True Luna novel (Emma and Logan) novel Chapter 186

True Luna by Tessa Lilly (The Unknown Magic)

The White Wolf Series Book 4 – CHAPTER FOURTEEN – Scared

(Alexander’s POV)

I turned around to look at Fia as soon as my dad closed the office door. She looked like she was in pain. She looked exhausted. She looked so scared and confused.

My heart broke and I wished that I could take her pain away. I wished that Hunter never came here. I wished that he wasn’t her mate.

But she wasn’t tired just because of what happened with Hunter. She was tired for days now.

And I knew exactly why.

“I don’t know what to do, Lex,” Fia mumbled as she let her head fall to her c*hest.

She placed her hands on her head and g*roaned.

I clenched my fists and tightened my jaw. I wanted her to reject him. I wanted her to stay here where she was safe. What if Hunter’s insane father decided to hurt Fia as an act of revenge against my mom and dad? How the f*uck could I let her go to Hunter’s pack knowing that Nathan was there?

Simple. I couldn’t.

But I wasn’t going to tell her what to do. Despite what I had said earlier, I wasn’t going to make decisions for her. I said it out of fear. Now that I had calmed down a little, I could think clearly. She was a smart girl. She would make the right decision.

I had trouble calming myself down. From my point of view, my twin was in

danger and I was scared s*hitless. I could feel panic increasing inside my body. I could tell that I was on alert. My heart rate increased when she recognized him as her mate and it hadn’t slowed down since. I was tense and I was on edge. I kept thinking about her well-being and it was hard for me to focus on anything else. I felt helpless and powerless. I felt vulnerable. It didn’t feel like that just because of Hunter. I felt like that because I could tell that she was having trouble with her magic. This situation with Hunter could only make it worse and that made my stomach twist painfully.

I watched as Fia walked to the couch and sat down. She sighed and looked up at me.

“I can’t tell you what to do, Fia,” I mumbled as I crossed my arms over my c*hest. “A part of me wants to. A part of me wants to make this decision for you, but I know I can’t.”

“I know,” Fia sighed.

“What do you want to do?” I asked her softly.

She looked up at me and shook her head. “I don’t know, Lex.”

I sighed and approached her. I sat down beside her and rubbed her back gently.

“You must have some ideas,” I said, studying her face.

Her eyebrows furrowed and she looked down at her hands.

“I want him, Lex,” she mumbled. “But I am also scared. What if his father doesn’t accept me? What if he is still angry at our family?”

I’d noticed that she wasn’t afraid of him not accepting her or of our family being angry at her. It made me happy. She knew that we would always be there for her, no matter what.

“And my magic…,” Fia added quietly, making me tense up.

“What about it, Fia?” I asked, making her look at me.

“I don’t want to hurt him,” she mumbled. “I don’t want to hurt anyone.”

My heart clenched painfully. I pulled her into a hug.

“You are not going to hurt anyone, Fia,” I said softly. “We will find a way to deal with it. We always did.”

And then a thought occurred to me.

I let her go and grabbed her shoulders.
