All Chapters of The First Human Luna: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“I understand, King Harvey. Can we sleep now?” I ask as I lie back down.King Harvey checks the candle he has taken out of my hand and blows it out. He lays down beside me, then pulls me into his chest.The overwhelming feeling of love and protection relaxes me instantly.“I love you, Elena. Goodnight.”“I love you, King Harvey. Goodnight.”I am off to sleep in maybe five minutes.The dream I have is weightless but peaceful.I awoke to sudden feral shouting.“Harvey!! Harvey!!!” His mother howls as she pounds on the front door.Sitting straight up in bed, I am shoved down by King Harvey instantly.“Down, Elena.” King Harvey commands as he removes his hand from my chest. He motions for me to lie down, and I do, looking him in the eyes for some kind of explanation. He presses his finger to his lips and moves to the front door,

A few minutes after our encounter with the werewolf workers, King Harvey stands with our bags bundled on his back and me in his arms as normal.“King Harvey, why are we leaving?”“Well, my mate.” King Harvey’s warm voice soothes me. “It is best we spend our honeymoon alone. Unfortunately, after your successful shield, they have gotten to talking. We do not wish for an audience, do we? These werewolves will want to ask me many questions about you and this information of you and I should not spill out.”“No, King Harvey, of course not.”“Many to fight if they walk in on us…” King Harvey mutters as he readjusts me in his arms, to hold me tighter to his chest.I see his silver eyes and I know his protective nature is starting to overtake him.“You are an excellent protector, King Harvey. That is an excellent hallmark of a fantastic husband, thank you.”Ki

Between the intruder and the mention of his mother, my palms begin to twitch and ache. Both my palms splay forward.A red shockwave, a perfect oval the size of the door flies out of my hands, and I watch as the intruder goes flying back into the tree that is in front of our cottage.“How excellent, Elena!” King Harvey praises me with a wide grin and a twirling hug.Looking down at my warm trembling hands, I gasp. Is this the power I hold in me? This is my awakened luna power?My power keeps us up all night. King Harvey puts us to bed at four in the morning and before I know it, it is noon.Right now, I stare at the clock in front of me. I have never slept in this late. King Harvey remains snoring softly beside me, with his arm draped around my waist. His sleeping face is always so smooth and peaceful. He looks as if he was carved out of stone with his high cheekbones, strong, masculine square jaw, and powerful presence.Even in h

“Elena.” King Harvey helps me sit up and rests my head on his shoulder. “I am sorry to frighten you.”“You are formidable.” I say feeling weak.I can’t imagine the extent of his power, or mine, for that fact.-“Elena, you have been quiet.” King Harvey tosses over his shoulder as he stirs the pot in our kitchen. He is making us a healing soup because we both need rest.“Your power made it impossible to breathe, King Harvey. I felt the skin would fly off my bones. How do you contain it?”“I would die if I constantly was in my werewolf form, exhaustion, Elena.”“Really?”“Yes, Elena.” King Harvey replies patiently. “I am a living creature, despite my powers.”The icicles hanging off his words stun me. Did I misstep?“I never thought of exhaustion killing a werewolf, King Harvey. Are you mad at me?&

The next morning after breakfast, King Harvey glances at me from above the notepad he is still studying.“I certainly would enjoy it if we had access to some items used to make practice shields, Elena. Yet, if we return to the kingdom now, it would be a mess. Rumors would fly that we cut our honeymoon short, as if we are not blissfully wed. Are we?”I laugh at his question. “I love you, King Harvey.”“Are you happy to be with me, Elena?” King Harvey asks gravely. “I must know.”“Do you believe I am not happy to be with you, King Harvey?”“As much as I love you, Elena, I cannot read your mind.” King Harvey replies sternly, yet the gentleness in his eyes proves he is worried under the surface.“You are being vulnerable with me, King Harvey.”“Are you?” King Harvey presses.“Yes, I am.”King Harvey breathes a deep sig
