All Chapters of Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion : Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

CAST - The house had been loud earlier, but now it was quiet. The kind of quiet that made you feel like you were missing something important. I paced the living room, Declan squirming against my chest. His cries weren’t sharp or panicked, just tired and constant, a pitiful noise that made my chest ache. His little body burned like a furnace, and I couldn’t shake the feeling I should have done something sooner.I bounced him gently, trying to give him the comfort he couldn’t seem to find. His tiny hands tugged weakly at my shirt, his face pressed against my chest. His breathing was too quick, each inhale shallow. The sound of it made me swallow back the knot of guilt building in my throat. He had been fussy all day, but I’d chalked it up to him being a toddler. Kids cried. They threw tantrums. I’d thought he just needed some extra attention. Now, though, it was clear this wasn’t normal.He whimpered again as I carried him into the kitchen. I thought about grabbing some water but could

LINC - Declan whined in my arms, squirming restlessly as I paced the living room. I tried everything to calm him. Bouncing, singing to him, rubbing his back, but nothing seemed to work. His little body was too warm, his face flushed, and I was running out of ideas.Cast and Lila were still passed out in the bed. Selena and Jaed had abandoned me hours ago because they were worried about catching it, and even Wady seemed to be at her wit's end. The knock at the door felt like a lifeline. I practically lunged toward it, juggling Declan as I swung it open.A woman stood on the porch, her dark brown hair pulled back and a large medical bag slung over her shoulder. She looked young, but all the healers had made it clear she knew what she was doing."I'm Katherine Chelsea," she paused and smiled. "You can call me Kat."I stepped back to let her in, nodding toward the couch. "Thanks for coming. I wasn't sure what else to do. Lila's been out of it, and Declan won't settle. I didn't want to

CAST -I ripped the shower curtain back, and what I saw froze every thought in my head. Lila lay crumpled in the tub. Her clothes were drenched, water cascading over her as blood mixed with it and swirled toward the drain. Her hair clung to her face, and a deep gash on her forehead sent streaks of red down her pale skin.Her lips were blue.My legs nearly gave out, but I forced myself forward and dropped to my knees beside her. I reached under her, pulling her into my arms. Her head fell against my shoulder. She was lifeless and cold. So cold.Water soaked through my clothes as I pressed my hand against the gash, trying to stop the bleeding, but it was slick and unrelenting."Linc!" My shout reverberated off the tiles, raw and desperate. "Linc, get in here! I need help!"Nothing.The silence of the house was deafening. The only sound was the rush of the shower and my ragged breaths. I stood, hauling her up with me, her limp body heavy in my arms. Water dripped from her clothes as I s

LILA - There were days I didn't remember. Entire stretches of time vanished into a haze of fever and sheer exhaustion. All I knew was the sickness had struck me, leaving me trapped in a cycle of throwing up and sleeping. At some point, Cast must have gotten sick because suddenly, he was there full-time, curled up against me with the same fevered shivers I felt. We must have been a miserable pair, sweating through sheets and blankets, too weak to do anything but endure.When I finally came to, it was to the faint sound of movement and the sting of a needle leaving my arm. I blinked groggily, my vision swimming until it settled on a woman I didn't recognize. She smiled as she noticed me waking."Your color is finally coming back," she remarked. "And, wow. Baby Declan got your eyes. So beautiful."I blinked again, still trying to clear the fog that had settled on my brain. Declan. I sat up slowly, my body protesting the movement. Before I could ask anything, Linc appeared at the doorwa

LILA - The bathroom tiles were cool against my back. Cast pressed into me, his hands warm as they slid over my hips. I tugged him closer, letting myself get lost in the pull. His lips moved against mine, each touch carrying a growing urgency that left no space for anything else. Finally, I eased back, resting my hands on his chest. "Go to the kitchen and get the food started," I murmured as I felt his erratic heartbeat under my palms. He lingered before nodding. He straightened in an attempt to pull himself together. "You'll come out soon, right?" "I'm just going to check on Declan," I paused and sighed. "And Linc." He gritted his teeth but nodded. He didn't argue, which surprised me. He stepped back and left the room, the door clicking softly behind him. I leaned against the sink, steadying myself. My reflection stared back at me, flushed and slightly erratic. I splashed water on my face before heading toward the bedroom. When I opened the door, Linc was propped up against the
