The Perfect Luna

Chapter 18: Not Greedy

Riannon froze with the lycan’s hand still on her neck when she saw her Beta baring his canines at the two of them. What was he thinking? This was offensive to any lycan and the one next to her was their king for Goddess’ sake!

“Do you have a problem?” Gideon angled his head to look at the intruder, still not taking his hand off Ria’s neck. He looked absolutely unbothered on the surface, but the Luna did not let herself be fooled. She could feel fury radiating from his body. Fury and something else. She couldn’t get what it was though.

But she knew one thing – Ash was in big trouble now.

“Yes, I have a problem,” he said, clenching his fists, “You have your hands on my Luna and I demand…”

It was just one second and Riannon felt cold as the king’s arms left her. One second and he already stood next to Ash with his fingers locked around the Beta’s neck, lifting him in the air as if he weight nothing and making her gasp. She knew very well that lycans were faster and stronger. But she couldn’t even imagine that the difference was so vast. If they ever had to fight for any reason then werewolves would have zero chances at winning.

Ash was now making gurgling sounds and Ria hurried to the two men.

“Please, no!” she begged the king and he looked at her unexpectedly softly.

“He was insolent,” Gideon tried to explain to her but seeing a spark of fear in her eyes brought him back to his sense. He was doing it again. Making the wrong impression on her. All he wanted was to find out why she did not feel him and make her used to his presence in his life, but he was showing her this feral side of him. Instead of the one, she could potentially be attracted to.

So, he placed the Beta back to his feet, even though in reality he wanted to snap that neck of his. He never let anyone doubt him in his life except for his sister and Reid. And if anyone did…

“Please, forgive him, Your Majesty,” her formal voice was cutting his ears. No, no, no. This was wrong.

“Gideon,” it slipped off his tongue faster than he realised, and he met her widened eyes.”

Don’t forget that we are not using formalities anymore,” he cleared his throat.

“Of… course,” she mumbled, not knowing how to behave now.

“Luna!” Ash tried to gather himself, still panting. But before he managed to say anything, she gave him the look. The one that meant, shut up now or I will not be able to help you next

“Did anything happen?” she tried to change the subject, “Were you looking for me?”

“Yes,” he practically gritted through his teeth, adjusting his shirt that now looked all crumpled and stuck out of his jeans, “The mail came.”
