I Am The Lycan’s Luna

••• Colton’s POV •••

It had been a while since they went down to the dungeon. They should’ve found the rouges, shouldn’t they?

“Lucas, have you found them?” I asked my mate through our mindlink.

“Yes,” he replied.

“How are they?” I asked him nervously.

“They are fine. Chained, but only with minor injuries. We’ll free them now,” I heard him say.

I breathed out in relief to hear that the rogues were fine with only minor injuries.

“Shit,” suddenly I heard my mate curse.

My heart thumped wildly. Did something happen? “Lucas? What happened?”

I waited for his answer, but there was none.

“Lucas?” I asked, and still, there was no response from him, and I became alarmed.

“Lucas! Lucas, what happened?” I asked frantically. Why didn’t he answer me? Did they get caught?

I couldn’t sit still anymore and went to take my car key.

“Luna, where are you going?” Beta Nick stepped in front of me.

“Move,” I glared at him.

“I’m sorry, Luna, but Alpha has told us not to let you go anywhere,” he said politely.

“I said MOVE!” I said through gritted teeth.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t let you leave, Luna.” A moment after he said those words, more people came and surrounded me, stopping me from leaving.

“Move before I punch all of you,” I warned them.

“I’m sorry, Luna, but we can’t,” Beta Nick kept saying.

I felt enraged by their action of circling me to stop me from going to my mate.

“I SAID MOVE AND DO NOT STOP ME!” I roared and unleashed my Alpha aura.

Even though I was a Luna now, I used to be an Alpha and had Alpha blood running through my veins. Therefore, I could still unleash my Alpha aura.

They were shocked and stunned as they all looked down and bared their necks to me in submission.

I took the chance to get away from them, go to my car, and leave for the Reckless Banes Pack.

“Lucas?” I tried mindlinking him again, yet he still didn’t answer.

“Dad? Mom? Aleena?” I mindlinked my family, and the result was the same – No one answered.

Shit, did they get captured?

I floored the accelerator, not caring about the traffic lights, and reached the Reckless Banes Pack in no time.

Remembering Lucas’ words that the dungeon was located in the back garden of the pack, I quickly ran in that direction.

When I reached the garden, I saw many guards, and I was sure they weren’t from our side.

“Hey, who are you? What are you doing here? This garden is forbidden for just anyone to enter,” one of the guards said and came to me.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

I wasted no time attacking him, delivering a critical punch to his face. As expected, he fell after that one punch.

The other guards quickly reacted, seeing their comrade losing. They surrounded me and began attacking me.

Even though my movement had become much slower during pregnancy, I was still faster and stronger than regular guards.

I blocked their attacks and hit them back, not forgetting to protect my belly.

Before long, I had beaten all of them. I was tired and panting, not to mention they had managed to hit me a few times, too, but my determination to save my mate and my family kept me going.

I searched around the area and found the hidden open door on the ground. I moved hurriedly down the staircases when suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my stomach.

I gasped and stopped in my tracks. “Babies, hold on, okay? We are going to save your daddy, grandpa, grandma, auntie, and uncle,” I caressed my pregnant belly and whispered gently.

After the sharp pain vanished, I descended the staircases again until I saw another opened door.

The scene in front of me made me cry. How… Why…

Lucas had lied to me. The rogues were not injured lightly. They were covered in dried blood, and just like Ada, they were only skins and bones, and all of them were naked.

“Brother, what are you doing here?” Suddenly, I heard Aleena’s voice. I looked around and saw her fighting with another witch, but no one else was there.

“Sister, I’m here to help! Where are the others? Did they get captured?” I asked frantically.

Aleena was going to answer me, but suddenly, I saw a figure rushing toward one of the rogues and curling his hand around the rogue’s neck.

The rogue’s face turned blue; it was obvious that he couldn’t breathe. I saw the man’s expression turn vicious and knew he would break the rogue’s neck in the next second.

“No!” I dashed toward them. I wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt the rogues.

