Alpha’s Surrogate by POOJA

27. The Alpha stole Luna’s food!
“Is there something wrong, Kiara?” Jennifer murmured, interrupting the young woman who had been completely focused on eating
The Beta female’s voice sounded anxious and worried about the Luna’s unusually gluttonous behavior.
“Yes, everything is fine. Why?” She responded while spearing a new piece of pancake without glancing up. When the young lady had
started her meal, she had already chosen to be the very definition of shameless that moming!
“Well, I guess you’re eating more than usual,” Lena remarked, clearing her throat. The Gamma female hadn’t wanted to bring it up,
but if she kept stuffing her stomach with all that food, she would make herself sick. Plus, Kiara wasn’t the only one in the dining room.
Though it was possible that she had forgotten, which was why Lena fell compelled to remind her oblivious Luna. Kiara tilted her head up
lazily to look at the Beta and Gamma couples. Kaiden rolled his eyes then immediately began wiping his mate’s lips with a napkin, while
Tyler gave his Luna a hesitant smile. Both men had no intention of making Kiara feel uncomfortable. So they resumed their meals with a
smile. Jennifer instantly motioned to her Luna, informing her that Zander had been observing her as well. Her husband’s brother!
As usual, everyone had gathered for breakfast. However, a new Omega had joined the kitchen staff today, and she had prepared
everything perfectly. Eggs, pancakes, chicken, and waffles were all on the menu. The delicious aromas wafting off of food had drawn
everyone into the dining area away from their hectic morning schedules. Jennifer’s mouth had watered and she had begun to eat right
away. The chicken had an absolutely amazing flavor! Her mood had been swinging wildly due to pregnancy, and she had been very picky
about food. Beta Kaiden woke up in the middle of the night to fulfill her demands for something different to eat. It was challenging for
him to meet her needs in the middle of the night as the Omegas were all sleeping, so the dedicated mate had learnt to cook a few things
for his stubborn mate.
He especially praised Kiara for the breakfast menu that morning. As the new Luna had specifically asked the new Omega to alter the
recipe slightly for Jennifer. The young woman could see that her pregnant Beta was totally satisfied. Kiara had instructed the Omega on
what spices she needed to add to make meals flavorful, something she had learned from her mother. Everyone ate breakfast as if there
were no tomorrow and congratulated the new chef. The Omega quickly admitted that the secret to her success had come from Kiara. But the young lady had no intention of revealing her latent talent.
How would Luna’s homemade cuisine fare if she taught the Omegas how to cook? It would be scrumptious and appealing! Everyone
could only daydream and wait for the day when the new Luna would cook for all of them. Lena and Tyler had been too preoccupied with
feeding one other and looking gorgeous, Kiara watched them, making Lena blush. The redheaded, ill-tempered woman blushed

unexpectedly, but how could she control her heart? Tyler had fallen deeply in love with Lena, more than he had ever dreamed
possible.
Alpha Zander had joined them shortly after everyone had begun eating. He had anticipated he would be a bit late, so he encouraged
them to start without him. Everyone’s bewildered eyes soon moved to the woman who always ate far less than the other people who
joined her for breakfast. But she looked different now. The young she-wolf had already finished her meal and was surrounded by empty
dishes. Yet Kiara continued to eat, the Omega was hesitant to pick them up.
Kiara’s gaze was drawn to Zander when Jennifer made a gesture. The younger Alpha had taken his usual seat in his designated seat.
But his food remained untouched. His chin had been resting on his palm as his elbow leaned on the table. He continued to observe the
young Luna scarfing down food. He hadn’t even started his own meal because his eyes wouldn’t allow him to look away the food eating
contest in which his sister-in–mate had unexpectedly joined. Could her little stomach manage all of the food? While the Alpha watched
her eat, the Luna smiled at his unknown expression.
