บททั้งหมดของ The Royal Luna: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

"What's on the menu for dinner?" Alice asks, dropping next to me. It's the first night of winter; the night when the King introduces me to the rest of Black Shadow. We're currently in the pack house, everyone under one roof. They say it's a way to keep the pack together during the snow storms and the bitter cold that's bound to come our way. In some packs, the pack moves into the Alpha's house but it seems that the King and Queen have decided to do things a little differently."We used to do it the other way around but when the pack had a population over three hundred, we had to do something else" Trish explained as we moved to the pack house, taking a small bag over to the pack house with me. I didn't expect to spend too long but I'm beginning to realise that I might be here a while."Think of it as a massive sleepover. A two month long sleepover" Alice said, skipping next to me. "Our house is locked up, power switched off and everyone bunkers in here" we've been here for two nights

When Clyde said he was having a celebration he wasn't kidding. After dinner is served some of the pack members set up a sound system and the music is so loud, I can barely hear myself think. Alice drags me to the dance floor where we dance for Goddess knows how long.We spin each other around some crazy form of waltzing and even do a bit of salsa. We get major applaud for that one. It seems that fighting makes dancing a little easier. The music somehow makes my body do stuff on its own. My hips sway side to side, rolling forward occasionally. It's the most fun I've had a in a long time. Alice spins me around, making me bash into someone's chest. Arms cross over my front, steadying me while I still feel my insides spin. "Maybe you should take a break" Austin says in my ear as I giggle. I've not had anything to drink and even if I did, alcohol doesn't affect werewolves but I still feel like my body is pumped with energy. I lean back against him, letting the tingles run through me. My wo

After talking with my dad, I feel a lot happier. I walk with a little bounce, I always feel like my face holds a smile and I even go to bed humming softly under my breath.But there's one thing that worries me. Red Blood are attacking them frequently. I don't know how much longer they'll last. I lie on my side, staring at the wall. I've been in bed alone for at least an hour, Austin saying that he needs to run around the perimeter to check the guards. When he finally comes in, he climbs in behind me without even having to turn the lights on. I hear his belt buckle jingle as he undoes it. He brings with him the smell of fresh air.When he huddles close to my back, I know he can sense that I'm awake."Why aren't you sleeping yet?" he whispers, his lips right next to my ear. "Is your wolf still worrying about her annoying mate?" it brings a quick smile to my face but it vanishes quickly."Not just that. I'm scared for Silverstone. Dad's not himself; I think being without a mate has final

He's not in the bed when I wake up nor is he on the couch. I sigh unhappily. Last night was a long hard night. I couldn't get to sleep; my wolf was restless and just wanted her mate. But he has to learn that he can't do this to me and expect me to forgive him straight away. He has to earn it. Clyde gives me a questioning look when I come for breakfast still wearing my running gear and I smile tiredly at him. No one really passes comment on my clothes; they're all used to me wearing them."He wasn't speaking much in the meeting. What did you say?" he whispers to me when the others get engaged in a conversation. We're eating in the large dining ballroom. Breakfast is always served at nine in the pack house, if you want some you have to be here. The phrase 'you snooze, you lose' is taken very seriously here."That if he slept in the bed with me, I wouldn't go out with him today" I shrug and Clyde exits with a smile. Alice then frowns at me when I turn my head to side, my hair still up."

Luke's P.O.VI sit in the dark of my room, unable to sleep. Paper is lying haphazardly all over my bed, the battlefield souvenirs of my previous struggle. I'm going to make a pretty bad Alpha, especially seen as I can't even protect my sister from being taken. Dad said she called and that she was mated to the Prince. I already knew that; the guards talk a lot. Dear Old Dad must have been the last to know.It feels so wrong without her. I'm used to having her waking up early in the morning, going for her jog around the borders, coming back to make us breakfast, then doing training before lunch and helping Dad until dinner or looking after the three hooligans. Of course sometimes I had to make the breakfast or watch over the hooligans while she helped Dad and vice versa.She was practically Luna for this pack. She kept the fighters on their feet, keeping them smiling when she went by them. When I was on patrol, she'd always sneak up on me. She'd leap onto my back, kissing my cheek and d
