Orphan Luna Chapter 89
Michelle’s POV I wake up having to pee really badly. Blinking my eyes open, I am so warm and comfortable. I desperately don’t want to move. I don’t think I have ever slept this wonderful. I go to get up and realize I am fully tangled up with Leo. My legs are somehow twisted in between his and my arm is up over his warm, broad chest with my hair strewn along his chest. Shockingly, I’m not scared or uncomfortable. My wolf Bella whispers for me to touch him. “We are touching him”. He has some faded scars across his chest and shoulders that I start tracing gently with my fingertips. I’m lost in my own hypnosis when I feel his arm gently swing around my back, softly landing on my shoulder. “Mmmm… that feels nice baby. Good morning”. His husky sexy voice wakes me from my reverie. “Oh goddess, I’m sorry”. I start to push up, away from his chest when he pulls me back towards him, “no come back, I liked it”. I blush, “no, I forgot I really need to use the bathroom
Orphan Luna Chapter 90
Leo’s POV Hearing Michelle’s insecurities escape from her lips, make my childhood crush on Ruth seem petty. That’s legitimately my only “experience”. Looking back on how badly I thought I ‘liked’ her at the time, it deathly pales in comparison to the ocean of love I feel for Michelle. Even knowing her for such a short time, I cannot express to her with words what I would do to keep her safe. She is mine and I am hers. I reach behind her, grabbing a throw blanket and wrap it around her snugly with her still sitting on my lap. I gently turn to lean against the bed and reposition her into my lap so I can cradle her into my chest. “Michelle, I want you to feel comfortable talking to me. I’m your warrior, your mate and you are my woman. There isn’t anything I will not do to keep you safe and protected. I have already killed the men who harmed you here and if you wish, I won’t stop until every single one is underground. You command this army, you are my queen”. S
Orphan Luna Chapter 91
Morrigan’s POV I’m desperate to get this meeting over with and be gone. Selena and Artemis have agreed to accompany me to my father’s court. We’re greeted with a formal procession. At first, I tried to be civil and patient. After the first little bit I lose all civility and storm past the ridiculous parade. I’m here for a conversation, not fucking show and tell. Walking up the council steps and into my father’s summons chambers, I sense he’s not all too pleased that I’ve disrupted the formal parade. Leaning back in his throne chair, he looks at me with disdain. “What’s the rush daughter, I’m sure your human can survive some more without you”. Even my mother recognizes the coldness of his comments. “Listen old man, I’m not going to entertain your insults. Why am I here? Speak your words so I can be gone. I don’t need a damn procession to tell you I’m here”. He leans forward in his chair as if he’s about to attack. Mother grabs his arm… “enough… the both of you
Orphan Luna Chapter 92
Michelle’s POV We’re heading down the steps towards breakfast when I hear far too many voices for comfort. Leo senses my discomfort and holds me closer. “It’s okay my love, they’re all family”. I do recognize two voices and smile when I see Emma. She spots me from the steps. “Michelle!”. She comes jogging over and hugs me tightly. “So happy you’ve decided to move up here”. She sort of yelled that last part which I couldn’t understand. Leo winks at Emma, “subtle sis”. I look between the two of them, confused. Leo just kisses my cheek, “I’ll tell you later love”. Emma takes my elbow and guides me to the table. “Michelle, this is Dana. Dana.. Michelle. You two will see A LOT of each other seeing as how your mates are brothers and fight a lot”. Leo comes out with a plate for Michelle. “Ehh, Zak has relaxed a bit now that Dana has bested him”. Zak comes out with food, “Goddess be damned, what did I say when I came down… if one more person…”. Liam chuckles, “to be fair, Leo
Orphan Luna Chapter 93
