Chapter 2 Warm Sensation

  • LUNA ASTERBELLE’s POV
  • Both of my legs were getting wobbly, I felt like my own body would soon betray me and I would end up dragging Yve into despair together with me. I have thought about it for a few minutes, and I knew that I shouldn’t stay with Yve if I don’t want to place her life in danger.
  • “If you’re planning to cast me away, it’s useless,” Yve muttered.
  • I was about to push her chest so that she would be forced to let go of my wrist, but I guess that I’m such an open book. I couldn’t think of any other way for her to let go of me so I let her be. We were stuck in the middle of the crowd, even though this is just an average cafeteria, there are a lot of people who are considered regular here because of their outstanding menu.
  • My friend was the one leading the way while I was focusing my whole attention at the werewolf who had just recently finished off Joseph. It was only a matter of time before it was able to reach our destination, the wolf was now in front of me. “Y-Y-Yve,” I stuttered her name as my teeth were shaking.
  • The wolf threw the people who were getting in its way.
  • “What?!” Yve shouted due to the commotion, thinking that I would not be able to hear her voice.
  • The moment that I sensed her grip getting tighter, I knew that she saw the same wolf who was inches away from us.
  • “Take this chance to escape, Yve. I’ll handle things here,” I said with a brave front.
  • An instant regret flushed through my mind when it slashed my left arm with such a strong impact. It was enough to make the two of us hit our backs on the wall. I had Yve behind me, so I wasn’t that hurt. She was the one who suffered a lot, her knees were scraped and I know that her body wasn’t in the right condition.
  • “H-hey, get up…” I whispered to her ear as I carefully assisted her to stand up. I winced in pain from the blow that I received from the wolf. “I told you to run.”
  • “Why would I abandon a friend of mine? And besides, you don’t even have a wolf within you!” Tears began to stream down to her cheeks, heading down to her neck.
  • I know that I am completely defenseless against this insane creature, but if I don’t end up sacrificing myself, I would lose Yve. I took advantage of the fact that she can no longer walk properly without anyone’s assistance. I stepped forth towards the wolf and gave him a death glare.
  • “What do you want? Why are you creating a mess in our city?” I politely asked him.
  • “Luna.”
  • My face flushed as heat rose up to my head. I didn’t know if he was referring to me or was it some Alpha or Beta’s Luna.
  • He raised his claw and pointed a finger on me. “Luna,” he repeated.
  • My eyebrows furrowed as I heaved out a sigh. “Can’t you say anything else other than Luna?”
  • I was sent flying through mid-air in my second inquiry, he used his muscular legs to kick me on my stomach. He must have noticed that I was just buying enough time for the people inside the cafeteria. It felt like my bones got dislocated, my frail body was numb. I could no longer muster up the strength to stand back on my own feet. The only thing that I could do was to watch him walking closer and closer to me, trapping me in the corner.
  • Closing my eyes in fear of what would happen to me, I heard Yve’s continuous wailing as she pleaded for help to save me. There were no footsteps approaching my direction, maybe it was the time that I should accept what my fate is…
  • That I would die without reaching my legal years and without experiencing transforming into a werewolf. I still had a lot of ambitions in life, I wanted to repay my parents for everything that they have done for me. I wanted to prove to them that all of their blood and sweat weren’t for nothing. That I would end up becoming someone’s queen, someone’s luna.
  • I tilted my head sideways as I could literally sense his hot breath directed on my neck. He kept on sniffing me from whichever part of my body. “D-dont kill me…” Disgust for myself and fear for my life were the things that I got stuck in mind as I uttered those three words.
  • Despite the cold temperature from the air condition inside the cafeteria, a strong wind of heat flowed inside. It brushed off my skin and after a few seconds, I unconsciously opened my eyes. Only to witness that the werewolf was no longer in front of me.
  • And instead of a hungry beast, a man covered in a black hoodie gained my attention. “Who are you?” I’m certain that he was the one who sent such an impactful presence that made me open my eyes.
  • Before I even got to hear his response, Yve came running to my direction and pulled me away from the corner of the cafe. She immediately brought me out of that place, even though something was giving me the urge to go back. That warm sensation that I felt earlier was the first for me, I haven’t sensed it from anyone else.
  • “I have to go back… I must know the identity of that man!” I told Yve, but she just wouldn’t budge.
  • “Have you gone insane as well, Luna? I told you to snap out of it already!” Yve didn’t hesitate to slap me twice with the same hand.
  • My heart was thumping in milliseconds, I couldn’t get it back to its normal state no matter how many times I breathed in and out as calmly as I could. I’ve been feeling mixed emotions just because of that unknown man’s appearance; excitement, anxiety, and even this nonstop heating sensation from deep within my soul.
  • He must have some connection with me… but, why?
