Mate to One, Luna for Two 122.CONSTANT CHANGE
Declan's POVIt's been two days since the alliance meeting, and I was yet to receive any news from Vanessa. She has been awfully quiet, and I haven't caught a glimpse of her.I am starting to lose my mind from the fear of waking up one day and realizing that Vanessa had run away with my son. I'd lose it. I have spent four years without them, I do not want to spend another second away from them.I felt even more irritated because I couldn't go to her even though I knew where she was hiding. My wolf was there to constantly remind me about how I was the reason she had nowhere else to go. As stupid as it sounds, I know she would have returned home to Tristan if I hadn't revealed the truth.She is probably hiding right now because she can't bring herself to face him.And there is Jude who thinks I have done enough and any other attempts from me will scare her away. As much as I wanted to drag them back if that is what it takes to have them around me, I realized that I couldn't do that. No
Mate to One, Luna for Two 123.ALPHA ON BOARD
Vanessa's POVMy heartbeat matches with the sound of the wall clock, as my heart keeps on beating fast out of fear and anxiety. I don't know what is going to happen next once we get to the Eastern pack or where we will be staying. I just knew that I needed to get far away from Declan and that is all that matters right now.Jenny left me alone to get some rest, but here I am, staring at the ceiling as my eyes keep on going to the wall clock, every second that passes by.I was nervous and I am afraid I might not be able to give Dame the kind of life he deserves. The money we got from selling off my jewellery would only last me for a little moment. I need to find a means of survival but before I can do that, I need to get there first and see how things are.I am going to a pack where I don't know anyone there, or understand their rules. I know it will take a little time to fit in, but I guess I will have to deal with all of my worries later.I checked the time for the umpteenth time toni
Mate to One, Luna for Two 124.OUT OF HER WAY
Vanessa's POVI remained quiet for a while, unable to digest what was going on. Fear erupted in my vision, but I tried to stay calm. I can't possibly give Declan the satisfaction he needs right now. He can't see how much his presence scares me."What do you think you are doing?" I summoned my courage to ask, and he stared at me unfazed by my tone."Look, I am not here to make a scene. Get out of the ship right now and everyone could get back to their business. The more you try to prolong things the longer you will keep the others waiting and I honestly don't have the luxury to waste my time on arguing when we both know how it would end."Declan's voice was sharp and I could tell that he wouldn't make this easy for me, but I refused to adhere to his order. He is in no position to order me around or tell me what to do."What right do you think you have to control me? Shall I remind you that I am no longer your Luna or a member of your pack? So give a reason why I should listen to you."
Mate to One, Luna for Two 125.THE WAY IT USED TO BE
Vanessa's POVMoving back to Declan's house was the least of things I wanted for myself, but seeing how I was left with no choice, I tried to go back to how I used to live.Jenny was still here to help me with everything I needed and Dame is doing just fine too, so I guess I can manage as long as a certain person does not try to act funny and just stays far away from me.Dame has become my only priority and it has become my daily routine to wake up early and go to his room to bathe him and get him dressed. Today, like every other day, I went into his room to find him still sleeping peacefully on the bed.I woke him up lightly and he groaned in response. The look on his face made me smile and I carried him gently into the bathroom. I splashed cold water on his body to make him fully awake and he jumped from the impact."Mommy!" He whined and I laughed.He retaliated by splashing water on me and we played with the water a little more before bathing him. I searched his closet for casual
Mate to One, Luna for Two 126.AN EMPTY GRAVE
Declan's POVThe silent treatment Vanessa has been giving me was driving me insane and I honestly don't know for how long I would have to wait for her to stop with all the childishness.It was starting to be insufferable and I am yet to understand why she is acting as if I did something wrong by stopping her from running away with my son."Do you really believe that you haven't done anything wrong? She wanted to leave but you won't even allow her to leave on her own accord and you are wondering why she is angry?" My wolf scoffed and I wondered why he was always taking sides with Vanessa."I stopped her because she was running away with my son. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have ensured that I never found them.""Why didn't you just take your son and leave her then? Why did you drag her back?""Because she wouldn't have been able to leave without her son anyway. I only saved both of our time by dragging her out of the ship before she did something stupid like jumping inside the wa
Mate to One, Luna for Two 127.TOO LATE.
