Becoming Luna 2: His True Luna Awakens のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

[Danica’s POV]Many eyes found their way to me as I entered the small meeting room with Dax. Despite knowing that I should have felt insecure about their looks of distrust, I felt a small pull towards them, as if I had known them my whole life."Who is this?" A man with a buzzed head and blazing red eyes, set deep beneath a protruding forehead, asked Dax as we made our way towards the table. "Why have you brought an outsider with you?""There is no outsider here." Dax snapped, shooting the man a glare. "Clarence, this is my granddaughter..." For a moment, Dax paused, remembering that I currently didn’t have a name. "Her name is Xena."Xena… it had a good ring to it, but I couldn’t help wondering why he had chosen that name."Granddaughter?" Clarence repeated, letting a bark of laughter escape him. "Since when have you had a granddaughter?""Since we discovered that Xavier left an heir behind before he disappeared." Dax beamed. "And aside from that, I have nothing else to explain to yo

[Mason's POV]Danica allowed me to lead her to the middle of the dance floor. As we moved, many eyes trailed us, and I could feel hostility trickling from the males of her father's pack who were clearly aiming to try to win her heart.Holding back my rage at another man even looking at my mate, I shot them a smirk. After all, I was the one she allowed to hold her hand for all to see."Having fun?" Danica sighed, catching me in the act. "If you want to cause trouble, you can leave.""No, no." I said quickly. "I only wish to dance with you."Stopping, I pulled her against me, letting my arms snake around her waist. Instantly I felt an overwhelming sense of relief as her warmth sank into me and my son's strong heartbeat drifted through the music that was filling my ears. "Too tight," Danica hissed, beginning to try to pull away."Whoops." Shit, I needed to remember that she didn't remember me. Otherwise, I feared I would push her away if I was too pushy."That's better." She sighed as

[Mason's POV]Bright sunlight trickled into the small room around us, illuminating my love's serene sleeping face. Reaching out a hand, I touched her cheek, luxuriating in the warmth of her skin.As much as I wanted to stay like this, I needed to go.Today was the day. We would be traveling to the Arcadian Islands to retrieve Bryllie and bring her home where she belonged. After she was safe, we would deal with the traitorous harpies.Sitting up, I was careful to not jostle Danica awake. She needed all the sleep she could get. "Mmmm." Her warm voice murmured as her golden eyes fluttered open. "Mason?"A thrill rushed through me at my name on her lips. It still wasn't said quite the same as when she remembered me, but I was happy to have made it back to this point with her."Go back to sleep." I murmured, giving a smile. "I've got to go prepare my team."Danica and I had decided to go our separate ways with this, each taking one end of the island, so there was no chance for escape. Eve

[Danica's POV]I moved silently through the forest around me, being sure not to step on any twigs or downed branches. So far, we were lucky enough to not run into anyone, and we were close enough to the mountains to see them through the trees.Sniffing the air, I managed to get a hint of a familiar scent. Flashes of Bryllie's smiling face popped into my mind, and then I knew it was her."Up ahead." I whispered to Dax, who was standing close beside me. "I can smell her.""Should we shift now?" One of the warriors accompanying us asked from behind."What do you think?" Dax asked, leaving all decisions to me."Yeah."It was best to make our move in our strongest of forms.Stepping behind a tree, I began to strip my clothes off and placed them in a pile on the ground for later.Getting on all fours, I began the shifting process, but stopped midway when I felt the dark presence that I had felt before in my wolf form."What?" I gasped as it began to claw at me, forcing me to continue the ch

[Mason's POV]When we arrived at the Black Forest packgrounds, our rooms were already set and ready. It felt weird being somewhere that wasn't the Cove pack, but I was sure to inform Chris of my current situation. For the time being, he would take over as alpha until we could figure out Danica's situation and help her master her wolf."This is where you will sleep." Dax murmured as he led us around the packhouse. "Here?" I repeated, eyeing the single bed that was within."Is there a problem?" Dax asked, narrowing his gaze on me. "I'm being kind enough to allow you to stay here. What more do you want? ""I'm not sleeping separately from my wife." I pointed out, wrapping a protective arm around Danica's waist as she let out a huff and rolled her eyes."W-wife?" Dax sputtered, eyeing us. "Did you say... ""That's right." I smirked. "We are not only Bryllie's parents, but we were married eight years ago."I felt a sense of satisfaction as Dax's expression fell into one of frustration. Ha
