Secrets of the Luna Chapter 188
My words got stuck in my throat as I looked around. Camera’s flashed in my eyes. The reporters were anxiously waiting for me to speak as they held up their microphones. I realized that I wasn’t going to like being in the public eye. “You got this.” Ethan pushed some confidence into me. Taking a deep breath, I kept my back straight and started talking. “Years ago, I founded this business as a way to focus my creative side. Programing has always been something that I have excelled at. I have spent years designing and shaping G. Anderson Security to provide the best possible system for all businesses. Those who have been with me for years can confirm my quarterly upgrades. Constantly upgrading allows me to stay on top of any cyber breeches, holes and the use of additional technological advances. In the entire history of G. Anderson Security, there hasn’t been a single failure that has resulted in a loss of life or revenue. The reason my identity was kept under wraps was simply because

“This entire floor is your office.” As the doors opened, a massive room came into view. The entire fall wall of windows that wrapped around the side. Boxes lined the left wall that kept going around the elevator as far as I could see. “There is your desk and computer.” Isaac pointed to the obvious desk. “Around the corner is more of a livingroom area and bathroom. We can put up a divider if you want.”I watched Isaac feel the wall. “I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you.” I said dismissively. Walking towards my desk, I could feel Isaac awkwardly walking around. “I’ll.. uh… I’ll be in my office. If you need anything, speed dial #1 is me and #2 is the front desk. We can move those around if you want to.” “Thanks.” I said without looking up. Keeping my eyes on the computer as it loaded. My eyes didn’t leave the computer until the elevator completely closed. “We need to put a password on the elevator.”“That is assuming you actually are here enough to make it worth your while,” Ethan said.

“Come on. I’ll give you a ride back to our pack.” Dad motioned for us to head towards the car he drove up in. “Really?” I asked, as Ethan guided me down the sidewalk. It wasn’t like we had a choice. “What about Zeke?” “What about him?” “I want to stop at their house quickly. There are those clothes I want to get.” I half lied. I didn’t really care about the clothes, but I wanted to speak with them. “Fine, but make it quick. I got shit to do.” Dad slammed his door shut as Ethan opened the back door for me. Vincent got in the passenger seat and Ethan slid in beside me. The entire ride back to Zeke’s house was silent. Vincent was tapping the center consol to a tune that I couldn’t place. “What do you need at Zeke’s house?” Ethan mind-linked me. “I want them to know they can have a safe place in our pack if they need to leave.” Ethan didn’t respond, but nodded in agreement. I wasn’t sure I knew who my dad was anymore. Maybe I am just seeing another side of him that I didn’t know. He

I couldn’t contain the anger that festered as we drove away. Seeing my dad’s body laying on the ground getting smaller and smaller was that worst I have ever felt. I know he didn’t treat me the best, but he was still my dad. He raised me how he thought was the safest. As his body got outside of my eyesight, I realized I wouldn’t change anything about my childhood. He was my dad. Focus, Grace. Focus. I needed to figure out how to get us out of this. These innocent people had no business being here. My eyes landed on the two girls across from me. They were holding onto their leg of their dad. Zeke was trying to find a position that didn’t hurt. However, with his one good eye, we made contact. I knew that he was in agreement with what I was about to do. My hands weren’t tied. Ethan and Vincent would protect Rose. Zeke would protect his girls. This fight was between me and the masked men. Tilting my head, I tried to silently communicate my plan to Zeke. There were three men. Two in the

My arms were shaking as I struggled. Suddenly, the gun flew forward as it went off. The bullet grazed up my entire face before it flew into the dash. I could feel the burn from my cheek, up to my eye, and it didn’t stop until it was over my forehead. “Grace?” Hands grabbed my head and turned it. “Please be okay?” Zeke anxiously moved me to he could see my face. I watched as his one good eye looked at the bullet wound.“How bad is it?” I asked with a little laugh. “Probably will leave a nasty scar.” He let go of me. “Come on. We need to leave.” “What about the other car?” I asked as my feet moved so I could climb in the back.“Everyone is fine.”“You came back for me?” Looking in the back, I could see two dead bodies but no little girls. “I got my girls out. There was a split second thought about not, but I couldn’t leave you.” Zeke grabbed my arm and helped me out.“GRACE!” I heard Ethan yell. My heart instantly ached for him. “Ethan?” It almost came out as a whimper. The moment

Ethan ripped the phone from Vincent. “I’m not sure they can come to the phone…Zach.” Ethan growled. My stomach just dropped in the pit of my stomach. This can’t be. This can’t be right. Zach can’t be behind this. This was Ethan’s friend. Someone Ethan trusted with his life. Someone we had brought into our packhouse and told him our strategy. Zach’s laugh echoed through the phone. “I can’t say I’m surprised. She is a feisty one.” “Why?” Ethan was struggling with his words. “It’s just business. Nothing personal.” “Nothing personal? You have tried to kill my mate. How many times now?” Ethan finally accepting it and now was just filled with rage. “Hey!” Zach sounded like he was enjoying this. “I didn’t try to kill her. Only kidnap. That is a huge difference. It’s not my fault she keeps fighting back and getting hurt.” “You didn’t answer my question. Why?” “It’s just business. It’s not personal and honestly, I didn’t want it to be this way. If I was able to get my hands on her befo

