Chapter 17- The Announcement

I sat staring at the scrambled eggs and toast, my eyes dare not move from my plate. My legs were shaking uncontrollably. Literally. I swear I tried to stop but it wasn't stopping. I was nervous; today was the announcement. I was going to be a Luna today, in a few hours in fact. And I think that was freaking me the hell out.

"Babe, are you okay?" Matt spoke next to me. I knew he and Jason sat staring at me while May made breakfast. They wanted to know what was wrong with me but I couldn't answer. I had no idea why.

"Okay that's it. Get up, we're going to the pack doctor" Matt said beginning to get down from his stool at the counter sounding a bit annoyed. My head darted to him.

"What?" That was the first thing that came out.

"Oh now you're talking?" he was a lot more annoyed now "How about you tell me what the hell's wrong?" his tone just made me angry. What was happening?

I stood there and stared at him. Just stared.

"How about you don't talk to me like that?" I backfired, anger lacing every word. At the corner of my eye, I saw Jason froze and May's attention was now fully on us.

Matt's eyes turned several shades darker and that's when I realized what I said. He was an Alpha, he wasn't going to tolerate anybody speaking to him like that. I basically said 'kill me'. My anger faded away and I came off my stool and stood right in front of him, looking at him directly in his eyes so he could see I was sorry.

"Matt..." I trailed off and before I could even say anything else he grabbed my hand and stomped off upstairs, dragging me behind him and ignoring Jason's and May's calls. He opened my room door, marched in, slammed it back shut and pushed me against it with his two hands on either side of my head. Our noses were two centimetres apart and I stared at his eyes, realizing that they were his normal blue again. Great, he wasn't that mad again.

"You're kinda really frustrating" Matt whispered. Well I wasn't expecting that.

"Tell me what's wrong Lilly" He whispered again resting his forehead on mine. "Please" he almost begged. Well this side to an Alpha was weird but I was more focused on what he asked. I didn't want to tell him I was nervous, he would take it as an insult.

He then suddenly pulled away and held my hands in his.

"Do you not want to be my Luna?" Matt asked softly. My eyes widened at his question for some reason.

He pulled away instantly after my reaction.

"You don't want to be my Luna" It was a statement this time as he ran his hand through his hair. He was frustrated.

"No. No Matt. It's not that. I do want to be your Luna. Well.. No. I-" I fumbled with words to explain to him when a pain hit my chest. I stopped and realised that Matt thought I didn't want to be his mate. He was looking so broken.

I breathed.

"I want to be your mate too Matt, stop being like that, it hurts" I said rubbing my chest. It gradually started to ease up as Matt walked back towards me.

"Then what is it?" he questioned again.

"I'm nervous. I'm not a werewolf, how am I supposed to be a Luna for a pack? Plus I feel like something bad is going to happen." I finally told him and he laughed. Yes, laughed. Why does this man always laugh at me in serious situations?

I gave him a questioning look. He was laughing at me.

"Only you would be so concerned for everything" he held my hands "You have nothing to worry about. Everyone is going to love you." He kissed my lips and smiled. "And I'll be at your side all the time, nothing bad is going to happen baby" He kissed me again but then time he continued until a knock interrupted us.
