All Chapters of THE HIDDEN LUNA: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Ryley I stared at my son as I processed what he had just told me. “You did what?” I yelled, standing from my seat. I moved around the coffee table where Channing was sitting and started to pace. “Baby, please sit,” Blake said and my attention snapped to him. “And you just let him do something like that. How could you let him kill someone, especially his father,” I screamed before my lungs constricted and it was hard to breathe. I know I should be grateful that he’s dead and I never have to deal with him again but Channing shouldn’t have been the one to kill him. And now he’s an alpha. “Mom, it’s okay. It’s not that bad,” Channing defended. “Not that bad,” I mocked. “Are you just going to give up your dreams to be an alpha now?” I questioned. “We haven’t decided anything yet, baby. We had been so worried about you. When the pack house exploded,” Blake’s voice faded as I was hit with a memory. “I was in the basement and then I was in a bunker under the house. My father had it i

Ryley I met Aspen at the bottom of the stairs by the front door. I know Blake told me to stay but this was my mother and I should be the one dealing with it, not Blake. And as much as I wish I didn’t have to face my past, it was time. It was time for answers. “Mom?” Aspen grabbed my arm when I walked towards the door. “It’s okay, sweetie,” I reassured him. He nodded before opening the door and stepping out before me. He was protecting me and the act brought tears to my eyes. I’m supposed to be protecting him. He’s my pup. My mother was crying as I walked down the stairs and into Blake’s arms. It was like looking at a ghost as I watched her cry and plead with me to talk to her. But when she called me Evelyn something snapped. “I haven’t been Evelyn in a very long time.” “Sweetie, I know you’re upset and you have every right to be but there is so much that you don’t know. Please just let me explain?” She begged. I looked behind her to see Eli leaning against a car. “You’re right,

Ryley I tip–toed out of our room before the sun came up. I didn’t want to wake Blake after the night we had and the two weeks of him not sleeping at the hospital. I couldn’t sleep any longer and decided to make myself a tea. After turning on the kettle, I noticed the time. It was almost time for the boys to be up for school. I wasn’t sure if they were going today but I decided to prepare breakfast. Even if they weren’t going. I know the two of them would be hungry. “You’re up early,” Channing yawned behind me as I was flipping pancakes. “Even after all that late–night fun,” Aspen exclaimed and I mentally facepalmed. Even in the basement, the boys could still hear us. “I’ll put noise–canceling headphones on the list, now pancakes,” I turned around and handed them both a plate stacked with food. I quickly turned back around and was thankful they didn’t say anything more. I was loud but I didn’t think I was that loud. I was finishing up the pancakes when strong hands wrapped around

Ryley I busied myself in the kitchen while the others took a seat at the dining table. My mind was racing with questions but ultimately I wanted to know why. Why was my whole life turned upside down? I didn’t realize I had stopped moving until I jumped when Blake’s hands wrapped around my waist and he snuggled his face into my neck. I had my hands on the counter by the coffee machine, bracing myself as I tried to take in much–needed air. “Breathe, baby, I’m right here,” he mumbled against my neck. I inhaled and exhaled a few times, calming down my racing heart. “Better?” I nodded, as I grounded myself. I didn’t need to fall apart now. I had to be the strong Luna I was born to be. Or some shit like that. I know if Lily was awake she would be scolding me. Blake grabbed mugs and I poured the coffee and helped him take everything to the table before taking a seat beside him. I felt my father watching me the entire time and I took a seat across from him. He looked the same, but older.

Ryley I sat in the window seat of our bedroom and watched the lake and forest behind the house. I was thinking over everything my father had told me. I do understand. I would do anything to keep Blake safe but I don’t think I would be able to give up my children. Even if they had found their mates and were happy. I would never be fully happy without them in my life. A man like my father just couldn’t walk away from his life as a mobster. I know I told him, I was cleaning up the packs but it would have put a target on my back. Powerful people don’t like it when their money stops. But Dorian and I had a plan. We were going to merge our packs and become the strong leaders we were raised to be. The worst part besides feeling abandoned by my parents was that I loved Dorian. He brought out this side of me that I hadn’t shown anyone until Blake. I was too scared to love someone as much as I loved Dorian. I believed I was fated to my enemy. To the person who took my parents and pack from m
