The Luna

Chapter 2. **ERIC'S POV**

”Eric…...Eric….. Come find me” The girl whispers softly. I knew i was dreaming again, but this was the first time she has talked in the entire year that I have been seeing her. “Where are you”? I asked, reaching my hand out to touch her beautiful face. She frowned. “I dont know” she whispered, sounding afraid. My hand was an inch from her face before i was awoke to a loud thud outside of my bedroom door, making me jump out of my sleep with a start. I quickly threw on a pair of boxers and cracked the door, ready to fight if I needed to. But it was only my father. “Sire” I said slowly. James looked concerned, and peeked over my shoulder into my room. I was not allowed to call him father, or by his name. I would not dare to disrespect him, not unless I wanted a lashing. I had taken a lashing from my father years ago, when i was much younger, and still have the scars to prove it. Werewolves normally heal very quickly, but not when silver is applied to the skin. “I heard you talking. Did you find your mate tonight, Son”? James asked. “No. I must have been talking in my sleep.” I replied to him. He pushes the door the rest of the way open and lets himself into my room. “Close the door” he orders. ‘Oh great’ i thought to myself, wincing at his booming voice.

My sire orders me to sit down and began to ask “Are you having strange dreams? I have been hearing you talking in the middle of the night for months now” I nodded to him. “Yes, i have. I know it sounds strange but i think it is my mate calling for me. She keeps asking for me to come find her.” I replied, half expecting him to call me stupid. My father instead has a look of surprise on his face. “Yes. It all makes sense now.” He says to me. “What do you mean?” I ask. “We have to find her. She must not currently be in a pack. She might not even know who or what she even is.” He replies to me, looking concerned again. Now i am confused. “How could she not know what she is? She had to have phased into her wolf form by now.” I say, but then shock overcomes me. Before my father has a chance to respond, I ask “ Are you saying that she isn't even 18 yet”? James' expression is blank when he replies “ That would be the only explanation. Which means that until she turns 18 she will not even know who you are to her. You're having very real visions; her inner wolf is coming to you because she isn't with her own kind.. She will not even have the drive to search for you right now. Which means that you will have to try and find her all on your own. We will not be able to have any pups from her until she is mature either, which puts me in a tough spot.” he said. Pups were one of the last things on my mind right now, even though I knew that once I found her it would be the only thing that my wolf side will think about. I also knew how important it was for my pack for me to reproduce, but right now I just wanted to find my mate and make sure she is safe. “Where do we start”? I ask. James begins to walk to the door. “First thing in the morning, you are heading into human territory. Pack a bag with enough clothes for a few weeks, and get some sleep. I will notify Jacob to accompany you on your journey. I will have Katherine do some research on adopted children throughout the country and see if any of their stories might match up. Did you get a good look of this girl in your dream”? He asks, turning back around to look at me. I nodded. “ She has long wavy chocolate brown hair with olive toned skin and electric blue eyes.” I answered my Sire. James nodded and left my bedroom, leaving me to pack and get some sleep. ‘Humans’, i thought to myself. She has to be living with humans. How did i not piece this together myself already? Usually if a werewolves’ parents die, other pack members will take the child in and raise it as their own. How she ended up in human hands I would love to know.
