I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the impact. The pain.

Was this going to be my end? Was history going to repeat itself?

All this time, avoiding everything all to end up like this. Things being different but the same.

Maybe I shouldn't have egged her on. I should have been softer. Begged and pleaded for my life. If not for anything else, for the sake of my child.

But I hadn't. And if time was turned I probably wouldn't. Not after everything I'd heard.

How ironic it was that I'd caused my own death, this time more directly. A twinge of guilt and shame filled me.

‘I'm sorry,’ I whispered to my child. Perhaps I deserved it but they didn't.

But it was too late. I was dying and so will they. I wasn't foolish to beg the moon goddess for a second chance. The life I'd lived had gone past my expectations, no matter how many regrets I left behind this time, I'd have no choice.

Time seemed to tick on as the screams reached my ears. Waiting for the hot searing pain that foll

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Authors Note

    Good day to everyone who has come this far. I sincerely hope you enjoyed the ending of this piece of fiction. It has been a pleasure to write such a book unlike any other under my current roster. In all honesty, I went through a rollercoaster of emotions throughout this period with hesitation on the ending and if there should be more extra chapters or a more fitting epilogue. Yet after reconsidering it, I realised it was simply my reluctance to leave. Indeed, all stories must come to an end and in this case especially, I believe this ending is good enough. It is time to start anew and head to another path, another Rebirth... On that note, I am glad to state that there will be a second book in this world, making it (possibly) my first SERIES! As I must have stated (or implied) it will lead onto the rebirth tale of the Mysterious Katrina in this book and the hated (and perhaps... redeemable?) antagonist of this book Alistair. It might not have many if at all any instances of our l

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Chapter 79: Never Letting Go (The End)

    Tristan At first, there came silence. Next, an uproar. There was only a brief moment of numbness to process the sight before me. Her words before everything snapped into place. Water broke….water… that meant. Valerie was giving birth. She was giving birth! In a burst I swept her up in my arms in an instant, supporting her back as she held my shoulders. The wetness on the other end sent my heart racing faster. “Call the pack doctor! Now!” I said frantically, barely hearing my own voice admits the clamors and blood rushing in my ears. I felt like I was going insane. My heart hammered in my chest, blood rushing in my ears, my primal instincts taking control. ‘Mate. Birth…mate…’ I was suffocating. Amidst the clamors of the crowd I didn't know. What did I do now? I had to keep her safe… our baby…birth… “Tristan,” her voice like clear water struck through my senses. I turned to her dumbfounded clarity sparked in an instant at the sight of her dark gaze. Her face was furrowed sligh

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Chapter 78: Mine

    Valerie Immediately after saying those words the result was immediate. There was no anger, no indignation, no pride like the past. They looked completely shattered. My mother's breath seemed to be heavier in the room like she was holding back tears. My father, holding her together looked resigned but there were tears now in his own eyes, his body trembling slightly. “But…” I added, and the world seemed to grow still again. Their eyes met mine before I spoke. “I accept it.” As soon as I held the box, my mother's grip soon dissipated, her sniffles filling the room as she moved back, as if she was afraid of me taking it back. I didn't pay any attention and looked over at it. For the sake of the one who had yearned for her parents' love before, I would accept this token of my heritage. Not to wear, but to pass into the future. Looking back up I nodded towards them, giving an indifferent look. “Thank you mother, father. You may leave now. I have to prepare.” I said. I didn't

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Chapter 77: Heirloom

    Valerie The tension was so thick one could slice it open with a claw. I could feel the penetrating stares of everyone around me, but the two pairs of eyes facing me in the doorway held me stuck to the spot. A tight knot formed in my throat. I felt myself, held back in time, pushed back to a similar moment years ago. They, appearing in the midst of my preparations, seeing me, a scared young girl and saying those harsh words, warning me to not embarrass them. I hadn't minced those words when I'd told Tristan that day. Pain registered in my senses. Returning to reality I realised that it was the sensation of my fingers biting into the skin of my hand. More seconds passed in silence as I faced them. An audience? What did they want from me now? The place seemed to grow more antsy as time passed by. After not seeing me respond Mina seemed to think the worst and turned to them. “Sir, Madam, Im sorry but Luna Valerie doesn't want to see you-” “It's okay.” I finally interrup

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Chapter 76: Ready

    1 MONTH LATER Valerie ‘It was time,’ I thought to myself, staring at my reflection in the mirror. Everything that had happened felt like a dream come true. It was hard to believe that just a month ago, Tristan had proposed to me. Soon after, it was formally announced to the pack who were overjoyed. Time flew by so quickly after that. And now, I was here. The makeup was light. My hair was in a light updo, my tresses curled into waves that fell like a waterfall. The embroidered blue dress I wore was so light, appearing like spider silk weaved against my body. It flowed elegantly, hiding the baby bump within. Brushing over it, disbelief filled me. How on earth did I get here? My mind flew to the past, not the past life, but beyond that. To the rushed Mating Ceremony we'd had years ago. I couldn't remember the details of the ceremony itself aside from the fear and uncertainty, the hurt from my parents words and Tristan's indifference. I could recall however that I had sto

  • Loving the Reborn Luna: Never Letting Go    Chapter 75: Mate and Luna

    Valerie The silence itself seemed to pause a fraction before I slowly exhaled.I had expected this question somewhat. Mina, ever so kind and attentive, must have been itching to say this but never had the right time. During this month, whilst talking on many other topics we'd both avoided it, especially when it entailed her leaving.But I wasn't surprised at her plan to leave the pack and I already had my answer to her question.“Yes.” I said in a quiet, unembellished tone. During the time I'd spent in the Shadow Moon pack whilst sorting through my own emotions, I had thought it over. It had fully cemented over the past month.Dropping the bowl temporarily, I rested against the bedpost, smiling at her.“You must be worried about my decision. If something happens to Tristan or the pack does something to affect me again. Trust me, I'd thought that over too.” I said,In the past, I thought starting over was my only way out. To leave and abandon the pain, the pressure from the titles I
