The Lycan's Soul Mate novel Chapter 41

It had been a week since Luca had laid his father to rest and since Luna had seen him. He had been away from the pack as was tradition. He had taken the week to remain in seclusion and do what ever ritual was necessary to take over however back at the pack there were whispers of his inability to sit on the throne as others wanted to contest.

Luna’s abilities continued to grow. Her strength had multiplied, her vision impeccable and her hearing was sooo much better. She had been training in the private Gym to keep the pack members from seeing what she could do. She didn’t trust anyone as there were whispers about challenging Luca. She was going to be strong enough to support Luca. She was his mate and that did not only mean that she was only good to satisfy him sexually, but she needed to be an equal, a partner.

She had missed Luca so much it hurt but she knew that he had responsibilities. Those responsibilities she would share when they marry. She felt that she could take on any member of the pack and they were strong. If she had to fight to prove her worth, then she would. She was the Lycan’s mate and to be queen. She needed to prove her superiority if it came to it.

Luna had done everything that she could to prepare herself to receive Luca when he returned. He had not even told her that he was leaving. He’d only been able to leave a note. She did not want to mind link him to not distract him from what he was to do. She remembered how he had rushed to her side the last time she did it not knowing that it was possible. He had gotten to her in the woods thinking that she was in danger. She didn’t want to summon him like that. She missed him so much it was as if her body was craving him.

“Luna, get a hold of yourself.” She said out loud. She was the same Luna who had lived her whole life alone never having many friends, and there she was needing Luca. Ever since her first transformation when she’d seen him in her dream she was lost. She had changed. She needed him. She needed to feel his arms wrapped around her. She needed his warm embrace. She needed to look into his beautiful eyes and to feel his lips cover hers.

“Ahh,” she groaned as she realized that it was getting late and that she had to go get ready for dinner. “Damn you luca. Couldn’t you have told me how you feel after you returned?” she thought to herself as she smiled. “My Alpha, my king, My mate. Where are you? I need you now.” She got into the shower and ran the warm water hoping that it would calm her.

Nina’s father opened his mouth to speak but Luca shouted, “DON’T INTERRUPT ME!”

“Everyone who feels that they have a claim to the throne, everyone who thinks that they can overthrow me OUTSIDE NOW! I challenge you to a fight. The only way you will get to the throne is through me.” With that he let out a growl that shook the palace and headed outside.

Luna looked at him with longing. He transformed and took on the first second and third of the lot without even trying. The other opposers bowed down to him realizing that they never stood a chance. “Let it be known that to challenge the Lycan Prince is to challenge the gods. I am not my father. I will not tolerate treason nor insubordination. As of now it is safe for the crescent moon pack to return to their lands if the see it fit. The problem of the witch will be sorted in good time. I take my leave as I have other matters to attend too.
