My Princess Luna

Chapter Three - Adam

**Adam’s POV**

“You what?!” Amira screams at Calvin as she rips her arm out of his grip.

“I don’t believe I was talking to you, Princess. I was talking to Adam.” he says with that smug smirk on his face.

“Alright Calvin. I’ll accept your challenge and we’ll fight tonight but when I win, you’re gon’ leave for New York tonight and I best not ever see your face again. Ya hear?” I say and he laughs.

“Yeah, I hear you, but you’re not gonna win, Adam. Steele is looking forward to tearing you apart.” he says with a confident smile.

“Your Majesty, is there somewhere we can handle this challenge?” I ask as I turn to King Finley. He looks at Iris and their eyes cloud over in a private link for a few moments.

“Yes, we will do it on the training grounds. I will oversee it. And Adam? Call me Finn. We’re family.” he says with a smile.

“Until I win anyways.” Calvin says with the same smugness he’s had since he challenged me.

“You won’t win.” Amira snarls at him before walking back to my side as Calvin laughs.

“Mom, put a force field or something on the training grounds. Something tells me he’s not trying to play fair and I want to make sure there’s no cheating from his side.” Amira whispers to her mom as we walk to the challenge site.

“Kaiya and I will make sure no magic can be used at all out there. Don’t worry. Willow sensed it too.” she responds quietly.

As we reach the grounds, I take my dress clothes off until I’m standing in my underwear. I catch Amira staring at me with her mouth agape and lust swirling in her eyes. I laugh out loud and pull her to me, her face turning a deep shade of pink that she’s been caught.

“You like what you see, Princess?” I whisper in her ear and I feel her body shiver against me. I place a small kiss right beneath her ear and she gasps at the contact.

“I do. You better come back to me, Adam.” she says with her hands on my chest.

“Always, Princess. I’ll always come back to you.” I say and she nods with tears in her eyes. I tilt her chin up so she’s looking at me and pull her in for a passionate kiss. A throat clears after a few moments and I break the kiss to see the Alpha King standing a few steps away.

“I’m sorry guys but it’s time.” he says apologetically and I nod. I peck Amira’s lips one more time and place a kiss on her forehead before following him into the center of the training arena.

The moon is high in the night sky, casting an eerie glow over the forest. The air is thick with tension as Calvin and I face off. My eyes burning with primal fury and his displaying prideful arrogance. Finn stands in the middle of the training grounds between the two of us.

“This fight will be until death or until one of you concedes.” he says loud enough for the onlookers to hear him.

“There will be no weapons. You may shift but that is the only advantage either of you will have. No magic. No poison. No weapons. Nothing aside from your bodies and your wolves. Use of anything else will result in the immediate end of the fight and concession of the man in violation of the rules. Do you both understand?” he continues. We both nod our heads in agreement. He steps to the side with his mate and mine before calling the start of the fight.

Calvin wastes no time in shifting into his wolf. His massive creature with sleek, midnight-black fur, stands tall and imposing. Its muscles rippling beneath its fur, showcasing its raw strength. Its snarling jaws reveal razor-sharp fangs, glistening with saliva like a rabid wolf ready to tear into its opponent.

Archer takes over and shifts into our wolf form as well. Archer is a good bit larger than Steele. He has a coat of midnight black fur that shimmers under the moonlight. His face dawns a white mask as well as his tail and paws. His blue eyes glow with a fierce determination, reflecting the untamed spirit within. His claws extend, glinting menacingly, as he prepares to defend himself and his mate.

With a thunderous growl, Steele lunges forward, his powerful legs propelling him through the air. Archer meets the attack head-on, his agility allowing him to dodge the initial onslaught. The clash of their bodies echoes through the forest, the impact reverberating with a bone-rattling force. Fangs clash, jaws snapping shut with a deafening crack. Both wolves using brute strength trying to overpower the other. Their snarls fill the night like a symphony of primal rage.

Steele attempts to overpower Archer but Archer uses his large size to his advantage. He lunges forward, jaws wide open, aiming to sink his fangs into Steele’s throat. But the wolf twists its body at the last moment, evading the deadly attack.

With a swift countermove, Steele launches himself at Archer’s flank, his claws slashing through the air. Deep gashes appearing on Archer’s side, causing him to howl in pain. Blood drips from his wounds, staining the training grounds a dark crimson.

Undeterred, Archer retaliates with a powerful swipe of his massive paw leaving deep gashes. The force of the blow sends him sprawling backward, crashing into a nearby tree. The impact shakes the forest, momentarily stunning Steele.

Steele quickly regains his footing, fueled by a surge of adrenaline and pure rage. He lunges forward, his jaws aiming to clamp down on Archer’s leg, but Archer dodges last second and clamps his jaws onto Calvin’s hind leg. Sinking his fangs deep into the flesh causing Steele to howl in agony while thrashing and attempting to shake Archer off.

