All Chapters of Claiming his Runaway Luna: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Bloodline RenegadesThe night smelled of flowers and fear. We crouched behind the stone pond in Rhea’s secret patio. Moonlight gleamed off marble, and I held Aaron close just in case. Damien stood in the center, circled by rogue witches covered in dark hoods. He raised a bottle filled with bright red liquid. “Look at this,” he announced. “My newest weapon: hybrids grown from witch and shifter blood. They will be unstoppable.” My blood froze. “Stop this now, Damien,” Lucian whispered, deadly calm. His aura pulsed silver and strong. “I’ve dreamed of this power for years,” Damien answered, laughing quietly. "Tonight I got right to the point." The air was filled with a wave of tension. My tall and fierce wolf shook inside me. I leaned into Lucian’s back and felt his hand tighten on my waist. Sparkling power ran along the courtyard’s lines. My pulse was hammered. I put my hands up. The witches' runes were broken by the light that came from my hands. Golden sparks flew around. Magic b

Veil of Revelation"The air smelled of blood and lightning... and something was arising inside me." Smoke. screams. Shades. That's all I could see. Lucian grabbed my hand and held it as we ran through the broken-down Grand Hall. We heard screams of pain and chaos behind us as walls fell down and spells hit each other. Aaron was safe, thank the Moon Goddess. But that's not true. It got even worse: war had begun. "Keep your head down!" He barked and pushed a beam that was about to fall out of the way as we ducked into the hall of mirrors. "They are now after you." I knew. It was there for me. Something cold was moving through the layers of the cover. A tired and angry old thing is rising up inside me. We were out of breath and stopped in the hallway, where broken glass and lights kept flashing all around us. Dozens of broken Elaras looked back at me. Fear was something they all wore like it was nothing. Lucian came around and put his hands on my shoulders. "You fel

The Seal Is Broken When I looked at Damien, my eyes were shining silver and gold."Do you want power?" Take it.He smiled and lunged.I raised my hand, and fire shot out of my palm, hitting him in the air and throwing him backwards into the altar.He screamed as the fire burned him, but he didn't get burned.He just laughed.He spat, "You can't kill me with your light, Elara." "Because I gave it to you."Lucian got up slowly, and blood was dripping from his arm. "That's not true." "People of your kind can't make life."Damien's smile got bigger. “Right. We can twist it, though.He looked at me. "Ask your partner if he's ever thought about where your magic came from."My chest got tight.I spoke quietly, "No." "I had it from birth." The message"Damien said, "Lies." "Told to keep you in chains by the council."That's what I did.He turned his head away. "Do not pay attention to him. He's playing with you."Am I?" He said in a soft voice. "Am I just telling her what you were afraid to

One Soul For The Flame Damien laughed."Go ahead." Because if you can't, everything will end.The last flash of light cleared the dust to show:Lucian moaned and struggled to get up."Don't pay attention to him, Elara."I mean, how could I not?Damien smiled in a mean and calm way."You protect the realms by sealing the Flame." He will get burned, though. His life is the price. The link in his blood is strong enough to close the opening. "Do you not already know this?"I went cold. If I opened my mouth, nothing came out. I looked at Lucian from below.He put out his hand to grab mine."I'm not scared."My eyes hurt with tears.I said in a whisper, "But I am." "You're mine."It was a soft voice."We knew love could cost anything."When I saw him for the first time, he was cocky, mysterious, and impossible to touch. In the moonlight, the way his hand had touched mine. The first kiss. The fights. The way he held me after I had bad dreams. I loved how he saw me when everyone else saw me

The Red Oath As my heart beat fast, I held Aaron close. Lucian got down on his knees next to him and kissed his temple softly. His eyes were always on the hole in the middle of the room, where the living flame was. This was where old power was beating against the broken cover.At first, Damien stumbled out into the open. The void-blade he held was dripping with dark energy.He growled, "You can't win this." "I still have one more trump card."With a wild beauty, Lucian rose to protect us. "Give it a shot."Damien saw a shadow move in his eyes. "I hope you made the right choice."He put the blade right into the fire. The flame hissed, but it didn't burn him.Lucian moved quickly forward. I rose behind them, and the three of us were sucked into a powerful cloud.All of a sudden, Aaron slowly opened his mouth, and a blast of golden fire came out, blocking Damien's blade. The room was shaking. Shadows went away. Aaron made the flames bend to his will, which sealed the wound.Damien fell
