Becoming a Luna Chapter 10: Human or Wolf
*Jo's POV*I smiled as I received Nikko's response to my good morning texts, and laid back down on my bed and covered my face. Then I sighed. If I was honest with myself, I knew that I was always going to say yes to Nikko, so now, I just had to work on the part that I was putting off…talking to my mom.I sat back up and kicked my blankets off. It was Monday, which meant I would have to wait for my mom to get off work before I could talk to her. But I was too wired to sit still, so I decided to go for a run.I threw on a pair of workout shorts, a sports bra, and a baggie zip up hoodie. Walking into the bathroom, I grabbed a hair tie and threw my hair up into a ponytail. Then, before I could second-guess myself, I grabbed my phone and snapped a picture of myself and sent it to Nikko with a text.'Here is a picture to help you with missing me- don't want you to forget what I look like.' Then I added a winky face.My headphones were still in my room, so I went back to grab them and th
Becoming a Luna Chapter 11: Hidden Information Revealed
*Jo's POV*I gasped and thought, "My wolf, I really have a wolf?""Yes," Cressa said, laughing softly."How is this possible?" I thought again, and this time there was a small pause before she answered."I am still very weak—hard to talk—being with mate—making me stronger," she pieced together."I understand, please rest as much as you need," I told her. "It is just nice to know you are here and to know your name.""Mom!" I exclaimed, speaking out loud again. "I can hear her, I can hear my wolf!""If you can hear her, then that must mean that she is powerful," my mom said. I remembered what Nikko had said about how strong wolf spirits presented with their own identities."I don't think she is very powerful right now. She said that she is pretty weak, and that the only thing that is making her stronger is being near our mate…" I looked at my mom and blushed. "Which apparently you already know about.""There is no need to be embarrassed, honey. It's not something you can control
Becoming a Luna Chapter 12: Tour of the Pack
*Jo POV*After a quick goodbye with my mom, and a promise to call her as soon as I got settled, I found myself walking with Nikko to his car. He insisted on taking all of the bags out while I was talking to my mother, so we just walked hand in hand. He took a step ahead of me and opened the front passenger door, stepping aside for me to get in."Not in the back seat today?" I asked, looking inside, "Where is Byron?""It's just us today," he said and shut the door, then walked across to get in the driver's seat. "I had Byron stay behind, since I wasn't originally planning on picking you up, and I wasn't sure how long I would be. I don't like to leave the pack without someone to lead for too long."He put the car in drive, and then brought his hand over to rest on my leg. The tingles from his touch were starting to feel normal, but I still craved them when they were missing. He rolled the hand over and I placed mine in his, and he closed his fingers around it."Need to stop anywhere
Becoming a Luna Chapter 13: Doing the Right Thing
*Nikko's POV*I had to convince myself for minutes to pull myself away from Jo, but I knew it had to be done. If I stayed there much longer I wouldn't be able to get myself to leave. So, I dropped my arms and took a couple of steps back, trying to avoid the disappointed look on her face."Well, I guess I should be getting back to work, so that way you can get settled in," I told her. "Everything has been stocked and cleaned in the cabin, but if you think of anything we missed, or anything that you might need, then just shoot me a text or call me.""I can do that," she said with a smile.I may have only known her for a little while, but something (and maybe it was the mate bond) was telling me that the smile wasn't 100% genuine. However, I marked it up to her being sad that I was leaving and brushed it off."I'll see you soon, alright?""Do you know when, for sure?" she asked back."No. I still have a few things I need to catch up on tonight, but I will come and see you tomorrow
Becoming a Luna Chapter 14: Adjusting
*Jo's POV*With Nikko gone, it suddenly felt very quiet in this little cabin. I looked around the room and decided to take a small tour of the house before I began to unpack. There was a decent closet on one corner of the room, and I opened to see that half of it had been cleared out for my stuff, and the other half was full of what I assumed to be Nikko's clothes.I grabbed one of the shirts and smelled it. It didn't smell like Nikko since it was clean, but it definitely looked like it would fit him. I walked out of the room and passed the small dresser to the door on the other side of the space.Through the door was a large bathroom, with a soaking tub and a huge glass shower. There was another door straight across, so I opened that one as well and found that it led to another bedroom.This bedroom was decorated a lot more feminine, which made me curious, so I looked around. I finally found a clue on the wall in the form of a picture. There was a young Nikko, plain and clear, and
Becoming a Luna Chapter 15: Midnight Comfort
*Jo's POV*At some point in my sobs, I must have fallen asleep, because I suddenly woke up as I felt something crawling towards me on the bed. Half asleep, and without hesitation, I swung my arm behind me and felt my hand connect with something hard.I heard a grunt from behind me as the pain in my hand jolted me awake, and I sat up, ready to defend myself more if need be. The room was still pitch black, making it hard to see anything in the room. But as I looked at the dark space laying on the bed, I suddenly could smell evergreen and lavender and gasped."Nikko?" I whispered."Yes, Jo," he whispered back.And I couldn't help it. As soon as I heard his voice, I started crying again. Before I could say anything else, Nikko sat up on the bed and pulled me into his arms, trying to soothe me. He kept saying my name over and over again as he stroked my hair, and we sat there like that for minutes."How are you here?" I asked with quick shallow breaths in between my words; I was never