Emma’s POV Rounding up these royal A holes into the kitchen, I grab the nearest spatula and aim for Leo’s big head. Strike one, success. “Ow! Dammit Em, that hurt. What was that for?”. Dana laughs, making me and Michelle laugh”. Really bud, you can guess. “Ok fine, we shouldn’t have laughed but really? His wolf was licking her in her sleep, that’s hilarious” Zak chides. “You won’t find it so funny when it’s your pup and your wolf is trying to lick me but you’re sleeping on the couch”. I grin, turning to the voice that hurled the insult. Grinning like the devil, I nod in approval at Dana. “Good girl Dana”. He looks at her in shock. “Really Dana? You think I’m going to try and lick you?”... “Well, first you have to get close enough to try and get me pregnant to begin with. You keep laughing and embarrassing that poor kid, I guarantee that won’t happen”. Liam chuckles from the back counter. I turn to look at my mate. He’s sitting on the counter, eating a chocolat
Orphan Luna Chapter 94
Liam’s POV Looking over at my beautiful Emma, I notice for the umpteenth time she’s scratching at her forehead and hairline. “Why do you keep scratching your face, love?”. She starts rubbing, “I’m not sure but it keeps burning and itching. Are there any dots or anything?”. I don’t see anything, “nope, maybe mom can get you a cream or something but you’re gonna end up a cyclops if you keep digging at your forehead and scare the new members”. She sticks her tongue out at me haphazardly. The girls are busy putting together welcome bags for the newest members, making beds, assessing inventory and occasional minor pillow fights. “Has anyone seen Dan?”. It feels like I haven’t seen my cousin in forever. “Did I hear my name?”. I follow the sound of the voice to a tiny closet. “What on earth and how did you fit in here?” He laughs, “stocking toiletries bud. What’s up?”. “I’m all for helping the pack with anything but you’re an Alpha Dan. Is toiletries really the top p
Orphan Luna Chapter 95
Liam’s POV “Kalen, what’s going on with you buddy? Why now, where have you been?”. He hasn’t left me since age 13. He is so on edge and really worried about Emma, it’s freaking me out. But Emma physically seems okay, so there’s not much I can do. “Morrigan was hurt because of me Liam. I needed some time to come to terms with that. In all of my time as her mate, that’s never happened”. Whoa, shit. That’s deep. “Did it occur to you it wasn’t because of you Kalen, but me? You’re stuck in my body”. This brings up those all too familiar feelings of guilt that Emma raged about me having. “No, this is different. She was almost gone forever Liam”. His words shock me. “Oh. I’m sorry Kalen, I didn’t know. Have you been able to reach her?”. I can feel his sadness. “No. When she heals she goes to the lunar realm which I cannot reach. Selene told me that she is okay though”. I feel so selfish for not having been there for him through all this. “I’m sorry Kalen. I haven’t exa
Orphan Luna Chapter 96
Morrigan’s POV Entering Selene’s realm, I feel entirely different. “Selene, will I ever be able to return here?”. She turns to me, taking my hand. “Typically my wolves do not have access to me, no. However, Emma is my own blood and you have always been my sister so you two have a direct link and may visit any time. Emma, will also learn this… in time of course”. “What happens when Emma’s body dies? Where will I go and what will happen to Kalen now that I am no longer celestial?”. Selene smiles, offering me to take a seat beside her. “When a human dies, their wolf returns to the fountain to be repaired with another human in future. Not all wolves are repaired. There must be a link. I promise that you and Kalen will always remain together, my darling. And Kalen will return to the fountain with you when it’s his time”. “Emma is no ordinary human, Morrigan. When the time comes, she will fill a very important role but until that time, she must thrive under your caref

