Chapter 33

LUNA POV

I sat beside Mrs. Fox on the sofa while Hector was on the opposite chair. This is the first time I saw Mrs. Fox wearing a serious face. I knew her as a jolly woman who always wears a smile every time we see each other at the library.

"What is it, Mrs. Fox?" I asked in confusion.

She held my hand as he turned to Hector who was seriously looking at us.

"Before I start, may I know your name," Mrs. Fox asked Hector.

"My name is Hector," he replied.

"Alright Hector, I know you are a werewolf," Mrs. Fox revealed.

I and Hector shared a look. We are both surprised by what Mrs. Fox said.

"Ahm, Mrs. Fox, how come?" I was lost for words.

"Since I was a child, my parents trained me how to determine a werewolf. Even if they are in a human form," she said.

I was so stunned. Mrs. Fox the librarian can determine the werewolf. I can't believe it.

"You are trained? Why?" I asked her.

"Luna, I am your level 2 guardian," she told me.

I was so shocked right now. I kept on turning to Mrs. Fox and then to Hector. I don't know what is happening.

"What do you mean? I... I don't understand," I said. I am trying to compose myself.

"When your parents died in an accident, Peter and Anne, I was left to be your level 2 guardian. Every day, I need to assured that you are safe. I know how special your blood is, Luna." She calmly said.

"So you know that werewolves are after my blood?" I felt my blood run cold.

I can't stand the revelation that was going on.

"Yes, Luna. I know how powerful your blood is. Because you are the last person alive in your bloodline," she said as she squeezed my hand.

"Alright, bloodline. You mean a family bloodline?" Hector interrupted.

"Yes, Hector. For centuries, werewolves were after the life of your family. But not everyone in your family has the Sangius blood." Mrs. Fox continued.

"Sangius blood? Is that what we call this blood I have?" I asked her.

"Yes, Luna. In your family except for your ancestors, it was you and your mother who has the blood," she added.

"You mean, my Mom Anne also has the Sangius blood?" I remember my mother. I remember how she cared for me and how she reminded me to always take good care of my blood. But I never knew what she means by that.

"No, Luna. Anne and Peter were not your real parents," she disclosed.

My whole world stopped as I felt a burning pain in my chest. My visions started to blur as the tears formed in my eyes.

I never expected this time would come, someone would tell me that my mom and dad were not my real parents.

"Wait, Mrs. Fox, are you sure? That is impossible," I told her.

"Luna, they took the responsibility to be your parents. And they are your level 1 guardian. They loved you as their own," she told me.

I don't want to believe her, I don't want to listen to her.

"Stop, Mrs. Fox. I don't want to hear more," I felt the tears in my cheeks.

"Luna, you must listen to me. This is the time for you to know everything. They are not your real parents." she continued.

"Then who are my parents?" I sobbed.

"Anastasia was your real mother. Anne and Peter are her servants. They were there when your mother died. They saved you and brought you here in Ashland." Mrs. Fox continued.

Anastasia, I remember that name. She was my mother's best friend. My mother told me about her. She lives in Portland.

"Why did she die?" I can't stop the tears from falling from my eyes.

"Werewolves attacked your home in Portland. They killed your mother. The alpha on the Madfur Claws Pack, Mateo, was the one who attacked your house. They killed your mother and drank her blood. Mateo became powerful during that time, but his strength did not last," she explained.

I remember Lucas and his pack, and how evil they are.

"Mateo, he was the grandfather of the present alpha, Lucas. I heard, he was the most powerful werewolf alpha of his time. So he got your mother's blood, that's why," Hector added.

"That is why Lucas was trying to claim me as his mate. Because he also wanted my blood, to give him supply every day so he will be powerful. He is a demon," I felt disgusted as I remember him.

"Don't worry Luna. I will assure you, he can never lay a hand on you again. I will rip his fuckin' throat," Hector angrily said.

"Right now, what is important is that you are safe Luna. I know Hector will protect you. Your blood is very powerful. It's the source of strength and power," she told me.

I swallowed hard, I never thought this was how powerful my blood was.

"We are hiding, for now, I think my home here in Ashland is the safest place for now," I said.

"Luna, don't trust anyone except Hector and me. We don't know who the real enemy is," she reminds me.

"Yes, Mrs. Fox. I will." I told her as I gave her a hug.

"I need to go, Luna, you need to keep in touch with me, alright. I am just near you all the time. I will still fulfill my mission to look into you," she said as she gave me her sweetest smile.

She touched my face as she always does. Her touch was so comforting.

"You are as beautiful as your mother Anastasia, Luna," she gently caressed my face.

It was just sad that I never had the opportunity to meet my real mother. I'm sure she was an amazing woman like my mom Anne.

Mrs. Fox waved goodbye to us. She was about to open the door when I felt the urge to ask her something. It just pop- up in my mind.

"Mrs. Fox, wait ahm, I need to ask you one more question before you leave," I said.

"What was that dear?" she asked.

"About my father. You told me my mother was dead. How about my father?" a glimpse of hope rose within me.

"Your father Luna, she was not there when the werewolves attacked your home. After the death of Anastasia, we never saw him. I don't have any idea if he is still alive. But I believe he is. Hopefully, he is still alive," she replied.

I am hoping that my father is still alive.

"Thank you, Mrs. Fox. Everything you said was a great help to me," I said to her before she left.

I was left in the living room with Hector standing by my side.

I looked up at him, his eyes sparkled like crystals. I am loving to see his handsome face.

"We are closer to learning more about your family Luna. Don't worry, I will be here to protect you," he told me.

He leaned closer to give me a kiss. I am so lucky to have a mate by my side.

I hugged him. I want to feel his body next to me.

We are enjoying the moment when suddenly we heard a loud howl outside the house.

We both let go of each other and turned to look outside.

"What was that Hector?" I felt my heart beat faster. There is something wrong. Don't tell me, they found us.

"I can smell the rogues. They found us, Luna," he said.