Becoming a Luna Chapter 16: Reasoning
*Nikko's POV*I was already sitting in the office when I heard my phone buzz and saw Jo's message. Despite my conflicting feelings, I still couldn't help but smile. However, I set my phone back down on the desk, feeling too guilty to reply.I had spent the night in bed with this girl, and I was falling in love with her, but I still couldn't see myself making her Luna. And based on how she was last night, I knew this revelation would crush her when I finally revealed it.It had been harder than I had imagined to see her laying there crying…and over me. I felt like a piece of sh*t. Maybe it had been a mistake to have her come before I had made my choice, but it had been so hard to be away from her.My head hit the back of my tall black chair as I turned to stare out the windows. I was exhausted. Most of the night was spent just watching Jo and thinking of any other possible solutions to my problem. But I hadn't come up with any."You could just make her Luna," Ash said. "Why are you
Becoming a Luna Chapter 17: Training the Wolf
*Jo's POV*I woke up in the morning and was disappointed to find an empty bed next to me. But laying in the spot where Nikko had been was a little piece of paper with his neat scribble on it.'Sorry, duty calls. See you soon--Nikko'I smiled and grabbed my phone from the nightstand and opened up my messages. There was one from my mom, but I wasn't looking for her name right now.'Good morning, handsome…I missed you in my bed this morning…can't wait to see you…hope you are thinking of me…'After sending the message, I looked back at the piece of paper. The note seemed sweet."That's not good enough for us," Cressa announced in my head louder than she had ever been. "He could have easily waited for us to wake up, or he could have woken us up to at least tell us bye.""I agree with you, but it's still early," I said. "Plus, being close to him seems to be making you stronger.""And? Something doesn't feel right," she said. "He kept avoiding your questions.""He said we would talk

*Jo's POV**ONE MONTH LATER*"Where are you taking me?" I asked with a giggle as his hands covered my eyes, blinding me."Well, if I told you, then it wouldn't be a surprise would it?" Nikko asked back with a laugh.It had been almost a month since our little 'rogue' battle and everything was just starting to settle into place. The first couple weeks had been spent going through all of the wolves that had pledged their loyalty to our pack and investigating each of them before either admitting them to the pack or banishing them.Then, of course, there had been Frilla's trial. It lasted much longer than expected, but it was mostly because of all the new information that had crept up. It turned out that she had been spying on a few different packs for years, so even her father couldn't save her from punishment at that point.I was the one who had given them the idea for her punishment. It was decided that since she had done all of these acts in a hope to achieve Luna, that she would
Becoming a Luna Chapter 49: Mate Mistake
*Jo's POV*I stared as Frilla's black wolf slowly inched towards me. Cressa was itching to get out, but I convinced her that we should wait a minute longer. The surprise attack could be useful here, just as it was before.Watching her wolf move was like watching water move; she flowed smoothly and effortlessly. I knew now why she was the best female wolf fighter in the pack. Agility could beat strength 9 times out of 10. You can't kill something you can't catch.The purple faced Sean backed up as she got closer, and he smiled. He was confident that Frilla was going to end me as well. I could tell in the relaxed stance of his body.I continued to stand there, watching her closely as she prowled around me. The wolves from outside were all starting to gather around now, to see what all of the commotion was about. Some of them lost color in their face as they saw me, and I recognized them as pack members.Frilla used my distraction to her advantage and swiped a paw out at me. I yelled
Becoming a Luna Chapter 48: Plan to Escape
*Jo's POV*I walked over to the poor excuse for a bed and laid down, putting my face into the pillow. I hadn't seen any cameras around the room, but I figured it was better safe than sorry. I didn't want to make them suspicious now, right as I was beginning to plan an escape.Once I was sure my face was covered, I reached out with my mind."Nikko?" I called out."Jo!" he cried out almost instantly.I sighed in relief and nearly cried at hearing his voice. I had been trying to stay strong, but that didn't mean I didn't miss him like crazy. His voice had sounded so pained, and I regretted not reaching out to him first thing this morning."Yes, it's me," I replied as soon as I could get my thoughts together. "It's me.""Where are you? Are you hurt? I felt pain a few minutes ago, are they hurting you? I will kill them!" Nikko raged on and I could feel Ash reach out to Cressa."I'm not hurt, that was just Frilla." He started to interject, but I cut him off. "I'm fine. You have to li
Becoming a Luna Chapter 47: Out of Control
