My Fated Human Luna Chapter 200

53 Heat and Shift

Ruby POV

I’ve been staring at the ceiling for half an hour after not getting much sleep. I thought maybe we would have some peace after Bruce was dealt with, but I just keep replaying Danica’s words in my mind. How helpless I feel knowing we were there with her but we could do nothing to help her. “You need to cut yourself some slack, Ruby. It was a witch and Danica is safe”, Gemma says. I know she’s right but it’s not helping my fears. I’m supposed to be Alpha and keep everyone safe. I manage to slide out of bed without waking Maverick. I head into the closet and pull on workout clothes. A black sports bra and shorts. I’m hoping that going to train in the gym will help me focus on something else. I write a note and leave it on my pillow in case Maverick wakes up. I make my way through the pack house and outside to the attached gym. I’m grateful to find the gym is empty. Warrior training won’t start for two hours. I start to hit the heavy bag. I don’t even know what that b**ch looks like but I still imagine it’s the witch who wants to hurt my niece or nephew. I hit the bag over and over until my body hurts. My knuckles are bleeding but they will heal in minutes. How could anyone want to hurt pups? I feel tears starting to stream down my cheeks but I keep hitting the bag. When I’m breathless, I bend over with my hands on my knees. Pulling in a lung full of air. I smell him before I see him. His hand on my back rubbing in circles, starts to calm my raging heart. I stand and look into Maverick’s beautiful eyes. He pulls me into his arms and I lose the battle with my emotions. My tears flow freely and he just holds me. “Ruby, I know how worried you are, but I have never met stronger people than your family, our family. You don’t always need to be strong. You’re allowed to be afraid. Being an Alpha doesn’t mean we can fix everything. You forget that I can feel everything through our bond. I want you to lean on me. We are partners and we will do everything in our power to keep Danica and the pup safe.”

I pull back and press a kiss on his lips. The goddess couldn’t have given me a better mate. He is my perfect match. He knows what I need even if I don’t. The door to the gym opening gets our attention and five warriors walk in. I compose myself before I take Maverick’s hand to lead him back to our wing of the pack house. I take five steps and pain in my abdomen makes me double over. My skin feels like it’s on fire. “Ruby, what’s wrong”, Maverick starts to ask before several growls rip through the gym. I look up and the five warriors’ eyes are black as they stare at me. Maverick steps in front of me and I link Autumn to come now and bring Connor. She appears within seconds. She immediately knows I’m in heat. “Maverick, go to your wing, now. Ruby needs you” Autumn says. She doesn’t even let him answer before she wraps her arm around me and teleports us to my room. I scream and the feeling of burning on my skin is getting worse. “It’s alright Ruby. Maverick will be here soon. He will make it better. Let’s get you into a cold shower while you wait.” She leads me in to the bathroom and helps me peel the sticky clothes off my body. I step into cold water and it helps a little. The bathroom door swings open and Maverick is staring at me with black eyes. Gaylen is at the surface. “Leave Autumn”, he says and she disappears. He is stalking toward me like he’s a predator and I’m his prey. My body craves his touch.

He steps in the shower completely unaffected by the cold spray. “Mine” he growls, and I’m picked up and slammed against the wall of the shower. There is nothing soft or gentle at this moment. I want him to ravish my body. He reaches down, running his fingers through my folds and I’m already dripping wet. “Maverick, I need you inside me now.” He impales me with one thrust. He sets a relentless rhythm. He reaches between us and begins to rub my cl*t. I buck against him trying to reach my release. I can feel the familiar tingle in my core start to build. When he bites down into my mark, I scream out his name. I feel his seed empty deep in my body. His eyes are back to their beautiful blue color and I smile. He brushes the tendrils of hair that cover my face away. “Ruby, are you alright? I didn’t hurt you, did I?” Goddess, I love this man. I slam my lips down on his and kiss him like he’s the air I need to breathe. I press my forehead to his as we both come down from our high. “I promise you that I can take anything that you give. I’m in heat, Maverick, and it will probably last at least three days. We won’t be able to

leave this room till it passes. I can’t risk being around unmated males when it hits again. The only thing that will make me feel better is you.” “Mine” he says again. “Yes, yours and only yours. Let’s clean up before the next wave hits. Autumn will bring us food and drinks till it’s over.” “Three days of non-stop s*x with the love of my life. I think I can handle that” Mavericks says as he begins to wash me.

