Princess of the Werewolves novel Chapter 74

I laughed. "Put him on the phone" I heard rustling as Shawn gave Matthew his phone.

"Eeeeeeeve" Matthew said while dragging out the 'e.'

A smile made its way on my face. "Hey, baby. Its bedtime; you're supposed to be sleeping" I told him.

"But I wanted to talk to you" he whispered. "I miss you" he sniffled, informing me that he's crying.

"I miss you too, sweetie. But remember what I said. Its only for a few days, Asher and I will be back soon" I assured him.

There was a pause before Matthew spoke. "Okay" he said quietly. He sounds so sad. I hate it. I feel like I need to be with him all the time. I don't want him to get lonely, and I want to spend as much time with him as possible. I almost lost him once, and I'll do everything in my power to make sure I don't lose him.

I sighed. "Go to bed now; and I'll talk to you tomorrow. I love you"

"I love you too" he said before hanging up. I slid my phone back into my pocket and ran my hand down my face. I noticed that it was really quiet.

I turned around and saw that all the girls were staring at me. "Uh... Why are you guys looking at me?" I asked uncomfortable. They all looked at each other, then back at me. No one said anything. "So?" I said slowly.

Belle sighed and stepped forward. "You have a kid" she whispered.

"What?" I asked.

"A kid. You have a kid" Tessa stated.

A kid? I shook my head. "I don't have a kid"

Peyton nodded. "You don't have to lie" The rest of the girls nodded in agreement.

"I don't have a kid"

"Does Asher know?" Ariel questioned.

I sighed. "I don't have a kid" I insisted.

"We just heard you on the phone" Bea informed me.

"I don't have a kid!" I shouted frustrated.

"Who has a kid?" Brian asked. I turned and saw Asher and him walking in from the back door.

I face palmed. "No one has a kid" I muttered.

"I think Asher and Eve should talk" Belle announced.

"He won't" Asher cut me off. "He hasn't stopped calling me 'Alpha.' And arguing won't stop him" Asher informed me.

I nodded. "Well, then I just ask that you call me 'Luna,' if you insist on formalities. You are part of my pack, I wish you would call me by my name, but if anything, just 'Luna" I rambled.

Dr. Nale chuckled. "Alright, Luna. I suppose Asher has told you what this is about?" he asked.

I shook my head. Asher was extremely vague. "He just said that it was bad news"

The doctor nodded. Brian began to walk out the room, but Asher stopped him. "You can stay. As long as Eve doesn't mind" he said looking at me for confirmation.

"I don't mind" I said slowly. Why are they acting weird?

After Brian sat back down, Dr. Nale started talking. "We know about the message"

"What message?" I questioned.

Dr. Nale pulled out a small notebook from his back pocket and handed it to me. "There is a bookmark" he stated.

I opened the leather book and saw the message. It was the same one that the Moon Goddess gave me. The one that was extremely cryptic and confusing. "Where did you get this?" I asked Dr. Nale.
