The Perfect Luna by Marissa Gilbert

Chapter 28. The Nightmares

He took his time as they walked out of the Queen bedroom. It was unbelievable that this

was where his sister placed Riannon. But it made him happy still since his room was right next to it and he was sure that he would be able to smell her delicate scent at night.

“So, the top floor is designated for the royal family and our Beta,” he was explaining as

she listened politely, “High ranked unmated wolves take the rooms on the next floor. Most of my warriors live there. You will meet them all in due time.”

“I can’t wait,” Ria said, feeling awkward. If she was just a guest, there was no reason for her to meet all his warriors. And she tried not to think of what he told her in the car. She was not ready to think about it. When her mind went there, it was turning all soft and mushy.

They went all the way to the ground floor, where he showed her a few of their reception halls and drawing rooms, each of which was magnificent and done in its own style and colours. But it was the library that she loved the best.

“Oh. My. Goddess.” Riannon gasped as they walked in and she saw the long room walls

of which were covered in bookshelves. There were a few comfortable chairs here and there

and a little sofa at the very end of the room. She immediately went to check what they had on the shelves and squeaked in excitement every time she found something rare.

So, she liked books. It made the lycan king smile too because she wasn’t impressed by expensive vases the house had on display or overpriced pieces of modern art that Savvy was buying as if her life depended on it. But her eyes lit as soon as she entered this room. Surprisingly, it was one of his most favourite places in the house.

“Ah, I could live here!” Riannon said and for a second there he let himself believe that she

was serious about it.

“You can,” he gave her a soft smile.

“I am seriously considering this!” she grinned at him, “I would sleep on that sofa!”(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)

She pointed her finger at the tiny couch and Gideon started thinking about replacing it

with one that could fit two people.

“You can take any books you like from here,” he chuckled while watching her.

“Really?” Ria was impressed by what she saw. She always wanted a library like this. She had one back in her pack, but much smaller and way less impressive.

“Of course,” he leaned over the doorway, realising that he could look at her like this

forever.

He took her to see other rooms, creating a whole commotion at the kitchen as they

out. And as soon as they saw her, they all stood up. Savvy and Reid must have told them already. Which annoyed Gideon a lot. Couldn’t they keep a secret?

“It’s so nice to meet you, Luna,” one of the guys stepped forward, stretching his hand.

“Likewise,” Ria shook his hand.

“This is Cyrus, my Gamma,” Gideon introduced us, “He is the best warrior of the pack and is responsible for battle training of the pack. Speaking of which, Cy, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)what are you doing here? What are you all doing here? Isn’t it time for you to exercise?”

“It is,” his Gamma rubbed the back of his neck, “We just had a break and cake here for…”

He clearly did not know what to say.
