The Wolf King's Luna novel Chapter 50

FAYE

We both walk a small distance away from them to strip out of our clothes before shifting into our wolf forms and running the rest of the way to the crags, our clothes in our mouths.

It is a small distance, Luacs and I had both decided to meet in the middle point between packs. 

During the run, my mind ruminates through many thoughts.

What if he doesn't believe me?

What if he refused to take the offer that Alpha had extended to him?

Would I have to reject him?

Would I have the strength to do so?

The thoughts just continue to spiral from there, tiling me up and making me even more anxious.

"You need to calm down," my wolf's cool tone washes over my mind. "He hasn't said anything yet, why worry over what might not happen?" she asks.

"Because it might happen. You know, you are way too calm with the possibility of us losing our mate," I tell her.

"I am not. I am just choosing to see how it goes before I settle on an emotion. Honestly, what is with you mortals and your lack of control?"

"What lack of control?! I am very controlled."

"Not over your emotions, you are not."

"They are emotions! Feelings! They can't be controlled," I snap.

"Says you."

Unfortunately, before I can respond, we arrive at the crags. I see Lucas waiting up ahead for me and I rush to him, tail wagging.

He gets down to my level to give my ears a light scratch.

"You have a beautiful wolf, Faye,", he murmurs, before rubbing his hand across my fur.

I hear a loud snort behind me and I turn to see Mel, standing a few distance away, still in her wolf form.

Quickly giving him a small head butt, I join and follow her to a safe space where we change back and get dressed.

"You have a beautiful wolf, Faye" she mimics.

"You are just jealous," I retort.

"In your dreams."

"Whatever. So, " I ask as I turn to her. "What do you think?"

"About what?"

"About Lucas," I snap.

"Ah. Well, he is handsome."

"Seriously?! That is all you can say?"

"What do you want me to say? I just met the man," she snaps back.

That is true.

Damn, I need to call down.

"Very well, then. Let's get you two introduced, come on," I say as I lead the way out.

I hear her groan before her footsteps echo behind me.

"Hi," I say as I join Lucas, who is sitting on a rock.

"Hi, how have you been?"

"Good. I hope you weren't waiting too long?" I ask.

"Nah, I got here a few minutes before you."

"That's good then. This is Melissa, my closest friend, fellow warrior, and our Alpha's sister," I introduce.

"A pleasure to meet you," he says to her.

"Hmm. I have been curious about what kind of man would be Faye's mate. Please tell me about yourself."
