The Luna’s Second Chance Mate

Kaden’s POV

Cold shivers ran down my spine almost as soon as Declan had handed me one of his wooden knives. I could feel it past my gut, it was almost as though I could hear my name. The feeling was unfamiliar and made me uneasy.

I rose to my feet immediately, glancing out the window. There was nothing there, but I still didn’t feel comfortable. My instincts were always right, and the first thing I guessed was that there was a rival cunt on my tail. Perhaps they’d followed us all the way here. If it was true, then they were messing with the wrong wolf.

I looked back at Declan who’d gotten himself busy when I had stood up the first time. They’d probably come after him first. I needed to make sure he was safe.

I tapped at his shoulders before scooping him up in one swift movement and made my way to his room. I set him down quickly on the single bed and shut the window blinds, leaving only the electrical lights on to illuminate the room before walking back to the bed.

Crouching down to his eye level, I kissed his forehead and pulled away, taking relief in his innocent yet curious eyes.

“Declan, you stay here, okay?” I half whispered, just loud enough for him to hear me. “Don’t run around, don’t say anything. Just stay here until Daddy gets back. I’ll open the door for you, okay?”

I wasn’t sure he understood a word of what I said, but he nodded nonetheless. I ran a hand through his hair one last time before walking out and locking the door. I dropped the keys underneath the door mat before dashing out of the cabin, only to hear the piercing, gut wrenching scream of a woman. And she was calling my name with desperation in her tone, although extremely faint.

Larissa.

Realization suddenly set in when I heard my name the third time, stopping me in my tracks. Whoever they were, they had her. They had Larissa…Those bastards! I would kill them. Every single fucking one of them!

Without thinking, I dashed into the woods. “Larissa? Larissa!” I continued to yell as I ran deeper through the woods, struggling to follow the sounds of her frantic voice. They grew clearer as I continued to inch closer, until I was face to face with a pool of wolves in an open space hurdled at one tree.

“Get away right now!” I yelled in rage, watching them separate one after the other until there was one left hovering over a figure pinned to the tree. I could hear the muffled cries now, and her bellowing my name one last time before the bastard stepped back with a smirk plastered on his face.

I could finally see her. Larissa. My Larissa with both arms tied across the girth of the tree. Her hair was a disheveled mess. Her cheeks that used to glow and pull me in now housed a bunch of purpling bruises. They were tear stained, and even more tears fell from her swollen eyes as she looked at me. Those doe eyes were pleading. There were scratch marks on her face that traveled down to her dress that had been torn all the way past her shoulders. They were barely hanging there.

I could feel my blood boil in that instant. They’ve messed with the wrong alpha. I would show them why the Griffinhowl pack was so feared amongst wolves. Theses bastards would not live to see the blackout tonight.

With now flaming eyes, I looked around to catch the eyes of the cunt that had been hovering over her. I recognized him all too quickly with the ugly smirk on his face. Running a hand through his hair, he took big steps in my direction.

“Hey, Kaden. I see you’re quite early to join the fun.” He remarked while running a hand through his hair. He had some nerve to speak to me like that. And with that, I balled a fist and sent it flying straight into his ugly nose.

“I told you bigoted fool not to fuck with any omega in my pack. And certainly not my omega!” I yelled angrily, charging at him with fully extended claws.

“Kaden!” I heard Larissa scream again and turned around, only to see one of his idiots running in my direction. I grabbed him by the neck, tossing him harshly against a tree. I could care less if he lived or died. There was another one who reached straight for my neck, but I caught him just in time to send an elbow into his abdomen.

But the sounds of flesh welching caused me to stop and look back, to see Dolph with his claws deep in my abdomen.

“Let him go! Let him go, you fucking bastards!” She screamed again, followed by a string of incomprehensible cries.

Are you going to let them get away with what they’ve done to Larissa, Kaden? Don’t fucking die on me! I could hear Peter’s angry voice yell at me.

I’d suppressed him for so long. It was time for them to know that I wasn’t one to be messed with. I looked down to where Dolph’s claws still stayed and forcefully pulled it out. I could see the mortification slowly creep in on his face as I pulled it and fell to the ground. Closing my eyes, I let Peter take over.

I shot up almost immediately, charging at whatever was in my wake. Dolph had transformed as well, rushing at my neck but I was quick to catch him and force him to back up against a tree.

He gasped at the tightness on his neck, coughing and struggling to push my grip away. He couldn’t. Instead, there was another wolf behind me who’d dung his claws in my wound again.

Angry, I grabbed Dolph and tossed him in the direction of the wolf who’d attacked me before rushing to stab at his heart. I turned again, scratching the next one who’d decided to face me and twisting his neck so hard I could hear the bones crack to my utmost pleasure.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

One by one, I incapacitated his squad till there was just Dolph left. He was smirking at me now, wiping the blood that trickled from his nostrils.

“You want her so bad? You should have said so that day!” He yelled, still smirking. He was trying to get under my skin. He’d already done it, if that was he wanted. But what he was still oblivious to, was the fact that he was beat.

“Tell that to the devil when you see him. And remember to send my greetings from the alpha of the Griffinhowl pack!” I spat back, rushing at him blindly. He charged at me equally, but I reached for his head first. He sent a jab at my wound, forcing me to cough out. There was blood everywhere, but I could see was Larissa tied up and her soft, defeated sobs.

Never again. With that, I sent an elbow to his temples before punching him to the ground. He was gasping for air now, struggling to get back on his feet when I struck a kick back to his temples and he fell half dead on the ground.

That wasn’t enough. I reached down to feel his weakened pulse before sinking both claws through his chest. I could feel his heart pound rapidly and faster before coming to an eerily deafening stop.

All I could think of as I staggered to my feet was Larissa. I wiped my blood stained hands on my ruined pants and only then did everything come rushing back in.

Drawing ragged breaths, I dragged my feet to where she stood against the tree. I couldn’t see clearly, but I could hear the soft sobs that fell from her lips. I could hear her call out my name, but the pain from my abdomen was suddenly blinding.

Grunting harshly, I pressed at it with one hand and reached for her cheeks with the other, lightly hovering over it before smearing the tears that had streamed down her face.

“You’re okay now.” I ground out, wincing while she struggled to wriggle her way out of the ropes. “You’re fine. They’re all gone, every one of their bloody asses. They won’t come near you ever again.” I continued with a tight lipped smile, struggling to see past the blur that was enveloping my vision.

“I’m fine, but you’re not. You’re hurt.” I heard her cry out softly, and soon she was grabbing my arm still sobbing. I bit back what I imagined was a smile, still wiping at her eyes. I didn’t know if I was thinking about anything anymore. I just wanted her to be okay.

But it was blinding. Slowly, I felt my consciousness slipping from me. And no matter how much I wanted to stop her crying, I still heard her cries even when I could no longer see anything. I let nature take its course and fell to my knees, closing my eyes to nothingness.
