Alpha’s Surrogate Chapter 51
Alpha’s Surrogate Chapter 51
51. The Luna is pregnant!
The number of rumors and whispers among the members of the Sirius Bright Pack grew, but they were
all favorable. The younger Alpha and his Luna had safely returned to the pack, which had brought a
huge sigh of relief and a bright grin on everyone’s faces. Word of the assault that had transpired to
Kiara on the vampire’s territory had traveled across the pack like wildfire, and everyone was anxiously
anticipating her safe return.
“The Alpha and Luna have arrived!” Using her hawk-like eyes, Lena had noticed the two of them and
yelled loudly. Drawing everyone’s attention to Xavier and Kiara, who had only juste inside the
entrance of the pack house. At the same time, she ran inside to call for the Beta female.
“Kiara!” Adira quickly ced the flower vase she had been holding aside and hurried over to her sister,
pulling her into a tight hug. Earlier that morning, Adira and Zander had returned to the pack. The
second inmand, who had been in charge of the pack in the absence of the Alphas, had greeted
Zander with a big bear hug. He hadn’t met him as his Beta, he had greeted him as a buddy who had
been afraid of losing his best friend. When Gamma Tyler met the younger Alpha, he had been in the
same boat. Fortunately, the elder Stephen had been kept in the dark concerning anything to do with
their disappearance.
Every member of the pack had been worried about the two of them. They hadn’t gotten any sleep the
night before as they kept searching for them until they had received a mind-link from the Alpha telling
them to go home, that they would be there soon. They had been relieved to see Zander and Adira
return safely, and they were pleased to learn that the Luna had epted their Alpha wholeheartedly
and bestowed her trust and the mate bond onto him. They were now mated and marked!
Before Zander and Adira had the chance to ept their delight and well wishes, they learned of the
attack that the elder Alpha and his mate had suffered while visiting the vampire enve. The younger
twin had called his brother right away, only to discover that they were already on their way back to the
pack. Xavier had also told him that they were safe. Adira had been waiting for news of her sister with
bated breath.
“Adira, I’m okay. Please don’t worry yourself needlessly. See I am alive,” Pulling away from her sibling,
the young she-wolf chuckled, earning an angry re from Adira. Kiara was fully aware that her sister
had been ming herself for failing to take care of her sibling like she usually did back in the Ardara
Moon Pack, but the situation had been beyond her control this time.
“Are you sure you are not hurt? I mean I heard…”
“I swear I’m alright,” Kiara assured her, cing her hand on her shoulder.
“What about you, though? I heard the pack had been attacked…” The young Luna was at lost words
when she noticed her older sister’s neck.
“Oh, Goddess! I can’t believe it!!” Kiara covered her mouth with both of her hands. Her choctey eyes
widened in surprise as she observed her sister’s flushed cheeks. It was enough to convince her that
what she was seeing wasn’t a trick of the mind. Adira who had decided to never fall in love or find her
mate, was now mated and marked by her mate?
“You epted Alpha Zander!!” Kiara ced her hand on her arms, shaking her a little.
“Yes, I did,” Adira confessed with a giggle, feeling a little embarrassed. She knew she was going to get
this kind of reaction from her.
“Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God!!”
“I am so happy for you, Adira!!” Kiara screamed with excitement while holding her sister as the two
ladies jumped around like crazy in ce before realizing their mates had been watching their craziness
from the start, and had heard everything as well.
Both of the twins had blinked as they observed various expressions cross both the she-wolves’ faces,
which were so cute that they both chuckled at their mates at the same time. Kiara swallowed her saliva
while she searched the room for Xavier. She assumed that he’d gone with his brother, but he’d been
watching her like a weirdo, and what was that devilish grin? Was he making a joke about her? She just
happened to act differently when she was with Adira.
Tearing their gazes away fromdies, the twins continued to offer each other a hearty embrace while
acting causally, which both Lunas noticed right away.
“How are you brother? I heard there was an attack in the Pack.”
“Don’t worry, it was taken care of in a matter of hours. It was a thrilling night. I also discovered that
there is a huge river beneath the cliff. It is ours since it lies inside our territory,” Zander informed him
casually as if it were no big deal.
“Yes, I suppose you are right. It is now ours. Well, Congrattions. You’ve imed your mate. Invite
Kaiden and Tyler over for a drinking party would be a good idea. Now it’s your turn to tell those two
curious males about your fantastic night. I remember how all of you had made my ears bleedst time
with all of your questions,” Xavier teased.
“Yeah, about the vampires…” Zander was about to change the subject and ask Xavier about other
things before both of the Alphas noticed Adira and Kiara had been watching them with irritated looks.
“What?” It was as if they were being pelted with poisoned daggers by their mates Xavier and Zander
exchanged puzzled looks.
