The Luna's Second Chance Mate Just leave
Chapter 29Kaden’s POV“I strongly suggest that they be withdrawn from our partnership for breach of contract.” Jackson spoke up, rising to his feet and earning loud murmurs that echoed across the board room. The room itself was wide enough to be a conference room, fully air conditioned as if that would ease the thick tension in the room. The U-shaped table housed my board of directors, men of all ages restricted to being werewolves who were now staring at Jackson who stood by my right hand. His hands rested on a thick black file on the table, and his expression lacked the warmth or silliness that it occasionally held.“But how? We were not notified of their involvement in shady business.” One of the men countered, clearing his throat. He brought a hand to loosen his necktie, nodding furiously in anticipation that the other gullible idiots in the room will agree with him.“They sold our information for money. They even staged an attack on the CEO.” Hunter continued with his composed
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Curfew
Chapter 30Larissa’s POVThe look of disappointment expressly written on his face still lingered like some bitter aftertaste in my mouth, even after two weeks. He looked pained when I stopped us from crossing that line. What was I even saying? Somehow, we already crossed that line a long time ago. We both just didn’t realize it. Maybe I did, but it was clear he did not.I still did not understand his actions. We’d almost slept together, but he pushed me away after I stopped us albeit non-verbally. His body language said it all. He hasn’t even spoken to me since then, if he was ever in the mansion at all. I picked up myself from the bed and took small strides to the single window in the room, deliberately ignoring the small whines of the toddler in my bed. Pushing the curtains open, I stared at the clouds that had formed some pretty shapes in the sky. They appeared heavy and were effectively blocking out the sun from showering the earth with light. Instead, what remained was the fami
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Seized
Chapter 31Kaden’s POV“Secure all of their pressure points.” I instructed, watching the men before me bow in response and as a pledge of allegiance. “The entrance. Survey the back area for opposition as well. And report back to me once that is cleared up.”They nodded again, stealthily walking towards the woods that surrounded the pack house. I smiled to myself before turning to look at them stronger men who had come with me. “Jacob, you go with them and make sure everything goes as planned. Joshua, Jackson and Hunter, you’re coming with me. This is going to be one bloody visit.”They chorused in response and Jacob flashed me a small smirk before strapping his bow tightly across his back. I couldn’t see it, but I knew. Jacob would never go into battle with one weapon. He reminded me of myself, take them out when they least expect it. It was more dignifying than ambushing them because they knew they were in danger. The dangerous thing was that they didn’t know how. Fools like them k
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Catching feelings
Chapter 32Larissa’s POVI heard the front gate rustle open from Declan’s room where I was sitting on the marbled floors, softly rocking the toddler to sleep and struggling to control my own agitation. The alpha has been gone for two days already, even the clouds outside had the appearance of impending doom. The toddler wriggled in my arms, slowly opening his eyes at the sudden wave of noise that hit the room from the living room. Startled, I ran my hands through my hair to keep him asleep before taking away the wooden knife in his hands and placing him on the bed.I rose to my feet, still confused by the ruckus and pattered to the door. I pulled it open and my eyes narrowed at the sight. The guards that had been loitering upstairs and wouldn’t even give me some room to breathe were now nowhere in sight. Instead, I was greeted by a coldness that was reminiscent of regular rainy days. There was nobody around, but I could hear the new-found boisterousness that engulfed the living roo
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Hurting
Chapter 33Larissa’s POVEven without feeling all over at my under eyes, I could tell that they were swollen. It even took so much will power to force myself to continue my chores and take care of Declan like nothing was happening in the first place. And it was getting tiring; ever since that day, I’d taken to my bed at any opportunity I found. It was hurting too much, so much that it felt like a chainsaw gutting me out every day.I couldn’t get the image of his expression that day out of my head. I hated that I thought of him so much. I hated that my happiness, however little had begun to dwell on his own affirmations. Fuck, why did I have to care in the first place? He would never see me for who I was. He would never love me; I was merely here to take care of his son as he saw fit. He must think my feelings are a plaything, tsk.Standing there, I felt stupid all over again. How could I have let this happen once again? I wanted to bring myself to reject him once and for all, I coul
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Tingles
Chapter 34Kaden’s POVMy discomfort worked its way right into night time. I stood in the shower, loving the delicious tingles that traveled down my spine from the odd temperature of the water. Any other person would have complained that the water was cold enough to give frostbites in spring, but I thought otherwise. It was currently the only thing that could take me away from the bugging insanity that had become Larissa.I finally turned off the shower head, swiping off the white towel from the curtains before wrapping it around my torso. I climbed out of the shower, shaking my head slowly to rid my hair of excess water before walking backing to my room. I threw some comfortable clothes on and turned in the direction of my bed, but my eyes lingered on the spot she’d laid that evening she’d yelled at me. I couldn’t read what her eyes pleaded that day, but her words were just as gut wrenching. Closing my eyes, I let out a sigh and plopped onto the bed and opened my eyes again to sta
