My Miracle Luna
Chapter 53

{Wyatt's P.O.V.}

Seeing that pretty brunette with green eyes was something I didn't expect. I had to admit that she was quite the looker, but nothing compared to Rylee, at least that's what my heart says, not so much my mind. Hearing that she left the father of her child because he had hurt her only reminded me of Rylee and the fact that she too left me because I had hurt her. I guess there were a lot of women out there that no matter how much they loved their mate, they would leave them if when pregnant to save themselves the pain. I felt that sudden sting in my heart thinking about that.

What was strange though was that I felt drawn to this brunette even though I didn't know her, and when I held her in my arms, I felt her baby kick and it was hard from what I could tell. For some odd reason, feeling it kick made my heart flutter, almost as I was feeling my own pup kick. What I would give to feel my pup kicking inside of Rylee's stomach.

"Mr. Valencia, we're ready when you are," the team lead for my design team said.

"Great, let's get started," I said with a smile. The entire day comprised of meeting with different vendors, patrons, presentations, and lunch. Although my mind was all over the place, I couldn't seem to get my mind off of the brunette that I had met today. Something about her seemed off, and yet familiar at the same time, especially when I held her in my arms, it was like, I had felt her body in my arms before, which was strange since I had never met the girl until today.

Thankfully, I had a lot of work to keep me busy and keep my mind on more pressing matters, like signing new business contracts, and enticing new clientele to hire my company as the architecture behind any projects they may have. Thankfully, we signed six new individual customers and eight business customers. It was a great day, and the models we had laid out definitely got a lot of interest from some of the other big players that were there.

As we were cleaning up and getting ready for tomorrow, I was approached by a woman with hair blacker than night and blue eyes.

"Can I help you?" I asked her.

"Are you Wyatt Valencia?" she asked with a big Russian accent.

"I am, who are you?" I could tell immediately that she wasn't human.

"Someone who can help you,"

"Help me with what?" she came closer to me and leaned in.

"Remembering that who you have loved and lost, Alpha" she whispered. I looked at her and furrowed my brows. She handed me a card. "When you are ready, rip the card, and I will come to you," with that she just walked away. "Mr. Valencia, who was that?" my team lead asked.

"Um, potential business deal,"

"Oh, well you would like you me to add her business card to the pile?"

"No, I think will handle this one myself, thank you though,"

"Okay, well then, we're all finished for the day. Some of us are heading out for drinks, did you want to come with us?"

"No, I'm good. I'm tired and would like to get home. You guys did an amazing job, great work. I will see you all bright and early tomorrow,"

"Good night, sir," a few of them said and I waved to them. I waited until I was alone with Angelo.

"Alpha, who was that woman,"

"I don't know, but she said she can help me remembering that who I have loved and lost," I repeated to him.

"Alpha? Are you saying she can help you gain your memories of the Luna?"

"I don't know, but that's what it seems like,"

"How can you trust her?"

"I don't know if I can, but if she really can help me get my memories of Rylee back, then I may have no other choice," I pocket the woman's card, and Angelo and I go home.

The entire drive I'm lost in thought. Today had definitely been an interesting day. Meeting that young pregnant brunette, feeling almost as if I know her, but not really at the same time, and then the raven-haired woman claiming she can help me get my memories of Rylee back. I was frustrated and confused, and I just slammed the back of my head into the car seat. I just wish I could turn back time to before I was kidnapped. Then none of this s**t would have ever happened. Or may it would have still happened, who knows. When we finally got home, I didn't even want to eat dinner, so I just went to my office to work on projects for the convention tomorrow. Once the convention was over, and we had a few more contracts in the bag, I could leave everything to my employees and team managers to get everything done and I would just sign for things while working from home. I was so engulfed in working, that I hadn't realized that Kendrick entered my office until he cleared his throat,

"f**k, Ken!" I shouted nearly jumping out of my chair.

"Sorry man, but I've been sitting here for a least ten minutes. I even knocked,"

"What do you want?" I asked incredibly annoyed.

"Keaton thinks he may know someone who you can help you,"

"With what?"

"Figuring out what happened to you, and why you lost your memories,"

"Call him in," Kendrick got up and opened the door. Keaton walked in with a man I had never seen before.

"Alpha Wyatt, my name is Herman," the man introduced himself shaking my hand.

"Alpha, remember the doctor that did my paternity test?" Keaton asked, and I nodded my head. "Well this is her mate, her husband, Herman is a wizard, a good wizard," I looked at Herman who just had a smile on his face.

