Chapter 17 the Catastrophe
Just as Luca and Nancy got into the Kitchen a loud noise was heard of dishes breaking and a
monstrous growl from the kitchen. Luna instinctively got up and ran to the kitchen and Soccorah could
not stop her. When she entered the Kitchen, she saw a bewildered Nancy standing in front of the wolf
from her dream. She couldn’t believe her eyes. She was so surprised. The wolf growled angrily in her
direction. He seemed confused.
Nancy shouted at Soccorah “What are you waiting for Stun her.” Luna shocked at what just happened
turned to see Soccorah’s eyes turn pink and started to wave her hand in Luna’s direction. Luna pushed
her and ran out the house. She burst through the front door and ran as fast as she could in human form
away from the house. She could feel the wolf following her. She ran until she’d lost him.
“Why did they try to hurt her. Why did Luca Growl at her like he wanted to hurt her? She thought that
she’d found a friend in Soccorah but she betrayed her. What the hell was she anyway? Pink eyes?
What the fuck was all that about.” Luca whom she was attracted to and thought to be the love of her life
was now chasing her down. She’d just tried getting away from her adopted parents who kept her from
her only living family only to throw herself into the mouths of wolves and whatever the hell Soccorah
was.
She couldn’t go home as she didn’t want to face her parents now. She also didn’t want to risk Luca
following her home. What can I do she thought to herself? Where can I go? She then remembered that
her uncle had told her that she could always count on him when she needed answers. She headed to
his house. She knocked anxiously and persistently on his door.
Lucian came to open the door and was surprised to see a shaking Luna standing there. “Luna, come
inside. What happened? Why so scared?” he asked with a concerned tone. Luna buried her head onto
his huge chest and started to cry. Lucian sat her down and got her a cup of tea. Luna proceeded to tell
her uncle what had happened.
Lucian was quite surprised that there were ware wolves living in Attica. From what Luna had said
Soccorah must be a Fay. He had not been able to detect her scent. She must be protected. Lucian
went o to tell Soccorah of her heritage and why she shouldn’t fear any creature ware wolf or fairy alike.
He told her how she had inherited her grandmother’s gift and she only needed to accept it to be able to
allow the gifts to evolve with her.
You are my family now Luna. We fear no one. We hold back our power out of respect for the alpha of
our pack as we only want to have a normal life. But no alpha can compare to the strength which you
have inherited Luna. When you are marked by your mate You will reach the height of your power.
Whichever pack alpha is mated to you is truly blessed by the goddess.
He sat Luna down and explained what had happened to her parents. That he had only recently found
the witch who framed her mother set all of the tragedy that befell their family in motion. He had to leave
for the pack to exercise judgement. He told her that he could get her time off school if she wanted to
come with him. After that was taken care of, she could train with the pack. That way she would
definitely not freak out when faced with a situation like what happened tonight.
Luna agreed but was still confused about what had happened with Luca. She proceeded to tell him
about her dream. She felt comfortable with him. She sat and thought what her life would have been like
had he raised her instead of her stepmom and dad. She felt so safe and relaxed not like when she was
thinking why he was constantly staring at her. That was creepy.
Lucian realized after listening to Luna’s explanation about her experience and dreams of Luca since
her transformation that she had found her mate. He wanted to tell her but thought he’d give her some This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
time to get used to being a wolf first. He was so happy to have found his niece. “Well, those dreams
were very vivid but I’m afraid that I leave tomorrow for the pack and if you want to join me in the
morning you will have to get packed. I will accompany you so we need to get some sleep.” With that
they both went to bed.
Luca went back to the house to find Nancy and Soccorah sitting at the dining table looking miserable.
“What the hell was that? I just transformed without even wanting too and it wasn’t a fool moon and we
had a guest who saw it happen. I couldn’t catch her. She just disappeared. How is that even possible?”
“I made a potion to determine whether Luna was supernatural and you ate it instead of her. There was
no time we couldn’t stop you.” Soccorah blurted out.
“What? Why would you do that? Isn’t she your friend? Now she thinks that we’re monsters well thinks
that I am a monster. So much for keeping our secret. I couldn’t catch her. How do we handle this
mess?” luca was angry. He was angry that they had done this without consulting him, putting
everything that they had worked so hard to keep secret at risk. He was worried that Luna had told
someone what happened. He was worried that she would be afraid of him. That she would never want
to see him again. That hurt him the most. He was surprised at his feelings.
“Soccorah, what is she? Why couldn’t I catch up with her. Why did I lose her scent? This should not be
possible. Why didn’t you tell me when you realized that she may not be human? WHY DIDN’T YOU
TELL YOUR ALPHA?” he shouted making Nancy and Soccorah tremble. He stormed out of the room
to inform his father of the new developments as this was serious.
