My Fated Human Luna Chapter 169

22 Do You Want Me

Luca POV

As I watch Sherman accept his goddess-given mate, my heart aches. I’m so happy for him and I know Esme is too. I know he’s right that Cynthia would want me to be happy, but I still feel like I’m betraying her. She never got to have time with Luna. The time to be the amazing mother I know she would have been. I watch Jade holding Luna and it pulls at my heart. She will be an amazing mother to Luna. I want Jade with everything in me. Not because of Luna, but because she is my mate. I want to give into the bond, but I can’t say I’m not afraid. Losing Cythina almost killed me and we were not fated to each other. If anything happened to Jade, I wouldn’t survive. The goddess chose her and everything about her is attractive. She is gorgeous, but it’s more than that. I can already tell she will challenge me and not be like many women who just want me for the title. My father won’t be happy with our mating because he expects me to have a ranked dragon mate. A strong dragon to become queen. He wants me to choose Monica. I don’t care what he wants. I chose Cynthia despite his opinion and mating Jade is my choice, not his. I need to talk to her and try to make this right. I’m not ready to mate and mark, but I’m not willing to let her go even if I have been an a**. “Look who finally pulled his head out of his a**” Sebastian says. I don’t even respond to him. Brooklyn leaves with her parents. I’m glad that Jade will have someone she is close to returning with us if I can convince her to come.

jerk? “What if she doesn’t? I’ve never known you to back down from anything. Now is not the time to start”, Sebastian says. He is definitely right. She is too important to let my fear stop me. My eyes meet Jade’s, but they give nothing away. “What did you want to speak about Luca?” My name on her lips sounds so right. “I’m sorry for how I acted earlier.” She looks shocked at my omission. “I’m sure you realize that you are not my first mate” I say looking down at my sleeping daughter. She nods and I continue. “I took Cynthia as a chosen mate a year ago. She was not a ranked dragon, which was a point of turmoil between me and my father. The council wasn’t happy either. I chose

to Luna. My father insisted her body wasn’t strong enough to handle the royal hatchling pregnancy because she was weak.” I drop my head, feeling the guilt all over again. A hand on mine brings me back to the here and now. “What happened was not your fault and I don’t think your father is right about Cynthia being strong.” I can’t help the smile at her kind words. She doesn’t move her hand and I’m glad. “That was three months ago. Luna is all I have left of Cynthia and when I saw you today it scared me.” “Luca, I wish you would have just talked to me instead of acting like a jerk.” I can’t help the laugh. “I don’t think anyone has ever called me a jerk to my face.” “Well, I won’t apologize for telling you how you were acting but I do understand your reaction now. Luca, I understand if you want to reject this bond.” “No” I say harsher than I mean to.

want you to say these things if you truly don’t mean them. I would never want our bond built on Luna’s needs.” I hate that she thinks I only want her to come back with me because of Luna. “Jade, I love that my daughter imprinted on you and she knows how important you are, but that has nothing to do with what I just said. I want you to be my mate and my queen. I want you and I’m sorry that I need time” she cuts me off. “I am fine with waiting as long as you truly want me.” “I guess the question is, do you want me, Jade?” She places her hand back on mine. “I wanted you the moment I saw you. I will wait as long as you need. I want to be your mate, Luca. I want to help you raise Luna. I will treat her like she is my own pup and we will honor Cynthia’s memory. She will know her mother.” I stand and help Jade to do the same. I wrap her in a hug without squishing Luna and her scent gives me peace. I know in my heart that she was meant to be mine. “I’m going to go get my things around and I will come find you for lunch.” She leans up and kisses my cheek before she places Luna in my arms. I start the walk back to the room and Luna doesn’t make a peep. “Alright little one, I got it. I agree Jade is our family now. Now we just need to

Jade POV

for sure he wanted to talk to me to speak about his formal rejection. I would have been devastated but I would have accepted if that was what he wanted. I don’t want to have to beg my mate to choose me. My heart broke to hear him talk about Cynthia and I understand why he was so upset when we first met. I was happy about going with him, but I don’t want to be asked purely because Luna seems to have become attached to me. I would do anything for this little girl, but I don’t want him to choose me because of Luna. I want him to want me. I was shocked when he asked if I wanted him. I nearly jumped out of my seat. Zelda was dancing in my

I pull back, smiling at my aunt. “Brooklyn and I will be going to the dragon kingdom to be with our mates.” “That’s wonderful but there is no reason for anyone to be sad.” We all look at her confused. “The kingdom isn’t close like the coven Aunt Tabby.