“I love that!” She sat in front of her sister. Their blonde hair bounced with their movements. Honey, golden eyes held all the excitement in the world. “Thanks! We named like flower like mommy!” Violet looked back at her mom. Zeke moved over and sat beside Rose. “Girls. Let Grace rest.” “It’s really okay. I don’t mind.” “Does you face hurt?” Lilly asked. “I… I scratch my face and I cry.” I couldn’t help the laugh that came up. However, it was hard to resist the smile, enough though it hurt.“Yeah, my face does hurt, but I’m okay. I’ve had worse.” Lilly looked appalled. “You had worse?” “Not on my face, but yeah. This will heal just fine. I might have a scar, though. That would look pretty cool, huh?” “I think so!” Violet clapped her hands. “Do you have any children?” Rose asked, bring my attention away from the girls. “We don’t. Not yet. I’m hoping to get this threat neutralized before we bring children into the world.” “He seems to really care about you. Really love you.” R

“Yeah. We need to make it to an abandoned airport just east of here. Damon is sending a plane and backup. I wasn’t about to get hold of Travis.” The worry in Ethan’s face was clear, but no one commented on it. “How’s your face?” Vincent asked with a mouth full of food.“Not nice to talk with food in mouth!” Lilly chastised. Rose choked on her water. “LILLY!” Zeke said in a very dad’s voice. Vincent started chuckling and swallowed his food. “You are correct. That wasn’t very good manners, was it?” “What, daddy?” Lilly looked at her dad with confusion. “It’s alright.” Vincent sat down next to Lilly. “So, how is your face?” “Not as stiff since Ethan cleaned it, but tight.” “I put some numbing stuff for burns. Hopefully that will help the nerves.” Ethan started pulling out our food. Setting a chicken salad in front of me, he had a double bacon cheeseburger. “I told him you wouldn’t want a salad.” Vincent looked at my food. “That’s the difference between a mate and a brother.” Tak

“CHRISTIAN!” I yelled back. He laughed, as that was our thing. Ethan set me down when we got to the top. Christian instantly wrapped his arms around my legs. “I missed you! You are getting so tall!” “Hey, sis.” Vincent walked up to me with his arm out. With my belly, I could only do a side hug these days.“How is my little nephew doing?” Vincent shook Ethan’s hand. “Very happy where he is at.” Vincent has been a little of a recluse this last year. Finding out the truth, being a full-time day and looking for a beta has kept him from coming around as often. Fortuantly, everyone has sympathized with him. They have really accepted him into our friend’s group. However, Roxie and Zoey are on a kick to find him a mate. Vincent game me a smile and scooped Christian up. “Let’s go inside or we will miss the party.” Ethan held the door for us before quickly resuming his spot next to me. The moment we walked in, my breath was caught in my throat. It was just like I imagined it to be. A larg

1 year later“Grace! We got to go! Everyone is waiting for us!” Ethan was standing at our bedroom door. “I’m COMING!” I growled back. My swollen belly was ready to pop at any moment. Our little baby boy was loving kicking his mother in the lungs so much that he refused to leave. “I can only move so fast!” “You are the most beautiful pregnant person…ever.” Ethan smiled at me as I walked out of the bedroom. The stretchy black evening gown clung to my body, really making my stomach look much skinner than I felt. From the back, you would never know I was pregnant, which confused me. My belly was very round, like a ball. “This is all your fault.” Rolling my eyes at him, I couldn’t help the smile that spread across my face. Ethan walked over and gave me his arm. “Thank you.” “Just think…” Ethan patted my hand. “…. you get to do this many more times!” Looking up and glaring at him, “I will kick you in the nuts and end all of that.” Ethan laughed at me. I doubt anything would hurt his m

By the time we made it to the club, I had taken a few more shots, and the buzz was going. The club was bouncing. Music could be heard from outside. There was a line down the sidewalk and neon lights were flashing all around. This was the vibe that I was hoping for. “Ethan, I want to check on the computers. With everyone here, I haven’t actually got to see it yet and I want to check it.” I had to shout since the music was so loud and we weren’t even inside. “Grace, you are a little drunk….” Ethan raised his eyebrows at me. “Please? I’m not going to touch it. Just want to make sure it’s okay.” Grabbing his arm, I put on my most pathetic face I could.” “Fine…” Ethan rolled his eyes, but smirked. Wrapping his arm around me, he lead the way inside. “Callie, get everyone situated with drinks. We will catch up.” Ethan instantly lead me away to his office. It was more packed than I had ever seen it. Granted, I had only been here like three times, but this was packed. More than once, we g

