#2 Chapter 40
Chapter 40.
The luna got to Carl’s chamber with her maids behind her, “Is he in?” She asked the guards outside, who were guiding the door.
“Yes, my luna.” They chorused with a bow as they allowed the luna to enter while the maids waited behind.
“Hey.” She called unto him as she got closer to were he was standing, looking out of the window.
“Mother.” Carl muttered as he gently turned to his mother.
“How are you?” She asked, noticing the awkwardness between them.
“I’m fine mother.” He gently held her hands, “I was thinking that I will go to your chamber if I wait for throughout today and you don’t come to mine.” He spook softly.
The luna chuckled faintly, “And why is that? Why will you go there?”
“I am guilty, I treated you so unfair, you are my mother,” Carl caressed her cheek as she smiled, “I should have known that you are more experienced than me, I should have listened to you, I should not have yelled at you, I should have known that you only want the best for me, just the way all good mothers will do to their child. I swear mother, you are right! You have rightly said that I will regret it and now mother, I’m regretting everything!” Carl growled in regret.
“Hey, hey calm down okay. Everything happened for a reason.” The luna said.
Carl left her hands, he started pacing around as he ruffled his hair. “Everything happened for a reason for sure mother but because of my stupidity, Carlton and I lost our mate, our true mate mother! Carlton is angry, saying that it is my fault which of course it is!”
The luna watched him closely before asking, “Why did you healed the girl?” She gently sat down on his bed, patting a space by her side for Carl to sat down.
“It wasn’t me who saved her, Carlton was.” He gently sat down and laid his head on the luna’s shoulder with a sigh escaping from his lips.
“I don’t get you, you can prevent Carlton from doing things right, a perfect example was when you rejected Luna, I’m sure Carlton won’t agree with you and he would have threatened to take over your body which you prevented.” The luna pointed out.
“You are right mother but I don’t know why I allowed him to saved her, I just found myself allowing him to take over my body and he was ready to fight for her, he was ready to mark her.”
“Mark her? Even as she was pregnant with another person’s child?” The luna asked, she have never heard of something like that in her life. “Like what is happening? You planned on marking a pregnant weak wolf?” She chuckled, finding it funny.
“We weren’t thinking, we just wanted our mate back to ourselves.” Carl said.
“And what did you planned on doing to the pup?” The luna asked, still surprised.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“I don’t know, I am sure we will come up with something before she gives birth to them.” He answered, shrugging his shoulder.
“Why did you stopped then? Why didn’t you marked her as you have planned? Why didn’t you fight your father for her? Why did you allowed her to go?”
The luna didn’t asked the questions because she really wanted a pregnant omega for her son, she asked because she was thinking that Carl was crazy and senseless to thought of marking Luna, when she was already another wolf’s pregnant mate.
Carl gently removed his head from his mother’s shoulder, he laid-back on his bed, fixing his glare on the ceiling. “I stopped him because she was pregnant with more than one pup.”
“I don’t understand you son, if she was pregnant with more pups than you imagine, then all you have to do was to do whatever you planned to do at first to the pup.” The luna said, trying to make Carl to reason with her.
“That’s not it mother, I actually started thinking at that moment and I realized that we lost her, and that we don’t just lose her but we have lost her a very long time ago, since I rejected her.” Carl said sadly, tearing his glare away from the ceiling to face his mother.
“Why did you rejected her then? You should have calm down and think before doing things like that, that was why I think you are not ready to be the alpha, she is pregnant because you rejected her.”
“I rejected her because she was weak, she has no ability, not even the slightest. I thought that she will want my protection every time and I can’t be available every time, I thought that she will get our pups killed if war arises, because I would be busy trying to safe the park, leaving her behind with my pups and she won’t be able to safe them.”
The luna busted into laugher, “That is hilarious!” She said between her laugher.
“I’m not joking mother, neither is this funny!” Carl snapped, surprised that his mother was laughing at him.
“Have anyone ever told you that you are crazy son?” She asked when her laugher died down.
“I would have snap the person’s head off his neck!”
“Then why don’t you start it with me? You are crazy! You are just looking for an excuse to prevent yourself from mating with the weak girl.”
“Now you caught me mother, you should leave me alone, I’m already regretting everything, please don’t add more to it.” He turned his back to his mother, feeling deep regret, “If only I can turn back the time.”
“I’m not trying to make you to regret more son. This is what I wanted to prevent when I was fighting with you that day, but you were too blinded by your so called love to listen to me. Where is your lover by the way, are you suppose to be thinking of another girl when your lover is hale and heathy?” Sounds of mockery can be detected from the luna’s words as she spoke.
“Carlton didn’t like Amelia, he wants the weak girl.” Carl said.
The luna busted into laugher again, “Carlton or you? I’m sure Carlton does not like Amelia from the start but you kept her for yourself, not caring about what Carlton thinks neither did you thought of his feelings. So, I don’t know when you started thinking of Carlton’s decision.”
“Okay, fine mother! I don’t like Amelia again, or wait, I like her but I don’t want her again, I want our mate now but my stupidity made us to lose her and I’m sorry!” He was frustrated.
“Your sorry wouldn’t do anything young man! You better start liking Amelia because Luna is gone and is never coming back here! She was banished!”
“That’s impossible!” Carl spanked up from his bed.
“But that’s the truth!”
