"Indie," Greyson said lowly. "You may not want to be Luna of this pack but you are and nothing you can do can change that. Stop fighting it."
"I'll fight it as long as I can," she shrugged and turned around. The world whizzed past her as she did and she gasped, stumbling slightly.
"Werewolf speed," Greyson said, catching Indianna and steadying her. "You're going to have to learn to control it."
"I can't control it when I don't realise I'm doing it," Indianna frowned.
"After the Change it will become easier to tell when you are going normal speed and when you are walking at a human pace," Greyson said. "Now let's go."
"Where?"
"Inside," Greyson said and linked his fingers with Indianna's. He pulled her towards the house and wrapped his arm around her as they entered. "Hey, Mac!" Greyson called, stopping a guy with blonde hair as he walked past.
"What's up, Grey?" Mac asked. He was slightly older than Greyson, possibly around 22 years old and he seemed completely at ease around Greyson.
"You seen my sister?" Greyson asked.
"I'm currently trying to find her," Mac said.
"And a shit job you are doing."
Mac turned round as Kirstie appeared and she grinned, kissing Mac on the cheek. "Polite as ever," Mac muttered.
"Indianna, your room is finished," Kirstie said. "If you don't like it or want something changed just let me know."
Indianna nodded. "Thanks."
"Indie, Mac is Kirstie's mate. Mac meet Indianna, my mate," Greyson said.
"Pleasure to meet you, Luna," Mac smiled and Indianna nodded shyly.
"You too," she said quickly, not liking being called Luna.
"I'm relieved that Greyson finally has someone to calm his bloody anger issues," Mac smirked.
"I do not have anger issues," Greyson snapped and Kirstie chuckled.
"Let's go, Mac," she said. "Hope you like the room, Indianna!" The two of them walked off and Greyson looked down at Indianna.
"You're so shy around new people," he muttered and shook his head.
"I can't help it," Indianna said defensively and pulled away from Greyson. She headed for the stairs and Greyson immediately caught up to her.
"You just have to talk to more people."
"I don't want to."
"You're the Luna, you're going to have too."
"I don't want to."
"I don't care," Greyson shrugged and Indianna narrowed her eyes at him. "Don't look at me like that. You may not like talking to new people but in the long run it will benefit you being more confident."
Indianna sighed and they reached Indianna's new room. "I'm shy, I can deal with it, you need to learn to," Indianna shrugged and opened the door. She stepped inside and looked around. The room was simple with light wooden floors and pale blue walls with a white floral pattern. There was a four poster bed pushed up against the wall, a desk, a dresser and wardrobe and a door that Greyson said led to a bathroom. "It's nice," Indianna said, going to sit down on the bed.
"Mine's nicer," Greyson shrugged, kicking the door shut with his foot.
"I'm not sharing with you."
"You will," Greyson smirked, "soon enough."
Indianna narrowed her eyes at him and he chuckled. "Can you teach me how to get into your head?"
"Well seeing as you don't want to share with me, then no," Greyson shrugged.
"You ass."
"I want to introduce you to the pack," Greyson said and Indianna paled.
"The pack?" She repeated. "That sounds like a lot of people."
"We are a rather small pack because we are specialised, we only have around 150 members, young and old included," Greyson said.
"Small?" Indianna squeaked. "I'm good with staying here. I like it here."
"You're going to have to meet everyone eventually."
"But not now."
"Yes now," Greyson nodded and held his hand out to Indianna. "Let's go."
"No."
"You won't have to talk. I've gathered the pack and I want to introduce you so everyone knows who you are if they see you walking around the pack house."
"I don't want too," Indianna frowned.
"I know and I don't care."
"You aren't very nice, Greyson."
"Deal with it, sugar," Greyson shrugged and grabbed Indianna's hand, yanking her up from the bed.
"Ow!" She snapped and hit his stomach.
His bare and muscle defined stomach.
Greyson chuckled and wrapped his large arm round Indianna's shoulder and pinned her to his side. "Sugar, I understand that you are new to this world, but you need to realise how important you are as the Luna to this pack. You don't get how packs work, you haven't grown up in one, but please be willing to learn. Otherwise I will drag you downstairs by your hair." Greyson's tone turned dark towards the end and Indianna gulped, looking up at him with a glare.
"You need to realise that it's going to be hard for me to get used to this weird werewolf shit! I'm used to not having to worry about anything, but all of a sudden I have responsibilities that I don't want, and apparently I can't avoid them! Greyson, I can't just flip a switch and turn into a super confident 'Luna'. It's going to take a hell of a lot of time for me to get used to it," Indianna snapped and let out a long breath.
"You don't need to be super conf-"
There was a knock on the door and Brooke poked her head in. "Greyson, the pack has gathered, they're waiting on you," she said and Greyson sighed in frustration, running his fingers through his hair.
"Talk to her," he muttered and walked out of the room.
Brooke closed the door behind her and frowned. "Talk about what, hun?"
"He wants me to meet the pack and be a super confident Luna that is willing to talk to everyone, but I can't be," Indianna said and sat back on the bed.
Brooke sighed and joined Indianna on the soft mattress. "It took me a while to get used to pack life. I'm not a werewolf, but I'm Harry's mate so I'm a member of the pack. It's a big deal in the werewolf world. Your pack is your family. They are vital communities and without them the werewolf world would fall apart. It's hard to get your head around, but they need an Alpha and Luna. The pack members need someone to look up to, someone to help them through tough times, someone to lead. It may seem that Greyson isn't taking your shyness into consideration, but he needs you. He won't expect you to be super confident straight away. I'm pretty sure he wants you to enter pack life little by little. He knows you won't jump in, greet everybody, start conversations and build relationships straight away- he just wants you to build up to it."
"He wants me to meet the whole pack. Now," Indianna frowned and chewed on her lip nervously.
"I know," Brooke said softly and stood up. "You going to?"
"I don't want to," Indianna mumbled.
"You won't have to do anything, Hun," Brooke said. "And I'm pretty sure Greyson is explaining right now to the pack about your personality. Your father's story is famous amongst werewolves, it's understandable that you have been affected because of your past, they aren't going to judge you."
