Ch 16 Future Luna
When she walked by him at the dining table, Kai pulled Thea onto his lap. She expected a reprimand from their parents, but when she glanced over at them, they were all smiling and sharing knowing looks.
“I want to lick the sweat from your body,” Kai whispered in her ear.
“You’re making me wet,” she whispered back in his ear.
“Mmm, I can take care of that too,” he whispered. Kai kissed her neck, turned Thea’s head to face him, and trailed kisses up to her mouth. In a good and generous mood, Thea followed his lead, submitting to him in front of everyone at the table. A few gasps sounded, followed by excited chattering.
“My turn,” Conri said, pulling her onto his lap. Thea laughed, wrapped her arms around him, and kissed him. Conri squeezed her ass under the table, and she bit back a moan before Alaric pulled her over and kissed her too.
The dining hall erupted in applause. Alaric broke the kiss and smiled at her. He kissed her again then set her on himself and Conri, each leg draped over one of theirs. The triplets grabbed their peaches off their plates and twisted them in half. They each put a hand somewhere on Thea as they ate with the other one.
Thea blushed when she saw everyone in the room staring at them and cheering. The kids at school and in training may have seen them together, but the older pack members hadn’t yet. She braved a glance over at their parents. To her surprise, they were all beaming with joy and pride. The Alpha stood up and raised a glass. °
“It’s about time, huh?” Everyone banged the table and howled happily. “Let’s bring out the wine. Tonight we celebrate!” |
More cheering. The people who worked the dinner service passed around wine bottles and glasses. Thea looked at the triplets, confused.
“We’ve been telling you we’re mates, and you’re the future Luna. Everyone knows it,” Kai said. He leaned over and kissed her.
When everyone had a glass of wine, including the servers, the Alpha raised his glass into the air.
“To young love and the future of this pack!”
“Hear! Hear!” The whole pack roared in unison then took a drink of the wine. Thea belatedly joined them, sipping from her glass.
“Everyone loves you,” Alaric whispered against her neck.
Pack members came by, congratulated, and wished the four well throughout dinner. Thea was overwhelmed. The older she-wolves pressed their cheeks to Thea’s to show they accepted her as their future Luna.
“I’m so proud of you, dear,” Thea’s mother said as she pressed her cheek to her daughter’s.
Proud that she just kissed three boys in front of her? What? 1
“I’ ve been waiting for this since the day you were born,” Luna Ada said as she rubbed her cheek against Thea’s. “You’ve always been the best thing for my sons. ] can’t wait until you shift, and we can hold the mating ceremony.” She gathered all four of them into a hug, kissed each head, then walked back to her seat, tears in her eyes.
Beta Walter, Thea’s father, took his turn and congratulated them. “I couldn’t ask for better men for my only daughter. Congratulations, Alphas, Luna.”
Thea started at the title. She never expected to hear her father call her Luna.
Alpha Ulric came over. “Congratulations. I’d like t0 see you all in my office first thing tomorrow morning.”
