All Chapters of The Second Chance Luna : Chapter 31 - Chapter 37

Avery motioned for everyone to hold their silence. He cleared his throat to speak. "Today we are gathered here to bare witness to a challenge. Sienna of pack Red Moon has challenged our future Luna, and my mate. Roxanna on the grounds that she is not fit to be Luna in due to her belief that Roxie will not make a good Luna based on her small stature and her opinion of Roxie being weak. Roxanna, originally from pack Redwood has came here to answer that challenge and show you all that Sienna's opinion is invalid and despite her small size, has the ability to defend herself, and others under her care. I ask you to withold your judgement to the end. As the old laws dictate, the two challengers must face off in single combat until one party yields. As long as the fight is fair, we must accept the outcome." Avery nodded towards Roxie and took his seat between Avilene and his mother. "You don't look so good, Roxie. It's not too late to forefit and spare yourself some dignity. You don't look w

The following morning, Roxie was rustled out of bed by Avery. She quickly dressed herself in a black long sleeved top and a pair of dark leggings. She threw up her hair into a high pony and slipped on her flats as Avery led her downstairs. He was dressed similarly in his usual long sleeved dark dress shirt and a pair of dark denim jeans. He led her by the arm downstairs towards the dungeon. "What are we going?" Roxie asked groggily and Avery sighed. "It is part of the laws. If an Alpha sentences someone in the pack to be executed. The Alpha and if available, their Luna must be present along with anyone who wishes to attend in order to be present for the last rights." Avery commented in a low voice as he opened the door for her. He led her down to the basement level and through a door into a dimly lit hallway. There were several cells there and at the end was a large metal door. "What's that?" Roxie asked and Avery sighed. "It's the Execution chamber. There are seats for the viewing boo

"You are quite the dark beauty aren't you?" Avilene asked as they were browsing the dresses for the upcoming ceremony. Roxie didn't want to admit it, but she wasn't really a fan of overly bright colors like the other girls that she grew up with. Pink and vibrant colors just weren't her thing. She clung to the understanding that she was an outcast and tried to pick things that made her stand out less in a crowd. "Are you talking about my hair color?" Roxie retorted quietly. Avilene laughed in response. "No, I mean, you typically wear things darker in color, or absent of color entirely. Blacks, greys.. white.. things of that nature. I think you look beautiful in those anyway, but I was wondering if you wanted to wear something.. brighter for the event?" Avilene asked. "I don't want to stand out too much, then again I'm not accustomed to these kinds of formal events. I never even attended my own prom, so how should I know what's proper attire?" Roxanna asked with a soft chuckle. Avilene

Everything had been prepared for the big day. Roxie woke early from her slumber, but woke to discover that Avery had already left the room. His side of the bed was already cold, which made Roxie a little disappointed and underwhelmed. She moved to sit up in the bed and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. He was the light of her life and she appreciated him like another. She moved out of the bed to take her shower. She had just finished rinsing off and wrapping herself in a towel when she noticed Avery standing there with a tray of food. "Breakfast for our new Luna?" Avery mentioned with a cheeky grin. Roxie couldn't help but laugh at his corny behavior. She lifted onto the tips of her toes to lean up and kiss his cheek. Avery grinned happily. He didn't leave the room until Roxie was contently eating her breakfast. He made sure to grab a fresh omelet with her favorite fillings, as well as a side of hashbrowns and her favorite juice. He would be lying if he said that he wasn't a nervous wre
