Suddenly A Luna

Suddenly A Luna Chapter 7

Brenna's POV

I wake up the next day feeling refreshed and energized. Which never happens. I stretch like a cat until my arm touches something very warm and hard. I freeze looking next to me....Jax is sleeping peacefully. That's when the events of last night flash through my mind.

The voice in my head...Kyra. Jax shifting into a wolf followed by me. Our wolves ran together and played for what seemed like hours. Kyra and Knight marking each other. Finally we made it back to my apartment but I don't remember anything after I shifted back except being very tired. Jax must have carried me up here and put me in bed. He told me I am his mate and that it's for life.

So it was all real and not just a dream. Sh*t. Werewolves are real and I am one of them.

I knew my world was going to change soon but I never expected this. I need caffeine before I can even begin to process this.

Now I just have to get out of bed without waking up Mr. hottie. However as soon as I move a tan arm is around my waist. Looking back at him his eyes are open and he has the biggest grin on his face.

"uh...hi" I mumble unsure what to say.

"mmm...hello beautiful. Did you sleep okay?"

"Yes actually. For the first time in years." I wonder to myself why that is.

"Shifting takes a lot out of you the first time so you were exhausted Also not trying to freak you out or overwhelm you love but the mate bond has a lot to do with it" Jax explains "Mates calm each other when nothing else will, so we will sleep better together and be drawn to each other. Once you've marked me in your human form we will be able to know where the other is and how the other is feeling". He says before kissing me quickly on the lips.

Trying to pull away I tell him "This is all a lot to take in. You seem very certain of this invisible mate bond when we barely know each other. I get it's a wolf thing. I just need time to process it and right now I really need coffee and a few minutes in the bathroom".

Watching him as I spoke his face went from a look of confusion, to understanding and then humor. He chuckles and nips at my ear before letting go of me. As soon as I stood up he smacked my a**. I shake my head, as I walk away.

Going to the bathroom I quickly pee and then shower as fast as possible. As much as I want to enjoy it and take my time, I want a cup of coffee more. I am done in ten minutes. Going to the sink to brush my teeth I see an almost silver mark on my neck. It is where Jax marked me. I hadn't looked in a mirror until now so to say I'm startled is an understatement. I knew he marked me but I thought he meant like a hickie or a normal Bite mark. This is not what I expected.

Uncertainty filling me... I grab my favorite pair of black jeans and a flowy Purple camisole. Noticing Jax isn't in bed anymore I feel disappointed thinking he left without saying anything. Getting dressed quickly I head for the coffee pot. Jax is leaning against the counter in only his jeans. Can this man look good in anything? It should be a sin to look so yummy.

*and to think he is all ours* Kyra's voice says in my head.

Ignoring her for now, I walk over to Jax. He hands me a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Welcoming the warmth of the cup in my hands, I drink it down in just a few minutes. Leaning up to Jax, I touch my lips to his. A simple brush of our lips. Stepping back so he doesn't distract my thoughts, I pour myself another cup and walk over to the sectional.

He sits down next to me, putting his arm around my shoulders.

I stay quiet, yet I welcome his arm around me and lean into him placing my head on his shoulder. After a few minutes of comfortable silence his phone rings. He pulls it out of his pocket, without letting go of me and answers it.

"Hey Mom. Everything okay?"

"Yes sweetie, I just heard about you finding your Mate. I am so happy for you dear. We're having a small family dinner to celebrate tonight. Bring her with you. Your father and I can't wait to meet the future Luna".

"Who told you?... Actually don't answer that I already know. Listen mom....I'm not sure if she is ready to meet you ---"

"Nonsense son, you'll both be here tonight. Dinner is at 6. See you then and Jax dear??"

"Yes mother?" he says while looking at me.

"I love you and she is your mate which means I love her already too". She says and then hangs up.

Jax still looking at me puts his phone down and kisses me gently.

"Do you have any plans tonight baby?" he asks looking hopeful.

Pretending to think about it for a minute I answer with "Yes I do, I have a dinner to go to".

Looking crestfallen he says "Are you able to reschedule it at all? I know I am asking a lot".

Trying not to laugh I say "No I really can't....Because it's with you and your parents".

"Really Brenna? You'll go? My mom and dad can't wait to meet you. I know it's really fast but werewolves move fast with everything.. That's why I marked you. It's extremely difficult to not mark your fated mate as soon as you meet them." he says as he nuzzles my neck waiting for me to say something.

"Of course I will go but Under one condition?

"Anything for you baby" he says.

"Then tell me what your mom meant by me being the future Luna?" I ask.

"Well I am the alpha of my pack. The Luna is the alphas mate. We Lead the pack, protect them and guide them always. Basically I am the king and you my sweet Brenna are the queen".

Oh hell as if there weren't enough changes to my life? I am expected to lead a pack of werewolves when I didn't even know I was one until last night. This is definitely too much, too fast. Where are the brakes? Is there a pause button?

*Breathe Brenna. Everything will work out* Kyra says to me.

*I hope you're right. I don't think I can take any more bad sh*t in my life kyra*

*Itleast you won't be alone anymore though. It's my life too*
