SWNOVELS True Luna: The Unknown Magic: Chapter 30
Hunter’s POV
I knocked on the door and took a deep breath.
I talked to my dad a few minutes ago. They were about half an hour away. I was nervous but excited. I knew that everything would go well. My parents and Harry were so excited to meet Sophia. My mom was nervous and she kept asking me what she should wear. As if I knew anything about that.
“Come in,” I heard Alpha Logan’s voice.
I opened the door and smiled as soon as my eyes landed on Sophia.
But something was wrong. Something was terribly wrong.
My smile dropped instantly and I rushed to her.
“What happened?!” I exclaimed as I pulled her from Alexander.
She was pale and there were small beads of sweat on her forehead. She was so freaking cold and I could tell that she was exhausted.
My heart was going a mile a minute. What the hell happened to her?
“She had some issues with her darkness,” Luna Emma said as she rubbed her back gently.
Cold shivers ran down my spine. I looked her up and down. Was it always this bad?
“Oh, my Angel,” I mumbled as I pulled her into a tight hug. “Is there something I could do?”
“I am better now,” she mumbled. “Thank you.”
I looked at Alexander. He had a worried look on his face. He looked exhausted too.
“Are you okay?” I asked him.
He tightened his jaw and nodded. He kept his eyes on Sophia the entire time.
“I am okay now that she is better,” he mumbled.
I tried to take a deep breath, but it was so freaking hard. I was so scared. Why did she have issues with it again? How did it look? Would I know how to help her if it happened while I was around? Would she let me help her?
I kissed the top of her head and breathed in her scent. It soothed me a little.
“You should eat something, Fia,” Alexander said.
“I am not hungry,” she mumbled.
Her voice came out all muffled because her head was buried into my chest.
“I know, but you still need to eat,” Alexander sighed.
“Come on, Angel,” I said as I placed another kiss on the top of her head. “You need to eat. Something small at least.”
She tightened her arms around me and took a deep breath.
“I will make breakfast,” Luna Emma said, making me look at her. “Are you hungry, Hunter?”
“No, thank you,” I said, giving her a small smile. “I ate at the packhouse. Coffee would be nice, though.”
“Sure,” Luna Emma said, smiling back at me.
I glanced at Alpha Logan and Alexander.
“Could we have a moment alone, please?” I asked, tightening my arms around Sophia.
Alpha Logan nodded. Alexander didn’t move or say anything. I could tell that he was reluctant to leave.
Alpha Logan sighed, grabbed his upper arm, and started pulling him away.
“I will be in the kitchen if you need me, Fia,” Alexander said and I could hear a hint of panic in his voice.
Sophia turned around and nodded.
“I am okay,” she said. “We will be right there.”
As soon as Alpha Logan and Alexander left the living room, I pulled Sophia to the couch. I sat down and pulled her onto my lap.
“What the hell happened, my love?” I asked her as I cupped her cheeks.
She was still so pale and so cold. My heart was breaking inside my chest.
She furrowed her eyebrows and bit her lower lip. I caressed her cheeks with my thumbs. Her skin was so soft and I enjoyed how it felt against my fingertips.
“It happens sometimes,” she said quietly. “The darkness tries to take control, but I always manage to push it back.”
I looked at her perfect lips. I wanted to kiss her.
“Does it always get this bad?” I mumbled as I leaned in and brushed my lips against hers.
She shivered in my arms and a small smile spread across my face. I loved seeing the effect my touch had on her.
“Sometimes,” she mumbled as she leaned in and kissed me.
I smiled against her lips. I loved kissing her. I loved that she was the one who kissed me. It meant that she wanted me. I still couldn’t believe it.
She pulled back and ran my nose up and down her jaw.
“Did Alexander help you?” I asked her as I placed a small kiss on her neck.
“He always does,” she said. “He is the only one who can help me. He is the only one who knows how to.”
I looked up at her and caressed her cheek again.
“He will have to teach me how to do it,” I said softly.
I needed to know how to help her once she moved to my pack. I needed to know what to do and how to handle the situation. I needed to talk to Alexander about it.
Sophia gulped and hugged me tightly.
“Will your family be here soon?” she asked quietly.
I hugged her back tightly. I placed a hand on the back of her head, holding her close to me.
“They are close to the border,” I said as I buried my nose into her hair.
“Okay,” Sophia mumbled. “I will freshen up.”
“Mhm,” I mumbled, not moving an inch.
I didn’t want to let her go. I wanted to stay like this forever.
“I can’t go if you don’t let me go,” Sophia said with amusement in her voice.
“I really don’t want to,” I sighed as I tightened my arm around her waist.
She rubbed my back gently. Tingles ran down my spine and into my legs. It was such a pleasurable feeling.
“I will be right back,” she said as he placed a small kiss on my neck.
I grunted and lifted my head. “You are not helping. Now I just want you to stay here and continue kissing me like that.”
Sophia chuckled and shook her head.
“There will be time for that,” she said, making me grin.
Oh, yes. There would be time for everything. I would caress and kiss every fucking part of her perfect little body. I couldn’t wait to do that. I couldn’t wait to make her mine in every way possible.
My phone rang, making my heart skip a beat.
My family had arrived at the border.
