All Chapters of The Luna He Left Behind: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Asher’s Point of View We pass through Crescent Moon’s border without any resistance and my stomach tighten slightly. “This was too easy, wasn't it?” Peter mutters next to me, and I slowly nod my head. “Yeah... I know...” I reply quietly. We keep moving until the packhouse comes into view. Alpha Daniel is already waiting outside, standing stiffly with two men at his sides. I recognize one as his beta almost immediately. The other must be his gamma. As we slow down, Peter frowns slightly, his gaze sweeping over them, and he looks past them towards the packhouse. “What is it?” I ask him, but he doesn’t look at me. “Where is Alpha Daniel’s Luna?” He asks quietly, and my head snaps towards the group again. Daniel stands straight, his hands clasped in front of him. I scan the area, the porch, the doorway, the windows. But Peter is right, she isn’t there. “Maybe she is busy inside." I say, though even to my own ears the words sound hollow and the sinking feeling in my sto

Asher’s Point of View Daniel’s beta returns a few minutes later with a thick folder tucked under his arm. “This is everything we have. Movements, patrol routes, old alliances, supply lines. Some of it is outdated, but most of it is recent.” Elias says, placing it on the desk. “Sit.” I tell him before looking at Rowan. “You too.” Everyone takes a seat, and I open the folder quickly flipping through it. “So, tell us how Damon thinks.” Peter says and Daniel sighs. “He likes control. Not just physical control, but also psychological. He gives small freedoms and then rips them away just to remind you who owns you.” “So fear-based leadership ” Peter mutters and Daniel nods his head. “Yes, and he is calculated. He doesn’t lash out without a reason. Everything he does serves some sort of purpose.” “Then we have to assume that every move he makes now is deliberate. Including keeping your Luna alive.” I say and Daniel nods his head stiffly. I flip through th

Sienna’s Point of View“Mom! Mom!! It’s Christmas!”Aiden yells, bursting into my room like a tiny hurricane, launching himself onto my bed and bouncing on it..“I know. Good morning to you too.”I say smiling at him.“Can we open the presents now?” He asks excitedly, bouncing again but I shake my head with a smile. “Not yet, bug. We have to wait until everyone is awake and dressed.”He groans dramatically, falling onto his back on my bed. “But that takes forever.”He mumbles and I chuckle.“It really doesn't, but why don’t you help move things along by waking everyone else up?”I say and his eyes light up. “Really?”He asks and I nod my head. “Yes, really, but no yelling in their ears.”I say and he grins at me, nodding his head. “Okay!”He says excitedly as he jumps off if the bed and races out of the room, already shouting down the hallway.“Grandma! Grandpa! Uncle Derek! Aunt Ava! You have to wake up! It’s Christmas!”I laugh softly to myself and shake my head as I stand fro

Asher’s Point of View“This needs to move faster.”I say, trying to keep my voice level, even though every instinct I have is screaming at me that time is slipping through our fingers. The courtyard in the center of Daniel’s pack is crowded. Pack menbers standing in tight clusters, all of them uncertain, filled with fear and uncertainty. Children cling to their parents. Elders standing watching everything with sharp, distrustful eyes.Scott stands to my left, his jaw clenched tightly. Daniel is in front of us, his shoulders squared, trying to project confidence even though I can feel the strain rolling off him.We have been trying to get his people to evacuate, but there has been some... resistance...“We are not leaving. This is our home.”A man near the front snaps at Daniel.“And where were these ‘allies’ when our Luna was taken? Now we are just supposed to trust these outsiders?”Another woman asks and more murmurs begin to ripple through the crowd.“Enough.”Daniel says loudly.

Asher’s Point of View “Stay close.” I say quietly, crouching behind the low wall at the edge of the treeline. Peter, Daniel, and Rowan are with me, along with six of our best warriors, three from my pack and three from Daniel’s. Daniel crouches down next to me. “Are you sure this is going to work?”He asks. “It has to. We have done all we can to bait him out. The rest is up to timing and discipline.”“I hate waiting.” Rowan mutters under his breath, glancing at the shadows ahead. “Patience is survival. We move on my signal. No heroics. No unnecessary risk.”I say and they all nod their heads. Peter’s hand rests lightly on my shoulder. “We've got this.” He says and I nod my head, my eyes scanning the edge of the compound in front of us. The perimeter is tight, and guarded, but not impossible to breach. Damon’s men patrol in pairs, moving in slow, predictable patterns. I motion to Daniel. “Remember the layout Bianca described?” I ask and he nods his head. “Yes, follow thi
