All Chapters of The Luna's Vampire Prince: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

*Rafe*Just as the guard bends over, I grab hold of his bat and whirl it on him. He has just enough time to register surprise on his face before he goes down. The servants who came for Riley’s body are too shocked to scream, and they back away, their hands raised in surrender.I leave them be for now and search the guard. As I suspected, he’s stupid enough to have the keys to my cuffs.I unlock them and throw the keys to the ground, taking one last look at the servants. They’re plastered against the wall and one has wet his pants, so I turn to assess the exit route, a hallway leading to the main door.Now that I’m no longer chained in silver, I reach out to Ainslee to repeat what I’d tried to tell her earlier about our son.All that is needed now is to escape this hell-hole and get to the north. Not knowing how many guards I’ll face on the other side, I put on the guard’s bloody uniform and sprint up to the dungeon door.I listen for a while but determine the door is too thick for me

*Ainslee*Jerim looks at me. “Is something the matter, Ainslee?” he asks.“Can you tell me if I’m pregnant?” I reply, watching Annamarie’s eyebrows shoot up in surprise.“Pregnant? I…. Yes, I can check,” he says, also looking shocked.“And if I am,” I continue as he snaps open his bag, “can you tell me if the pain I’ve been in recently has hurt the baby?”He freezes, and my heart falters. I can tell the news is not good. “If you are pregnant, Ainslee, it will be impossible for me to know if the baby has been affected until you give birth. I am hopeful that if you are pregnant, there will be no complications.”“All right.” I decide I must make peace with this, and quickly, because if I do have an unborn child within me, that does not change the fact that Drake is somewhere in the north, and I don’t have time to mope about and worry about something I can’t control. “Examine away, Jerim.”He takes out a syringe and draws a small amount of my blood, then combines it with something in a te

*Rafe*“You stink,” Devon says again as we sit down for a meal at an inn nearing the northern farmland.“Yes, thank you. I am aware,” I grumble back. I smell to high heaven of lycan. The trick had worked beautifully on Ainslee at the culling. However, that was in an enclosed space, so I hadn’t had to use as much wolf shifter scent. Now, wearing lycan scent, I have to use more because of my open surroundings. I might have overdone it, however.He wrinkles his nose. “Seriously, you smell awful. Like a lycan who’s never had a bath in his life.”I can’t tell myself because the scent is so strong in my own nose that my eyes are watering. “Are you sure it’s that bad?”He gestures around us, and indeed, I see people changing tables to be further away from the two of us. “I don’t think we’re going to hear any rumors anywhere if you keep driving people away like this.”“Good point.” I sigh and get up. “I’m going to the bathroom to wash some of this off.”“Take a change of clothes with you,” he

*Rafe*“This could very well be a trap,” Devon whispers to me as we approach the place just up the road where the guards stop to quickly water their horses.“It could. But it could also be the only way we don’t get caught. If they know I’m around here, we won’t have any peace,” I murmur back.There are two guards on duty while the rest water the horses. They’ve captured a lot of men over the course of the day, and those men are filling the cage carts.“This is reprehensible behavior for a king,” I grit out.“I’m sure he’d be delighted to hear your opinion in person,” he replies, rolling his eyes.“No doubt. Let’s try to make sure that doesn’t happen.” We sneak as close as we dare. Luckily, we are standing downwind.When one guard crosses our path, Devon grabs him, and I quickly put a hand over his nose and mouth, smothering him unconscious without a sound. Devon takes his uniform and puts it on quickly so he can go on patrol like nothing’s happened.I hover in Devon’s shadow until he

*Rafe*I stalk right up to the porch of the farmhouse, ignoring the startled guards, and snatch my child out of Eustice’s hands. “I’ll take him, thank you very much.”“K-King Rafe Poe,” Eustice splutters, stumbling backward.I turn to the baby-shaker then and grab her by the throat, lifting her off the ground. She gurgles.The guards are stirred to action, and all five of them swarm toward me.The lycans who came with me leap out of the trees and run across the road, throwing themselves on the guards. Scott makes short work of two of them, snapping their necks before they even know what hit them.Casper and Jim head for two other guards and rip them open before they can make a sound, though I have no idea if they were able to use their mind-link capabilities to call for help.A guard almost reaches me, but Devon grabs him by the neck, ripping through before he shifts, wiping blood off his mouth. “Go ahead,” he says to me. “I wouldn’t let a baby-shaker live.”I won’t be the one to kill
