The Lycan Pack's Luna

Chapter 26

Cassandra's POV

Okay, let's put it out there, the heat shit hurt. Will I go through it again? Probably not. Would I use inspiration from it as future torture technique? Definitely yes, but that's not the point.I wanted Alec to mark, I did. But not while I was in heat and due to its influence on both of us, rather when we both were ready for it. When we went downstairs for breakfast, (even though Alec said we should eat in the room and sleep in) I was stunned to say the least.

Sophie and Damon were sitting in the living room, with Sophie on Damon's lap. Her head on his shoulder, his arms around her both watching some show playing on the Tv in-front of them. A surprised gasp escaped me and when they both turned around to see me, with her eyes wide open and jaw probably on the ground, quickly standing them they faced me with smiles on their faces. Well, Damon was grinning and Sophie had a shy smile but same thing.

"Well, looks like your advice worked Cass. All it took was the heat process to make Sophie accept me. Even though it hurt like a bitch, it was worth it in the end," Damon intertwined his hands with Sophie and placed a kiss on the side of her bead while she blushed. I almost cooed at the sight before me.

This ship has sailed.

"You guys! I'm so happy for you-" I ran forward engulfing both of them in a big bear hug. "I'll be very happy to be the godmother of your child," I whispered, which earned a groan from Damon and light laugh from Sophie. Pulling away I looked back at my mate to see him shaking his head at me with a smile on his face.

"My heartiest congratulations to you both. Commander, we'll have to go through the transfer papers-" I groaned which stopped Alec mid sentence and he looked at me with his eye-brow raised in question. I gave him a pointed look and turned to the couple.

"Seeing all my mate can think about right now is work, I'll have to take away Sophie for details. You boys can continue with the legal stuff. Bye!" Pulling Sophie away before she can react, I moved towards the kitchen with her trailing behind me. Once we settle on the kitchen chairs and I had requested for my daily dose of pancakes, I turned towards Sophie unable to keep my excitement at bay.

"Well? What happened? When did Damon arrive at the palace? Spill the tea, sister." I joined my hands in anticipation turning my full attention towards her. Wait, this is their personal matter. What if she isn't comfortable sharing it with me?

" I'm sorry, IF you're comfortable in sharing it with me of course. I didn't stop to think about your feelings, I'm so sorry. I'm not forcing you or anything, it's perfectly fine if you don't want to spill the tea, I–" Sophie's arms coming around me stopped my rambling. Patting my back she pulled away and smiled at me.

"Relax. We're friends, right?" I nodded at her question before she continued, " When you screamed I was in my office, your scream got me up running towards you when the heat hit me. I fell on my knees because of the sudden impact to my abdomen. I was already away from my mate and not having him with me increased the extent of the pain. Alexander was running towards your office when he saw me on the ground barely holding myself together, he mind-linked Damon to come and in matter of seconds called mated female guards to help me. They took me to my room, locking the door. They moved towards the bathroom placed me in the tub, filled with ice cold water to cool down my temperature. It took Damon almost an hour to reach here. Just when he entered my room his scent hit with full force and on instinct I got up and pulled him to me. I felt complete you know? like–"

"You were meant to stay in his arms forever. Like you found your missing puzzle piece." I completed her sentence, remembering the same feeling I felt when I was in Alec's arms.
