His Mermaid Luna novel Chapter 8

I didn't know how to feel about that, and I felt my heart rate increase, but I just brushed it off.

"Do you eat people?" I ask stupidly, earning a loud laugh from him.

My face flushes red with embarrassment and I bend my head down, trying to hide it.

"No, I don't." The man said after laughing and I saw a fraction of a smile appear on his face.

He seemed like the guy that rarely smiles, from his intimidating height, voice, and attitude.

"Uhm..." I ask thinking of other questions.

He's...he really must be a werewolf. My father told me they weren't real...only vampires were and werewolves were a made up race, like the tooth fairy or something.

I sit for a few moments, silent in thought.

"Why are you telling me this...? Why am I here..?" I ask finally, coming out of my cloud of thought.

The man's eyes seemed to light up upon hearing this and I saw that fraction of a smile return.

"Because you're my mate."

I honestly think I got whiplash from the speed at which my head whipped towards him.

"N-no it's not."

"Yes, you are baby, your mine." The man said before lowering his head to my neck, breathing in my scent.

I pushed him back and gave him a confused, and angry glare.

"I'm not your mate! I cant be!... Can I?"

"Believe it." The man said as he looked down at me.

I tried to push him away and stand up, but he continued to hold onto me, not letting me go. His eyebrows knit together in confusion as he held me down while I tried to get away from him.

"What are you doing?" The man asked.

"I'm not your mate! I need to go back home! Let go of me!"

The man growled before yelling, "MINE", his voice booming throughout the room before he slammed me into his chest as he wrapped his arms around me.

I was stunned by his sudden outburst, and to be honest a little scared.

After a few minutes, the man's breathing returned to normal but he continued to hold me against his chest. I licked my dry lips nervously as he continued to not say anything or move.

Interrupting my thoughts, he suddenly held me out at arm's length and looked at me, his eyes back to their beautiful green color.

"Do you believe me?"
