The Last Royal Luna

We all drank some coffee and talked about everything. Natalie warmed up a bit after I had turned back human and we were thankful for that. She didn’t tell us what had happened to make her fear wolves including her best friend but she said one day she will. I am ok with that and so is Blue. My parents passed out on the couch around 4am so we all followed suit.

The next day we all woke up in the late afternoon to a banging on the door. I put my robe on and headed downstairs to open it. Before I made it all the way to the door my dad came running into the room while yelling, “I got it. I got it. Go back upstairs.” His voice sounded a bit either excited or scared either of which got my hackles up.

“I can get it I am closer,” I started running to the door but dad touched the handle a few seconds before mine.

“I got it. Please go back upstairs and hang out with your friends.” He told the person on the other side of the door to hold on. He smiled at me and waited.

“Dad what is going on? Are you hiding something from me? Are you scared of someone? I will kill them if they have done anything to you!” My voice got louder with every word and it made my friends come running down scared of what could be happening.

“Ryder are you ok? What is going on?” Parker was in his pj pants with my little league t-ball bat that is bright pink. I chuckled at him being so protective but also at how crazy he looked.

“Everything is fine. Dad is telling me not to open the door to this person and I want to know why. I can’t protect them if I don’t know the threat.” I looked at dad and put my hands on my h**s furious.

“Ryder dear.” My mother spoke up as she walked to be beside my dad. “There is no threat. We just need to talk to this man and he can’t know you here.” She smiled at me sweetly but before I could answer Natalie had a question.

“Ryder you said wolfs have amazing hearing so shouldn’t he have heard this whole conversation? Unless it’s a human.” Natalie look nervous asking these types of questions but I gave her a big smile and a wink. Check MATE, Bitches!

“So dad lets open the door then since they know I am here and probably who I am.”

“Damnit Ryder. How is it you listen all the other times but when I want to surprise you with something special you have to be extra nosy and protective! Fine open the damn door.” Dad stook back furious with his arms crossed. Well dang I ruined a surprise.

I opened the door and saw a handsome guy standing at the door smirking with his had up in the air. He said ‘ He came in peace’ and I busted up laughing. Seriously the male gender is a wonder to me with the things they do and say.

“Hi. Can we help you?” I had my polite face on but Blue was sniffing the air. ‘Ryder he smells good and it smells familiar. I can’t put my paw on it so stay focused.’ I told her it was a deal. We let him in and we all crowded into the living room to talk. My friends were not going to miss a surprise and now they knew the truth about all of it they are getting more protective. It makes me happy even though I know one wolf could take them down.

“Ryder this man is Jared. He knew your mother when she was a kid. He grew up with his family supplying fruit and vegetables to the royal family. I have searched for anyone to know your parents even in the slightest so you could talk about them together.” He looked at me and I could tell he was nervous that I would hate the gift but I loved it. I wrapped my arms around him and the tears started to flow.

“Thank you so much. You guys are amazing.” I gave him a k**s on the cheek and turned my attention back to Jared. “Thank you Jared for coming to see us. Anything I can learn about my mom is amazing.”

“Your very welcome. I was very surprised to hear that you made it out alive. Most of the survivors believed you to bed dead until your dad called. Now they are awaiting your return so we can return the kingdom to glory. I know that is a lot to put on your shoulders and with that I am sorry.” Jared smiled a toothy smile and it made everyone relax even with the pending stress level I will have.

“I plan on returning and taking care of busines. Those that crossed us and killed thousands of us will pay with their lives. Blue and I will do what ever is needed to return everything the way it should be.” We growled that last part as our eyes glowed purple. My friends gasped at my eyes and ended ups staring.

“Your eyes glow purple. Why is that?” Melissa asked as she finally leaned back and relaxed. Before I could answer Jared did for me. I am glad he did since I honestly had no idea.

“It is one of the ways to know if the wolve is royal. When they are experiencing high emotions mostly anger or love their eyes glow purple. I am glad to hear you will be returning. Do you know when so I can get something set up since everyone wants to meet you?” Jared got his phone out to add a date to his calendar. I laughed and he stared at me.

“Sorry I haven’t seen anyone use that old app on a phone before. Usually we download the newer versions that have cool side functions. Anyway I turned eighteen tomorrow so I will be a bit safer and I need to finish high school plus train so sometime this summer I will be there. I would love to meet anyone who has planned a war before first so we can get started to fight back.” I stared at him wondering if he was a warrior now or if he did what his parents did. I am hoping some warriors survived so I didn’t have to train all newbies.

“I added it all in and I will make sure we have some people with experience so we can get started asap. Before I leave I will get your number and I will call with any information I have so we can start early. Now I am here to tell you about your mother. Any specific questions?”

“No I just want to hear everything and thank you again for everything.” I grabbed my parents hands and waited to finally connect with my mother. My parents knew some things but It was from a servant position since they are omegas who worked in the kitchen and on the grounds.”