How could these two men go from nonchntly discussing the cliff, the river, vampires, mating, and
marking?! They had exhibited zero emotional response to any of it, as if all of it were amon
urrence. Why would they be talking about mating? Did this imply that Xavier had also told his
brother, Beta, and Gamma everything about theirs?
“Perverts!” Both Lunas scowled at their Alphas and marched away, leaving them both perplexed as to
what they had done to bebeled perverts.
That was when the Gamma female and the Beta female arrived and both hugged Kiara. She had so
many questions, but that was for girl talk and they wanted some privacy, so she put it off untilter.
“Come on everyone. I have prepared lunch,” Jennifer informed the ranked males, who had entered the
pack house. As all thedies vanished inside the dining room, the Beta female grabbed Adira’s hand,
and Lena took Kaira’s. When the males entered the dining room after chatting a little, every woman
was
seated at her assigned chair.
“Brothers!!!” Iris, who had been hiding behind the wall, rushed over to her brothers and gave them a big
hug right away.
“Ahhh, do you want to kill us?!” Zander and Xavier yelled as she wrestled with both their necks, like she
did every time she saw them.
“I was born to aplish something that no enemy could!” remarked the green-eyed woman with a
grin. Before either of the brothers could get a handle on their sister to teach her a lesson by pulling her
hair and squeezing her face harder until she acknowledged defeat. Every woman at the ranked table
enjoyed the simple family drama of siblings.
That’s when Kiara spotted an Omega slipping on the floor as a result of the long skirt she was
wearing.
“Careful!” The young Luna eximed, quickly reaching out to grab her hand before the hot food
could slip and burn her.
“Thank you Luna,” replied the woman, lowering her head. However, a faint growl erupted from the
Alpha’s chest, who had stretched out to grasp the young she-wolf’s stomach in order to avoid her
falling with the Omega.
“Didn’t I ask you not to run and not to shift?” Kiara lowered her gaze to Xavier’s hand on her belly. It
was like a shield that had been protecting her since she had fled, but she had failed to see that he had
also fled so that he could catch her.
“I am sorry,” The young Luna quickly apologized quietly while looking and feeling guilty. She had not
wanted to worry him.
“No need to apologize, just take care. It worries me,” Xavier stated as he drew her closer to him and
brushed the stray brown hairs that had fallen in her face.
“Am I missing something?” Xavier and Kiara eyes snapped to the younger Alpha who took a deep
breath as he crossed his arms over his chest giving them a doubtful look. Of course, it was not just him
but the Beta and Gamma couples, even Iris and Adira had narrowed their eyes at their siblings. They
had been quietly watching as they were neglected by the both of them.
“Ummm,” Kiara gave her sister a nervous smile but didn’t say anything. She didn’t know how she was
going to tell everyone. She was pretty shy, and she had no idea where to begin.
“Kiara is pregnant. We are going to have a baby,” Xavier announced, as if it were an everyday
urrence. Everyone’s eyes flew wide in surprise but the boys’jaws had dropped when they registered
Xavier’s nonchnt attitude. What f*****g unexpected good news!! The Luna was pregnant!
“Oh my Goddess!” All of the females screamed at the same time. All of Kiara’s friends and sister
jumped on her for a big hug filled with squeals of delight, causing the Alpha to move away from her.
“Congrattions!!!” Adira, Jennifer, Iris and Lena said together. “Thank you,” Kiara hugged all of them
with a huge smile. She had not been expecting this big of a
reaction from them.
“How long did you intend to keep this hidden from me?” Zander gave his twin a cotd re. It was tough
to look furious in this joyous moment, but the younger Alpha was known for his acting skills.
Tyler sneered, irritated, “Yeah, I’m sure this bastard was trying to get out of attending the party.”
“Yeah,” Kaiden agreed.
“f**k you, jerks! I only learned about it yesterday. Didn’t I tell all of you now?” Xavier snapped, taking his
seat.
“Yeah,” all of the men conceded while still ring at him but it was ignored by Xavier. Everyone took
their seats to enjoy their lunch.
“We were nning a celebration for Adira’s Luna ceremony. But seeing as another piece of excellent
news has arrived. We’ll be getting a new member in our pack soon, we’ll celebrate that as well,” Kiaden
announced.
“A party? When?” Xavier asked, checking on the food.
“The day after tomorrow. It is a full moon,” Jennifer exined to everyone.
“Wow, I was not expecting a party,” Kiara said. She was excited about it. A party for an unborn baby?
“I was also surprised when they told me, but they had decided everything already,” Adira chuckled. The
Omega began to serve the table.
“Wow, everything looks so delicious and different. Have you hired a new Omega?” Zander asked Lena,
noting each dish.
