The Betrayed Luna Chapter 20 : So Domestic
*Delilah*I sat with my eyes closed, breathing slowly through my nose. I tried to tune out the sound of Lenora’s breathing, the click of the air as it kicked on. When I started learning from her, I was expecting to do physical training. But apparently, having these powers had nothing to do with physical prowess. My powers were in my mind. The powers of Lunas were varied, from prophetic dreams, like I had, to being able to sense emotions.“You’re thinking too much,” Lenora said softly. I sighed and opened my eyes. She sat with her legs crossed and tucked under her body, her eyes closed. Her long, dark brown hair fell in a single braid down her back, specs of gray peppering it. She had a kind face, and it was easy to feel at ease with her.“How are you so good at this? Your eyes aren’t even open, and you can tell I’m not concentrating.”She opened her eyes and looked at me, her watery-blue depths filled with understanding. “Your energy never lies, Delilah.”I threw my
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 21 : Family Ties
*Delilah*“Pizza’s here!” Andrew yelled from the open door. “Yay!” the kids yelled, running at the door like they hadn’t eaten in a year. I smiled at that and followed them in, walking past Andrew and trying not to breathe in the scent of him. We went to the dining room and sat in our normal seats. Andrew’s parents were out doing something together that night, so it was just us. Andrew gave the kids their pizza as I got a piece of the supreme. It smelled so good, and I was starving.The kids were hungry too because they instantly started eating, barely taking time to breathe. I ate my pizza, trying to keep my mind from wandering back to the topic of Andrew and me. We weren’t anything, just two parents, co-parenting to the best of our abilities.She watched as the kids talked to him animatedly, and his eyes never left them when they spoke to him. He liked them, and they liked him.I started to realize that I didn’t hate him either, not anymore. He was young when he’d
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 22 : Threats from Within and Without
*Andrew*I stared between them. They were friends; she’d hugged him. How could this be?Before I could ask, Jason said, “I need to go shower. I’ll catch up with you guys soon. Good to see you, Del.”“You too,” she said, smiling at him.I sat back down before asking, “So, you guys are friends?”“Yeah, we met after I moved. I didn’t even know he was from here. He never told me his last name, and I didn’t tell him mine.” Delilah shrugged and continued eating her fruit.“Small world, huh?” I said, hoping my voice didn’t reveal the shock I felt. She chuckled, “Yeah, it really is.”I sighed, not wanting to know any more details for the moment. I drank my coffee and looked at her. She was as beautiful as she’d always been. Her hair was in a messy bun and she was still in her pajamas, but I didn’t care. I’d love her no matter what she looked like.I hated that I’d missed out on the last five years with her and our children. I’d thought of her every single day. Never once
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 23 : Secrets and Pack Meetings
*Delilah*I walked away from Andrew, guilt rolling in my stomach. I saw the hurt look in his eyes when I told him I was going to hang out with Jason. The last thing I wanted was to come between them. They were brothers, after all.I couldn’t believe that either. I met Jason years ago, and I never saw the resemblance. But now, it was undeniable. I walked into the en suite and found Jason rolling on the floor with Cody and Flora, while Kyle laughed at them all. “I’m not sure this is a fair fight, guys,” I said, smiling at them as I closed the door behind me. Jason smiled up at me, and the kids took the opportunity to jump on him. “Unfair!” he said, pretending he couldn’t get up. Flora and Cody laughed together. They were quite the tag team.“Okay, okay. Let him up, please. You guys want to go outside and have a snack?”All three jumped at the chance and said, “Yeah!”Despite spending so much time at the park already, I knew they needed to run off their energy. Th
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 24 : Rivals and Brothers
*Andrew*I tried to hide my anger from Delilah, but I was fairly certain she noticed. The look on her face made me regret my reaction instantly, but I couldn’t stop it. It was hard enough to see how close they were, how close he was to my kids. But hearing that he knew who she was, who they must’ve been, and keeping it from me was too much. I fixed my face with a neutral expression and stopped asking questions. Delilah stayed quiet too, focusing on the kids to try to distract herself from the tension that was clearly hanging in the air.My dad walked in then and cleared his throat. “Andrew, the meeting starts in an hour. Don’t be late. You too, Jason.”He smiled at Delilah and ruffled the boys’ hair before planting a kiss on Flora’s head and walking away.“The meeting is today?” Delilah asked. I nodded. “The first of many we have scheduled for this week. We have a lot to discuss.”She nodded. “Should we stay anywhere specific during the meetings? Seems like a lot of
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 25 : Intruders Everywhere
*Delilah*I sat outside watching the kids running around and squealing in delight. They were so close and I loved that for them. Seeing them together, I couldn’t help but think about my own sister, or stepsister, anyway. Kendra and I had played like this as kids. I sighed, wondering where it all went wrong. Flora chased Kyle and Cody, her hands raised like she was a monster. I smiled to myself, happy for the moment. I never imagined my life turning out like this. I’d run away, hoping to leave everyone behind. But I had to admit, I was actually glad to be back. It was hard to live alone, surrounded by a pack that I wasn’t a part of. I was a rogue wolf during that entire time. They knew I wasn’t from there, and they accepted that I lived there, probably because I was a single mom, but they didn’t bring me into their pack. I thought I’d be happier away from the pack that hated me, but they were my pack. And even when I wasn’t there, the pack had come to find me, apparentl
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 26 : First Date
*Delilah*It had been a few days since the attack, during which Andrew checked on us about three times his normal rate. The Travis pack Alpha assured Andrew and his father they had nothing to do with it. I didn’t know what to believe, and I’d never met him, but it seemed insane to attempt to kidnap the children of the Alpha you’re trying to ally yourself with.Andrew thought that the Carter pack had snuck in some wolves with the Travis pack to break away at the first opportune time. He couldn’t figure out why they wanted our kids though, and I couldn’t either. The first night after the attack, I woke with a start, breathing hard and covered in sweat after dreaming of them being kidnapped. I’d thought about it since the nightmares had begun again more than I thought about anything else. Was this dream I’d always had a Luna’s premonition, or just a dream developed from fear?I couldn’t be sure, but I was scared just the same. I didn’t let the kids out of my sight unless I was sh
The Betrayed Luna Chapter 27 : Saying Goodbye
*Andrew*I walked away and couldn’t keep the smile off my face. I also couldn't stop thinking about kissing Delilah. Goddess, I wanted her.I walked through the foyer by the front door and saw the kitchen light on. I’d thought everyone was in bed, so I walked toward the light, looking to see who was still up.Jason leaned against the counter, drinking a glass of chocolate milk. I chuckled seeing this as I walked into the kitchen.“Some things never change, huh?” I said, leaning against the counter opposite him.He laughed before draining the last of his drink. He rinsed the glass and then set it in the sink.“Chocolate milk will always be good.”I nodded. “You’re right about that.”“You’ll be happy to know, I’ve been designated for an assignment, away from here.”I looked at him closely. “What do you mean?”“Dad wants me to go with the Travis pack, to be a set of eyes on the ground to confirm what they’re telling us after what happened during the meeting. We can’t b
