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

　Logan’s POV

　　“She will be out of that room soon, bud,” I said as I wrapped an arm around my son’s shoulders. “Your mom is doing her best. She will find a way. I am sure of it.”

　　Alex looked at me and took a deep breath. He gave me a small nod, but the broken look in his eyes told me that he didn’t believe me.

　　I sighed and pulled him closer to me. I kissed his temple and leaned my head against his.

　　“Your mom is amazing, Alex,” I said quietly. “She will find a way.”

　　Alex took another deep breath.

　　“I know, Dad,” he mumbled. “I’m not doubting her. I am just scared that it will take a while. I can’t watch Fia locked up in that room again. It is making me so angry.”

　　I sighed and pulled him into a hug.

　　“I know, bud,” I said. “I am sure that your mom will find a way soon. We will have our Fia back soon.”

　　Alex hugged me back just as I felt a sharp pain in my chest.

　　I flinched and Alex let me go. I placed a hand on my chest and groaned.

　　“Dad?!” Alex said worriedly as he made me lean on him. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

　　I couldn’t answer him. I had no idea what was going on. The pain was weird. It was something I had never experienced before. It made my body shiver and my chest suddenly felt empty.

　　“Logan!” I heard Anna screaming my name.

　　She stormed into Alex’s room with a horrified look on her face.

　　“Emma did something stupid!” Anna screamed. “We have to go get her!”

　　My heart raced and suddenly the pain in my chest increased.

　　NO! No, no, no, no!

　　EMMA! I screamed through the mind-link as I jumped up and started running toward the cabin. What did you do?! What did you do?!

　　My heart was racing a mile a minute and I was sure that I would pass out. I was panicking and a million different scenarios went through my mind.

　　EMMA! I screamed again.

　　There was no response, but the pain inside my body had gotten worse. It almost made me fall to my knees, but I pushed through and I kept running toward the cabin.

　　I had to get her and I had to stop her from the stupid thing she was trying to do.

　　And I knew exactly what she was trying to do.

　　“Mom!” Alex screamed as we finally reached the cabin and barged inside.

　　The first thing I saw when we approached the room was my daughter lying on the ground in front of the door.

　　Alex gasped loudly and ran toward Sophia. He picked her up and tried to wake her. She wasn’t responding, though.

　　I knew that Emma must have used her magic to put Sophia to sleep.

　　My eyes fell on my beautiful little mate who was clutching her chest and trashing on the ground inside the room.

　　“NO!” I screamed as I ran toward the window.

　　I am sorry. She mind-linked me. I love you. I will always love you.

　　She completely stilled and the pain inside my chest exploded. I fell to my knees and screamed.

　　Alex ran to me and tried to get me to stand up. I couldn’t, not even with his help. He let me go and looked at his mom.

　　“Mom!” Alex shouted as he started banging on the glass. “No! Wake up!”

　　I tried to force the air into my lungs, but I couldn’t. The pain was flowing through my body with so signs of stopping.

　　It felt like she was being ripped apart from me. It felt like her soul was leaving my heart and my body.

　　Was she dying? Did she die?

　　No, no, no, no!

　　Please, Goddess, no!

　　“Emma!” I exclaimed as I tried to ignore the pain and get back to my feet.

　　Alex was slamming his fists against the glass. He looked like he was going to have a heart attack.

　　“Mom!” he screamed. “Wake up, Mom! You can’t do this! You can’t leave us!”

　　I somehow managed to get up. I looked at Emma and my heart broke. It didn’t look like she was breathing.

　　Was she really dying? Was my beautiful little mate really dying?

　　No, no, no.

　　I was going to go inside and I was going to save her. Nothing and no one could stop me.

　　I rushed to the door and pulled on the doorknob. The door was locked and the panic inside my body increased.

　　Did she lock it from the inside?

　　“Emma!” I screamed as I started banging on the door, using all the strength I had left in my body.

　　My heart was racing so fast that I could feel it banging against my ribcage. The pain was almost unbearable. I was trying to stay on my feet so I could get inside that room and save her.

　　I took a few steps back and I tried to slam my body against the door. I was too weak, though. I couldn’t muster up enough strength to do it.

　　Alex saw what I was trying to do. He approached me, pulled me to the side, and slammed his body against the door.

　　It didn’t work, though.

　　I leaned against the wall and clutched my chest. I was having trouble breathing and the pain in my chest was only getting worse.

　　“Mom!” Alex screamed as he tried again.

　　“Stop it, Alex,” Anna said. “She locked it with magic. You are not getting in there.”

　　I looked at Anna and I tried to hold back a sob. I couldn’t lose her. I couldn’t let the love of my life die.

　　“Do something then!” Alex screamed. “She is dying!”

　　Anna didn’t even flinch. She kept her eyes on Emma.

　　“She isn’t dying,” Anna said, making my heart race. “She is fighting it.”

　　I pushed myself off the wall and moved so I can look at her.

　　I felt tears in the corners of my eyes. I just wanted to go in there and hold her.

　　Why did she do it? Why?

　　“Come back to me, my love,” I mumbled as I leaned my forehead against the glass. “Don’t leave me, Emma. Please, baby, come back.”

　　I didn’t know what I would do if she died. I didn’t know how would I survive it. She couldn’t die. She couldn’t leave me.
