Free Web NovelChapter 24: Chapter 24 Hear Your Thoughts
Abby’s POV
"Baby, what’s wrong?" Matt asks me. I was too taken aback by the sight before me. His eyes were something else already, but now. I shake my head. "I’m sorry, but your eyes. They have purple in them now." Matt quirks an eyebrow.
"What are you talking about? My eyes don’t have purple. You do, but.."
"Matt, look in the mirror?! Your eyes have purple in them now!" I say, a little annoyed. Matt stands up and walks to the mirror. He looks and then spins around. "How the heck did I get purple in my eyes suddenly?" Matt yells. I recoil a bit, feeling his frustrations. He hurries to me and takes me in his arms.
"I’m sorry, baby. I didn’t mean to yell at you. But I am very confused right now." I was about to answer when there is a knock on the door.
"Abby, are you alright? What happened?" I heard Willow’s small voice. Matt and I look at each other. How did she know something happened?
"I can hear your thoughts... Besides, an enormous wave of powerful magic, only belonging to a royal, just flowed through the entire house." Willow explains.
"I’m okay, Willow. Thank you though. We are just a bit confused, but go back down and we will be there in a minute." We hear her walk back down and got dressed. What had happened? Why was Matt’s eye swirling with my magic color? It was strange.
Galaxy was no help at all. After we completed the deed, she has been in a state of silent bliss. Smiling a stupid wolf smile, panting and rolling like a pup. I roll my eye internally at her.
As we descend the stairs, the omegas we met bowed down to the both of us. I was not yet the official Luna, but I feel something different inside of me. Something strong and ever present. As we enter the kitchen, everyone in there, including Kaiden, Greyson, Ornata and my sisters, bows down to us. Huh?
"Uhm, what are you doing?" I ask, bewildered. They all look up and then stand straight.
"I can’t believe my eyes.. I never thought this would happen in my lifetime. And my son- and daughter-in-law." Ornata says with awe. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Will someone please explain what is going on, and why the heck did you all bow just now?" Matt asks, annoyed. Both of us want people to treat us normally. "Maybe I can be of service here, my children?" A familiar female voice asked behind us.
We both spin around to see Selene stand in our kitchen. Every one has gone silent. Matt raises an eyebrow.
"And who might you be?" He asks, trying to be polite when he was more irritated by this breach of security. "I, my child, am the moon goddess. I have had the pleasure of speaking with your mate before, as I send her mother to her when she needed it." Selene smiles, but Matt didn’t look amused. "And what do you have to tell us?" He asks, always right to the point.
Selene sighs. "The reason everyone bowed down just now is that you and your lovely mate here are the King and Queen of werewolves. Just like you are the King and Queen of witches and warlocks/wizards, whatever they call themselves, now a day." My mouth drop.
"I’m sorry, Great Mother..."
"Now, now, it’s just Selene, my child." The goddess interrupts me.
"Eh. Selene. I’m sorry, but I thought you just called us the King and Queen of the werewolf and magic species? I must have heard you wrong." She smiles, but shakes her head.
"No, you heard me all correctly, Abby. You are the royals of two species, and you need to unite them before its to late."
She looks around. "You’ve got some good people here, and you will need their support. Something is coming, and fast. The need of the star wolves has risen once again, and you need to gather them under you. The only way to do that was to make sure your mate is as strong as you. That is why we transferred some of your magic into Matt when he was marked." Galaxy pressed herself forward at the presence of the goddess.
’Are you saying that the star wolves are coming to earth again, Mother?’ She asks. Selene nods.
"Yes Galaxy. Polaris is already here. I gave her to the mate of Alpha Benjamin of White Mountain. She was a pure vampire princess, but when she was marked, she turned to a hybrid. She is powerful and as sassy as ever." The glint in Selene’s eyes was one of amusement and worry. "I will properly explain later everything. I’m sorry, I need to go now." Then she vanished.
We all look at each other.
"OMG! I just met a goddess, HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!" Willow scream. She bounces on the spot, and can’t contain her happiness. Jax and Ellie look more worried, but also to be in awe of the situation. Ellie catches my eye.
"Your Highness, I will protect you and your family with my life. This I swear on my honor!" She says, tears in her eyes.
Matt kisses my temple, seemingly proud of something.
"Ellie, that is unnecessary! We are all family here, and that includes you, Willow, and grumpy Jax over there." I smiled as I point to the sulking feline.
I go over to Ellie and gave her a big hug! She hugs me back.
"Now, you and I need to talk, in private." I eye Matt, and he stiffens. I know he wasn’t keen on this.
"And you, Mr. Alpha, need to practice your magic! I will talk with Ellie, while Willow and Jax will help you. I am nearby, just under the shade, if you need me. And we need to get Winter here." Matt, relax a bit at this. "Okay, my Luna. Kaiden, you will take three pack members and go help get Winter. And you need to get the cloth the girls and Jax have left there." Kaiden nods.
"I will go with you." Jax says. "You are in expert hands with the little firecracker here, and besides, I trust you with her safety." Jax says, looking me directly in the eyes. Suddenly, realisation hit me. She is his mate. Damn, that was early, but who am I to judge?
"We’ll protect her with our lives. You have my word." I say, while giving him a knowing look. Jax nods once before getting up.
Everyone heads out. Ellie and I walked to the tree-line of the training ground, with Ornata hot on our heels. "If you think I am letting a chance go of watching my son train magic and getting to know my new children, you are very much mistaken." I could hear Greyson laugh behind us. He would not miss this either. Ellie seemed nervous, but I kept her close. Showing the pack members she is a friend.
Willow just run in between pack members, and asked Matt a million questions a minute. He is quietly taken with the little ball of energy and happiness. I smile at my family. This is a perfect moment.
