All Chapters of Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion : Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

LILA - The ache in my abdomen pulled me from sleep. My body felt heavy, every muscle reminding me of the c-section. My eyes adjusted to the shadows until I spotted Cast sitting in the chair nearby. His shoulders trembled as he tried to muffle the sobs.Tory and Roxy were curled together on Linc’s chest on the couch. He was lying back on the armrest and snoring. The sight made my heart swell.Ignoring the sharp protest from my body, I slid from the bed. Each movement was hell, but I didn’t stop until I reached him. Curling up in his lap, I pressed against him, seeking the comfort I knew I’d find there. His arms came around me instinctively, pulling me closer as his grief spilled into the bond.“What’s wrong?” I whispered, pressing my forehead against his chest. His hold on me tightened.“The spirits told me something,” he said after a long pause. “Tory is mine.”I froze. “What?”“That’s why her eyes are brown,” he continued. “The original Oxford twin would have died. I kept the baby a

CAST - Tory was mine. After everything Kat did, the choice she made, the life she ended, Tory was mine. The spirits told me, and I knew it to be true. But knowing didn’t make it easier to grasp the storm of emotions it brought. Gratitude for the moon goddess giving me another chance collided with the raw anger at Kat for what she had taken. It didn’t feel fair. But then, looking at Tory, fairness wasn’t the point. She was here, and I would never let her go. Never.Lila had been quiet about it all, but not in a way that suggested avoidance. She had slipped seamlessly into her role, picking up her Luna duties even as she healed. Throughout the day, she tended to the twins, feeding them, and soothing them like she'd always had three. Declan’s boundless energy didn’t faze her; she managed to wrangle him and keep him entertained and out of trouble while Linc and I worked. She checked on Cece, ensuring she had what she needed to rest, and spoke with Linc about the pack’s needs. There was

LILA - We made our way through the winding Louisiana roads. To my surprise, the twins were doing incredibly well. Hardly a peep from either of them and that included on the plane. Tory remained alert, her curious eyes darting to everything that caught her attention while Roxy slept. I had braced myself for chaos on this sudden trip, but it was proving to be the opposite. Kael and Knox Monroe sat in the front of their large SUV as we drove. Their strong alpha presence was impossible to ignore. Even from the backseat, their sheer potency commanded attention in a way that sent ripples through me. I had once thought Linc and Cast were the most commanding men I’d ever meet. But these two were something entirely different.The country had always been divided. The regular werewolves stayed along the coasts, and the interior belonged to the Lycans. I had never been around their kind before. The energy they carried felt ancient and untamed, yet honed with precision. It wasn’t just their stre

LINC - Helping Teddy and Phin with the crawfish wasn’t something I thought I’d find enjoyable, but there was something satisfying about the process. We worked side by side, sorting through the wriggling creatures as Phin gave instructions in that fast-paced Cajun drawl I struggled to keep up with. Cast moved quickly, dropping the good ones into the buckets and tossing the rest into the discard pile. Teddy whistled a tune, occasionally throwing in a teasing remark that sent Phin into a rapid burst of words, blending Cajun and French so quickly I could barely catch half of it.“Y’all gettin’ the hang of it. Not bad for first-timers. Don’t let Phin scare ya. He’s all bark.” Teddy grinned, tossing another crawfish into the bucket.Phin muttered something sharp and quick, earning a laugh from Teddy. Cast shook his head but didn’t stop working.“What’s next?” Cast hoisted one of the buckets, ready for the next step.Teddy gestured toward the tubs. “Now we let ‘em soak. Gotta clean ‘em up g

LINC - Lila’s lips moved against mine. It had been too long since she and I had been together, and the bond was aching from the time apart. But this was different. This was the first time all three of us had come together like this. I regretted fighting it last time when she marked him. I thought it would cause issues between us. All it did was put off everything for months. Now, only one piece remained unfinished. Cast.He had marked Lila. I had marked Lila. She had marked both of us. But Cast and I had never taken that step.Now, with everything between us, with Tory, the impact of it hit me full force.A groan escaped as I gripped Lila’s body, holding her back against my chest as she rolled her hips against him. Cast lay beneath her, moaning and growling as she rolled her hips. My lips trailed from Lila’s to her neck, brushing against the place I had marked. I bit down gently, and she shuddered between us. So did he.A sharp gasp broke from her lips as she rocked into him, the r
