Second Chance Luna (Phoebe and Jason) novel Chapter 61

61 /112

Phoebe woke with a start still in her wolf form. Raising her head she yawned and looked down at the young woman huddled in her fur. Shannon had returned to her human form but a pleasant smile indicated she was having a good dream.

“Máni?’

‘Yes?’ Máni’s voice seemed oddly distant.

‘Was that a dream?’

‘More like three dreams. Ours, hers and his.’

‘His?’

‘Shannon’s Mate.’

‘So that wolf was real?’

‘Of course, he’s real. I can’t make a wolf appear out of thin air.’

‘But who is he? Where is he?’

I don’t know. I’ve never smelled him before and I didn’t feel a link so it’s safe to assume he’s not from our pack. But he is close. Maybe he’s from a neighboring pack?’

‘But how do we find him?’

We don’t, Máni said

‘But Shannon.

Is strong. And now that she feels the connection to her second chance Mate she’ll be able to let go of her old bond much easier,’ Máni said. ‘It is not for us to interfere in the natural order.’

Phoebe was silent, …Still, I didn’t know we could enter another’s dream like that.’

Neither did / and I’m pretty sure this was a special case because of Shannon’s rejection.

‘That does make sense, Phoebe agreed as they nuzzled the sleeping girl. I wish we could take away all her pain.’

‘Pain helps us grow.’

I wish growing wasn’t so hard.’

‘Ditto. We should let her rest now. I think she’ll sleep the rest of the night.’

They carefully extracted themselves from the omega.

Shaking away any lingering cramps she shifted back to her human form and quickly dressed. Staying so long in her wolf form wasn’t easy given how little she shifted over the years. But if Máni was now willing to shift in front of others perhaps they could do it more often. It would be nice to go for a run and explore the pack territory, preferably with Jason. She desperately wanted their wolves to meet.

With a sigh she looked at Shannon curled up on the floor, naked and asleep. They couldn’t leave her like this. Shed catch a chill for certain. Approaching the bed Phoebe pulled back the covers before turning to the task of how to get the sleeping omega into bed.

Kneeling Phoebe slung one of Shannon’s arms over her shoulder and slowly stood. The young omega was petite but dead weight in her arms as she dragged her to bed.

Phoebe nearly ended up in bed with her but eventually got her safely under the covers. As she tucked in the sleeping woman she couldn’t help but be grateful the omega was as petite as she was.

You should also be grateful for the strength training our Mate has been making you do.”

Phoebe took a final look at Shannon. Her face was peaceful indicating her dream must be good. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on Jobnib.com.

Quietly letting herself out of the room she opened a link to the head of the kitchen, “Myra?”

“Yes, Luna,” came the immediate answer. Phoebe thought the link felt active but it was strange she didn’t detect any signs of drowsiness through it.

“Are you still awake?”

“I’ve been worried about Shannon and I figured you would want to talk.”

Phoebe smiled. It seemed the pack was getting used to her ways rather quickly, “Shannon is asleep. I don’t think she’ll have nightmares tonight. I’d like to give her a couple days off but working might give her something else to focus on

*I see what you mean. Yes. If Shannon wants to keep working I will make sure to give her some light duty so she doesn’t overdo it and I’ll let her sleep late tomorrow too.
