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.

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
