“Why not?” Niklaus met Pierce’s burning gaze without so much as blinking. “She is my nephew’s mother, and in our pack, we value our females. We protect them. She’s technically family, so I don’t see why it’s strange for me to involve myself in her matters.”

“The problem is that, under our laws, she’s a criminal.” Pierce glanced at me, and the look on his face was almost violent. “She hid the Alpha’s son.”

My chest tightened. I wanted to look away, to make myself smaller beneath the weight

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 83: Back to the City

    PierceBy late afternoon, I had spent more than six hours inside the regional council complex two cities north of Crescent City.The chief official presented one case after another while prosecutors questioned suspects and witnesses beneath the watchful eyes of the council. Because several of the cases involved crimes committed across pack territories, my presence had been requested as Blackthorn’s Alpha.I sat at the long table reserved for ruling Alphas, watching the proceedings with growing impatience. Most of the accused were guilty. I could smell their fear every time they lied, yet the prosecutors continued asking the same questions in different forms as though repetition might somehow force the truth from their mouths.The final hearing concerned the movement of illegal funds through Crescent City. Several shell businesses and private accounts had been traced back to people employed by Councilman Lowe. There still wasn’t enough evidence to accuse Lowe directly, but there was mo

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 82: Eyes of a Witch

    RuelleIn the end, I couldn’t do it.I couldn’t kill them.No matter how many reasons I gave myself, I couldn’t force the words of a death curse past my lips. The thought of watching the life leave their eyes made my stomach twist. And even if I succeeded, their deaths would possibly create a much larger problem.But I couldn’t leave the two werewolves unharmed, either.The binding curse was already weakening. Fine cracks of blue light spread along the invisible restraints, and Councilman Lowe had managed to pull one arm several inches away from the wall. Once he broke free, I doubted I would survive long enough to reach the study door.So I chose another curse.Something stronger than the first, but not fatal.I would shatter the bones in their legs and curse the injuries so their werewolf healing couldn’t repair them immediately. They would recover eventually, but not soon enough to chase me through the estate.It would give me time to escape.And after being dragged from a cab, str

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 81: Kill Him First

    RuelleThe vehicle passed through a pair of tall iron gates and continued along a private road lined with carefully trimmed trees. Rain streaked the tinted windows, blurring my view of the estate until the mansion appeared through the gray curtain.It was enormous.The sprawling three-story structure was made of pale stone and dark glass, its sharp modern design softened only by the ivy climbing one wing. Men in dark uniforms guarded the entrance, some carrying guns while others relied on the far more dangerous weapons hidden beneath their skin, their wolves.The SUV stopped beneath the covered entrance. The werewolf who had captured me climbed out first, then dragged me after him by the arm.His fingers dug into my flesh through my damp blouse. I wanted to struggle, but I forced myself to remain still. Fighting him now would only waste what little strength I had left.I couldn’t outrun a werewolf in my current condition, especially with my hands tied and half the estate watching. My

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 80: No Escape

    Ruelle“Wait,” I said, tightening my grip on the bag. “The man you’re looking for ran into the forest.”The man’s gaze dropped to the leather bag in my lap. That was all the evidence he needed. He seized my hair and dragged me out of the cab.Pain tore through my scalp as the ribbon came loose, sending my hair tumbling around my face. The paper bag of books fell from my knees and landed in a puddle.“Let go of me!” I grabbed his wrist, but he was far stronger. “I don’t know that man!”“You lying bitch.” His grip tightened. “You’re obviously working with that traitor.”“I’m not!”Another man stood beside the driver’s window, questioning him in a low voice. The frightened driver glanced at me before shaking his head.“I picked her up alone,” he said. “That boy forced his way into the cab. I don’t know anything else.”The werewolf questioning him looked toward the brute holding me. His gaze fell upon the bag before he gave a curt nod.Apparently, the driver’s explanation wasn’t enough.T

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 79: Trouble

    RuelleFor the rest of the day, the only thing I could think about was what Pierce and I would discuss when he returned.‘I’ll miss you.’His words didn’t leave my mind the entire day. They surfaced while I helped Ren with his lunch, while I sat with him during his afternoon break, and again that night when I lay in bed staring at the ceiling.I hadn’t answered Pierce. I had been too stunned, and of course far too embarrassed, to form a proper response. Thankfully, he hadn’t pressed me for one. He had merely given me one last smile before leaving, as if my silence had told him enough.Arrogant beast.The following day, while Ren was occupied with his lessons, I decided to visit the central district. I needed a few books to fill my spare time, and more importantly, something capable of distracting me from the thoughts of Pierce.Before leaving, I asked Jenna if she needed anything. She was reluctant to send me on an errand, but after I insisted that I would already be passing through t

  • Runaway Luna is Hiding the Alpha's Heir   Chapter 78: He's Leaving

    Ruelle“Stay here,” Pierce ordered.Annoyance flashed in his eyes as he turned toward the door, though annoyance seemed too mild a word for it. His face had gone rigid, every trace of warmth replaced by the cold authority of an Alpha prepared to murder whoever had interrupted us.He released me with obvious reluctance. The loss of his hands left me strangely cold.As he crossed the room, I hurried into the shadowed corner beside the wardrobe, where I wouldn’t be visible if someone glanced through the doorway. I pressed a hand to my burning lips and tried to quiet my breathing.Pierce opened the door only a fraction.Lawrence’s voice drifted through the narrow opening, and after a brief exchange, the two men walked away. Their footsteps faded along the corridor.I waited for a full minute, listening for movement outside. When the hallway remained silent, I slipped out of his room and hurried toward the staff wing.By the time I reached my own door, I was panting as though I had run acr
