The Perfect Luna
Chapter 43: Guilt
Maya was crying quietly all the way down until the Lycan kingdom and Reid didn’t know what to do. She did not show it to him and neither did she sob or weep, but her eyes were red and puffy and she was wiping them with her palms every few seconds as she turned away to stare at the window.
He never wanted a mate in the first place, never looked for one. And when he saw how finding a mate changed his best friend Gideon, he decided to stay away from wolf mingling events and stick to the she-wolves he already knew, considering them safe options. Luckily, there were quite a few who were always ready to keep him company.
It was supposed to be for the best. He wasn’t a family man anyway. Maybe a funny uncle
material. But this was it. He was a Beta and needed his focus on his work at all times.
Yet when he first sensed this amazing scent of almonds and something floral that evoked everything feral and primal inside of him within seconds, all his rules and self-taught mantras went to hell. He struggled for a few minutes in his car, trying to talk himself out of going there and finding his mate. But gave in rather quickly under the pressure from his wolf, Nox, who was eager to meet their mate.
He had to see her too; had to know who she was.
And when he saw her with another man who tried to hurt her, all his instincts flared up. It was a done deal. That woman was his and he wouldn’t let anyone touch her, let alone hurt her.
He disobeyed his king’s orders for the first time ever and left Riannon behind without any
support. Before that, they planned for him to stick around with her as a representative of the Lycans on the pretense of helping her with their new law project. That would allow him to be there to protect her if needed as it was required from their positions. She was already his Luna regardless of being marked and married to some annoying werewolf Alpha.
And now his Luna was on her own.
It was her silent order, of course, to take her best friend out of this place. For some reason, she considered that more important than their initial plan and he decided to trust her instincts as Maya’s safety suddenly became of prime importance to him too.
But he knew that he would pay for this. Because Gideon trusted him what he treasured the most and he failed his Alpha and his king.
“It’s going to be okay,” he decided to try and break the ice but his mate snapped her head in his direction and glared at him with the intention to kill. As if he was at fault before her. Which he wasn’t.
sense that his mate was using her snarky attitude to hide how worried she had been inside. And he could understand that. He liked Riannon a lot, but she was new in his life. If he had to leave Gideon in the sea full of sharks, he wouldn’t be happy too. He couldn’t be happy now either. The guilt was washing over him in waves. But it had already been done and he had to trust Riannon with this one. Hopefully, she knew
