Chapter 52: The Magic Tower (3)

(From Blue's Perspective)

"I understand. But it's important. Isn't it you who said sometimes what's needed to be done might not be the easiest path, yet we have to go down that path?"

"I shouldn't have said that," he muttered. 

I ignored him. "As I said, I'm going to give blood as well."

"I hate it," he said. "It's really too much. Can't we decrease the amount of blood she has to give?"

"No," Luc answered immediately. It must be very important for me to give a bag of blood. It was not like I was afraid of it. But Demetrius was overreacting. "Her blood is a must. Don't overreact. It's just a small amount of blood."

"You annoy me," Dem grumbled. "What else do we need?" 

"A moonstone," Luc said. 

"A moonstone?" Dem and I asked at the same time. 

'Light diffraction within a microstructure consisting of regular exsolution layers of distinct alkali feldspars causes a visual appearance called sheen or schiller, which gives the stone its name. For millennia, moonstone has been utilized in jewelry, notably by ancient civilizations. Moonstone was prized by the Romans because they believed it was formed from the Moon's solidified rays. It was connected with their lunar deities by both the Romans and the Greeks. Moonstone became famous in recent history during the Art Nouveau period when French jeweler René Lalique and others made a huge amount of jewelry utilizing this stone. Moonstones are frequently represented as either increasing or diminishing supernatural creatures' abilities in fiction about supernatural vampires or werewolves.'

I had read about moonstones being used to enhance or suppress the abilities of supernatural artifacts, but I never could think that I would witness something like this in real life. Suddenly my hands started to feel colder just by thinking about it. 

But thankfully, it was a moonstone. Moonstones were pretty common and they were not too costly as well. Then it would not be a problem to get it. Or so I thought...

"Now where will we get a moonstone?" Dem asked. 

"Eh?" I was too shocked to say anything else. What was he talking about? Was he bring serious? "Aren't moonstones pretty common? They are not even costly." 

"That's in your world, my wife. But here, moonstone is very rare and there are limited numbers of it. Once every full moon, one is left in each kingdom. It can be anywhere and whoever finds it the first, it became theirs. We had a vast collection, but that bastard Ford destroyed ours. We should have been more careful," Dem explained. 

"Then you can get as many as you want from my world," I said. If he could just go to my world, he could have endless of them. 

"It's not easy. I can only go there once a year. I mean, a werewolf can go there once a year. And only some members of our family know about the pathways and how to enter the other world. And also, only an Alpha can do this. As I've already gone there once this year, I can't do it again."

"That's... Now, what then?" I asked. It was awful. Perhaps King Ford had destroyed them when Demetrius had gone to bring me here. So he did not find out about it till he came back. Such disgusting timing!

"The night after tomorrow is the full moon. We have to find the moonstone before anyone else," Dem said. "It won't be a problem..."

"It will be," Luc said calmly. 

"Why? I will just go out and grab that one. You know, Alphas can sense a moonstone better than any other werewolves. And no one can run faster than me," Dem said. It again felt like he was showing off like a kid. It was kind of cute. 

"Did you forget," Luc said, "that you have a mate?" 

"Oh..."

The response from Dem was so little that I almost did not hear him. Now that Luc said it, I understood what he meant. I had forgotten about it as well. 

Mated werewolves needed to make love with their mate on a full moon night and they also would become beastly on every full moon night. Demetrius was dangerous enough and that was why I could not even guess what he would be like on the full moon. Would he tear me apart or something? 

I was flushed red. I did not know how to look at Luc anymore. They talked about this type of stuff as if there was nothing to be ashamed of. Yes, it was a natural thing for couples to do. But that did not mean it was not shameful to talk about.

"... Then the morning after the full moon, I will go find it," Dem said. He surely had noticed how embarrassed I was. He always liked to tease me and see me shy. But by the look on his face, it seemed he did not like it when others were present. 

I had seen that look before too when his sister Evelyn was teasing me about my wedding night. I was too embarrassed to say something as other maids were asking odd questions about how I felt, if the thing was big and stuff like that. But suddenly, Demetrius barged in and scolded his sister for asking something like that. It was not Evelyn's fault fully as she only asked how I was feeling. The maids asked all the other questions. But still, he was mad at her for bringing it up and took me from there. 

I had to admit that I was saved. There was no way I could answer those questions though there was one thing I was kind of happy about that I was the only one who he had been with. It felt good to know that he shared his body only with me and he never even thought about doing so with others. 

"Good then. Bring it as soon as possible," Luc said. "And I only heard that you've made a human your mate. But I did not expect this. Now I'm truly worried."

"I'm worried about it too," Dem said. 

"What... What are you talking about?" I asked. 

"Oh, please have a seat, Blue. I will grab some cookies...," Luc smiled suddenly at me. 

"No need. If she eats your cookies, she will have a stomachache for sure," Dem said. 

"You're being rude," I nudged him. 

"What rude? He perhaps had those cookies stored for over two years," Dem said. 

"They are not rotten," Luc protested. 

"No, thank you, Luc. I'll just sit down," I said as calmly as I could. 

I sat down on the couch and Dem sat beside me. "Can you..."

"No, I can't," Luc stopped Dem abruptly. "There is no way to calm a werewolf down on a full moon. It's just impossible. No matter how much you threaten me or anyone else, there is no way to do this."

"It's dangerous," Dem muttered.

"It indeed is. When you told me you chose a human, I thought you were joking. When you even pretended to have mistresses yet never took any women, I thought there was something wrong with your sexuality."

"..."

"Then again, you kept saying the same thing again and again for seven years that you have chosen your bride. Even when you went to bring her here, I thought she was someone stronger. I mean, look at her. She is so tiny. Being short is one thing, but she is slender as well. How can you think that she will be okay on a full moon? Moreover, she is a human."

"You think I didn't think about it? I know it's going to be hard. That's why I was planning on going somewhere else on a full moon night. Perhaps in the forest so I would not harm her."

'You guys, I'm here as well.'

"Have you lost your mind? It will hurt like hell," Luc said. 

"Heh? It's not like I can't handle it. You talk as if you've experienced it. You haven't even found your mate yet," Dem laughed. 

"... You can't handle it. It's really too much. No matter what you do, there is no other way," Luc said. "Really? You don't know anything about this. If I haven't seen your wolf form myself, I might have doubted if you're truly a werewolf."

"You better talk as much as necessary," Dem grumbled. 

"On a full moon, a werewolf subconsciously finds their mate. Here as there are werewolves only, the male and the female werewolves find themselves. But as your wife is a human, even if she hides, you will find her eventually. If it takes more than five minutes, I'll be surprised. First of all, you can trace her scent. Then as you're an Alpha, your mate bond is stronger than normal werewolves. You know what I mean?" Luc said. "There is no way to escape. You have to do it. Well, all you can do is pray. I guess that would be wrong too as you're going to do something sinful..."

"Shut up!" Dem yelled.
