The Luna's Second Chance Mate The nerve
Chapter 14Kaden's POVI was squatting behind one of my favorite trees in the woods, patiently waiting for my prey to come out. It was a tall deer with enchanting eyes, I had sworn it wouldn't escape my sight. But it did, and I was determined to catch it. It also had a peculiar scent, as if it had been infused with something I couldn't make sense of yet.But that wasn't the only reason I was here. I needed to put an end to the mockery of that bastard and his pack. Seeing as he was a fool with nine lives, I knew it would take more than the same old attack to destroy them once and for all.It was an early afternoon, but the sun rays had been effectively blocked out by the canopy of branches and leaves formed by the tall trees. I heard soft rustling and I ducked out quickly, drawing out an arrow from the rack behind me and I shot it immediately. There was a loud thud that followed and a loud clap behind me.I spun around with yet another arrow in my bow before pulling it down when I saw
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Lock her up
Chapter 15Larissa's POVThe dish in my hands slipped yet again, falling into the sink. I was lucky this time, it didn't crash to the marbled floors. Else I would receive an earful from Gwendoline about breaking dishes for one week in a row. I couldn't help but remember the pale faced woman that day. She looked like a shadow of the life I once had; richly dressed with smoothened skin that looked like she didn't even have claws or anything. But she was far from likeable, and I was even more annoyed that I couldn't get the image of her hands on his skin out of my head.He'd made it so damn clear that he would never accept me as his mate, no matter how I chose to think about it. He would not care if I died now, as long as I took care of his son. I gripped the sink at the thought of a second rejection. Maybe it would be best I left him alone and simply work like he wanted me to.His crude actions towards me were more than a thousand confirmations, but it was hurtful nonetheless. The woma
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Guilty mind
Chapter 16Kaden's POV The faint drops of rain hitting my window sill was enough to pry me awake from my drowsiness, as sleep seemed to have eluded me tonight. The lights were turned off, yet I could make out even the tiniest details in my study. The bookshelf stood like its own force towering above every other piece of furniture in the study, and the pile on the desk appeared like its own monstrousity. I rose my head from my makeshift pillow, staring off at the window that was draped with thin white curtains. The soft glow of the moon would have made it more beautiful. Perhaps as beautiful as the first night spent in Amaya's arms.The thought of that woman gave me the ick, but what disturbed me more was Larissa's tear filled expression. It pissed me to no end when my wolf had suddenly gone quiet after locking her up to solitude. She deserved it, everything she was getting. The heavens needed me to met out a befitting punishment for such a cheat, so why wouldn't my wolf simply comply
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Off the hook
Chapter 17Larissa's POVIt was my fault that he had a fever. If only I hadn't been so carried away playing in the rain, he would never had gotten sick. Even when he had me locked up, it was surprising that he wasn't well taken care of. It looked like no one gave him a hot shower. I half expected for the alpha to say something mean yet again, but he said nothing. Instead he stood there in his sweats and with both arms folded, watching my every move while Gwen walked out of the room, leaving it to an awkward silence. I turned my attention back to Declan, running my fingers through his hair. Truly, it reminded me of honey. Except that his climbing temperature worried me."I don't think that's necessary." He finally spoke up, and I could pick up the grogginess in his usually demeaning tone. I looked back at him, shaking my head quickly but he clicked his tongue at me. "Take him to Annalise instead. She would be able to take care of him and give some medication."'You should have thought
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Worse situations
Chapter 18Larissa's POV It has been two days since Declan's fever. Contrary to the toddler that had been whimpering and crying that night, the one who happily followed me to kindergarten was far from ill. He was skipping all the way, I couldn't contain my own happiness seeing him as active as ever.I drew the broom in my hands across the marbled floors in the living area that afternoon, smiling to myself. Although I couldn't see it, the sun must have been shining overhead. The skies from the open window blinds were a pale yellow that gave the weather some radiance. If the sun wasn't so hot, it would have been the perfect weather to have a pool party with my family. When I had one.Alpha Kaden hadn't stepped out of his room all day. His breakfast still sat on the dinning table, but I could care less. I'd asked Gwen to take care of it for me. I didn't want to cook for such a bigoted jerk, but I couldn't say the same about his obsession with cleanliness. He could throw me out for real
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Done listening
Chapter 19Kaden’s POV“No, no! I’m done listening to your bullshit! If you don’t have any dignity left, I have! So shut the fuck up!”I picked up a pillow, angrily tossing it across the room till it smacked the door to the closet. I was mad, no, I was infuriated to the point where I simply wanted to rip out my wolf and shove it down the toilet. I needed him to just shut up for a minute and listen to what I had to say. But no, the sounds were threatening to drown out my sanity.Admit it, Kaden. You’re wrong about her.“Fuck off.” I snarled back, briskly walking to where the dresser stood idly. I gripped the edges of the exotic wooden desk, trying to steady my breathing. I could hear her, even when she was several feet away from me. I hated the fact that I could hear it no matter how much I’d covered my ears. I could hear her soft sobs, somehow I could feel her curled up and muttering my name and I hated it. My wolf was groaning, ever since I’d locked her up. Now I thought of it, she
The Luna's Second Chance Mate My apologies
Chapter 20Larissa’s POVHis stare could cut through ice. Jackson, who’d been so well put together rose to his feet awkwardly, then bowing deep in respect. I looked away, I wasn’t in the mood to deal with him at the moment. His eyes seemed to be trailing my movement with the same stare, making me the most uncomfortable in the already small cell the size of a less than standard bathroom.“My apologies, my Lord.” Jackson spoke out with his back facing me. I couldn’t see his expression, but his muscles were tense. The chestnut-haired man shifted his attention to me for a second before returning to Jackson. It was both amazing and irritating how he could weave through expressions; one minute he was staring, the next minute he was glaring and scowling.“It is in your best interest that you never let this happen again. Wait outside.” He stated, his tone completely devoid of emotion. Jackson nodded immediately and walked quickly out of the room, not even sparing me a glance.The alpha approa
The Luna's Second Chance Mate Lines of attraction
Chapter 21Kaden's POV The litter on my desk looked like a pile of black and white ink morphing into one another, with some lying idly on the table and a few stacked in envelopes or files. I stared at the monitor screen blankly, watching the blues and reds become an ugly color that irritated me to no end. Slowly, I pushed the keyboard further from the edge of the table and recoiled into the executive chair. Everything bothered me, so much that I couldn't focus on one thing at a time. Mostly because I hadn't heard from the Gemini in days, it was getting frustrating. I glanced up at the wall clock that stood just above the door frame and felt the frown lines form on my forehead. It was barely 3pm, yet it felt like I'd been sitting there for a million hours.I brought my index fingers to my temples, rubbing in circular motions. As if on cue, there was a small ring on my table coming from my phone. I picked up the phone, glancing at the caller ID. It was Jacob. It didn’t surprise me h

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
