The Last Royal Luna

I didn’t want to come back. What had I done? I was suppose to wait till I was 18! What will I tell my parents? How will I take back what is rightfully mine after I had done this?

“Ryder! Focus on your breathing and follow us. We need to have a long discussion and have you tell us what is going on.” Parker shouted as he pulled me off the dance floor. I could feel everyone’s eyes on me and Blue was freaking out. She wasn’t ready to take over completely and deal with the life of a human.

‘Ryder get your a*s out here before I shift in front of everyone and expose ourselves somemore!’ Blue screamed as she was trying to keep up with Parkers big steps. I knew she wasn’t kidding so I pushed myself forward finally taking back over as she slid to the back of my mind. I could tell she was calmer but she was wore out from holding back a shift and tearing those guys apart. I knew I would of enjoyed it as well but we both knew what would happen if we did.

“Ryder Come on Move faster!” I snapped my head toward Melissa as they were opening the door to the back office. I knew what was about to come and I had no idea what I was going to do. What should I tell them? What should I keep secret?

“What’s up guys?” I asked knowing I would get the eye roll from all 3 of them which I did.

“What did Andrew mean out there calling you a werewolf? Is he on drugs?” Parker asked as he sat on the couch. I knew then I could pass this off as the guys being on drugs and steroids but I didn’t’ t want to lie so much anymore.

I took a deep breath and looked at them. “Lets go ahead and go back to my place. There is something I want to tell you and show you. It will be much easier there.”

“But you will miss the rest of your party?” Natalie whined. She loved her parties and I knew she meant it as she did not want me to miss out on having some fun in my stressful life.

“I had a blast while it lasted but know all I can wonder is if they will come back or someone else will start asking all these questions that I don’t know the answer to.” I looked at all three of them seeing their disappointment, but I had to go. “Please.”

“Ok Let’s do this. We will just sneak out the back.” Melissa confirmed as we grabbed our purses and snuck out.

The drive was silent with just some music playing from the radio. No one knew what to say or do to make it better so no one did. I was in my own mind wondering how they were going to take it and how I was going to tell my parents this was happening. My mom was going to freak and I think my dad will understand. He is the less emotional of the two and he trusts me more than she does. . I can’t wait for my birthday to be over so I could find what werewolves were loyal to the crown and start fighting back to for my family.

We went thru the house and I asked my friends to go wait out back. My mom and dad were in the living room sensing my sadness.

“Just tell us what happened honey. What are you friends doing waiting outside?” My mother grabbed my dads arm waiting to hear the news.

“Andrew and his buddies happened at my party. Blue got control after they threatened my friends. I didn’t shift but they saw my eyes and called me out on it. My friends think they were on drugs but I don’t want to lie anymore. I am going to show them what I am and go from there. I just need your support.” I said as fast as I could. I knew if one of them said no I would crumble and go with what they wanted since it was easier.

“Ok honey. We will sit on the porch and wait. We can answer any questions they have after.” My dad explained and then we all headed outside. I walked down to my friends and took a deep breath.

“Guys there is something about me you don’t know. I have kept this secret my whole life and I just can’t keep it from you anymore. You three are like family and I can’t lose any of you. Please understand this is just one part of me and I am still the same person that you know and love.”

“Ryder you are scaring me. What is it? Spit it out already!” Melissa shouted with her eyes open wide.

“I am going to tell you first then show you. Please don’t make a judgement till it is all done and just know I won’t hurt you.” Before any of them could speak I went on, “I am a werewolf. I am actually the last royal werewolf there is.” I started to undress.
