Queen of The Damned

Chapter Nine

(Blue’s POV)

“I’m leaving for Arizona” I stated, I refuse to have these two decide my future for me. What if I don’t want to be ‘Luna’? What if I don’t want to be with Matt? Do they care? No, so why on earth should I?

“Blue you...you can’t just leave. You are my Luna. You are the future of this pack!” Matt said with pain in his voice.

“I don’t care. Find a new Luna” I said crossing my arms over my chest and turning my back to them. I couldn’t help feel guilty for how I’m treating them but they should feel just as bad. It’s my life I should get to choose what I do with it not a bunch of people I had just met!

“I’m gunna go find James” Casey said awkwardly trying to get out of the situation.

“Blue there is no other Luna! You are the only one.”

“That sounds like a you problem not a me Problem.”

Matt let out a groan in frustration “Why are you acting like a baby about this?! You don’t even understand what your doing!” He shot up from the bed and started pacing around the room.

“Oh I understand what I’m doing. What you need to understand is you can’t just make decisions for me! I have a job waiting for me, an apartment, a life! I’m not just gunna settle down with some guy I had just met, get married, and run a pack of...of...WOLVES!” I said glaring at him.

“Blue I will do what’s best for my pack, but I also want you to be happy.” He said walking over to bed and kneeling down in front of me. He put his hand on my lap and continued talking. “I know this is a lot of new information for you to take in. I know it can be stressful but you have to understand without you the pack doesn’t have a chance.”

I gave him a sigh “I’m not what this pack needs. I will try to understand your way of life” Matt smiles ear to ear with my words. “BUT that doesn’t mean I have chosen to stay. If I by some miracle decide to, that doesn’t mean I will be Luna nor will we be a ‘thing’.” Matt hugged my waist and chuckled. “Now I’m still hungry, let go so I can have pizza.” I said, honestly just wanting him to let go of me. Matt unlatched his arms and grabbed a few boxes of pizza. He sat them on the bed where I picked out the biggest slice I could find.

“So what does your pack think of you having a Human Luna?” I asked with my mouth full of pizza. Matt sat quietly for a few seconds.

“Well honestly they don’t know your human. Well most of them don’t know, the ones in this house know about you but they don’t know you are my mate.”

“Won’t that cause problems for you? I know your top dog but won’t some of them look down on you?”

“It’s called alpha not ‘top dog’ princess, and no one will look down on me or you. Just as I can sense who my mate is they can sense who their Luna is once I mark you.” He said casually taking another bite of pizza.

“Uhm back up a second. You can sense your mate? How? And another thing ‘mark’? You mean what a dog does to a tree? ‘Cuz I’m not all about that. It’s cool if you are no judgment here but...gross.”

He gave me a confused look then burst out laughing. “Oh goddess Blue, no! NO! Not like that. Gross!”

I sighed in relief “Good”

“What I mean by sensing your mate is you can smell them when they are near by. Their smell is intoxicating to you, their touch feels like little electricity runny through your veins. You are pulled to that person like a part of your soul has been missing and that person is the one who completes you.” Matt explained with so much passion, it had me thinking ‘I feel little shocks when we touch, and I always know when he’s close because of the smell of honey and pine’.

“Hey Matt?”

“Mmh?” He hummed.

“Can humans feel a mate pull too?”

“Uhm. I’m not sure, like Casey said earlier you are the first human mate in history. I guess the real question is do you feel any of those things?” He asked with a hopeful smile. I shrugged my shoulders but I could feel my face blushing. “It’s pretty late you should probably get some sleep Blue”

“Do you have a guest room?” I asked even though there was a million rooms in this house, one of them was bound to be empty.

“You will be staying in my room.”

“W-WHAT!?”

“Calm down, you will be in here alone.” He chuckled, “I have things to take care of before tomorrow.”

“What kind of things?”

He took a long pause before finally telling me. “Telling my father about you.” He said before walking out of the room, closing the door before he left.

I flopped back on the bed and gave a heavy sigh “I can’t stay here.”

(Matt’s POV)

I walked down the hall and to my office. I pulled out some paper work to begin looking over it when a sudden noise distracted me, it was a knock on my door. “Enter” Said In my alpha tone. As I waited for a person to walk through the door.

“You better watch your tone.” The familiar voice said.

“Dad! It’s so good to see you!” I got up from my chair and walked around my desk to properly greet him. I gave him a firm hand shake.

“How has the pack been Matt? Busy I presume?” He put his arm around my shoulder as we walked to my desk. “I heard there were rogues sniffing around. That hasn’t happened in centuries. What changed?”

“They got brave I guess.” It wasn’t the right time to mention Blue, besides she should be sleeping and I know my father will want to meet her. “Everything is handled so there is no need to worry about that now.”

“Yes of course there is more pressing matters to deal with.”

“Oh? Like what?” I asked very much confused.

“Well I’m not getting any younger, and with rogues sniffing around, I think it’s time you give up on meeting your true Luna and pick one of our strongest female pack members to take the spot.”

“What the hell are you talking about?!” I was furious he would even suggest something so preposterous. You can only reproduce with your mate, picking just anyone to be Luna wouldn’t serve anything to this pack.

“What about Shea? She has always been strong, she comes from good breeding. She will make a fine bride for you.”

“No. I will do no such thing father, your being ridiculous.”

My fathers eyes grew furious at my rejection to his words. “Matt you may have taking over the role as alpha of the pack but I am still your father, so you march yourself to Shea and ask her to be your Luna. That’s an order.”

