The Perfect Luna
Chapter 26: Greetings
“What is wrong?” Gideon could feel that something happened to her, “Riannon?”
“My wolf!” She practically gasped for air, “It just spoke to me! Just for a second… but she was there!”
“What?” He was kneeling before her in seconds, trying to contain his own excitement,“Are you sure?”
This was all he wanted. This was all he needed. If Onyx was back, she would recognise him and it would solve all problems. They would be able to just be together!
“Yes,” she mumbled, “It is just a faint whisper, but it was her. Plus, it wasn’t the first time. She did the same the other day.”
“What did she say?” He took her hands in his and for the first time, the driver had to make a sharp turn for real, almost making him fall to her feet. Not that he minded that.
Riannon stumbled. Wouldn’t it be too much sharing? Especially considering everything that he had just told her? She didn’t want to give him false hope or…
“It’s fine,” it was as if he read her mind again, “I am sorry I asked. It’s none of my business.”
It was his business, of course, but he did not want to push her.
He let go of her hands and returned to his seat. Yet a happy grin was plastered all over his face. It was impossible to contain it this time.
They arrived at their destination quite soon and just by looking out of the window Ria
knew that she was in a whole new world.
Their pack, The Silver River, was considered one of the richest. But what she saw at the Lycan’s realm was far beyond her even most bold expectations. The houses were way bigger and more luxurious. There were fountains and elaborate sculptures everywhere and beautifully trimmed gardens seemed never-ending. What surrounded her now seemed affluent and screamed that lycans were the elite of shifter’s world.
She saw warriors training; she saw children playing, couples strolling around and holding hands. It was a happy place. Not at all how she imagined it. Before she met Gideon, he thought of Lycans as super-strong and majestic creatures… But cold and arrogant. It was strange to see them do all the things that people in her pack were doing.
“Ready?” He asked her as he opened the door and for a second there, she thought that he was afraid to see her reaction.
