Lahat ng Kabanata ng True Luna's Revenge: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Scarlett felt her heart race as she set foot again in a country once familiar and yet foreign to that of her old pack. And it had been five years since she'd last set foot in this place, and even now the memories have started. Towering pines, a howling of wolves in the distance it was like a nightmare from which she just couldn't wake up. But she hadn't come here for nostalgia. She was here to settle a score.The moon was low in the sky, throwing its weird light upon the woodland floor as Scarlett moved noiselessly, her footfalls measured. She had been training for just this moment, to be able to make Lucas pay for his sins. Her fists clenched at the thought of Lucas, the future Alpha, the boy she once trusted. Now he was a man she loathed.The pack was gathered at the edge of the clearing, partying over something she didn't give a damn about. Her eyes scoured the crowd for him, her heart hardening with each second that passed. Then she saw him.In the center stood Lucas, surrounded b

Scarlett lay on the ground. Heavier, Lucas pinned her, and she panted, gasping for breath. Her every instinct screamed at her to keep fighting, to push him off, but she was pinned. Her muscles burned, and her heart thumped in her chest to the primitive rhythm of anger and fear.Lucas's face loomed inches above hers, his eyes writhing with anguish, almost guilt, that Scarlett did not want to see. "Scarlett, stop this," he implored; his voice was strained. "You don't have to do this really.""I said, 'Get off me!' " Scarlett snapped, scrambling underneath him, but Lucas braced her body, his grip an iron chain over her face."Listen to me," Lucas begged, the tone of his voice pleading as tears welled in his eyes. "This isn't the way. We don't have to be enemies."A boiling fury ate into Scarlett because of his words. "You set us against each other!" she snapped, a dangerous quiver in her voice. "You betrayed me, Lucas. Betrayed each one of us."Lucas winced, as though she had struck him

As the echoes of battle died, Scarlett's heart pounded on. The Shadow Pack had retreated, taking Lucas with them as their prisoner. Eerie shadows were cast on the moonlit floor of the forest, with the tang of blood still fresh in the air."We've got to go," he said with a sense of urgency, his voice tight as he stood and tugged Scarlett to her feet. "Whatever's left of Lucas's pack could be regrouping. We're not safe."Scarlett nodded, forcing the gale of emotions inside of her. She had to put what had just happened about how close she had come to ending it all out of her mind. There was too much at stake.Rachel's eyes darted to where the Shadow Pack had disappeared into the trees. "Even so, do you trust them? They are creatures not easily given to honesty."Scarlett's jaw tightened. "We don't have a choice. We need them, and they know it. But we have to stay alert. They could turn on us at any moment."With every step further into the forest, there was this ticking clock as they pro

Blood and TruthOut of nowhere, Lucas yelled at Scarlett to check her left side. The surrounding noise made everything hard to hear.Mist hung low when wolves slammed into one another. Jaws cracked open misandry. Fur ripped as claws found purchase. Just then, Scarlett turned eyes, catching the blur of a Shadow Pack attacker lunging. Movement came sharp; her heavy brown shape thudded down, twisting through dirt to dodge.A fight broke out near the water. Sounds of howling rose fast. She stood with her few allies, pushing back as best they could. Yet it didn’t sit right. Wolves from the Shadow Pack kept veering off away from the clash.Out of nowhere, Rachel spoke up, her words slicing the air like ice. That moment, everything shifted.Down went Scarlett’s heart. Around she spun fast. Up on a little hill her cousin stood, curls dancing in the breeze. Not among the fighters was she. A finger aimed right fixed on Scarlett’s group.Rachel's lips lifted, though the look didn't match the war

Bonds and Betrayal.Into the woods they walked, Scarlett pressing closer to Lucas now. Each footfall sent a spike up her arm and her shoulder on fire. The wrap Emily wound so tightly kept leaking red, slow but steady.Soon we have to stop, Lucas murmured. Around her waist his arm held tight. Too much blood is leaving your body, he added.“I’m okay,” Scarlett said quietly. Still, it came out shaky, like a twig snapping underfoot. Trees swayed where they stood, their shapes smudging into gray.Emily walked ahead, scanning every shadow. “There’s an old hunter’s cabin not far. We can hide there until you heal.”Fingers slack around her wrist, Alex trailed slightly behind. Silence hung over the curlyhaired girl, thick and sudden. Gone were the biting jokes. Only a colorless face, gaze fixed low.Scarlett glanced back once. “Why, Rachel? I thought we were family.”Rachel lifted her head slowly. “You were always the strong one. The one with the bloodline. I got tired of living in your shadow
