"How could you possibly know that?" Selena said while she struggled to sit on the bed.She was getting annoyed to have that conversation in a vulnerable and lame position like that."Well, that's a really long story, but since you don't have anything else to do, I think we can go through that now."Lucas laid back on the chair beside the bed and crossed his arms, looking at the ceiling thoughtful."Do you remember the time you were ambushed by some of Shane's wolves?"Selena widened her eyes, shocked."How did you…?""I was the white wolf that saved you that night." Lucas simply said, like that was the most ordinary thing he could say.Selena couldn't even find the words to express how shocked and confused she was.She tried to remember exactly what happened that night."Wait… But you also had some unusual strength and speed." she said more for herself than for him.Nothing made sense.Lucas was smiling at her with a very enigmatic expression on his face."I also have powers like you.

Selena could not believe that was actually going to happen.They were at the perfect place, and although she wasn't at her best shape yet, she couldn't want it more than she wanted at that moment.She had waited for so long already, and the nearly death experience with Shane made her want to enjoy every second of her life with Lucas.Lucas was making her feel things she had never felt before. As he kissed her collarbone and ran his hand all over her body, she could feel her desire growing inside of her.Her lower belly was on fire, and she could feel her body compelled to him, like they were meant to become one.Lucas walked blindly to the bed, with Selena wrapped around him.He tossed her on the bed and took his shirt off. Selena couldn't blink as she stared at his abs.She sat on the bed and started to caress his chest and abs. Lucas grabbed her hair and pulled her up, so she could stay at the same level as him."This is your last chance to say if you don't want me to continue." he s

A few days passed with a lot of hard training. Selena wanted to know how to control her powers completely without facing any unforeseen events when she found herself in a dangerous situation again.Lucas taught her how to control her abilities when it came out, so she wouldn't attack anyone again without intention."Now you understand why I said I didn't know what happened with Demi the other day, right? I didn't even know it was possible to use powers in my human form."Lucas nodded."I know. Actually, I think I actually knew at the time as well, but I wanted you to tell me. I didn't want you to feel pressured to tell me anything about your life, unless you felt like it."Selena smiled at him gratefully. She could definitely understand what he meant."So close your eyes again. You need to feel where the force inside of you is coming from." he got back to the training. "This energy you feel is what makes you powerful. You need to be able to lead it to the part of your body you're going

Lucas sat beside Selena, grabbing her hand and stroking it with love.Selena felt a little awkward with that public display of affection in front of her grandmother, but pretended Grandma didn't have a mischievous smile on her face."Well, did you discover anything?" she asked Lucas, ignoring Grandma's presence. Lucas leaned against the couch and stared at the two women."Yes, I did. Apparently, one of the guys we took as hostages from Shane's pack had spoken. He didn't seem very eager to follow Shane's orders anymore, so it wasn't that hard to take some information from him.""So, what did he say?" Selena asked again, impatiently."He said Shane have a lot of followers, but not as much as we thought he had. Which is a bonus for us." Cora and Selena nodded, so he continued."He didn't tell me when Shane was planning to act or where they could be right now, but he said Shane is planning to attack the humans. My people is still working on getting more information about that from him."

Selena ran to his arms and jumped into a hug. Her tears wet his shirt, which made Lucas really worried."Hey, what happened? Why are you crying?" he asked pulling her by the shoulder to face him."I… I'm just exhausted. This is too overwhelming to me, I can't do it.""Baby, come on. You can't think like that. It didn't even start, you need to be stronger than that. Tell me how it was." Lucas pulled her to the bed, and they sat on it to talk.Selena calmed herself down and told him how the ceremony was. She also told him about the conversation she had with Bryce before and after the event."Now it makes sense. You had a tough day. But it will get better with time. And when it's not, I'll be here to comfort you."Selena hugged him again and thanked him. She couldn't put into words how she appreciated him being there."When are we telling the packs about us? I mean… I'm scared to death they won't accept you and be mad at me." Selena said afraid."Wow! Why wouldn't they accept me?" Lucas p