Lucy POV

I still feel like this is all a dream. The last few days spending time with William, Gwen, Luca, Jade, and Luna has been amazing. Gwen let us pick out some things to make our rooms our own. We are supposed to go shopping this afternoon and honestly, I can’t wait. We were rarely allowed to leave the cottage. As I got older, Madelena would give me clothes she didn’t want anymore, which were always too big. “Everything is going to be better from now on, Lucy” a voice in my head says. I jump off the bed and look around expecting to see someone, even though I know it came from inside me. “Who are you?” “I’m your dragon, silly girl. My name is Gia. I’m sorry I couldn’t be there for you through all the bad those people did, but you will always have me now. Our new family will always take care of you and Liam. I can feel their love for us.” “My birthday isn’t for a few days. Why would I be shifting now?” “The goddess is very proud of you. This is the goddess’s gift to you for doing the right thing. For caring about others, even knowing it could cost you everything.” “I’m so happy that your here with me. I’m ready to shift.” “Well, first we need to be outside. Second, you need to get William or Luca so they can help us. I won’t lie your first shift is going to hurt. I need you not to fight the shift. It will make it more painful if you fight it.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

I rush from my room and Gwen is the only one sitting on the couch. She looks at me and concern flashes on her face. “Where is William or Luca?” “They are busy sweetheart. Can I help you with something” Gwen asks. “I need them. My dragon, Gia, is here and I’m going to shift. I need them with me.” I see panic flash on her face as she tries to link. Liam rushes out of his room and takes my hand. “I will go with you sissy. I can be with you while you shift.” I smile and put my hands on his shoulders. “I need you to stay here with Gwen. I love you. When I’m all done with my first shift, I will come get you

so you can meet Gia.” I can see he wants to protest but, thankfully, he joins Gwen on the couch. I don’t want him to see me in pain. “Lucy, they have a block up because they are in the cells. Let me link Jade.” A few minutes later, Jade comes in with Luna on her hip. I tell her everything that Gia said and she immediately starts to link Luca. After a few minutes she smiles at me. “They are both on their way. Let’s get you outside.” Gwen takes my hand. “I’m proud of you Lucy. I can’t wait to meet Gia.” She and Liam hug me before I follow Jade outside. I’m excited but nervous at the same time. “Lucy, I can’t hold it back any longer”, Gia says. Pain rushes through my body and I fall onto my knees. “Don’t fight me, Lucy.”

Luca POV

I feel a push of someone trying to link me. I know it has to be Jade as my block with her is thin. I don’t want her to feel my rage while I’m in the cells, but if she needs me, I want her to get through to me. I drop the block and Jade’s panicked voice makes me freeze. “Lucy is going to shift. She needs the two of you right now. I’m taking her outside.” I cut the link and grab my father. “Secure the two of them now” I yell at the guard as we head out of the cells. I run as fast as my legs can carry me through the castle. I bust through the door that leads outside with my father on my heels. Lucy is writhing in pain on the ground. I rush toward her. “Lucy, I’m here. William is here. We will be with you the whole time. Don’t fight your dragon. Try to relax your body.” Her eyes are flashing back and forth between her green eyes and her dragon’s black ones. “Sebastian, what can we do to help her?” “Shift and I’ll reach out to her dragon.” I do as he says and shift into my huge blue dragon. I sit back and let Sebastian take complete control. “Shift little dragon. Focus on me and push forward. Lucy, sit back and let your dragon free”, Sebastian says. I watch through his eyes as Lucy’s bones start to move and change position. Her skin takes on a pink hue before her scales grow. It takes ten minutes before a beautiful pink dragon stands before my father and I. Sebastian rubs his cheek against hers before my father’s dragon does the same.

She turns and goes toward Jade. I watch her lay down and Jade places her hand on the dragon’s head. She is imprinting on her family. That is how your first shift is supposed to happen. My father was with me for mine. I’m glad that Lucy has all of us for hers. The door opens and Liam and Gwen step out. Liam rushes over to the pink dragon. She lays down and he climbs up on her neck, squeezing her tight. “You’re beautiful Gia”, Liam says. The dragon preens at her compliment. After a few minutes, Liam rejoins Gwen and Gia turns to me. I can see panic in her eyes. Lucy doesn’t know how to shift back. I shift and my father throws me shorts, which I pull on. “Lucy, picture yourself as a girl. Picture your face, arms, and legs.” After a few minutes my beautiful sister is standing in front of me. I hand her a shirt and she slips it over her head before she launches herself into my arms. “Thank you, Luca. I’m so glad you’re my brother. I love you.” “I love you too, Lucy.” I set her down and she wraps her arms around my father. “Thank you, dad. I love you too.” My father is smiling like he just got the best gift he could ever have. We all did.