Liam’s POV *about six weeks later* “Liam, stop pacing”. I look up at Emma who is in labor but can’t push yet. “Why is she so calm?” Kalen nudges. I just shake my head. I have no idea how she’s this calm but it’s going on 20 hours now of labor and contractions but she hasn’t been able to actually push yet. “Oww… ehhh”, Emma lets out a slight shriek. I rush over to her. “Baby, tell me what you need”. Grace comes in, also cool as a cucumber. “Is this like a woman thing Liam?”. Kalen is just as nervous as I am. “Kalen buddy, I have no idea. But I’m freaking out too”. She squeezes my arm, oh shit that hurts. “Oh sorry baby”. I rub her hand, “no, squeeze all you need it’s fine”. I may regret that later. Grace checks her progress, “ooh, Emma my girl, you are finally ready. You feel like you can push?”. Emma takes a breath in, “no, I’m just gonna chill here a while and do a crossword”. She giggles, “yes, please… get them out of me!”. Grace looks at me, “you
Orphan Luna Chapter 137
Emma’s POV “I can’t believe it’s already been three weeks. Are you sure everything is ready?”. I’m a nervous wreck. Ruth is curling my hair, getting us ready for the ceremony. “Relax, Emma. Darling. Everything is set, just chill”. Grace comes in, followed by Savannah, Michelle and Dana. They’re all dressed and look stunning. Each chose their own style of emerald dress with gold jewelry. Grace in a gold dress. “Mama Grace!”, I look her up and down. “You are gorgeous”. She twirls and curtsies. Ruth scolds me, “quit moving child”. I sulk, “sorry mother”. She finishes my hair and light makeup. “Oh boy, the moment of truth. Hopefully it fits”. I step into the bathroom and shimmy into the gown only this time Grace steps in behind me. “Oh honey, you look stunning”. I look at myself in the mirror as she laces up the gown. “Thank you Grace”. She pulls a box from a bag and reveals a stunning pair of emerald earrings. “Oh my, Grace. That’s too much”. She swats my hand
Orphan Luna Chapter 136
Liam’s POV Luckily we anticipated these waits and brought a deck of cards. We got some odd looks but we had fun with our parking lot poker. Finally my Luna emerged after what felt like eternity. “You win us some money honey?”, her voice is like food for my soul. I scoop her up and spin her around, making her squeal a little. “We get to pick lunch huh?”, as I leave a little kiss on her mark. “Yeah, you guys pick Hooter’s or something?”. I squeeze her into me as Zak chuckles. “Why on earth would be take an entourage of our women folk there?”, Zak chides. “Culture Zak. Besides, Ian’s never been I bet”. He busts out laughing. I nip Emma’s shoulder lightly, “what did you guys do in that dress shop that has you so defiant miss Emma? No. We aren’t going to Hooter’s nor would we. Believe it or not, we’ve actually never been AND… I’ve heard their food sucks. Besides, I’ve got all the hooters I want right here”. I playfully caress her boob. Dana giggles, “You started
Orphan Luna Chapter 135
Emma’s POV Since Ruth got Liam on board with shopping, we just lumped the maternity wedding session into the trip too oh and… PEDICURES! The boys don’t know what’s coming. As we roll into the salon parking lot, Liam grumbles something and looks at Zak. “Zak, did you know about this?”. Dana and I giggle, “remember what you said Alpha, that you’d be willing to do it with me?”. His face goes super serious and almost pale. “Luna, I’d literally die for you but this… this is a lot to ask. Zak help me out”. There’s a smirk on the Beta’s face, “sorry boss, no can do. I do remember you saying you’d try it. Besides, my woman wants one too so here I am. Just suck it up”. Liam wraps his arms around me and kisses my temple. “You’re lucky I love you so damn much. And you…”, pointing to Zak, “definitely knew about this”. As we exit the SUV, Zak quips back, “pretty sure you’re the only one who doesn’t know Liam”. No one could miss the group of our brooding men, who insist on walkin
Orphan Luna Chapter 134
Erik’s POV As I lay on the mattress, I am at peace with the decision to die. I deserve it and I hope it’s not swift or painless. I deserve whatever is coming. There are no clocks in these cells so I have no way of knowing the hour. I begin to doze off eventually until I hear a voice in my cell. That’s the same voice that rang through my head in court that day, telling me judgment was upon me. I open my eyes and see a pair of purple eyes staring at me from the corner. “So it was you? Why you’re interested in these matters I don’t know but…”. She comes out of the shadows somewhat, revealing her face. Her long hair cascades down her face, framing her angelic face. “To what do I owe the honor of a visit from a Goddess?”. She’s studying me, not speaking. Finally, I relax back into the bed and lean against the wall. “My blood asked me to grant you a delicate death but I sense that isn’t what you want”. Her blood? Who would…? “Are you saying Emma is your blood
