My Fated Human Luna Chapter 153

6 Her Honor

Archer POV

I know why my father’s angry but he has to understand I’m not a child anymore. He doesn’t need to protect me from the evil of the world. I am a warrior. I debate whether to tell him about my mate but I won’t keep secrets from him. “Dad, I’m fine. We scented the vampires and I alerted the other warriors to join us. Wesley and I were handling the situation until the others arrived. I do need to speak to you in private about something.” “He orders the remaining warriors to stay near the border and increase patrols. We reach the pack house and Lazlo is pacing in my mind. “We have to find her Archer.” “Calm down, we will but right now we need to figure out why she and the others were attacking the pack.” He quiets and once we are in the office my father turns to me. “How many vampires were involved in the attack?” “There were three who attacked but seven in total.” “There was eight counting the hot vampire chick,” Wesley says. I growl and I’m sure my eyes darken when he speaks about my mate. If this was any other man I would have him against a wall for speaking about my mate like that. When I look back at my father he has a smirk on his face.

“Is this what you wanted to talk in private about?” “Yes, the female vampire is my mate.” He comes to stand in front of me and wraps me in a hug. “We will figure it out, Archer. We will go to the coven and see if Porter has any idea what coven these vampires came from.” “Thank you dad.” “I’m sorry Archer. I didn’t mean to disrespect your mate” Wesley says. I chuckle “I know you didn’t and she is hot.” We leave my father’s office and resume our patrol but I can’t get that beautiful woman out of my head. I just pray that she is more interested in mating and marking than killing me and my pack members.

The Next Day

Gwen POV

I can’t wait to wake up in some place other than this hospital. “Rise and shine Ms. Colwell. I have your breakfast for you” Bianca my nurse says. “You’re in a good mood today. I guess that blind date went pretty well.” “You could say that” she says with a chuckle. She helps me sit up and puts my tray in front of me. “I’m going to miss you when you leave Gwen.” “I’m going to miss you girls too. I’ll have to come back to visit once my treatments are all done.” She smiles before she leaves the room. I pick up the remote and turn on the TV. I can hear a familiar voice coming from the hallway. A few minutes later, my door opens and I’m shocked to see Delilah, especially when I realize she is alone. She and I have never been close and I can’t see her coming to visit me unless Maverick brought her. “Delilah is everything alright.” I can see tears in her eyes. A pit forms in my stomach. “Delilah, is Maverick alright?” She starts to nod and sob at the same time.

“Gwen, Maverick is angry with me and I need your help to make him understand how sorry I am. I didn’t cheat, I swear to you.” “Delilah, what the hell happened?” “I went out with the girls and I had too much to drink” she says as she sobs. “I was dancing with some random guy. It was only dancing I swear to you. Maverick walked up to me and he wouldn’t even let me explain. I would never do anything to hurt Maverick. You know that Gwen. I love him.” I let her finish before I finally interject. “I’m confused about what you want me to do about this situation Delilah?” “I need you to speak with him. Maverick and I are engaged. I didn’t cheat and I deserve a chance to make things right.” “I understand that you’re sorry for whatever happened, Delilah, but I can’t make Maverick forgive you. This is between the two of you.” “I just need you to talk to him, please.” “Delilah, what the hell are you doing here?” I turn to Maverick’s voice.

Maverick POV

I arrive at the hospital before I head to the office. It was nice of Ruby to offer to have the holistic healer see my mother, but I need to speak to her first. When I arrive outside my mother’s room and I can hear two voices. When I realize who the second voice is I can’t believe she would come here knowing that my mother is sick and bother her about our issues. “Maverick, I just thought” I cut her off. “You thought

that if you pleaded with my mother who is in the hospital I would forget what you did. This is completely inappropriate and I want you to leave.” She stands and walks toward me. I step back. “Delilah, I think I made myself clear the last time we spoke.” “Maverick, we’re engaged. We’re supposed to be getting married in a few months. This was all a mistake.” “Delilah, this is neither the time nor the place to continue this conversation. I am here to visit my mother, so please leave.”

She rushes from the room and I take a deep breath. “Do you want to tell me what the hell that was all about?” I chuckle “I wasn’t keeping it from you mom. I just want you to focus on getting better.” “Maverick James Colwell, you do not keep things from me. I don’t care what your reason is. Do I make myself clear?” I smile “yes mom, I promise I won’t keep any more secrets.” “Good, now sit down and tell me what happened.” I take a seat on the bottom of her bed. I tell her exactly what happened. I see sympathy in her eyes and I know what she is thinking about. “Are you sure that this is what you want to do? I know you love Delilah.” I take a deep breath. “I don’t want you making this decision because of what your father did.” I smile “mom, I’m making this decision because I need trust and what she did destroyed that. I cannot wonder about what she has done or what she will do in the future.” “I’m proud of the man that you have become.” “Thank you, mom.”

