On Sunday, After the morning exercise drills with the team and the seniors. Mich head home take a shower and Puts her clip on hair extensions, open her suitcase pulling out her Dress in a polo neck ‘crop top’ (she recently bought), fitted skirt that knee length and gladiators scandal. She runs down stairs when she sees his car about to pull up. When she reaches the last step, turns to the Dining table the family are sitting down there playing some monopoly board game. “The parents are home, “she looks at the table shocked and confuse
” What’s going on… never mind, I have a date, with Luca” The parents got up walking towards her, she has a hand on the door handle about to dash out …
” Oh no you don’t ...” Mel says as he grabs he hand “he better come in here to get u” than Amanda looks at her concern” Are you sure about this? Going out with him” She holds up the locket, pinch her eyebrows together confidently
“Yes, I totally can handle it” She pull her hand away from Mel reaching for the door handle, open “Luca, these are the parents you’ve meet before,” than she grabs Luca by the arm dragging him away. Luca just waves away as they reach the car and drive of. “So we’ll do Lunch picnic by the Lake, then a movie than I’ll take you home for dinner. My mom can cook up a mean plate” Luca tells her of the plans for the day.
“Picnic by the lake? That lake…NO juniors allowed” She laughs teasing him, they laugh together.’ Home, isn’t that by the pack…mean I don’t think it a good idea. I still have a match on Monday” with her hands covering her face in frustration.
“Come on, I promise we won’t be going near the pack house. It will be dinner with my family… say Yes?” he says pleading her with puppy eyes.
“Yes!” she said without thinking twice. They enjoyed the picnic…She ask him to explains why he calls her ‘lil wolf’.
” I’ve seen your wolf, girl and anyway you both are soooo tiny. My lil wolf…” He says with a smile on his face. Kissing her on the cheek. “You know my friends thought you were 13” they laugh.
After the movie they drive over to his home., He does the formalities and they have dinner together. When they finished Luca says “let’s go up to my room,” she complies. She feels the land of the pack is different, she starts to feel her wolf which is whimpering and groaning…every step she takes up to his room. When they get there he shows her around, It’s a lovely spacious room a king size bed, two downs on one side, one door is bathroom and there is a closet.” What do you think?” she barely hears the question as her hand start to ache, throbbing ‘it lovely “he walks close to her kissing her lips till she starts to feel her lungs burning, she pulls away “it… lovely…I like …it’ she says while panting for air.
“Move in with me…mean after your birthday or in May, maybe” She is about to nod yes a but headache, as if she is hearing a siren/alarm loud in her loud, when she hears echo of her wolf howling and whimpering like it’s her death… She faints. She wakes up 30min later… on his family couch. Luca had rush her downstairs to Luna Sabrina ,she is a healer witch.
“She’s up…Luca.” The Luna puts Mich locket around her neck “She needs you, please wear this for now” she gives Luca a bracelet and left them alone in the room. Luca puts on the bracelet his mother just gave him.
“Mich, I’m so sorry “He hands her water to drink as she sits up in the couch. “The Luna just told me my powers are back, my mother is a witch she past her power to me… They weren’t supposed to work on my ma…” He stops looks at her with watery eyes, pulls her close to him kissing her forehead. Than he sat next to her. “There is something, different about, you I don’t know what it is and I sensed it even yesterday. And it makes you vulnerable to my power of persuasion. Your wolf isn’t healing you fast enough anyway it causing your brain blood vessels to explode…I guess that how you ended up fainting.”
She looks at her locket, with teary eyes “Please, take me home”. On the drive home there was silent in the car. They both felt guilty. She felt guilt for locking her wolf away, but she still wanted “THE MAN OF the MATCH” title. He couldn’t believe he just almost killed his own mate. But what was it that made her vulnerable… When will she be mine he wonder…Mark. When they pulled up, he walked out to open the door for her. She gave him a kiss on the cheek and “we’ll talk after the match” and she ran into the house. When Luca gets back home he sees the coach’s car. “What’s he doing here?”
