All Chapters of The Broken Luna: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Axton My mouth fell open in surprise as I edged closer to the driveway where Elias and the warriors from Desert Canines had gathered under a huge mango tree with ripe fruits waiting to be plucked. They looked tired and the dirty khaki color of their uniform was a stark contrast to the brighter colors of the Wild Fangs warriors. "Elias, you silly ass. What the hell are you doing here?" Elias laughed infectiously and I ruffled his forehead before hugging him and waving at the warriors. "I can't believe you guys are here." "Did you think we'd sit back and watch our alpha head to a strange land and fight? We are doing our responsibility of taking care of you." I swallowed my laughter, snorting instead. "But I never asked you to come. Dakota and I can handle this on our own." Elias tipped his head to the side, narrowing his eyes with no trace of annoyance on his face. "We took an almost twenty-hour train here, and we're not about to go back without satisfying ourselves with the

Dakota The warriors from both packs were getting ready, loading their ammunition with guns, swords, and several other weapons. Over thirty vans were parked in a big, open field, with the head warrior already at the door giving out instructions and pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back. I was surrounded by strong, fearless fighters, ready to help me capture Erika, but the recent events of how she outsmarted me made me doubt. Scratch that. I was terrified. So terrified that I felt dizzy. I looked around trying to remember my battle strategy, but everything seemed blurry. It wasn’t my fight. Not anymore. It was for Ivan's revenge, for my pack, for Sara. The warriors strategized, discussing the mission carefully and stopping where we'd wait for Erika’s signal to attack. We split into four parts, with Axton, Elias and I traveling together. "Sara threatened me to never return home until you are safe. My pregnant wife is willing to become a single mother for your

Dakota I was confused about whether to break the magic box or not to break it. If I broke it, Erika would kill Axton, and if I didn't, she'd kill us all and continue with her evil. Erika's sinister grin plastered across her face, holding Axton captive with a sword pressed against his side. My thoughts froze and I became disoriented with a loud, critical inner voice yelling at me to break it. My breaths became short and fast due to the tightness in my chest. "Dakota, break the damn box!" Axton cried. "Set us free!" I side-glimpsed Axton. He begged me with his eyes but the dagger's blade glimmered with an intense, searing light with vibrant orange flame licking along the edges. Axton had been poisoned before and he almost lost his life. I was between crossroads, the devil, and the deep blue sea. "Do it, baby!" His eyes pleaded with me, going frantic as he desperately called my name. His dead body lying on the floor flashed in my mind and I winced. "Shut up, you idiot!" Erika

Dakota I sat by Axton's bedside in the quiet room, the master bedroom upstairs. He was still very weak and unable to walk, only fed on liquids. "How's your leg?" I asked him, kissing his forehead. "Do you need me to give you a massage?" "No," he broke into an easy smile. "Just give me some of the broth and make it warm. It's the only thing I can stomach for now." "Okay, my love," I whispered, propping up his pillows and heading downstairs to the kitchen. I returned later with the broth, urging him to drink. "My mouth tastes like shit," he grimaced, and I helped him to the bathroom to brush his teeth. "That bastard must be so stunned that she's languishing in the pack's dungeon," Axton started to say. "I don't even want to talk about her. She's bad news," I said, staring at my staff of authority placed on top of the dresser, ironically in the same place where I kept it before it got stolen. "Tell me how you feel," Axton said, making me lie beside him. "I feel relieved, but I d

Axton The train station's bustle faded away, and my men and I disembarked, heading towards the forest. All through the journey, I couldn't stop thinking about what Dakota said about Xavier. If he'd truly helped her, maybe she had a point. Also, I wouldn't lie that I was okay with his punishment. He was a victim of circumstance, and my dad's maltreatment molded him into who he eventually became. I was torn between letting things remain as they were and going to find him. I stopped moving, browsing Elias's curiosity. "Are you alright?" he asked me. "There's someone I need to find. You and the Warriors can go along. I'll catch up with you." Elias furrowed his brow as he stared at me. "Axton. I can't leave you all by yourself. You're still recovering. Just tell me who you're going to see." I remained silent for a moment, my jaw clenched. Then I took a deep breath. "Fine, you can come with me if you want." "Go ahead, continue to the pack. Elias and I have something to attend to in t