“Even if I wanted to, which I definitely do NOT. Shea is no longer in this pack.” I stood my ground, my wolf was pissed at the thought of giving Blue up for Shea. He was pissed at my father for even suggesting such a thing.

“How the hell could you kick out one of our strongest members! Your mother is rolling over in her grave because of you! Out of all the stupid things you have done over the years this is by far the worst.” My father pacing around the room, his eyes never moved from mine. My wolf took it as a challenge, and he knew he would win. His mate, my mother, was gone but mine is here. That alone makes me stronger then him. “Go and get her MATT!”

“No.” My eyes turning red as my wolf took over. “She is no longer welcome here.”

“Are you challenging me son?”

“What if I am? You’re weak I won’t take pride in it but I won’t let you control me.” How my wolf feels towards my father is the same way Blue feels about me. I’m planning her life out without even thinking about her feelings. I’m such an i***t.

“You’re dooming this pack with your stubbornness! You will never find your Luna, so just give up! For all you know she’s dead in someone else’s pack, or sold to another alpha, or just a w***e pleasing any wolf that will let her! Get your head out of your ass Matt and grow up!”

I’m sick of his talking, his voice is giving me a headache. I launch my self at him and slam him into a wall. My hand tightly wrapped around his throat, my canines baring down on him. “I HAVE FOUND MY LUNA AND I DON’T APPRECIATE THE WAY YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT HER!” I roared at him. I could hear gasps of air trying to escape his lungs so I squeezed harder. “If you ever disrespect your future Luna again I will rip you limb from limb and feed you to the coyotes. Do I make myself clear?” He was only able to nod under my grasp. I released him and he slumped to the floor coughing. “Get out of my office.” I said before returning to my seat at the desk.

He got up from the floor. “I apologize for my words alpha, but you must know I only care about the future of this pack.” He said with a raspy voice still coughing. “You must allow me to meet this young woman.”

My eyes shot up at him. I could see fear in his eyes now would be the time to tell him about her. I pondered on the thought. “No.”

“No? What do you mean ‘no’?”

“You will not meet her. Not until she officially becomes my Luna.” I said with venom on my tongue.

“Can you at least tell me a little about my future daughter in law? Like what is she like, is she pretty, does her wolf fancy yours?”

“Her name is Blue, she is like a single drop of heaven that fell to the earth, she does not have a wolf.” I said still shuffling through my paperwork. He wouldn’t dare say anything about her being human, not after a few moments ago.

“N-no wolf?....oh you mean she hasn’t shifted yet. Well you can help her with that when she’s ready.” He gave me a smile he’s trying to be understanding but his head is to dense to actually understand.

“No. She doesn’t have a wolf. She’s human.” A small smile came across my lips as I remembered her smile and eyes looking back at me at the waterfall.

“T-that’s impossible! A werewolf can’t have a human mate. That’s just unheard of!” I looked up at him glaring, waiting for one small mistake to exit his mouth. “B-but I w-will look into it of course.” He said stumbling for words nervously laughing to himself. I waved my hand to signal ‘leave before I change my mind and kill you anyway’. He clumsily reached for the door nob and made his way out the door bowing to me before closing the door behind him.

“Well that went better then expected” my wolf said

“Thanks for having Blues back.”

“She’s my mate too you know.”

I chuckled at our conversation.

“We should get back to her.” He said with worry in his voice. I got up from my chair and started walking to my room.

(Blue’s POV)

As I laid in the bed I felt my body get more comfortable. I grabbed a pillow and brought it to my chest, I could still smell Matt on it. I needed to get to the front door but before I knew it I was dozing off. In my dream I felt something warm wrap around my waist I looked down to see arms then I looked up to find the owner hoping to find Matt, but this person was not him. His cold black eyes starring down at me his long black hair tinted with red. Then he smiled his teeth razor sharp in rows like a sharks. “Found you.” He spoke before sinking his teeth into my neck.

My eyes sprang open with a gasp, I still feel the weight of the strangers arms on my waist. I looked down to where the arms used to be and let out a blood curdling scream.

“WHAT?! What happened?!” Matt shot up from his position at the sound. I punched him in the arm. “Owe what the hell did I do?!”

“Why are you in my bed?!” I demanded.

“It’s my bed princess. I must have fallen asleep. Why the hell are you freaking out?”

Matt’s bedroom door swings open with James and Casey standing in the door way.

“What’s wrong?!” They both shouted. Both of their faces turned red instantly and they looked away from me and Matt. When I looked down to investigate their sudden mood switch, Matt was shirtless and we were both underneath the covers. I let out yelp and smacked Matt again.

“Ow! Would you stop that!?”

Casey and James both laughed while walking back out of the room and closed the door behind them.

“Why are you shirtless?!”

“Uhm because it’s comfy....why aren’t you.” He said earning himself another punch to the arm. “Ow.” He said chuckling.

“I swear if you did any....”

“Why the hell would I want to?! You have a dark and twisted mind princess, you know that?” He said shocked that I would even suggest such a thing. “More importantly why did you scream in the first place?”

“I-I had...a nightmare.” I said looking at the ground in embarrassment.

“Come here.” Matt said while still laying on the bed. He extended his hand out for me just like when he took me to the water fall. My heart skipped a beat, am....am I falling for him? I shook off the thought and crawled onto the bed with my back against Matt’s chest. He gently tucked me in, his hand around my waist and gave me a kiss on the head.

“Good Night Princess, sweet dreams.”
