All Chapters of A Luna of fire: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Avery’s POV Hot tears began to stream down my face as Zander and Greyson rushed Kane back to the palace where doctors and nurses were already waiting to treat him. I wanted to hold Kane’s hand through out the procedure, but the doctors forced me to wait outside while they saved his life. I felt the painful pressure of guilt on my chest. This was my fault. The men had come to my window, they had come for me. Kane would not have been hurt if it weren’t for me. The thought twisted my gut, and I wanted to punch a wall. Most preferably, I would have loved to punch the faces of those intruders that had dared to hurt Kane. Who were they anyway? I remembered that their scent was familiar.. like someone from my former pack, but I wasn’t able to place it so I could be wrong. The crazy thing was that, if the person were from spring pack, I would have been able to mind link them and found their identity a few hours ago. But that was impossible now because I had cut ties with t

James POV After Kane’s letter was read, the hall fell so silent that you could almost hear the proverbial pin drop. I could even see that a few Alphas had begun to anxiously sweat, despite the cold temperature of the room.Most of them were scared now, and no one could blame them. Alpha Kane had just threatened to kill us all if we tried to take Avery, Marie and Brianne from the north. And everyone of us knew from painful experience that Kane was a man of his word. He did not make threats lightly.The hall remained into a quiet as Elder Novak proceeded to open the package Alpha Kane had sent. Inside was a set of rare and valuable western knives, clearly hand crafted by most of our highly trained warriors.It was proof that someone from the west had truly been foolish enough to attack the north, but who? Who else besides me wanted Avery so badly that they wanted to risk a war for her sake?My mind went to Dorian, but I quickly dismissed the thought because I wanted to believe t

Avery’s POV Kane must have realized what I was thinking because he quickly grabbed my hands in his.“Avery, After Dorian left, i immediately came to explain everything to you, but you had disappeared,” Kane revealed, “then the next thing I heard was that you had come to this dangerous forest all alone, what the hell were you thinking?” He scolded. “You!” Fury and unbelief was boiling inside me. “I was thinking about you! You asshole! I was worried that you were going to die. I blamed myself for putting you in pain. I was so scared that you were going to die and leave me alone, but you were faking it all along?! How could you do that to me?!”I yelled with tears filling my eyes.The adrenaline of the past day, the fear, and the shock of seeing him now was finally getting to me.Kane looked deeply pained, like it hurt him to see my tears. “I’m so sorry, Avery. I was going to tell you everything as soon as possible but I didn’t have enough time, and that was my only chance to get ri

Kane’s POV But I soon realized that today was just meant to punish me because Avery abruptly fell asleep as soon as she really settled in my lap. I was left with a raging hard on and it was a battle not to let the tears fall. Being the big boy I was, I swallowed my pain, covered her in a bed sheet, and fixed her pillow, doing my best to make sure she was very comfortable and would not have a neck pain when she woke up. When she woke up the next morning, she was so embarrassed, but I thought she was adorable. I was actually glad she’d drank that wine because it brought her to me and allowed her to open up about all the things the faerie had told her that were eating at her—especially the topic of Mona. My breath hitched when Avery mentioned her name, but I sighed. I always knew that we would eventually have this discussion, but there was no easy way to talk about it. Because how can I tell the woman I want to be with, that the last woman I wanted chose to die rather th

Avery’s POV I thought about James and shook my head. “It’s in the past now. But it’s funny how the memory doesn’t hurt as much as it used to. I just get a little annoyed whenever I remember that Lizzy has never worked for anything in her life, but she still won over me, and I was forced to leave my loyal pack members in the hands of someone as immature as her, it’s not fair.” Kane rubbed my back. “Don’t worry they’ll get what is coming to them. The universe has a way of balancing the scales and Karma isn’t called a bitch for nothing.” He said and I smiled. He raised my hands to his lips and kissed it before looking at me again. “I thank the goddess for bringing you to me. I will do my best to make up for the common sense James lacked, and I will never make you have to share me with anyone.” He promised and I smiled because despite how James hurt me, I was ready to open my heart and trust that Kane would keep his word. Kane had calmed down now and his wolf had retracted,
