The Lunar Saga: Crescent Moon (Book 1)

Chapter 22: Soft Rain

Kris’s POV

The sun came out from behind the rain. La-Push and Forks stood alone in a land of wolves and vampires. This was the only town left standing at peace. At night, Forks gave off a radioactive glow which could be seen for miles

If I had my ways, I would spend the majority of my time with Edward. The last drop of rain fell on my face as I looked beyond the lands, high up in the mountain with Leah.

We both looked beyond the lands in silence, filling the soft morning air, scatterings it’s brightness in our wolf forms.

Until this day, how well the wolves keep its peace with The Cullens? I have no idea how the imprint works but being with Edward that night felt like fallen sparks of lights turned into lush of fire. The heat of my lips gently touched his iced, cold lips as if two elements were meant to be.

Our first kiss beneath the full moon. For some strange reason, I felt the spirit of the full moon by my side, watching over me as the day I first formed into this world. The full moon gave me strength that night, as every aspect was planned for us to be.

The thought about him made my wolf whimpered. She couldn’t stand being away. Every hour, every minute, every second my heart ached for him.

What was wrong with me? His a vampire! a blood sucking vampire who murders humans!…. No not him…not Edward…

My wolf hated the fact of thinking wrongly of him. The human side of me was being realistic but how can I? If I live in a world with creatures, include being one as well.

Leah showed sincere as she sat close to me. She laid her head on my shoulders. The side of her caring showed great affections towards us wolves, well…towards me that is. We were the only two females in the pack. I hoped someday she’ll fine her mate…or her mate fines her.

However, the thought about her hating The Cullen family still troubled me. I couldn’t stop thinking about him nor that night…nor that kiss…

I couldn’t tell Leah about us. I don’t care if she tells the pack, but I know Leah well enough, she’ll be furious…and it won’t be me who she’ll attack first. The thought about Leah hurting Edward made my wolf angered.

Shh..I told myself. Calm down. That won’t happened, I won’t let it happened. I know my purpose, to protect what is important to me.

I laid my chin on her head as the grey clouds began to darken. I looked up into the skies, listening carefully, it was coming…it was near and with a clash lighten we headed back home.

A week has passed; I’ve been going with Conner to school as usual as I kept my distance from Edward. Afterwards, we would spend each second while the pack thought I was with Conner.

  We found a place where no human would reach, no wolf was bound to entire Forks, besides me, and no vampire would suspect.

We lay beneath the forest as little blocks of sunlight, quiet but not eerie, sleepy with just a few awaking sounds, a little foggy as it did not bothered us...I looked into his eyes as he looked into mine.

“How long have you lived?” I asked him

“Well technically, I’m not alive” as he chuckled

“Fine, how old are you?” as I smiled softly

“hmm…I will always be 17 forever. I was born on June 20th 1901 in Chicago, Illinois.” He said

I looked down…but I was curious to ask… “When were you bitten?”

“Of course you would asked that” as he did his crooked smile “I was nearly at the end of my death in 1918, I was ill with Spanish Influenza as both my parents died from it. That’s when Carlisle toke me in.”
