LUNA
I was very touched by Chris' gesture. And it was so delicious. Nobody never brought me breakfast in bed. It was so sweet. And then what he did to me in the shower. I'm so grateful for my contraception pills because if I wasn't taking anything, I would be preggos by now.

We went to the kitchen, and I helped him do the dishes before we fixed a picnic to take to the lake.

There was a concrete picnic table built by the lake.
We set up the cooler with our picnic, and we stripped to jump into the lake.
The water was delicious. It was a very hot afternoon. The perfect weather to be at the lake.
We ate, made love, and swam until we fell asleep, laying on our picnic blanket.
The warm breeze, the birds chirping ,  and the smell of his cologne helped me fall asleep in a delightful manner. I wish every day was like this.

- ..na....LUNA...- I struggled to open my eyes. The sun was long gone, and the moon shone bright in the sky. Almost as bright as Chris ' eyes.
- What the fu..-
-Run- he said, and his bones started to break, one by one. I screamed. I screamed so loud my voice cracked.
-RUN- His growl shaked the ground.

I stood up, trying to catch my balance, and ran.
The twigs, leaves, and rocks were cutting my skin. I could feel a burning sensation on my feet.
It was really dark. I was trying to find my way back to the cabin, but I guessed I had taken the wrong path because I fell down a hill. My body rolled down the hill. And then I was out.

I woke up with a poundering headache. I could feel something wet, licking my feet,  but I couldn't open my eyes.
-Let me heal you, Luna-
I could hear Chris' voice in my head.
-Chris.- I tried to say, but my words dragged.
-It's ok. You are going to be ok. You took a nasty hit on your head. I healed the wound, but it will take you a few minutes to recover. -
The licking continued. I could feel every broken bone healing,  every cut, every scratch. It was healing from within. Like an energy current, traveling through my body. Healing me.
After a few minutes, the headache was gone. I sat up, opening up my eyes slowly.
-Please don't freak out.- The voice in my head again.
- How do you...Ahh!- I gasped. Taking both hands to my mouth.
- Please.- the voice said.
- It's me.- Did the 10 foot tall wolf just smile at me?
-Please let me explain it to you.- I just nodded.
- Hi, my name is Christopher, and I'm a werewolf.- He said with a shy laugh.
-  Our bloodline can be tracked to more than 200 years ago. We keep our power and transformations private. Only our closest family members or our mates are allowed to know our secret. And before you ask, yes, you are my mate, Luna.-
He didn't say anything after that. Just waited for my reaction.
- That is why you bit me? Why does it feel so good, so different when we are together?-
- Yes. When I told you that I love you, I meant it with every atom in my body, with every dot of starlight in my soul. I love you in every thought. I love you with every kiss, with every touch. It has always been you. -
- I love you, too.- the words spilled out of my mouth. Full of truth and love.
I stood up and placed my hand on his forehead. His fur was soft to the touch. My hand looked so tiny in comparison with his head, so I bowed my head, and placed my forehead where my hand was.
- My mate. My soulmate.- I felt the words deep in my own soul as I said them.
