~Luke's pov~
I growled. “What do you want with her because I swear if you dare hurt her one bit I will tear you apart slowly and set the pieces on fire. Am I clear?”
“Yes, now shut up and listen to what I have to say.” She replied hastily.
I hesitated thinking about all the ways I come attack her if she goes back on her words; after finding a couple of ways I started walking with her towards an old rotting log. I sat down next to her and listened to her start.
“Luna has what everyone wants; she’s carrying the four destined children.”
I hissed after hearing her bring up the babies Luna is carrying. “Listen you cruel hearted demon, you can do whatever you want with me; you can take away the life I always wanted, you can take away my heart beat, my passion for life, my happiness, but you can’t take away Luna and her babies. She means the world to me old woman.”I paused for a moment and I stared directly into her eyes. “Do you not understand how it feels to love someone so much? How they make your heart beat a million beats per minute just by talking to you, how they make you get butterflies to fly all over the place in your stomach when they touch you, how you get tongue tied when they ask you a question, how just seeing their face for just a second can light up your whole day. Do you not know what love is? Hah, what a stupid question, of course you wouldn’t. After all, you killed your husband, my father, you heartless bitch.”
She flinched for a second before composing herself. “I-I didn’t mean to kill him..” Her voice softens. “Daniel didn’t want two males in the family; he thought it would ruin his chance of ruling so he offered me two options. The first was either I kill your father and keep you or I kill you and keep my beloved husband.” A tear dripped down her face slowly as she cried harder. “I-I loved him so much Luke; you guys were my world. I told Daniel that I couldn’t kill your father so he killed him.” She fell to the ground sobbing hysterically.
I stared at her.. My mo-mother on the ground crying; I felt my heart break a little. I squatted down next to her and looked at her weaken figure. “Is this the complete truth because if it’s not and I find out, you will die.” I stated blankly in a monotone voice.
“I am not lying to you, I swear, cross my heart.” She replied staring at me with her piercing red eyes; bags underneath them; looks like she hasn’t got any sleep or blood for a while now.
I held her hand and helped her to the feet. I sighed heavily and said, “Okay, I believe you, mother. However, continue telling me about Luna; I want to know.”
“Very well, might as well sit down for this.”
I sat down next to her and waited for her to continue our conversation. “Daniel wants the babies and he will stop at nothing to get them. I left his side; he may be my father but he will never be what I look up to. I want to help you and your mate.”
I frowned. “Is there more to this?”
“Yes. Luna’s dad; Alpha of the Crescent pack is teaming up with Daniel. Daniel manipulated him into think that when they get their hands on the babies, both of them would split the children and rule together. Silly old man; he is so hungry that he doesn’t see the truth. Luna is his daughter for god’s sake.”
My brows furrowed and I grew angrier. “WHAT KIND OF FATHER DOES THAT TO HIS DAUGHTER?!”
“A few more things, they are planning an attack soon, however, I do not know when but I do know that they will be very strong and cruel. They have teenagers your age trying to get onto Luna’s good side and then betray her. You need to be careful and look out for her. All the ones working for Daniel and Luna’s dad, Steven, are ruthless. However, you can tell them apart by their eyes and marking. Their eyes should have a dull, hungry, glassy look to it and they all have a tattoo of a royal crown with a knife staked through it with a puddle of blood underneath, somewhere on their body.”
I looked at her confused. “Why that tattoo? What is the meaning behind it?”
“It means power is worth dying for.” She said quietly. “They’re just asking for death, four babies cannot feed thousands of power hungry people. They are all too greedy and selfish to see their wrong until the damage has already been done.”
We wrapped up our conversation and ran back to the pack house.
~Luna’s pov~
I blinked as I felt a gush of wind fly pass me. When I opened my eyes again I saw Luke next to some woman who looked similar to Luke. Jayden can back into the room after he caught the stranger’s scent.
“Luke, who’s that?” I asked.
“She’s my mother.” He stated expressionless.
“Hello dear, my name is Sandy.” She smiled sweetly and pulled me into a tight bear hug.
“Can’t. Breathe.” I gushed out.
She loosened her grip on me and apologized. “Sorry deary, I just wanted to meet the legendary Luna Taylor.”
I stared at her in confusion. “Legendary? For what?”
She looked at Luke in a moment of confusion before turning back to look at me. “Why for your babies of course.”
I looked at Jayden then at Luke before staring directly at her, a panic expression filling my hypnotic green eyes. “Babies? What babies? Why does everyone keep saying that?!”
She turned to Luke and Jayden. “You guys don’t know?”
They both turn to look at her then me and shook their heads. “Well deary, after you mated with Jayden and Luke, you conceived four babies.”
My eyes looked ready to pop out of my head. “Four babies? What the hell, that’s impossible, I-I, how does everyone know this but us?”
She smiled. “Let’s go get pregnancy tests. Actually no, Luke run down to the pharmacists and bring back two pregnancy tests for Luna.”
Luke smiled. “Okay, I’ll be back in 10 minutes.” He walked over to me, kissed my lips lovingly before rushing out the door.
While Luke was gone, Sandy, Jayden, and I sat down on the couch and talked. Sandy filled me and Jayden in about what she warned Luke about. After she finished, Jayden stomped out of the room with steam coming off of him.
~Jayden’s pov~
How can her father do that to her? It’s his daughter; his own flesh and blood. I stormed out of the room after listening to Sandy. I will beat the crap out of that asshole; no one will hurt my Luna and our children. She’s my whole world; a world that me a Luke shared. Tears fell down my sweaty face as images of Luna being harmed popped into my head. No, NO. I refuse to let her be harmed by those dicks. The packs will be prepared! I came back into the room just as Luke got back from the pharmacists with two pregnancy tests.
He gave Luna the tests and a gallon of orange juice to help her generate enough pee for the tests. Luna thanks him before going with Sandy up to our room.
~Luna’s pov~
I nervously thanked Luke for the tests before taking everything and going to my room with Sandy. I took gigantic gulps of the orange juice and waited five minutes with Sandy next to me.
“San-Sandy? What if I really am pregnant? I can’t take care of the babies; I don’t know what to do.” I sniffed managing to stop my threatening tears.
She hugged me softly and lovingly like I always wished my own mother would do. “Deary, you’re not alone. You have me, Luke, and Jayden. We’re in this as a family and don’t you ever dare forget it. I will do whatever in my power to protect you, the unborn babies, and my sons.”
I smiled and hugged her tighter. “Thank you, you’re like the mother I always wanted but never got. I feel a whole lot better now.” I stood up confidently. “Let’s do this!”
I grabbed the tests and pulled them roughly out of the box and started walking to the bathroom. I took off my panties and held the stick underneath, peeing on them. I finished peeing on the tests so I got up and washed my hands. My hands shook as I sat down next to Sandy waiting for the results to come in.
