His Moon Kissed Luna

[6] Farewell

6.CHAPTER

A wolf and a girl are one and the same. When lonely, one cries to the moon, the other cries to the sky.

I looked at my mate with caution. There was uncertainty in the air and I was drenching myself in it. I knew my stupid friends would try to eavesdrop so I took Theon to my room upstairs, now I am more nervous than I was before.

My mate however was happily checking each and every inch of my room as if it's a closet to Narnia.

I kept fiddling with my fingers trying different ways of starting the conversation in my head, none of them seemed to work though. I blame my inability to think when my mate and I were in such a four walled confinement.

"Annalisa" he said leaning casually against the door. I was momentarily distracted by the way my name sounded when he said it. It felt amazing , I would blank out more often than not if that could get me to hear him call out my name.

"I ..um.." I stammered pathetically. Damn it Anna get your act together. "How do you know my name?" I asked confused. I don't remember introducing myself to him.

" you are the daughter of the ruthless, notorious and most infuriating old man I know. You also happen to be the only person I have ever heard of who has wolf blood but didn't shift into your wolf." he stated. Though he mentioned the 'not having a wolf' part with quite a disdain.

A pang of hurt hit me as I realised that he probably felt ashamed of me, I mean I know I was not tall , I didn't have killer legs, but Nina always told me I was really curvy so it made up for not having good height. What if she was lying to Make me feel better? Oh god I really was an ugly duckling wasn't I? A guy like Theon probably already has enough flings as it is. He is probably ashamed to even introduce me to his pack. Also not to mention he must be thinking that I didn't shift yet and I am not going to give him a reason to think otherwise. Now I really had second thoughts about going along with him to his pack.

"what did you want to talk about?" he asked raising his brows. "I just .. it's just that I want to stay here and I-"

"Not happening" he said through clenched teeth, giving me a cold look. I took a hesitant step backwards. His eyes were narrowed at me and his fists were clenched. Mate or not I wouldn't want to stay in the same room as him if he looks like he wants to kill somebody. "you cant expect me to leave everything I have ever loved here behind and come all the way with you" I exclaimed raising my voice a little.

He took a few steps casually and stopped at my study table. His gaze zeroed in on the photo frame. He lifted it off my table and scrutinized it carefully. It was picture of chase, Zach , Nina and me when we went to a local pub on my sixteenth birthday. "everything you love?" he questioned me. His voice was calm, but I had a feeling that a silent storm was brewing underneath that calm façade. I followed his gaze to see that he was now openly glaring at the part of the photo where chase threw his arm around me and I was leaning my head on his shoulder. "okay um .not love.." I tried to cover up pathetically.

Suddenly he dropped the frame carelessly onto the table and with an inhuman speed that I didn't see coming he had me pinned to the wall. My body was pressed up against his and a million sparks and fireworks were going off in my head with the skin to skin contact.

"it's that pup isn't it?" he demanded holding both of my wrists in a death grip.

"What?" I asked struggling against his hold. "don't play dumb. You love him don't you?" he asked, his eyes blazed black and I gulped. Uh huh his wolf is out. "of course not" I exclaimed. "he is like a brother to me" I whisper yelled trying to release my wrists from his hold.

He took a deep breath and loosened his hold on my wrists. "You cant expect me to let you stay here, you need to be my pack's Luna." he said lifting my chin up and fixing me with his intense gaze. "My Luna" he whispered lowering his voice. Damn, I was smouldered by his gaze, I was sure if he kept his hands on me for another minute I would be a puddle on the floor.

"um..I have a few conditions" I said moving further into the wall. The problem wasn't that I didn't like his touch , it was the exact opposite. I liked it way too much, I wanted to jump on him and never let go. The discussion was finally going where wanted it to and I couldn't get distracted. He wasn't exactly innocent either, he knew the effect he had on me.

He threw a sexy smirk at me and leaned in closer, so close that our noses were touching. I was breathing heavily, with his scent driving me crazy and I clenched my fists to keep both my wolf and my actions under control.

"I want to be able to visit my pack whenever I want" I stated, as I placed my still clenched fists on his chest and tried to push him a little backwards.

He growled lowly, "I don't know if you want to learn this the easy way or the hard way but you belong to my pack now. This wont be your home once we cross the border". After a arguing back and forth for a couple of minutes we settled that I was indeed going to go live with him in his pack.

A few hours later, after I packed my essentials- I didn't pack all of my clothes since Theon assured we would go shopping- and convinced my friends and family that I would come visit often, my dad let me go. Of course, he grumbled the whole time and Zach being an ass stormed out of the house shaking in anger.

"Take care of those idiots for me", I told Nina as I hugged her.

She nodded her head, slightly biting her lip to prevent herself from crying.

My eyes were glossy too, but I knew if I start crying I wouldn't be able to stop.

I quickly diverted my attention to my dad who was standing their with a very grim face. He hugged me and patted my head, a few tears escaped my eyes.

"Pumpkin, if he ever tries to hurt you, you know where to find me" my dad said shooting a glare at Theon. My dad took my hand in his and twirled the silver bracelet on my wrist with his fingers giving me a look. I knew what it meant, I wasn't supposed to disclose who I was at all costs, at least until we were sure of what powers the moon kissed wolf entails.

I nodded my head smiling a little. "where are Zach and Chase?" I asked my dad. I really didn't want to leave before saying goodbye to them.

"Chase went after Zach when he left the house earlier. They have blocked their mind links" Donavan answered with a frown and a look of disapproval.

I heaved a sigh of disappointment. I knew they were upset but not staying here while I left the pack is taking it too far.

"We should get going", my mate said in a gruff voice folding his arms against his chest.

I nodded meekly giving everyone a final wave of good bye as I made my way towards his car.
