All Chapters of Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion : Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

CECE - Cast called me early that morning. “Cece, it’s Linc. He’s in the hospital.” I snapped awake. “What happened?”“Lila won’t leave his side,” he added. “I need you to take care of Declan full-time for me. Just for a few days.”“Why me?”There was a pause. “You’re the only one I trust with him,” he admitted finally. “He’s not easy, and you seem to be the only one he will calm down with besides us.”I almost said no. Almost. But Lila needed someone. My Luna needed someone. Declan needed someone. And Cast had asked me, of all people.The packhouse felt different when I stepped in. The usual hum of energy was missing, replaced by an unsettling stillness. Wady had explained it was from the lack of alpha energy due to having five in the house, but it was still so unsettling when it happened. I reached the nursery just as Declan started wailing. My steps faltered, but I forced myself forward. He stood in his crib, red-faced as he bounced up and down.“Alright, kiddo. Chill out, I'm her

CAST - Lila had dug her heels in again, refusing to eat, refusing to rest, refusing to leave Linc’s side. Alpha or not, I couldn’t force her. Not in a way that wouldn’t break something I wasn’t willing to lose. Not again.I stopped near a vending machine, glaring at the lineup of snacks inside. Brute force wasn’t going to work. I needed another angle, something that didn’t feel like a challenge to her. She wouldn’t fight back if she didn’t realize it was a battle.The faint smell of coffee and fried food drifted from the food court. It stirred a memory of her leaning against me on the couch back at the packhouse, stealing fries from my plate. She’d grumbled about the grease but ate every last one I handed her after that. The twins seemed to love fried foods and made her crave them often.I had to start thinking like Linc and handle this like he would. He never had to force her to do anything. He didn’t even hint at it. His strength as Alpha came from something quieter, something that

CAST - Lila’s head rested against my chest, her breathing finally even for the first time in days. I leaned my head back against the couch, exhaustion pulling me under in a way I hadn’t allowed since this all began. I'd told every story I could think of in an attempt to lull Lila to sleep. I'm thankful it worked because she needed it. I needed it.It was short-lived. I was quickly pulled back to reality. I blinked up at the lady standing over me. The nurse’s hand pressed firmly against my arm. “Your phone’s been going off for forty-five minutes.”I sat up, disoriented, Lila stirring slightly before settling back into the pillow. I fumbled around until I grabbed my phone off the table. Selena’s name filled the screen, along with more missed messages and calls than I cared to count. I hit the answer button and barely had the phone to my ear before she lashed out.“Get back to the house. Now.”I snapped into full alertness. “What the hell is going on?”“You’ll see when you get here,” sh

CAST - We sat together on the bed, her hand gripping mine as she leaned into me through each contraction. Her body tensed with the rhythm of pain that came and went like waves crashing against a shoreline. I reached out through the bond, drawing the sharp edge of her pain into myself, giving her space to breathe, to endure."You're doing good," I whispered, brushing a damp strand of hair from her face. She didn't answer, just squeezed my hand tighter as the next contraction rolled through her. I held her steady, focusing every ounce of my strength on pulling the worst of it away from her.But something shifted. Her body jerked against mine, a strangled cry escaping her lips. The bond flared wildly, erratic and overwhelming, like a dam breaking. I staggered, trying to keep control, but the pain surged back into her with twice the force. Her grip slackened, her head falling back as her eyes fluttered open, unfocused."Lila?" My voice cracked. I pushed harder through the bond, pouring

LINC - The chaos hit me the second I opened my eyes. The sounds around me were disjointed. The weird reverberating noises were filled with distant shouts and the piercing wail of monitors. It felt like waking in the middle of a storm with no memory of how I got there. Despite the haze, one thing was clear... I had to find Lila. The pull toward her was primal. Every fiber of my being demanded I get to her. To my girls. My body felt trapped between waking and drowning, my legs refusing to cooperate at first. Even so, I dragged myself forward, step by agonizing step. The walls seemed to pulse around me, each sound bouncing sharper off the next, but none of it mattered until a sound from behind drew my attention. I turned, catching sight of nurses rushing toward a figure sprawled across the floor. It was Cast, and I knew instantly what he had done, the idiot. He lay motionless, his face pale against the sterile tiles, and could not breathe for a second. They worked quickly, lifting him
