The Alpha and His Contract Luna (Lauren)

84. The results

“Have you already booked your flight?” I ask Claire.

Bash and I were in the bedroom assigned to us. It was the next day. Unlike the other day, yesterday I

managed to sleep well.

Mainly because Sebastian tired me out. I know that’s really not the reason. It is part of it but not the

main. The main reason is the simple fact that I slept well because Sebastian was close.

“Not yet. We were hoping to see if we could get a flight after the appointment, if not, we will get one for

tomorrow” she replied.

“Don’t worry I talked with Sebastian and you can use his private jet. Since your appointment is at ten,

the pilot will be waiting for you guys at the airport from twelve, is that okay?”

I had to confirm whether she had already booked their flight first but Sebastian had no problem with

them using his jet.

“Really? That would be so great, sure, business class is good but it can’t beat a private jet” she says

excitedly.

I smile. “Yeah, which means you will be here by today evening”

“It’s really good to have friends in high places” she gushed playfully, making me chuckle.

She wasn’t worried, I could tell that. That might change when she got here though. When she saw the

beta family.

Yesterday, after they looked at the photos for what seemed like hours. They asked me to tell them

about Claire. I told them all I could without revealing everything. Just the basics. I felt that if they did

turn out to be her family, then they needed to know her from her not from her bestfriend.

“Anyway let me finish packing so I can get to my appointment in time” she continued. “I’ll see you in a

few hours”

“Remember to let me know when you’re about to land so that I can pick you up”

“Will do” she responds and we hung up. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Sebastian walks out of the bathroom just as I was putting the phone down. I look at him, completely

hypnotized by his sight. He was drying his hair with the towel so he was butt naked.

My eyes travel down his body, following the droplets of water. I lick my lips watching him harden. How

the hell was it possible that despite being fucked right before he went to shower, I still wanted him, still

craved him?

“Red” he calls, his voice deep and seductive.

“Hmm” comes my unintelligent answer.

He chuckles. “If you don’t stop staring at me like I’m your next meal, we won’t be leaving this room and

I have to help Lucas and Luke”

At dinner time, Sebastian had agreed to help them set up computers and the rest. I wasn’t surprised

that he was a tech genius, after all his company deals with technology but Lucas and Luke were and so

were the rest except for Lilly.

I stand up and walk towards him. The moment I’m close, his hands snakes out and wraps around my

waist. I rise up on my toes and fuse my lips to his.

His kisses are something I could never get enough of.

“A quickie wouldn’t be a bad thing, right?” I mumbled in between the kisses.

A guttural sound leaves his mouth and I know I’ve got him where I want him. What was supposed to be

a few minutes of passion turns out to be an entire session of love making fest. I don’t complain though

because I feel relaxed afterwards.

“I’ll see you at lunch” he tells me, giving me one last kiss.

It was after we were finished. He was already dressed and ready to leave.

“Okay” I nod.

After he leaves, I take a shower and head downstairs after not finding Krystal and Jax in their rooms. I

assume that they are either at breakfast or at the beach.

“Morning, have you seen Krystal and Jax?” I ask Valery.

She was in the kitchen. Funny how she’s always in the kitchen cooking up something.

“Morning” she replied, smiling. She hugs me before kissing my cheek, “Oh, they went down to the

beach with Lilly”

I relax and take a seat at the breakfast table. She starts setting food before me. Given my little

exercise, I was a little bit hungry.

“So, how are you holding up? I know things have been overwhelming for you since you arrived” Valery

starts.

I sigh. I tried so hard not to think about it but I was beginning to accept that I was related to them. That

they were family.

I could no longer deny that it was too much of a coincidence not to be true. Everything fit in the puzzle

and my denial was just making everything harder.

“They were, but things are easier now that Sebastian is here. It’s a bit hard though, to accept that I may

have a whole family I never knew existed. My whole life it’s just been Claire and me, then came our

children and mates…I just don’t know how to deal with it” I tell her honestly.

“I know my dear, but isn’t having family a good thing? Getting to know that you’re no longer alone.

Accepting us doesn’t mean you no longer love Claire or she isn’t a part of you anymore, it just means

your family has expanded, you now have more people you can count on” she tells me squeezing my

hand, giving me a different kind of comfort.

