The Luna's Pure Heart
The Luna’s Pure Heart – Chapter 55

(Eleanor pov)

I awoke the next morning wrapped around Damion in every way possible. I haven’t woken up like this before. Usually, we are just cuddled up with our legs tangled together with him holding me tightly. But this morning I was clinging to him like a damn koala bear. My legs were wrapped around his waist and my head was buried in his neck, inhaling his masculine scent. My arms were looped behind his back and he was holding me just as tightly.

Considering everything that happened last night..surprisingly that was one of the best nights of sleep I had ever had in my life. Damion was different somehow, a good different. It was as if he were starting to accept himself and wow was he even stronger, I’m not sure how that was even possible. I was intimidated at first, to be honest, his surge of energy coursing through me and making me melt beneath his gaze..I’m getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it now. Then he called me bunny and my knees went weak, Kari was howling uncontrollably, making it even harder to talk and then I had the best o****m yet..well every time has been equally amazing but something about last night made it beyond incredible. Seeing how strong and protective my mate was, how he killed that rogue and came straight over to me. His concern was so evident in his touch and how he held me gently..I have never had that before, I have never felt so safe and secure in my life..not since my parents were around. It was indescribable, to have someone care for me so deeply, to protect me, and be so strong…I fell more in love with him right at that moment, I didn’t even think it would be possible to have all of these strong feelings so soon.

I pressed myself deeper into him, my lips grazing against his mark as I couldn’t help but breathe deeply and let out a soft m**n.

“Darling, if you keep that up I won’t be able to leave this bed for the rest of the day.” He mumbled, his deep seductive voice vibrating his chest and causing my center to tighten.

“Is that such a bad thing?” I teased, grinning against his flesh, making him growl. Suddenly I felt his hard tip pressing against my slick center, causing my body to tremble.

“It does mess with my plans a little Bunny.” He whispered, my new nickname making me whimper as he gathered up my hair, pulling my head back gently.

“And what plans would those be?” I gasped, his lips grazing my own as he began entering my soaking wet core.

“Taking back this realm and showing them who their king truly is.” He growled, sliding fully into me now as I m****d wildly. His mouth pressed to mine roughly, as I began rocking my h**s, moving up and down his long hard shaft.

“D-Damion.” I stuttered, the pleasure already building as my body began to pulse with each thrust.

“Bunny, who is your King?” He gritted through clenched teeth, letting my head fall as he let go of my hair, his hands now cupping my a*s as he helped guide me up and down his length.

“You..you are my King.” I g*****d out, lapping at his mark as I felt him tensing, knowing he was just as close as I was.

“And what are you Bunny, scream it for me..tell me who you are, let everyone in this castle know who you are.” He commanded, his jaw clenching, trying to hold on as long as possible.

“I am your Queen.” I screamed, the words tumbling from my mouth as Damion yelled out, our release consuming us as our bodies joined as one. My pleasure was lost within his own while I threw my head back, crying out against his lips as he crashed into me. His c**k buried inside of me to the hilt as I felt his hot seed filling me while he jerked erratically.

“I love you, my Queen.” He m****d, relishing my pleasure just as much as his own.

“I love you, my King.” I managed to choke out as my body trembled and I collapsed onto him. His palms rubbed up and down my back as he placed lazy open mouth k****s against my shoulder, nipping at my skin playfully.

“You are my mine Eleanor Winters.” His words were gentle and sweet, causing warmth to course through me as I glanced up into his breathtakingly blue eyes.

I reached my hand up, cupping his cheek with my palm as I kissed his bare chest tenderly.

“Only yours.” I confirmed, smiling lazily as he chuckled and pushed a strand of hair from my face. We lay there, trying to recover from the earth-shattering pleasure as something began to nag inside of me.

“I want to come with you to breakfast Damion.” I whispered, knowing he was planning something big today..I needed to be there for him, something inside of me was telling me not to leave his side.

‘Stay with mate.’

Kari whispered, confirming my gut feeling as I held my breath waiting for Damion to answer.

“Darling, I don’t know if that’s a good idea..” He tensed, his eyes flashing gold as I sat up and straddled his lap.

“Please, I want to be by your side, if you feel it’s too dangerous then Pierce can take me back to our floor right away…please baby.” I was pleading, begging him as my eyes grew bigger and my bottom l*p puffed out. I kid you not, I didn’t even mean to do it on purpose, that’s how desperate I was..I never thought I was the nagging begging type.