Orphan Luna Chapter 133
Liam’s POV Holy crap. My Luna just suggested anal to me. Kalen comes forward, “it’s natural bud, go for it”. I scowl at him, “maybe for you, you’re a dog. Besides, I don’t want to hurt her”. Wait, does this mean she’s done that before? Suddenly I feel insecure. And on cue, Emma tells me I’d be her first. Great, now my dick is impossibly hard. There’s no going back from this erection. She leads us into the bedroom and reaches for a gift bag. “Who gifted you lube?”I'm suddenly very pissed. She giggles… “no baby, it was a gag for the baby shower- it’s KY jelly. They use it for birth but um… well, I sort of googled this once like last week… cause…”. Before she could finish, I had her pinned on the bed. She laughs in between kisses, “so you’re not mad I googled it? It was a ‘how to’ but yeah, a lot of ummm interesting things came up. But I wanted to be prepared and I wanted to try this with you”. I kiss all along her mark, making her arousal thicken around me. “No ba
Orphan Luna Chapter 132
Emma’s POV As soon as Liam left, I realized I only have two hours to accomplish my plan. I reach out for Selene, praying she’s listening. “It’s sort of an emergency and I wouldn’t be contacting you if I didn’t need to”. There’s a tingling in my mind followed by, “meet me downstairs for tea”. I gently make my way downstairs, honoring the promise to my mate and doctor. I love referring to Grace as my doctor. It makes her sound so official. I see Selene sitting in a corner chair, sipping on a cup of tea. “I’m glad you’ve made yourself comfortable”, I tease. She smiles, “I’m glad to see you’re feeling better”. As I take a seat, I remember Liam screaming at her last night. “Does my feeling better have anything to do with Liam cursing you last night?”, I lift a brow questioningly. She smiles but doesn’t reply. “What is this favor you speak of?”. I grab for the second cup of tea, secretly wishing it were hot chocolate. Only when I look back at the cup, it’s cha
Orphan Luna Chapter 131
Michelle’s POV During recess, I let Dan and Savannah have some private time. At this point, I no longer cared about my own testimony but she was pregnant with that monster’s child… My uncle’s. How would Dan react? If roles were changed and it were me, I’m not sure Leo would be so happy. Sure he’d accept it because it wasn’t my fault but he would try and kill Erik I’m sure of it. I’m brought from my thoughts with the smell of coffee wafted under my nose. I giggle, opening my eyes to find Leo baiting me. “Don’t think too hard darling, that’s my job”. He kisses my cheek, handing me my coffee. We sit in comfortable silence for a bit, soaking up some sunlight when we’re summoned back into the courthouse. “The council has agreed after deliberation that all parties tried, are guilty of all charges laid before them”. They laid out the punishments for the lower ranked members and finally made it to Erik. “With regard to the former Alpha Regent, Erik is to be execute
Orphan Luna Chapter 130
Savannah’s POV I had been feeling extra emotional these last few days. I chalked it up to the impending trial and everything as a whole. This has been a tense time for the pack and group. Seeing Erik yesterday was overwhelming. It caused a lot of flashbacks and worsened my already bad night terrors. Dan has been such a sweetheart. He gives me plenty of space which I know is so hard for him, especially being an alpha but I know he knows I’m going through a lot. I have kept a secret calendar marking off the days since the horrid night Erik took my virginity. It’s been 45 days and no cycle. Shit. When I had been at Ruth’s house, I remember she had some pregnancy tests in her bathroom but how the hell would I get in there? What about the clinic? Would they just give me one discreetly? Dan cannot know about this. Waking up extremely early, the morning of the trial, I ran over to the hospital where I had been visiting the girls- Anna, Hannah and Bree; that Regan h
