True Luna: The Final Battle (The White Wolf Series Book 6)
True Luna: The Final Battle: Chapter 32

Sophia’s POV

　　I could feel Lex’s fear and it made my whole body hurt. I didn’t like to see him scared. I didn’t like to see him in pain. I wished that I could take it all away.

　　He didn’t say a word as we walked toward our mom’s office. He was holding my hand tightly and staring in front of himself. I could tell that he was completely lost in thought. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

　　“Lex?” I called him softly as we entered the packhouse.

　　He looked at me and the broken look in his eyes almost made me whimper. I stopped walking and pulled him into a hug.

　　“She will be okay, Lex,” I said, holding him tightly. “Dad is right. She is so strong and she will win.”

　　Lex hugged me back and took a deep breath.

　　“I know,” he mumbled. “I just can’t stop worrying. I can’t stop wondering if…”

　　“Stop,” I interrupted him. “There is no if. She will win. She will come back to us.”

　　I had to believe in that. I would break if I didn’t.

　　Lex tightened his hold on me and kissed the top of my head.

　　“I am so fucking happy that I have you,” he said quietly. “I don’t know what would I do if I were an only child.”

　　I chuckled and rubbed his back.

　　“You wouldn’t have anyone to leave your bedroom door open,” I said. “It would always be closed and there wouldn’t be any fresh air for you to breathe.”

　　Lex snorted and let me go.

　　“I would still have a window,” he said. “That’s where I always get my fresh air from, you know. That’s where most people get their fresh air from actually.”

　　“Fine,” I sighed, rolling my eyes.

　　“Your bedroom door would always be closed and there wouldn’t be any hallway air for you to breathe,” I said, making Lex laugh.

　　“Fair enough,” he said as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

　　I smiled at him and we continued walking toward our mom’s office.

　　I took a deep breath as Lex opened the door. We walked inside and Anna looked up at us.

　　“How is she?” Anna asked worriedly.

　　“Fighting,” I said. “She has a fever.”

　　Anna sighed and shook her head. “It’s one of the symptoms. Her body can’t take it so it’s trying to fight back every way it knows how to.”

　　I nodded as I sat in the armchair. I watched Lex as he walked to the couch and sat down with a huff.

　　“Where is Hunter?” Anna asked and I looked back at her.

　　“Talking to his dad,” I said. “He will probably have to go to his pack for a day or two.”

　　Anna raised an eyebrow at me.

　　“And leave you?” she asked, making me sigh.

　　“He is an Alpha,” I said. “He hasn’t been back home in a very long time. There are issues his dad can’t solve anymore.”

　　Hunter’s pack members were starting to ask a lot of questions. They hadn’t seen their Alpha in a while and they were getting suspicious and worried. Alpha Nathan explained the situation to them, but he felt like it would be better if Hunter came home for a day or two. Hunter wasn’t too happy about it, but he knew that his dad was right. He was an Alpha and he needed to go talk to his pack members.

　　I would miss him terribly, but it was only for a day or two. He would come back as soon as he could.

　　Anna nodded and walked to my mom’s desk. She sat in my mom’s chair and opened the book that was in front of her.

　　“Tell me you found something,” I said, my voice trembling slightly.

　　Anna looked up and furrowed her eyebrows.

　　“I am not sure,” she said, leaning forward and flipping a page. “Not much is written about this curse or the darkness that followed.”

　　I wiggled in my seat nervously. I already knew that.

　　“But?” Lex asked, making Anna glance at him.

　　“But there is a paragraph in the original books about the curse that I can’t seem to get out of my mind,” Anna said, flipping through the pages.

　　I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at Lex. He was staring at Anna with a confused expression on his face.

　　“Ah, here it is,” Anna said as she picked up the book.

　　“What does it say?” I asked, swallowing the lump in my throat.

　　“It says that the witches didn’t choose the first True Luna only because of her qualities and her mate being an Alpha,” Anna said, keeping her eyes on the book. “Another reason is mentioned here. There is only one sentence written about it and that’s probably why we never paid much attention to it.”

　　“What reason?” Lex asked and I could hear the impatience in his voice.

　　“There was a rumor going around that True Luna’s fated mate was going to reject her,” Anna said as she looked up at us. “The dark witches thought that him rejecting her would only add to his anger and jealousy once he realized that there was another man for her.”

　　My heart raced.

　　“I don’t understand,” Lex said. “How is that connected to my mom’s darkness?”

　　Anna took a deep breath and looked at me.

　　“Our dad rejected our mom,” I said quietly, making Anna nod.

　　“Your mom is now fighting Sienna somewhere in her mind,” Anna said. “She is someone who hurt your mom. She is a dark stain on your mom’s past.”

　　I swallowed the lump in my throat. It was getting harder and harder for me to breathe.

　　“Unfortunately, a lot of fuckers hurt my mom,” Lex said as he stood up and approached Anna and me. “Are you telling me that she will have to fight them all?”

　　Anna looked up at him and shrugged.

　　“I am not sure,” she said. “Maybe she will.”

　　Anna glanced at me before looking back up at Lex. I knew what she was going to say next and my stomach kept twisting and turning.

　　“But I believe that the last person she will have to fight will be the hardest,” Anna said. “I believe that if she defeats him, she will defeat the darkness.”

　　“Who is he?” Lex asked angrily.

　　I closed my eyes and tried to force the air into my lungs.

　　“Your father,” Anna said and I felt my heart break into a million tiny pieces.
