Suddenly A Luna

Suddenly A Luna Chapter 12 Meeting the Blue Lake Pack

Brenna's POV

Entering the dining hall there are hundreds, no wait....thousands of pack members either getting their food from the buffet, already eating at the long tables throughout the room or just talking amongst each other.

Looking around, I am bewildered. I didn't expect to see the whole pack here. I thought It would just be the ranked members. Jax holds onto my hand tightly as he leads me farther into the room.

Suddenly thousands of faces turn to watch us. I must have forgotten to breathe because Jax looks at me with concern in his eyes and reminds me to do just that, his voice is so low my werewolf hearing barely understood it. I know that was for my sake, not the packs. I thank him, without any words, but by kissing him quickly and fiercely.

If anyone wasn't looking our way before they definitely are now. Jax chooses this moment to embarass me completely with his next words.

"Since we seem to have everyone's attention, now is a perfect time to introduce the beautiful shewolf next to me." he turns and winks at me and then continues addressing everyone "Members of the Blue Lake Pack, this is my mate Brenna, and your future Luna. I expect each of you to show her the utmost respect and give her a friendly welcome to our family." Jax says confidenty, and with a tone I doubted anyone would disobey. He pulls my face back to his and kisses me gently.

As soon as he pulls away and takes my hand again, continuing to our table, the room descends into temporary madness. With so many people, erm...werewolves present that's bound to happen I guess. I hear members shouting "welcome luna", "congratulations alpha" and a few angry female voices saying how they should be the Luna, not me.

After what seems like forever we reach our table. It is the closest to the buffet. All of the tables in the room are made of dark cherry wood with matching benches and cushions that look surprisingly comfortable. The only difference between our table and the others is that our is much smaller and centered closest to the buffet, farthest from the double doors we came in, and no other tables are along side it.

Looking around I see Jaxsun's parents seated at one end next to each other, then there is a man I haven't met yet, which I am assuming is the packs Gamma, next of course is Damien and my best friend Addyson. I stand in shock for a moment at her being here. Until I remember she is like me and also Damien's mate.

Jax sits down next to his beta Damien while I run to hug Addy before I sit next to her and across from Jax. I am so happy she is here. I feel a lot less nervous with her here too.

My stomach grumbles loudly causing both Jax and Damien to chuckle. Jax hurries off to the buffet, bringing back two plates filled with pancakes, sausage, bacon, hashbrowns, biscuits, crescents and blueberry muffins. It all smells delicious. I grab my plate and dig in, starting with the pancakes.

Everyone focuses on eating until we can't eat anymore. I definitely ate too much, more then I have in a long time. My stomach feels like it will burst at any moment. I did eat everything except my biscuit and crescent though. Feeling embarrassed, I push my plate away and look down at my hands in my lap.

Addy and Jax ask me what's wrong at the same time. For some reason I start laughing which lasts for several minutes. Which makes everyone else at our table laugh too

I love their friendliness towards me. I just hope I can do them proud as their Luna. No matter how much I want to run for the hills at the thought of failing everyone. How the hell am I supposed to lead them so soon?

*You're not alone in this Brenna. You have me, our mate and everyone at this table to support you. The moon goddess chose us for this B. Everything will work out. Now quit overthinking its giving me a headache* Kyra growls in my mind.

Hmph.... why does my wolf always seem to know what to say?

*Thats easy, because i am a part of you. We are two souls in one body*

I look over at Jax, watching him as he talks amicably with everyone. I am not alone and neither is he. We have each other. I know there is something he hasn't told me, and as much as I want to know I don't want to push him. He will tell me when he is ready, I hope.

Pack members begin to clear out of the dining hall. Many of them walking to our table and welcoming me as their future Luna. Though when a group of shewolves walk over to us, they blatantly ignore me while they ogle Jax trying to get his attention.

One of the shewolves in particular, a blonde with brown eyes and ample cleavage, puts her hands on him, comfortably like she is close with him. My anger starts to rise when she sits on his lap. I growl at her closeness to my mate. Jax had been ignoring her until that. He pushes her off of him, her ass landing hard on the floor. Without looking at her he growls loudly "Do that again and I have no problem letting my mate shred you to pieces Annabelle".

The shewolf, Annabelle, gets up, shaking with anger and stalks out of the dining hall.

Her friends laughing as they follow her out.

"B are you okay?" Addy asks.

Unable to speak, I nod my head as I focus on calming my breathing.

"Are you sure? If some shewolf had her paws on Damien I would've put her in her place instantly" she states as she looks at Damien making sure he heard her.

Damien puts his hands up in a way that says he wouldn't try to stop her.

"I'm fine. I need to use the bathroom though." I say quietly, trying not to let my emotions get the best of me.

Jax looks at me carefully before nodding and kisses me quickly on my cheek.

I stand up, heading toward the double doors we came in, and to the stairs that lead to our room. I really need to be alone right now.

I pass by several pack members, each of them smiling at me.

Before I can get to the stairs I hear someone moving towards me. I turn around, only to be punched in my face. My body twists to the side before landing on the floor. Someone grabs me from behind so I can't see them clearly. I sniff around me, checking their scents. It's Annabelle.

Kyra is trying to come out and rip her throat out. I don't know how long I can hold back the change. My hands turn into claws.

Annabelle hits me across the face and then kicks me in the stomach causing me to stumble back even with her friends holding onto my arms. She is snarling at me, her fangs are out and her eyes are glowing menacingly

"Who do you think you are b***h? He is mine. You will never be luna" she snarls again as she moves forward aiming for my throat. Before she reaches my neck, I headbutt her. Sending her flying back several feet. Her body is shaking violently as she shifts, her clothes ripping to shreds. Annabelle's wolf is smaller then mine, and a dull not quite golden color, her eyes are brown with specks of gold. She states at me , sizing me up for a moment.

My body starts shaking, and just when I am about to give Kyra control, a beautiful silver wolf strikes her side, knocking her down and pinning her to the ground.

Sniffing the air again I realize it's Addyson in her wolf form. She is about the same size as my wolf, her eyes are glowing violet. Soon we are joined by Knight in all his glory, with a Black and grey wolf with grey eyes, just as big as him. I assume it's Damien as he quickly joins Addy helping pin down Annabelle and rubbing up against Addy, sniffing to make sure she isn't hurt.

Knight strides over to me and growls at the females holding my arms. They let go and step back. After checking that I am okay he shifts back. Jax stands before me and pulls me to him with a look of relief in his blue eyes.

Not letting go of me, he turns us to Annabelle glaring fiercely. If looks could kill Annabelle would already be dead.

In his alpha tone he roars "Annabelle Shift back now". Annabelle's wolf whimpers as she is forced to obey her alpha. Soon Annabelle is kneeling on the ground with Addy and Damien next to her, still in wolf form.

"Annabelle Broderick you were warned, you tried to kill my mate, and disrespected me as your alpha. Since it was my mate you attacked I will let her decide your fate. I will gladly rip your throat out, since that's the normal punishment for your crimes, however It's only fitting that our future luna Makes this call".

With a look of shock I turn to Annabelle Angrily. Letting my hands go back to normal I stand next to Jax and wonder what to do. An idea comes to mind. Turning to the now crowded room I say "Put her under house arrest for the night and I'll announce my decision tomorrow."

Damien pulls her up, along with the Gamma and they drag her out as she whimpers, tears of anger rolling down her face.
