42 Parker Well if she wanted to be like that , so be it , she was the one to always climb on him , or nine out of ten times anyway .
She liked the s * x , the feel of those mate bond sparks , told him often enough she craved to feel it as she was climbing on him .
Parker , I want to feel all the sparks inside of me .
shed tell him .
He sometimes wondered if that was all he was to her , a good f ** k and nothing more .
They didnt have anything in common , and were rapidly growing apart , not that they had ever been really close .
He didnt like fighting with her , but this right now , her up and leaving the pack unattended , when she knew he wasnt here was utterly irresponsible of her .
She wanted to be a model and only work as a model , not be a Luna .
Then fine , thats how he would treat her , as just a model .
He accessed her Lunas card and adjusted the unlimited funds access .
Checked all her modelling jobs and the fees shed earned from them and allowed her access to only that amount .
She was not going to be wasting pack money when she wasnt actively going to be here looking out for their pack .
He leaned back in his chair and wondered how long it would be before she tried to buy something or charge a suite in hotel and found out she couldnt afford it .
She also declined more jobs than she accepted .
If she didnt think the product suited her , she wouldnt model it .
Lets just see how long you last out there on your own money ? he thought to himself .
If she wasnt going to be a proper Luna , then she couldnt have access to the funds of the pack .
It was going to be that simple .
He had really tried over the years , hadnt rejected what the Goddess had given him , but sometimes he really wished he had .
She should have known by now that he would restrict her monetary access ; hed done it before on many occasions .
He also put a restriction in place for when she got back as well , so she could not transfer funds from the pack to anyone , so that they could give them to her in return and avoid his limiting her spending , hed seen her do that before , and every purchase from within the pack she made , that was over $ 500 was now going to be flagged by his pack accountant .
He did not know many Lunas that travelled the world on their own , without their Alphas permission and a full warrior escort .
Parker wouldnt mind so much if Carina had waited until he was back inside the pack , discussed it with him first , and he organised a detail of warriors to go with her .
He mind linked to Katie , Did Carina take an escort ? he asked .
1/4 42 +10 Point Not that I saw .
I have her travel details ; I insisted on that , Parker She sighed .
5 : Can you please bring them to me he asked , She did , and he read them over , a one way first class ticket and a suite at the Hyatt Grand Central .
He saw the modelling offer , it was just a one day shoot , and the fee wasnt going to cover her flights , let alone a suite .
He glanced at his watch and saw that the shoot would be over by now .
He checked her card , shed not yet bought a returned flight .
She was going to stay longer than the job .
He even knew why .
She was going to go shopping for the latest New York fashion .
He texted her When will you be coming home ? When I want to .
Im the Luna to the pack , not some everyday wolf .
You cant push me around .
He stared at those words , and damned near tossed his phone across the room , she could be a good Luna , if and when she wanted to be .
But her modelling career it seemed , was more important to her than their pack right that minute , showing him that entitled side of her that he really didnt like .
Hed thought Goddess Gifted Mates were supposed to help each other become better people , but it didnt seem that was ever going to happen with his Mate .
He tossed his phone on his desk and left her to it .
She was about to get a violent shove back into reality by him .
Not something hed had to do in over two years now .
Shed learned the hard way more than once over the past eight years that he did follow through on punishments for infractions , and had , he thought , put the pack first , as he did .
Right now , he understood that she did not , had likely just bided her time to make him think that after their last major fight over her entitlement issues .
He walked down to accounting and had the packs accountant pull up her complete income since shed become his mate ; went over it , frowned at Bryce , she was not even contributing to the pack , like everyone else that worked , he questioned Bryce about that right away .
No , she doesnt .
I did deduct the usual 10 % that is required from her first modelling job .
He pointed it out to Parker , She pitched a fit about it .
Told me she was exempt from that fee , because she was the Luna .
Parker frowned Give me all of her transactions for the past eight years .
He asked , and it was printed out and handed to him ; again , he frowned What is this ? he asked , pointing to many cash transfers to a bank account .
2/4 +8 Poin 42 What it looks like , happens about once every two months , transfers five to ten thousand out .
You didnt query it ? And to who .
Parker asked .
Hm , again .
Shes the Luna .
Has access to pack funds to distribute how she sees fit .
The first one flagged me , was 15 thousand about a week after you mated each other .
Two weeks later , she was officially your Luna with the ceremony .
She has since dropped it down under the flagging limit .
Whats it for ? And whos it too ? Parker huffed ; the man had not answered that the first time .
Youd have to ask her Alpha … Im not at liberty to say any more than I have now .
Parkers eyes moved from the papers , right to Bryce , Not at liberty to tell your Alpha what he wants to know … he thought about that for only a moment and realised what was going on .
Youre under a Lunas order then , to not tell me .
Bryce said nothing , just stared at him and Parker understood that , yes , Carina had come in here and Luna ordered him not to tell the Alpha of her stealing money from the pack .
Tally it all up for the eight years and give me a figure , He muttered .
Sat and waited it out , watched that man do just that and then write it down on a piece of paper and slide it across the table to him , avoiding the pain of that order by not saying it out loud $ 568,000 Half a million dollars .
He grated out , what the hell was going on ? He had never thought she would go to that length , and right from the moment they were mated to each other, as well .
He should never have accepted her even though she was his Goddess Gifted mate .
She had been deceiving him for their entire mate bond .
The question now was who did that money go to , and why was it going to them .
Eight years of deceit .
Shed never loved him , not for a single second , he now realised .
No , it was just about who he was and the pack funds shed have access to .
Hed been so stupid, he was normally a very careful man about who was here in the pack .
But his pain at losing Belladonna had been too much , and hed used that Goddess Gifted mate bond to try and get over it .
When he should have suffered through it , and been diligent about Carina , like hed thought to be when bringing her here for that month ; hed had doubts right from the get go , but ignored them in the end , to try and get over his pain of his severed mate bond .
It was no ones fault but his own , it seemed , hed done this to himself .
