The Last Royal Luna
Chapter 31

I followed them up to the top floor but hesitated at the door. This was their floor and I was now going to be in their territory not my own where I knew I ruled the roost. I was safe in my territory but here in the unknown there was more risk. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before entering. They all had sat down in the joined living room and waited for me to head over to them. I was about to abort mission when Blue growled at me. Why did I have to have such a strong damn wolf? She snickered before sitting up at attention.

“Ryder. I think it is time to talk about this mate business and set aside our differences. I know my wolf is whining and already lovesick over it all. I am not trying to pressure you into having s*x and I will wait for however long it will take for you to fully trust me, but I need have traveled for over a year now searching for my mate. Now that I have you, I want to be able to pull you close, breath in your beautiful scent, and love on you until duty calls that day. I want to fall asleep with you next to me and wake up with your beautiful body beside mine. I am going to lay it all out on the line and tell you how scared I am that you don’t feel any of this. Please don’t reject us just because of my father and the other two s**t heads.” Asher had a lone tear sliding down his face and my heart broke. I ran over to him and tackled him into the back of the couch. I straddled him after sitting up and I licked his tear off his face. I could feel Blake and Andrew’s gaze on me but right now I needed to comfort Asher.

“Asher I am NOT going to reject any of you. Yes I am being cautious but you can’t blame me. You have shown who you are within the short time I have known you and you are amazing. I trust you and I want to be able to do all those things with you. How about we start small with hand holding and k****s to slowly lead to anything else? I am not a patient person so I doubt just having those will last very long so have faith in me and in the mate bond. “I leaned into his chest and wrapped my arms around his neck. He tightened his grip on my body and kissed my forehead. I felt a big breath release and I knew he was feeling better.

“Thank the goddess, Ryder. I will take what I can get. I will be a hungry b***h for you any day of the week. But now my question is about the other two?” He ended his question there and I knew what he wanted to know. Hell, the other two were waiting for my answer to that as well. I leaned up and kissed him on the lips softly before pulling back and looking into his eyes. I could read the l**t and love in them, and it made me hungry for another k**s so I shot back to his lips and kissing with my all. I wanted to show him that I wanted this just as much as he did and that I was promises the future. I slid off his lap and sat down beside him ignoring his shocked face before facing my other two mates.

“So I need you two to feel even a small portion of the same pain you caused me to even consider doing what I just did with Asher. I will let you know now that I will most likely get you back occasionally, for the rest of our lives. I am just a petty girl and you have to be ok with it.” I winked before continuing with my answer. “ I need a show of faith that you will do anything to make this work because that is what I am doing. I am pushing myself to get over everything in the past and focusing on the future that we will share. Deal?”

They both shouted deal and it tickled me that they were so in sync with proving themselves and each other. They sat up straighter waiting for their punishment and I had to admit I was getting a bit excited about it as well. I had thought about it for a while now and they better say yes. I smiled like a crazy lady at them and I could sense their fear. Blue was like a lady mob boss reveling in their feelings and couldn’t wait for their reactions.

“I would like for you to wear a sexy dress to school tomorrow including a thong and push up bra. I remember a time when I wore a dress to school that was on the shorter side but still better than your ex’s wore. You both walked up to me and slut shamed me in front of the whole cafeteria. I told you to eat me and you told me you don’t eat dirty food.” I paused to see if they remember that and I could see the pain in their eyes.

Asher jumped up and growled at them both. I had a feeling I was going to have to hold his plump booty back from hurting them. “YOU DID WHAT? ANDREW YOU ARE THE BIGGEST SLUT IN THIS PACK AND BLAKE IS RUNNER UP!” Ouch, I didn’t need that fact shouted around but it was the truth.

“I am so sorry. I wish I could take it back and do better. I can’t but I can do better in the future. I was in the wrong and I hate that I hurt you all the time.” Andrew slid down to the floor on his knees like he was praying or worshipping me. I was going to go with the second one because it made me feel good.

Blake slid down beside Andrew and hung his head. “I am so ashamed of what we did and I hope that everything we do from now until the end of our time will be to make up for that.”

