Semua Bab Blood Thirsty Luna: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Only when the food was gone and half of the bourbon was gone did the conversation turn back to me. “I’ll get the press conference set up for tomorrow…” Heath’s phone rang. Pulling it out, he looked at it and handed it out to Luca. Luca accepted it and walked to the back of the office for as much privacy as possible. However, Rook kept talking to me. “… I know Luca and Heath have contacted your allies and got that ball moving. If you are okay with it, I will use my company and staff to start the clean up. Obviously, we will try to save as much as possible. Anything we can give back we will.”“Thank you. Can you just pile it up and burn it?” Rook and Lilith looked taken aback. “Burn it?” She glanced at Rook.“We burn our people when they die. Allow their ashes to become the earth. Why not do the same for the pack? I haven’t decided what I am going to do with the land, but it feels right. Burn it, let it become part of the forest.” Rook looked impressed. “That actually makes a lot of s

I had just finished talking when the door opened. Luca walked in, looking all business. His eyes ran down my body before he made eye contact with me. “You look amazing.” “Not as good as the dress we went to the club with.” I smirked at him. Luca raised an eyebrow. “I kept that dress for you.” Raising my eyebrows, Luca pulled me against him. “Oh, really? Maybe you should just install a pole in our bedroom?” Luca opened his mouth to speak, but the someone knocked on the door. Annoyance flashed through him, but he smashed his lips against mine before he answered it. “Ready?” Rook stood in the hallway wearing something similar to Luca. “I wanted to make sure Demi found everything she needed and packed a bag to change into?” Lilith looked at Luca. He stepped to the side, allowing her to look inside. “I did. Thank you. You did guess the right size.” Smiling at her, I handed Luca our bag. “Perfect.” She threaded her arm through mine and pulled me along. “I have breakfast for us to ea

Luca looked at his watch. “We have ten minutes. Let us speak privately for a moment and then we will head out at exactly ten.” “Certainly.” Sheriff Marshall nodded and walked out. As soon as the door shut, my face fell. “Luca…” His hands were on my face instantly. “Everything is okay. I’m taking care of it as we go. Protecting everything. I’m here, love. I’m here.” Pulling me into a hug, I could feel his heart breaking for me. “I know today will be hard. You are doing great.” “Okay.” I had to look up at the lights to keep myself from crying. All the emotions were bubbling, and it annoyed me how close I was to crying. Luca pulled my attention back to him. “Demi… I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean for….” His jaw clenched. “I thought… what can I do for you to trust me again? I’m trying so hard.” “I’m learning to trust you. Learning to forgive. Honestly, maybe once this is over, I can put these feelings behind me. I just know that I need you. Probably more than you know.” “You are the str

Heavier footsteps than I expected walked up behind me. Turning around, Rook and Lilith were catching up with us. Nora and Jared were behind them and Alpha Winston. “Is there anything you want done differently?” Lilith asked as she walked up to me. She narrowed her eyes as she examined what had been accomplished so far. “No. I don’t need a penny. If these things can be cleaned and given to someone in need, than I am happy with that.” “It will move quicker when the group of photographers are completed with their assessments.” Rager looked at how much needed to get done. “This was a massive pack and might take us a few days to finish.” “That’s okay. Make sure everyone gets breaks and eats. It’s getting colder, so heat exhaustion shouldn’t be an issue.” Putting my hands on my hips, I just looked around. “Alpha Demi, Heather and I can keep going here. I believe Alpha Rook would like for you to handle the packhouse personally.” I looked at Heather, but she was focused on Heath. “That

“Not then. We found something when we were there yesterday.” I looked at Luca.“Demi had been poisoned and was passed out. Her memories came back as she was fighting off the effects of that. Either way, there is a creature out there that has protected her since she was little. It took us to some water and had me dive under it to a cave. When we followed it, we found humans. They were forcing a liquid into them, turning them into these creatures. No treasure, but something is going on here. I was able to spill the liquid, but two people showed up. We didn’t let a look at who it was. One man and one woman. Either way, we just got out and ran when you picked us up.”Everyone was quiet for a moment. “You didn’t think we needed to know this?” Rook was angry. That annoyed the shit out of me. “First off, I would like to point out that whoever killed my pack is still out there. I’m not sure how that fits into anything or if it even is a part of this. All I know is we are trying to figure out
