All Chapters of The Luna of Rain: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

I left the hall out a pair of double doors that led to a patio overlooking a beautiful garden. I leaned my arms over the railing, the cool breeze washing over my dewy skin, and peered at all the different colored flowers. I didn’t even know this place existed.I had to get out of there. I couldn’t sit and watch the man I loved with my whole heart and soul dance with someone else. As much as I appreciated Micah, I hated dancing with him and was relieved when his mate found him. She was a stunning woman and I could feel the happiness coming from Micah the moment he realized she was his one.I hoped that by the end of the night, all the ranked wolves of this pack were mated. I was so close to telling Xander when we got interrupted. I knew I should have fought for him but I didn’t want to stick around in case he chose her over me.I needed the fresh air to ground me. The scent of all the different flowers was strong, the moon starting to peek out while the stars were beginning to splay ac

I felt my heart stop and all the blood drain from my body as Xander stiffened next to me.“It’s been so long since we’ve last seen each other. Come give your father a hug. I’ve missed you.”The words were ringing around in my head. I prayed to the Moon Goddess to please not let this be true.This was a dream right? It had to be.I took a step away from Xander, pleading to him with my eyes for him to tell me this was one big joke - that Arrick wasn’t his father. But I knew it was true when I saw the look of guilt come over his face.The man who killed my parents was the father of the person I was destined to spend my life with. The person the Moon Goddess made for me.I didn’t realize she could be so cruel.I looked between the two, trying to find any resemblance. Xander was built like his father and had the same color hair but his features and eyes must have come from his mother.I was going to be sick.“Xander,” I whispered, my words coming out shaky. “Please tell me this isn’t true.

I woke up the next morning alone, Raina’s side of the bed already cold. I sat up in a panic. Was she taken? Did she leave? Did she hate me because of who my father was?I checked the bathroom, the rest of my suite, her room next door but she was nowhere. I ran my hands through my hair, my heart beating rapidly at the thought of something happening to her or her leaving me.It had to be the latter because I would have been alerted to an intruder or attack.I connected with every warrior on duty. “Has anyone seen Raina?”I felt my fear increase with every ‘no’ I received until finally, one replied, “Yes Alpha. She told me to tell you she’s in the flower field if you wish to see her.”I released the breath I’d been holding. She was safe. She hadn’t left.I hurriedly ran down the stairs and out the front door, ignoring the looks I got from my ranked wolves. Storm shifted in a matter of seconds and we were off, running at full speed to the flower field I’d taken her after her first day tra

I felt my eyes go wide.“He… he’s the one who killed them?”Xander was visibly shaking and I could feel the intense rage flowing through him. I knew his mother and step father had been killed by rogues but not once did I ever suspect they were the ones affiliated with Arrick. Why would his own father kill his mother? The one person he had in this world who actually cared for him?“Xander,” I whispered. “Talk to me.”The only time I’d felt this amount of anger from him was last night when Arrick promised to take me. This was bad and I didn’t know how to help him.“He killed them, Raina,” he said so quietly that it was hardly a breath. “He had them murdered.”“Why would he do that?”He turned his head toward me and the stormy grey color of his irises worried me. “Because my mother moved on from him and he couldn’t handle it.”I couldn’t imagine how he was feeling right now. I know Arrick also killed my parents but at least it wasn’t one of mine killing the other. What he did was unforgi

I felt around in my mind, finding that small link to Hayden. I reached for it, tugging and felt as the connection went through.“Hayden?”There was a second of silence before, “My Queen?”I blew out a breath. It worked.“Hayden, is there any way you can come back to the pack? I need to meet with you.”“Will… Will you kill me?”I snorted. “No Hayden, like I said before, I have no desire to kill you.” I paused. “I want to free your family and the others.”His shock was strong down the mindlink. “You do?”“Yes,” I said firmly. “And I need your help.”“I will be there tomorrow.”“I will see you then and I promise no harm will come to you.”I closed the mindlink and looked at everyone gathered, save for Xander. I was still hurt by his earlier words. “He’ll be here tomorrow.” I turned to Micah. “Can you make sure no one attacks him? I promised he’d be safe.”Micah nodded. “I will warn the warriors not to touch him.”“So,” began Alpha Merrick. I held my breath, waiting to hear what he had to
