Rogue Luna novel Chapter 8

My wolf spirit and I did often fight about one thing and that's what would happen if we were to find our mate but it was never about our independence and freedom. It was like now that we have found Damien she's ready to forget all of that and assume the role of a Luna just because he is an Alpha. I always assumed my mate would also be a rogue and we would be able to go off together free and still independent but now that she has connected with Damien, she never wants to leave his side.

The fact that I could simply melt into his arms from a single touch or instantly calm my senses with his smell angered me. The way my body reacted to him was almost like 2nd nature, like we belonged together and it disgusted me. Like I had no choice in this whatsoever. I didn't want the lives of many being my responsibility nor did I want someone ordering me around. I finished my shower and hopped out as I grabbed a towel to dry myself off. I looked back into the mirror and smiled, it's been a while since I've been able to see a clear reflection of myself. The white streaks in my hair were now prominent and stood out. My face was much clear and brighter but slightly red from the heat of the shower. I walked out of the bathroom and noticed Damien was no longer in the room and there were clean clothes folded neatly on the bed. I quickly changed into them and ran over to the door to see if it were locked and surprisingly it wasn't. I opened it revealing Damien leaning against the wall waiting patiently for me.

"So I was right to think that you would check and see if the door was unlocked although I'm kind of disappointed that I'm right," He lightly chuckled as he shook his head.

"So why didn't you lock it then instead of toying with me?" I asked frustrated as I tapped my foot against the floor.

"I thought I would show you around the pack today, I don't have any meetings or serious business plus I imagine you're tired of being stuck in the room," He said.

I simply shrugged my shoulders, either agreeing nor denying.

I followed alongside him as he led me around me the territory, showing me all the different buildings and sights but to my surprise the pack was a lot bigger than I thought it was. He toured me around the lake, pack house, recreational center, town hall, and finally the gym. My excitement began to grow once we reached the gym because I always used to love watching the warriors train when I was younger before I had to run away. I always told myself ai would grow up to be strong like that.

We walked inside and there stood Blake, helping a woman work on her attack stance. He looked up at us and waved cheerfully before excusing himself from the woman and jogging over.

"I don't think I've probably introduced you two yet, Iris this is my Beta Blake Redfern, Blake this is my mate Iris," Damien introduced.

I gave a grimace of disgust as he introduced me as his mate.

Blake raised his hand expecting me to shake it but I just looked at it with confusion. I wanted no parts of him, especially at the fact that he was the one who attacked me.

"Iris I apologize for attacking you, I was just doing my duties as the Beta of the pack, there was no personal motives honestly. I wouldn't dare hit a woman if I didn't have to," He held his hand up to his forehead in a dramatic pose and closed his eyes, occasionally looking at me to see if he got a reaction out of me.

I just nodded my head and turned away as I heard Damien chuckle and walk next to me.

"You don't talk much do you?" He asked as we exited the gym.

"All I've had is my wolf to talk to in my mind, I haven't had much contact with others in the neutral zone because other wolves there are either trying to kill you or steal from you," I said.

"Are you hungry?" He asked, quickly trying to change the subject.

"Yeah I guess, I mean the last time I had a decent meal was when I had that deer a few days ago," I chuckled, attempting to be humorous but failing royally as I looked up to see the awkward expression on Damien's face.

We walked back to the pack house where Damien forced to sit sit down and wait while he cooked me a meal, not that I was complaining since I didn't really know how to cook.
