The Perfect Luna

"Careful, just a few more steps and we are there,"Gideon chuckled as he attentively led Riannon to the big surprise he prepared for her.She had a blindfold on but did not seem worried at all.Her lips were curled into a soft smile, and she was walking with confidence, holding his hands and trusting him completely.

The lycan king was looking at his beautiful wife and saying silent prayers to the Moon Goddess to thank her for such a gift.It still felt like a dream to him sometimes.He had the perfect woman who made his life perfect as well.

Sometimes he was so happy that he felt guilty, considering that many of the people around him were still dealing with the consequences of the war they had.

The war that was far from being over.Riannon tried not to grin.She was going wherever he was taking her without any kind of questioning his motives.

This was what trust was supposed to be.She felt a fresh breeze kissing her cheeks and smelled the scent of a familiar forest.She liked all this already.

Gideon stopped and stood behind her, pulling her into his embrace from the back and kissing her neck gently, making waves of tingles ripple over her body.

He then trailed the golden crescent on her marking spot with his lips and she let out a little moan, hoping 

"Ready?"he asked, his lips almost touching her ear.

"Yes," she replied playfully and he pulled her blindfold gently, taking it off.

Riannon needed a few seconds to adjust to the light, but when she did, she gasped and covered her mouth with her hand.

"Gideon...that’s..."

She breathed out, not able to finish the sentence as she was looking at their new home.

A two-storey modern house on the top of a hill in the middle of the woods.

The secret place right on the border of their two packs, where they decided to live and raise their future children.

It had stone and wood outer walls and huge glass windows with open balconies overlooking the Silver Lake, the place where they first met.

"Surprise!" he whispered and pecked her cheek.

"But how?"she was still astonished and turned to look at him.

"It wasn’t supposed to be ready for months and months!"

"I had to pull some strings," Gideon chuckled.

"Anything for my queen."

They made the decision to create this place before their wedding.

Since Riannon’s packhouse was destroyed, they needed a new one.

And they also needed to integrate their people, lycans and werewolves, into one new nation.

More houses were planned to be built nearby as this was supposed to slowly become the center of the new future kingdom.

This was the perfect location as Ria’s pack and the western kingdom’s main palace was at an equal and much shorter course, but this place… this place belonged to them.

Here, they did not have to play their usual political games and could live a much simpler life which they both craved, creating something new at the same time.

A few mixed couples had already formed.

Lycans were finding their werewolf mates thanks to the many meetings arranged by Riannon for the two species.

They knew that it would take them decades for all the changes to settle, but they both also knew very well how to be patient.

"The view here is better than I remember!"

Ria sighed and leaned with her back on her mate as his hands were wrapped around her.

"It could be better," the Lycan king smirked and pointed at a big rock in front of the building.

"I was right there when I had the best view of my life of a beautiful woman swimming naked in that very lake.Now that was a view to remember!"

"Hmm," she turned around to face him and laced her fingers into his hair to make him lower his head for a kiss, "who knows, if you behave, maybe I will swim naked for you again.Maybe I will even let you join me this time."

An internal growl left his chest, and she licked his lips gently, making them part to deepen the kiss.He grasped her tighter in his arms, devouring her greedily as always.He could never get enough of her.No matter how much time they spent together, no matter how 

"You are here!" they heard a familiar voice and Gideon growled again.

This time from the frustration of being interrupted.

"Pardon me for the intrusion."

"Ash!"

Ria smiled at her Gamma and was about to step away from her mate, but he did not let her, only pulling her closely.

"This day is full of surprises indeed!"

"You said that you had an important conversation with me, and your husband told me that you’ ll be here today, so I decided to grab that chance," Ash smiled.

They did not see much of each other lately because he was mainly working with the werewolves, while Riannon was physically mostly in the lycan kingdom, paying visits to her pack when she could.

This was one of the reasons why this place was so important.

It would make it easier to be both - a queen and an Alpha.