“Yes, there is something special about today. The only reason cannot be because of our return,” Xavier
pointed out.
“Everything today looks exceptional because Iris made it,” Lena revealed. Both of the twins’ gazes
were drawn to their sister, who wore a proud expression as she waited forpliments.
“Are you sure it won’t kill me if I eat it?” Zander inquired, his mouth full.
“Hey!” Iris shrieked, her cheeks flushed with rage. Why eat it if he was afraid of dying?! Xavier chuckled
while shaking his head, then took a bite of the food.
“It’s absolutely delicious. How did thiszy she-wolf enter the kitchen?” The elder Alpha mocked,
but Iris smiled back.
“It’s because I’m learning how to be a decent wife and mate. I don’t want to let my mate down,” she
murmured, scratching her nose.
“Hmm, what do you mean?” He questioned, noting the flush on his sister’s face. Iris shifted her gaze to
Adira, who encouraged her with a small little nod.
“I found my mate,”Iris revealed, holding her breath as she nced between her brothers’ surprised
expressions.
“What!!!” They both yelled together as their green eyes were wide. “Yes,” she answered, hiding her
nervousness. “Who is he?” Xavier and Zander asked together in a shout-like inquiry.
“Please stay calm. You are scaring her,” Adira grabbed Zander’s hand.
“Exactly. Take it easy and let her exin. She found her mate. This is good news right?” Kiara
suggested to Xavier who understood her and nodded. Iris got smiles from her sisters-in-mate but she
was still holding her breath. If they were acting like this now then what would happen when they
actually met him.
“I…” she started to speak but her voice stuck in her throat.
“I had decided to invite my mate to the party. He wants to meet you personally if you agree,” she
exined without giving any more information.
“Alright, invite him over for the party,” Xavier agreed.
“However, you must promise me that you will not hurt him. You won’t force me to reject him because
you don’t like him. I love him,” the younger sister demanded. Xavier and Zander were paying close
attention to her bodynguage. Something wasn’t quite right.
“Is he an Alpha blood?” Xavier asked, elerating Iris’s heartbeat.
“Yes,” she replied.
“Then there’s no issue,” he remarked before returning to his meal.
“Invite him to the party,” he said with a smile. Everyone began to converse while eating, but Iris’s body
had grown cold. Kiara and Adira had already noticed her.
“So you’re saying that everyone, even that f*****g traitor and his banished brother, were poisoned?”
Xavier cast nces between Tyler and Kaiden. After lunch, they had all gotten together in their office
for a quick discussion of the critical issues.
“Yes, they all appeared to be a suicide since the investigation revealed that they were not forced to
commit the act. They did it out of dread of being found, but it made no sense to kill their children. We
had no intention of punishing, banishing, or killing that family’s child. As a result, these suicides remain
a mystery to us,” Kaiden rified.
“Not only are these suicides a mystery, but so are the attacks that vampires have been receiving from
werewolves, who believe that they had been carried out by us. ording to Kiara’s theory, a third party
is attempting to create a conflict between vampires and werewolves. But who could that possibly be?”
Tyler stated, his eyes deep in thought.
“She said that it is someone who knows all there is to know about us and has spent years with us. They
may have known about Xavier’s trip to visit the Vampire King, as well as the fact that I was here
handling the pack. They are someone close, but well concealed,” Zander pointed out.
“The traitor or spy knew where we were both at the time and when they needed to attack our women.
Kiara was about to be injected with vampire venom and a blood-sucking insect by that werewolf. She
could have died at any moment. Adira was entrapped as well. They were about to feed her a potion
then murder her. But why were our women the only ones they were after?” Xavier wondered,
perplexed.
“You are totally correct. Why would they target Adira, who had been here for a month, if we trust the
Head Warrior’s statements and believe he let the wolves in that attacked our pack because they sought
revenge on us? I would have been their target, but they were only nning to kill Adira,” The younger
Alpha pointed out
“You mentioned that one of them indicated they were going to kill her because she knew something
that made her a threat, right?” Tyler had inquired.
“Yes, but when I asked Adira about it, she imed she didn’t know what they were talking about. Her
life is an open book, with just the few intimate secrets she has shared with me,” he exined.
“That means Adira knows something important, but she is also unaware that it has the potential to
expose something that was previously hidden to us,” Xavier spoke his thoughts out loud.
“This is exactly what I was thinking. Kiara had previously been attacked by a criminal wolf, but she had
been saved. This is the second time she has been attacked. It’s not normal,” Zander remarked, making
the Gamma and Beta look back and forth between the two Alphas. For a few seconds, their gazes
remained locked before they spoke.
“The girls are in danger! Someone is trying to kill both of the sisters.” Xavier and Zander realized at
the same time.
