Chapter 37 – I’m Your Luna
••• Kyson’s POV •••
Aleena had been blocking all Gia’s attacks without even attacking back for quite some time now, and it worried me. There were many chances for her to attack, but why didn’t she take it?
“Five minutes before shifting,” Liam said.
I saw Aleena’s slight smile, and she began her attack. Her movements were as swift as mine – a Lycan. I guessed the sparring session with Colton and me did her good.
Her punches hit Gia straight in her stomach and face without her being able to do anything about it, unable even to block or evade it.
“She’s soooo good,” Night howled with pride in my mind.
Aleena spun on her spot and delivered a kick to the side of Gia’s head, sending Gia to the ground. K. O…
The gasps and murmuring of the crowd heightened my pride for our mate. She’s so fucking hot!
“Still want to go on?” She smirked at Gia, who was still lying on the ground. Damn, she’s even smug for sending Gia to the ground.
Gia stood up and shook her head. “This is not the end yet.”
Gia began attacking Aleena recklessly, leaving so many open spots for Aleena to attack her easily.
“Time’s up! It’s time to shift!” Liam’s voice was heard again.
Gia had so many bruises on her body, yet she was still able to smirk smugly.
“You might have the upper hand in your human form, but I’ll crush you with my wolf,” Gia said with so much smug and arrogance.
Gia started to shift while Aleena just stood still with a slight smile on her face. She seemed unconcerned.
“Aleena, be careful. Gia’s wolf is one of the strongest in our pack,” I mindlinked my mate. Gia was the daughter of the Gammas; she naturally had one of the strongest wolves.
“Thank you for warning us, Kyson, but trust me. You have nothing to worry about.” I heard Aleena’s voice in my mind.
Gia had already transformed into her dark brown wolf, yet Aleena still did nothing. She even had a slight smile on her face, acting as if facing a wolf was nothing for her to worry about.
Then I saw her begin shifting. Her second shift lasted only a few seconds, and it baffled Night and me. Just last night, she was screaming in agony, and her first shift lasted for long minutes, yet now she shifted so fast as if she was used to it.
“Wow…” Night gushed out in my mind. “I don’t believe that this is only her second time shifting. It came so naturally to her, and she shifted as fast as you!”
The crowd gasped as they looked at the huge lavender wolf with silver eyes and began murmuring amongst themselves. Even Gia’s wolf cowered a little bit.
“A lavender wolf?”
“She’s as huge as an Alpha wolf!”
“And look at her aura! It can even be compared to an Alpha!”
I heard many other shocked comments about Celia from the pack members, and it made me proud.
Gia’s wolf growled at Celia. She must hate Celia so much right now. It was impossible for her not to hear those amazing comments, too.
I smirked but then turned anxious. Celia had never been in a fight before. And this was only her second shift. Is she able to fight? Is her body strong enough to block and attack Gia’s wolf? Can she move fast enough to evade Gia’s wolf?
“Kyson…” I heard Night’s nervous voice, too.
“Aleena, please be careful. If you can’t take it, then don’t force yourself,” I mindlinked Aleena again.
“You seem so eager for me to give up. Do you want Gia to be your Luna badly?” She was infuriated by my constant warning.
“No, it’s not that. You know you are my Luna, but I don’t want you to be injured,” I answered her hurriedly, not wanting her to misunderstand.
“Then trust Celia and me,” she said, still irritated.
Alright. I trust you and Celia.” I conceded defeat and told her the words she wanted to hear while hoping her self-confidence was justified.
Gia’s wolf snarled and began circling Celia, while Celia just sat on her hind legs like a puppy, watching her every move.
Suddenly, Gia’s wolf lunged forward and jumped toward Celia. Night and I thought Celia would jump sideways to evade Gia’s wolf, but to our surprise, she stood on her hind legs and blocked Gia’s wolf’s attack head-on. And she didn’t even budge an inch from her spot!
Looking at that one move, all my worries disappeared. She is strong!
Gia’s wolf jumped back and snarled again while Celia went back to sit on her hind legs again. She lunged forward again, this time attacking Celia with her claws. Celia lifted one of her front paws and slapped Gia’s wolf’s paw.
I heard shocked gasps from the crowd. Celia’s movement was fast, and she was able to slap her opponent’s paw while sitting still?
Gia’s wolf jumped back again and moved fast, going at Celia again, and Celia lifted her front legs and pushed her away.
Now, everyone was in awe, including Night and me.