With a final burst of strength, Steele tears himself out of Archer’s grip and leaps away. He backs away from Archer knowing he is critically wounded and vulnerable. Blood drips from both wolves, mingling with the earth below us. The moon bearing witness to this fierce battle, casting its ethereal light upon the scene like a spotlight of sorts.

Breathing heavily, the two wolves circle each other, their eyes locked in a primal stare. The fight has taken its toll on both of our wolves, but I am not willing to back down. Neither is Archer. We will fight to the death for our mate. With renewed determination, Archer charges towards Calvin and lunges at him through the air. The wolves roll in a furious battle until Archer is standing over Steele with his jaws firmly on his throat waiting to rip his life away. Steele thrashes violently making Archer’s hold tighter until suddenly there is no movement. I take a second to listen for a heartbeat and know that he isn’t dead. Archer releases him and Calvin quickly shifts into his human form.

“I concede. Don’t kill me. You win, Adam. Amira is yours.” he says from the ground. His breathing is ragged and his leg and torso are mangled beyond recognition from the battle. Archer huffs at him in response before giving me back control. I shift back and kneel beside Calvin, flinching from the pain of my own wounds.

“She was always mine. I don’t take lives for no reason but take this as your only warning, Calvin. For her? I’d burn this whole damn world down. Stay away from her. You hear me, boy?” I say as I spit on the ground beside him and walk away to my mate.

“If you could hurry and heal these wounds, I’d really appreciate it.” I say to Archer. “I’m working as fast as I can, Adam.” he huffs in annoyance causing me to laugh.

I reach Amira to find her wide eyed with tears streaming down her face and more threatening to spill from her eyes. Queen Iris and Finn are also wide eyed. I look behind me to see what they’re looking at and see nothing.

“Y’all alright?” I ask them as Cyrus tosses me a pair of shorts to cover myself.

“I… Well… Um, yes we are. Good job out there. Could you all follow me to my special training facility, please?” Queen Iris says as she turns on her heels indicating for us to follow.

I look to my men in confusion before grabbing Amira’s hand and interlocking our fingers. She leans her head against my shoulder and rubs my arm as we walk.

“I’m so glad you’re okay. I hate seeing you like this.” she says through her shaky breaths and tears. I kiss the top of her head and grab her other hand.

“I told you I would always come back to you, my Princess.” I say and I feel her smile against me. We follow the Queen into a large building and she locks the doors behind us.

“Your majesty? What has you so worked up?” I ask. “Iris. Call me Iris. You’re my son in law now.” she replies and I nod my head in agreement.

“There’s something you need to see.” she continues before looking at Amira. My mate nods and releases her hold on my arm.

“I’m going to shift but I don’t wanna ruin my dress.” she says to the group and all of us immediately turn around.

“You don’t wanna see me, Adam?” I hear her say quietly and I turn to look at her.

“Darlin’ of course I wanna see but my mama raised me to be respectful. I’d never just expect to see it because you’re mine.” I say and she looks down at her feet.

“If you want me to watch, honey, that’s all you gotta say. I’ll do whatever you want me to.” I continue and she nods.

“I need words, Princess.” I say and she looks up at me with pink cheeks.

“I want you to watch.” she whispers and I nod gesturing for her to continue.

“Um. Can you help me unzip?” she asks and I walk towards her as she turns her back to me.

My fingertips graze her skin as I pull the zipper down to her lower back. She shivers beneath my touch but quickly recovers when I step back to let her get undressed. She lets the dress go and it falls to the ground leaving her in nothing but her bright red lace underwear. She turns to face me with her arms over her chest to hide herself while she struggles to take her necklace off.

“May I?” I ask her and she nods. I step in front of her and reach behind her neck to unclasp her necklace before looking down into her gorgeous green eyes.

“You don’t ever have to hide yourself from me. There’s nothin’ in the world more beautiful than you.” I whisper.

“I’m sure you’ve had prettier.” she whispers back looking down at the ground.

Using my finger, I lift her chin up to look me in the eyes and see those emerald lakes full of insecurity where they once held so much confidence.

“I’ve never had prettier ‘cause I’ve never had anyone at all. I saved myself for you, Princess, and you’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.” I tell her and her eyes fill with tears as she smiles.

She moves her arms revealing her breasts to me and I can’t help but my bite my lip to stifle the groan. She takes her earrings out and places them in my hand before she starts to pull down her underwear. The realization she’s going to be completely naked overwhelms me and I know I won’t be able to control the primal urge to mate her after this torturous strip tease so I stop her.

“I better walk over there and turn around so you can shift or else I might take you right here.” I whisper and she giggles.

I step back to my position and turn around trying to get my rock hard member to calm down but the image of her standing with her chest exposed to me is forever ingrained in my brain. Moments later I feel a wet snout nudge me and turn to see my mate’s wolf.