“So, now what do we do?” Kaiden asked. “We should not just increase the security of the pack but the
Lunas’ as well,” Zander ordered.
“Lance is a formidable bodyguard, but if the previous situation urred again, he would be alone.
Jennifer and Lena are the only two people that I have enough faith in to trust the safety of bothdies.
Jennifer is expecting a child, therefore she can not be under the stress of following orders. So from now
on, I’ll reduce Lena’s duties in the pack, and they’ll be focused on spending most of her time with both
the Lunas and Lance,” Xavier ordered.
“I understand, Alpha! The Beta and Gamma said together.

“Where should I ce it, Kiara?” Adira had been debating whether the flower vase should be kept on
the right or left side of the bed.
“Right side,” the young she-wolf decided, exiting the closet and examining her surroundings, that she
had transformedpletely. Xavier had already given her permission to change it as she pleased. So
she had reced the curtain, bed sheets, and a few other items. It waste at night, but Adira had
been constantly assisting her in order to allow her sister to work less.
“Everything looks perfect,” Adira imed, taking a deep breath admiring the flowers that looked perfect.
“Yeah, and you look even more beautiful wearing your mark,” Kiara smited as she lifted her brow, while
the other woman smiled and brushed her finger over her mark. They sat on the bed together.
“Yes, it is beautiful. This situation isn’tpletely repulsive to me. Everything that happened made me
realize how much I love Zander. I was not bold enough to admit my feelings, but I could only disclose
them when I was about to lose him. Fortunately, it was not toote for me, and I received my love,” the
elder sister recounted, recalling all of the amazing moments she had shared with Zander.
“Adira, I am overjoyed by your sessful love story. Even though this is not the case for everyone. I’m
sure Mother will be thrilled when she learns that you’ve conquered your long-held fear.” Kiara gave her
a
warm smile. Adira’s grin had vanished.
“You are right, my love story is sessful, but what about yours, Kiara?” She asked, holding her hand
as she looked deep into her sister’s eyes. Kiara was stunned for a few seconds by her sister’s
question.
“There is nothing to talk about in my story, Adira. You know that my destiny is fixed. So there is no love
and no sess,” Kiara replied, taking her hand back.
“Yes, I understand, but you’ve been with Alpha Xavier for over a month. I can see that you’re happy
with him, and you’re his mate. So why can’t your love story seed?” Adira inquired, concerned. Kiara
got off of the bed, her heart heavy due to her sister’s questions. She could not help but turn her face
away.
“Because I am just his surrogate, Adira. Yes, he is very good to me. He has never treated me badly.
He’s the man I’ve always wished for. Yes, his tenderness drives me so crazy that I can’t think straight.
When he isn’t with me, I crave for him. I need him all the time, but I know I won’t be able to keep him in
this lifetime.” Kiara put her hand over her chest to hit it a few times to calm herself. Her eyes shone with
tears but she took a deep breath.
“Kiara,” Adira got up from the bed to face her sister and called her name in worry.
“I’m well aware that I’m a moron. But I always gave it my all. I hold myself together whenever my heart
threatens to betray me and beat only for him. I remind myself of the surrogacy agreement I signed with
my mate. I understand that it is simply the mate bond. It makes me want to be closer to him. It was one
of the things that drew me to him. I’m already pregnant with his heir and will give birth to him soon.
Then, after a year.”
“Enough, stop hurting yourself. I am sorry,” Adira held her sister tightly, refusing to let her continue.
Kiara hugged her back, but tears welled up in her eyes. She had avoided thinking about this from the
beginning, but she had finally spoken about it in the end. She had no choice but to admit the truth of
her
reality.
“I wondered how you would handle this mate pull, Kiara. It is a living hell,” Adira drew back, her eyes
full of tears as well. Kiara had not nned a future like this herself.

“Adira, I’ve given it some thought. I can merely carry out my responsibilities as Luna and surrogate, but
I refuse to spurn his warmth. I can’t say I don’t want it. He embraced me for who I was. And I’m
confident that I can make a change his life. He is hurt and broken. I’m going to show him how to love
once more. Following my departure, he will ept a woman he will be able to love. Yes, I admit that
thinking about it hurts like hell, but at least I can have him for a year, right? Before I leave my pup and
him, I can create memories with him,” Kiara confessed with a smile on her face, oblivious to her own
tears.
“I have decided to be a little greedy but I deserved this much, right?” Kiara asked, afraid that she was
being too greedy.
“Yes”
“Yes, you deserve it,” Adira smiled, nodding as she cried along with Kiara. They hugged each other
again. Kiara looked up at the moon in sorrow.
Was it true that every love story was not bound to be sessful?
