The Lunas Dilemma Divine Destiny I

When I opened my second-floor window, I tried to be as quiet as possible. any noise. Since the guard in the hall would notice that I wasn't there, I had to make as much space as I could between this area and the woods.

I wasn't that stupid, so I didn't believe that there weren't any extra guards outside. Knowing the rotations made it slightly easier for me to get away without getting caught. I had to work for my freedom if I wanted it.

When I last looked, no one had seen me move. I fell to the soft ground and kneeled there. The smells of nature calmed me down when I felt nervous.

My wolf and I both wanted to go for a run. My bones needed to be moved around, and my skin was itchy. It couldn't wait any longer. My father would not agree with me going somewhere alone or leaving my security detail. I sneaked around at night because of this. I didn't want people to see me as a princess who needed to be cared for.

My feet couldn't move because the ground and grass were so wet. As I basked in the moonlight, a soft breeze stroked my skin. The rhythm of life's sounds and the smells of nature were soothing to my spirit. I got closer to my wolf as we got ready to become one single being.

I didn't make much progress. I was right next to them.

When I was in the forest and about a mile from the main house, I heard footsteps following me. They went too fast. Since I couldn't get away, I got ready to be taken down.

God, I couldn't win anything.

"Dammit, Marcus, you scared the living crap out of me!"

Because he had me pinned to the ground, all of my clothes were dirty.""

"Where exactly are you going?" He barked.

I made a joke saying, "To ride on my unicorn."

Marcus made it harder for me. He was getting very upset about what was going on with us. His  body did not lie. Proof of his  desire was right up against me, and it was long, thick, and solid as a rock. Yes, I will not go there now or in the future.

Yes, I will not go there now or in the future.

"This isn't funny at all. Even though you are almost 18, you are still limited in some ways."

"Yes, you're right! If I could, I would go to faraway places and follow all of my interests. But I chose to go for a run instead, didn't I?"

"If something bad happened to you, your father would make us both pay for it."

He stopped me just as I was going to answer in his way.

"Don't put yourself in a position to be taken advantage of. If that happened, this pack would get out of order. The rouges would take you as easily as they'd take your mother.

He went there, trying to forget about how bad he felt.

"Your dad would be lost to his wolf for sure. Our species doesn't need another renegade that our Goddess has to beat. There is no quick way to fix that problem, which is getting out of hand."

Tears are about to come out and make my eyes hurt.

Don't be weak. Don't let Marcus be in charge of you. Snuff off that feeling with sarcasm.

"Point was made. Get the hell away from me and stop howling like a wolf right now."

Crickets. He didn't try to move at all. An angry desire for revenge.

Our battle of wits was slowed down by the way I breathed. I could feel the heat rising and the wrath starting to take hold. If I couldn't control my anger, I would move under Marcus right away, clothes and all. Muddy or not, I didn't want to trash them. I got a cold feeling in my spine when I thought about his naked body pushing against mine.

My anger was too strong for the fuzzy thoughts in my head. I couldn't tell if they were mine or my wolf's. Why did it feel so different to be this close to Marcus? I'd never been so aware of a guy getting too close to me before. Now that I think about it, the only person who put me in this situation was Marcus. Sigh.

"Leave it alone. I was caught, "I growled. "I'm going straight back to my jail."

Even though I tried to get away from him, he held me there as a sign of his power. Marcus and I didn't get along, and he was willing to fill in for my dad. Mostly because he never thought about what I wanted and always did what I told him to do. Also, my wolf kept bothering me because he knew how tense things were between us. I kept forgetting about this problem.

His angry words, "Fine, but I'll tell your father about this," were the last thing I could do to keep my wolf under control. My weak grasp on reality will soon burn and break, taking my human body with it.