*Nikko's POV*Byron and Ava returned to the packhouse from the cabin and the creek and I showed them the note from Frilla that I had found. Byron let out a ferocious growl, but I knew that he had grown close with Jo while training her the last couple weeks, so I understood where he was coming from.Ash was still growling inside of my head, but I was trying to block him out and focus on what to do.Jo. I need to save Jo."Did you guys find anything that could help?" I asked desperately.Byron handed me the binder with Jo's information in it, and Ava pulled out the maps and laid them over my desk."It did look like there was a vehicle involved, but it stopped making tracks once it hit the highway. So, I can't be certain of which direction it headed." Ava said, pointing to the map as she spoke. "I can't tell how far away they would be either. Though it did look like a large van, and with limited gas stations in this part of the mountains, I am hoping that it's not too far."I looke
Becoming a Luna Chapter 46: Gathering Intel
*Jo's POV*When I woke up the second time, I felt a million times better. The ache in my head had gone, and the small bit of food had soothed my stomach. I mean, it still wasn't perfect, but prisoners can't be choosers."You seem a little too happy for someone who is locked in a room," Cressa's clear voice spoke into my mind."Cressa!" I replied, a sense of relief washing over me. "I can hear you again.""Yes, there must have been wolfsbane mixed into those drugs they knocked us out with, because I felt like I was in a coma. I could hear what was happening around me, but had no interaction whatsoever. And I still don't feel 100%.""Well, I'm just glad you're back." I stared around the room so she could see what we were dealing with. "I was about to go crazy and start talking to myself in here.""Understandable," she mumbled in disgust.The door started to open and I cowered against the wall. I explained to Cressa about my plan to embrace and encourage the idea that these captors
Becoming a Luna Chapter 45: The Rogue Truth
*Nikko's POV*"Nikko, wake up!"I started as I felt Byron roughly shaking my shoulders. I sat up quickly, disoriented. I was still laying in my bed in the cabin."What is it? What's going on?" I instantly noticed what was missing. "Where is Jo?""I don't know," Byron admitted, and I instantly focused."What do you mean you don't know?" I asked quietly. "She was just here."It was near dark outside of the window now, I must have been asleep for a couple of hours."No. When she mind-linked me, she said she was going out to go for a swim in the creek, but asked if I could bring the car for you two to get back to the packhouse. She also asked me to grab the binder about her family history for her, because she forgot it," Byron explained rapidly."Oh, alright," I said. I wish she would have told me, but there was nothing wrong with that."No, you don't understand, Nikko!" Byron still sounded frantic, which got me worked up again. "I was still busy getting those two rogue bodies tak
Becoming a Luna Chapter 44: Behind Enemy Lines
*Jo's POV*I groaned as I started to come to, blinking my eyes a bunch to take in the bright white room. My head pounded as I sat up, so I tried to move more slowly. I was sitting in an average sized room, with just a bed frame, a mattress, a small table, and a single chair.There wasn't a single window in the room, so I had no way of telling what time it was.The entire room was white though. White tile, white walls, white sheets, white table. The only thing that wasn't white was the metal door that was on the opposite wall of the bed. My head throbbed again. Man what was in that rag?Suddenly the events before came flooding back to me. I stood up quickly, earning myself another throb through my head, and walked to the door. I turned the handle, but it was locked. Worth a try at least.I stood there in silence, wondering what I should do. Silence…Cressa!I tried to talk to her, but my head throbbed worse than ever, making my vision spot, so I stopped. Whatever that Frilla b*tc
Becoming a Luna Chapter 43: Cool Down
*Jo's POV*I jumped off the bed as I felt like I was about to lose control. I took a deep breath as I stood there and felt the urge to shift diminish slightly, but my body was still radiating energy. Nikko snored in the background, so exhausted from the day's activities that he hadn't noticed me move."Maybe it would help if we worked some of it out," Cressa suggested, feeling just as antsy."Anything's worth a shot."I walked into the closet and found a loose summer dress to throw on. The dress would be perfect for if I chose to shift. Easy to take off and put on. And my skin was on fire, so I wasn't worried about getting cold. Not even bothering to put on shoes, either, I walked out of the cabin.The fresh air helped take the edge off, but it was still there. After a seconds deliberation, I turned and walked down the trail that would lead me to the creek. The cold water would help clear my head as well.I took off at a brisk pace. Cressa wanted me to shift, but I wasn't sure if
Becoming a Luna Chapter 42: Complete Mates
*Jo's POV*Nikko began to crawl up the bed to me on his hands and knees. He stopped, grabbed my ankles and spread them wide. Then he crawled up in between the legs and sat up, placing his member at my entrance. I stared at him, tingling all over, even without his hands on me."I need you," he said huskily. "I need to be inside you."I gave a small nod, and he thrust himself into me hard. A scream of pleasure erupted out of my mouth as I clenched the sheets in my hands and arched into him. He pulled out and thrust back in, just as hard and I gasped.Nikko had never been this rough with me. He had always been in control. But he kept thrusting into me harder and harder as he sat there and looked down at me. G*d it felt good.Then he ripped himself out, and I felt empty. He grabbed my ankles and twisted them, causing me to roll onto my stomach. I used my hands to roll my shoulders over as Nikko gripped my hip hard and pulled them up.I looked back over my shoulder at him just in time
