All Chapters of Banished Luna's Second Chance Mate: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

[ Celeste ]“Celeste, you don’t have to come with us. This is risky and I don’t want to see you getting hurt by any means.” Darius said to me through mind link while we were running into the dense woods with our men power, we were hundred in number, Alpha Harris also insisted to send his warriors as they have more accurate knowledge of the area.“We’ve already come this far and you need to put your faith in me, I’ll be fine.” I assured him but I couldn’t shake off the fear I was feeling.Eighteen years have passed but I couldn’t forget the bloodbath, heinous corpses lying everywhere and rogues plucking on their flesh. After all these years, I am going to see them again.But this time, to slay them.We ran deeper, the sun was gradually descending westward.The crushing of dried leaves and twigs under our paws. Soon, the clusters of trees became more dense, it was difficult for us to navigate through the woods and creepers. Darius was leading us.Suddenly, his paws stopped when he reach

[ Celeste ]Twenty-four hours had passed but there was no improvement in Darius’ condition but his fever cooled down. I hadn’t left his side even for a second, my body was giving up, I also had injuries but I cared least about myself.I just want my mate to wake up. He wanted to save me till last moment.“Celeste, please go and rest for a while. You haven’t slept for last two days. In this way, you’ll fall sick.” Elena, who came with a bowl of soup for me, said placing her hand on my shoulder.“I won’t find rest until he opens his eyes. I don’t want to leave him, our closeness will help Knox to hold on.” I said refusing to leave my mate alone.“I am not asking you to leave, you can lay here, I can arrange a small cot for you.” She suggested but I remained quiet, just reeling the moment when Lucian attacked Darius. He was waiting for the moment.“Please, at least, have this soup. I don’t want you to fall low of energy. You are not only his mate but also the Luna of this pack and in his

[ Celeste ]“Luna, I think we should increase the security at our north-west border. The area faces the stream and the rogues are better at crossing them than us.” Beta Keith discussed our possible strategies to guard our borders from every side because we don’t have any clue where are they hiding.We were returning from our visit to our border with Red Moon Pack. I was dreading that Jesper or his patrolling team wouldn’t see us but nothing of that sort happened. We were driving back since my body was still recovering and over-exerting might cause me serious health problems.“Hmm, let’s discuss it with Darius first because we can’t take any step without his permission.” I said.“I have never seen him like this before.” He said after a brief silence and I turned to face him with a frown because I didn’t get his words.“Like what?” I asked.“The way he was looking at you and how he was more protective towards you during the fight, you’ll say that it’s mate’s instinct but I know him sinc

[ Celeste ]The woman, who is my mate, stared at me with her big blue eyes. Those sad and misty eyes stirred something within me.I have realized that I feel more than just the mate bond towards Celeste. Her face was the last thing I saw before slipping into darkness and her sweet words were the first thing I heard when I woke up.“What do you mean you won’t allow it? This is good for everyone. I am not blind, Darius. I can see how you, Elena and I are suffering. This is a mistake that Moon Goddess made. You didn’t deserve someone like me. Elena is a human but she won your heart because she knows you, your weakness and your strength. You should be with someone you love, not a forced relationship like ours.”“I am sorry if you feel this way, Celeste. I can’t deny the fact that I was in love with Elena and she is my good friend with whom I can share everything and she doesn’t judge me.” He said and paused to take a breath.My heart ached, it pains the same every time he mentions his love

[ Celeste ]I tried to keep myself busy throughout the afternoon. Darius took Elena to the city for a proper checkup by a human doctor. It was not easy for me to stay calm and help her but it was my duty as the Luna and administrator of the pack since Darius had given me all the powers to manage day to day life as I feel right.“Why did you not go with them when you have to sulk?” Kyra reprimanded me. She was furious at me since they left for the city alone.“It’d be awkward, Kyra and I don’t want to be a third wheel between them. Moreover, I have more work here.” I replied to her, rather trying to convince myself.“You said and I buy. Save it for Darius.” She rolled her eyes.Kyra isn’t pleased with me. She wants me to fight for our mate. If I allow her to do anything, she’d kill Elena in a blink.Darius proposed me to accompany them but I refused. I didn’t know why he asked me to go with them. Perhaps, he was trying to make a balance between us but I don’t want to share. Either he h
