Traded To The Lycan King by MG Wattsons
Chapter 21
Chapter 21
Merikh stands next to me, the entire pack of lycan's watching anxiously from the center of the new town square. I wish I would have been able to have a moment alone with him before we started all of this, but this is the life I have to get used to. There are far more important things than me. Especially with traitors among us here in the pack and the red-eyed wolves who seem to have it out for him.
My light blue dress ruffles in the wind, my hair tickling my check as tensions grow. I reach out, touching his hand, hoping he picks up
my nerves and maybe wraps it up in his. He doesn't, instead he slides his hands into his pocket and looks in the opposite direction, making my heart lurch in fear.

"As you all know, there has been a new member in our pack these past few weeks." Merikh says, looking out at the crowd. "Many of you have seen her in training down at the lake or roaming around the hiking trails. Today I would like to introduce
her to you.
He slides his icy gaze to me, my heart skipping a beat at the lack of warmth in his eyes. If I didn't trust the words, he has told me many times, I would think he hates me,
He places his hand out before me, waiting for me to place mine in his palm. I hesitate for a moment before accepting it and he pulls me forward with him. The pack members watch me, waiting for something to happen.
"This is Colette. Your Luna, and my new mate." Merikh announces, his voice booms through the air, authoritative and firm. The pack members collectively drop their gaze, bowing their heads before looking back up and watching me, then Penny and Percy, who stand at the front of the crowd, step toward us..
"We accept you as our Luna, and we pledge our lives to you in service. They kneel, dropping their heads. A tingling starts in my chest, a warmth spreading and my eyes go wide in surprise. Hayes steps up to my side, sliding me a warm and encouraging smile.
"Accept them," he whispers, and I realize I am supposed to be doing my part,
I glance at Merikh, frustration tickling my mind that he is not helping to guide me through this, but maybe it's a test to see how I handle the stress of all of this. Which is fantastic because I have proven frequently how poorly I do with that.
"I accept your promise, and I promise to do my best as your Luna. To lead you only where you can follow and follow only when I know it is right to do so. I only wish to serve you all and prove myself worthy of your loyalty."
Merikh chortles quietly next to me, shaking my confidence, but I don't let it show. The pack members all lift their heads and Jet out a howl that resonates through the air, vibrating the ground as my chest seems to burst with white energy that spills into pale blue. It whips around me like a storm, stealing my breath away.
Each passing breeze calls to me, voices of encouragement and love before the air stills and the world seems to pause for a moment. A whooshing screams past my ear, the light zipping away before spinning and heading straight for me. I close my eyes, tilting my head back as it hammers into my chest, the whispers echoing through my body until they rest in my chest and I gasp.
The mind link. The world around me is silent, but internally I can hear the excitement, the whoops and hollers for their new Luna, and tears flood my eyes. They accept me. They want me.
A warm hand takes hold of mine and I squeeze it, looking at Merikh who wordlessly holds it up in celebration, though he doesn't look at me. I ache to feel his gaze on me, but I relish the touch of his skin instead, looking down at Penny and Percy, whose eyes flash blue and then their usual shade. They grin from ear to ear and I hear them in the mind link.
-Welcome to the pack Luna Letty, we are honored to serve you-
"Now!" Hayes announces, filled with giddy excitement. "Who the heck is ready to party?"
We watch as everyone disperses, and I turn to face Merikh. His eyes find mine looking hollow and again my heart races. Something is wrong. I can feel it in my very being
"Merikh..." I whisper and he seems to focus on me.