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Help me
Chapter 35Larissa’s POVI picked up the last piece of clothing from Declan’s bed while the toddler sat quietly by the small table in his room, playing with his toy soldiers he’d introduced me to once. He looked engrossed in what he was doing, which was a good thing because I wasn’t anywhere near the mood to chase him around for him to stay put. His father was literally forcing me to have to be in the same space as them both. Declan, I could tolerate because the toddler had grown to be a part of me. His standoffish father…not so much. How insensitive could he be?I was only going there because of Declan. If not, I’d rather face death a thousand times than be locked away somewhere with his father. Besides, the boy was already dressed up and eager to go with me. Folding up the onesie in my hands, I tossed it into the yellow duffel back that sat with me in the bed and zipped it up before patting off a small speck of dust that had found its way onto the bag.“Declan dear, come here.” I
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Rescue
Chapter 36Kaden's POV Cold shivers ran down my spine almost as soon as Declan had handed me one of his wooden knives. I could feel it past my gut, it was almost as though I could hear my name. The feeling was unfamiliar and made me uneasy. I rose to my feet immediately, glancing out the window. There was nothing there, but I still didn't feel comfortable. My instincts were always right, and the first thing I guessed was that there was a rival cunt on my tail. Perhaps they'd followed us all the way here. If it was true, then they were messing with the wrong wolf.I looked back at Declan who'd gotten himself busy when I had stood up the first time. They'd probably come after him first. I needed to make sure he was safe. I tapped at his shoulders before scooping him up in one swift movement and made my way to his room. I set him down quickly on the single bed and shut the window blinds, leaving only the electrical lights on to illuminate the room before walking back to the bed. Crou

The Luna's Second Chance Mate The end
Chapter 64Kaden's POVThe room was silent as Larissa and I stood hand in hand, watching Amaya sign the divorce papers in the corner of the study. Larissa's hand was placed over mine, caressing softly as we waited. Soon, Amaya flipped through the last page and then stood. She walked in our direction tentatively and then handed me the papers. When she looked up at me, an apologetic look was apparent in her eyes. I took the papers from her and looked through them to make sure. Everything was intact. Larissa smiled gently and rubbed my arm. It had been two weeks since the huge battle. Larissa had stayed by my side every day until the gunshot wound healed. A few days after that, Amaya came to see me. I was so mad that I had the guards send her away. But she kept coming anyway, begging for a chance. Larissa convinced me to see her finally and it turned out that she was here to sign the papers. I had insisted Larissa be here because it was an important moment for the both of us. "I'm sorr
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Be careful
Chapter 63Kaden's POVI was right. Infiltrating the Tokenmoon hideout was as easy as we anticipated because they had indeed prepared to attack at dawn. The trip took us exactly forty minutes, being a little far from Griffinhowl mansion, but we got there in good time. The whole time I continued to repeat a prayer in my mind, pleading with the moon goddess to keep my son and Larissa safe. I prayed neither of them had been harmed in any way, and I tried to keep my faith strong no matter how helpless I felt. As soon as we arrived, I tossed aside all the doubt and fear in my mind and prepared for battle. This was not the time to lament and worry. It was the time to save my family and defeat that bastard once and for all.I turned to Hunter. "You know the plan. Scope through the building and destroy any weapons you can find so we can cut them off at the knees. Then meet us inside. We only have ten minutes tops before we are detected, so make it count."He gave a stiff bow and moved closer
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Coward
Chapter 62Kaden's POVI could not sleep. I was tossing around my bed restlessly, thoughts filling my head. How could I when I had no idea of the whereabouts of my son? My only son. I was going mad with worry, different scenarios of the condition he was in flashing through my head. I hated how powerless I felt in this situation. I had tried to follow his scent, but his kidnapper had taken care of that somehow and made it impossible. My best bet now was to find that bastard's hideout, but that too was proving difficult. I knew Stefan Tokenmoon had done it on purpose. He had intentionally made it difficult for me to find his hideout so that by the time I was close, he would take us by surprise and attack.Bloody coward. I would make sure he died a painful death by my hand. The thought filled me with so much hate and anger that I could not bear the thought of just lying down doing nothing. So I stood from my bed and made my way to the balcony. Everything that had happened in the past w
The Luna's Second Chance Mate On my knees
