The Wolfless Luna's Revenge: Returning With His Secret Twins Chapter 179

[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]

I didn’t know how to feel after seeing my husband wake up from his coma.

There was sothing different in his eyes. The way he looked at —that softness, the ache, the guilt that was etched on his face. I wondered if there was sothing that happened to him while he was unconscious. Did sothing hit him on the head? It made worried.

From the corner of my eyes, I saw how Dominic stole short glances at . And when I caught him, he would smile sweetly with those strange emotions swimming in his soft, hazel eyes. I wanted to ask. I wanted to know if he saw anything in his coma that could help end this. But if sothing did, I knew Dominic would tell .

Killian suddenly vanished, drawing the enemies away as we fled that part of the woods. We needed to look for him so we could all go ho alive. Sothing happened to my friend, but deep within , I believe he wasn’t among those evil beasts. He was still Killian. The Alpha of the Moonstone pack. My friend. The only friend I had who helped when I was at my lowest. I needed to find him and take him back to Brianne.

“Where is Uncle Killian, Mom? Why did he leave us?” Diana asked while being piggybacked by her dad. “Is he one of them?”

“No, sweetheart,” I imdiately answered, not wanting the kids to think that Killian was a bad guy after everything he did to save us all. “Uncle Killian is not one of them. He just drove the enemies away from us. He won’t do anything to harm us all.”

Dominic’s brow deepened, curious about what his daughter said. “What do you an, he’s one of them?” he asked his daughter and then he looked at with that grave look on his face, demanding answers from . “Please tell what happened, Samantha. Why does Diana think Killian is one of those n who wants us all dead?”

I bit my lip hard and then looked around. I wasn’t sure if I would tell him, but Dominic deserved to know so he knows what to do if anything unexpected happens. “You rember those purple eyes the Fang Trinity had whenever they let the darkness possess them?”

Dominic’s eyes widened as he realized what I ant. I averted my eyes from him and focused on the trail we were taking. It was so difficult to walk around the forest with thick fog around us. The night was getting colder and the path we were taking beca rocky and steep and I had to carry Devon too after seeing that he was having a hard ti keeping up with and his father.

“I can do it, Mom! Put down!” he grumbled, feeling embarrassed after I carried him on my back. “I am too old for this now.”

“You are not too old for anything when it cos to Mommy,” I said to him, smiling. It was difficult to breathe as the air went thin, but we couldn’t stop and wait for the sun to co up. We had to be there before dawn, and we couldn’t let the enemies find us, especially since Dominic and I were still recovering after we got the injuries from the Ancient Library that collapsed.

“I am too big to be carried, Mom,” Devon grumbled again, pushing away from so he could go down, and when I had no choice but to let go of him, he looked in the eyes with those angry, ocean-blue eyes. My eyes.

“Fine. As long as you can keep up,” I pretended I was annoyed and Devon just grinned, making my eyes roll. Dominic grinned when he saw , and then I realized that he and Devon shared the sa traits. Sa stubbornness. Sa pride. The sa sense of dominance in everything. My heart started to swell as I looked at Devon and then at my husband, dreaming of the family I always wanted to have. If I trust Dominic again with my whole heart, if I throw away and forget all the bad things I experienced with him, could we have the happy ending I always wished for? Could he always choose and love with all his heart without any hesitations?

[What is it that worries your mind, love? I can feel it.] Dominic’s voice rang in my head through our bond link. [Tell , so I know.]

[I am worried about Killian. We have to find him before anything bad happens to him.] I whispered to him, trying to even my breath as the air started to burn in my lungs fast. [And we have to find where that Wolf Tomb is. Based on what I read in the books I took from the Ancient Library, this should be just around here sowhere.]

There was a pause as he succumbed to his thoughts, and then he finally answered. [Do you want to look for him first before we search for the Tomb?]

It was my turn to fall into silence as we continued to walk. Diana had already fallen asleep behind her father’s back while Devon did his best to keep up with and his Dad. My son occasionally looks at Dominic through the corner of his eye as if checking on his sister and looking to see if Dominic would do sothing again. I couldn’t tell my husband that he grabbed by my neck in that prison cell made of bones. I was sure it would break him once he found out he tried to kill in his sleep.

