The Beast's Virgin Claim

Chapter 147 - The Moon Makes No Mistakes - Part【4】



She takes a timid peek at him from behind me and he immediately bares his canines at her in criticising for he knows now the actuality of the situation. He knows she was secretly watching them and that I had come here to take her away. He closes his eyes with an exhausted look upon his face as though he is fed up with his little sister, she is hard to manage. He once more meets my eyes and slightly tips his head as a sign of appreciation.

"Is he coming? Am I in trouble?" Gianna whimpers from behind me.

Ira stiffens in her spot beneath her male eyeing him glimpse out to the garden where Gianna and I stand, she begins to shift in a way that would assist her to turn around and encounter us but her mate prevents her from doing so. He captures her jaw in a fierce grip bends down and thrusts his tongue into her mouth. And that is my cue to leave. He wants more time with his female, he is not willing to give up on the opportunity just to scold his sister. I completely understand. I think Gianna is what juveniles would call a cock blocker to her brother.

Grabbing her wrist I steer her away from the garden and up towards her pink bedroom. She soundlessly follows me without another protest for she knows in a few minutes she will earn a good scolding from her brother. Her pink lips are jutted out in an upset pout as I shut the door behind us. Unable to stand anymore my sore swollen heels giving me pain I sit down upon the chair next to her bed that has numerous dolls of all types and colours scattered upon the rumpled sheets. Though she is naughty her brother spoils her a lot there is nothing that she does not possess.

"What was Gio doing with Ira?" She asks me with interest as I stiffen in my seat and snap my gaze at her. What do I even say at this point, she is a pup she will believe anything I state.

Taking a few seconds to come up with something plausible I answer her. "They were...wrestling."

"Wrestling? I have never seen such type of wrestling before." She says with alert eyes. Smart female.

"It is a type only adults can do."

"Really? Then can I do it when I grow up? It seemed fun and Ira enjoyed it." Goddess help me. If Phobos was here I would be met with one of those filthy teasing smirks of his and he would have definitely replied to her in a dirty way just to get a reaction out of me.

"Maybe but only with your mate. This type of wrestling can be done only with your male." I utter. She will learn about all this when she becomes a juvenile, they will teach her in school but I heard from Ira that Alpha Giovanni has an appointed female who homeschools her. So maybe she will get that talk from him. Goodness, I hope she will survive that when the time comes I cannot imagine getting a sex talk from Cronus.

"Okay." She sighs her lips dipped downward showing to me her upsetness.

"What is it?"

"Gio won't spend time with me anymore. He is either working or he is with Ira. I think he does not want me here. I feel like I am an extra weight for him to carry." There is an audible hitch to my breath at her words. How can a pup speak this way, she is only five?

"Come here Gia," I whisper softly patting my lap whilst parting my legs for her. She crawls towards me and stands up raising her arms as I set my palms under her arms and lift her up. Once she is settled on my right thigh she snuggles into me pressing her nose into my hair inhaling my scent.

Lumina had briefed me all about Gianna on how her parents had died when she was barely a few months old and how she has grown up without receiving motherly love. Her brother Alpha Giovanni tried his best to raise her but as she matures she seeks a certain type of warmth that only a mother can provide her with.

"You know your brother loves you."

"No, I am his responsibility. A few other pups had told me I am his burden." My hold on her tightens as I gaze down at her lovingly. She is wrong, so very wrong about him. Her brother puts her first in many ways but she is too young to see and to understand it.

"Gia, no. How could you ever think that way? He is your family and yes he might be strict with you but only because he loves you and wants to protect you."

"No he doesn't and I have decided to leave when I turn sixteen. I will go somewhere else to a place where my brother will be free of me."

"Do not say that! You are all your brother has." Is this what happens when a pup grows up without parents? Her brother is an Alpha his pack comes first but I do not know if he is aware of his sister's emotions and of such thoughts that should not exhaust a little one's mind.

"He has Ira. He does not need me. You see how I try to get his attention. I am not allowed to play with the other pups but he won't play with me either. Until last year he would read me a bedtime story every night but after he brought Ira home he never comes to find me."

"Gianna, Ira is his m-"

"His mate, I know." She smiles up at me and my heart aches for her. "At the school, there was this art competition that I took part in a-and I won. Do you want to see my medal?"

"Of course. Go bring it, I would love to see it." She leaps out of my lap and rushes towards one of the drawers. She pulls it open and rummages through it plucking out a small golden trophy that glimmers in the sunlight pooling in through the open window. She runs back to me and lifts it for me to see her chest puffing up with pride in her achievement.

I seize it from her hand and gently skim the pad of my thumb over the engraved words. "Gianna. First Prize." I read it out aloud and beam down at her.. "Well done, you brother must have been proud of you."