Vanessa's POVI felt helpless for not having any chance to help Dame right now other than wait patiently for the doctor to come out and tell us the exact thing that was wrong with him. I paced around the hospital corridors anxiously, stepping in the ways of every nurse or doctor that passed by to get any information about Dame's health but it was as if they had all planned on getting on my word as every single one of them kept repeating the same thing."Be patient, the doctor is already with him."The reply was starting to get on my nerves and I was about to pick a fight when Jenny stopped me before I could cause a scene. “Hey, calm down. They said the doctor is with him, so just calm down and allow them to run proper tests on the boy. They can't take forever." Jenny tried to calm me down, but as another nurse came out of the emergency room, I rushed over to her side and Jenny sighed."How is he doing?" I can tell that she was about to repeat the same bullshit as the rest, so I cut
Mate to One, Luna for Two 128.JUST ANOTHER DREAM
Vanessa's POVIt felt like my whole world crumbled right in front of me as the doctor announced the dreadful news. I lost my balance and almost fell from the seat. No, this is just another dream, right?It was just like the nightmare I had a couple of days ago. Dame is hale and hearty. There is no way anything could have been wrong with him. We were playing a few hours ago… He was okay. There was nothing wrong with him…If this is another nightmare, someone should wake me up. I looked between the doctor and Declan, and both of them had their gaze fixed on me, studying my reaction.I let out a dry laugh, refusing to believe the doctor. My vision became blurry and every other thing they were saying suddenly became a whisper in my ear. Their voices were too faint for me to comprehend what they were saying.I staggered out of the room out of shock, still trying hard to process what was happening.I need to find Dame. I need to see my boy, there is nothing wrong with him… he just needs his
Mate to One, Luna for Two 129.ASSHOLE FATHER…PROUD FATHER
Declan's POVMy chest tightened from the pain I was feeling from within and I clenched my fist on the steering wheel. I felt helpless. Despite all my money and power, I can't seem to help my son survive his desperate time.My chest rose and fell from trying to hold back so many emotions and it felt like I was about to lose it.Seeing how Vanessa acted earlier, I knew I had to be strong for her, for Dame, but no matter how strong I tried to be, it didn't make the pain go away. I can't believe that Dame was truly dying.I had missed four years out of his life. Four long years that I can neither buy nor get back no matter how much I tried. No amount of pleading or good effort would make up for the lost time, but I was willing to live with it, and now, Dame is dying and there is nothing I can do about it.It was times like this that I do think maybe the universe has something against me. Maybe I was cursed or the universe is just a jealous motherfucker who can't afford to see me happy.Wh

Mate to One, Luna for Two EPILOGUE
Vanessa's POV"Vanessa! Come and play with us!""Yes please, we are tired of playing alone," the kids whined as I sat down on the swing and watched them play by themselves."No, we want to play hide and seek," one of the kids whined, and I smiled at them."We have been playing hide and seek all morning," I said, still panting, from running for a long time. "You should play another game or I will have everyone go back inside," I threatened them, but it didn't even look like they were listening to me."Let's play a video game. Whoever wins gets to decide what we do next," one of the kids suggested, and I couldn't help but smile about how they reminded me of Dame in every way. That trick was the same Tristan and Dame always used to get whatever they want, and watching the kids say the same thing made me smile.It was as if the kids knew about my past life. They always find a way to remind me of the past in every way.It's been three years since I left the southern pack. Three years of le
Mate to One, Luna for Two 146. FORGET THE PAST
Vanessa's POVI have concluded that I would be leaving once I regained my strength, but I do not want what happened when I tried to leave the last time to repeat itself. I know Declan would probably be looking all over the place for me, and he might have stopped me from leaving again, so I thought of writing a letter to him instead.I knew going to see him and telling him whatever I had to say was the proper way to end everything, but I was afraid that I might change my mind if I saw his pained expression, or even melt at his words if he surprised me by begging me to stay or do something worse like lock me up in his house to prevent me from leaving. With Declan, one can never be too sure.I opened the drawer and saw everything the way I left it. It was as if Tristan was hoping that one day I would return back to him. I expected him to throw out all of my belongings and wipe out every single trace or reminder of me in his pack, but he didn't.I imagined the good life I could have had w
Mate to One, Luna for Two 145.GONE FOREVER
Declan's POVTwo days have passed, and I have no clue where Vanessa might be. Even after watching the CCTV footage, I refused to believe that Vanessa would leave me. I spoke to the doctor and he said the side effects of the drug and injection he gave her were drowsiness and hallucination. Judging from how she left the hospital, I want to believe that she was sleepwalking and she is properly in some kind of danger right now.I had my men look everywhere for her, but she was nowhere to be found. We searched everywhere… every single road that led to the hospital. The streets nearby, we even went as far as searching through the people's houses, but there was no sign of Vanessa.I sat in my room, tapping on my table as I thought of where she might have gone. What if she had an accident? Then, the police would have said something. She doesn't have anywhere to go. She doesn't even have anything on her, where could she possibly go?Jenny…I rushed over to the kitchen where Jenny was busy cutt
