Roxy was so easy to please...
Ash wasn’t leaving her alone and it was extremely hard to talk to the other alphas
in the room. The plan had backfired a bit, yet Ria found herself smiling every time
she thought of her dance with the Lycan King.
“We have to leave now,” the Beta leaned lower and whispered into her ear.
“What?” she looked at him in shock, “Why? It’s too early.”
“Alpha orders,” was all that Ash answered and she pursed her lips, looking at her
husband drinking cocktails with Roxanne at the distance. When did he even
manage to mind link his right hand?
But she had enough of ugly scenes for one night and it was hard to make any
progress with him glued to her. She would have other opportunities and she

already made her statement today.
“All right,” she sighed, following him out of the room and to the parking lot.
She noticed that he wasn’t to where the limos were parked and tensed at once.
But the Beta clicked the button and one of the huge Range Rovers nearby
blinked.
“We’ll take the car others used,” the guy smiled at her, taking off his blazer. And
to her surprise, he wrapped it around her shoulders without asking permission.