What? I’m hungry. Can’t leat?” Kiara arched her brows, taking up another whole dish of food that had been resting next to her left
side. She had not forgotten what had happened a few days ago. He still hadn’t explained why he had needed to prove to Adira that he
didn’t have a mistress. When she’d asked Adira, she’d said, “It’s nothing.” The older sister had no intention of telling her sibling anything,
but she’d felt compelled to do so when Kiara had stated that she would not tell her anything if she got into trouble. Adira had to give in
and tell her what Frida had said to her, as well as the situation she was in with Zander. Kiara had become irritated. How dare that she wolf
consequences that she had gotten herself intol
Zander sucked in a long breath when he realized the cause of the young woman’s changed attitude was what had been said to her sister. Frida had called Adira a slut and Zander had been too late to stop Frida. Obviously, if someone had called Xavier slanderous words.
then Zander would have done worse than what Kiara had been doing right now. She looked quite rebellious. As expected, both sisters
had big mouths.
“Of course, you may eat as much as you want. But the plate you’re eating from right now belongs to my brother,” Zander lazily
pointed out, referring to the plate she’d picked up from her left. It was the side that Xavier usually sat on. Kiara’s gaze was drawn to the
empty seat of the Alpha, which had now been vacant for two days. It had already been two days prior to that since the last time, for a
total of four days. The Alpha had departed for a business meeting. Kiara had not talked about his changed attitude until now. Venus had
been irritatingły roaring in the young woman’s head for days. On the days when they hadn’t seen their mate, Kiara had lost her patience,
and she was now reverting to her old habits.
When she was frustrated, angry, and unable to express her emotions, she would eat her feelings! Her wolf had already been restless,
so she continued to eat despite the fact that her stomach hurt. She had never imagined that Xavier would turn out to be her mate, his
absence had been driving her wolf insane. He had already ignored her a few days before, now it had been four days, so the young woman
had lost her patience. Venus had not been with her when she had decided to be Xavier’s surrogate, so the wolf was aggravated about
having to suppress her desires for her mate. Kiara could hardly explain her everything but Venus was an animal.
Kiara took a big mouthful while observing the Alpha, who was a carbon copy of Xavier. Why did he have the same appearance?! She couldn’t forget the arrogant jerk of the Alpha who hadn’t bothered to return to the pack house even if he had come back from the city two hours ago. His brother’s emerald eyes remained fixed on the young she-wolf, whose gaze revealed what was going on in her head.
“Your brother’s food? Yes, this is his share, but where is he? The Omega made a mistake in making a plate for him. I can’t let the food
go to waste, so I’ll eat this too, if you don’t mind,”
The Luna gave Zander a tight-lipped smile as she shoved more food into her mouth. Everyone exchanged glances as they sensed the
Luna’s dark aura filling the dining area. Venus was really making Kiara act differently from her usual good nature. No one had ever seen this side of Kiara, it was incredibly appealing for a variety of reasons. Her cheeks were puffed out from all the food she had managed to
stuff into her little mouth. Her lips were a bit messy, but she still managed to look adorable. Could she really eat all of that food?
“What will Xavier eat if you ate his breakfast? Will you enjoy starving your mate?” Zander leaned back in his chair, his arms crossed across his chest, as he made the argument of a good brother who cared about his big brother. Jennifer and Lena giggled, while Kiaden
and Tyler rolled their eyes. What a good show. If Xavier had been here he would definitely have choked. Who would risk stealing the
Alpha’s food? Definitely the she-wolf that smiled at Alpha’s brother while eating the last piece of Xavier’s pancake. First he had not so
much as looked at her for days, so now should she think about him? The Alpha didn’t deserve breakfast!
“If he wants to eat, I challenge him to come and make me return his breakfast,” Kiara countered, chuckling. When she challenged his brother, the young woman received a charming grin from Zander, who should have been offended. The room went silent, prompting Kiara to gaze towards the Beta and Gamma couples. What had gone wrong? Were they outraged over the fact that she had dared to challenge their Alpha? What were they all staring at? Kiara felt a palm on her cheek coming from her behind, just before she decided to
glance back. The hand allowed her head to rest on the chair but pulled it back.
“Hmmm…” When Xavier’s delicate lips met Kiara’s, she gasped. Her eyes widened when she saw him. Her heart raced like a galloping
