True Luna novel (Emma and Logan) novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64 Duty

Logan POV

My heart was pounding in my chest.

What I said to her in this conversation would determine if she accepted or rejected me.

I couldn’t even think about the rejection. That couldn’t happen. I couldn’t lose her. I wouldn’t lose her.

She was mine. She belonged to me.

Just picturing her with another man…

The anger rose, and I was ready to break down the fucking house.

No. Fuck no. How could I let another man touch her? How could I let another man taste her? How could I let another man hear what I just heard upstairs? Her orgasms were mine. Her moans

were mine.

SHE. WAS. MINE.

She looked up at me, and I could tell that she was ready to ask her first question.

She was interrupted by Andrew.

The front door opened, and we heard footsteps approaching. We looked at the entrance to the kitchen.

“Hey.” Andrew said as soon as he walked in.

He hugged Emma and kissed the top of her head.

“I missed you, Em.” Andrew mumbled.

“It’s been two hours.” Emma chuckled, making my heart swell in my chest.

I adored the sound of her laugh.

“It’s been more than two hours.” Andrew

said as he walked to the cupboard. “What were you guys doing?”

He took the mug and poured himself some coffee.

“We were just about to talk.” I said, giving him a meaningful look.

“Oh.” Andrew said, looking from me to Emma. “I will give you some privacy then.”

Andrew walked back to Emma and kissed her temple.

“I will be in my room if you need me.” he said as he walked out of the kitchen, sipping his coffee.

I walked around the kitchen island and

took Emma’s hand in mine.

“Where are we going?” she asked me.

“Living room.” I said.

I sat down on the couch and pulled her next to me. I wanted to touch her and feel her while we talked, but she pulled back.

“I am sorry.” she said immediately. “You will distract me if you are too close.”

I wanted to whine and sob like a damn kid, but I pushed that need down and nodded.

“Okay baby.” I smiled.

She took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a second.

“Why did you reject me, Logan?” she

asked quietly. “You said I was weak, but you didn’t even give me a chance to prove to you that I am not.”

I clenched my fists and took a deep breath.

“I was scared.” I said quietly. “We were constantly getting attacked by rogues. My father left me this pack, and it is my duty to protect it. I was scared that they would take you away from me. I was convinced that having a physically stronger mate would mean that they wouldn’t be able to hurt her and get to me and my pack through her.”

She studied my face for a second. “I was never physically weak. I was always the best at training. I am small, but I am fast. Jake has been training me as well. We would meet three times a week after the training, and he would make sure I knew how to protect

myself. He wanted me to be safe, and he taught me how to fight.”

I was speechless.

Jacob had been teaching her how to fight?

She could fight?

Another fucking man made sure that my mate was safe. Another man made sure that she knew how to protect herself. What did I do? I rejected her
