All Chapters of The Contract Luna's Salvation : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Brielle’s POV. I stood frozen, my heart pounding in my chest as the low, menacing growl echoed through the forest. My eyes darted around, but I couldn’t see anything. It was getting da, and every shadow seemed to move in my eyes. My thoughts raced as being pregnant made this situation ten times worse. I had to get out of here. Taking a deep breath, I quickly scanned the area, looking for a way out. I didn’t have much time. I turned to run, but then I saw it. It was a mountain lion, powerful, stepping out of the shadows. Its eyes locked onto me, watching my every move. I took off, running as fast as I could, my breath coming in short, panicked gasps. The forest blurred around me, branches scratching at my skin, but I didn’t care. I just needed to get away. The sound of the mountain lion’s paws hitting the ground behind me filled me with terror. It was fast, too fast. My legs burned, and my lungs felt like they were on fire. The pain of running so much and so quickly was unbearable

Brielle's POV. I woke up slowly, my eyes fluttering open to the sight of a lavish room. Soft, golden light streamed through sheer curtains, illuminating the ornate furnishings and intricate tapestries that adorned the walls. I blinked, trying to piece together where I was and how I had gotten here. The events of the previous night felt like a distant nightmare, yet the pain in my legs and the dull ache in my body told me it was all too real.Memories of the mountain lion, the fierce fight, and the man—Rio—who had saved me came rushing back. My heart raced as I recalled the terror and the relief, and I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. I struggled to sit up, wincing as pain shot through my legs.Just then, the door to the room opened, and Rio stepped in. His golden hair caught the light, and his eyes softened as he saw me."You're awake," he said, a note of relief in his voice. "How are you feeling?""Sore," I admitted, my voice still hoarse. "But...thank you. For everythin

Chapter Twenty.Brielle’s POV. I walked through the pack’s territory with a guard trailing a few steps behind me. For my security, Rio had told me, and I was actually grateful for that. After that terrifying attack, I didn’t want to be out on my own in a space I didn’t know, so I was hoping that the guard would help me. The space was big and beautiful, with tall trees swaying gently in the breeze and flowers in full bloom, and their pretty colours was a feast for the eyes. The pack members moved about with purpose, and some even waved at me, and I wondered just how nice these people could be with how good they were treating me when they didn’t even know me or anything. I wondered when I’d be cleared to go home too. What would Lucien and Zane think of my disappearance? Would they be worried? Angry? A pang of guilt hit me as I realised that I had thought about Lucien before Zane, but I quickly pushed it aside. I needed to focus on healing, both physically and emotionally and being

Brielle’s POV. A little over a week had passed since I had got here, and I was starting to feel comfortable, too comfortable. Staying here no longer felt like a vacation, but I felt like I was actually at home, which wasn’t something nice if one thought about it deeply, but that’s not the point here. I came out to see pretty lights, tents and decorations going up, and I was pleasantly surprised, because who doesn’t love a nice party? Especially when you could smell nice things cooking, and you think of the enjoyment in store for you if you attended. I wasn’t informed of any parties, and since I wasn’t a native here, I was as confused as a newborn mouse. I heard Rio shouting something to someone, and waited for him to finish with what he was doing. Soon, he walked up to me. “You’re finally up. I thought we’d have to send in a doctor.” He pulled me into a one armed hug from the side. “Yeah.” I friend as we pulled away, touching my belly. “I was really tired.” “You need as mu

Brielle’s POV“Do you know what a pink wolfsbane do to our kind?” he asked as he concocted a pink elixir in a bottle.I passed out after he choked the air out of me and I woke up in a bedroom with my hands tied to the bed.“Rio? What are you doing?” I looked around in fright because I already had an idea of what he was about to do.“You know, growing up I was seen as a menace. A mess that affects everything in his path but that’s not it,” the way he spoke and walked around like a psychopath had my heartbeat hard against my chest.He leaned over, sniffing my face with drools dripping out from his mouth, “I am not a psycho, just misunderstood. No one ever tries to understand me,”“Rio, whatever you think you are doing is wrong. Okay? Its all wrong and you know it,”“Wrong, right, good, bad, black, white. Those are all human’s way of thinking and we are not humans, we are creatures that surpasses the imagination.” He said as he looked me in the eyes.With a deep sigh, he pried open my mo