"How do you think you can help me, Herman?" I asked and had him sit down in the guest chair.

"Well Alpha, Keaton has briefly told me that you lost your memories about two months ago and that the only person you have forgotten is your Luna, is that correct?"

"It is,"

"I also see that your mark is gone," I just nodded my head. "By any chance, were able to see your mate's mark whenever you looked at her after you lost your memories,"

"No, I couldn't see it. It's partially the reason why I didn't believe she was my mate, she was unmarked, at least in my eyes,"

"I see," he hummed and tapped his chin. "At any point in time after your memory loss, did you have physical contact with her?"

"A few times, yes,"

"Did you feel anything? Any sparks, or that tingle that you get when you touch your mate?"

"None,"

"And your wolf, how did he react around her?"

"He knew she was our mate, but he also seemed to be lost in that factor. He knew, but he also doesn't remember her,"

"I see, this is quite a powerful spell you've been put under,"

"So, it is a spell?" Kendrick asked,

"Yes, Kendrick it is, and it was cast by a powerful dark witch. You see, this spell is typically used by good magic, to help those who have been rejected by their mate forget the pain of rejection. Erase the memory of the person who caused that pain, and it can be used for any species,"

"Herman, are you saying a dark witch manipulated the spell to make Wyatt forget Rylee?" Kendrick asked.

"That is exactly what I am saying, and from what I have been told, you were missing for a week, is that true, Alpha?"

"Yes, at least that's what everyone has told me,"

"And you remember nothing from that one week?"

"None whatsoever,"

"It is possible that whoever worked with the dark witch is someone that you know, and had your memories from that week erased as well as all of your memories of your Luna to hide,"

"Hide where?" Keaton asked.

"In plain sight, of course," Herman replied.

"Wait, are you saying that it could be someone from my pack that had me kidnapped and my memories erased?!"

"It is highly possible, Alpha,"

"Who hates me so much to ruin my life like this?!" I shouted and slammed my fist on the desk.

"I don't think it has to do with hate, Alpha," Herman said making me look at him. "I think someone was jealous of your Luna,"

"Jealous? But who would be jealous of Rylee enough to do something so extreme?" I asked.

"Wyatt," Kendrick got my attention. "There is one person,"

"Who?"

"Layla,"

"What?"

"Layla was extremely jealous of Rylee,"

"She was?"

"Yeah, you probably don't remember because that particular memory revolves around Rylee, but Layla was always giving Rylee dirty looks, she's always been obsessed with you ever since you slept with her that one time, and even during Rylee's Luna announcement, Layla tried to seduce you to make Rylee jealous,"

"What?"

"There's something else," Kendrick paused a moment and I waited for him to continue. "About a week or a week and a half after Rylee came to the pack, the day that you marked her, something happened between her, Layla, and Michelle. It was bad enough to where Michelle had to shift into her wolf to protect Rylee from Layla,"

"I don't remember any of this,"

"That is because it has to do with your Luna, Alpha. Any and all memories that have to do with her, whether directly or indirectly have been either wiped from your mind, or at the very least suppressed," Herman said to me.

"Kendrick, call Michelle in here,"

"Dude, she's pregnant and about to pop,"

"She can take the damn elevator. I want her and Angelo in here now!" Kendrick rolled his eyes and the mind linked Angelo and Michelle to come to my office. A few minutes later they arrived.

"Alpha, I hope this is important because I'm supposed to be on bed rest until my pup is born," she said while sitting down on the couch.

"Michelle, was there an incident between you, Layla, and Rylee after she first came here?" I asked her. Michelle's froze and gulped. She looked up at me and I could immediately see the fear in her eyes. "Baby, is that true?" Angelo asked her.

"I'm sorry Alpha, but I promised Rylee I would never talk about that day,"

"Michelle, you need to tell us what happened. Because of Wyatt's memory loss, he doesn't even remember that day ever happening," Kendrick said to her.

"What? You don't remember ever apologizing to me for almost punishing me?"

"I what?" I looked at her confused and she looked at me even more confused.

"Young lady?" Herman addressed Michelle and she looked at him. "Was the Luna present at the time the Alpha apologized to you?" she nodded her head. "Ah, that's why he doesn't remember,"

"Wow, okay, this makes things even more awkward," Michelle said fixing her gaze to the floor. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and nodded her head. "I guess I have no choice but tell you what happened then," she paused a moment and looked at me. "Alpha, you have to promise me that you won't go all commando. I'm heavily pregnant, and can't risk any high levels of stress,"

"I'll do my best to contain myself. Just please tell me what happened that day," I tell her. She nods and takes another deep breath.

