Grey was on edge the entire ride back to the Red Moon Pack. The feeling didn’t subside even after an enjoyable night with Harley after getting back. The looming threat was nagging at me. It felt like there was a piece missing, but I wasn’t sure what it was. I was usually good about picking up on the clues in these types of situations and my gut feelings were almost always right. My dad had taught me to trust my instinct, but this situation felt as if there was too much unknown. We had no information about the threat, just that there was one. I wasn’t sure if they would be attacking or just trying to kidnap Coral, and all of it was pissing me off.
I sat in my office, waiting for my Beta and Harley to come to the office so we could discuss what we knew, which wasn’t much of anything.

Harley“Are you sure you are good with the Luna Ceremony being tonight? I know that you just got back and I don’t want to rush it.” I mindlessly played with the cut on my hand as I spoke with Coral. After Jason had reached out to Anders to let him know about the rogue threat, Anders insisted on completing the ritual to have me officially join the pack so he could mindlink me. The cut was nearly healed, and the only reason I agreed to do it was because I knew I would still be able to communicate with Coral because of the guardian wolf connection. Otherwise, I would have lost my ability to communicate with her.Coral placed her hand on my shoulder, squeezing it gently. “I am positive, Harley. Working with Raina, Cammie, and the other red wolves has been so helpful. I know that there is still a lot to work through, but I am a

Anders“Damn it!” I yelled, cursing mostly myself for not picking up on the fact that Adam was from the Silver Springs Pack. While I knew that my mom was busy and waiting until after the Luna Ceremony made the most sense for talking to the new guardian wolf, Grey wanted us to talk to him now. I could feel the guardian wolf and we had a connection, so I did not doubt that Adam was a guardian wolf. What concerned me was the fact that he came from the Silver Springs Pack. He would have had to tell Alpha Carlson why he was leaving, which meant that Coral’s location was now known.I did not doubt our security or ability to protect the red wolves, but I was still concerned about the threat. There were always holes in even the best security system.“Neil, can you please come to my office

HarleyThe last two hours had been intense. Hair and makeup were done. My hair had been easy. The sides were pulled back after my hair was curled. I loved how it flowed down my back, especially since the back of the dress was open. The makeup, however, was a whole other story. Lizzie wanted to do a smokey eye, but I thought it was too dark. I don’t wear a lot of makeup, so everything she was doing seemed so dark.I ultimately agreed to a palate that included more neutral colors, but still had enough of a deep color to satisfy Lizzie. That woman was intense. She was very much focused on ensuring that my hair and makeup were perfect. She was quite passionate about all of it. And wow, did she like to be loud. Everything she did was loud.I stood in front of the mirror, looking at myself as I was ready for t

Harley“I want to see the security footage from inside the compound. Duncan,” Anders turned to speak, but Duncan cut him off.“I have a team ready to go. We are leaving immediately. Let me know if there is anything useful from the footage. Join us afterwards.” Duncan’s face held his anger and frustration. I knew that security was tight around the compound and Anders had spoken about recent and ongoing upgrades to security.“It had to be witches,” Raina spoke from behind us. “If the cameras didn’t pick up anything and none of the patrols saw anyone cross the pack border, then they had to be cloaked or masked somehow.”“There are witch enchantments around specific buildings in both packs and the

Anders It was late as we made our way to the Silver Springs Pack. Conversations with Delta Jeremy proved to be quite insightful and he seemed more than willing to help us out. I was not so naive to believe that the Delta might not be honest with me, but I did trust Harley’s judgment of him. Harley. I was disappointed that the celebration had been cut short. Grey was disappointed that the office mating process had not been completed, but the thought of fighting had changed his tune. He was still grumbling, but I promised him that I would shift and that seemed to appease him. Neil’s phone ringing pulled me from my thoughts. He turned, handing me the phone. “The Delta is on the phone.” “Delta Jeremy. How

Harley“I think I can hear you. I am just east of where you are. If you keep moving,” I was cut off from Anders as I was hit from the side.‘Jefferson,’ Senna seethed. I rolled from the hit, finding my footing about ten feet away from where I was hit. I looked over at the Beta, a feeling of disdain running through me. When I was forced to be an omega, I hated the pack and I hated the Beta, but now that Senna was present, the feeling was magnified one hundred fold. I did not doubt that I would do anything that I needed to protect myself.“Harlow. Nice to see you again. Although I will say, I wish that it was different circumstances.” Jefferson took a step towards me and a deep growl escaped my lips, Senna hanging just below the surface.

