Free Web NovelChapter 7: Chapter 7 Revelations
Abigail’s POV
"It is time, my child. They need to get back. Selene will explain everything to her in due time, and you will have another chance to be with her." A beautiful, melodic female voice rings out from the light.
Her voice is soft, but the power from it is not to be mistaken. This is a voice from a goddess, but who? And who is this Selene she mentioned? Mom stands up and so do I. We hug, tearfully, and say our goodbyes. Again.
I can feel how I wake up and there are voices around me. Two of them I recognize, but the third is unfamiliar.
My eyes flutter open, and I’m met with the green orbs of my mate.
"How are you feeling, baby?" He asks, concern clear in his voice.
"I’m fine. Galaxy needed to talk to me, and I met my mom." Matthew furrow his brows, but doesn’t ask what I mean. Thank the Goddess.
I stretched my arms and then look around the big room. My eyes fall upon Matthew’s mother and the unfamiliar female I heard talking before.
"Hello. My name is Helena, but please call me Lena. I am Matthew’s youngest sister, and I brought you some clothes to wear." She rambles all in a hurry, as if she fears I will scratch her eyes out or something similar.
"Hi. I’m Abigail and I don’t know what you heard, but I will not hurt you or anything." Lena smiles at me. freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Oh uhm.. I just wanted to clarify that I am not some random she-wolf Matthew brought here." She said with a small smile, and I appreciate her attempt to explain and make me comfortable.
"Baby, would you like to take a bath before we leave?" Matthew asks. What is it with him and per names? Not that I’m complaining, but it feels weird. Good, but weird.
I’m suddenly highly aware of him sitting on the bed beside me and holding me to him. The tingles are everywhere, and so nice and relaxing I didn’t pay notice before.
"Yes, I think that would be nice." He let me go, and I feel my face heat with shyness. I am still very naked under the covers of the bed and the long t-shirt they handed me in the hospital. Luna Ornata chuckles.
"Don’t be embarrassed or shy sweetie, it is normal for a male wolf to be very possessive; Alpha wolfs especially. I would have given my son hell if he didn’t already treat you like a Queen."
My eyes widened, and I can see how serious she is. This is a very weird family.
The Luna of this pack can’t leave the Alpha floor without the explicit approval of the Alpha himself, and if she had to like tonight, the pack warriors would surround her. I guess every pack is different. But for the Luna to have so much freedom as Ornata, is something I’ll have to get used to.
I stand up, take the clothes Lena is handing me and go to the door Matthew points at as the bathroom. The bathroom is enormous and spacious, but right now my focus is on getting my first warm shower in three years.
Yes, I had a shower in my cottage, but the water heater was broken, and I never got to fix it. If I wanted warm water, I would warm it the old fashion way, in a pot on the stove or over open fire. The shower is delicious when I finally get it turned on, and I take my time scrubbing every inch more than once. My hair gets a good clean as well and as I am massaging my scalp, the things that happened today catch up and I realise I’m leaving this place. I sigh in contempt as my body feels refreshed and clean for the first time in a long time.
Afterwards, I towel dry my body and hair, put on the clothes Lena got me, and braid my hair to keep it out of the way
’I need a haircut, maybe take a few inches off so it doesn’t reach my bum anymore,’ I tell Galaxy. She hum in response like she uses too, and I know she agrees. I will speak to Matt about it when we get to his pack.
When I come out of the bathroom, my dad is there. I remember what mom had told me, and to everyone’s surprise, my own included, I walk over to him and give him a big hug.
"Mom visited me and told me everything. I owe you my life, and I’m so, so sorry for what the Alpha made you go through." I whisper in his ears.
It was like a dam broke, and dad cries. He breaks down in my arms and it’s like he can finally show me the real him. No pretending.
"I miss her so much every day. I died inside the day they killed her. But I promised her I would protect you, and make sure no one ever harmed you. I know I didn’t keep all my promises, but I’ll be dammed if anyone here lays a finger on you!" He says fiercely. He takes my face in his hands and looks me in the eye. His own swirling with love and pride. No walls, no blankness. Only love and pride.
"Leave with Matthew. I will stay here and monitor everything. If Alpha Fenrir plans anything, makes a move or even talks about you, I will phone you. Your safety is my top priority. Always have been and always will be. I love you, my little angel." My eyes sting, and I feel Matthew put his arms around me.
"I will keep Abby safe. She is going to be treated right with me, our family, and our pack." The way he talks about it being our pack and family makes my heart flutter and everything go warm.
Dad gives me a phone, my old one being destroyed with the cottage.
"My number is in there. Never answer a text, and always keep this on you. We will call a lot and I will keep you up to date. I know I haven’t been close for years, but I thought by keeping my distance, I was protecting you." I nod in understanding. Even though I didn’t agree with his actions, I knew in my heart he had tried his best.
Matthew takes my hand. His mother walks out and then comes back in with three unfamiliar men.
"This is your new Luna. Her name is Abigail, and we are escorting her home right now." The men bow their heads in respect and take my luggage downstairs. We all walk out together.
Outside, two cars are waiting, and I can see Greyson standing by the second one. Ornata goes over to him, along with Lena. Matthew leads me to the one in front and opens the door. Inside in the driver’s seat is a handsome young man.
"Hello Luna. My name is Kaiden. I am Matthews Beta and I’m sorry I haven’t introduced myself before, but I needed to arrange for the cars and security for the trip home. It is truly an honor meeting you." I can’t help but smile at him.
"Hello to you too. Please call me Abby or Abs. I’m pleased to meet you, too."
Matthew slid inside beside me, and Kaiden starts the car. The Silver Mist pack is about six hours away, so we will probably be there around dinner time.
"Oh, before I forget again. Abby, we are not leaving and you still be tied to this place. So, I, Matthew Blue, Alpha of the Silver Mist pack, invite you, Abigail Stone-Goldmoon, future Luna and my sweet mate to join my pack." He gives me a dazzling smile.
"And I, Abigail Stone-Goldmoon, accept your invitation. I swear to protect the pack, respect you as my Alpha and mate and do everything I can to help the pack grow until my dying breath."
I feel the old weak pack link break, and a power lurched through my body. A new pack link is opened, and the power of being the future Luna course through me.
’Welcome to our pack, baby. Let’s go home.’ Matthew says in my mind.
With that welcoming mind-link from Matthew, the care moves.

We aren’t long into the drive to Silver Mist before the movements of the car makes me tired. I try to stay awake and listen to the conversation between Matthew and Kaiden, but the car’s rhythmic motions, the humming, and the actions today are too much, and I soon drift off. My head falls on Matthew, and I am soon sleeping soundly on his lap. The tingles and his intoxicating scent soothing my stressed body and mind.
