Two times rejected Luna, the desire of all Alphas - Chapter 369

Chapter 369: Chapter 369 – Can Your Powers Work in the Rain?
Alpha Lawn and Luna Alma arrived at the pack house, drenched from the rain. Raven was waiting with a flask and a small bowl containing herbs.

Seeing Alpha Lawn carrying Luna Alma in his arms, she smiled profoundly. It was beautiful, something she had never seen with her own parents.

“Raven, you’re still awake?” Alpha Lawn asked as they reached the entrance.

Raven smiled. “I had to give you this.”

With Luna Alma in his arms, Raven opened the door for him but waited at the entrance until Alpha Lawna had placed Luna Alma in the shower room before returning to her.

“Why are you standing there? You should come in.”

Raven obeyed and approached him, beginning to explain clearly.

“Alpha, please let Luna Alma drink and apply this on her skin. This should be the last one, and from tomorrow, she will no longer need it.”

Alpha Lawna was grateful. His little wolf had recovered faster than expected, thanks to the moon grass Raven used.

“Thank you very much.”

“Goodnight,” Raven said and left, just as Luna Fernanda and Spartan arrived, equally drenched. After a few exchanges with Raven, they each went to their rooms.

Burke had not returned, but the storm was heavy, and the pack house was quiet. Even the maids had retired to bed, as had Alice.

Raven was ready to go home, so she called her brother to come pick her up. As they were talking on the phone, Burke came in.

“I hope you aren’t calling your brother. I will take you home.”

He went to get an umbrella for her, but none for himself. He was already drenched.

Burke did not reach his former home, now Raven and her brother’s home, when a mindlink zapped through his mind.

It was Alpha Denzel. ‘Get me ten warriors and come with them to the cottage.’

Luna Valerie and Ashley had discovered the exact location where they suspected Orion had entered the pack.

“Do you know where the tunnel goes? Should I go check?” Ashley asked, about to slide inside when Valerie stopped her.

“Wait.” Ashley paused and stared at her, simultaneously wiping the rain from her face.

Valerie looked at the amount of water coming out of the tunnel. “It could be flooded, and no one knows we are here.”

“So mindlink Denzel and tell him,” Ashley suggested, Valerie revealed,

“I disconnected his mindlink because he might stop me.”

Ashley pursed her lips. They were already drenched, so she did not care about going through a flooded tunnel, as long as it yielded results.

“Let’s leave a clue, just in case we are not able to make it back on time.”

Before Ashley could ask what kind of clue Valerie meant, the latter tore the hem of her dress and tied it to a tree. Ashley did the same, just in case Valerie’s fabric was not visible.

“Great. I will go in now,” Ashley volunteered, but Valerie refused. “It’s my pack. Let me face whatever danger is in there.”

About to slide inside, they heard footsteps through the rushing waters. “Let’s hide,” Valerie said, looking around for a safe place when a familiar voice spoke from a distance.

“No need to hide.”

Valerie turned around and forced a smile, knowing that her plans were ruined. “Denzel, what are you doing here?”

Alpha Denzel pulled her into his arms. “Why did you disconnect the mindlink? I was so worried.” His voice was so soft, guilt welled up in Valerie’s heart. She hadn’t thought about his feelings when she did that.

“I’m very sorry. We were trying to locate the entrance Orion used to have access to the pack. He must have had some powers, but I doubt he could just appear and disappear here.”

A realization hit Alpha Denzel suddenly. “Your powers. Can they work in the rain?”

“Let me try,” Valerie said in assurance. Due to the sound of the heavy rain, the sound of raindrops was not heard, but all the water gathered around them, forming an arrow that pointed to the tunnel.

Valerie cursed herself internally for not trying to practice her powers in the rain, having wasted all this time.

“Alice. I wish I could practice with her. If I am able to stop her from getting injured, then we could use her powers to protect the pack.”

Alpha Denzel thought it was a laudable idea but cautioned her.

“Don’t forget that we are now fighting against spirits. If she uses her powers to protect the pack, then the invader would try to get a stronger one to match or overcome hers. It’s better for us to make them think that our defenses have been lowered. Let’s go.”

“What about the tunnel?” Valerie asked seriously, Alpha Denzel took a deep breath and explained.

“I already know where it leads. It’s a secret exit we use to escape in case we can’t win against the enemy, but for decades, I only used it to come to you as Ryker.”

Ashley was confused and asked, “Who is Ryker?”

Valerie chuckled and explained it, and Alpha Idris was filled with admiration for Alpha Denzel for having gone to such lengths to win the love of his life.

“So, are you going to leave it? Only Orion died, but his accomplices could inform their allies about it, endangering the pack.”

As much as Alpha Denzel wanted to keep it for emergencies, he had to agree with Valerie that it was very dangerous.

“You are right. I will call some of the warriors to come and help me seal it.”

Alpha Denzel quickly mindlinked Burke. It took close to thirty minutes before they arrived. “We have to fill the tunnel.”

The warriors dashed into the woods to find whatever useful things they could. The rain stopped, and by the time they were done sealing up the secret exit, it was already dawn. Exhausted, they retired to sleep as soon as their bodies touched the bed.

Hours later, Alpha Denzel’s phone rang, awakening him from his sleep. Checking the caller ID, it was Beta Hugo from the Yellow Stone pack.

Alpha Denzel panicked slightly, knowing that Hugo would not call him if there was no problem.

“Hello,” he answered the phone, but the news from the other end caused the phone to drop from his hand to the bed, his gaze darkening with anger as it surged through him.
