    My Fated Human Luna Chapter 155


    8 Friend or Not


    Danica POV


    I head to my office. I open the door and roll my eyes. I step inside and walk to my desk. “Constance, I


    am in no mood this early in the morning.” She smiles “you know you love seeing me.” “If you weren’t


    my sister I would kick your a** for being in my office without my permission.” She sticks her tongue out


    and I hold back augh. “So what happenedst night?” I roll my eyes. “Why are you asking me about


    that? You have never cared about what the soldiers do, so why do you care now?” She smiles, “oh, this


    must be really good for you to be so defensive. You know you want to tell me.” “Constance, I am not in


    the mood for this today. The scouting did not go as nned and that is the end of it.” She stands “you


    forget that I know you better than anyone else. I also know when you’re hiding things. I’ll figure it out,


    that’s what sisters do.” I roll my eyes and she heads out of my office. I haven’t been able to stop


    thinking about his eyes. Despite how far away he was, I could see they were a beautiful chocte


    brown color. I knew immediately he was my beloved. I just don’t know how to move forward.


    I stand going to the shelf where my father’s books still rest. I pull down the book with the red binding. I


    have read it over fifty times trying to find the answers to why my father made me promise to end the


    Scarlett Rose. Even on his deathbed he wasn’t honest with me. Making up some story about his


    brother’s coven being taken from Drayce. Telling me how I needed to avenge the family name. He


    could care less about his brother or his brother’s coven. The more I have read the journals he kept I’m


    sure all of this has to do with power. He even brought Milo into the n, thinking that I would ept


    him so readily. I feel like my father knew something that he didn’t want me to figure out. A knock


    sounds on my door, bringing me out of my thoughts about my father. I’m d when I see it’s not Milo.


    Jeremiah steps in and bows. He was my father’s most trusted advisor and has been very supportive of


    me taking over the coven.


    When I first took over, I worried that the men would not ept a female leader. It wasn’t until I allowed


    the doubters to take me on that they finally epted me. “Danica, I heard that there were some issues


    with the scouting mission.” “I’m sure you did. Did Milo run right to you?” He smiles “you know him so


    well. So do you want to talk about what happened?” “Honestly, the only thing I want to talk about is my


    father.” He nods and I continue. “I need to know the true reason that he insisted the coven destroy the


    Scarlett Rose.” I see sympathy in his eyes. “I wish I had those answers for you Danica. Your father


    always had his own agenda which I’m sure you know better than anyone. He kept certain things to


    himself, but that doesn’t mean that you need to follow his orders blindly.” “I promised him that I would


    end the Scarlett Rose. How do I go back on a promise I made while the man was dying?” “I had the


    utmost respect for your father as our leader, but a promise made under false pretenses isn’t really fair


    to you. Find the answers and make your own decisions. That’s what a good leader does.” I smile and


    he stands to leave. “Thank you, Jeremiah.” He nods and leaves my office.


    Archer POV


    We reach the coven and we are greeted by Porter. “Porter, thank you for making time for us today” my


    father says. “Lake, you know that you never have to thank us for helping, in any way we can. I’m sorry


    you are stuck with just me. The others are visiting Brooke, Jayden, Adrian, Andrew, and the pups. They


    will be having their Alpha ceremony soon. We are hoping you all will be able to attend.” “Of course we


    will,” my father says. “Ruby will also be having her ceremony soon and Gabrie will send out the


    invitations.” He leads us to an office and we all take a seat. “So you said that you had some questions


    about a vampire coven?” My father looks at me to speak. “During our patrol, Wesley and I scented


    vampires just outside the packnd. When we went to find out why they were so close to the pack we


    were attacked. During the attack, a woman stepped out from behind the trees. She is my mate and she


    seemed to be in charge of the others. She called for the men to retreat and left before I could reach


    her.” Porter smiles “did she make eye contact with you, Archer?” “She did, that’s when she gave the


    orders to retreat.” His smile seems to get even bigger.


    “I take that as a good sign that she didn’t try to kill you after she realized who you were.” “She left


    without saying a word. I doubt that is a good sign. I have no idea what coven she is from or why they


    were near the pack.” “I still have some connections in the surrounding covens. I can reach out and see


    if I can find out any details that might lead us to your mate.” “I would really appreciate that, Porter. I


    need to find her and we need to know why the vampires were so ready to attack our pack.” “Of course,


    I will start making the calls today. As soon as I have any answers, I will call you immediately.” We stand


    and I take Porter’s hand in mine. “Thank you, again Porter.” We head out and I shift, we start to run


    back to the pack. As we run, I say a prayer to the goddess that Porter can help us find the answers and


    I can find my mate. I push the thoughts of rejection that have been guing me since the night I saw


    her from my mind and focus on finding her.