Devon was wary of his father, and I couldn’t bla him for the way he felt towards Dominic.

“Mom, look!”

My son’s shout snapped out of my thoughts, and I looked at the spot where he was pointing. Even Diana had woken up from how excited Devon’s voice was. She looked over her father’s shoulder and her eyes widened.

As the four of us followed the butterflies, the kind that I saw when Dominic followed into a cave, the tiny creatures brought us to an old dry well.

“Devon, no—”

But Devon rushed towards it without a pause. My heart raced, terrified at the carelessness he showed as he went to look down the dry well. I watched how his eyes widened and his lips pulled into a wide smile as he looked at and then at Dominic. “Look, Mom! I found sothing!”

“Don’t you ever do that again!” I scolded him, my chest heaving as fear flashed in my eyes the mont I got to the well and pulled him to . I pushed him gently away from with my hands grabbing both of his shoulders, my face angry, and my eyes teary. “Don’t you just run anywhere, Devon! It’s dangerous to go around here! You know that!”

“I’m so sorry, Mom, but look! I found sothing!”

My son was right. There was sothing strange at the bottom of the well, and even Dominic was so petrified when he saw what it was. The crystal coffin was so familiar that it brought a weird feeling in my stomach, hoping that my eyes were only deceiving —that it was sothing that wasn’t true, and that there was sothing in this forest that was tricking and my husband.

“That can’t be your mom’s coffin, Dominic. That’s impossible!”

He looked down, his jaw stiffened, and I saw him swallow hard. “I don’t want to believe what my eyes are seeing as well... but I believe it is your Mom’s coffin, Samantha.”

“That’s crazy! Your Mom’s buried in Silver Crescent—”

“Grandma is there!”

“That’s impossible!” I gasped softly; my eyes were gazing at the coffin at the bottom of the dry well. Then I noticed there were symbols engraved on the bricked walls of the cave, the sa symbols I saw in my mother’s diary.

“Dominic, what are you—”

It was too late for to stop him. My husband jumped down the well and checked the thing himself. My heart raced when he placed his hand on the crystal coffin and carefully pushed the heavy lid, only to find it was empty.

“There’s sothing inside!” Diana yelled to her dad as she pointed at sothing and my eyes caught that sothing glittered when the light struck it.

“It’s a necklace!” Dominic said. His voice was as shocked as I was when he lifted it for us to see. “It’s my mother’s necklace...”

“We want to go down, Mom. I want to see it!” Diana said it to with urgency in her voice.

“No, we’re not—”

But I gasped sharply when Diana jumped and Dominic panicked as he caught his daughter with both hands. I was so angry at what Diana did but got angrier when Devon jumped too, embarrassed that his Dad had to catch him and imdiately stepped away from Dominic.

“So nobody is listening to now!” I snarled at the three of them and Dominic just grinned, together with Diana.

All of them were at the bottom of the well now so I had no choice but to jump and join them. I squinted my eyes at Devon and Diana, who gave puppy eyes and then frowned at my husband, warning him never to tolerate their behavior like that again.

“Let see it...”

When I took the necklace from Dominic’s hand, the ground suddenly shook, and a familiar voice echoed inside the well, ringing painfully in my ears. “Hoping to find the truth here?!” Olivia laughed manically, making Diana tremble in fear. “Don’t think I will make it easy for both of you, Samantha and Dominic!”Black fog appeared inside the well, putting Dominic on full alert as he grabbed Diana and Devon close to him. A figure of a woman erged from the black fog and I crouched, ready to lunge at it.

But the phantom figure went sowhere in the cave and triggered sothing that made the floor of the dry well tremble, threatening to bury us alive along with the crystal coffin.

“Save the kids!” I scread at Dominic in the middle of chaos as the bricks around us started to crack and create fissures. “Now, Dominic!”

“I won’t leave you here!” He scread at . “Take my hand now, Samantha!”

I wanted to go to Dominic but Olivia’s phantom shadow stepped between us—its crimson eyes glared at . Its hollow mouth grinned, taunting to my death.
