All Chapters of The cheated Luna returns.: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Rhyder's POV. I let Grace convince me to wait until morning to talk to my father. She said that we both needed rest and she was already busying herself with cleaning Jackson's blood from the floor. But I knew her well enough to know that being exhausted and wanting to clean our home had nothing to do with it. Grace wanted answers just as much as I did. But she also needed time - time to process everything that happened and time to work through everything that Alexis had told us. Grace also wasn't ready to talk about what Meghan had done to her - how she had lied to her and used her for years. She wasn't ready to tell my parents the truth about the woman who was supposed to be her best friend. A woman she had trusted and had been betrayed by. She needed time to come to terms with it before she shared it with anyone else. Even though every fiber of my being was itching to know more, I could understand what Grace was going through. I was going through it myself. Not only did th

Rhyder's POV.When we stepped back into the kitchen, my mother stood immediately to pour us each a cup of coffee.My father gestured for us to take a seat. His expression was stoic, his shoulders tense. My mother was nervously chewing on the inside of her cheek."Did you at least get some sleep?"She asked as she set the cups down in front of us. Her voice was quiet, her eyes searching our faces for whatever we couldn't or wouldn't put into words."No."I was the only one that spoke. Grace only shook her head as she took her mug in both hands and alowly lifted it up to her lips."No, of course you didn't. That was a silly question."My mother waved a hand through the air as if she was trying to wave her question away. She sat back down next to my father and reached across the table for his hand.He wrapped his long fingers around her petite hand and caressed his thumb across the top of her knuckles.They exchanged a quick glance.He turned his head and our eyes met."Tell us what's go

Grace's POV. No! No! No! This is not happening! This cannot be happening! It was all I could think as I rushed toward the open window. I stuck my head out and called his name even though I knew that it was no use. "Tate! Tate! Tate!" Each one sounded more desperate than the first. My baby was gone. She took him. I trusted her and she stole him from me. How could she? I turned back around. Rhyder, Ronin, and Agetha were all staring at me. They all had the same desolate, haunted look in their eyes - the same look that I had in mine. Only, they couldn't possibly know the angst, the fear, the absolute desperation I was feeling inside. My baby was gone. Who knew what she was doing to him - what she had planned for him. I should have protected him - we should have kept him safe."Oh, Grace..."Agetha gasped, putting her hand over her mouth, as if the true gravity of the situation was only just dawning on her.Tears filled her eyes. She turned and buried her face against Ro

Grace's POV.It felt like time had slowed down and I was watching everything happen in slow motion.Rhyder pulled back on his haunches and lept forward throught the air with an incredible surge of power and strength.Meghan's eyes dragged throught the air as she watched his every move.She tossed Tate to the side like he was a dirty, used-up rag that smelled funny. He stumbled, but before he hit the ground, Ronin was there.He caught Tate and picked him up into his arms in one swift, effortless movement, turning on his foot and running back through the crowd. Agetha and my mother followed on his heels.Tate didn't cry. He didn't scream. He didn't make a single sound. He just disappeared into the night with his grandparents.My attention shot back to Rhyder and Meghan just as Rhyder reached her. He tackled her to the ground and the two of them tumbled head over heels in a whirl of limbs and fur and teeth.When they finally stopped rolling over each other, Meghan was also in her wolf fo

Grace's POV."Mommy... mommy... you have to wake up now..."His voice floated into my dream like birdsong, slowly lulling me away from an almost perfect dream.We were all together, Meghan wasn't dead, she didn't hate the pack, Rhyder or Ronin, and we were all happy."Mommy, come on. Sleepy time is over now. We have a very big surprise for you..."The birdsong quickly turned more peraistent and I reluctantly decided to pull away from that peaceful and happy place known as sleep.My eyes fluttered open to diacover Tate perched on the edge of my bed, with his hands twisted together in his lap and his face only a hair away from mine.The massive grin that he wore told me that he was up to something... yep, definitely up to something."Finally!"He sighed as he moved his head back just far enough so that he could look at me properly."It took forever to wake you up, mommy."I smiled at him, brushing my fingers through his thick curls."Well, I'm sorry baby. But what's the rush?"He sudden