Mate to One, Luna for Two 144. Déjà Vu
Vanessa's POVCrying for so long made me feel numb and it felt like there was no water left in my eyes to shed. The injection given to me made me drowsy and my head felt heavy. I know the smartest thing to do right now was to sleep or at least lay on the bed and get some rest, but I can't afford to be anywhere around Declan anymore and I just wanted to leave.Staying in the hospital reminds me of how I watched Dame's lifeless body on the bed without being able to do anything to revive him and I think it's best to just leave.My vision was blurry, and I felt so weak. I knew I had to leave, but I couldn't even think straight. With trembling hands, I reached for the tube in my arm, wincing as I pulled it out. The pain shot through me, but I gritted my teeth and kept going. Finally, I was able to pull it out, and I staggered out of the ward, barefoot and disoriented.Every step felt like a hassle as I made my way down the corridor. I have to get out of here. Those were the only thoughts i
Mate to One, Luna for Two 143.HOW WE MOURN THE DEAD
Declan's POVI stormed back home, feeling enraged, as my insides boiled with anger like a pot left unattended on a raging fire. Guilt weighed down on me at the reminder of Vanessa's accusations, and shame chewed me up inside. As much as I hated to admit it, she was right. Dame died because of me, I killed him.Even if that was true, it's not like I neglected them intentionally. She has equal blame in all of this. She ran away with my child and only showed up years later. If she hadn't left, or if she had ignored her pride and informed me about the pregnancy, none of this would have happened.Dame's death hasn't been easy on me too, heck, it hasn't been easy on anyone. Even the maids are grieving his death so what made her think she could get mad at me on this? I understand that she was mourning her child, but he was my son too.I could feel all sorts of emotions surge inside me; anger, irritation, hurt, and pain.The last time I felt this way was when I lost Ellena, and now, once agai
Mate to One, Luna for Two 142. WALKING DEAD
Chapter 140Vanessa's POVI woke up in the hospital bed, surrounded by the sterile scent of antiseptic and the low hum of medical equipment. My body felt heavy like I was being dragged in the mud, and all of my pain came rushing back in double folds.When I lost Dame in the rogue attack, I thought that would be the end of me. I cried every day and became a mess because he was all I lived for. But then Tristan came back to tell me he was alive, all of my pains vanished into the air. It felt like I was given a reason to live again. To work harder, to become a better mother.Just when I thought I had all the time in the world to be with my boy, I lost him to the cold hands of death. I wanted to scream, to yell out my frustration. I wanted to blame somebody so badly, and hate them for the rest of my life, but where do I begin?I haven't shed a single tear since we got back home from the hospital. This one was different— I had two weeks to prepare for his death. His death wasn't exactly ne
Mate to One, Luna for Two 141.MISERABLE DAYS
Chapter 139Declan's POVIt's been a week since Dame died. Seven miserable days of wishing and hoping even though no amount of breakdown would bring him back. The last time I felt this vulnerable was when Ellena died. I wasn't even this sad when I lost my parents.Everything felt vain and I had lost the will to continue with my role as the Alpha or do anything to gain more wealth or power. What was the use of all my power and influence when it couldn't save my son from dying?What is the point of being the most powerful Alpha when I can't even keep the one thing I wanted most in my life?What hurt the most was the fact that I was beside Dame when he took his last breath, but I wasn't there for him. I slept peacefully that night, thinking I still had another day to grant his wishes. I went to bed feeling on top of the world because I finally got to hear him call me father, not knowing those would be his last words.If only I had known that those were the last time I'd hear him speak, m
Mate to One, Luna for Two 140.GOODBYE
Vanessa's POVI traced my hands on the bed, expecting to feel a small hand or at least a tiny body, but there was none. I opened my eyes lazily and found myself in a room different from the one I thought I would be in.I was at Dame's ward until last night, how did I end up here? Judging from the smell, I could tell that I was still at the hospital. Did I pass out? I searched my body checking for any visible injury but other than the throbbing pain in my heart and the headache that has become a constant thing since I found out about Dame's health, I am all good.Maybe Declan brought me here so that I can sleep peacefully. I stood up from the bed and made my way to Dame's ward, where Dame and Declan were sleeping peacefully.This is the first time Declan has looked peaceful since we have been visiting the hospital. He was trying so hard to stay strong, to hide his feelings, but he couldn't always keep them in check. His expressions sometimes sell him off.Dame clung onto Declan's cloth
Mate to One, Luna for Two 139.LAST MINUTE MIRACLE
Declan's POVVanessa paced the room anxiously, waiting for Tristan to return with Dame as I watched from the minibar. We haven't said a word to each other since our last encounter in the morning and I do not want to say another word knowing she would end up misunderstanding it.Right on cue, Tristan came in with Dame sleeping peacefully in his arms. Vanessa's worried expression was soon replaced with excitement as she rushed over to his side."Thank you so much for today," Vanessa gave Tristan a warm smile which made my stomach twitch. The way Dame and Vanessa act so comfortable around Tristan was enough to rile me up, and once again, Tristan does that thing he always does.He acts like the perfect gentleman that Vanessa could always lean on. Too fake if you ask me. They seemed to be carried away with their little conversation to notice my presence.I made my way to them, and Tristan handed a basket of fruit to Vanessa simultaneously."What is that?" I pointed at the little puppy roam
