True Luna

True Luna by Tessa Lilly (The Unknown Magic) The White Wolf Series Book 4 —- CHAPTER FIFTEEN — Furious (Hunter’s POV)

My family was a bit surprised but thrilled that | found my mate. | could tell that my dad struggled with the idea of Emma’s daughter being my mate, but he was happy for me.

A huge smile spread across my face. I’d never been happier. | understood Sophia’s need to take a little bit of time to think everything through, but | knew everything would work out.

| stood up and walked toward the door. | needed to go find her. | already missed her. | wanted to spend some more time with her and get to know her a bit better. We both wanted to talk to our families, but now that that was done, | was more than ready to spend some time with my mate. | could maybe even k*iss her again.

‘You have to k*iss her again,’ Holden sighed longingly. | chuckled and stepped out into the hallway. | assumed that Sophia was in her mom’s office. | left her there less than half an hour ago.

| had a huge smile as | approached Luna Emma’s office. Her scent was strong here and it relaxed me immediately. | took a deep breath, enjoying the shivers that went up and down my spine.

| was just in front of Alpha Logan’s office when | heard something that made me furious.

| barely managed to keep Holden from coming out and tearing the whole place down.

“I still think that there is a chance he could be her cursed mate,” a voice

said.

Cursed mate?!

As in not real?! Someone thought that there was another man out there that would try to take her from me?! Cursed like my father was Luna Emma’s cursed mate?!

My heart raced and my vision blackened.

No!

F*uck no!

She was mine and | was hers! There wasn’t anyone else who could claim her. There wasn’t another man who could take her from me.

Before | even realized what | was doing, | burst through the door, growling and glaring at everyone inside.

“She. Is. Mine!” | exclaimed, emphasizing every word.

They were staring at me wide-eyed. No one spoke a word.

“lam not her cursed mate!” | shouted as my body started shaking. “She is mine and won't let you take her away from me!” “Alpha Hunter, no one is trying to take her from you,” Luna Emma spoke softly.

| didn’t believe her.

Did they tell Sophia that | could be her cursed mate? Did she think that too? Holden whined. My heart broke. | felt like something heavy was sitting on

my c*hest.

| looked around the room for the first time since | barged in. My Angel wasn’t here. Where was she?

“Where is she?” | asked as the lump in my throat grew.

| looked back at Luna Emma.

“She is in my office,” she said softly. “She is with her brother.”

“She is mine,” | told her. “This isn’t a curse. You broke it. This can’t be a curse.”

Luna Emma approached me and took my hand in hers. Someone growled quietly.

| felt the anger inside me grow. These people didn’t trust me. They would never trust me.

“lam sorry, Alpha Hunter,” Luna Emma said softly. “We are all just a little bit shocked and scared.”

Why were they scared? | would never hurt Sophia. Goddess, just thinking about hurting her was painful.

“| would never hurt her,” | mumbled, trying to swallow the lump in my throat.

| couldn't decide which emotion was dominating. | was both equally angry and sad.

“Maybe you wouldn't, but your father might,” someone said, making me look up.

It was Sophia’s cousin. He was staring at me with a pissed-off look on his face.

The anger started winning over.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“My father would never hurt her,” | said, clenching my free fist. “He would never do something like that to me.” “Your father almost killed my mom and me!” the man shouted, taking a step closer to me.

| saw ftucking red. | let Luna Emma's hand go and took a step closer to the man.

“My father changed,” | growled. “He isn’t the same man anymore. He was cursed. He would have never done it if he wasn’t.” Someone pulled me back. Another man stood between Sophia’s cousin and me. The man pushed Sophia’s cousin back. “We are not going to do this,” a man holding me said sternly.

| looked behind me and saw it was Alpha Logan.

He let me go and gave me a stern look.

“| will not allow him to insult my father,” | said, clenching my fists. “Il am sorry, Alpha Hunter, but your father almost killed my mother,” the man said, making me look back at him. “I can’t have respect for that man. | can’t trust him or you.”

My heart clenched painfully. Did Sophia feel like that too? Did she also think that my father was a horrible person?

“My dad changed,” | said. “He turned his life around. He is a good person and a great father. | am so sorry for what happened, but he would never hurt anyone. He would never hurt Sophia.”

| could see Sophia’s cousin’s jaw twitching. He clenched his fists and took a deep breath.

“Mason, honey, | know that you are worried and scared, but we can’t judge Alpha Hunter based on his father’s mistakes,” a woman said softly.

| looked at her and | could tell that she was Mason’s mother. So she was the woman my father threatened.

“Hunter?” | heard my Angel's voice and | turned around abruptly.

| didn’t even hear her approaching the office. | was so focused on my anger and pain that | didn’t even hear my mate coming. Her voice and her presence took every ache away.

| rushed toward her, pulling her into my arms. The tingles and sparks made me shiver. Her scent surrounded me and | relaxed immediately.

“What happened?” she asked softly as she rubbed my back gently. Her t*ouch was all | needed to calm down.

| couldn't even answer her. | closed my eyes and buried my nose in her hair. | took a deep breath and let her scent fill my lungs.
