The Lycan's Soul Mate novel Chapter 17

Just as Luca and Nancy got into the Kitchen a loud noise was heard of dishes breaking and a monstrous growl from the kitchen. Luna instinctively got up and ran to the kitchen and Soccorah could not stop her. When she entered the Kitchen, she saw a bewildered Nancy standing in front of the wolf from her dream. She couldn’t believe her eyes. She was so surprised. The wolf growled angrily in her direction. He seemed confused.

Nancy shouted at Soccorah “What are you waiting for Stun her.” Luna shocked at what just happened turned to see Soccorah’s eyes turn pink and started to wave her hand in Luna’s direction. Luna pushed her and ran out the house. She burst through the front door and ran as fast as she could in human form away from the house. She could feel the wolf following her. She ran until she’d lost him.

“Why did they try to hurt her. Why did Luca Growl at her like he wanted to hurt her? She thought that she’d found a friend in Soccorah but she betrayed her. What the hell was she anyway? Pink eyes? What the fuck was all that about.” Luca whom she was attracted to and thought to be the love of her life was now chasing her down. She’d just tried getting away from her adopted parents who kept her from her only living family only to throw herself into the mouths of wolves and whatever the hell Soccorah was.

She couldn’t go home as she didn’t want to face her parents now. She also didn’t want to risk Luca following her home. What can I do she thought to herself? Where can I go? She then remembered that her uncle had told her that she could always count on him when she needed answers. She headed to his house. She knocked anxiously and persistently on his door.

Lucian came to open the door and was surprised to see a shaking Luna standing there. “Luna, come inside. What happened? Why so scared?” he asked with a concerned tone. Luna buried her head onto his huge chest and started to cry. Lucian sat her down and got her a cup of tea. Luna proceeded to tell her uncle what had happened.

Lucian was quite surprised that there were ware wolves living in Attica. From what Luna had said Soccorah must be a Fay. He had not been able to detect her scent. She must be protected. Lucian went o to tell Soccorah of her heritage and why she shouldn’t fear any creature ware wolf or fairy alike. He told her how she had inherited her grandmother’s gift and she only needed to accept it to be able to allow the gifts to evolve with her.

You are my family now Luna. We fear no one. We hold back our power out of respect for the alpha of our pack as we only want to have a normal life. But no alpha can compare to the strength which you have inherited Luna. When you are marked by your mate You will reach the height of your power. Whichever pack alpha is mated to you is truly blessed by the goddess.

He sat Luna down and explained what had happened to her parents. That he had only recently found the witch who framed her mother set all of the tragedy that befell their family in motion. He had to leave for the pack to exercise judgement. He told her that he could get her time off school if she wanted to come with him. After that was taken care of, she could train with the pack. That way she would definitely not freak out when faced with a situation like what happened tonight.

Luna agreed but was still confused about what had happened with Luca. She proceeded to tell him about her dream. She felt comfortable with him. She sat and thought what her life would have been like had he raised her instead of her stepmom and dad. She felt so safe and relaxed not like when she was thinking why he was constantly staring at her. That was creepy.

Lucian realized after listening to Luna’s explanation about her experience and dreams of Luca since her transformation that she had found her mate. He wanted to tell her but thought he’d give her some time to get used to being a wolf first. He was so happy to have found his niece. “Well, those dreams were very vivid but I’m afraid that I leave tomorrow for the pack and if you want to join me in the morning you will have to get packed. I will accompany you so we need to get some sleep.” With that they both went to bed.

Luca went back to the house to find Nancy and Soccorah sitting at the dining table looking miserable. “What the hell was that? I just transformed without even wanting too and it wasn’t a fool moon and we had a guest who saw it happen. I couldn’t catch her. She just disappeared. How is that even possible?”

“I made a potion to determine whether Luna was supernatural and you ate it instead of her. There was no time we couldn’t stop you.” Soccorah blurted out.

“What? Why would you do that? Isn’t she your friend? Now she thinks that we’re monsters well thinks that I am a monster. So much for keeping our secret. I couldn’t catch her. How do we handle this mess?” luca was angry. He was angry that they had done this without consulting him, putting everything that they had worked so hard to keep secret at risk. He was worried that Luna had told someone what happened. He was worried that she would be afraid of him. That she would never want to see him again. That hurt him the most. He was surprised at his feelings.

“Soccorah, what is she? Why couldn’t I catch up with her. Why did I lose her scent? This should not be possible. Why didn’t you tell me when you realized that she may not be human? WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL YOUR ALPHA?” he shouted making Nancy and Soccorah tremble. He stormed out of the room to inform his father of the new developments as this was serious.