“Kyson, Celia hasn’t moved an inch from her spot, right?” Night asked me in disbelief, and I couldn’t answer him. I was too stunned looking at the way Celia blocked Gia’s attacks. It was like watching someone swatting a fly.
Celia was so calm, just waiting for Gia’s attacks, and only sat still and moved the essential parts of her body to stop Gia’s attack.
“Now it’s our turn,” I heard Aleena’s voice through the mindlinked.
Celia crouched low and lunged forward with her claws out, slashing Gia’s wolf shoulder. She didn’t hold back her attack. Her claws left deep gashes on Gia’s wolf shoulders, and blood splattered from the wounds.
Gia’s wolf tried to jump back after receiving Celia’s attack, but Aleena was faster. She turned her head toward Gia’s wolf’s other shoulder and bit it. When she pulled back, we all saw chunks of bloody flesh in her mouth. Damn, she’s vicious! Her attacks were enough to immobilize her opponent, yet they were not life-threatening.
Celia jumped back and spat out the bloody flesh. Her face had a grin on it, which sent shivers down my spine. She looked playful yet evil at the same time.
Celia growled and was ready to attack again, but Gia had shifted back to her human form. Gia looked pitiful, with bloody gashes on her one shoulder and a missing chunk of flesh on the other.
She tried hard to stand up with her shaking body and admitted defeat. She knew if they were to continue, she would need to spend a long time in the pack’s infirmary.
Aleena shifted back to her human form and looked at the wounded Gia. “Now, do you know who the Luna is?”
Everyone fell silent and waited with bated breath for Aleena’s next word.
“I am your Luna,” Aleena said with confidence and a tinge of arrogance in her voice.
Her aura seeped out in full blast as she said those words, causing Gia and everyone else to lower their head and look down at the ground, and they all said in unison, “Luna.”
They didn’t look down because they were afraid of Aleena; they looked down because they respected and acknowledged her as their Luna.
“Damn, Kyson. Look at our mate! Her aura is just like an Alpha! She’s able to make everyone react the same way as when they are facing an Alpha!” Night was so awestruck by our mate.
While Night was awestruck, I only felt one thing for our mate – pride. My mate is just so… fucking amazing. Damn right, she’s their Luna!
I moved forward to stand by her side, but then I realized that she was standing buck-naked! I tore my shirt and wrapped it around her body. I looked toward my pack members and growled at the male members of my pack who had noticeable bulges on their pants!
“Everyone, let me introduce you to my mate, Aleena Bell, the Luna of Crimson Blood Pack!” I looked toward the group, and they all said, “Luna,” in unison again.
“Is there anyone who doesn’t agree with me?” I waited for Gia or anyone else to speak up but could only see the awe in every pack member’s expression as they looked at Aleena.
“Since everyone agrees for Aleena to be your Luna, I have another announcement. From now on, both I, your Alpha, and Aleena, your Luna, will be training and running with you.” I told the pack members, and they remained silent.
“Everyone is dismissed,” I told them and turned around, pulling Aleena along with me.
“Oh my Goddess, I can’t believe we have such a strong Luna!”
“Did you see the way she blocked Gia’s attack effortlessly?”
“Did you see how fast her movements were?”
“Her human form and wolf forms are both strong!”
“And she helped us with our protective spells!”
“They are going to train with us! We are going to become stronger under their guidance!”
“We will win against Andre!”
The crowd buzzed with excitement as we left.
“Aleena, you did well,” I finally praised her as we walked back toward the pack’s main house. “You were so calm; I couldn’t believe it was your first fight.”
“Thank you, Kyson. But it was Celia who fought with Gia’s wolf.” She turned back into her shy self.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Still, you amazed Night and me. And all the pack members, too. They all acknowledge you as their Luna now.” I smiled at her and patted her head.
“Thank Goddess for that,” she laughed, and I could feel her worry disappearing.
“Alpha, Luna.” Suddenly, Witch Lily appeared in front of us out of nowhere. “We need to have the talk,” she said softly.
The talk? Oh, the talk about Aleena needing to go to ‘that place’.
“I need to get Aleena cleaned up first.” Aleena was only covered by my torn shirt, and I wouldn’t want to have any conversations with anyone with her in this state.
“Alright. I’ll wait for both of you at my place,” Witch Lily said in her soft voice and left.
Aleena and I kept walking toward the pack’s main house while my mind was wandering about what kind of place Aleena needed to go to.