He let out a long sigh, his tension melting as the corner of his mouth twitched, trying to fight the smile that wanted to break through.

“Okay Bunny, but if I sense anything is off or it gets too heated you have to promise to do what I say with no questions asked.” He raised an eyebrow and looked at me with a serious expression.

“I pinky swear.” I smiled brightly, bringing up my pinky as he looked down at it blinking in confusion.

“You pinky what?” His gaze darted from me to my extended pinky.

“You know..when it’s an unbreakable promise and you have to keep your word no matter what. My mom used to do this with me as a kid.” I smiled brightly and reached down, gently grabbing his large hand and folding it into a fist then pulled his pinky out straight.

I quickly wrapped my pinky around his and squeezed, then pulled it up to my mouth.

“You seal it with a k**s if you truly mean it.” I whispered, kissing the side of my fist while trying to hold in the giggle that wanted to explode as soon as Damion did the same with wide eyes.

“I have never heard of that in my life.” He admitted flatly and I let go of his hand, flinging my arms around his neck as I pushed him back, kissing him softly.

“I guess there are a few things I can teach you after all.” I smiled against his warm skin, making him growl as he rolled us over, pinning me to the bed.

“Oh, you have taught me many many things Bunny, I especially like the one where I learned how to make you scream my name when I hit that special spot you like.” His husky voice tickled my jaw as he began to pepper k****s leisurely down to my throat.

“You will have to remind me of that one, I seem to have forgotten.” I teased, gripping his shoulders as he chuckled deeply.

“Oh, have you now?” He glanced up towards me and I nodded my head eagerly while biting my l*p.

“Mhm.” I hummed, feeling him nudging at my entrance once more when his eyes suddenly clouded over and he let out a g***n.

I frowned knowing it must have been time to get ready to go.

“Bunny, have I taught you how to multi-task yet?” His face pulled into a huge smirk as I shook my head no while fluttering my eyelashes.

“To the showers we go..” he ordered, lifting me up swiftly as he slid me down on his c**k, making good use of our time and quickly taught me how to multitask..very well if I must say so myself.

After our very educational shower, I stood in front of the mirror in my black lace bra and panties as I brushed out my long silver hair. It was hard to not keep glancing behind me in the mirror as Damion pulled out what looked like a dress for me and a suit for him. I couldn’t help but smile to myself as his eyes continued to shift towards me, wandering my body with l**t-filled eyes.

“Here Darling, put this on.” He whispered against my ear, causing a shudder to run through me.

He handed me a beautiful maroon dress with a pencil skirt that went to my knees, it had long sleeves and a high neck with a keyhole cutout. Damion zipped me up in the back slowly, the fabric hugging my curves perfectly as I let my hair cascade down my shoulders.

I heard Damion’s breathing grow heavier by the second as I met his gaze in the mirror. His hands found my h**s as he pulled my back flush against his chest and then he circled his arms around my waist, hugging me.

“f**k Darling, you look ravishing.” He breathed, placing a soft k**s on my mark as I closed my eyes, letting those sparks settle into my skin.

“My Queen.” Damion growled possessively as I turned in his arms, kissing his lips gently.

“My king.” I responded sweetly as I pulled away and looked my handsome mate up and down slowly.

He wore a black dress shirt with maroon pants and a matching suit jacket..he looks handsome as hell. I couldn’t control the possessive growl that bubbled up from escaping my lips as I pulled him close to me by his suit jacket.

“Mine.” I claimed, kissing him ferociously as his hands wandered my back greedily.

“Maybe we can postpone this until tomorrow.” He grumbled, his chest rising and falling rapidly as I shook my head no.

“We need to do this today..but once it’s done, you can do whatever your heart desires with me.” I said sweetly, my words full of seductive as he g*****d in frustration.

“Fine..but I must warn you now..if one person stares at you longer than they should..I can’t be held responsible for what I might do to them.” He looked at me sideways as I gasped.

“But you picked the dress out for me..” I frowned, looking down as he gripped my h**s tighter once again.

“I thought it would be more modest..but it hugs you in all the right places and I am regretting it more by the second.” He blurted, running his fingers through his long golden hair, his blue eyes looking panicked as I laughed.

“Baby, with you by my side I have a feeling no one will even glance towards me once.” I reassured him, knowing the Alpha King has a much stronger presence than he realizes.

I reached down for his hands, intertwining our fingers as I looked into his eyes.

