All Chapters of Hunting Their Defiant Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Alec POV"17:07 Two minutes later than when you last checked the damn thing!" Maxwell snorted from across the room. Covering my watch back up and straightening my suit, I continued to walk around the room. I had been pacing for hours. I understood and supported what Hugo had done, but it didn't make me any less nervous. The more I think about it, the more I realise how selfless the move was on his part. If this goes tits up, and there was every chance it would. He would be blamed, and he alone would face the consequences. "Will you just sit down!" Maxwell snapped, closing the book he was reading. Ignoring him again and continued to pace, Hugo's warning of Maxwell still lingered in the back of my mind, and I was itching to find out what the smug bastard was up to, but there was a time and place for that challenge, and it was now when my brother and beta was off hunting our girl. "I get it, I do!" Maxwell started to say, rolling my eyes as I looked out of the window. I let him drone o

Aurora POV Guilt and shame washed over me at the unexpected feelings I had coursing through my body; I had just spent weeks locked up and treated like dirt by males whose only purpose for me was to humiliate and torture me. Now I had been freed from their sleazy hold, and here I was with another male, Aroused and flirting my way through our time together! Seriously, what was wrong with me? This man had spent his whole life treating me like crap! Yet all I could think of was how good it would feel to have those hands working on a different part of my body. It didn't help that the look in his eyes told me that he was OK with whatever situation I was toying with if that was what I wanted, and fuck it was! But I couldn't! I wouldn't! "Why not?" Ava asked sheepishly, taking me by surprise. "Who knows what things will be like when we land.. given the chaos we left behind! Alec might not be as understanding as Hugo! After all, there is a reason he wasn't at Hugo's side to rescue us!" S

Aurora POV "Will you lower your damn voice!" I heard Hugo grunt, a smile pulling to my lips, feeling his hands tighten around me protectively. "I didn't say anything!" I moaned, opening my eyes to see him looking down at me with that smile that made my body flush, but something darker lingered in his eyes. "Now, look at what you have done! You have woken her up! " He moaned, his eyes shooting across the room; following his line of sight, I sucked in a breath seeing a pair of baby blues locked on me, filled with pity and anger. "Awesome! Just how every girl wants a male to look at her!" I sighed to Ava, who was deadly silent in the depths of my mind. "Aurora, as much as I love the feeling of your nails digging into my skin, I kinda love this shirt!" Hugo teased, nodding to where I had been, clenching his shoulder unconsciously. "Sorry!" I whispered, nodding to him, "Can you put me down, please!" I asked, my eyes drifting back to Alec, who looked like he had seen a ghost. With

Alec POV "She is impossible!" I roared to Wrath, who, for the most part, was ignoring me, still pissed at her being allowed to stay in the Luna suit! Sighing, I shook my head at my ex-wife in frustration. "Kitten, what I was going to say before you threw your shit at me, was that.. What you can do is rest! Recover, and we can take things from there!" I vented, sitting back on the bed beside Hugo, who was sprawled across it like he fucking belonged here. He didn't!I did! But that was a fight for another day. Right now, it seemed Aurora had built some trust with my wayward brother and, in return, had given him a sense of calm I needed him to possess if we were going to get through this shit storm. "Oh." She whispered, pressing her lips together into a thin line that made her look like she did when she was ten, and I had caught her spying on me. "But, the clothes... weren't fitting for you!" I added, shaking my head yet again. "So I binned them; we will get you some more tomorrow

Alec POVWaking up to the soft hum of someone snoring and dampness on my chest, I stretched out, trying to recall where I was. Opening one eye, I glanced down towards the sound of the culprit snoring peacefully, dribbling like a newborn on my chest that she lay cuddling...She may be Hugo's fated mate! But she was still my chosen! And I had missed these moments!"Aurora?" I whispered, remembering the night before, a bath, TV and laughter between the three of us until, at some point, we all fell asleep together, wrapped up in her duvet in her bed. "Her bed?" Wrath asked, still tense and annoyed. The standard for him! "For now, yes!" I snapped back, shutting him out before he could ruin this moment of peace with Aurora. Scanning the bed for Hugo, I found it empty; yet again he had snuck off. A part of me wanted to know what he was up to, what the fuck his deal was; he was so up and down, at the moment, I was beginning to worry about the giant bastard!"I thought you said she was going
