The Son of Wolves (A Grey Wolves Series Fanfic)

Chapter 9

        Chapter 9

        Oh my flipping, freaking goodness. I pulled my hand away from the door and walked over to the edge of the balcony. I looked down and I saw Percy leaning against a tree. The moment my eyes locked with his, something clicked. I don't know what it was, but it felt like there was a cord or ribbion tying us together in my mind.  I instantly wanted to climb down the vines on the side of the balcony wall and run into his arms. But I couldn't. Not because I was afraid of him still being mad at me, but because I may fall if I hurry down the vines too fast.

        That's it. I've lost my mind, I thought.

        No you haven't, Luna.

        "Oh my goodness!" Just because I had a feeling that he would be able to communicate with me in mind did not even remotely prepare me for it actually happening. It caught me so off guard, that I lost my balance, and fell. I fell on my butt, in front of him. Great. 

        "Woah, Crystal?! Are you alright?" He pushed away from the tree and took a couple steps closer to the balcony. 

        I grabbed a hold of the railing and pulled myself up. I rested my elbows on the railing and looked down at him.

        "Yep. Never better!" I blew a hair out of my face that had come out of my ponytail when I fell.

        Percy just laughed and I couldn't help but smile back at him. But then I remembered the last time I saw him and my smile disappeared. Percy must have picked up on my thoughts because he stopped laughing and looked up at me with so many emotions showing in his eyes. "Crystal, about what happened-"

        "No, Percy." I held up a hand and he stopped talking. "I need to tell you something. The only reason why I backed away was because I was scared to belong in this world. I was scared that I could never go back to my old life. If I really did belong with you, I didn't know what I would do. Would I become your servant? Would I be below you and not your equal? Would I ever truly fit in this world with you? With all these thoughts swirling in my head, I thought I couldn't be with you, even though a huge part of me really wanted to. Today, I had an....experience." I tried to block Amber Eyes from my thoughts, but Percy saw him and what he did. His eyes immediately started to glow and he growled. Really loudly too, I might add. "Percy! Look, in that moment, I knew without a doubt that I wanted you. I knew that I did not want anyone esle to hold me, or kiss me besides you. And I hope that you can forgive me for making you feel that I didn't want you when in reality, I really do." I took a deep breath and looked down at him. 

        He looked up at me, with his green eyes glowing. He didn't talk, and just when I thought I couldn't handle the silence any longer, he ran over to the vines and climbed them in record time. He swung his legs over the railing and took two steps so that he was right in front of me. I had to look up at him to meet his eyes.

        "Crystal, I've wanted to be yours since I first saw you in the woods. When I saw you looking at me in terror because of my wolf, I wanted to do everything that I could to make you see me, me and not a big bad wolf. I've had a feeling that you were mine since I first layed my eyes on you, but since you were still new to my world, I took things slow, so you could get to know me and mostly, so I could get to know my Luna. I fell more in love with you every day. You acted so natural around me and I could truly be myself around you, not some son of wolves or prince. When you told me your birthday was the next day, my wolf and I wanted to kiss you so bad that I forgot that the mating signs still haven't shown and that it would most likely scare you. Which I did. And yes, I did feel like you were rejecting me and I lost control and I yelled at you to leave. Luna, I have been so ashamed of myslef all day and night because I scared you and screamed at you. I thought that I'd lost you forever. Even when my markings changed to signify that I had indeed found my mate, I thought I could never have you. It's your birthday so even if you didn't want to see me, I still had to give you your present." He pulled out a small box from his pocket and handed it to me.
