My Fated Human Luna Chapter 188

41 Old Hurts

Luca POV

To say I’m in shock is an understatement. Jade slaps me on the arm, bringing me out of my shocked

state. “Go speak to your father before this gets worse.” She is right, he can’t run away from this. I know

Maverick’s mother is human, but I’m sure by now she understands what just happened. He has to talk

to her. I stand and leave to speak to my father. As I head outside, I follow his scent around the side of

the pack house. The path is littered with flowers. It really is beautiful. I find him seated on a bench

halfway up the path. He looks like his thoughts are a million miles away. I take a seat next to him and

we sit in silence for a moment. “Why would the goddess do this to me? After everything that happened

with Madelena.” He seems to be talking more to himself than me, but I answer anyway. “Dad, I know

that Madelena hurt you.” Me not calling her my mother isn’t lost on him. She was never a mother to me

and I won’t give her that title. “Fated mates are supposed to love you more than they love themselves. I

believe the goddess is giving you a chance to have a mate that will be the one kind of woman you

deserve.” “I’m afraid, Luca. Afraid to let someone in, that could turn out to be just like Madelena. I don’t

think I could survive that kind of heartache again.” “I have never known you to shy away from

something that may be difficult. I was afraid when I found Jade. I was so hurt after Cynthia died, I didn’t

want to let her in. Part of it was about Cynthia, but the bigger part was my own fear of being hurt again.

I knew this time would be worse since Jade and I are fated mates.” “You are stronger than I ever was,

Luca.”

“Bullsh*t” I say and he whips his head in my direction. “Excuse me” he says. “My mate didn’t choose to

leave me, she died. You were betrayed by your fated mate. You were left with a pup and a kingdom to

run. You could have thrown your hands up and walked away but you didn’t. You were strong and did

what you had to do to survive. You made mistakes, but that doesn’t change the fact that you were

strong enough to keep going. I know I’ve never said it, dad, but I’m grateful for having you as my father

even with your mistakes.” He rests his hand on top of mine but stays quiet. I smell her before I see her.

Jade and Maverick are standing next to the woman that is to be my father’s second chance. I squeeze

his hand and he nods. I walk over and give her a smile. “I’m Luca, William is my father.” She smiles “I’m

Gwen, Maverick’s mother.” “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Gwen. I’m sorry about my dad leaving like that.

His reaction isn’t about you, Gwen.” “Do you think he would speak to me” she asks. I see a kindness in

her eyes that I’m sure Madelena never had. I nod and she walks past me sitting on a bend across from

my father. I take Jade’s hand, heading back to the pack house. I hope he gives her a chance. He

deserves this.

Gwen POV

As soon as Maverick explains what just happened, I can’t help the butterflies I feel in my belly.

Honestly, after everything that I went through with Bruce, the last thing I wanted was to start another

relationship. My heart was shattered the day I found him b*lls deep in that b**ch Jennifer in our bed.

Everything I knew of our life together was erased in that moment. After I had a chance to really

examine our marriage, I realized he probably did that to me all my life. I was just too trusting to see it. “I

would like to talk to him”, I tell Maverick. “Maybe we should just wait and see what Luca says.” “If he is

my mate, I want to speak to him”, I say without any hint of a question. I love my son and I know he is

trying to protect me after everything that happened, but I’m stronger than he thinks I am. Maverick

looks nervously at Jade and she smiles. They lead me out of the pack house and into the garden. I

take a seat across from William. He is very handsome and when his ice blue eyes meet mine, I feel a

heat I haven’t felt in a very long time. “I’m sorry I ran away from you” he says. I smile “I’ll forgive you if

you tell me why you ran away.” I can see the pain and sadness in his eyes. Part of me feels bad for

putting him on the spot, but I need to know. I give him time, waiting for him to answer. “You are my

second chance mate. My first mate betrayed me in the worst way possible. What she did has changed

the man I once was. You deserve to be with a man that isn’t so broken.” Now that just pisses me off.

The fact that he thinks he knows what’s best for me.

“William, do you think you’re the only one that has been hurt in this life?” His eyes meet mine and they

darken to almost black. As quickly as they darken, they return to their normal blue color. I don’t know

what I expect but he stays quiet. “I was married to a man for over twenty years that I believed loved

me. We had a life that I thought was perfect. One day I came home and found him screwing a woman

my son’s age in our bed.” He growls, but I can tell that his anger isn’t directed at me. “He didn’t even

have the decency to act sorry. He left with that woman and served me with divorce papers the next

week. What other people did to us doesn’t make us broken. It makes them a**holes.” When I look back

at William this time, I can’t decipher what he is thinking. I swear I see a slight smile on the corner of his

mouth. “It seems the goddess might not be so cruel after all. Do you know what I am Gwen?” “I know

Luca is a dragon, so I assume you are a dragon. Do you know what I am?” He smirks “shifters can

scent humans and super naturals. I know that you’re human.” “Is me being a human upsetting to you.”

