Ocean Of Lies

Noah pt 1

WILLOW'S P.O.V.

As soon as it was over everyone got up and started heading for the door. We were all going to be eating dinner in the pack house tonight but since Dr. Steph didn’t think it was a good idea for me to leave the hospital for more than a couple hours a day, I was eating in the hospital Café. To my surprise everyone else was heading there to.  

“I'm so proud of you” Mindy said hugging me as most people did walking out the door. I just stood there with Luka, waiting.  

“Oh honey” My mom said giving me a hug 

“We love you so much, we are so proud of you for everything you did. Not so proud to hear you lost your virginity to Jason on our last family pack visit. But that’s a conversation for another time” My dad said joining in on our hug.  

“Get in here” My dad said pulling Luka in to.  

“Thank you” My dad said to Luka.  

“It was my pleasure” Luka said smiling at me 

“Mr. Heart" Luka said after we ended our hug 

“Yes Luka?” My dad answered 

“I would really love your permission to take Willow on a date.” Luka said with his head high, Sam and Jen just stood there confused. He had never asked permission for anything before, especially not taking a girl out. Even I knew this. Mindy and James stood there proud. Knowing that maybe they did actually raise him right  

“I’m not sure Luka” My dad said. Mom Nudged him in the side 

“I give you my blessing to take Willow on a date. Inside pack grounds. And she has to be back in her room by 9pm.” My dad said holding his side.  

“I'm not a child dad” I said looking at him with pleading eyes 

“I know you're not Willow. But you will always be my little girl and I just got you back.” My dad said meeting my gaze.  

“9 pm will be plenty of time, maybe you’ll be back by 8” Luka said winking at me 

“Mhm. I’m going to regret all of this” My dad said rubbing his face 

“Probably, just like my dad did when he said yes to you” My mom said shoving him out of the room. With Mindy and almost everyone else following behind them expect of course. Jess and Jason 

“I meant what I said Willow Elise Heart, I love you with all of my heart, and nothing will ever change that” Jess said giving me a hug.  

“I love you to Jessica Marie Laverne” I said smiling back at her. I was immediately met with a slap upside the head  

“Willow, first of all. I'm glad you are safe and back where you belong, you were so brave to tell everyone like that. After everything you went through, I know I couldn’t last like you did. And second. Way to out me to everyone” Jason said  

I noticed Lukas eyes turning black again slowly, I could tell he was trying to keep calm. I held onto his hand and they went back to his normal gray 

“Jason, thank you. For everything. If it wasn’t for you, I don’t think I would have known how to get through anything I went through. You and Jess helped me become the best person I could in the worst possible situations. Which is why you are like a big brother to me. I’m glad you were mated with Marissa; I know she makes you happy. Despite everything that happened. I think I could try to be a little nicer. And second, outing you for the man-w***e you became?”  I said laughing and squeezing Luka’s hand 

“I love you Willow.” Jason said giving me a hug  

“I love you to Jay” I said and looked at Luka who was still surprisingly calm. 

“let’s go eat flower” Luka said to me as Jason released his grip.  

“Of course, love” I said walking with him  

“Love huh?” He said looking down at me  

“Too much?” I said shyly  

“I love it flower” he said leaning down towards me, I thought he was going to kiss me but sadly I was mistaken.  

As we reached the café, I could see everyone sitting together laughing like old times, everyone having fun. There was a spot for me and Luka at the table with my parents and they waved for us to come over, I saw Jess and Jasons faces fall sad, I took Luka over to the table and he sat down, but I stayed standing and they just looked at me confused.  

“Mom, dad, Aunt Mindy, Uncle James, Sam, Jen.” I said nodding my head.  

“Willow aren't you going to sit?” My mom asked.  

“Well, there isn't enough room for Jess and Jason. They have been my full supporters since I have been here and have stayed with me since the day I woke up, I feel like I would be ditching them by sitting somewhere there isn’t room for them. So, I am going to sit with them but feel free to stay here Luka, enjoy spending time with you family love” I said and turned my heal, suddenly I felt a hand on my arm.  