“Come on, let’s show this uncle of yours who the Alpha King really is.” My words were full of confidence and encouragement.

I had a feeling today would change Damion’s life in the best way possible, no more living in other’s shadows..it was time for my King to claim his throne.

We took the elevator down and Damion pulled me next to him, his arm wrapping around my waist tightly as he held me as close as possible to his side. I looked up at this incredibly handsome man..how did I get so lucky again?

Every step we took made his grip tighter and tighter, my h*p was practically throbbing by the time we reached the dining area. I have never been here to eat with everyone else, which seems surprising considering I have lived in the castle for almost two months now..counting my dungeon stint, which I learned Damion doesn’t like to talk about.

Pierce and my two other usual guards were close behind us as I quickly spotted Lance and Lucas sitting towards the middle of the long wooden table. This thing could seat at least twenty people, it was a dark stained wood with matching chairs. The room was decorated in gray and everything looked spotless, like the rest of this damn castle. How do they keep it so clean?!

Lance raised his eyebrow at me, his eyes wandering up and down my body with the biggest smirk pulling on his face. Lucas on the other hand kept his gaze on my mate, clearly knowing not to overstep, which Lance seems to do enough for the both of them.

“Good morning My King and Queen.” Lucas said with a serious tone, but I saw the hint of a smile as soon as he met my gaze.

“Good morning, I hope you all slept well despite last night’s events.” I couldn’t help but feel excited to be here, this was my first time eating with everyone. I know today will have a lot of difficult conversations once the others come but the fact that I get to be here with my mate to support him means everything to me.

“Slept like a baby, until I heard some type of screaming..something about being a Queen..I’m not too sure.” Lance stated, his eyes locking onto mine as I almost choked from the deep gasp I inhaled.

He heard that?! I thought the room was soundproof or something! Aren’t most higher-ranked rooms?! Oh, my goddess..how embarrassing! Damion leaned into me, his mood improving instantly as my face turned beet red.

‘I knew you would do a damn good job Bunny.’

He linked and I elbowed him right in the ribs, causing him to flinch as I was now feeling completely mortified..Why do I get the feeling Damion is actually proud of this?

‘That’s so embarrassing Damion!!’

I hissed in the link, looking anywhere but at the Beta’s who I could hear were trying to stifle their laughter.

‘I might have kept a window open so everyone could hear just who you belong to.’

He admitted through the link and I couldn’t believe it..that punk!

Damion walked me towards the right side of the table, pulling out a chair as I plopped into it not so lady like as he took the head of the table next to me.

‘Don’t be shy Bunny, I needed to make a point..but from now on I’m the only one who gets to hear your m***s.’

He tried making up for it as he rested his hand on my lap, causing my eyes to narrow at him as I let out a puff of air.

‘Yeah, if there will be anymore moaning.’

I knew that would get a rise out of him, his eyes widened instantly and panic filled those baby blues I loved so much.

Before he could respond, the whole room was filled with a thick tension. They were here..Elder Paul, a few other older-looking men, and their warriors walked in. Then right behind them was Stacy in the most revealing dress I have ever seen, even worse than the one Lance made me wear. She walked in with her mother, the former Queen, right by her side who I honestly have only seen like three times before.

Damion gripped my hand as Jake followed directly behind them, his eyes already clouding over, speaking with Damion, Lance, and Lucas before anyone else could notice.

Why did it suddenly feel like I was now sitting on the sidelines, watching the start of a brewing war?

‘Whatever you do, do not give in to his games..I would prefer it if you would not speak to him at all but I know that’s hard for you to be rude, so please just keep it casual.’

Damion linked to me gently, making me feel somewhat relieved that he doesn’t expect me to just sit here and say nothing..my mate knew me so well..but I have a feeling by the end of this, I won’t even want to speak to this man..

“My future Queen, well don’t you look stunning this morning.” Elder Paul smirked widely at me, his eyes burning into mine as I smiled polity back..why did this feel so wrong? Just his eyes alone were making my skin crawl. I know Damion wants this all to be a surprise though, that way he didn’t expect anything this morning so I can’t quite act like I know he is the man who sent that Rogue last night.

That’s when I realized Damion was now gripping his armchair, a rumbling growl rose up from his chest, shaking the table as his eyes flashed gold..the hair on the back of my neck rose just from the pure electricity rolling off of my mate and I knew this breakfast was going to end before it has even started.
