Chapter 43 CHAPTER 43
I felt the movement of her arm and waited for her to strike me. But it never came. Instead, I heard Titan voice.
"Do not ever try and slap your Luna ever again Jessica Carter." Titan said angrily.
I heard the whole room go dead quite. Then Valen was at my side again.
"Alpha, I'm sorry I left her here to get her breakfast to go into the garden. I didn't think..." Valen was saying when Titan cut him off.
"Take her to the garden, stay with her. I will grab coffee and be right out. Titan told him. Valen wrapped my arm around his and picked up what he put on the table. He started to walk with me through a bunch of people who stopped talking as we neared them. I could hear Titan address the room as we got to a door.
"You can all go back to what you were doing. Stop you gossiping or I will have your heads. Now move it. Jessica I told you to stay away from her." He said with a growl.
"You are funny Titan, nice joke. You think that some blind rouge will be our Luna." Jessica said. As the door was closing behind us I could hear the slap she got.
"Raven come on now, there is a nice table right over here where you can enjoy the sun." Valen said. Guiding me to the table. After I was sitting down and he showed me where my coffee was and told me he got me warm croissant with fresh butter. He sat on a chair opposite me.
"I'm sorry, I did not mean to cause so much trouble." I told him.
"No trouble at all Raven, it is good to see you wanting out of that room." He said. I could feel his smile.
"Still maybe I should have woke Titan." I said taking a sip of my coffee. I could hear someone approaching us, Valen stood and greeted Titan again.
"Shall I wait to escort Raven to her room Alpha?" He asked.
"No!" Titan snapped at him. I heard Valen start to walk away.
"Valen!" Titan said in a calmer voice.
"Yes, Alpha." Valen said.
"Sorry I snapped at you, thank you for helping Raven, where did you find her?" He asked.
"Kale and I were coming from the dungeon; she was on the elevator Alpha." He said.
"Thank you, can you get a key card from security for her, and we will show her how to use the elevator later today." Titan asked.
"Yes. Alpha, anything else?" He asked.
"I will be assigning you to Raven as her personal guard starting this afternoon. I have to take care of this Rouge King shit so unless I am with her you will be." Titan told him. I was shocked why did I need a personal guard. But I said nothing I waited to get yelled at. I heard Valen walk away. I sipped my coffee and then tore a piece of my
croissant.
"Well, my mate I see you got adventurous this morning." Titan said he was smiling.
"I was tired of being cooped up in that room I just wanted to have coffee in the garden I never realized......" he cut me off.
"It is fine Raven, I'm sorry we have not come down as much as I should have been bring you. Now when you want to go anywhere if I'm busy Valen can take you. He is my best warrior. I would trust no one else with your life." Titan said.
"But does he not have other duties?" I asked.
"As of today, no." Titan said firmly.
"Titan?"
"What is it love, do you want more coffee?" He asked. I shook my head no.
"Why did you tell that woman I was her Luna. I can never hold such a possession blind."
"Who told you that?" He asked.
"No one, just ....." he cut me off again.
"Blind or not you are my mate and the packs Luna." He said firmly.
"They will never accept me Titan I'm a rouge and may be permanently blind." I said keeping my head down.
"Raven, you are a strong woman in so many ways. Don't let this set you back any. I have a question for you my mate." He said. Then paused someone was walking our way.
"Alpha sorry to disturb you breakfast there is a man in your office who wishes to speak with you right away." Juno said.
"Who is here this time of the morning?" Titan asked."
"An Alpha Hal, he says we are harboring a criminal Alpha." Juno said.
"What the hell, get Valen here now, you stay with Raven until he get here then bring the others to my office. Raven I will meet you upstairs please go back up where you will be safe. I do not know this Alpha." He said. I nodded. I would not argue with him. I'm the criminal they are obviously talking about. Valen came quicky and took me to my room we went in a different way then we had come out. As we went up the elevator I was silent.
"Raven, I have ordered fresh coffee brought up and fresh croissants brought as well." Valen said.
"Thank you." I said.
"I'm going to like my new position. I have seen some of your drawing and heard part of your journey here. I hope in time we can be friends and you can share more with me. My mate died ten years ago, and my only son is mated now with a beautiful wife. They have four pups that keep him busy." Valen rambled on as we walked to my room. I was more relaxed now that we were upstairs Titan scent calmed me. But I will never admit it to him. Valen had stopped talking.
"I would like that too." I told him. The elevator dinged and Valen said he would be right back with the coffee I went and sat on the couch.
"I hear you made quite an appearance downstairs." Carry said coming into the room. I had jumped nearly out of my skin I did not think she would be here yet.
"Raven, I'm sorry I did not mean to frighten you." She said coming and taking my hands.
"It is ok, Carry." I told here. Valen came back and the three of us had coffee and chatted about the morning event that most of it I could laugh about.
TITAN'S POV
"I linked Lance he was not in the office yet.
"Do a search on your laptop for this Alpha Hal." I requested.
"I'm already on it Titan. So far I'm getting nothing. I have one more thing to check then I will come to the office." Lance told me.
I thanked him and closed the link. Deisel, Kale, and Juno were already in the office. They bowed their heads when I entered. The man sitting by my desk and put out his hand to shake mine. I ignored it. That was his first mistake we clasp arms in these parts not shake hands like humans.
