Luna On The Run – I Stole The Alpha’s Sons Chapter 54
My brows crease, but after checking the boys, I follow her out to find the customer from before sitting at one of the small tables. Three cups of coffee were placed on the table and a plate of scones and jam. I also noticed the open sign had been turned to closed and the blinds were now shut.
Taking my seat next to Sondra, I realize the man is impec cably dressed and looks more like a businessman. But that is not the only thing I notice, he is also a vampire.
“Elena, this Marco. He used to work with my husband,” Sondra tells me. I blink at her,I was yet to learn exactly what it was her husband did, yet we gathered he was some kind of mob boss.
Not just from the chop shop, but the secret bunkers be neath the house that stored enough weapons she could open a gun store, maybe several, also by the safes we had found, some she had forgotten about all loaded with cash.
Noleen even found a few kilos of cocaine. Sondra tried to tell us the bundles were casting sugar, but we weren’t stupid, and the odor was a dead giveaway, also the fact that she went and flushed the bags down the toilet.
“Hi Elena, I am Marco and Sondra here tells me you’re in need of registering your sons, and your pack,” I blink at him. My jaw drops, wondering how the heck she had this man in her pocket too. Sondra taps my chin, closing my mouth.
“He works for the supernatural council, Elena. He is here to help,”
“But I don’t have a pack.” I murmur confused.
The man shuffles through the paperwork I hadn’t noticed
on the edge of the table. “I have it listed here that there are more than ten women living on your lands.” he says, looking up at me.
“What lands, I don’t…” Sondra waves me off. “That we’ll discuss later, for now we need to get your pack registered, and the boys. You just need to give him the names.” Sondra says. The man watches us curiously.
“Sorry, Marco, I haven’t informed her yet of the deed and titles.” Sondra apologizes while I was trying to make sense of what is going on. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Leaning over to Sondra. “But the women,” I hiss, knowing they are wanted fugitives.
“I don’t think you are understanding, Elena. Marco here works for the supernatural council, we have looked into this for the past three days. We found loopholes we can exploit. One being a pack needs more than ten members, you have twenty-three. They just need an Alpha, and the woman agreed it should be you. As for the women’s rogue status. Once a pack is registered, any of their crimes are handled within the pack by their Alpha.”
“Which will be you.” Marco adds for her.
“But some are wanted for-” Marco holds his hand up. “I know exactly what their crimes are, all justified and self-de fense. What I need from you, is what name you will register under, and the name of your pack. The smaller details we can handle later.”

“But there are no females Alpha’s” I remind him.
“No law stating there can’t be, also you have a clean
record, you come from Alpha lineage. Have no warrants or debts outstanding. You are well within your rights to apply for a pack license.”
“I have no records? – at all?” I ask, a little shocked. Surely, Alpha Axton reported me for kidnapping or the very least theft?
“None that were made official, I have looked into this thoroughly, Elena.”
“So why are you helping us?” I ask, still dumbfounded. Marco smirks, glancing at Sondra.
“Sondra is my sister-in-law.” he tells me, I sit back in my
chair.
“Wait, Floyd was a vampire?” I ask. My head was spinning.
“No, I was turned. Although I did try to convince my brother and Sondra here, but they value their humanity,” he chuckles and Sondra swats at his arm. The man barely looked a day over thirty, and Floyd was ancient.
“So, your new name?” I think for a few seconds before choosing my mother’s maiden name.
“Bardot, my mother’s maiden name,” he smiles and Son dra grins. “Elena Bardot it is then,”
Marco jots down the name, handing me multiple forms for me to sign, so I can register the boys, I left the father blank. Not needing the extra headache of Axton being able to find us when he handed me the last document.
“Pack title and registration,” I glance down at it. “May I?”

Sondra asks and I slide the paper to her. I watch as she scrib ble’s a name for the pack and smile as I read it.
‘Elysian Fortuna Moonlight Pack’ reaching for the pen, I sign my name beneath it. We had created our own piece of Paradise, and Fortuna is a second chance and moonlight, we are children of the Moon Goddess, so it seems fitting.
Our paradise of second chances.
Congratulations Alpha Elena Bardot of Elysian Fortunal Moonlight Pack,” Marco smiles, taking the papers from me.
After Marco leaves, and we bid our farewells, I turn to Sondra, placing my hands on my hips wanting answers. Son dra nods her head slowly. “Okay, Okay, take a seat. My legs aren’t what they used to be, and you’re going to want to sit down,” she tells me. Hesitantly, I move back toward the table, sitting across from her. Yet her next words nearly make me choke.
“I’m dying, Elena. I have terminal cancer. I found out a week before Floyd passed.” She tells me.
“No,” I shake my head, refusing to believe her. She can’t be dying. It wasn’t fair, not after everything she has done to help us. Sondra leans over, grabbing my hand.
“It’s okay dear. But I have one request.” she tells me while I try to wrap my head around the news she just told me. My stomach sinks like a rock plunged into its depths. Blinking back tears, I nod, waiting to hear her request.
“Don’t tell the women, I don’t want to spend the last of my days watching them worry. I just want to watch them flourish. Not spend the rest of my days with them upset over some

thing they can’t change. But all your lives, that is something I can change. Which is why I had the deeds and titles changed over to you.” I chew my lip to stop it quivering, she has already given so much, and I go to tell her that when she raises a hand to stop me.
“Over the last couple of weeks, one thing I have noticed, is you’re more of an Alpha than any man I have ever met. An Al pha I would be glad to submit to if I were one of your pack members. This shop, the ranch, it’s all I have left of this life, yet yours is just beginning, so is theirs, so take it. Make some thing of it if not for you but for your pack.”
