Luna on The Run I Stole the Alphas Son

Chapter 69

Later That Night

After celebrations and dinner, I got the boys finally settled and back in their cribs. Tucking the blanket tight over them, I turn to see my mother waiting by the door. She inclines her head to the side, wanting me to follow her. Leaving my room, I follow her downstairs and through the giant living room.

The front screen door creaks as she opens it and we step outside into the cool, fresh air. Sondra was sitting in her rocking chair and we take our seats beside her on the other two. It was peaceful out here. The sky always seemed clearer. It was tranquil, and I could see why Sondra favored her rocking chair. The view was spectacular, and you could make out the city lights from the front verandah.

Forest lined one side of the property with rolling mountains. The city was to the right, and barely a stone’s throw away. If only Axton knew how close I truly was. Sondra’s property was nearly directly at the back of his pack. On the other side of the ranch was all open land for as far as I could see.

“I may have done something,” my mother tells me, making me tear my gaze away from the city. My mother chews her lip and sits back in her chair, watching me. Her lips tug up in the corners.

“You know, when I married your father and allowed him to mark me, I didn’t think much of it. What I was losing-what I was gaining.” Michelle opens the door, coming out with a tray with mugs. She sets the tray down and hands me one. I find it is hot chocolate. She smiles and moves to sit on the top step with her own mug.

“Bardot’s owned the city, and we founded it. Amongst our pack elders, it was no secret that the pack was run by the Luna’s, not the Alpha.” my mother continues.
