Luna On The Run!

Show Me Your Wolf



Luna Ariel’s POV

‘Where are you, my Luna? You know I can’t go on without you, I need you here, always. Remember your promise to love me forever.

I jolt awake from this dream I’ve been having for several nights. Gorgio is calling me, begging me to open the mind link and talk to him. His voice is losing strength, my absence makes him physically vulnerable.

And I miss him too. These last days have been hell, I don’t know how long I can keep going without him. His arms around me, his scent and his lips. That’s all I need. But how do I face him? Will he forgive my betrayal?

Tears roll down my cheeks like a waterfall. I can’t stop them. Era, my wolf, is exhausted, she longs for her mate as much as I do.

Gorgio!

Only when Clarita rushes towards me do I realize that I have screamed his name from the depths of my soul. I can’t hold out any longer, I have to go to him. If necessary, I will get down on my knees and ask him to forgive me. I will affirm that he is my only love, my heart beats only for him. He is my mate, I love him more than anything.

“Ariel! What is the matter? Did you have a nightmare? Who is Gorgio?” inquired Clarita, holding me in her arms.

“For several nights you have been restless and mumbling in your sleep. What is going on?”

And then I start to sob uncontrollably. I hid my face in her shoulders, seeking comfort.

“I betrayed him, Clarita. I can’t face him anymore, I don’t want to hear his rejection. But I miss him so much. I can’t keep running away from him.” I cry brokenly, the sadness sending a stab of pain through my heart.

“What do you mean? Have you cheated on him with someone else? I didn’t expect that of you, Ariel”.

She takes her hands off me and gently pushes me away. Startled, I stare at my friend, but then her words sink in.

“No, I could never sleep with anyone else. Gorgio is the only one for me, I promised him I would be faithful,” I exclaim as I throw myself around her neck again. “It’s … well, you won’t understand, Clarita.

There’s a lot you don’t know about me. It’s all very complex.”

“Well, then start telling me. If you let me know a little more about you every day, I will get wiser. Besides, I have a feeling that you and I will be together for a very long time,” she notes dryly. I smile through my tears. Clarita has such a calming effect on me.

She is so gentle, really the motherly type.

“It’s not as easy as you think. But I’ll try to explain,” I begin softly. “Did you know that werewolves exist?”

She stiffens, her eyes fixed on me.

“You’re a werewolf? Like in Twilight?” she asks, gasping. I wonder if I should confide in her. It is strictly forbidden by the Were-Laws to expose our kind to humans, only in the case of mating are we allowed to reveal ourselves.

But then I see her eyes light up, admiration washing over her face.

“Ariel, are you really a werewolf? A real one? Oh God, I knew Twilight could never be a made-up story. It all seems so well put together. I knew all these supernatural species were real”. She hugs me tighter out of sheer excitement. “You’re a werewolf, I have a werewolf girlfriend,” she exclaims.

“Hey, shut up! Do you want the entire hotel staff to burst in here with shotguns? You know how dramatic people can be,’ I scold her. The grin stays on her face as she touches my hands, probably looking for my claws. Now I have to laugh too.

“The claws only come when I shift, Clarita. I couldn’t stay in a town full of humans as a wolf.” I roll my eyes, but her curiosity remains.

“I’d still like to see your wolf. Let’s go to the forest. I want to see your wolf,” she whispers with suppressed joy. “Is Gorgio a werewolf too? Is he your mate?” With that, she sobered me up again and the memories of my nightmare resurfaced.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“Yes, he is not only my mate, but the best part of my being. Without him, my life is worthless,” I whisper now, my voice raspy. “But I betrayed him. He will never forgive me.”

Clarita takes my face and turns it towards her. “You said you didn’t cheat. Then how did you betray him?” she asks in surprise.

“I looked at another man with lust. My wolf recognized another Alpha as our mate. And this after I had promised Gorgio to be faithful to him only a few hours before.” The tears start to flow again and I try to stop them with the back of my hand.

“No, no, Ariel. As far as I understand it, it is the Moon Goddess who determines your mates, isn’t it? If Gorgio is your mate, he will know what happened to you and that you had no control over it. The important thing is that you didn’t give in to that feeling. You showed him enough respect to keep your word.

I think we should go back to your pack.”

Her last words caused me to look up. “We? You want to come with me to my pack?” I asked her in disbelief.

“Only werewolves live there, not a single human,” I tell her.

She laughs. “I want to see werewolves. But first you have to tell me more about them, what was not shown in the movies. And I want to see you as a wolf. Let’s go to the forest, I’m so curious”.

She helped me to sit up on the bed and ran to the wardrobe where she took out two large dresses.

She threw one at me and tucked herself into the other.

“I’ve been looking online for some sightseeing spots for us to visit. And I came across Hot Springs National Park. All the animals there are protected, so you don’t have to worry about being hunted if you’re in your wolf,” she tells me excitedly.

I raise an eyebrow, it seems she has been interested in my species for a long time.

“Yes, I always saw the werewolves being hunted in the films. Let’s go quickly, I can’t wait to see you change”…
