Luna on The Run: I Stole The Alpha’s Son
Chapter 64

Elena

Never in my life have I struggled to sleep so much, all night I tossed and turned, sleep refusing to take me as I wondered how long Axton would keep me from our sons, yet Luke’s eagerness to remain here until I prove I would return kept playing on my mind. I wonder if mom would consider staying here with Axton.

She would be safe here until I returned, the idea of leaving Luke here by himself worried me to no end. Turning my head, I see Axton sleeping facing away from me, sitting up he is still fast asleep when I spot his keys on the bedside table next to his head. Quietly as possible, I pull the blanket back. He was asleep and this was our chance to escape him.

Lexa, feeling my change in mood, pushes forward. “Elena, quick before he wakes,” Lexa urges as she looks through my eyes to spot the keys, and what brought on my sudden excitement.

My heart beats hard in my chest as I pull the covers back and crept out of bed. Moving around to his side, my fingers lock around the keys, the jingle making me freeze in place to glance at him. His eyes were still shut, and I let out a breath, quickly f*sting them so that they don’t rattle and make noise. Yet as I stand upright, the floor creaked and his eyes snap open.

I barely had time to blink before he reached out and gripped my wrist, jerking me across his body and pinning me beneath him against the mattress.

Lexa wails in my head at my failed attempt to get us back to our sons. Axton pries my fingers from around his keys, peeling each finger back until he retrieved his keys, taking them and any hope I had of escaping with them.

He drops them back onto the bedside table and glares down at me. Emotion clogs my throat, threatening to suffocate me, as I fight back the urge to break down in frustration.

“You had to ruin it, didn’t you, Elena?” his words set my b***d on fire and Lexa roars inside just as furious. We ruined nothing, he f***king ruined everything. Everything, I hate him for it, hate what he did, hate that he took everything from my family. From our sons! I wanted my family back, I wanted Alisha, I wanted my old life back, I wanted me back.

Our boiling anger erupts, spewing out in a tsunami of hate for everything he has done.

“When will you learn, you aren’t f***king escaping me again!” Axton yells at me and I shake my head.

That anger smashes me as I scream it at him before lashing out and attacking him. Axton growls at us, but I was far too gone, I wanted to hurt something, hurt him, anything. I needed my babies, I needed them because at this point they were the only reason I am still breathing. The only reason I haven’t ended it all. My reason for f***king breathing, and he was keeping me from them.

So I fight back. “Stop it Elena,” Axton snarls when my elbows connects with the side of his head, he grunts pinning my arms to the bed and Lexa surges forward, trying him buck him off when roars his own frustration. His canines slip out between his parted l!ps pressing to my neck and I freeze in

place, knowing he could easily make me submit. My breathing is ragged as my chest heaved as tears pr*cked and burned my eyes.

I’m tired of barely holding the scraps of my d*mn life together, it almost doesn’t seem worth it anymore. I no longer feel like fighting every step of the way, only to be let down by the end result. To replace I am fighting for nothing because an Alpha always steals it away in the end.

“Submit or I’ll make you.” Axton growls, his teeth raking down my flesh in warning as his grip grows tighter.

All my life, I have lived with responsibility, lived with the burden of what is expected of me and I lived up to everyone’s expectations.

One leaked s*x tape, a one-night stand, one stup*d decision to think I could walk away from my mate ruined everything I worked my entire life for. A goal I now saw as foolish. because I was fighting all along for something that would never be mine.

Daddy’s little prodigy, daddy’s future Alpha, the Alpha’s daughter. A title I lived and clung onto with everything, an identity I desperately craved and worked my a**s off for.

Ripped away, then I took on the persona of Jake’s plaything, Jake’s broken doll, all to save the two little beings grow- ing inside of me. Then Axton came for us, I finally thought I would catch a break. Thought he would take some of the burdens and for once let me breath. Because despite my rejecting him, I was still his.

For a split second, I looked forward to the title of being his, his mate, and Luna, wife, the mother of his children. All because for once someone showed up for me when I lost all hope. Only for him to prove that he saw what everyone else did and that he never came for me.

His teeth dig into my neck and a whimper escapes me as I turn it, giving him what he wants, I was done. He might as well take my will too. Lexa screams at me to not submit to him. knowing if we do, I will lose our sons, but I am tired, tired of fighting.

“Say it, or I make you.” Axton growls, the vibration against my neck makes me shiver as his teeth break my delicate skin. Now he was just proving everything I knew correct.

All he saw me as is the forsaken Alpha’s daughter, all he saw was what Jake did, and I allowed to save our sons, in the hope of save my best friend. Instead, he only saw what Jake made me feel in those moments he took everything from me. Tried to take my sons, trying to steal the only identity I had left. One Identity, one I didn’t realize I desired and longed for so much more, mother.

And now he is keeping me from them, stripping another title, a title I can’t live without because I have no f***king clue who I am without it. I have never been me, always lived to another’s expectation instead of my own, and I was now losing that last strip of myself too.

“Elena…” Axton snarled as Lexa shoved forward, fighting for me when I refused. I screamed and lashed out against his hold. His grip tightens and my will breaks further, unleashing a tidal wave of everything I felt for months as he roars at her to stand down, forcing his aura over her, and she retreats under its pressure.
