True Luna by Tessa Lilly (The White Wolf Series Book 3)
Finding My True Mate || Chapter 116- The morning after (Andrew POV)
“I wish I could do something to help.” Daisy sighed as she massaged my neck.
Her t*ouch sent shivers down my spine. I looked up at her and smiled. “Your t*ouch helps, honey.” I told her.
It did help. It helped a lot. But nothing could take away the ache in my heart.
I was worried about my friend. What the hell would happen to Logan if he lost his mate? I couldn’t even imagine what he was going through right now. I didn’t want to imagine.
I was in pain because my sister was in pain. I could see the panic in her eyes. I could feel the fear radiating off of her. I could tell how confused and sad she was, and it made me want to burn the world down.
I was also so f*uc*king scared that this new mate would take Emma from me. I knew how selfish that was, but I just couldn’t stop thinking about it.
What if he was her Goddess-given mate? What if he took her to his pack? What if he took her from me?
Asher stirred and growled.
‘She is my sister.’ he said as his anger grew. ‘She is my pup. No one is taking her away.’
I took a deep breath and tried to ignore his anger. I had enough of my own. I didn’t need to deal with his as well.
Daisy bent down and placed a small k*iss on my lips. I melted. I loved her so f*uc*king much.
“I can’t even imagine what Logan is going through.” she mumbled as she sat down on my lap.
I rubbed her belly and placed a k*iss on her shoulder.
I couldn’t imagine it either.
If someone tried to take Daisy from me_
If there was another man who was her true mate…
Pain consumed my body, and I growled.
“Mine.” I said as I cupped her face and k*issed her as hard as I could.
She understood immediately. She wrapped her arms around my neck and deepened our k*iss.
“I am yours, honey.” she said softy as she stopped k*issing me. “No one is taking me from you. There is no other man who could call me his. Only you.”
The pain in my body lessened, and I gave her a small smile.
“I love you, honey.” I told her softly.
“I love you too.” she said, smiling back at me.
Andrew? Emma mind-linked me, and my heart skipped a beat.
Yes, love? I answered immediately. Is everything okay?
Logan had to go to his office. Emma said. He told me to stay home, but I can’t be alone. I will go crazy. Can I come over, please?
Goddess, love, you don’t even have to ask. I said immediately. This is your home.
Thank you. She said. I will be right there.
She cut our mind-link, and I focused on my mate.
“Was it Emma?” he asked.
“Yes.” I nodded. “She is coming over.”
“I’m going to make her some coffee.” Daisy said as she stood up from my lap. “Do you want some?”
“Yes, honey, thank you.” I said as I took a deep breath.
Daisy gave me another k*iss before she walked away and started making coffee.
My heart clenched painfully. I couldn’t wait to see Emma. I needed to know that she was here. I needed to know that no one had taken her from me.
I breathed out in relief when I heard the front door open.
“Emma.” Daisy exclaimed, rushing toward the living room.
“Goddess, Daisy.” I mumbled as I walked toward the stove, keeping my eye on the boiling water.
She left everything just to go to Emma.
“Oh, sweetie, I am so sorry.” I heard Daisy’s voice. “How are you? Did you even sleep? You don’t look well.”
Emma answered, but I couldn’t hear what she said.
My heart raced as I looked toward the kitchen door.
Was everything okay with Emma?
They walked into the kitchen, and my eyes went to Emma’s face immediately. She looked so sad and worried. It made my heart break. Emma looked at me, and I knew that she needed me. I could tell. I raised her. I knew her.
I approached her and pulled her into a hug. She wrapped her arms around me as tightly as she could.
“It’s going to be okay, love.” I said as I k*issed the top of her head. “Everything is going to be okay.”
She took a deep breath and let me go.
“I’ve been trying to come up with a plan.” she said as she sat down at the table. “I think I’ve figured something out, but I need your opinion.”
“Of course, love.” I said as I sat down next to her and pulled her closet to me.
I k*issed her temple and took a deep breath.
It was okay. She was here. She would stay here. No one would take her from me.
“Did you tell Logan about the plan?” Daisy asked her as she placed our mugs down at the table.
“Thank you.” Emma said, smiling up at her. “And no. I want to think of something before I tell him. This is stressful enough for him.”
This was stressful for her too.
“So, what’s the plan?” I asked her as I took a small sip of my coffee. “Are you going to stay with Logan?” Daisy asked before Emma could answer.
“Of course.” Emma said immediately. “I don’t care about all that Goddess-given and cursed stuff. I will stay with him even if he isn’t my Goddess¬given mate. I don’t need a second mark. I don’t need any powers. I need him.”
I was so f*uc*king proud of her.
“What are you going to do about the other mate?” Daisy asked her quietly.
Emma took a sip of her coffee and sighed.
“I will have to be careful.” she said as she looked up at us. “I don’t want him to start a war. I don’t want to hurt any of our pack members because of this. I don’t want his pack members to get hurt because of this.”
My heart burst with pride, and I pulled her to my chest.
“I am so proud of you.” I told her softly. “So f*uc*king proud.”
Emma looked up at me and smiled.
We heard a sniffle and looked at Daisy.
“I am so sorry.” Daisy mumbled, wiping the tears from her cheeks. “It’s the hormones. Andrew’s son is making me cry.”
Emma snorted and shook her head.
“Did you notice that he is your son or my nephew when he is doing something she doesn’t like and that he is mom’s little golden boy when he is behaving?” Emma asked, raising an eyebrow at me.
I laughed and looked at my mate.
“Emma’s got a point.” I said, shaking my head.
“That’s because he got all the mischievous genes from you two.” Daisy
said, rubbing her belly.
I chuckled and looked back at my sister. She was smiling and shaking her head at my mate.
“Enough about me and your mischievous nephew, Emma.” Daisy said, smirking. “Tell us what the plan is.”