“Wait for me” Luka said standing up smiling at me  

“I’m proud of you, as sad as I am that I don’t get to eat with you Willow, standing up for your friends makes me proud. You have grown up a lot” My dad said to me 

“I know, and I thank the goddess that I had you and mom to support me every day for 14 years, you helped me more than you realize.” I said smiling back at them and walking away to a table in the far corner where some pack members were eating with Jess and Jay. As I got closer, I could hear the whispers of everyone talking about my video, I knew people were going to talk about it but I had hoped it would have been behind closed doors. I struggled to black everyone out, they weren't bad things. Mostly ‘that poor girl’ or ‘she went through so much’ or ‘I would I have killed myself’ but there was the occasional ‘she was probably wearing something productive when she went missing’ and ‘it's probably all a lie and she just did it to get attention’ I tried to ignore them as much as possible but of course it was harder to when you think these people are your friends. Eventually we had reached the table with our plates and sat down to eat next to Jess and Jay, a blonde hair woman with light blue eyes, Marissa, and a man with dark brown hair.  

“This is Willow.” Jess said smiling at me  

“And you all know Luka” Jess said rolling her eyes.  

“Who could forget Luka” The blonde hair woman said in a flirty voice and my blood started to boil at the thought.  

“You need anything Love?” I said loud and clear so that she understood he was off limits.  

“I’m okay Flower” Luka said smiling at me. He knew I was trying to place my claim on him.  

“Love, flower?” the brown hair man said  

“Yes Jace” Luka said rolling his eyes  

“Why weren’t you ever this affectionate with me?” The blonde hair woman scoffed  

“Well, It's simple. I didn’t like you like I like Willow” Luka said smiling at me never moving his eyes from mine  

“Well then. I never” she said again  

I couldn’t help but let out a small laugh  

“What's so funny?” She asked in cocky voice 

“Well, I mean if that hurt your feelings then you have to be a snowflake” I said smiling at her 

“Oh no” Jess said automatically  

“Willow, was it?” She asked, I nodded with a smirk  

“Why don’t you just go missing again” She scoffed 

“Well, I would, but I think Luka might miss me to much” I responded quickly  

“It’s okay, I'll help heal his pain. Although I don’t think it would take much” she said again 

“Alright Lisa, enough” Luka said quickly  

“No please continue, I'd love to hear more of what you have to say” I said quickly putting my hand up to Luka.  

“Did you just---” Luka started to say 

“Shhh, adults talking” I said to him and he just had a look of pure shock on his face which made Jess and Jay laugh, since I've been doing it to them anytime something was making me mad.  

“You’ll get used to it dude” Jess said smiling  

“So please, continue, or is there a c**k in that w***e mouth of yours, Lisa?” I asked quickly smiling again  

“You did not just call me a w***e” Lisa said slamming her hands down on the table  

“Well, technically I said that w***e mouth, but if the whole-body fits” I said throwing my hands back  

“Listen b***h, you are just some street rat Luka found and decided to take in, you have no place in this pack or any other. You are nothing but a rouge.” Lisa spat at me.  

“Oh yeah? Street rat? That’s a new one” I said laughing  

“This is gunna get bad, fast.” Jess said to Luka warning him  

“Well, you probably haven’t been around a lot so maybe I'll take you where you actually belong, in the trash” Lisa said again thinking she had gotten the better of me 

“See its funny you say that cause I'm pretty sure that trash can says ‘Lisa’ on it, would you like me to show you home?” I asked quickly, still calm and cool 

“I haven’t seen her like this in a while” Jason said to Jess, Luka had moved next to Jess so he could get everything on how I'm acting and take notes 

“I know, the last time she was this calm about anything was when she broke kylies' leg.” Jess said snickering, Luka had a look of pure shock on his face.   

“Show me home? Honey, on a scale from 1-10 you’re a zero and I'm a 20” Lisa said smiling  

“It's funny you say that, I'm guessing that nose job in the last 5 years has done you well?” I asked and she nodded  

“It's funny cause at the rate you are going you're going to need another one” I said laughing 

“Oh yeah?” She said quickly wiping the smile of her face 

“Yeah” I said squinting my eyes with a smirk  

“I mean, I’d stop while your ahead Lisa.” Marissa said  

“Shhh, grown-ups are talking” I said putting my hand up to her.   

“I would really like to see you try Willow” she said smirking  

“I mean keep going if you want, if not I suggest you get up and walk away” I said calmly  

“I mean how old are you now? 18? I'm 17, so try me” she said thinking she got the better of me 

“Actually, I'm still 17, until Sunday” I said laughing a bit 

“Listen Willow, why don’t you just go back to Kris and let him and his wife continue to have 3 ways with you” Lisa said sneering at me 

“What did you say?” I asked growling  

“I said why don’t you just go back to Kris----” she said before I grabbed her by the throat  

“Willow calm down” Luka said trying to talk to me.  

