The Last Luna Chapter 59: Seeing is Believing
RiverSleeping had been futile. River had tossed and turned all night, thinking about Ellie and how he'd run out on her without even telling her how he was feeling or making sure that she was actually more interested in Ulysses than she was in him. He'd gotten up early and decided to drive back to Ellie's pack to talk to her in person, especially since he'd heard that Blade had showed up. Even if Ellie wasn't his wife, she was still a woman that he cared about, and he'd be d*mned if he was going to stand by and let Blade put his dirty claws on her.So he'd made the drive back over to Ellie's house, spending the entire time thinking about whether or not it was a good idea. Perhaps he should have called first. Maybe she was still sleeping. He was afraid, though, that if he called first, she'd just tell him where he could go, and then he wouldn't have a chance to talk to her in person.When he arrived in her packlands, he'd slowed down, taking his time, trying to decide what he should s
The Last Luna Chapter 60: Shelby to the Rescue
EllieAll of the construction that had gone on for the tournament was coming down. Ellie was sitting in her office, trying not to pay any attention, but it was hard. Not only could she hear the tools being used to take down the bleachers her father had worked so hard to put up in the meadow south of the village, all of the trucks moving the lumber and other items drove right past her office, so she had to see it, too.Working was nearly impossible. She was trying to look over maps of Blade's territory, trying to come up with a plan for the attack she would most definitely be launching soon, but her eyes kept wandering to River's packlands instead, and thoughts of him continued to interrupt every other idea she tried to focus on.Finally, she gave up and went to fold up the map on her desk, sighing in frustration. It didn't quite fold right, so she straightened it out and tried again. One corner was still sticking up. "You've got to be kidding me!" she whispered, unfolding the map comp
The Last Luna Chapter 61: Unexpected Phone Call
RiverA map of Blade's packlands was spread on his desk. He might not be joining in with Ellie to fight against Crying Wolf, but that didn't mean he couldn't launch his own attack. He was still hurt and angry at Ellie and Ulysses, but Blade didn't have the right to touch anyone the way he had Ellie, let alone the leader of another pack. So, even though he'd be acting independently, he planned to make sure Blade knew in no uncertain terms what his stance was when it came to attacking unsuspecting wolves out on runs in their own packlands.Not to mention his own neck still ached from time to time where that b*stard had bitten him.Absently running a hand along his neck, River made some marks on the map, indicating where he thought the most vulnerable portions of Blade's border were when his phone rang.Normally, River would look at the caller ID and see who it was before he picked up the receiver. There weren't a lot of people he cared to speak to. But he was distracted and didn't think
The Last Luna Chapter 62: A Clue
EllieFocusing on getting back to normal was Ellie's objective now. She'd decided that morning when she got out of bed that she simply wasn't going to think about River anymore. She was still planning an attack on Crying Wolf, but she had to keep that separate in her mind. She was going after Blade because he'd tried to hurt her, and that had nothing to do with River.Even his name made a knot form in her stomach. All of her friends and family were doing their best not to mention him because they could see how upset it made her. Ellie appreciated that. She felt that time would heal everything, but for now, it was all so difficult."This is where we'll build the new cabins," Ross, one of her Omegas who happened to have a degree in engineering and often functioned as the village architect, was telling her as Ellie surveyed the area of the forest that had just been cleared. Most of it was already part of the meadow where the village proper set, but they had had to remove a few trees. Eve
The Last Luna Chapter 63: Figuring it Out
Ellie"Why in the world would River think that I'm in love with you?" Ellie blurted, trying to control the anger rising up within her. Both hands were fisted at her sides. "And perhaps more importantly, why the h*ll were you talking to him about me anyway?""Well, in my defense," Ulysses began, both hands up between them as he slowly backed away, "I was just trying to help. And also in my defense, I don't know why he thinks that, but he said something about overhearing you say that you'd rather marry me than him. I don't know what in the Goddess's green earth makes him think that you'd say something like that, but--"Ellie gasped so loudly, Ulysses stopped talking. Both of her hands flew over her mouth, and her eyes widened to the size of dinner plates as she tried to contain the shock that radiated through her. It was probably even more of a bolt of lightning than the one she'd experienced when Ulysses had told her what he was doing there to begin with. "It couldn't be...." she said,
The Last Luna Chapter 64: She Always Knows
RiverAs much as he wanted to ignore it, that telephone call from Ulysses was really eating at him. River did his best to busy himself outside of his office for the rest of the day. He went to visit the sick and elderly, walked around the perimeter of the village to make sure everything was secure, and went over the supplies with Beta Allen. After that, he'd gone back to his office and stared at that map, trying to think about the best strategy for attacking Blade, but his eyes kept blurring over, and he kept picturing Ellie's beautiful face in his mind.Why had Ulysses called him? Really, it didn't make any sense. He wanted to talk it over with someone, but there really weren't too many people he trusted with these sorts of personal matters, so he did his best to put it out of his mind and let it go--the same thing he had been doing with his feelings for Ellie for the last several days.Dinner was one of his favorite dishes. He knew his mother was asking the cook to make things that
The Last Luna Chapter 65: Road Trip
EllieClosure. It was a word that had been dancing around in her mind for several days, since she'd accepted the fact that River was gone, that he didn't want to marry her. Now that she'd spoken to Ulysses and realized what the problem was--at least, where the problem stemmed from--she still thought she needed some closure.Not to mention the fact that she needed to clear the air between herself and River and let him know that she never had feelings for Ulysses.So… she decided to go and see him. Talking to someone in person was always more productive than trying to talk to them on the phone. She wasn't sure if River would accept a call from her anyway. He wouldn't speak to Ulysses when he'd tried to call.A few weeks after the wedding was called off, Ellie got into her car and headed to River's village. It had been a long time since she'd left her own village, except to run through the forest as a wolf, so she thought it would do her some good to get away for a while. She was confide
The Last Luna Chapter 66: Closure
River The first mind-link message that had come in from an Omega out on the outskirts of the pack lands that alerted him that there was an unknown blonde woman driving a convertible through their territory had caused a knot to form in River's stomach. He'd asked that guard to keep an eye out and let him know what she was up to. Then, several other mind-link messages came in from dozens of other wolves who were posted around the territory, and River had to accept the fact that this was likely Ellie paying him a visit.He had considered locking his office door and pretending like he was out for the day. But then his mother had told him that Ellie was with her, and she was walking her to the office. He couldn't hide from his mother, and he couldn't tell her that he didn't want to talk to Ellie without causing a lot more problems.So… here he was, finally facing the woman who had broken his heart.River just wanted to get it over with. Maybe after they chatted, they'd both feel better ab
