"Stefan!!!" "Yes, don't you want to see me here?" He asked as he walked slowly into the chamber, now I get the picture of Leonid's anger, he must have been informed that Stefan was back. "Of course, I want you here." I ran to him and hugged him, he moved his hand and covered my back with his strong arm. "You should go have your bath, your body reeks of some strange smell, covering those sweet scents of yours, that I want to drown myself every day." I brushed as I pulled from him, he was acting different from Stefan, I knew but I loved this new Stefan. "I will have my bath now," I said running into the washroom, the lady earlier had prepared the hot bath for me. I needed to soak myself in it, I can't believe that I had my last bath three days back. I am excited that Stefan is back and I am happy to have him back, I have no idea, if he still wants me to be his Luna, the truth is, whatever he wants to do right now, is none of my business, Stefan is all I wanted at this point. He was
Dad's face goes sour as he stares at the paper in his hand that contains the decision of the alpha, I have no idea what he wrote in there but I think it didn't go well with Father. The joy he had at first, had died off, rapidly.Maybe, I wasn't the one that Stefan picked as his Luna. I frown, I know he wasn't going to pick me but the truth is, I hope he did. "Go on, read the announcement." Uncle Bob urges my father, Uncle Bob, the old alpha's elder brother never loves my father, but just pretends all this time, to get closer to the late alpha, his younger brother. "The pack will have a new beta and a gamma." Everyone roared, and some were indirectly mocking my father, while others sympathized with my father's pain, although dad has become so proud since he was chosen by the late alpha, he is still a good man. I felt bad for my father as he took the name of the new beta. "Beta Rex." Everyone applauded him, and the young man walked into the hall, he was also as handsome as Stefan, his
The light came up, only for me to come face to face with Leonid. Father, what is this? "Daughter, you know I love you, I want you to be happy, and I have watched you wish that the moon goddess grant you a mate, one that loves you, one that treats you equally, one that, could never hurt you, when I find out that, prince Leonid is your mate, I was happy that your wish can finally be granted by the moon goddess, I know prince Leonid will treat you right and give you all the love that, you ever wish for, you could get it, if prince Leonid claimed you." "Father, did you know that alpha Stefan had made me his Luna and it will abomination for me to be claimed by just anybody, when...""Fiona, did you just refer to me as anybody?" Leonid said I pinned my lips together, and he moved closer to me and pulled my hand. "Fiona, don't you want to be my mate anymore, you and I could be good leaders if only you let your dad conduct the ritual of our mating, the mating ceremony would make us one, and
"Stefan..." I called him trying to take his hand, but he withdrew his hand and glared at me, I signed and turned my gaze to Leonid that is grinning. "You can go be with him, it's all a mistake, Hazel was right..." Stefan's words hurt, I hit his face, and I ran to the door, Leonid held my hand trying to stop me, Stefan took one last look at me and Leonid's hand on mine, and he pulled the doorknob. "Let me go, Leonid, I am sorry but I can't be with you, As the Luna of the Shadow Moon Pack, I, Fiona Oliver, hereby solemnly reject you, Prince Leonid, as my mate."Leonid stared at me blankly, I knew he wasn't expecting me to reject him openly, he should have seen it coming, my actions had rejected him but this is the height of it, doing it openly is one thing, I never thought I could do. I felt bad for hurting him"I, Prince Leonid the son of the deceased Alpha of the Shadow Moon Pack, hereby accept your rejection." He said as he pushed the door and walked away, he didn't throw an eye at
My eyes slowly open, I thought that I was dead and right now I am with the moon goddess, it can't be, I am not dead, still alive because my back is meeting a soft bed and that scent is still lingering around, my eyes go round the room, it wasn't my room but a different one. The door flew open, and someone entered, I hadn't seen the face of the person but I knew that it was Stefan, I sat on the bed fast, I could feel the race of my heart, he moved closer to me and caressed my hair. "How are you feeling now, my Luna?" I raise my head to look at him, he seems to be in a good mood. "I am fine, did you save me?" I asked I thought I was already dead, I had no idea that I could still be alive this morning. The moon goddess must love to continue to see me. "Why should I let my Luna die? Why should I hurt the woman that is my Luna?" I frown, he only saves me because I am his Luna, he wants nothing from me, he didn't want anything from me. I am only going to be his Luna because he has no ch
I tried to figure out where the blood was coming from, but it wasn't from me, then my eyes moved to Stefan, he was biting himself, how did his lips move from my neck to his arm? "Stefan, stop, you are hurting...""Fiona runs, you should run before I hurt, go away." His voice was frightened, full of pain, doing what he asked of me, which was to run through that door and never come back, was the only thing that I wanted to do. Still, the pain in his voice didn't make me want to go away, I wanted to be there for him, I wanted to help him, I stubbornly held his hand, and he pushed my hand off his. 'You are not listening, I said run, I am going to hurt you and I don't want to." That last part was low, I could see the pain he was feeling trying not to hurt me, my hand moved to circle his neck but he pulled from me, like he was burning and he was going to consume me if I came anywhere close to him. The next thing I heard was the loud banging of the bathroom door, he had run through that d
"Oh, stop thinking about this, it will heal in no time." "Stop being silly, let me heal it." "Heal it? Can you..." My words stopped, as he began to lick my wrist without warning, his eyes closed, savoring the taste of my blood. "You taste sweeter than anything I could ever think of.""Are you sure, it will be okay for you?" I asked, he moved his eyes slowly to mine. "Not to worry, my demon is in check." I blushed, and he looked at me, I found it funny when he kept referring to himself as a demon. "What's funny?" He asked me, he pulled my wrist gently to place me on the bed, and that was when he noticed that I was leaping. "Hey, what happened to you?" He asked, pulling me off the floor, placing one of his hands behind my back and knees, carrying me like a princess. Gently he placed me on the bed, he pulled my legs, those bruises from last night are still here, it's painful, I almost forget the pain with Stefan beside me. "How did you sustain all these bruises? And why didn't you tel
"Who are you?" Stefan asked, turning around to see where the voice was coming from, only to be visited by a bright light, Stefan closed his eyes with his arm to avoid being blinded by the light. "Show yourself, who are you? I am not scared of you." Stefan yelled with all boldness, the woman chuckled, seeing how bold he was, even in a strange place. Stefan moved his hand from his face, only to see the woman dressed in white, she was like the sun, and her appearance was what gave light to the place, everywhere was beautiful because of her, yet she looked strange and scary. "Have you ever heard of the saying if Mohammed doesn't come to the mountain, the mountains will come to Mohammed." Her voice where lovely, and familiar, yet Stefan hadn't met her before. "Who are you and why did you bring me here? Speak, if you don't want me to devour you." She laughed without humor, Stefan looked at her. "Patient boy, you are too stubborn, do you know what happens to stubborn people when they get i