“Luka don’t get in the middle; it won't end well for any of you” Jess said pulling him back  

“Yeah, show Luka who you really are” Lisa said. I knew she remembered me, but she apparently doesn’t know who I am now. All eyes were on me, and as a future Luna of my pack I had to be careful of my next move. Since she was a member of black moon and I was almost 18 I knew what would happen if I actually hit her, even though I have every right to.  

“I will say this once and only once, for you and everyone else in this room. My past does not define who I am. The last 5 years in captivity I did what I had to do; not willingly might I add. Unlike you who I already know spreads your legs for anyone who will have you. Kris and Cece, were my abusers, they r***d me and beat me, and forced me to do things I didn’t want to. But I did what I had to do to survive. I will not have disrespectful people like you, coming at me for what I did. I am the future Luna of the Dark moon pack. You will respect me” I said dropping her to her knees.  

“Is that understood, Lisa?” I said kneeling down grabbing her by the chin and making her face me.  

“Yes” She mustered out coughing trying to catch her breath 

“Yes what?” I asked sneering  

“Yes, Willow” She sneered at me.  

“Good girl.” I stood up and walked away. Everyone was completely shocked but just to be smart asses Jess and Jay started clapping, which everyone else followed through with as well. Including Luka who stood there shocked as I walked towards him. He wrapped his arms around me and picked me up.  

“I knew you had self-control” he said nuzzling his head in my neck  

“When it comes to anger yes, when it comes to anything else, barley” I whispered in his ear automatically making his soldier harden  

“Don’t” Luka said when I tried to walk back to my seat 

“Don’t what love?” I whispered in his hear again  

“What are you doing to me woman?” He groaned in my ear  

“Well, it's working, isn't it?” I asked and slowly backed away and sat down, patting the seat beside me.  

“oooo” Luka said sliding into the seat next to me.  

I could tell he was worked up, I figured it had something to do with me controlling myself and not beating the crap out of Lisa, or maybe it was just whispering in his ear that got him hot and heavy, whatever it was he was still getting hot and heavy now. Even though we were just sitting there talking and eating.  

“Are we still sleeping over?” Jess said with pleading eyes 

“Yeah!” I said excitedly  

“Okay, well since Luka is here, I'm going to go home and grab some more clothes and shower, since Logan never showed up, I really don’t have to worry about it.” Jess said quickly standing up  

“Yeah, I think I'm going to go home and shower to, spend some more time with Marissa, if it's still okay that I come back” Jason said looking between Luka and I, Luka gave me a reassuring look and squeezed my thigh  

“Yeah, that’s fine!” I said smiling as Luka's hand moved slowly up my leg 

“Also Marissa, I'm sorry for snapping at you, I just can’t have other people talking while I deal with a disrespectful person, It’s the one thing I'm bad at managing” I said sincerely  

“It's okay, Jay explained it and I completely understand, sometimes it's hard to think straight or even fully focus on something “ Marissa said giving me a small smile  

“Okay, I'm glad you understand but I'm still sorry.” I said standing up and clearing my plate 

“f**k what time is it?” I asked in a panic  

“Uhm 7:55 why?” Jason answered confused 

“f**k I gotta go. Jason, please show Luka to my room, I'll see you in a bit, okay?” I said pecking Luka on the cheek 

“Oh um, everything okay?” Luka yelled after me as I was running out of the café 

“Yeah, just late for something!” I yelled back turning the corner and running all the way to Lena’s office.  

“I’m so sorry I'm late!” I yelled running right into her door.  

“Willow” Lena said opening it with a smile  

“Ow” I said picking myself up off the ground  

“Oh, my goddess Willow are you okay?” I heard a familiar voice from behind Lena.  

“Oh yeah, I am fine, perfectly fine” I said quickly fixing my dress 

“Noah, right?” I asked quickly  

“Yeah, we were friends a couple years back?” Noah answered with a chuckle 

“Well, a couple years ago I was held captive, gotta be abit more specific.” I said with a giggle 

“Oh god, I forgot. We actually dated, around 13?” Noah asked shyly  

“Oh my goddess Noah!” I yelled pulling him into a hug 

“Actually Willow, Noah wanted to talk to you so while you are here do you mind if Noah joins us for a bit?” Lena asked optimistic  

“Not at all, Heck sit in on the whole thing if you want to” I said pulling out of our hug 

“Noah are you okay with talking to Willow now?” Lena asked quickly  

“Yeah, that’s fine” Noah answered and I walked into the room 

Noah was like 6’6 with black hair and blonde highlights in it, He has beautiful blue eyes with hints of green in them, He was strong. But not as strong as Luka or Jay. He was cute and aged well, I couldn’t lie he looked a lot better now than he did when I was 13.  