I guess she was right. I hadn’t thought about it that way. That I would be gaining something instead of

losing. Lucas and Valery seemed to be amazing parents. Luke isn’t that bad and Lilly is a good woman.

“Thank you for that perspective. I haven’t looked at it that way, I just thought how horrible it is that I am

finding out about you when I am older. I felt like it was too late, like nothing good could come out of

knowing now.”

Valery comes to stand by my side. Giving me a one handed hug.

“Nothing is ever too late and we have a lot of years to get to know each other. We already love you

Lauren, you’re a part of my sister and a part of us…how can we not love you. Lilly has been filling us in

and from what she has told us you’re an amazing woman and I can’t wait to know you more”

Her words bring tears to my eyes, because she was right. It was never too late to get to know your

family. It would have been something else if I had been unwanted but I was not. I was loved and

treasure until someone cruelly took me from them. Even then, their love persisted and they refused to

give up on me until all hope was lost.

“Thank you Valery” I tell her, hugging her back.

I feel treasured. I am engulfed in her warmness and love and it’s everything I’ve ever wanted.

“Anytime my sweet” she replies.

We let go of each other. I go back to eating while she cleans up the kitchen. When I am done, I excuse

myself and head down to the beach.

The moment I get there, I spot Lilly seated on the sand while the kids play. I go in her direction, then sit

down next to her.

“You okay?” I ask her

She turns to look at me and I see the toll everything has on her.

“I honestly don’t know” she sighs. “I always wanted a sister when I was younger but dad and mom

refused to have any more children. Then, here I am years later learning that not only did I always have

a sister but that it’s one of my bestfriends”

I selfishly made this all about me, not realizing that Lilly and Luke might be struggling with this just as I

was.

“How do you feel about that?” I ask. “If the results come out positive, how do you feel about having me

as a sister?”

I wanted to know what she was thinking. What was going on inside her head.

“I don’t mind, in fact I would be ecstatic…I was just worried that you wouldn’t embrace us, you wouldn’t

accept us, that you wouldn’t accept me and you would still be against the idea of having me as a

sibling”

It hits me that she’s afraid I would reject her. That I wouldn’t want her as my sister. It pulls at my

heartstrings that she would think that.

I pull her close. “Listen to me Lilly, I would never reject you…I was against the idea at first because I

thought it was already too late, so many years have passed and I just didn’t think there was a way to

bridge that gap. Your mom made me realize how wrong I was in thinking that way, but even if she

hadn’t, I wouldn’t have pushed you aside or shut you off. I wouldn’t have rejected my sister”

“You mean that?” she asks slowly. Almost as if she was afraid to hope.

“Yes… Besides, how can I pass off the chance to be able to boss you around as your older sister?” I

joke

She laughs. The shadows that were surrounding her, now gone.

“That doesn’t apply” she scoffs. “You’re still my Luna so you can still boss me around”

“True” I chuckle at that.

The awkward air that had been between us evaporates and we fall back to how we were before.

We were just chilling and talking about nothing important when Sebastian reaches out to me through

the mind link.

“Could you and Lilly come to the house? Lucas just received the results of the paternity test”

I give him an okay then turn to Lilly.

“We need to go, they’re waiting for us at the house”

She must have seen the reason why in expression, because she doesn’t argue. She nods then stands

up. Before leaving, I let Hunter know so that he could watch Jax and Krystal.

It wasn’t a long walk but it still felt like a thousand miles. The anxiety that I had managed to overcome

was now back in full force.

We enter the house and find Sebastian, Lucas, Luke and Valery. I was glad that they hadn’t invited

everyone for this.

I immediately went to Sebastian, needing his warmth and comfort. He wraps his arms around me.

I inhale his scent and it calms down just a little bit.

I turn to face Lucas. He had the letter in his hands. I nod at him and he begins to open it. My heart beat

increases and my hands begin to sweat in anticipation.

He gets the content of the letter out and begins to read. Seconds later a beautiful smile breaks out on

his face. He looks up and his eyes connect with mine.

“You’re mine” He breathes, tears misting his eyes. “You’re mine and Hailey’s daughter”
