The Vengeance of the Rebirth Blind Luna

Isabella’s POV ~

I screamed, pushing with all my might, and finally, I heard the shrill cry that brought a tear to my eye.

“She’s a girl, Luna. Congratulations,” the midwife chirped, her smile radiant. Exhaustion weighed on me from the hours of labor, but I still wanted to hold my daughter in my arms.

I motioned for her to be handed to me, and when I finally cradled her, I saw her angelic face, so much like mine—my nose, my eyes, my eyebrows. My heart swelled with joy, and I couldn’t stop staring at her, even as the midwife raised an eyebrow, waiting to take her for a wash. I wasn’t ready to let her go.

I looked around, wondering why Alpha Neil hadn’t rushed in. He’d been by my side all night, reaching out through the mate bond, comforting me, pleading to bear the pain for me. He was such a loving husband and a strong Alpha for the Night Growlers Pack. I grinned, whispering to my baby, “You’re going to have the best father and be loved by everyone.”

I finally handed my daughter to the midwife, who wrapped her gently and took her away to be cleaned. I thought about resting until Neil returned. He should have known through our bond that she was born, so why hadn’t he come?

“Neil, where are you?” I reached out through the mate bond, but there was no response. I couldn’t feel him at all. Panic gnawed at me. Something wasn’t right. He had been with me all night, and now that our daughter was here, I couldn’t reach him.

“Neil?”, I called out from the mindlink yet no response, this has never happened before. He doesn’t shove me from mind linking or shutting himself out. It might be I was thinking too much, I shrugged in my mind but the unrest feeling in my mind and the knots in my stomach refused to go and I was tossing in bed unable to sleep.

“Belle, can you track him?” I asked my wolf, anxiety creeping into my voice.

“I can’t reach Norton either,” Belle replied, her voice tinged with concern. “But don’t worry, everything is fine. Congratulations, we have a pup!” she added, trying to lift my spirits.

But the unease wouldn’t go away. “Something urgent must have come up,” Belle suggested, but I wasn’t convinced. I felt too weak to stand, but my heart was restless.

The midwife suddenly burst back into the room, holding my daughter in her arms, tears streaming down her face. She grabbed a shawl and a cot, sobbing uncontrollably.

“Run, Luna! Run, they’re coming for her!” she cried, her voice trembling as she tried to pull me out of bed. My mind went numb. I clutched my baby tightly, trying to process what was happening.

“What do you mean?” I asked, my voice shaking, fear tightening its grip on my heart.

“She’s… cursed. They’re talking about… killing her. I heard them,” she stuttered, her sobs choking her words. The word “killing” hit me like a punch to the gut. I backed away in fear, shaking my head. “No,” I screamed, refusing to believe it shaking my head.

“You misheard, they won’t be talking about my pup”, I replied in a breathy voice, my voice caught in my throat trying to process the fuck she’s going on about.

“Luna, you need to save her! Save yourself!” she urged, leading me to the back entrance. My adrenaline kicked in as I followed her, clutching my daughter to my chest. My thoughts raced: “Who are they? What do they want with my baby?” “Is there a war?” I tried to mind-link Neil again, but still nothing.

As we reached the woods behind the infirmary, we were suddenly surrounded by pack warriors, their fangs bared. They hadn’t shifted yet, but I couldn’t hear their howling, the pack’s guards howling when there’s danger to alert the pack members.

“What’s going on, Lucas? Did Neil send you?” I recognized one of the warriors as my husband’s ally. But the midwife held me back, positioning herself in front of me.

“Don’t you understand? The Alpha ordered them to take the baby. If you resist, they have orders to take you down,” she whispered frantically.

I shook my head in disbelief. “No, call Neil! This isn’t true. He wouldn’t do this!” I demanded, using my Luna authority.

But Lucas stepped forward, his voice cold. “The Alpha knew you wouldn’t comply, so he severed your mind link and stripped you of your position as Luna. You’re no longer our Luna until you hand over the pup.”

His words cut through me like a blade. Stepping closer with each steps he took, my heart wavered and my mind went numb, his word pierced my heart, I refused to believe Neil would do this to me, to his own mate. ‘It can’t be’, I screamed as silent sobs racked through my body.

“Grab her!” Lucas ordered, and the warriors lunged at me. The midwife urged me to run, promising to hold them off. My body growing weak as I panted running with tears streaming down my cheeks. I knew if they were to shift, they would catch up to me in no time, I looked over at her face touching my pup cheeks despite I was running, she was calm like a storm not making any noise.

“Mom’s gonna get you to safety,” I whispered to my daughter, touching her cheek as I ran. She remained calm, silent in my arms. I stumbled, nearly falling, but I protected her from hitting the ground. The warriors were closing in, their footsteps growing louder.

No, this can’t be. It must be a dream”, I wailed screaming, crawling on the ground, I looked down at my thigh and realized I was bleeding, my body was covered with bruises and injury that refused to heal because I have grown weak, I stood up staggering, my legs failing me as I wobbled back to the ground. I screamed wailing silently hoping it was a dream, Neil can’t allow this to happen to me, he won’t.

“Neil please”, I pleaded in the mindlink hoping he would hear me and come to my aid.

“Please, Neil”, I pleaded through the mate bond again but got no response. I started crawling on the ground covering my body shielding my baby from getting injured, a tear slipped from my eye to her cot and she groaned, her shrill voice getting louder.

I hid behind a tree rocking her so she would stop crying, she went quiet and I glanced up looking at my surrounding, I had no idea I have reached the border and there was a cliff connecting to the other neighboring pack and a waterfall.

The pack warriors approached motioning for me to hand over the baby, I shook my head trembling all over with tears running down in my hands, I backed away holding onto my pup shawl tightly, I realized I had reached the end of the waterfall.

“You wouldn’t want us being violent, we don’t want to hurt you, just hand her over”, Lucas yelled screaming at me.

“You will not touch my baby”, I wailed, glancing at the cliff. But I had no choice, I jump or hand her over and have her killed in my eyes. No good mother would watch their kids being killed in their eyes and do nothing to save them. I jumped, praying to the Moon Goddess to save my daughter, even if it meant sacrificing myself.
