Chasing my Luna CHAPTER 64
Chapter 64: An Uneasy PeaceThe meeting concluded, though the energy in the room did not.The council had no further quibbling, but its silence said a great deal. They weren’t convinced. They weren’t satisfied.They were watching.Waiting.For me to slip up. For me to prove them right.And I never doubted that when it came down to it, they wouldn’t give a second’s thought to turning on me.Elias walked beside me, his signature smirk still intact as we left the meeting hall. But I knew him too well now not to see the keen watchfulness behind it.“They didn’t say it,” he muttered, “but they still don’t trust you.”I exhaled. “I know.”He tilted his head. “And that doesn’t concern you?”I shrugged. “I don’t need their trust. I just need them to be scared of losing to me.”Elias let out a low whistle. “Now that’s the spirit.”We walked outside and the cool mountain air hit me like a breath of clarity. Kade was waiting, already, a few paces from the fortress wall, his silver eyes fixed on

Chapter 65: A Mother's SacrificeThe fire crackled quietly and threw fluttering shadows on the trees. The night was quiet but my mind was anything but.I sat with my back to a fallen log, my cloak tightened around me, the flames dancing in my eyes. The heat barely reached the chill lodged deep in my chest.Because I allowed myself to think of them for the first time in days.My babies.My heart squeezed painfully at the vision of their little faces; I curled my fists.Their smell was still fresh in my mind — soft, new, unhindered by the world. The way they curled into me while they slept, the way their little hands grabbed for me outside of their understanding of what was happening.And I had left them.I had left them.Some nights, the guilt was unbearable.Like now.“Elias moved next to me, eyes fixed and unreadable on the fire. He had been quiet for some time, but I could feel his curiosity, how he was waiting for me to say something.I exhaled slowly. “They’re safe.”Elias looked

Chapter 66: On the Road to the UnknownThe fire was low, crackling quietly in the still night. The weight of exhaustion lay against my bones, but sleep just wouldn’t. Not when my brain wouldn’t shut up.Not when I saw my children’s faces every time I closed my eyes.Elias had settled easily into the rhythm, gazing into the flames with a dazed sort of concentration, but I could tell he wasn’t entirely at ease either. He was waiting. Watching. Not for threats — though those would surely come — but for me.He was there waiting for me to crack.I wouldn’t want to give him the satisfaction.Instead, I curled in tight at the knees and looked into the darkness past the firelight. The forest surrounding us was silent, but it was a deceptive kind of silence. The kind that listened.That waited.“We should leave at first light,” Elias murmured, breaking the stalemate of silence.I exhaled. “Agreed.”“Unless, of course, you’ve suddenly decided to head back.”I shot him a sharp look. “You know th

Chapter 67: Into the Lion’s DenAs we drew closer to the river, the noise of rushing water grew louder, the current filament weaving between dense foliage like a silver snake under the moon.As Elias and I passed through the bank, we looked around. The air was heavy with the smell of damp earth, pine, and something else — something unnatural.“We’re almost there,” I gasped, the adrenaline surging.Humming, Elias rubbed the back of his neck. “Yeah. Too close.”I frowned. “What do you mean?”He shot me a look. “I mean, we’ve been walking through rogue territory for hours, and no one’s tried to kill us yet.”I exhaled. “You sound disappointed.”Elias smirked. “Not disappointed. Just… suspicious.”I didn’t blame him.Rogues weren’t the sitting-waiting kind. If they knew we were coming — and I had no doubt they did — then why hadn’t they revealed themselves?I glanced at the area again, my wolf stirring under my skin.Something wasn’t right.As I stepped forward, a deep voice came from the

Chapter 68: Tethered by Destiny, Severed by DesireKade’s utterance lingered between us, dense with unvoiced weight. Come back with me. Three little words, and yet they pierced like a knife to the ribs. My pulse thundered in my ears as I fought to suppress the heat in my chest, ignore the primitive fire burning all the more brightly in his silver gaze. I had run from one betrayal to another for years, had spent my entire life knowing how to survive without depending on anyone. Now fate was brazen enough to gift me a second mate? And not just anyone—Kade. An Alpha. A man I couldn’t afford to let into my life.I clenched my fists. “You do not get to demand this of me.”Kade’s jaw ticked. “No right? Jessica, you disappeared. No warning. No explanation. You gift me with a pack council on my heels defending you as you marched straight into rogue territory armed with a fucking dagger and nothing else but your stubbornness.”“I didn’t ask you to defend me,” I hissed, my voice slicing the air

