“You little minx,” Gideon growled shoving me against the wall pinning me there with his body. To an outsider it might have looked aggressive, but I saw the devilish glint in his eye. The door had barely closed behind my father before Gideon was on me.

I bit my lip feigning nervousness. I’d gone over his head by telling my father the plans to bring the wolves out. If I had been anyone else or if it hadn’t worked out so well, I’m sure I’d’ve seen a different reaction from the werewolf. “I told you he needed to know and you just hate that I was right.”

His green eyes narrowed and I stared right back at him refusing to break the connection first.

“I like seeing you take on the role of my mate and stepping into your place as Luna.”

“You’re not mad?”

“I’m furious,” he grinned.

“Then why are you smiling?” His mirth was making feel uneasy.

“Because I’m thinking just how I’m going to punish you. You’re not Luna yet and even if you were, you still went against my order.”

“You seem to think that I’m yours to command. I’m not.” When he did nothing more than stare at me, I began shifting nervously. “And it all worked out. My father is going to support you,” I babbled.

“But it might not have and then where would we be?” He leaned in, his mouth hovering over mine. When I tilted my head to close the distance he moved just out of reach before moving in again. By the third time of him pulling back, I growled in frustration.

“Is this how you’re going to punish me?”

“You want a kiss?”

I nodded. Gideon leaned in and kissed me just enough to cause desire to pool between my thighs then he withdrew. It wasn’t nearly enough.

“More,” I demanded.

He shook his head. “I think that’s enough for now.” He released me and I stumbled forward trying to swallow down my desire. “We have plans for today.”

Grabbing my hand, he led me from the throne room. I glanced back thinking how empowering it would have been to take him while he sat in that chair, a king on his throne.

My curiosity piqued when we headed outside and the sight of the wolves congregating mirrored what I thought the gathering for the full moon would look like, which was still days away, not to mention it was daylight.

“What’s going on?” I finally asked.

“This month we have a super moon and the pack is already enduring restlessness as it approaches.”

“What’s she doing here?” Carla sniped as she saw Gideon tug me closer to the pack.

“She is my mate and has every right to be a part of pack functions.”

“Why? She can’t possibly participate.”

“Gideon,” I spoke calmly attempting to draw his attention back to me. I still had no idea what was going on. He ignored me addressing the pack as a whole.

“Today we will not be shifting as my mate will be joining us.” There were a few grumbles, but most kept any complaint, if they felt it, to themselves.