"I remember going down to the library because I knew that the Luna would be in there. She loved to read, and since this was before she ever turned, it was the only place you allowed her to go unsupervised. When I got to the corridor that led to the library, Layla and her army of bitches were picking on Rylee, and not just saying mean things to her, they were physically abusing her, and Layla was shoving her on the ground telling her to stay down, and screaming at her for disobeying her as if she outranked the Luna. Let me just throw in there that we already had her Luna announcement before this even happened. Anyways, I helped the Luna get her to feet, and Layla was going on about how she was going to win you back," she said to me directly, "...and that she was going banish Rylee when she became your Luna. I stomped on her dreams when I pointed out the fact that you had already marked the Luna, and that's when Layla straight up lost it. She started shifting in the middle of the hallway, and I tried to get Rylee to safety, but Andrea and Sierra grabbed her, and Layla and I ended up fighting in wolf form,"

"Are you saying that Layla was trying to kill Rylee!?" Kendrick asked.

"Yes, Beta, I'm sorry that I kept this a secret for so long, but I promised Rylee I wouldn't say anything. She didn't want to make a big deal out of it,"

"Not a big a deal!? A pack member tried to kill the Luna! And you kept it a secret all this time!?!" Kendrick shouted.

"I'm sorry, Beta, but I gave my word to the Luna,"

"Michelle,"

"Alpha?"

"Do you think that Layla's jealousy towards Rylee is extreme enough to turn to dark magic?"

"I'm sorry? Dark magic?"

"Michelle, we think someone in the pack worked with a dark witch to erase Wyatt's memories of Rylee," Kendrick explained to her.

"In my honest opinion, f**k yeah, I think Layla would go to the extreme and work with a dark witch. Alpha, you need to understand that her obsession with you is unhealthy and borderline psychotic. You took her virginity, and she gave it up to you because you always said that you wanted your Luna to be pure, so in her mind, she thought that you were going to make her the Luna because she was a virgin when you two had s*x,"

"I never said that to her," I reply

"I know, but that's not how she sees it. So when you brought the Luna back from your visit at Halfmoon, Layla was furious and overcome with jealousy. Even at the Luna announcement, she said that she was going to show herself to the Luna by feeling you up in front of her,"

"And did she?" I asked.

"Yeah, she did. She felt you up really good and the Luna saw and ran away crying. You had to run after her and you two were even late for the Luna announcement. Your father had to stall for a few minutes until you two arrived,"

"I'm telling you, Wyatt, Layla is involved, she has to be," Kendrick said to me in a determined toned.

"Herman, how can the spell be broken?" I asked him.

"The only way the spell can be broken is if the one who cast it reverses it," he replied. When he said that I immediately remembered the black-haired woman from the hotel. I took out her card from my wallet. "What is that?" Kendrick asked.

"Someone who I think can give us the answers," I say and look at Angelo. He nods his head once at me. I tear card and it vanishes into thin air. After a minute, the woman appeared in my office. "WHAT THE f**k!?" Everyone shouted.

“f*****g hell! I could have given birth right here with that damn stunt!!" Michelle shouted holding her stomach.

"Well, that was a quick decision," the woman said in her Russian accent.

"Svetlana!?"

"Herman, it's so good to see you,"

"What are you doing here!?"

"The Alpha summoned me with my calling card," she smirked at him. "Allow me to introduce myself, Alpha, my name is Svetlana, I am a dark witch," she smiled but not in a good way.

"Cut the pleasantries, I want answers," I tell her sternly.

"Right to business, I like it. What would you like to know?"

"Are you the one who put the spell on me that made me forget my mate!?"

"Yes, I am,"

"Why did you come to me today?"

"As I said to you before, I am willing to you give you back your memories,"

"Why?"

"Because I wasn't aware that your mate was a Primordial, let alone the chosen one,"

"What!?" Herman shouted standing to his feet.

"Oh, I see that Herman here is not aware,"

"Alpha is this true!?" Herman asked me and I just gave him a look. "Oh, that's right, your memories, my apologies Alpha," He immediately turned his gaze to Svetlana. "Svetlana, do you realize what you have done!? YOU BROKE THE BOND BETWEEN THE CHOSEN ONE AND HER MATE! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT THIS MEANS!?"

