All Chapters of Becoming a Luna: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

*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

*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

*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

*Nikko's POV*"I'm going to make her mine." I said again, this time outloud, with my head against the shower wall."What?" Ash said. "You don't mean…""Come on, there's no use denying it anymore. I cannot be away from that girl, I cannot think about anything except that girl, I cannot be with anyone but that girl," I told Ash. "I will make Jo my Luna."Ash let out an actual howl of excitement that echoed around the bathroom."That doesn't mean I will do it right away," I said, backing up slightly. "But there is nobody else I want in my life in that spot. It'll be an adjustment period, but she is worth it.""Just watching her train changed your mind?" Ash asked."No, I think I've known it all along, but just didn't want to admit it. It was impressive to see how well she learned though," I stepped out of the shower and started getting dressed. "The pressures of the pack are a lot to handle.""You can handle it better with her."There was a small knock on my bedroom door, so I st

*Jo's POV*Kissing. They were kissing.I couldn't get it out of my head as I sprinted through the trees, thankful for the path I could follow back to the cabin. The rage that was boiling through my veins kept the tears at bay, but I wasn't sure for how long.The cabin came into view and I let out a tearless sob. Then I saw Byron standing outside looking all around, and realized he must be looking for me. As soon as I cleared the trees his eyes found me, and relief turned to concern as he saw my face."Jo? What is it? What's wrong?" he asked as I got near, but I just ran past him into the cabin.I forgot how fast they had told me wolves could be though, and he caught up with me and grabbed my arm to hold me back at the base of the stairs."Hey, talk to me," Byron pleaded. "What happened? What can I do?"I stared at him coldly, my rage still hadn't subsided. Or maybe it was Cressa's rage. At this point, I didn't even know."You can get me a car. I'm leaving.""I can't just get a
