Chapter 39
SYLVIA
I felt horrible telling Hunter now, but he needed to know the truth. No matter how much it hurt. Would he look at me differently now? Would he still love me? There was no time obsessing about that, because I heard Drake growling outside.
“I can smell you, Hunter. Come out, come out wherever you are!” his voice resounded through the hollow cavern.
Hunter grabbed my hand, his face serious. “We have to get Nina away from him. I’ll link Kane to help.”
I looked up at the hole in the ceiling of the cave. “Do you think he could reach down from there for her?”
“It’s worth a try.” His eyes went opaque as he linked Kane.
I watched as Drake’s menacing bulk filled the entrance. Taking a deep breath to ready myself for what was to come. Then I saw Nina.
“Mama!” she squealed in delight. She wriggled to free herself from Drake’s grasp,

SYLVIAWe met Alpha Damien and the rest of his warriors at the foot of the mountain. The descent wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be. Hunter helped me where the going was treacherous and I kept my focus on him and not on the yawning abyss. Kane joined us with Nina. He gave Hunter a bundle of clothes which he quickly put on.Nina ran to me when he put her down, but stopped in front of me, her eyes wide.“Mama, blood!” she pointed at my hand. Dried blood covered my hand up to my elbow and my face and T-shirt were also blood-spattered.“It’s okay, Baby. Don’t be scared.” I bent down to her. “See, I’m fine. I just really need a shower.” I laughed, trying to make light of the situation.She frowned; her little face scrunched up. “Where is Daddy?”I looked at Hunter, unsure of how to tell her that I killed her father. He turned Nina to look at him.

HUNTERThe guards walked me to the dungeon and I went quietly, swallowing the urge to rip them apart. They were only following my father’s orders. There was a rank smell in the place of sweat and excrement. How could they lock Marcelle in here in her condition? I felt awful to have her go through this situation. Kane would be here soon. If he found out they locked his sister in the dungeon he will go ballistic.“Our mother did this.” Blaze whimpered and hung his head. His shame and disappointment mirrored mine.“She’s no longer our mother. I don’t know who she is any more.” I was bitter.The guard opened the cell door for me and I went inside. There were silver chains attached to the stone wall, but to my surprise he didn’t chain me up. Probably afraid I would resist.“I’m sorry, Alpha. King Lucien ordered a trial. They are waiting for the elders of the council to a

SYLVIA The guards at the dungeon door let me pass without saying anything. The stench in the place was unbearable. I held my hand over my nose and breathed through my mouth, but it didn’t help much. It was cold and dark too, giving me the shivers. “Hunter?” I called out to him. “Here.” I saw him sitting on the floor in the cell. Relieved to see he was unharmed, but there was something in his eyes, he looked troubled. He got up and went to the bars where I stood. I reached out to him and he took both my hands in his and brought it to his nose to inhale my scent with his eyes closed. “Hunter…” My throat closed up with emotion. I wanted to scream, to cry, but most of all I hated seeing him caged like an animal. “It’s alright, Angel. I’m surprised they let you in here.” He touched my face and I placed a soft kiss in his palm. “Did you see anyone of my parents?” “I did. Oh, my love, what are we going to do? King Ulberg is threatening war. And your father…” I chocked on my words, tear

