My Alpha Wants Two Lunas I'm Done novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160 Arrival in Lunaris

Laila’s POV:

“Ms. Conlay, I’ll go with you,” Pearl said right away.

“No.” I shook my head. “I’ll go alone. I’ll move faster that way. You go back to Silvermoon Pack. Get things ready. But don’t tell Faulkner or the others yet.”

Before shifting into my wolf form, I looked back at Pearl.

She stood under the tree. There were tears in her eyes. And there was hope too-careful, hidden hope.

She was just like me.

Too afraid to hope. Too scared it would all fall apart.

My throat tightened. Then I turned and ran.

The wind stung my eyes and forced the tears back.

I focused and sprinted toward Lunaris.

Nita was restless inside my mind.

Her ears were straight up. Her nose twitched as if she could smell Raymond from hundreds of miles away.

I knew she felt the same as I did.

I shouldn’t hope.

But I still prayed that Dad, Mom, Nicky, and Miriam would protect that child.

Please let it be Raymond.

The trip to Lunaris was about 600 miles long.

At full speed, a werewolf could run close to 90 miles in a day and night. But we couldn’t keep that pace forever.

I planned it in my head. The first day, I ran 90 miles, then found a place to rest and recover. The second day, about 75 miles. The third day, about 55 miles. Switching like that, I could

reach Lunaris in four to five days.

After that, I would need several days to fully recover.

Normally, I would never push myself this hard.

Five straight days of hard running had pushed my muscles past their limit.

Nita curled up deep inside my mind and fell into a heavy sleep. She was even more exhausted than I was.

I barely entered any towns along the way.

During the first two days, I could still find a sheltered spot outdoors and sleep for an hour or two. But during the last three days, I barely stopped at all. When I passed taverns, I didn’t dare go inside. I was afraid I’d lose time. I only drank from streams and kept moving. Whenever I came near rogue territory, I took a wide detour. Even if it meant running an extra ten miles, I couldn’t risk being delayed.

In just five days, I had lost a noticeable amount of weight. When I wiped sweat from my face, I could feel my ribs under my fingers.

I didn’t go straight to the address Woodrow gave me. First, I stopped at a shop and bought a bag of honey candy.

Then I followed the address to 13 Moonpear Street.

It was a property owned by the chief of the Lunaris Public Security Office. Woodrow said Samuel was staying here with the child.

I stood outside the door, my lips dry.

The alley was fairly wide. A guard stood at the entrance. He looked like an officer from the Public Security Office. Samuel must have borrowed officers to help keep watch.

The guard noticed me standing there without knocking. He studied me for a moment and asked carefully, “Are you Laila?”
