All Chapters of The Luna's Family Secret: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

RIEKAWhen Alpha Leon admitted that his cousin called him from the US, I just knew that this was the break we needed to learn more about the legend surrounding my family. I hoped that the alpha would be willing to share more details about the conversation he had with his cousin during the last phone call, but my heart also broke for him, and I was afraid to press him for information.“How was he when he called?” I questioned hesitantly. “Was he well?”Alpha Leon sighed, “He sounded happy, but I could sense a tension in him, like he was holding himself on a tight leash…”The alpha trailed off and we waited patiently to see if he would continue.‘Did your aunt Meri ever say anything about meeting someone?’ Aleksandr asked me through the mind-link.‘Not that I can recall, but there was a time shortly before her death when she seemed happier… Whenever my parents would ask her about it, she always responded that it was just because work was going really well.’Thinking back to those l

RIEKAThe food they prepared was incredible. I didn’t know what the dishes were, but they all tasted amazing. Once my stomach was satisfied, I realized that I felt less on edge and suspicious of Alpha Leon and Luna Imogen. A few more pack members ended up coming back to the packhouse and everything started to feel a bit more normal.After meeting a few ranked wolves and several pack members Luna Imogen showed us to our rooms so we could rest after our long day of travel. Although I felt exhausted, I wasn’t actually sleepy.Aleksandr and I both showered and then dressed. If we were going to be stuck here a couple of day, we’d have plenty of time alone, and I really was exhausted. After dressing in my warmest clothes, I found a thick blanket to wrap myself in while he went to the pack house library to see if he could find any helpful books for us to review while we’re stuck here.Unsure what to do with myself, I sat on the sofa looking out the window. The snow was no longer comin

RIEKA Despite my prayers and pleading for restful sleep, the dreams returned. I have no idea how long I slept before they invaded my mind, but it was one after another. Whenever the dream would change from one scene to another it was as if the world did a quick spin on an unnatural angle and way too fast. The constant shifting almost made me feel nauseous. In the first dream, we were all back home at the Silver Eclipse Pack. It was comfortable and we were happy. Dustin and Drea were there with little Link, but he wasn’t so little anymore. He was crawling around and cooing at everyone. Aria and Eden were fawning over him and trying to make him laugh. Ace and Calvin were busy with their own wrestling game across the living room. Aleksandr and I were seated together on the sofa, and as I looked around the room smiling, I noticed that Lis was missing. I turned to my husband to ask where his mother was, but the room was suddenly empty. Jumping from my seat, I began calling out

ALEKSANDROnce the spell had been lifted, I let my nose lead me back to the pack house. I could smell the trail back clearly, but for some reason it was taking longer than it should have to return.It felt like there were eyes on me, but every time I looked around, the forest was peaceful and calm. No sound, no movement, not even a hint of the creatures who dwell in the forest. Something about that didn’t sit right with me. It shouldn’t be this quiet.I stopped running and decided to nudge at my mate’s mind to see if she was awake, but I hit a wall. Was she blocking me? I pushed harder, but the wall was too strong. Something is wrong. Rieka would never block me from her mind, but even if she felt like she needed to for some reason, she wouldn’t be strong enough to keep me out if I pushed.Looking around the forest again, I noticed some other things that were off. The position of the stars hadn’t changed. I’ve been out here for a few hours, and the stars should have moved by

RIEKA The information in this book was terrifying. Apparently, Jacinda inherited powers from both of her parents, allowing her to project images into your mind, seduce anyone with her words and touch, and cast spells with the greatest of ease. She was also a seer who could interpret the past and predict the future with far more accuracy than had ever been recorded in history. Everything in the book matched what Luna Imogen had told me about Jacinda not coming to the pack lands very often, but it was also clear that she was a very powerful being who had been rejected by everyone except her own mother. A part of me felt compassion for her. How does someone survive alone, knowing that everyone hates you and fears you, and the one person who didn’t is gone? For most people, losing a loved one is hard, but it gets easier to cope over time. How different is the grieving process when you have no one else? My heart went out to her, but a bigger part of me, the part that missed my husb
