The Perfect Luna

“Riannon!” Gideon brought her closer to him as she was kicking and screaming. He was confused at first but soon realised that something was happening to her and when she started crying, calling his name, he simply pressed her against him, holding her hands in place so that she wouldn’t hurt herself.

“Mars,” he called his wolf, “Try reaching Onyx.” 

His wolf growled in agreement and he lost him for a few moments. But then Riannon

opened her eyes full of tears and looked at him in disbelief. It was as if she tried to recognise him and for a second there he was worried that she couldn’t.

“Gideon,” her lips trembled as she tried to catch her ragged breathing and focus her gaze on him. She was shivering and when he let go of her hands, she reached his face with shaky fingers. She traced carefully almost every strong line of his. 

“It‘s me, Riannon,” his voice was practically a whisper because he was afraid to scare her again, “It’s me. It was just a dream.”

“Gideon!” she threw herself in his arms, lacing her own around him so that there wasn’t any air left between the two of them. She felt his warmth and breathed in his scent, tears burning her eyes. It was him. He was alive. What she saw… it didn’t happen yet.

“It wasn’t a dream,” she finally managed to distance herself from him, “Gideon, Onyx showed me the past. And it was so horrible.”

“We already knew that it was horrible,” his voice was calm as he took away a strand of hair that stuck to her face. His tranquillity helped her find some inner peace too.

“It’s different to know and to see,” she looked him in the eyes with a newfound determination, “We can’t let any of this happen. It was so bad… Gideon, me and Maya weren’t the only ones to die… I saw you holding Reid…dead… And then you...” 

She stopped talking as tears were suffocating her.

“I don’t want anything like this to ever happen to you,” she sniffed. He pulled her into a hug and let her cry as much as she needed, “This... future… It cannot… happen.” Her words were punctuated with sobs as she indulged herself in his warmness.

“Ria,” he sounded tense and his whole body was rigid, “Did you… by any chance see Savvy there?”

“No,” she took a deep breath and sat up, “I didn’t see her. But… what I saw couldn’t fighting wolves.”

“Tell me everything you saw,” he placed his palms on her shoulders, “Every single detail.” And she did, starting with her own murder and finishing with the last moment she saw

him alive.

“I am so sorry you had to go through this,” he kissed her temple as he held her in his arms. She was leaning over his chest, and he was brushing circles with his fingers on her bare

skin.

“I am fine now,” she said. And it was the truth. The past faded and being close to her mate was definitely helping, their bond giving her the confidence and strength that she needed. Besides, her brain started ticking. Yes, it was terrible to see her own death again, it was disgusting to see her enemies win and it was heart-breaking to see her mate die. But between all those events she found crucial pieces of information.

“The Northern king,” she looked at Gideon, “They were so afraid that you would form an alliance with him. This is exactly what we need to do.”

“Yeah, about that,” the lycan rubbed his forehead, “They were worried for nothing. There is no way that ask hole and I would ever form an alliance.”

“I am sensing that there is a story there,” Riannon quirked her brow up. Whatever that story was, she was sure she could persuade them both. This was what she was born for.

“There is,” he admitted, “But it’s not for today. You’ve been through too much and you 

need rest. Let’s go to sleep.” Daily new chapters in www.noveljar.com

“No,” she shook her head and brushed her palm over his cheek with short stubble, “I don’t want to sleep. I want to be with you. I want you...” 

“Riannon, you have no idea what those words do to me,” he let out a soft snarl, “what you do to me...” 

“I don’t want to waste any time,” she whispered, straddling him and leaning forward to touch his hot lips with hers. “If today proved anything, it is that every moment is precious. We never met each other in our past lives. They were wasted because of that. I don’t want to ever be separated from you. I don’t want to live even a minute of my life without you want to have your mark on my neck and I want it now.” 

“Ria,” now an internal growl escaped his chest that was going up and down, “You know that I want this more than anything. But… You deserve a beautiful ceremony. I want to give only the best to my queen…” ceremony that I want. Trust me, they are overrated. I had a beautiful marking ceremony once and look how that ended. It means nothing to me. But you, Gideon, you mean everything. Give me your mark. Please.”

“You don’t have to ask me twice,” he growled and in one sharp move placed her back on the bed, towering over her, “When my Queen wants something, she doesn’t have to repeat herself.”

She was wearing only a thin white silk slip and he caressed her body through it, teasing her and making her arch her back. Their breathing was getting faster together and when he pulled the fabric down to expose her breasts, a sound of approval emerged from the depth of his body at the sight of her firm ni*ples. He lowered himself and inhaled one while tugging the other in between his fingers as he took a handful of her. 

Amoan escaped her, and then another. Riannon’s delicate fingers intwined in his dark hair as she encouraged him to go on. He tore off her and went all the way up to her face only to crash his lips into hers, to taste her. Their tongues tangled as they shared one breath, the kiss overwhelming all their senses. But at the same time, his hand was rolling the silk up to expose more of her to him. She laced her thighs around his torso and that made him pant in an

instant. His hardness was already evident against her stomach. Daily new chapters in www.noveljar.com

“Mark me,” she said when he finally was able to break from her and now was taking in her beautiful body. 

“Not yet,” a menacing chuckle escaped him as his fingers found the fabric of her lacy underwear. He pulled it all the way down, relieving her of it. And then he yanked her to the edge of the bed, kneeling in front and spreading her wider for him. She felt his hot breathing on her sensitive core and moaned when his tongue finally reached it. He made just one sensual stroke and watched her reaction as her body shuddered in his hands. Gideon liked what he saw, he liked that control over her. Especially since he knew that he would lose his own in a matter of mere minutes thanks to that woman. He loved her too much, he wanted her too much. 

“Gideon, please!” she almost whined, desperate for him to do more. And he was happy to oblige, tasting her essence on his lips as his tongue probed her. Mars wanted to take over him but it wasn’t the time yet. Grasping the bare flesh of her bottom, the lycan king placed her things onto his shoulders, going deeper and faster.

“Look at me,” he growled and she obeyed him, their eyes locking as her breasts bounced sensitive bundle of nerves, while at the same time inserting two fingers into her.

A loud moan left her this time as he pumped the fingers in and out, curling them inside in

search of her most responsive spot. He already knew where it was, so he found it with ease, taking up the speed. Riannon shuddered from all the pleasure that was overtaking her way too fast, but he held her in place with his free hand as he went on, and on, and on... 

The rel*ase exploded through her, making her forget even her own name. But not his. His was on her lips all the time as he kept caressing her and bringing her to her next climax.

“Gideon!” the sounds were becoming desperate in her need for him. But right when she

was coming to her peak once again, he stopped doing everything and got his fingers out of her.

She tried to catch her breath as she watched him questioningly. There was no way she was

ready to stop now.

But when he unbuckled his pants and discarded them, her lips curved into a little smile. She found strength to stand right next to him and traced her palm all the way from his chest to

his hardness. At the same time, the lycan hooked the straps of her slip and made it fall to their

feet.

She lowered herself slowly, still looking into his eyes, and then stroked him gently a few times before bringing his hard flesh to her lips. Slowly, she wrapped them around him and took him in. As much as she could because there was no way to take all of his length. 

A growl left him as he entwined his fingers into her hair as if she was his anchor. She
