The Most Wanted Luna novel Chapter 5

Kayla's POV

When I turned around and saw that Aidan was still shirtless, I realized they must’ve figured out what we were doing. Embarrassment washed all over me as we all stood there silently – not Aidan though, he was unbothered. He opened the refrigerator and poured himself a glass of water, drank it in one gulp, and then poured another and walked up to me before handing me the glass of water.

I didn’t know what to do so I just held the glass cup in my hand and looked at the floor. Aidan stood behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist before kissing my cheek, it betrayed me and must’ve become so red as I blushed because Tia seemed even more surprised than before.

“ Aidan! We are literally in front of you!” she finally said, pulling him away from me and standing between us.

“ So what? She’s my mate, there’s nothing wrong with that,” Aidan rebelled but all it took was one look from his father for him to behave.

“ Is that why you two almost had sex?” He asked coldly.

“ Dad- “

“ Be quiet, just because you two are mated does not mean you can do that – at least not yet.”

“ Why not?”

“ Because she’s got two mates Aidan, TWO! Sleeping with one means she has chosen him and frankly, I don’t think she is ready to choose one yet.” Tia said, she looked at me with a worried expression but I quickly avoided eye contact with her.

“ Kayla, you would choose me right?” he asked but I couldn’t answer. I wanted to but…I couldn’t.

“ Kayla…”

“ I don’t know Aidan, please just stop,” I said, walking past him and running to my room upstairs.

Throughout the rest of the day, I kept thinking about what his father said about me choosing one. I knew it was selfish of me to have thought that when Aidan and Hector came out of the office with smiles on their faces, it meant they were both willing to share me as their mate. What a selfish thought!

I guess April was right about me being an abnormality, I probably was never meant to have two mates and I must choose one because that is how it must be.

Later in the evening, Tia woke me up from my sleep and took me to Becka’s house. “ You have to stay here for a while. You and Aidan must not have sex unless you choose him, okay?” she said when she dropped me off there.

Becka was asleep, only her mom was awake. She showed me to my room and I lay down there for about an hour tossing from side to side on the bed because I wasn’t familiar with that place. Eventually, I closed my eyes and slept off, dreaming of something that calmed me.

The sound of someone’s shrill scream got my eyes wide open as I sat up on the bed and looked around the room. When I saw that I was not in my room and Becka was the one who had let out that scream, I knew that the events of yesterday weren’t a dream. I was still a plain girl with two mates who everyone except a few hates.

“ Why didn’t you tell me you were coming over?!” Becka asked as she shook me violently and kissed me everywhere on my face. Since her breath didn’t smell bad I didn’t complain.

“ Luna Tia brought me here last night, you were already fast asleep by then,” I said with a shy smile as I scratched my neck.

“ I’m so happy! But…why’d she bring you here though. That’s weird, don’t you think?” she asked, staring at me with curious eyes.

“ Umm…Aidan and I aren’t allowed to have sex,” I said, speaking as low as I could.

“ Oh…so they think he can’t find you here?” she asked, finding it hard to believe.

“ I didn’t really get an explanation but I guess so. Your brother and Aidan did have a big disagreement once right?”

“ Big enough to keep Aidan away from you? Nah…I don’t think so.” She said but the suspicious look quickly left her face as she hugged me again and said, “ quick, let’s get ready for school together!”

I smiled and got down from the bed but I almost stumbled because of a bag on the floor. “ One of the betas brought your things this morning. That’s how I knew you were around.” Becka said before pulling me with her to the bathroom I would use.

“ Who’s this?” her brother Nigel asked, he was always so inquisitive and nosy, that was why Aidan disliked him. According to stories and gossip I’ve heard, Nigel rejected his mate and married a human girl, bringing “ shame” to his family. Because of that Becka’s family was mocked a lot. It also didn’t help that Nigel lived most of his life as a human after marrying the human girl – he found a way to lock his werewolf side.

“ she’s my friend AND she’s staying with us for a while. By the way, don’t you have somewhere to be?” Becka said defiantly while I watched as he glared at me and picked up his traveling bag.

“ I didn’t know you had friends. Good thing that my little act of freedom didn’t destroy your chances of making one,” He said before he left.