“So Noah, since we really didn’t get to finish our session, why don’t you talk. Willow and I can get to her stuff later” Lena said quickly as we sat down.  

“Okay, Well Willow. I'm really not quite sure how to say any of this honestly or even how to fathom it into words” Noah said his breathe catching in his throat  

“Noah, it's okay. Just breathe and tell me what's on your mind” I said reassuring him  

“When I heard what happened to you it broke me, well it broke the whole pack. The daughter of the Luna, missing. Stolen, kidnapped. No one wanted to do anything after a while but I always had hope that you would come back. I tried so hard to get over you after our breakup but I know that you kinda have a thing with Luka and I respect that but I need you to know that I still love you like the first day we met.” Noah said quickly never once taking a breath before putting his head down. 

“Oh Noah, I do like Luka, a lot. But we aren't official. I'm not saying something is going to happen between you and I, I just don’t want you to get the wrong impression. You are such a sweet man, and you definitely have the looks going for you, but right now I'm trying to focus on one thing at a time” I answered giving him a reassuring look 

“I understand that completely Willow, take your time. I’ve waited 6 years. I can wait a few more.” Noah said flashing me a smile   

“Noah, I meant that I want to see where things are going with Luka, who knows he could be my mate” I answered trying to put things into prospective for him  

“I understand Willow, I have a girlfriend. I just wanted you to know where I stand with everything” Noah said flashing me another smile.  

“Okay Noah, now its Willows turn. You can stay if you want but everything that is said in this room is confidential. Which means technically Willow can talk to other people about what you said but because this is a private session with Willow you cannot talk about it with anyone else, if you do you could be sued by Willow and her family and possibly go to jail.” Lena said explaining things to him  

“Okay” Noah said and sat back in his chair.  

“So, you went out today, Willow?” Lena asked trying to keep things very cryptic  

“Yes I did, and I had a lot of fun. I helped someone find their mate today. I took in everything I could, sights, smells, sounds. I was reunited with my family and my friends, and Luka of course.” I said quickly. For some reason I felt a little weird about Noah being there while I talked about Luka.  

“Well, that’s good, did you have any flashbacks or anxiety today?” Lena asked straight to the point noticing how uncomfortable I got when I started talking about Luka 

“I had a couple, during the video. And some anxiety about the whole day. As well as 2 panic attacks that Jess helped me come down from. She always really knew how to calm me down. And as long as I was next to someone during the video my flashbacks were a minimal and barely happened.” I said being cryptic about Luka.  

“Jess is a great person. I’m glad you have someone like her, how did you feel when everyone found out about Jason?” Lena asked trying to be cryptic but Noah was in the room when the video played so he knew.  

“Some anxiety, mostly calming some people down about it. But mostly it was good. Jess had already found out prior because well, we’ve been having sleepovers every night I've been here and I let it slip when she dog piled on top of me and almost killed me” I said letting out a small chuckle 

“Who’s all sleeping over tonight?” Lena asked quickly  

“Jess, Megan, Alyssa, Jason and Luka.” I said quickly  

“So normal of what you would have plus Luka?” Lena asked quickly telling I was getting a little more uncomfy about the situation  

“Yeah, he offered and honestly it’s nice to have someone around who doesn’t know everything about me” I answered quickly looking at the clock  

“Oh well, look at the time. I need to start packing up to head back home but Willow would you mind staying behind to help me a bit?” Lena asked quickly  

“Not at all.” I said politely  

“I can wait to; I'll walk Willow back to her room then” Noah said quickly  

“It’s okay Noah, Willow isn’t allowed to be out of her room without hospital personal with her. I have to walk her back or she and I will both be in a lot of trouble” Lena answered totally saving my ass and walking Noah out the door.  

“Goodnight, Noah” Lena said and shut the door in his face 

“You okay Willow?” Lena asked looking at me confused.  

“He traced ‘mine’ on my back Lena.” I answered swiftly  

“I’ll walk with you back.” Lena said gathering her stuff and opening the door.  

“I’ll have Luka or Jay walk you to your car Lena. I don’t feel safe for either of us right now” I answered walking with her.
