บททั้งหมดของ His Midnight Luna: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

XAVIER“Then we have a problem.”Her father’s words hung in the air, the tension in the room becoming even think. I didn’t know that was possible, but I didn’t care about his threats, his words, or his presence. All I cared about was Mia and no one is going to stop me from getting her.Every cell in my body was screaming at me to just grab her and take her away from this place and him.Kane was clawing at my insides, demanding I shift. Demanding I tear through every single person standing between us and our mate.‘Mate said stay. Mate needs us.’“Yes,” I growled internally. “I know.”But I'm not going to just drag her out and insist she listens to me. That is what everyone, from her father, to her shitty fiance have been doing for all her life. I’m not here to be like them. I’ll be different and give her a choice.Mia's hands were gripping the windowsill so tight her knuckles were white. Her eyes were wide, confusion, fear and relief all swirling.She’d said she didn’t want me to leav

MIA“I’m not… entirely human.”Xavier’s words echoed in my head and I tried to make sense of it. Well, it was pretty simple and there wasn’t really anything to break down. But still, not entirely human?What does that mean? There are sub sub-humans or something else entirely?What did that even mean?My heart pounded and I felt my hands start to shake. My heartbeat was so loud, I wouldn't be surprised if he could hear it.Rationally, I knew I should pull away, maybe even be scared and run. That’s what every smart person would do.Apparently, not me. Because I didn’t move. Because somewhere deep inside, I think I already knew.The glowing eyes. The speed. The strength. The way those men moved when they crashed through my window.The wolves in my dream.“You’re a wolf,” I blurted. There was no ounce of doubt in my mind that I was right.He didn’t say anything right way but he went completely still, even his breathing stopped.His body remained tense against mine. He didn’t say a word. I

XAVIERI ignored the looks Falcon and I got as we walked through the packlands. She wasn’t kidding when she said the pack knew. But I didn’t care what they thought.Someone had left clothes on the porch when we got there.I shifted and pulled them on mechanically. The fabric felt prickly and uncomfortable against my skin.My father sat behind his desk, his expression unreadable.“Sit,” he said without preamble.I didn’t move. “I need to find—”“Sit. Down.”The alpha command rolled over me. My body obeyed before I could fight it.I dropped into the chair across from him, my jaw clenched.“Her father called,” my father said.I went very still. “What?”“Mia’s father called about ten minutes ago.” My father leaned back in his chair. “Apparently his daughter has been taken by her ex-fiancé.”The words didn’t make sense at first. I just stared at him.“Ex-fiancé?” I repeated, rage burning in my veins.“Silas Alaric. Apparently he’s been tracking her for weeks and has been waiting for an opp

MIAI held my breath as the door swung open slowly and I saw Silas standing in the doorway.He looked exactly the same as always. Wearing an expensive suit like he was heading to a business meeting.Like he hadn’t just kidnapped me.His eyes found mine. Cold, calculating with something dark that made a shiver run down my spine.“You’re awake,” he said. His voice was calm, almost pleasant as he flashed that sick and twisted smile which only made him look more psychotic. “Good. I was starting to worry I gave you too much.”I backed away until my legs hit the bed frame.“Stay away from me.”His smile widened but it didn’t reach his eyes.“Now, Mia. Is that any way to greet your fiancé?”“You’re not my fiancé.” I said through gritted teeth. “I left you."“Yeah, well you were being delusional.” He stepped into the room. The door closed behind him with a heavy thunk. “You were confused and lost. But you’re home now.”“This isn’t my home!” My voice shook as I looked around the tiny room. “Yo

XAVIERThe remaining three men scattered across the field, trying to find cover.Silas dove to the side, shouting orders I couldn’t hear over the ringing in my ears.My eyes drifted to Mia who was still on her knees, her hands tied, completely exposed. My only goal was to get to her and get her out of this place.I didn’t think before I moved, shifting mid-run. I landed on my feet and continued the rest of the way.I positioned myself between her and the gunfire just as a bullet whizzed past my ear.Mia let out a small yelp, followed by a sharp intake of breath. I glanced at her urgently to make sure she was fine. Nothing was amiss. Then I returned my attention back to the scene unfolding in front of me.“Xavier,” I heard her whisper. As much as I wanted to turn and hold her close and tell her everything isgoing to be alright. I couldn’t do any of that right now.More gunshots coming from the tree line made relief wash over me. They are finally here.Two more of Silas’s men went down
