Luna Lola-The Moon Wolf

Lola’s POV

I went to sit down beside Adrian and he pulled me into his side immediately I was seated. He sniffed my hair and breathed out contentedly. I smiled and looked up at him through my lashes, “what are you doing. Alpha?” I asked and he gave me a boyish grin. “Taking in the lovely scent of my mate and making sure you don’t ever leave my side”, he pulled me impossibly closer and placed a k*ss on my forehead.

I kinda like the forehead k*sses from him, they give me reassurance and make me feel safe and protected. “What do you think Rose is going to talk about?” I asked him and he shrugged. “I don’t know, baby. We’re about to find out”. he responded.

I knew deep down inside me that I wasn’t going to like the discussion. Nothing has been going fine in the pack for a week or so, I wasn’t expecting her to announce a party or something. I suddenly felt bad for making them toil in the kitchen, especially Lyla who was pregnant, while I lounged around.

I made to stand up but Adrian pulled me against him. “No, you’re not going in there”, he said huskily and I rolled my eyes at him. “Don’t catch an attitude with me, princess, or there will be consequences”, he whispered the last part in my ear,making me shudder in pleasure.

I cleared my throat before I spoke again. “But they’re cooking while I’m seated. I’m really not comfortable with that idea”, i tried to argue but he wasn’t having any of it. “They know you’re just recovering and that’s why no one is going to say anything. Now, you’ll sit your pretty as s down while they cook. I’m sure they will chase you if you go

anyways”, he said with so much confidence that made me want to smack him in the back of his head. “I’ll go and see that for myself”, I argued and he allowed me to stand up, smirking at me.

Lyla was the first to spot me when I entered the kitchen. She dropped what she was holding and placed her hands on her waist. “What do you think you’re doing, girl?” She asked with a raised eyebrow. I looked at her sheepishly before looking down at my fingers. When I finally looked up, three pairs of eyes were on me, waiting for

“I came here to lend a helping hand to you ladies”, I said with a bright smile, hoping to convince them. “No one asked for your help, pumpkin”. Rose was one who spoke up now. “Yeah, Lola”, Avianca chipped in. “no one asked for your help. You just escaped a near death experience so you need to rest”, she said and I pouted.

“So did Rose, and she’s still here in the kitchen”, I argued weakly. “I’ve been awake for 3 days, pumpkin, it doesn’t count. You just got discharged, so you should go back and rest without feeling guilty”, she dismissed me and got back to work.

Adrian was smirking when I went back into the sitting room. He was about to open his mouth but I glared at him. “Don’t you dare say a word”, I said. “I told you so”, he teased me, disregarding my warning.

“Come here”, he opened his arms wide and I reluctantly walked towards him. I straddled him and he wrapped his hands around me. Just then, Jasmine decided to rear her h orny, wolfish head.

“I just want to eat him up, he smells so good and amazing”, she purred to which I rolled my eyes. “Yeah, I know he smells amazing but can your h orny as s tone it down? It’s not really the time for this”, I chastised her.

my mate?” She asked. “It’s not a crime at all, Jasmine”, Adrian answered and I became red with embarrassment, making him laugh lowly. “Stop listening to my thoughts”, I mumbled. “Keep me out of them, then. I can’t help but overhear your conversations with Jasmine. She has to be the most amazing wolf I’ve ever seen”, he complimented her to which she purred in my head.

Sometimes, I don’t know if I have a wolf or a cat with the rate at which this wolf purrs.

Rose came into the sitting room to announce that food is ready. My stomach used that moment to growl loudly, making me red with embarrassment. Adrian stood up with my legs around his waist and my hands around his n*eck and carried me to the dining area despite my protest.

He set me down and sat beside me while Avianca and Lyla made different eyes at me. I resisted the urge to poke out their eyes with a fork and just went on eating.

“You look so cute together, I’m so glad you found true love”, Lyla’s voice rang in my head and I smiled a little. Lunch wasn’t like it used to be. Rose’s normal chattering was reduced and the tension was there. It was almost like everyone was trying not to talk the wrong way, lest it upsets Rose. Even Adrian was just trying to be fine, I could see it in the way he would do out some times and his eyes didn’t light up at the dining table like it used to.

The girls and I did the dishes after we finished eating. Everyone tried to protest but I was really bent on helping out so I got my way. I washed, Avianca rinsed and Lyla dried it. I decided to bring up Lotana’s strange behaviour earlier as we worked.

“Am I reading too much into it or is Lotana acting strange?” I asked. and it was like the wind became still. Lyla sighed before speaking, “to be very honest, she’s been acting weird and all. She hasn’t found her

mate and it must be taking a toll on her. That’s what I chalked it up to”, she said and Avianca nodded in agreement.

“She hasn’t found her mate? I thought she wasn’t of age yet, we did not even do a coming of age ceremony for her”, I was shocked by this information. How was I not informed?

“It was during that time that you were asleep for a week after the whole fiasco with Fay. She said she did not want a coming of age ceremony since you were on sick bed, so it was cancelled”, Avianca explained.

“We could have held it after I woke up. Why was I not informed?” I asked. feeling guilty. “She specifically requested that you shouldn’t be told because she knows you’re going to carry the guilt on you head”, Lyla explained and i sighed.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“But lately, she’s been super weird and secretive. I hope she’s going up to us soon”. Lyla finished and I sighed. I felt bad that she had to cancel her most important day because of me.

We wrapped up the dishes and went into the sitting room where Rose was silently crying while being comforted by Adrian. I ran towards them and knelt down in front of her.

“Rose, what’s wrong? What’s the matter with her, Adrian? I asked worriedly.

“I saw him. I saw the rogue king”, she hiccuped through her tears.
