All Chapters of MATES FOR THE SINGLE MOM LUNA: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Cassie’s POVAfter a brief conversation with Khan, I eventually managed to leave the flower shop. I was grateful for the opportunity to know this place, and for my boss, Dale. Though he could be a bit overwhelming at times, he was a kind vampire—a very unusual type of vampire, likely due to his hybrid nature."Ah, that Granny kicked me again," Dale complained as we walked down a crowded street in Claybourne City. I was still puzzled about how we had entered the hidden society."That gem or crystal you gave to the beggar isn’t just an ordinary gem, is it?" I asked."Exactly! It isn’t ordinary," Dale confirmed. "The gem contains a substantial amount of mana, along with a crystal-like substance that holds other precious items for trade." It seemed that the crystal was more than a mere trinket—it was a container for things like magic, weapons, gold, rare materials, or even living creatures and souls."That sounds illegal. How am I supposed to return to the flower shop?" I expressed my frus

Cassie’s POVHis question was not something I could answer easily. I had asked myself the same question many times. What was holding me back from embracing love again? Was this even love? Should I let go of him to start a new chapter in my life? I wasn’t sure, and the confusion weighed heavily on me.All my worries seemed to dissolve when Derek suddenly pulled me into a tight embrace. "Forget my question," he said, his voice sincere. "I’m not trying to force you or pressure you. I just want you to know that I’d rather have you by my side, even if that’s all I get. The darkest day of my life was when you left, and I thought I’d never see you again. Don’t worry about my question; I’ll wait as long as it takes. I’m not giving up; I want to show you how much I love you."His words gave me a sense of relief, like I could finally breathe again. I hoped he wouldn’t ask the same question soon, as I still needed time to sort out my feelings. There were larger concerns I needed to address.Despi

Dax’s POVMy name is Dax Wood, and I live in Claybourne City. I am a former military member with a mixed American and Mexican heritage. It had been less than a year since the traumatic event that reshaped my life, and the memories remain as vivid as if they were made of glass.I had understood the dangers inherent in my line of work. I swore an oath to protect my country, even if it meant sacrificing my own life. Yet, nothing prepared me for how different the reality would be from what I had envisioned.I was part of a special combat unit during a war, where the sounds of gunfire and explosions were a constant backdrop. I had assumed that my role involved more than just combat. But when I opened my eyes amidst the chaos, I could do nothing but watch as terrorists brutally killed my soldiers, friends, and colleagues right before me.I was barely hanging on to life. I remember the agony of being tortured and the cold finality of watching my friends being slaughtered. They left me behind,

Cassie’s POVI had no idea what was happening, but suddenly, chills ran down my spine as I sensed the presence of two werewolves in the building. The sensation was both familiar and foreign. It struck me as odd because I could tell they didn’t seem inherently malevolent, but our situation didn’t allow for mere hunches. I needed to ensure the safety of my family, especially my son."Dad, please go to the other room. I’ll check on these unexpected visitors," I instructed. Though they looked worried, they trusted me to handle it.I left my apartment slowly and moved silently toward Dax’s place. Was he safe? Why did the air smell so overwhelming? The werewolves’ scent was unmistakable and amateurish, suggesting they were either new to this or careless if they were here to cause harm.With a deep breath, I kicked the door open and was met with the shocked faces of Damon, Dax, and Derek. I sniffed the air again, questioning my senses. Was it possible that Dax and Derek now smelled like werew

Cassie’s POVI woke up in a luxurious hotel room, feeling utterly disoriented. The opulence of the place suggested it belonged to someone very wealthy, but why would a rich human kidnap me, especially on my birthday?Looking in the mirror, I saw that I was dressed in a pretty white above-the-knee dress. My confusion only deepened. This was supposed to be a simple birthday at home, cooking dinner for my family.I approached the door, relieved to find it unlocked. Stepping into the corridor, I noticed a trail of flower petals leading me further. With a mix of curiosity and apprehension, I followed the trail.It led me to a grand door, which I opened to reveal a lavish party inside. Before I could retreat, I bumped into a solid figure—it was Derek and Dax, both in sharp suits, looking dashing as ever."Can someone explain what’s going on here?" I asked, bewildered. I had been expecting a quiet evening at home, not a grand party."I’m sorry," Dax said, scratching the back of his head. "Thi