“Do you regret it because it was wrong to do to anyone or because it was done to Ryder?” Asher had sat back down at this point and put his hand on my knee. He was slowly becoming my rock in all of this and it was something that was needed.

“Honestly, at first it was because we had done it to Ryder and I know that is wrong. Now that I have had time to see it from your side and see how you felt when it happened, I know it was wrong in general.” Andrew looked over at Blake and he was shaking his head in agreement. I am glad they have learned their lesson but if I hear they are still pulling this s**t with other girls they have no idea how vindictive I could be.

“Ok. Thank you both. Now to add to your punishment for being douchebags. Tomorrow for school along with wearing dresses I want you to wear a sign front and back saying that your my b***h. I want all the girls to know hands off and the guys to know you have changed your ways. Along with you actually having to do as I say and get anything I want. Just a heads up I am craving Chinese tomorrow for lunch and same for my friends.” Both guys had their mouths open but didn’t fight back. “Good boys on not fighting back. Want a treat?” I laughed hard enough to snort which caused the guys to laugh with me.

Asher kissed me before asking us what we wanted for dinner. I voted for pizza and some dessert variety but the others wanted something healthier with more protein. I had no idea how this was going to work out with us knowing they like healthy food and I just rolled my eyes at them. Asher just looked back at his phone probably looking for somewhere we could get both delivered. I am glad he knew I needed a break from the pack and didn’t ask me to join them for their dinner. Speaking of family dinner I needed to text my mom and give her an update. I looked at the clock and couldn’t believe it was six at night. I started to look for my cell phone and I couldn’t replace it.

“Baby, why are you rubbing all over your body? You still have a bit before your first heat hits.” Blake eyed me like I was crazy and when he mentioned ‘my heat’ I started to freak out over that along with my phone.

“Well s**t bricks. I forgot all about heat. We are going to have to get some chains, ice, and tons of food to keep my a*s in my parents basement or ill be claiming your asses whenever I see you.” My face heated a bit but I turned away from them so they wouldn’t notice. “Also I can’t replace my phone. I bet my parents are freaking out a bit.”

“Ryder you left your phone in the car. I just had an omega go get it and your mom texted me earlier. She knows where we are and that you are safe. She also said your cute tushy better be in school tomorrow. I agree with her cute tushy comment and I am ok with you claiming me all the time. “He winked before going back to his phone to order some food for us.

“Thanks for all of that. I am gonna get in the shower…” I knew I had just made it awkward but I didn’t care. “So where is the bathroom and can I borrow something to sleep in?” I refused to look up at them and just kept my hands clasped in front of me. ‘Quit being such a damn wussy! Tell them your inexperienced. They will love that.’ Blue wouldn’t just shut her trap. I shoved her back so I wouldn’t have to listen to her for a bit. With all her pacing and sexy talk I need a bit of a break.

Blake walked up to me and lifted my chin with his finger. “Ryder there is nothing to be ashamed of when speaking with your mates. Heat happens to all mated females and we will be wherever you need us to get through it. “ Could my face get any redder? Yes, it could and it did. “The guest bathroom is in the guest bedroom which is the last door on the left. I will grab you something from all of us so it makes us on even footing.” He winked at me and it made me feel better.

I started to walk away but turned back around. I coughed to get their attention before anyone left. “So I just need you to know that I know you all have had numerous partners and done everything imaginable with another girl. I don’t hold it against you but it does make me feel insecure and nervous.”

They all started to walk toward me but I held my hand out. I just needed a minute to myself before I freaked out. Asher asked why before the others could defend themselves.

I looked at all three of them before answering. “I am a virgin. Not just a virgin in the sense of i*********e but in the sense of I have only kissed and held hands a few times. I understand if that changes your mind on being my mate and I understand.” Before I could turn and run to the bathroom, they were all on me touching me on my arms and back. They all had the biggest smiles on their faces, and it was making me feel a bit scared.

Asher kissed my cheek before whispering in my ear,” You have no idea how happy you have made us and our wolves. I am sorry we didn’t wait like we should of, and we all have another burden to bear. We will take it at your pace and show you that you beat out any other female for just being you. “The others nodded, and I had hit my limit on feelings so I ran to the bathroom leaving them in my dust.
