The Perfect Luna
Chapter 4: Royal Confrontation
“Bold, aren’t we?” the Beta chuckled and Ria didn’t know what to think. “Do you think that the King will do whatever I tell him?”
“I hope he respects you enough to do you a little favour,” she bit her lip. She was walking on thin ice here and was aware of that.
But she had no choice either.
“Fine,” the man grunted softly and for the first time Ria wondered what he was doing, “Crystle, dear, that’s enough of sucking. I need to go.”
Then he groaned again and Riannon’s ears turned red with embarrassment. Was he in bed with someone? Why did he pick up then?!
There were sounds of rustling and a female voice, “See you tonight, Beta.” And then sounds of steps.
“Just so that you know,” the Beta spoke again, “I am sacrificing a lot right now to pay you back. So, after you talk to him, Consider us done.”
“Of course,” Ria cleared her throat, “I appreciate your… sacrifice.”
He chucked and then she heard a sound of a creaking door.
“Hey, G. I need you to speak to someone,” the sounds were muffled but she could still understand everything.
“Not interested,” the other man growled and now Riannon was very afraid. She thought if the king was… busy as well. He sure wouldn’t sacrifice his pleasure time for her.
“I am not trying to set you up with anyone,” the Beta burst out laughing, “It’s just some werewolf Luna. I owe her one, okay?”
“Not interested,” was the reply and Ria’s heart sunk. This was it. It was her best chance… In her past life, she called Beta Reid as well. Later in the timeline of events. But he never picked up. Lycans had some kind of trouble in their lands too by the end of the year. He was probably too busy by the time she gained the courage to call. She called him again and again until the calls stopped coming through, meaning that he probably blocked her.
“Give her 5 minutes,” from the sounds of it, the man shoved the phone into his king’s hands. Another growl emerged and Ria was about to give up. But then she heard a resounding metallic voice.
“Hello, Alpha Gideon speaking,” the man said and she sucked in a breath. He didn’t even use his title.
Was that really the Lycan King?
“Hello, your majesty,” she decided to address him formally anyway, “ My name is Riannon Thorn. I am the Luna of the Silver River pack.”
