Semua Bab Luna's Uprising : Bab 121 - Bab 130

Amelia’s POV:“An important question?” I think my breath just hitched while my heart pounds violently in my chest. Looking up at Jax just intensifies that feeling. My brain melts away to nothing.If I wasn’t so out of myself right now, I probably would have chuckled at Jax’s facial expressions right now. It’s a mix as if he wants to slam his head repeatedly against the next wall because he said something he hadn’t intended. On the other hand, he looks like he’s close to shitting himself. That second look is the one, stirring those butterflies deep within the pit of my stomach up.I think I already know what question that is. It should have dawned on me the way he’s set everything up today, down to every detail. He even made sure we washed our clothes from the date night, so we could have a decent date here, as he said. Minus my lingerie, he wrecked that night. Jax’s mouth gapes open and closes again. He repeats it a couple of times like a fish. It’s nearly comical to watch, but I am

I shriek at the weight, weighing me down to the ground.“Oh my god, where the hell have you been?” Tonya complains while she’s on top of me, together with her brother, hugging me as if I had been gone for months.Admittedly, one week without knowing what’s going on is very long, too. Even if time for me seems to have passed in a blink of an eye.While looking up at them, I simply muster a shrug, not knowing what to answer to that question, then I look over to Jax for help. I’m fairly sure he wouldn’t want me to spill the truth. It’s his secret hideout, after all. It wouldn’t be a secret hideout anymore if I spilt it right now.“That’s all? A shrug?” Tonya questions upset, getting off me and stemming her hands against her waist like Super Woman and pouts. “You go for a date, don’t come back, and then all I get is a shrug?”“It’s not her fault. She really doesn’t know where exactly we were. I just took her away. It wasn’t planned. We got snowed in. I’m sure Alex filled you in on that,”

Jax’s POVI called in an urgent gathering. Most of my people have already met Amelia. The most important ones were at the safe house. But the situation has changed since. At that time, things were still a mess, but now we’re engaged, and she’s officially the future Luna to this pack.Amelia walks up and down the hall nervously, tugging at her clothes. She’s wearing a dark blue pencil dress, Tonya has picked for her. Making her look like a businesswoman. “Do you think they will hate me? I mean, they all knew about Tiffany. I don’t have all that money she can provide or the power of the pack……” she trails off while fidgeting with her fingers.A soft chuckle escapes my lips. “Are you serious right now?”She looks surprised up at my tiny outburst, unable to understand why I think this is funny. I take her hands in mine and gently caress the ring she just had been fidgeting around on. “Amelia, you have more power than any of us. You are the true werewolf queen, the true Luna to all of us.

I’m startled by the loud roaring voice echoing through the arena. Jax, next to me, still seems to be searching for the source of the voice, while I am staring at the man causing it. He may be in his early fifties. I know I’ve seen that face from far off on some of Drake’s events. Even if I wouldn’t know him, the facial features are a dead giveaway of who he is.“This gathering is against any agreement we made,” he bellows across the arena angrily at Jax. “You declared an open war to me by dropping my daughter. This is your last chance to rectify the situation. Send that worthless mutt away. Banish her from all pack grounds, make her the rogue she truly is, and I will reconsider a war with you,” the Alpha of the Gold moon pack demands.The crowd, that had been cheering moments ago, now turns silent, looking back and forth between Jax and the Gold moon Alpha, waiting for what is to come next. Jax’s grip tightens on me.“I am sorry if I hurt your and your daughters pride. It was never my

“Jax! Jax! Jax!” I call out repeatedly, verbally but also through our mind link, feeling like I'm going out of my mind.No reaction. I can’t even feel him trying to connect with me in return. All I can feel is pain and cold. With Ben and Alex hot on my tracks, I pace through the chaotic state within the arena as fast as possible. I don’t even take much notice of what Emily and Sybil are doing right now.“Amelia!” I feel a little relief seeing Tristan limping towards me. But my heart drops the moment I realise there’s no Jax at his side. They were together. Jax should be with Tristan.“Where is he? Where is Jax?” I question panicked as soon as I reach Tristan.“He…… I…….. He saved my life,” Tristan chokes out, but his words just make me even more nervous. “Then, where is he?” Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely relieved that Tristan is alive and Jax saved him. But my guts twist into knots, seeing that Jax isn’t here next to him.“He…. He pushed me aside just on time before the bricks c
