Chapter Twenty

My face flushed, God this looks bad. Lucian didnt know Luke was like my brother. His eyes were a dangerous shade of black.  His fists were clenched and his breath was coming in short angry bursts.

I quickly sat up straighter,  "It's not what you think," I said.

He raised one dark brown, "Oh? Well then my dear Annora, explain." His voice was so deadly calm it made a shiver run down my spine.

I closed my eyes and attempted to calm my nervous heart. Lucian stood waiting for my reply.

"Luke is like my brother,"

"Nothing about what I saw was brotherly," he said harshly.

I got up from the bed and made my way to Lucian cautiously. He looked deadly but I knew deep down he wouldn't hurt me. I timidly reached out with my hand, searching his face to gouge his reaction. When he made no move to stop me, I placed my hand on his warm shoulder.

He was gazing down at me seeming slightly confused but I realized my touch did indeed begin to calm him. I began to run my hand up and down his arm, "Please believe me Lucian," I said in a mere whisper.

"I know it looked bad but Luke is my brother, I was just explaining to him that I had found my mate and he was upset."

"He's your brother?" he asked

"Not by blood but yes he is. Luke has taken care of me for along time. If it wasn't for him I wouldnt be standing here now," I explained.

Lucian looked at me questionably for a moment.

"My wolf doesnt like you near other males." he stated.

"I know, Lucian."

He sighed and pulled me closer to him, resting his face in my hair.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, bringing us closer together.

"Where are they?" I asked. I didnt want to believe they were hurt in anyway.

Lucian stiffened at my question causing me to step back.

"I had them taken back to Red Fang, they will be held until I return."

"Held? Held where?" I demanded.

"In the pack prison," he sated seeming unconcerned. 

"What?!"

They were locked in cells? In Red Fang territory? If they were there why were we here?

"I don't understand?  Why?" I asked.

"Are you going to kill them?" I demanded in a whisper.

"They attacked my pack." was all he said, giving an annoying shrug of his shoulders as if the lives of my family were so unimportant. 

Anger raged through me, "Take me to them," I demanded. "I want to see my brothers."

Lucians eyes harded. "I can't do that," he growled.

"Why not?!" I yelled through clenched teeth.

Lucian stormed to me, his eyes pitch black.  He grapped my shoulders and thrust me into the wall behind him. The abrupt action suprised me and I let out a small yelp.

Lucian lowered his head to mine, his hot breath hitting my face.

"You will not step foot on Red Fang territory until that is gone!" he growled loudly, thrusting back my hair to gesture to the claim on my neck.

"In fact," he said lowly. "you will not leave this room until we are mated and the only mark you bare is MINE!"

I felt my heart shoot to my throat.

Mate?

Oh. My . God

  *************************

I looked up into my mates dark eyes. To say his words unnerved me was an understatement.  Id never even kissed a boy!

I swollowed loudly and let out a shaky breath causing Lucian to growl and crush me to his chest. 

"You are Mine!" he whispered angriy in my ear.

Lucian picked me up then, I was forced to wrap my legs around his waist to steady myself. The movement brought us face to face. I knew he was furious and I was scared of what was to come but I knew damn well I wasn't leaving this room unmated. Though the idea of being that close to my mate excited me and my wolf, the thought also scared the crap out of me. I had no idea what to expect. Would it hurt? Would I enjoy it? I had no idea!

Lucian brought me to the bed and dropped me down. His hot body covered mine a second later.

"I want you Annora. I want you now," he said before his lips claimed mine.

His lips were so much softer than I imagined and though his movements were rough his kiss was suprisingly gently. It took me a moment to get over the shock of finally kissing my mate, but after a few seconds my tense muscles relaxed and I melted into him with a moan. Sparks were shooting through my body, building low in my stomach. 

I kissed him back, earning me a growl of approval.

When he bit playfully into my bottom lip I let out a suprised gasp which he smothered with his mouth. His tongue darted into my mouth, the sensation making my toes curl and my hips to rise.

When my hips pressed against his hardness, he growled and quickly wrapped an arm under my waist to hold him to me tighter. I moaned my appreciation and grapped fists full of his hair angling his mouth harder against mine before gaining the courage to meet his tongue with mine.

The moment our tongues touched I thought I was going to die from happiness. I'd never expected a kiss to feel like this. The warmth spreading through me, the sparks, it was electrifying. 

When Lucian broke the kiss, I whined and pouted my lip to show my disagreement at ending possibly the best moment of my life.

Lucian smirked and ripped his shirt off in one swift movement. Baring his glorious chest to me. I soaked in the sight of my half dressed mate. Golden skin covering solid layers of muscles. He had the kind of body men would kill for and all I could think was... MINE.

I attempted to sit up but Lucian pushed me back down on the bed.

"I need you to tell me Annora," he said huskily.

"Tell me you want this. That you accept me."

I knew this was an important question and that the answer would change me forever. I closed my eyes and tried to ignore desires hold. I needed to concentrate. If I said yes I was accepting him as my mate and my position as Luna that would likely lead to Alpha Robert finding me. But if I said no, I would lose Lucian when I had waited so long to find him. I had run away with hopes of finding my mate. The one that could protect me. Was Lucian that man? The fates said yes, so what do I choose?

I opened my eyes again to stare into his beautiful golden eyes and smiled. I needed to trust. The fates wouldn't have made us mates if it wasn't meant to be. I pushed my worry aside, " Yes," I whispered.  "I want you Lucian."

Lucian let out a breath of relief and crushed his lips back to mine.

"Mine," he whispered. "Mine."

I just prayed to the wolf spirits I had made the right choice.

******** Next update is planned for Valentines Day!!!  What do you think? Did Annora make the right choice?  How will Lucian react to her past when she tells him? Most importantly. ..  Will Annora be able to save the boys who are now locked in the bowls of Red fangs pack prison??
