True Luna: The Final Battle: Chapter 21
Andrew’s POV
“Is she crazy?!” my mate yelled as she ran inside our house.
I rushed toward her and pulled her into my arms. I took a deep breath, letting her scent calm me.
“Oh, I missed you so fucking much,” I mumbled as I lowered my head and buried my nose into her neck.
Daisy sighed and ran her fingers through my hair. She kissed my cheek and I tightened my arms around her.
“I missed you too,” she said quietly. “I missed you so much.”
I kissed my mark on her neck and I felt her shiver.
“How is my little buddy?” I asked her after a few moments of silence.
I didn’t let her go. I couldn’t. I missed her so much and I needed to hold her as long as possible. I needed her comfort.
“He is doing great,” she said as she placed another kiss on my cheek. “Drake and Amy are going out of their way to entertain them and take their minds off this mess.”
I gulped and nodded. I missed my son, but I was glad that he was doing okay.
“Janet came to get Harry, but he refused to leave,” Daisy said. “I think that he and Mike might be mates.”
I smiled and raised my head to look at my beautiful mate.
“You think so?” I asked. “Is it possible that they can already feel it?”
Daisy shrugged and caressed my cheek.
“I am not sure,” she said. “We will have to wait and see.”
I smiled and leaned in to kiss her soft lips. She moaned quietly and the sound made me shiver. I missed her so fucking much.
“You can’t leave me again,” I mumbled against her lips. “I missed you too fucking much.”
I felt her smile. She tightened her hold on me and kissed me again. I was in fucking heaven and all the things that were bugging me suddenly disappeared. I couldn’t remember what was I afraid of. I couldn’t remember the things I was angry about. I couldn’t remember anything. Her lips and her presence were a cure for every ache in my body and my soul.
She stopped kissing me and reminded me of the thing that made my stomach twist and my heart spasm.
“How is Emma?” she asked, making me close my eyes and groan.
Daisy ran her fingers through my hair and I took a deep breath.
“I am so angry at her,” I mumbled as I leaned my forehead against Daisy’s. “I am so scared. She almost died, Daisy. If something happens to her…”
“Stop it, Andrew,” Daisy interrupted me. “Nothing will happen to her. She will be okay. She will find a way to deal with it. I am sure of it.”
I gulped and took another deep breath. Daisy’s scent entered my lungs and it helped me calm down a little.
“How is Sophia?” Daisy asked. “How did she take it?”
I lifted my head and sighed.
“Not well,” I said. “She tried to convince Emma to give the darkness back to her.”
Daisy nodded and furrowed her eyebrows a little.
“I am so angry at her, but I know that I would have done the same,” Daisy said.
I tightened my jaw and closed my eyes. I knew why Emma did it. I understood it from a parent’s perspective. I wanted to take Sophia’s darkness myself. I wanted to make sure that Sophia was safe. I loved that little girl so much. She reminded me of Emma in so many ways and I loved her even more because of it.
But speaking from a brother’s perspective, I was terrified. Watching Emma lying on the ground and not moving reminded me of all those times I almost lost her. It reminded me of the fear and the pain I felt thinking that I would never see her again. Not to mention how the fact that I always saw myself as Emma’s parent. I always said that she was like a child to me and that was the truth. I still saw her as that little girl I raised. I still saw her as that little girl I watched grow up. She would always be my child in my eyes. It didn’t matter how old she was. I still needed and wanted to protect her.
“There had to be another way,” I mumbled. “There had to be another way to contain the darkness without tying it to Emma.”
Daisy caressed my cheek and I opened my eyes. She gave me a small smile and leaned in to kiss me again.
“I want to go see her,” Daisy said as he pulled away.
Logan? I mind-linked him.
Yes? He responded immediately.
Is Emma awake? I asked. Daisy is here. She wants to see her.
She is. Logan said. Jake is here and he is currently yelling at her.
We will be right there. I said, cutting our mind-link.
“Logan says she is awake,” I said as I tucked a strand of Daisy’s hair behind her ear. “Jake is yelling at her.”
Daisy snorted and shook her head.
“Of course he is,” she said. “I’m betting his rant is even worse than yours or Logan’s.”
I chuckled and placed a small kiss on her lips.
“Logan wasn’t as angry as he was scared,” I said. “I yelled at Anna more than at Emma.”
“Why?” Daisy asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
“Emma gave Anna the power of the room,” I explained. “I wanted her to open the door and she wouldn’t do it.”
Daisy sighed and gave me a small nod.
“Let’s go see her,” Daisy said as she tried to step away from me.
I stopped her and pulled her back to my chest. I lowered my head and started sucking on my mark on her neck.
“In a few minutes,” I said as I started walking until we reached the wall.
Daisy moaned as I picked her up and squeezed her butt. She wrapped her legs around my waist and reached between us to unbutton my jeans. I reached under her skirt and moved her underwear to the side. She was already wet and ready for me.
I slid inside her and leaned my forehead against her shoulder. I focused on her and on the amazing feeling of being inside her.
I needed to forget everything and my mate’s incredible body was a perfect place to do so.