SYLVIA“I hope your sister keeps her mouth shut.” I told Frigg. We didn’t need more confrontation from the parents. “Your other sister? Where is she?”“Sigrun? Probably with Mother. They’re very close. She would do whatever they tell her. she hasn’t found her soulmate yet.” Frigg sighed. “I wouldn’t bank on getting her on our side, Sylvia.”I shrugged. It didn’t really matter. Our only hope was to expose Myra to the council and shift their focus away from Hunter and my friends.“Don’t worry about it. I have to go though. I left Nina with the kitchen staff. They will feed her too much cookies and sweet things if I let them.” I said, smiling at the thought of my little imp’s face covered in chocolate.Frigg hugged me again. I decided I really liked her. “Be strong, Frigg. Everything will work out.”She wiped a tear from her face. “I hope so, Sylvia. I really do.”I left her in the room to find Nina in the kitchen drinking milk and chatting happily to the maids.“There you are, baby girl
Alpha Hunter's Luna Chapter 44
SYLVIA“Bring in the prisoners.” King Lucien demanded.The royal guards entered with Hunter, Joffrey and Marcelle in their midst. There were silver chains on their wrists and feet. Tears slipped down my cheeks when I saw them. My fists balled so tight I felt my nails cut through my palms. The hurt I felt from it couldn’t come close to the hurt and anger I felt in my chest. Guilt gnawed at my insides to see my poor friend looking ghostly pale and sick. I wanted to jump up in outrage. How dare they treat a pregnant woman like that!Kira intervened. “Be still. They will chase you out.” She was right. I felt Myra’s eyes on me, waiting for one move from me and she will have me thrown out. Or worse.Hunter stared straight ahead at his parents. His lips were drawn in a thin line. For a moment he turned his head in my direction and gave me a brief nod and a smile. I tried to smile back at him but my lips were quivering too much. I was on the verge of bawling my eyes out. I had to stay strong
Alpha Hunter's Luna CHAPTER 45
HUNTER “I’ll be damned, Kane found his soulmate.” I said out loud. Not the best timing though. The elders are waiting for my proof and there’s my Gamma making goo-goo eyes at the youngest princess.King Ulberg looked as if he was ready to explode. Nana and Kane welded together, shamelessly making out in front of everyone. I could see Frigg was enjoying this little scene, because she sported an ear-splitting smile. Her eldest sister clapped a beringed hand over her gaping mouth.King Ulberg rushed over to the happy couple, his face scarlet. “This is an outrage! Get away from my daughter, you – you…” he sputtered.Kane growled at him, a rumble as deep as the sound of a freight train. Nana turned to her father.“Father, he is mine! I will not let you keep us apart. I have never felt like this.” She looked up into Kane’s face. “This is what Frigg meant, I understand now. We are connected.”She was tall but still Kane towered over her. The man was a giant. He looked down at his mate and I
Alpha Hunter's Luna CHAPTER 46
SYLVIAI sat in the rose garden alone. The late afternoon sun cast long shadows over the castle and the grounds. I closed my eyes to take in the sweet perfume of the roses and lilacs that abounded there. It calmed my overloaded emotions a bit. Hunter had so much bitterness and hurt flowing from him and I felt everything.Kira longed to go on a long run and I shared that feeling, but now would not be the right time. Soon we would be called back into the throne room to hear what the queen has to say.I was startled when Kane came to sit down next to me.“Luna Sylvia. I’m glad to see you look well.” his deep voice had an extra lilt to it which I suppose was because of him finding his mate. He looked happier than what I have ever seen him, his dark eyes glowed from it.“I guess congratulations are in order.” I chuckled.He grinned at me. “Not without problems though. Her father wants to kill me.” A frown deepened between his dark brows.“There has to be a way around this.” I sighed.“She’
Alpha Hunter's Luna CHAPTER 47
HUNTERI woke from my slumber when the door to my cell opened and the guard ushered me out. Joffrey and Marcelle were already out of their respective cages, Marcelle looking hollow-eyed and pale.“The council is ready for you, Alpha Hunter.” The guard said as he guided us along the narrow passages of the dungeon to the throne room. “Seems like they have come to a decision. We didn’t think it would be so soon.”I just grunted in reply. It was almost midnight. This had been one of the longest days in my life. The sooner it ended, the better. I heard Joffrey’s heartbeat sped up. He must be going out of his mind with worry for Marcelle.“We won’t go down without a fight, Joffrey.” I mind linked him.“Never, Alpha. I will fight by your side. Until death.” he linked back.“Until death.” I replied and hoped it won’t come to that.They were waiting for us, the council in their black robes and the remaining Alphas of some of our allied packs. My eyes searched for Sylvia but she was nowhere to