Harley“Everything okay?” Raina asked after we had been driving for several minutes. I had not spoken since entering the car, aside from asking Talia how she was feeling. While I knew that, deep down, Anders was simply looking out for my wellbeing, the fact that he even thought of using an Alpha tone on me was beyond insulting. I know that Alphas do use it. Hell, I knew that Anders used it when Caroline was in his office and wouldn’t leave. That didn’t mean, however, that he had any right to use it with me.Senna was seething. We were Anders’ mate. His partner. His Luna. All of this made us equals. I shook my head as Senna continued to go on and on about how pissed off she was and how pissed off I should be. I was pissed off, but Senna continually going on and on about it was nearly maddening. I just wanted to sit and t

HarleyA few days laterHealing had gone well for me, but slower for Anders. He was hoping the doctor would release him to regular activity today. I was adamant that nothing was going to take place between us until the doctor said he was better. Anders tried to run the pack border just yesterday, but was faced with a good bit of pain, and didn’t even make it halfway around the border. That didn’t mean that I didn’t want to do something with Anders. Senna had been driving me crazy with the images she kept sending me. I definitely knew that the need to bond with the mate after the mating ceremony was very, very strong after the last few days. If Anders wasn’t healed soon, I might not be able to keep shutting Anders down. We had a meeting scheduled with the Council today, which was taking place at the Red Wolf Compound. The Council had determined that it was safer to keep the prisoners at our prison, rather than trying to relocate them. Apparently, Alpha Lorenzo had more reach than we r

HarleyCoral stood next to me as I approached the small group of wolves surrounding Anders. Callan, following the touch from Raina, had moved to the side, allowing me access to Anders. Senna told me that he was healing well, and the fact that he was conscious as I approached put my mind at ease and my heart relaxed. “Harley, are you okay? Were you shot?” Anders asked, pushing up off the ground. I smiled weakly at him, placing my hand on his chest. I could feel the concern through the mate bond. And, even though it sounded stupidly cliche, it almost felt as if I could feel the warmth in my own heart from the mate bond. “I am okay, Anders, I promise. But I have something that I must take care of.” I stood back up, turning towards Alpha Carlson and Alpha Lorenzo. The field was eerily quiet. There was not even a breeze noted and the trees stood, unmoving. It was as if Coral’s command had made everything stand still. I am not sure what exactly Coral had done, but slowly our wolves were b
Alpha Anders Chapter 34
Harley My heart was pounding so loudly and deeply that I could feel it in my head. The pain that I could feel was almost too much and I knew that Anders was hurt badly. As much as I wanted to run to him and check that he was safe, I knew that I needed to get back inside. I turned around, Coral still behind me. “What is going on?” She asked as I made my way back towards the compound. Her voice held fear and uncertainty, and not just because she was a red wolf and could pick up on emotions. She was my sister and she knew me better than anyone. She knew that something was not right. The tears started running down my face as I spoke. “Anders is hurt, very badly, but there is a threat in the compound.” My voice caught in my throat, Anders pain becoming my own. “There are two new she-wolves who are a threat. We need to find them.” I approached the closest guardian wolf, diverting from entering the compound. “I need to know that every red wolf is accounted for. Also, I need a report on t
Alpha Anders Chapter 33
AndersMy thoughts were split, broken almost, as I thought about Harley, my mom, my uncle, Brett, and the fighting that was going on around me. There was also the nagging of thought of my need to protect the red wolf. It was also too much as I tried to concentrate on what was going on around me. This fighting was not well organized and the use of weapons added an additional layer of danger. I had not doubt in the abilities of my fighters. Over the years, my dad had focused on not just training the guardian wolves, but our warriors as well. We always knew that there would be a greater threat to the Red Moon Pack because we housed the red wolves, and now, we were faced with that threat. “There is a group of rogues attacking from the west,” Neil broke through my thoughts as he communicated via mindlink. I dodged an attack, swiping one of my extended claws across the neck of a rogue who had lunged at me. He crumbled to the ground, the vile creature falling dead next to me as I looked ar

Harley For as quickly as Raina stopped the attack and Brett and the scouts took out the rogues, time now seemed to standstill. All the previous events had happened in less than a minute, but now it felt as if each second was like minutes ticking by. Time seemed to completely stop as Raina collapsed next to her brother, Brett. I rushed to Raina’s side, the realization hitting me that, as the Luna, I would know if we had lost a pack member, and I did not feel that. Although my thoughts were all running through my head at a million miles an hour, I needed to steady myself. I needed to remain calm. Raina’s sobbing and grief and uncertainty rolling off of her told me that I had to be there for her. I placed my hand on Raina’s shoulder as I kneeled down next to her. I wasn’t sure if it would help or not, but I tried to exude a calmness, hoping that it would help wash over Raina. As I did, I took in Brett’s prone before me. There was a gunshot wound to the right side of

Harley The rain had started falling a few minutes ago and provided a nice reprieve from the silence in the car. After hearing from Anders and confirming that he was shot, my mind had gone into overdrive. Despite confirmation that he was okay, as well as reassurance from Raina that Alpha Callan had seen Anders and his wound, it still made me uneasy. ‘He will be okay,’ Senna broke me from my thoughts. ‘Grey is healing him and he will be fine.’ I sighed, leaning my head against the window. ‘I know. But guns? Weapons are rarely used in our fighting. Who the fuck decides that we need to use weapons? It is almost taboo.’ Senna retreated back, and I could sense that she was communicating with Grey. I took comfort in knowing that Senna and Grey had a