Chapter 61Larissa's POVBile filled my mouth as the guards escorted me inside the mansion I had lived in for the worst years of my life. I never thought I would ever return to this place, and even if it crossed my mind once, I wouldn't have believed it'd be under circumstances like this. I tried not to look at the walls I still recognized. They held too many bitter memories. I tried to keep my head blank as I was led inside a room and offered a seat. The guards left as soon as I was seated and I let my eyes dart around. They had probably gone off to inform Stefan of my arrival. Again, my hand drifted to my stomach and a wave of sadness hit me again. I never wanted things to turn out the way they did, but I had to save Declan. Even if it meant sacrificing myself for it. I stopped myself before I could become emotional again. I was here for business and nothing else. I needed to clear my head. As I waited, I wondered where Declan was hidden in this mansion. It would be impossible to
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Take me
Chapter 60Larissa's POVThe ringing in my ears intensified as I struggled to open my eyes. I could not remember the last time I ever felt so weak and tired. I groaned painfully as I tried to sit up. My bones were also hurting and I felt like I was burning up. I was having a fever? But why? I tried again to open my eyes to no avail. They were just too heavy. I took a deep breath, noticing that it hurt my chest when I tried to. All I knew was that I was laying in a bed. The room was silent and I couldn't sense the presence of anyone else so I assumed I was alone. My fingers moved over the sheets I was laying on and I turned my head to the side to get a whiff of anything at all that would tell me where I was. As I sniffed the air, I immediately recognized the scent. I was in Kaden's room. I could smell him all over. I had spent enough nights in this room to remember what it felt like.I took another deep breath and I tried to relax, but the thought of Kaden had already set me into an o
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Lost
Chapter 59Kaden's POVI frowned. What bad news could they be talking about? "What is it?" I asked, preparing myself mentally for whatever it turned out to be. Again, they exchanged looks. "After a lot of spying and questioning, we finally found the mystery pack that has had it out for Griffinhowl for months now."My breath caught and I stared on in surprise. Why did they look so somber, then? This was good news. So much had been going on that I forgot about that completely. This was great news. I knew the amount of torment we had been receiving from that godforsaken pack, and the fact that we had finally uncovered them was a huge step to defeating them once and for all. "And?" I asked, excited for the first time in a while. My senses were whirring with adrenaline and I wanted to jump right off to the location and destroy the whole lot of them. "Unfortunately, we couldn't find out the exact location of their pack. The pack members are scattered in so many different places. We belie
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Heartbroken
Chapter 58Larissa's POVI furiously swiped the tears out of my eyes as I hurried down the hall. My chest was tight and my heart was shattering into a million pieces. How could he do this to me? How could he betray me like this? Betrayal. It sounded so foreign when it was in relation with Kaden. It was not something I could associate him with. But after what I'd just seen, I realised it wasn't so far fetched after all. I ran. I ran like I could escape my reality if I got far enough. I wanted to stop. I wanted to scream. I wanted to fall to my knees and tear at my hair until I didn't feel this much pain anymore. But I couldn't. The image of Kaden and Amaya pressed together in a kiss continued to flash through my head no matter how many times I tried to block it out. Why would he do this to me? In a million years I would never have believed Kaden would willingly hurt me. It still felt like a dream. As I ran aimlessly, I instinctively pinched my own arm. Hard. I needed it to be a mista
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Get your hands off
Chapter 57Kaden's POVI stood in the corner of the playroom, my eyes narrowed and alert as I watched Amaya squat beside Declan and pinch his cheeks lightly. It had been four days since I first let her see him, and she had been here every single day since then, but I still had not gotten used to seeing her by his side. Every time she touched him, I had the overwhelming urge to jump across the room and take him away from her. But my legs stayed rooted to the floor. I continued to watch as she tried to make conversation with Declan, offering him the gift box she had brought along with her today. When Declan showed no interest in even touching the box, she took it upon herself to unwrap it. As expected, it was filled with toys. I watched with bated breath as Declan turned his attention back to the box. "You like toys, don't you, Deccy?"I nearly rolled my eyes at her nickname for him. Declan nodded, but made no move to pick any of them up. Instead he moved away and sat in one of his ti
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Tired
Chapter 56Larissa's POV"She's been here every single day this week. I can't keep turning her away, especially since she still has a legal right to visit him."I turned away from Kaden, shutting my eyes tightly in annoyance. Amaya had been a thorn in everyone's side with her relentless visits to the mansion and her demands to see her son. Every day Kaden turned her away, and on days where she proved adamant with the guards, Kaden had to go down there himself and throw her out. It always ended up in a sort of screaming match, and Amaya vowing to return the next day. It had been taking a toll on him, I could see it clearly. It was also taking a toll on me, it was taking a toll on the entire pack, Declan included. Because of her, a sort of gloom had descended over the pack, and everyone moved around, silent and listless. And it hurt me. I hated the screaming, the drama, every single thing. And I hated how it was affecting each and every one of us. Especially Declan. He was still so you
