The Lycan's Soul Mate novel Chapter 10

A few days had passed, and Luna had been going to school and occupied herself with being a normal teenage girl. Soccorah had been her only good friend for the time being. It’s not that other people didn’t want to be friends with her but in light of her change she just wanted to play it safe. She didn’t want to get close to anyone only to have them start making fun of her again like what happened in the past.

Lucian the Gym teacher had been keeping a close eye on Luna but had decided to keep his distance so as to not draw too much attention to himself or for fear that she would get spooked and tell her parents. He didn’t want to lose her again now that he had finally found her. Now with the full moon on its eve he was especially careful as his wolf wanted out and he felt powerful. He had decided to chain himself up in his basement and wait out the decent of the moon so as to not go into the woods. He had been keeping an eye on Luna to see whether with the advent of the moon she presented any other changes, but she had seemed normal and Lucian thought that the spell that Luna’s mother had cast must have been a very powerful one to keep her abilities suppressed for this long however, he was wrong.

Luna had been struggling. She’d had some bouts of rage but luckily it had not happened at school. It did not serve her well at home as her parents had thought her rebellious and were anything but forgiving and had taken away what little freedom she had left. She had kept blowing off Soccorah’s invites to her house but had finally decided to be disobedient and go to her house tonight. She smiled as she thought of it but she was also nervous like hell. She had never disobeyed her parents. But she was 17 years old and was sick of being treated like a child.

Soccorah had come to school herself today. Luca did not go to school today as he was still indecisive as to whether he would go back home to wait out the transformation or stay and have a run in the woods. Soccorah would have some alone time to practice some spells that she’d been dying to and now that the house would be empty it couldn’t be more perfect if he did leave however, she would know when she gets home. The full moon does amplify her family’s ability to practice magic.

As she walked down the hall deep in thought she slammed into Luna and the two of them both stunned apologized to each other and headed to class. “Soccorah, have you been going over the notes that I’ve been sending you?” Luna asked trying to make conversation. “Yeah, but I was kinda hoping that you would take me up on my invitation and come over to my house sometime.” Soccorah answered. “It’s not as if my family are serial killers or anything.”

Luna, startled at what just happened grabbed her bag and ran out of the Gym. She ran and ran until she found herself halfway up the mountain in the wood behind the school. “Everyone is going to look at me like a freak again. Oh my god. What have I done? I can’t go home. What if coach told someone? No one would believe him. Afterall this was not normal. They would think that he was crazy.’ She told herself out loud.

Looking at her phone she realized that it was time to go home. Getting on her parent’s bad side was not in her plans tonight. She grabbed her stuff and hurried home. She started to run and to her surprise she loved it. She felt the wind on her cheeks and the coolness of it on her skin, she felt it’s strength as it took lifted her hair off her body as he ran. She got home in under 5 minutes which was startling as she’d ran 10 miles. When she got home, she found her parents seated at the table. “What’s wrong guys?” Luna said but stopped dead in her tracks as she looked at the dark-haired, well-built man seated in her father’s chair next to the window. Her knees trembled and her eyes widened as she stared at her gym teacher seated in her house.
