FULL NOVELXO True Luna: The Unknown Magic: Chapter 12
Hunter’s POV
I entered the bedroom, closed the door, and took a deep breath.
I could still taste her on my lips. I could still feel her skin under my fingerprints. Her scent was still in my lungs.
I was head over heels in love and I would fight for her until my last breath.
I thought that my heart would break when she said that she needed a little bit of time to figure everything out. I didn’t know why. She wanted me as much as I wanted her. I could tell. I knew it.
‘It’s because of her family,’ Holden sighed.
‘I know,’ I mumbled. ‘But Luna Emma doesn’t have a problem with it.’
‘Her father and brother do,’ Holden growled. ‘They will try to take her from us.’
I could feel his anger growing. He was possessive. He was territorial.
‘Of course I am,’ Holden sighed. ‘I am a wolf. I am an Alpha wolf and she is mine.’
‘I know, Holden,’ I said. ‘Everything would be okay. We will give her some time to talk to her parents. She wants us.’
‘She does,’ Holden agreed. ‘I talked to her wolf. They both want us.’
I smiled and leaned against the door. I ran a finger over my lips, remembering how fucking good she tasted.
She was mine. Sophia was mine.
My smile grew. My heart felt like it had grown double ever since I saw her for the first time. I felt stronger. I was happier. Everything was better because I found her.
‘You need to call your parents,’ Holden said, making me tense up.
“Fuck,” I mumbled as I leaned my head against the door and closed my eyes.
‘They will be thrilled, Hunter,’ Holden said.
‘I hope so,’ I mumbled as I opened my eyes and took a deep breath.
I reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone.
A wave of nervousness washed over me. What would my parents say? What if they reacted the same way Alpha Logan did?
Would it be bad if I called them tomorrow?
‘Just call them, Hunter,’ Holden sighed. ‘They will be pissed off if you hide it from them.’
I sighed and unlocked my phone. Holden was right.
‘I am always right,’ he said, making me roll my eyes.
I searched for my mom’s number and pressed dial. I took a deep breath and waited to hear her voice. It didn’t take long for her to answer.
“Hunter, honey, is everything okay?” she asked worriedly. “Did you arrive? Were they nice to you? Did they hurt you?”
I stopped myself from chuckling.
“I am okay, mom,” I said as I walked over to the bed and sat down. “I arrived and they were very welcoming. I’m not hurt.”
My mom sighed in relief. “Oh, I was so worried.”
I gulped and closed my eyes.
“Is dad there?” I asked, wanting to tell them as soon as possible.
I had to do it before I changed my mind.
“Yes, honey, he and Harry are watching TV,” mom said. “He is waiting for me to get ready so we can leave.”
“Can you go to the living room and put me on speaker?” I asked.
There was a moment of silence before my mom spoke worriedly.
“Why, honey?” she asked. “Is everything okay?”
“Yes, mom,” I said, trying to stay calm. “Just go to the living room and put me on speaker.”
“Okay,” my mom mumbled and I could hear her move.
I heard the door open and close. I heard her footsteps. A few moments later, I could hear my father and brother arguing about something.
My heart was beating faster and faster by the second.
“Oh, hey honey, are you ready?” I heard my dad’s voice.
“Almost,” my mom said. “Hunter is on the phone.”
“Shitface!” my brother exclaimed, making me roll my eyes.
“Hey, bud, is everything okay?” my dad asked.
I could hear my mom scolding Harry quietly. I could imagine him rolling his eyes at her.
“Yes, dad, everything is fine,” I said. “I have something to tell you guys.”
“Did something happen?” my dad asked worriedly.
“It did,” I said as a small smile spread across my face. “I found my mate.”
My family was silent for a second, but then their joy erupted.
“Oh, Goddess!”
“I knew you could do it, shitface!”
“That’s my boy!”
I chuckled and shook my head.
“Who is she?” my mom asked. “Is she pretty? Oh, what am I asking, of course she is!”
“We have a new Luna?” my dad asked, not even allowing me to answer my mom’s question.
“Will she be able to tolerate your annoying ass?” my brother asked, chuckling.
I rolled my eyes. I was going to kick his ass when I came home.
“I will tell you if you allow me to speak,” I sighed.
“Sorry, honey,” my mom said. “We are just so excited.”
I smiled and took a deep breath.
“So, tell us about our new Luna, son,” my dad said. “Who is she?”
I gulped and closed my eyes. I tried to take another deep breath, but I couldn’t. It felt like a hand was squeezing my lungs.
“Sophia Carter, daughter of Alpha Logan and Luna Emma,” I said quietly.
The silence on the other end of the call made my stomach turn.
“What did you say?” my dad mumbled after a while.
“Alpha Logan and Luna Emma’s daughter is my mate,” I repeated.
“That’s awesome,” my brother said excitedly. “I heard that she is very pretty.”
He still didn’t know what happened between our dad and Sophia’s parents.
“Mom, dad?” I called them, ignoring my brother.
“We are very happy, honey,” my mom said quietly. “We are just a little bit shocked.”
I understood that.
“Why?” my brother asked. “Is it because she has magic? I think it’s cool.”
“How did her family react?” my dad asked me.
I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair.
“They were shocked,” I said. “At first they didn’t let me see her, but Luna Emma managed to convince Alpha Logan to let me talk to Sophia.”
“Why wouldn’t they let you see her?” my brother asked angrily. “She is your mate!”
“We will explain later, honey,” my mom told my brother.
“Did you talk to her?” my dad asked.
“I did,” I said, smiling a little. “She wants me too, dad. She just needs a little bit of time to figure things out with her family.”
I would give her time. I would wait patiently. I would do whatever the hell I needed to do to have her. I would show her how much I wanted her. I would show her that I was a good man who was worthy of her love. I would show her family that I was a good man who would love her and protect her until my last breath.