“What do you have that is the best with crab?” Theresa thought for a moment. “Try the crab trio. There are three different ways crab is cooked. I think one is the crab alfrado, a mushroom stuffed crab and just steamed crab legs with a pepper, garlic butter to dip it in.” “That sounds perfect.” “Great. Would you like your legs already de-shelled?” “Yes, please.” I said right as the guys came back. “I’ll have a crab cake, please.” Jolene smiled at Theresa. Theresa returned the smile. “For you two?” She looked at them. “Seafood fried roll.” Ethan sighed and downed his drink. “I got another round coming.” She said instantly. Ethan nodded and put his arm back around me. “What did Vincent say?” I asked Ethan in the mind-link, so I didn’t hear what Nox, Stella or Rif ordered. “Well, turns out they were all people that went missing states away. None were from the same state, but they were all scholars in hacking or something cyber. Vincent thinks Zach or Derek had placed them there

Just as Ethan stood up, we arrived at the restaurant. I couldn’t help the sly smile that spread across my face before bitting my lower lip. “Let’s go,” Ethan said before clearing his throat. He gave me a little nudge to get off the bus. “Where are we?” I asked as I stepped off. Ethan was quick behind me, wrapping his arm around my waist. “This is one I have wanted to bring you to since I met you. It’s a very upscale seafood place. I know your favorite food is crab and I think they will have what you want here.” Ethan smiled down at me.“I love this place!” Callie squealed. “Their lobster is absolutely amazing!” “I’ve never been here!” Zoey grabbed Leo’s hand, and they started the train to the front doors. “We have a reservation. It’s under Boone.” Callie yelled from the back. By the time we walked in, the hostess walked off from the front. Zoey turned and smiled at us. I couldn’t help but look around. There was a massive sword fish mounted on the wall. The lighting was low, dark

After the house burnt down, we had to transport everyone back to their respected packs. However, all of our friends had to come back one last time to our pack and gather their belongings. Since they were already here, we had one last night together. Ethan set up a romanic evening that ended with everyone at the club for a night of dancing. All the girls were in my bedroom getting dressed. Callie had on a champain squence colored dress. It volumized her breast with a completely open back and only strings tolding it up. Her ass was about to hang out, but she looks amazing.Zoey had on a similar colored dress, but the top was more of a bra. Her stomach was open to a skirt that sinched at the side. Roxie was wearing a scarlett red dress. With long sleeves, the top was just enough fabric to cover her tits. It was an open stomach, but one side went down to a skirt that went to her calf. The other side had a slit that went to her hip, completely exposing her very toned legs. Stella was wea

Vincent turned and looked at us. “Let’s go home.” He whispered and walked past us. Christian was clinging to Vincent like his life depended on it. “Keep your eyes closed, bud.” He said as he walked out of the house. We all followed him. The battle was over and our warriors were collecting the dead. In the front was Derek’s body, Zach and Adaline. There was a rather large pile of men off to the side and a more respectible line of men that were ours. Leo was barking order with Damon, but Stella caught my attention. She was standing over Derek’s body with tears running down her face. Walking out of Ethan’s arms, I came up to Stella. She met my eyes before looking down again. “W-what happened?” I hesitated before speaking. I wasn’t sure how this was going to impact our friendship. Though it had already been rocky as it was. “Grace?” Rif walked up behind Stella. Putting a hand around his waist, he nodded. “Whatever it is, just tell us.” I knew I had everyone’s attention at this point.

Grabbing a lock of hair, I twisted it in my fingers. “You know Vincent, she used Derek’s weakness and let him believe for three years that he betrayed you.” Vincent’s hand wrapped around his neck. He squeezed hard enough to make her hurt but not enough to stop the breathing. “What should I do? Kill her or put her in my dungeon to years’ worth of torture?” “I’m sorry! I can turn my life around and be the mother that Christian deserves. I only ever wanted to be a mate to you.” She batted her eyelashes at Vincent. His grip tightened around her neck. “Nothing I do will be enough. It won’t be enough to vengue Derek, my dad or the years of head games you put on our son that I’ll have to fix.” Tighter, he squeezed until his hand started shaking. “I regret ever sleeping with you, ever touching you, or even meeting you. The only good thing in my life is Christian. I’m going to take your body and make a mockery of it. You will be an example of what it means to cross me. I’m more powerful than
Secrets of the Luna Chapter 293
Ethan, Vincent, and I just stared at her with our mouths hanging open. “Derek thought he betrayed Vincent. He did everything to keep Vincent out of danger and keep his kid safe and you were playing him.” My anger was rising as her words sank in. “You let Derek live with this weight on him for years.” Adaline shrugged. “Who is Derek to me?” She mirrored those words, knowing it was going to get under my skin. “Now, my child is an heir to not only the mafia family, but to a very powerful wolf pack and a blood relative to a very profitable security business.”“You never wanted me to create a program. All this was a lie to get the three of us here.” The truth came crashing down on me.Marco pointed his gun at me. “You are a very hard person to get ahold of. I told Zach to kidnap you by any means needed. He almost got you fucking killed. I’m happy you survived, but yes, however, Ethan was only part of it because he mated to you. I just wanted Vincent and you.” “Your dad was incredibly ann
