The wolf who chased me!

10: Luna

Carden

I couldn’t let it go, who ever had scared her I was going to find them and kill them but first I had to make sure she was safe.

So I arranged for us to leave that afternoon, I wasn’t staying here one moment longer, it’s time my Luna came home, after all I have been waiting since I was 16 for this.

That’s when a wolf can find there mate, it just suddenly kicks in, and you can also finally hear your wolf inside you.

As an alpha I expected to find my mate quickly but after 4 years of nothing even after travelling around multiple packs, I had started to lose hope. However I also expected my mate to be a werewolf like me, not a human, although she wasn’t exactly human either.

I walked in to my room at the morrow moon pack to find El sleeping on the bed, she was breathing lightly and I just stopped to listen. The rhythm of it calmed me, the beat of her heart relaxed me yet somehow the sound of her voice and her light careful touches made me restless.

She made me feel like I was coming to life, like I was capable of anything, she made me crazy and I loved it.

I gently touched her cheek, I barely brushed my finger tips over her beautiful cheekbones but still she woke with a start.

She bolted up right, “you’re here!”

She looked relieved, “of course I’m here.” I sat down besides her, her hair was a mess and her eyes were glassy but she was breathtaking.

“I need you to get up,” I told her gently, “we’re leaving now.” I waited for her reaction, to see if she would argue or insist she couldn’t leave because of her mother, but she didn’t.

Instead she smiled and stood up, turning to me she held out her hand, so I took it, standing also and led her to the door.

She didn’t seem to be bothered about leaving her mother, which happened to bother me, I must remember to get the story on the women who raised my little mate. Something clearly wasn’t right and I intended to find out what.

Elora

We said goodbye to the pack, no one seemed happy I was still alive but they didn’t seem to want me to stay so they didn’t bother fighting it.

I stayed as far from Riley as I could but I could feel him watching me, luckily Carden didn’t notice.

He put me in a black Range Rover and off me went, he said we would be driving for a good couple hours and I should get some sleep but I couldn’t. I felt cold, I couldn’t relax my mind and I was fidgeting with the shirt I was wearing, it was cardens I had put it on earlier and it had seemed to help me fall asleep although it wasn’t working now.

Cardens hand found mine and he held on gently, before saying, “there is no reason to worry, no one will hurt you now.”

Just his hand on mine seemed to calm me down, I looked up about to say thank you to Carden but he was already looking at me. For a full minute we just sat there staring at each other, even as aware as I was of the driver in the front.

I knew it was coming, I could feel his tension, his need to be touching me more but still it shocked me when his lips came crashing down on mine.

They were warm and lovely, my hand went to his hair, it was soft and the perfect length to pull on, I heard a ‘click’ before I felt my seatbelt coming lose. Carden pulled me onto his lap where his hands found my hips with a steel grip but I couldn’t seem to care. He was strong and hot and he made me needy, he made me feel like if I didn’t have him I would die.

He nibbled on my bottom lip as I rolled my hips into him, and my body just went hot, I felt myself flush all over at my own actions, who was I? What was I doing? This wasn’t me!

Then I remembered what Carden had told me when we were talking about the mate bond, ‘uncontrollable desire’ and ‘can’t stop even if you want to’ rang in my head.

Suddenly I felt my power come up, oh no not again, I could barely stop myself from really hurting him last time.

I tried I really tired and when I looked at Carden and he was fine I sighed in relief pulling away just slightly, then the driver started screaming.

“Leon are you..?” Cardens question trailed of as the car hit a verge, rolling up, we were tumbled to the side, I felt my body hit something but it wasn’t hard.

Carden had moved himself to take the worst of the hit, his hand was covering my head but I felt his ribs c***k anyway.

No sooner had it happened, could I then feel him starting to heal, it made me feel lightheaded.

“Are you okay?” I heard cardens voice but I couldn’t focus, “are you okay?”

Carden sounded a little desperate so I replied, “yes, I’m f..” but he wasn’t talking to me.

The driver was unconscious, or I think he was just unconscious, I tried to focus, to see if I could feel anything at all but I couldn’t.

There was no emotion, no pain, no spark, he was dead, he was dead and I killed him, it was me.

I felt like I couldn’t breathe, I had to get up, but I didn’t manage to go before I caught Carden looking at me, I didn’t have to be empathetic to know how he felt.

I could see the horror in his eyes, he was scared, I had scared the big bad alpha king, I was a murderer.

Carden looked at me, he was angry and hurt, “what the hell did you do?”

I was speechless, I didn’t know how to respond, I didn’t mean to, I don’t even know why it happened this time. I wasn’t scared, I wasn’t trying to defend myself, I don’t understand.

We climbed out of the car and once I was out I started walking, where to I don’t know, but I didn’t want to face Carden.

I saw his disgust, hell I felt it, he saw me as a murderer and I couldn’t even blame him, before I made it more than five steps I felt his hand go around my wrist.

He gently but assertively he pulled me towards him, I didn’t want to face him so I let me back hit his front and his arms came around me, his breath was in my ear and he spoke.

“It’s okay, we are going to figure this out. I’m going to make it okay.” The anger had left his voice but I could feel his worry.

I shook my head and I tried not to cry, I could feel my body relaxing under cardens touch, how ever he did it I couldn’t tell you.

Suddenly it became way to much effort to stand, the trees at the sides of the road started to spin, and then everything went black.

***

When I woke up I was in a big comfortable bed, sitting up quickly I panicked thinking I was back in the same house as drake and Riley.

However I was in a different room, a much grander room, the four poster bed had gold leaf worked into the carvings of wolves, the sitting area consisted off a marble table and the most plush red chairs I had ever seen.

I got up noticing I was in silky blue pyjamas, there was a pair of fluffy slippers, so I put them on. I walked to one of the doors all the way across the large room, it was the bathroom, with a bath tub big enough for six people, a shower, two sinks and everything was polished to a sparkling finish.

I opened the other door that stood further from the big wall off windows so I knew it wasn’t the balcony. It was a walk in closet and it was bigger than my own bedroom, there were mirrors everywhere and clothes hanging pressed perfectly, shoes lined and shined and glass cases holding beautiful watches and a few jewelled weapons.

It was all for a man, there was nothing here that indicates a women ever even stayed the night and it brought me a little bit of joy.

Feeling a little satisfied I walked back into the bedroom but I heard some shouting from outside the room, I decided to try the door, I had a feeling Carden wouldn’t lock me inside.

And I was right, so I followed the sound of voices all the way to the end of the hall, there was a set of doors for a lift and a little along there was a set of double doors.

I waited outside the double doors unsure of what to do now, that’s when I heard someone inside talking, “she’s dangerous, do you really think she should be here?”

Then cardens voice, “she’s my mate, she goes where I go.”

Then a women’s voice, “of course she is staying, but you need to figure out what to do with her, because she is out of control.”

Carden spoke up again, “she has a lot of power and no clue how to control it, i will teach her.”

Then the other mans voice again, “have you even told her yet? What she is?”

There was silence for a second before Carden replied, “no, I’m going to when she wakes up..”

I opened the door and stepped inside the room to find three pairs off eyes starting at me, the women’s matched cardens perfectly and the other man had deep brown eyes. He looked quite friendly really, not at all what I was expecting.

“Well..” I said as Carden stepped in my direction.

He looked a little confused.

“What am I?” I asked looking him dead in the eyes.

Before he answered the women stepped forwards, “welcome. Elora is it?”

“El” was all I said, she was a smiling and I didn’t know what to do.

Carden came and stood by me, “el this is my mother laura and my beta, nick. This is el, your Luna.”

Luna!