He shakes his head and I see sincerity in his eyes. “I may not be a shifter, but I feel something for you

William. I know how scary this is, because I’m scared too. I believe you are nothing Bruce, but honestly,

I never thought he would hurt me either. I’m willing to give this a chance if you are. We can take it slow

and see how things go.” “I would like that very much.” I stand and sit next to him on the bench. We sit

in comfortable silence for a long while. “We should rejoin the others if you’re ready.” He nods and we

both stand. I didn’t realize how much taller he was until now. He places his hand on the small of my

back and leads me back into the pack house.

Maverick POV

I can’t believe my mother has a mate. I walk back to Ruby in the dining room and she stands wrapping

her arms around me. “How is Gwen?” “They are talking for now. Based on what Luca said, they each

share a past that includes a sh**ty spouse.” “Maybe that’s why the goddess paired them up. She knew

that they both deserved someone that would be faithful and loving.” I’m sure Ruby is right. I just hope

my mother doesn’t get hurt again if he decides he doesn’t want to give her a chance. We sit back down

and Gaylen is pacing in my mind until we finally scent my mother. I turn to see her and William walking

in together. I feel some relief as they rejoin us at the table. Everyone is staring at them waiting for an

answer. My mother looks at me and I raise an eyebrow in question. “William and I are going to date if

you must know.” The table erupts in laughter and I’m happy to see the smile on my mother’s face. I

notice that Ruby is getting a link before her whole body stiffens. “The pack is under attack from

vampires and warlocks.” I look at my mother. “Go, I will protect her”, William says. We rush from the

pack house and once we are outside, we shift. Ranger and Summer are running by our side.

When we reach the border, the patrol guards are already waiting. We are joined by ten more warriors.

Ruby and I shift facing about twenty vampires and ten warlocks. A woman steps forward and I can

scent that she is a witch. “Is this your mate? He’s pretty hot. I can show you what a real woman feels

like, wolfie.” Ruby growls and as much as the girl tries not to let fear creep into her eyes, she fails

miserably. “Keep your eyes off my mate you stupid b**ch.” Jade comes to stand next to Ruby and

Archer stands next to me. I’m glad to see Danica hasn’t joined him but Luca is standing beside his

mate. They are looking between the wolves and the dragon. “What is your business here,” Ruby asks.

“We are here for the girl”, the witch says. Her words bring a growl from all of us and all hell breaks

loose. We all shift and Gaylen is ready to tear these ba**ards apart. They will not hurt that little girl.

Ruby is on the witch in seconds before she can even use her magic. We reach a vampire and he tries

to jump on Gaylen’s back. Gaylen opens his jaws, catching the vampire midair and bites him in half.

When Luca shifts, those that haven’t started fighting run like the cowards they are. A handful of

vampires and three warlocks remain. The warlocks are concentrating their powers on bringing Luca

down. I head straight for the warlock in the middle. By the time he sees me, it’s too late. I clamp my

jaws down on his head, ripping it from his body. The other two warlocks lose concentration and I move

back as Luca lights them both on fire with his breath. The pack is quickly dispatching the remaining

vampires.

“Maverick, something isn’t right” Gaylen says. “I agree these a**holes trying to get to Ella isn’t right.”

“No, I feel like we need to go” is the last thing he says before he takes off. “What the hell are you

doing? We can’t leave our mate and pack until they are all dead.” A few moments later, Ranger is

running by our side. We reach a cottage we have never visited in the pack and the commotion we hear

makes Gaylen growl. We head around the cottage, followed by Ranger. What we see earns the evil

pr*cks in front of us another growl from Gaylen that shakes the trees. Another witch is holding Serina in

the air while Nicholas’s wolf is fighting a vampire. I head for the witch but she disappears before I reach

her. Serina drops to the ground and I shift rushing to her side. “Ella and Levi are in the cottage” she

manages to get out. I turn running as fast as I can into the house and take the stairs two at a time. I

hear the pups crying and throw the door open. The b**ch has her hand wrapped around Ella’s arm as

she is being hit by Levi. “Let my sissy go you mean woman”, he says, and she slaps him away. I head

toward her and she waves at me. F**k she is going to teleport with Ella before I reach her is the last

thought I have as I jump toward her.