    Ruby POV


    As soon as we are safely in the car, I turn to Autumn. “Thank you for healing her.” She leans up and


    wraps her arms around me. “She is important to our Alphas, which means she is important to me.” I


    nod and turn back to the wheel. “Oh no, we aren’t done talking Ruby.” I figured she was going to bring


    up what Gwen had said about Maverick’s engagement. When Gwen spoke about Maverick she didn’t


    seem upset. I felt like she wasn’t so much checking on Maverick as telling me that he was avable,


    but that wouldn’t make any sense. Gemma was prancing in my mind and the little hope I felt after his


    conversation with Jennifer just got a lot bigger. “What is she talking about,” Jade asks. I roll my eyes


    but turn back to the girls. “Apparently Maverick is no longer engaged.” Screams fill the car and I cover


    my ears. “Ruby is going to get her man” Brooklyn chants. “My man, what are you fifteen?” We all start


    tough. I turn back and start the car. I told the secretary that I wouldn’t be returning to the office when


    we left for the hospital. I need to talk to my grandfathers Stephen and Archer today. “It’s time toe


    up with a n to get our mate” Gemma says. “Settle down Gemma. I have every intention of getting


    our mate now that I know he isn’t with that woman.”


    We reach the pack and I head for the pack house. I reach my grandfather Archer’s office. “Come in


    Ruby” he says, scenting me before I even knock. I smile and when I walk in I’m wrapped in strong


    arms. He sets me on my feet. “How is everything going at the office” he asks. I’m sure he is pretending


    he has no idea why I’m here. I am sure my grandmother told him about my mate. “The office is fine but


    I need to talk to you about my mate.” He smiles, “I had hoped you woulde to speak to me about


    him.” “I just never expected my mate to be human and in a rtionship.” Heughs “yep I remember


    that was a hard pill to swallow. Your grandmother was in the process of leaving Greg but I had no way


    to know if she would ept me or love me like I did her.” “What did you do?” “I did exactly what you’re


    doing. I was patient and let her make all the decisions about ending the rtionship with Greg.” “How


    and when am I supposed to tell him what we are?” He smiles “that I can’t tell you. All I can say is you


    will know when the time is right. Just remember to be honest and ept that his response might not be


    what you expect a mate to say. Imagine having no idea that werewolves exist and now you are chosen


    to be mated to one.” Iugh “that would be a lot.” I stand going around the desk to hug him. “I have


    faith that you will have your mate and run this pack better than anyone before you.” “Thank you,


    grandpa.”


    I head to the cottage that my grandfather Stephen shares with Maryah. I knock and Maryah is smiling


    when she opens the door. She motions her head “he is in the living room.” She hugs me before I join


    him on the couch. He wraps me in a hug. “To what do I owe this visit from my favorite granddaughter?”


    Iugh “you say that to all of us.” “Well, it’s true.” “I wanted to talk to you about the deal with Bernard


    from today.” I tell him everything that happened and he just sits listening. I tell him what Maverick did


    and that the deal won’t be happening. “First of all, that a**hole is lucky Maverick has a cool head. I


    would not have been so calm. Secondly, we will never do business with a man that has views like that.


    So enough about that ignorant ba**ard. How are things going with Maverick?” “We just lost a huge deal


    and you’re worried about my mating.” “I worry about the important things in life. There will always be


    other deals but you will only have one mate. Now tell me how things are going.” I tell him about our trip


    to see Gwen and her healing. “I always liked Gwen. I’m sure she saw through Delh’s bullsh*t.


    Sounds like we will have a new Alpha soon.” “I hope so, grandpa.”

    Maverick POV


    After I leave the hospital, I decide to head back to the office. I have nothing to rush home to, so I would


    rather just upy myself with work. As I drive back, I think about how happy my mother was when I


    came back into the room. She even told the nurse she wanted to have more scans before she would


    take anymore chemo. I’m d she felt like the healing helped her, but I don’t want her to stop the


    treatments. I believe in miracles but we still need to be practical. As I pull into the parking garage,


    someone walking out of the office building catches my attention. What the hell was she doing here? I


    park my car and rush upstairs to my floor. As soon as the elevator door opens, I rush over to the desk. I


    don’t even care that Jennifer is the only one sitting there. “What can I help you with Mr. Colwell?” “I just


    saw Delh leaving the building. Did you send her away when she came looking for me?” “I’m sorry sir,


    she wasn’t here to see you.” The anger that was only a low roar is now a full on rage. “Who was she


    here to see?” She must hear the anger in my voice. “She was here to see Mr. kely.”


    I take a deep before I head to Connor’s office. I push open the door and Connor looks up from his


    desk. He smiles at first but he must realize that the look on my face is one of anger. “Maverick, what


    the hell is wrong with you?” “How long have you been f**king her?” I see the moment he realizes who I


    am referring to. “No way man. I wouldn’t never do that to you.” “Really, because you f**k everything that


    doesn’t move. The fact she came here to see you seems like she is part of everything.” He starts to


    walk toward me. I’m not even hurt about Delh sleeping with him. All the love I had for her has slowly


    started to fade away. I’m angry that he thought so little of our friendship that he could betray me. I have


    always thought of him as a brother. As soon as he gets close enough, I don’t know whates over


    me, but I punch him in the face. I don’t even wait for a response. I head back down the hall to my office


    and lock the door once I’m inside. I have never hit another person in my life, but his betrayal feels far


    worse than hers.