“Now to what do I owe this unplanned visit,” my mother asks. I almost forgot the reason I came after dealing with Delilah. “I was wondering if it would be alright for me to bring a holistic healer to see you.” She chuckles “when did you meet a holistic healer?” “I know a lot of people, mom.” She c*cks her head and grins at me. “Fine, Ruby actually offered to bring her if it’s alright.” She smiles like she knows a secret. “She is my boss mom nothing more.” “Alright I believe you. I would love to meet this holistic healer and your boss in person.” “Am I going to regret this mom?” She slaps my leg. “Give your mother a hug and get to work. I hug her and head out of the hospital. I drive the thirty minutes to the office. When I arrive I only have half an hour before the meeting with Mr. Brenard.

Ruby POVCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

I head out to the SUV and the girls are already waiting. I laugh when I see they are all wearing business dresses. I don’t ever think I’ve seen Brooklyn in a dress. “Not a word Ruby.” I laugh and raise my hands in surrender. We all hop in the SUV and head toward the office. I lead them up to my floor to wait in my office until after the meeting. “Wow, this is a nice office, Ruby” Jade says. “Yes, I love my office.” A knock sounds on the door and when it opens Jennifer pokes her head in. “Ms. Solace, Mr. Bernard is here and waiting for you and the others in the conference room.” “Thank you, Jennifer. I’ll be right in.” I gather my folders and head toward the conference room. I step inside and Mr. Bernard stands to greet me. “Aren’t you pretty” he says as he shakes my hand longer than necessary. “I already don’t like this a**hole”, Gemma says. “I agree but I can deal with the a**hole to make this deal for the company.” I set the folders down on the table and offer him a seat.

“Now what kind of gentleman would I be if I didn’t pull your chair out.” He pulls the chair and when I sit down he touches my shoulder. Someone clearing their throat gets my attention. I turn to see Maverick and Connor. Maverick looks angry. I wonder what happened to upset him. I shake those thoughts away and focus on the meeting. “Mr. Bernard, I’m glad we could meet today. Maverick and Connor have gotten me up to speed on the deal that your real estate company has made for the six properties. I believe that our company would be a great asset in helping you secure this deal.” “Now I understand that Stephen is your grandfather”, Mr. Bernard says. “Actually, he is my great grandfather but I’m confused about what that has to do with the deal.” He chuckles “I understand that your grandfather, wanted to keep the company in the family, but I don’t think a woman should be in charge. Maverick was doing a fine job. Maybe you should just sit in your office and look pretty.” I’m just about to tell him exactly what he can do with his deal when Maverick beats me to the punch.

“Mr. Bernard, I believe it’s time for you to leave.” “Excuse me” he says, not believing what he is hearing. “I think you heard me just fine. Ruby Solace is more capable at this job than half the men I know and the fact that you would insinuate otherwise because she is a woman is ludicrous. I’m sure that Ruby would agree that we will not be doing business with a man like you.” He looks toward me. “I believe you heard my VP. You can see yourself out of my building.” I stand leaving the conference room. As I walk

down the hall toward my office I don’t know what I feel more, anger or gratitude. Even though I could have handled that a**hat myself, I didn’t feel like Maverick viewed me as weak. I open the door to my office and the girls look toward me. “That meeting was fast”, Brooklyn says. I fill them in on everything that just happened. “He handled that like a true Alpha” Jade says and I roll my eyes. “I’ll be back. I need to go talk to him.”

I head toward his office and I can hear Connor and Maverick talking. “What the hell did I just do” Maverick says. “I believe that you defended the honor of our new boss”, Connor says. I chuckle to myself. “She doesn’t seem like the kind of woman who needs me to protect her, but I couldn’t sit there and listen to that pr*ck talk to her that way” Maverick says and I smile. “Are you smiling about our mate?” “Settle down Gemma it’s just a smile.” I knock on his office door and open it. Connor smiles when he sees me. “Connor, can I speak to Maverick alone for a moment?” “Of course” he says and leaves closing the door behind him. “I’m sorry Ruby. I know I shouldn’t have said those things. I overstepped” I raise my hand to stop him from apologizing. “I came in here to thank you for what you said. I appreciate you having my back. I meant what I said about the VP position. You have earned that.” He smiles and goddess I could look at that face all day. I look away to stay focused.

“I brought my healer friend to meet you before we go to see your mom.” “Great, I spoke with her and she is on board with meeting her and you in person.” “I’ll warn you before you come to my office that my sister and other best friend are here too.” He chuckles “I’m glad to meet anyone that is important to you.” His words make warmth bloom in my chest. I lead him to my office and I pray that the girls are on their best behavior. I open the office door and the three of them are standing there with huge smiles on their faces and I know they were listening to our conversation. Goddess help me with these three women.