I curled my fist and was about to punch him when suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and was thrown back. I was too busy concentrating on the rogue; I didn’t realize the man had lifted his leg and kicked me.

I groaned as I felt the unbearable pain in my stomach.

“Colton!” I heard my mate’s voice and saw him, and the others appeared out of nowhere.

I tried to stand up, but my body felt too weak, and I fell again.

“Lucas..” I called my mate weakly and stretched out my arm while the other covered my belly.

“Colton, don’t.. Don’t say anything. Don’t move.” I saw my mate’s pale and frightened face.

Why does he look anxious and frightened?

Suddenly, I heard a commotion, and Dad and Mom appeared together with Alpha Tobias.

I wanted to say something, but the pain in my stomach intensified. It felt like something was stabbing it, and I gasped again. I tried to breathe, but it wasn’t easy to do so.

“Lucas… The babies..” I knew that the kick I received might have injured my babies.

The pain became more excruciating, and my eyesight started to blur. The last thing I heard before I blacked out was my mate calling my name over and over again and asking me to look at him and stay awake.

••• Lucas’s POV •••

I smirked as I saw Aleena’s confident posture. These enemies must have a death wish to go against the Alpha Queen.

The witch started to chant a spell, but Aleena blocked it with her magical ability and even fought back. It was easy for her to subdue that stupid witch.

“Brother, what are you doing here?” Suddenly, I heard Aleena’s voice.

Brother? Colton? I turned around and saw my mate standing in the doorway with bruises over his body.

Shit, what is he doing here? And what happened to him?!

“Sister, I’m here to help! Where are the others? Did they get captured?” he asked with agitation.

Before Aleena could answer him and before I could do anything, I saw Beta Neil dashed toward one of the rogues and placed his hand around the rogue’s neck, choking him.

The rogue was helpless against Beta Neil, and his face started to turn blue. Beta Neil smiled maliciously and tightened his hold, intending to break his neck.

“No!” My mate rushed to save the rogue, and to my horror, Beta Neil kicked him on his stomach. My mate was thrown away, and his back hit the wall before he collapsed onto the ground.

NO! I felt my blood drained from my body.

“Aleena, reverse the invisibility spell!” I shouted and ran to my mate.

“Colton!” I yelled in panic and crouched down to touch him.

“Lucas..” my mate’s voice was weak as he stretched out an arm toward me while he placed his other hand on his stomach.

“Colton, don’t.. Don’t say anything. Don’t move.” There was a pool of blood under him, and for the first time in my life, I felt bone-deep terror.

There was a racket in the doorway, and Alpha Zane, Witch Lily, and Alpha Tobias appeared.

“Lucas.. The babies..” my mate’s weak voice reached my ears.

Seeing the pool of blood, I knew there was a high risk of miscarriage and, even worse, my mate’s life was in danger. I have to get him out of here now!

“Aleena, go with Lucas and Mom to take care of your brother. I’ll take care of the rest here,” I heard Alpha Zane’s powerful voice, and I was so damn thankful for him.

I saw my mate getting weaker and weaker, and his eyes started to close. No, I couldn’t let him sleep!

“Colton, Colton, look at me. Don’t close your eyes. Look at me!” I begged him, but he was too weak, and soon his eyes were completely shut.

“Colton! Colton!” I wanted to shake his body to wake him up, but I knew I shouldn’t do it.

“Lucas, let’s go. We need to get him back to the Night Shade Pack,” Aleena said.

I picked my unconscious mate in my arms and rushed toward our car.

“I’ll drive; you and brother sit in the back with Mom. Mom will help until we reach the Night Shade Pack,” Aleena said, and I followed her order.

Aleena sped up toward her pack while Witch Lily sat with me and my mate at the back. Witch Lily kept chanting a spell, and I saw my mate had stopped bleeding.

Even though the bleeding had stopped, it didn’t stop my worry for him. My mate and babies were now in danger, and I could do nothing. Never had I felt so helpless in my life.

All I could do was hold him tight and pray to the Moon Goddess to have mercy on my mate and our pups.