“Oh Goddess…” I say under my breath. Amira’s wolf is completely white except for her tail, paws, and the mask of her face.

“Ya’ll truly were made for us.” I say as I run my hands through her fur. Cyrus and Blake turn around and gasp.

“She… You… Wow.” Blake says causing everyone to laugh.

“I want to see mate.” Archer says.

“I’ll shift so you can just as soon as the wounds are healed, bud, I promise.” I tell him.

“Adam, you see her wolf is the literal opposite of yours right? You see how your wolves complete each other?” Iris says and I nod, unable to take my eyes off of the beautiful creature in front of me.

“That’s because she has a prophecy to fulfill too…” she continues and I turn to look at her.

“I don’t know what it is. All I can tell you is the Moon Goddess came to us on their first birthday and told me of the powers she would have. She said she would be a guardian of the supernatural like me.” Iris says honestly and I hear Amira’s wolf whine behind me.

“So she’s probably gonna be stronger than me? Is that what I’m hearin’?” I ask and Iris nods.

“But even a strong wolf is submissive to their mate when loved right.” she continues as if she’s trying to convince me of something.

“Well I’m alright with that. I don’t need to be stronger than my Luna to be a good Alpha.” I say with a shrug before turning back to petting Amira’s wolf.

“Why don’t you shift back so we can go back to one of our rooms and get that neck marked.” I say to her and she nods her head before licking my face.

“Hand me something to cover her, please. She’s shifting back and then I’m taking my mate to bed.” I say and Finn tosses me a blanket from a shelf on the wall.

“So… you still accept her? It doesn’t bother you that her life will not be easy because of the prophecy in store for her?” Iris says worriedly and I laugh.

“I think I can handle it. I was challenged for her within an hour of finding her and won the challenge. I’d burn the whole world down for my Princess.” I say to her and she smiles.

“The Goddess chose right for her.” she says looking to Finn and he nods.

“A cool bonus is you’re likely going to be able to share her powers. At least I can with Iris and seeing your wolves, I feel like there’s more in store for you as well” Finn says and I go wide eyed.

“Share her powers? That’d be a wild ride for sure.” I say laughing. Amira nudges me with her snout again a little more impatiently and Iris laughs.

“Seems like Amira wants you to hurry up so she can take control from Nova.” Iris says as the wolf continues nudging me.

“Nova. That’s a beautiful name. Archer is gonna love you, honey.” I say as I turn to face her.

I hold the blanket up as a curtain so she can shift back and let out an involuntary groan when I see her completely nude body before me. I wrap the blanket around her and turn her to kiss me before picking her up and tossing her over my shoulder.

“If y’all will excuse me. I gotta get my mate to bed before I see her naked one more time.” I say and run out of the building towards the castle.

Amira is laughing loudly over my shoulder as I make my way back and the sound is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. I step into my guest room and lock the door behind me before tossing her on the bed. The blanket falls from around her as she lands putting her entire body on display for me. She props herself up on her elbows and trails her eyes down to my shorts.

“Are you gonna get rid of those shorts or do you need help?” she says biting her lip.

“Ya know, Princess, I think I need your help.” I say looking at her and she stands from the bed.

She walks to me and runs her hands over my chest and abs before circling me. Her fingernails trailing ever so lightly across my skin as she touches my back. Goosebumps erupt all over my body at the contact and I involuntarily shiver as I let out a ragged breath. My self control is slowly slipping away and she knows it.

“My, my, Alpha. You seem so tense. Do you need my help to relax too?” she says seductively as she comes to stand in front of me.

“What’d you have in mind?” I ask and she bites her lip before circling me again. The sensation of her fingers against my skin send sparks and chills through my body simultaneously.

“Lay down on the bed.” she says and I obey her command.

I lay on my back and she shakes her head no using her finger to tell me to flip over. I lift an eyebrow at the request and she gives me the signature “I’m waiting” look so I roll over and rest my head on my hands. She suddenly climbs on the bed and straddles me as she sits on my backside.

“Your wounds are almost healed, my Alpha, but until they are I’m going to rub all this stress out of your muscles.” she says as I feel warm oil drip onto my back before she begins massaging me from my neck to my tailbone.

“The only stress I got right now is my mate sittin’ on me naked and I can’t see her.” I say through my breaths.

“Well turn over then.” she says and I flip quickly so that she’s sitting directly on my hardened member.

She drips more oil onto my chest and begins rubbing all over my chest and abs making me groan in pleasure as she rocks back and forth against me. I let her go on for quite a while before Archer speaks.

“You’re healed. Take our mate right now.” he says in a husky growl and I smirk.

“Something funny?” she asks and I laugh. I flip us over so I’m on top of her and she gasps as I press my body against her.

“I’m all healed up now. You’re mine.” I say before capturing her lips in a hungry kiss.
