All Chapters of Claiming his Runaway Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Shadows of the PastThe ride back to the safehouse was quiet. Tense. Lucian’s hand gripped the steering wheel like it was the only thing stopping him from bursting.I stole a glance at him.There were lines around his mouth I hadn’t noticed before. Shadows under his eyes. He looked like a man who’d been to war and maybe he had. Because losing me, losing our boy without knowing it, was a battlefield neither of us had planned for.“I never stopped loving you,” I whispered.His knuckles went white on the driving wheel. “Then why did you let me think you hated me?”“Because I thought if you hated me, you’d be safer.”He didn’t answer.When we reached the safehouse, the air was electric with anxiety. My heart pounded as we stepped inside. There were lots of shadows over the place. I thought something wasn't right.It's too quiet.It was natural for Lucian to reach for his gun. "Where is he?""The back room is his." I moved quickly, and with each step, my fear grew. "Elias?"Keep quiet."El

Tangled Between Truth and TemptationLucian moved very quickly and quietly, like a ghost, getting past security. I went after him while holding Caden close to my chest. Damien's cameramen circled us in the press pool. Cameras caught me, my son, and the look of a guy who said he was our rescue. It made my chest feel cold.I didn't pay attention to the flashes and faced Damien directly."You took our son."He laughed. "He's now a sign." Something.Lucian came up behind us and put his jacket over Caden. "You made him worse than he was."Damien gave a grin. "Let's see what's left of him after his mom tells us everything."I looked right into Damien's eyes. "Okay. It will be our story, not his, I promise.I felt Lucian pull me close. His voice was low. "Tell him."I took a deep breath."Eight vials of your blood and DNA were used." They were given to your son the day he was born. "He holds more of me than any man could ever have." Tears made it hard for me to speak.Lucian wrapped his arms

Rain of the Ruins He grabbed my hand and pushed me back.He growled, "Stay behind me."I shook my head, though."No." "I'm no longer hiding."He looked at me with pain and pride in his eyes.I said with a steady voice, "I'll stand with you." "Fire, shadow, and blood can kill him together."He shut his eyes and took a deep breath. "Together."We stood together.Damien gave a smile and walked back into the dark."You can choose." "Crown him or die with him."He was lost in the trees.Micah had bright eyes.He moved forward."Come."He looked at me.Suddenly, we heard footsteps behind us.Six people in masks came out. The silver blades sparkled."They're waiting," Micah said in a low voice.Lucian put his hand on my shoulder."This is where we stand."But when I saw the boss in a mask walk into our circle and take off his hood, my heart stopped.Damien wasn't there.It was my mom.We were her son, her daughter-in-law, and her family, but she didn't recognize us; she only gave us orders.

Tangled in Secrets and Heat "Loving Dominic was like dancing with fireI craved the warmth even when it burned me."He had both hands on either side of my face, pressing me against the wall. His rough, desperate eyes were crashing into mine as he breathed. Dom growled, "Say it!" His voice was low and broken. Let me know if you still want me, Evelyn. My heart was beating really fast and hard. I wanted to push him away with all my might. Everything but my heart. "I never stopped," I mumbled, and before I could stop myself, the words came out. When his lips hit mine, they hurt so badly that the last bit of reason I had left crumbled away. The dark, desperate, and powerful taste of him pulled me under like a current I couldn't swim against. He held me up with one arm around my waist and the other cupped the back of my neck, controlling the kiss like it was his life. As we kissed, I gasped, "I should hate you." "You should feel bad about what you did to me." He snarled at my mouth,

Throne of Shadows “Dominic said the woman I feared most was dead but as her voice echoed through the ruined safehouse, I realized he had lied.”One shot hit the wet ground, making a loud noise. Dominic fell next to me and grabbed his side. His shirt was covered in blood. Mikey screamed from the car. Fear and anger rushed through me like waves of the tide. "Come with me!" I got down on my knees and put my hand on his wound. "I'll always stay with you," he said in a weak voice. Tears made it hard for me to see. "Why did you not tell me she was still alive?" "Gasped!" "I believed you would never forgive me." I turned my head away. It wasn't a question of forgiveness anymore. You had to stay alive with him. I helped a weak Dominic get to the car. Micah was crying out. As I turned on the engine, I realized that our enemies were close. Not far enough. "Where to?" I asked, my voice shaking. Lucian said in a low voice, "There's an old family estate tucked away in the woods." It was h