Chapter 69: Bound in Blood and FlameWe doubled up and ran through the very green forest, the plants meeting us and loosening up. It was sharp air, full of damp earth and pine, the wind cutting through my cloak as we staggered toward the unknown.We’d been running for hours at a punishing speed, which I didn’t mind at all. Every second I spent was another second closer to losing my kids.Kade jogged next to me, his silver eyes raking the shadows for threats. He made no sound, just concentrated, but I could sense him， a fire licking my skin. The mate bond throbbed between us, raw and undeniable, a tie neither of us had asked for but could no longer ignore.Elias matched me on my other side, the usual smirk gone. Even he knew the stakes now. The rogue Alpha—who’d finally introduced himself as Maddox—lagged just behind, studying us with inscrutable eyes.The tension was thick. We all knew what we were getting ourselves into.But we did not speak it openly.Not yet.The Moment the World C

Chapter 1: The Last AnniversaryMy hands trembled as I stared at the third pregnancy test, the two pink lines unmistakable against the white plastic. Just like the other two tests scattered across my marble bathroom counter. After five years of trying, of monthly disappointments and tearful nights, our miracle was finally happening.I pressed my palm against my still-flat stomach, fighting back tears. *Our pup.* The wolf inside me purred with contentment, already fiercely protective of the tiny life growing within. "Alpha Female Jessica?" Maria's voice carried through the door. "The ceremonial preparations are complete."I quickly swept the tests into my drawer. "Coming!" The anniversary celebration could wait. Tonight, after the pack gathering, I'd tell Bryan everything. I imagined his golden eyes lighting up, his strong arms lifting me in joy. Five years of trying had strained our bond, but this would make everything perfect again.The great hall buzzed with activity as pack member

Chapter 2: Shattered PiecesThe steady beep of hospital monitors pulled me from darkness. Everything hurt – my body, my pride, my heart. But my first conscious thought went straight to my stomach.*Please*, I prayed, trying to move my hands. They felt like lead. *Please let my baby be okay.*"Don't move." A nurse's firm grip on my shoulder. "You've been in and out for three days. The pups are stable."Pups. Plural.My eyes flew open, vision blurry but focusing on the nurse's sympathetic face. "What did you say?""Twins," she said softly. "We almost lost all three of you, but your wolf... well, I've never seen maternal instincts that strong. You transformed while unconscious, created a protective cocoon around your stomach. Saved their lives."Twins. Bryan's twins. The irony almost made me laugh, but it came out as a sob instead. He'd thrown away not just me, but three lives. All for his precious pack status.The door opened, and Adam slipped in, looking like he hadn't slept in days. H

Chapter 63: A Figure in the DarknessThe air was thick inside the pack the day after Lucian left.Tense.Like the whole settlement was expecting something to happen.I felt their staring, the judgment burning through my skin each time I walked outside. The council didn’t trust me. The warriors maintained a safe distance.And while Kade had been there for me, I realized he couldn’t shield me from everything.Not forever.So that meant I needed to insulate myself.And it began with learning who in this pack was already working against me.I wasn’t stupid.Lucian had made himself clear — he was not giving up.And if he weren’t coming for me tonight, somebody else would be.Elias Shows Up When You Least Expect HimFor the rest of the evening I didn’t leave my cabin though I paced the cramped quarters mulling through my options.I needed a plan.I needed to know who in this pack wanted me dead.And if I couldn’t get that info out of Kade—I knew exactly who to ask.The knock on my door cam

Chapter 62: A Pack DividedThe morning came too soon.Sleep had been amist and impermanent, catching sand in my hands. My body was tired, but my mind was racing. I could feel the weight of Kade’s words, hear the golden-eyed figure’s whispers every time I closed my eyes, see the flames of my old home burning behind me.I wasn’t safe.Not here.Not anywhere.But I had nowhere else to go.Kade had saved me. He had taken me in.Now he was leading me to his pack.I was not sure if that was a blessing or a death sentence.The ArrivalKade’s pack was unlike any I’d ever seen.It was well into the mountains, tucked away in a large valley that rose to steep cliff faces. The land was broad with cabins and farms, but there in the center loomed a fortress — tall, ancient, hewn into the rock itself.A true stronghold.A pack built for war.Kade rode ahead of me as we entered through the gates, his silver eyes darting over the settlement. Wolves eyed us from afar, some shuffling from their human sh

Chapter 61: The Dark KnightThe silence didn’t last long.I had hardly started to register the presence there inside when the air began shifting.A growl. Low. Hungry.Not from within me.From the trees.I pivoted abruptly, my sore shoulder protesting the motion. Dark figures emerged from the shadows — rogues — and my breath caught.Four of them.I could see their eyes glinting in the moonlight, their bodies tight and tensed, ready to strike.I was bleeding. Injured.They could smell my weakness.I gulped and forced myself to my feet. My legs wobbled, my balance faltering, but I wouldn’t go down without a fight.One of the rogues—larger than the others—stepped forward, baring a feral grin. “Looks like we got a stray.”I balled my hands into fists, claws extending. “Turn around and leave.”The rogue chuckled. “Or what? You can barely stand.”I bared my teeth. “Try me.”His grin widened. “Gladly.”And then—He lunged.I barely avoided it, my injured shoulder screaming in protest. My cla
