All Chapters of Hunting Their Defiant Luna: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Hugo POV "Fuck knows, my wolf has moments where he thinks he can take on the world, but he can't! The bastard forgets that he is not invisible. And for some reason, his eyes change from black to red; I think he misses our mates.” Jason answered, as my eyes zoned in on the red eyes of his wolf nervously, almost missing what he said. "Mates?" I asked, arching a brow; I know it wasn't unheard of for wolves to have more than one mate during their lifespan or even at once. But I had never met anyone happy in an open relationship with more than one female. "Yeah, man, it's complicated as fuck though!" He laughed, shaking his head, obviously losing himself in thought. "Women, huh!" I laughed, but I couldn't help envying the lucky bastard; he had no idea how lucky he was, even if it was complicated! To have two females who loved and worshipped him when I was over here alone, my mate lost, but honestly, even if she wasn't, she despised me and refused to show me a shed of affection. She ne

Alec POV My eyes tightened watching Jason step between the stare-off between his father and Hugo, nodding for me to continue, apparently not appreciating the turn of events either and wanting to move on quickly in an attempt to defuse the tension. "Whatever you have found, it's not good, I assume. Or we wouldn't be here; we would be going to get your girl! So, what are we gonna do?" Jason asked, my lips pulling up a little at his statement. "We?" I asked cautiously; my eyes trailed to my brother, who was shaking his head at Maxwell, holding his hands up in a gesture of submission, one we all knew would be short-lived. "Yes!" He snapped, shrugging, "I don't know if you noticed while you have been up here drinking whiskey chatting with my father, but your brother is not healing because his wolf is in a pissy. He might be able to fight like the best of us...." "Better than you dickhead!" Hugo cut in, but my eyes remained locked on Jason's green hues. "But, he needs someone to wat

Aurora POVRunning my fingers up my achy neck, the dried blood from last night stuck to my skin, making the hairs at the nape of my neck pull uncomfortably. I felt like utter crap, dirty in so many ways, tormented by hunger and disgust. Running my tongue over my teeth, I almost gagged at the filth I felt coating my pearly, not-so-whites. "As if I am gonna die looking like a gutter rat!" I groaned through an insanely dry mouth, shaking my head in defeat, Luke's words still ringing in my head. I knew I had no one to blame but myself for Hugo and Alec not coming to save me, but it didn't make the sting of being abandoned any less painful. Chewing the inside of my lip to stop the tears from falling, I leaned my head back against the cool metal of the radiator and let myself ponder for a moment how different things would have been if only Alec and I had been allowed to stay married. We could have all been so happy if Hugo had found a real mate and not obsessed over Alec and I. "I wonder

Aurora POV I knew I was playing a dangerous game; there was every chance Simon would see straight through my manipulation. I just hoped the fact my body was naturally responding to his touch and presence sold the story, no matter how dirty it made me feel! We had been standing under the shower spray for a few minutes, and I had allowed his fingers to roam over my hips and up the planes of my back without a word. I was enjoying the shower and couldn't believe how something as simple as a shower felt so damn amazing! Leaning my head back, I took deep gulps of the water, letting it heal my tight throat and fill my empty belly. "So, how long have you been working for Luke?" I asked, marvelling at how much better I felt already. Keeping my back to Simon, I arched a brow, feeling his hands pause in their pursuit of my curves. "I don't work for him!" He snapped, gripping my hips and pulling me back into his muscular chest, drawing a groan from my lips. "But he is your boss?" I asked

Aurora POVWaking up slowly to the distant sound of chatter, I opened my eyes, ignoring the thumping behind my eyes, to see I was back in the room I had occupied for the last god knows how long but no longer chained to the radiator. The plush feeling of warmth and comfort under my back told me I was on the bed, and the ache in my arms and legs alerted me to the fact I was restrained. Quietly attempting to pull my legs, I felt fear prickle the back of my neck; realising I was tied at each ankle, I knew I would find each arm stretched in place, too. 'Great!' I muttered inwardly sulkily."Really?" I heard Ava's voice rattle through my head, confused."Ava!" I gasped, feeling the overwhelming sense of hopelessness evaporate. "Shit, am I glad to hear your voice!" I groaned. "Aww love ya too, Aurora!" She chimed with a slight chuckle. I could sense she wasn't at full power, but anything was better than nothing right now. "Last thing I remember is... the car park... How long have I been
