The Last Royal Luna

Chapter 6



I went down to dinner in a crap mood but did my best to hide it. Mom made steak with cabbage and bacon, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, and a cupcake for dessert. Since my parents don’t have their wolves they eat as much as a regular human but she has to make extra for me. It was so good and she does the perfect medium rare for this girl.

“I am so full. I am going to take Blue for a run. I promised her early for not taking over.” I stood up and took my plate to the sink to rinse off.

“Sounds great. Make sure not to stay out too late. If you get into trouble make sure to howl and we will come running,” dad said as he took his dessert from mom and started to dig in. He really loves her desserts and he really loves her.

“Are you sure you don’t want dessert first honey?” My mom asked as she sat down next to my dad. He put his hand on her knee and looked at her smiling. I hope one day I find my mate and have this same type of respectful love they do. Although I know my luck so I will end up with a controlling douchebag that thinks I will submit. ‘Boy will he be so wrong’ Blue sayings and starts to laugh hard enough to bring tears to her eyes. I just roll mine while I stand up and take my dishes to the sink.

“Baby girl lets go outside and talk before you head out. Love I will be back in just a big and I will help with the cleanup.” Dad stands up and k****s mom on the forehead before heading toward the back door. I follow him outside and we both just stand in the middle of the yard.

“Listen, Ryder. Your mother and I love you so much and we only want the best for you. I just want you to know that on your 18th birthday a lot of things will come to light, and you will feel blindsided. We are not doing any of this to hurt you or make you hate us but to show you your true self. “He looks at me with a strange look in his eye. It looks like sadness mixed with regret and that is not something I am used to.

“What do you mean? I already know the big family secret so what else could there be? “I wring my hands together starting to get nervous and agitated.

“I can’t tell you until your 18th birthday. Just know we will always be here for you and we will always have your back. “

“I want to know now. I am sick of everything slowly coming out. I want to just rip of the band aid so I can get used to the pain and move on.” I raised my voice a bit but looking at dad I felt bad about it.

“Always impatient, aren’t we?” Dad chuckles and looks back at the house.”You will be finding out in a few days. We will make sure to tell you on your birthday. I just wanted to give you a heads up. I need to go help your mother and I want you to be safe ok?” He grabs my hands and pulls me into a hug. He knows I am a sucker for dad hugs. They make me feel safe and loved no matter what I had done.

“Fine. I will be safe. Love ya.” I pull out of his hug and walk toward the big oak tree. I start to undress as I hear the back door opening for dad to go inside. I shook my head and took off my last piece of clothing. The breeze felt so nice on my naked skin and I almost just stayed naked to walk around. “Don’t you dare, Ryder! I am coming out to run and I will be catching some dinner!’ Blue growled at me and started pushing forward. She always has to have her way and so far it has been just fine.

I start thinking about my wolf and visualizing what she looks like in my mind as fur starts sprouting from my skin. My bones start to break but I have shifted so much the pain is nothing anymore.It only takes about a minute and I am standing on all fours. Blue is a gorgeous wolf and she knows it. She is white with paws and ears black enough to have a blue tint to them. The tip of her tail is black as well. I give Blue control so she can run some anger out while I do something thinking on what my dad might be talking about.

We run all over the forest and make it to the lake. Blue swims in a few feet in order to catch a few fish and when she is full, so we lay down and look at the moon. ‘Blue, What do you think my dad was talking about?” Blue doesn’t answer right away, and I get a bit worried. “Maybe he knows our destined mate and he is a bad guy or maybe they are really robots and it is time to take us out’ she laughs at her joke. I swear she thinks she is a comedian.

Before I could discuss what I though about it I smelt the best smell in the world and looked around. It smelled like a woodsy cologne mixed with a fruit. I couldn’t put my paw on it so I took back control and stood up. I did a full turn and never saw anything but the smell was still there and just as strong. Someone had to be watching us but didn’t want us to know they were there. So I did the best thing next to shifting back, I howled as loud as I could and hoped for a howl back.
