Fae Princess for a Luna

To Meet My Protector and My True Mate

Chapter 3

Marynel's POV

Irish went in calling out Dave to get his attention.I followed her inside feeling the pull getting stronger and stronger as we neared Dave.

Dave I would like to ask you a favor for guarding Marynel for me.Irish spoke to him as we enter his tent,we found him packing some things needed for our travel.Kneeling at the ground his massive back is facing us rippling with flexing muscle as he moves.

While I stood at Irish back looking else where,as the loud thudding of my heart is deafening me.I don't understand why I felt uneasy all of a sudden. But what's bother me more is that when I look at my body it is wrapped with floating thin silver thread that has a life of its own.Moving around encircling me and then it went to Dave binding us together.

Ok give me a minute Knight ask me to fix this thing..... he stop talking and then he started to tilt his head up.Sniffing the air in a weird manner,then he hoist himself up.Dropping what ever is on his hand turning around slowly to look at us.

As his gaze lands on me,I saw his body tensed,his brown eyes were turning bright gold.He look daze and at the same time struggling to restrained him self.He close his eye and when he open it up,he look at us as it returned to its normal hazel brown color.Then he took a step forward not daring to blink an eye as if.I would disappear if he dares to.

I took a step back each time Dave attempt to take a step forward.

Irish just stood at her ground looking both of us confuse.

I maintain my eye contact with Dave as I heard a low growl.I don't know if I just imagined it, but I heard it coming out from Dave.

Mate!.....Dave uttered in a rasp voice,taking another step forward toward where I stood.I cringed and flinch as I felt fear when I notice that his getting close to me.

"Please don't be afraid of me,I won't hurt you."I heard him uttered as he tries to get his hold on me.He look's hurt as pain etched on his handsome face as I keep on moving away from him.

Dave....don't!,let me talk to her first,Irish holds on to his shoulder,stopping him from pursuing to get near me.

Dave throws me a pained look and nodded in understanding.With heavy heart,his back hunch as he drag him self out of the tent.Leaving us alone,then Irish went to my side and talk to me.

Marynel you don't need to fear Dave he is a good man,he will take good care of you.Knowing that he is your mate,I know that he won't allow harm to come to you.He will do everything to protect you.He is a werewolf and being what he is.I know that he will value you as a precious thing that he could ever have.Finding you is the greatest thing that ever happens to him.He is your other half Marynel and you,avoiding him caused him so much pain for he thought you were rejecting him.

Irish told me in a low voice to make me understand the situation we are in.Then she smile at me warmly trying to soothes the discomfort I felt.

Tears fell down on my face as I absorb every word she had told me.

I'm not rejecting him,its just that,I'm scared that if he know who I am.He might be the one to reject me.For him I am a daughter of a traitor.I told her in a pained voice.

Hey.....shush! Stop crying he may look tough and hulking were alpha,but deep with in, he got a big heart.He will be shock at first if he found out your true identity. But when he comes around I know he won't reject you.She tried to console me cupping my face with her soft warm hand.Wiping away my tears with her thumb.

When I manage to pull myself together I stood up and heave a deep sigh,grinning ruefully and told her.That I'm ready to talk to him.

Irish hoist her self up and walk to the door to take a peek outside.Then I heard her calling out for Dave,telling him something about someone named Slade.Which I can't clearly heard. Then I saw her shoulder shook as she tried to hold her laugh.

Then she turned to me grinning and told me that she will be taking her leave so that.I could talk with Dave privately.

Dave went inside as he saw me sitted my self picking up scattered things on the ground to tidy up his tent.He slowly kneel in front of me taking the rope from my hand.

Hi!.....I'm....I am Dave!he said introducing him self to me stammering his hand cold,looking nervous.

I smiled at him warmly in response, I'm Marynel.....

Marynel he repeated to utter my name then he look at me,offering his hand to me,to help me get up.I stood up with him assisting me.But as he got closer,I saw his face turns hard as he gritted his teeth when he saw the bruised and cuts on my face.Then he heave a long sigh,clenching and unclenching his fist to calm him self.Then there's that growl again but this time its much louder than the f irst one.

Who did that to you?He ask his voice rough and sounds dangerous.

I was taken aback,scared at his sudden change of mood,I tried to hold myself from crying as I clasp my hands on my mouth.As he notice me looking scared his face softened.

Don't be afraid of me please,Slade is my wolf he meant no harm.Its just that he doesn't like seeing you like that.He told me apologetically as he tries to reach for me.

I bit my lip and stood still at my ground eyeing him shyly in understanding.

Then in a swift movement he went near me and wrapped his arms around me.His big frame covers my whole body as he stood tall.Towering over my small frame,I did not flinch this time and keep my body still envelope within his warmth. I lean on his chest and close my eyes.Then I felt him place a kiss on top of my hair.Then I feel his chest move as he breath in.

"I promise you never again some heartless bastard will lay their hands on you."I would shred them to pieces first.Before they can even get near you,he told me,letting out a feral growl.I wound my arms around his waist and clung on him tightly to calm his wolf down.