"Yes, that is why I am here. He came to me looking for her a few days ago,"

"WHAT?!"

"Alpha, are you aware of a vampire by the name of Alessandro?" Svetlana asked.

"I am, I did research on him, but I couldn't remember why until my Beta told me that it was because of my mate,"

"Well, he came to me looking for her. Thankfully, he has no idea who she is, or where to even start looking, so hopefully, once I give you back your memories, we can find her and bring her back to you. She can only reach her full powers after you two are united, and she gives birth with you by her side,"

"Gives birth?"

"Yes, your bond as the chosen Alphas will bring about the strongest Primordials to ever exist in this world, but that can only happen if you two are together and if she ever is with child,"

"She's already with child," I tell her.

"What? What do you mean she is already with child?"

"Rylee was about a month pregnant when she left the pack, and rejected me," I answer.

"Oh dear," she looked like she just saw a ghost. "We must act quickly, I need to give you back your memories, and we must find her,"

"Svetlana! What have you done!?" Herman shouted standing to his feet.

"I did not know she was a Primordial! My client left out that information!"

"What client?" I asked her.

"Normally I would not disclose that information, but since I am as good as dead anyway, so I will tell you. It is a she-wolf by the name of Layla, she is part of your pack apparently and she is in love with you, Alpha. She came to me saying that she wanted to get rid of your mate because she believed ridding you of your mate would open your heart to fall with her instead,"

"No wonder she's been getting so pissed off every time I turned her down," I said under my breath. "Angelo, take Michelle back to your room, and then I want you and Owen to arrest Layla,"

"Wait, do not go after her yet, there is something else you must know," Svetlana said stopping Angelo. "Alpha, Layla is also guilty of another crime,"

"What's that?"

"The rogue attacks," she answered.

"What!?" I stood my feet.

"Layla and her accomplices hired me to help them kidnap humans and turn them into wolves to attack your pack to kidnap your mate, but it never worked, so the accomplices cut their ties, and Layla came up with a plan to kidnap you instead," "LAYLA IS THE ONE WHO KIDNAPPED ME!?!"

"Yes, I helped her by blowing out your tire and prevented your wolf from fully shifting, so that you were injured in the accident. The spell took a week to complete because your memories of your mate went back to your childhood. Also, Layla is currently not here, I would sense her,"

"And how would you sense her?" Kendrick asked.

"Simple, Layla ran out of money to pay me, so she gave me her soul instead. We are tied to each other, I will know wherever she is and she is not here,"

"Angelo, call Felix and his team to stop their search on Rylee and to fixate on finding Layla! I want her found and brought back here by any means necessary!"

"Yes, Alpha!" He and Michelle left the office.

"Wait, who are these accomplices?" Keaton asked.

"The Halfmoon Alpha and his sister,"

"What!? What the f**k do Ash and Emma have to do with this!?" I shouted.

"Wyatt," I looked at Kendrick. "Ash was Rylee's first mate, and before we left Halfmoon to bring Rylee back here, Ash took back his rejection and declared his love for her, but because he treated her like s**t with the whole slavery thing, Rylee hates him and his family,"

"Ash is in love with Rylee?" I asked verifying I heard him right and he just nodded.

"Layla must have teamed up with him to try and get Rylee back to Halfmoon, but since that didn't work, she changed her tactics," Kendrick replied.

"Damn, and I thought Terrine was f****d up in the head," Keaton said shaking his head.

"Terrine? Terrine Fields?" Svetlana asked.

"Yeah, you know her?" Keaton replied.

"Of course, she was one of my clients about a year or so ago. She said that someone was threatening her, and she needed a potion that would poison them," "WHAT?!" Keaton and Kendrick shouted.

"Did she say who this person was?" Kendrick asked his eyes black as night. Even Keaton's eyes were black.

"Some girl named Lisa, no, was it Izzy?"

"LIZZY!?!"

"Yes, that's it, Lizzy," she said with a smile. Only that smile soon faltered when both Keaton and Kendrick shifted into their wolves and lunged at Svetlana.

"STAND DOWN!!!" I commanded them, but they weren't listening. I quickly mind linked Jason, Milan, Hugo, Maddox, my dad, and Dylan to get in here. My office turned into an all-out war zone. Svetlana was using her magic to keep Kendrick and Keaton away from her. Herman and I were trying to fight back the two of them until the others came. And as soon as they did, they all shifted and got into the fight. I needed Svetlana alive so she could give me back my memories.
