Text: Alpha, something is wrong with Luna. She seems upset. She won’t talk to me about it.

I wasn’t sure what was wrong. I couldn’t mind link so far away from me and her phone hadn’t arrived yet.

Let’s go to mate. What if she’s still injured – Atlas whined and we got in the car and drove.

Text: Alpha! Please tell me you’re close. The Luna just started crying and won’t talk. I don’t know what to do.*

Text: Omw

I practically ran the whole way to the store. My heart almost broke when I heard her sobs from outside the changing rooms.

‘She wouldn’t stop!’ she complained. Weve gone to 15 different stores and we spent so much money. I’m sorry. I couldn’t stop her. / kepta tally, I can return a lot of it later. Please don’t be mad.’

“How much do you think you spent today’ I was realizing why she was upset.

It was $6,783. I’m sorry. Please don’t be mad.’

I tried. I really tried not to laugh but it bubbled out of me, making me clutch my stomach. I had tears in my eyes when I was done laughing and Celeste was just looking at me with a slight smile but confusion still evident in her eyes. Her stomach growled and I laughed as I watched the beautiful blush that rose to her cheeks.

I had her wrap her arm around mine after I dismissed everyone. I took her to the food court. Although I wanted to take her to a fancy

restaurant, I remembered that she mentioned she never had take out food. Hled her to a fast food Chinese place then settled us in a

booth. The little noises she was making while eating the food were almost too much for me. I could feel my c**k twitch each time a little moan came out of her mouth. I didn’t trust myself to touch her right now. I just did my best to eat and not look creepy while I stared at

her.

“You’re barely eating,” she said. I took a bite of my food and grinned at her.

“I’m sorry I had a breakdown. I thought you would be mad at how much money we were spending. I guess I didn’t realize that money wasn’t important to you.” She frowned.

“But?” I asked

“We’ve never had control over our lives, food, money, clothes. We’ve worked for nothing and gotten even less than that. I will take this gift, but I need to pull my weight. I need work,” she said with a stubborn look on her face.

“You are the Luna -“

“Not for two months. I can’t not do anything for two months. I don’t want to be a burden. If I am to be Luna, I need to be productive. ” Her determination surprised me, but Atlas was just puffing his chest proudly.

i frowned. “But you don’t need to cook.”

“But I like to. You liked my food, didn’t you?” She pouted.

“Yes it was some of the best food I’ve ever had but love…” She pouted and I sighed. “Once a week?” I tried to compromise,

“Three” she said.

“Two? Please? You’re going to be so busy once you start your tutoring and learning the Luna duties.”

She thought about it and then smiled and stuck her hand out to shake on it. I took her hand and pulled her forward, slamming her

against my chest with a squeak. I gave her another kiss and she giggled.

“Let’s go home my little Tuli,” I said, getting up. She scrunched her nose adorably but allowed me to putt her up. I wrapped my arm around her waist as we headed out of the mall.

“What does Tuli mean?” She asked.

I smirked and looked down at her. “It is the Finnish word for Fire.”
