Brooklyn-
“Just hang tight, I am working on a few things.” Tate’s voice rung through my head like a melody, calming me instantly.
“What is going on?” I asked, not sure of much at this point.
Other than hearing what Tate and my father were saying, I didn’t know what was going on. On the surface, it looks as if everything was going wrong. I knew I had a feeling things were not going to go as we planned. It had been too easy, but how bad were things really?
Just by looking at Tate, I could see a lot was going on in his head. We had all agreed that other than Tate, no one was to link with me, that way I could continue to act the part I was supposed to be playing. Admittingly it wasn’t that hard, but if I was being honest, I wasn’t entirely acting. I was scared beyond belief. From the moment my father hit Tate, everything changed.
“We have more hunters and wolves coming at us from all sides. We are going to try to get them to come inside and trap t
Brooklyn-When I finally reached Tate, he immediately grabbed me and pulled me to him. I had to clench my jaw to keep myself from screaming out, from the sudden movement it caused me. Twisting my leg slightly, I gazed down and found a blade embedded into my thigh.Reaching down, I yanked it out as quickly as I could. I felt myself become light-headed from the rush of pain and the blood loss, but it quickly faded. I have been hurt before, but it almost felt as if just being in Tate’s arms, helped ease the pain.It was as if the pain just completely subsided. I was just about to drop the blade when I thought better of it and decided to use it as a weapon. In all the time I have trained, I have yet to be trained with any form of weapon, but I had no doubt I could handle a knife. After all, I used them plenty in the kitchen, so it couldn’t be that difficult.“Are you okay?” I heard Tate ask, his breath hot against the side of my neck.
Tatum-No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get close enough to Shane to take him out. One after another wolves and hunters alike kept me away from Shane. Every time I got a glimpse of him he was standing back, just watching. It almost seemed as if he were amused by this.I just needed a small break from others attacking me, just long enough to take a break in the chaos to get to him. Every time I thought I had time to make my way towards him, I would get slammed again by someone else. I think it was time to get the ones we had hidden in the warehouse to join.While we were making waves in our attacks and knocking others out, we would probably get further if we brought more in. It would also allow me to get to Shane without being interrupted. So far it looked as if we were winning, only losing a few in the process.“It is time.” I spoke through the link, connecting to all the warriors hidden away.In just a matter of seconds and
Brooklyn-It was like a switch inside of me just flipped. I felt different, since the moment I took Chad’s heart out of his chest. If I would have known I was going to feel like this, I would have done it long ago. I don’t know why I had hesitated before, but this time when the time came to take his life, I had done so without blinking.Now I felt stronger, surer of myself and what I was capable of. It was as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Standing here with Tate, I just wanted to end all of this with him. There was nowhere I would rather be than right here beside him as we put an end to our past and start living for our future.“I no longer care if you live or die. If what you say is true, then I have no use for any of you. You will all die today.” Shane spoke.Shane was the first one to move, running at Tate and me with a speed that was almost equal to mine. Without time to consider my next move, I quickly moved ou
Brooklyn-“Brook…” I heard Eric say aloud, yet it sounded so far away.“I don’t think she can hear you.” Another voice said, but I was unsure of who was speaking, as that voice sounded far away as well, but also slightly unfamiliar.“Is there anything you can do for him?” I heard Eric ask.“Not here I can’t. We need to get him back to the pack. There is some sort of poison on the blade.” I heard Jarod say.That is when everything clicked, I was still latched on to a very dead Shane. I had been so focused on what I was doing that I allowed myself to become oblivious to everything else. Tate had been stabbed and I didn’t even know if he was okay. Releasing Shane, I took one last look and saw that he was indeed very much dead.When I turned, I found Eric, my father, and Jarod surrounding Tate, who was still laying on the ground unconscious. Jarod was examining the blade th
Brooklyn- Three days passed by and still no signs of Tate waking up. According to the pack doctor, she wasn’t sure if he even would wake up. I found out that wolfbane doesn’t just attack us physically, but it could also attack our wolf. Unless Axel can come out of it, there may be a chance that Tate could die. Even with the wolfbane completely removed, Tate wasn’t out of the woods yet. I have been staying in the hospital room with Tate, hoping that I would be there if he woke up. I have tried many times to reach him, even Skye has tried reaching Axel, but we have had no luck. As much as I wanted to be in the room until Tate woke, I had to take on the duties as Alpha, since I was Luna. At first, I hadn’t known the first thing about leading the pack, but Eric has been at my side nonstop. We still had no idea what happened to Ryan. I currently had a couple of warriors out searching for him and his guards, but it was as if he just disappeared off the face
Tatum-“Brook!” I screamed, watching as the life faded from her eyes.I had been so sure I could protect her. The doubts I had, I pushed away, and I gave into believing she was strong enough to protect herself. When we entered the warehouse, she had been so nervous that I had no choice but to keep myself calm, at least for her sake.The worse part of it all, I couldn’t get to her. It was almost as I was frozen in time, unable to move. I just had to stand here and watch the one I gave my heart to fall to the ground lifeless. As hard as I tried, I couldn’t make my feet move forward.As she now laid there, unmoving, I kept trying to get to her. My body felt weak like it was being weighed down by an unseen force. My heart was beating wildly in my chest, feeling as if it was going to explode at any moment.“Don’t die! I can’t lose you too!” I screamed, continuing to try to force my body to move.&ld
Brooklyn- “It is time.” Eric said, as soon as I opened up the door to the room I was staying in with Tate. I had known that it was bound to come, but I had spent all night trying to reach Tate. When Eric had told me that the Elders were going to strip Tate of his Alpha role, I felt as if my world was disintegrating around me. On one hand I couldn’t care less about being Luna. On the other, I knew how much it meant to Tate by being Alpha. “We just need a little more time.” I whispered, feeling as if my heart was breaking. “I know, but they aren’t going to give it to us.” Eric said, sounding just as defeated as I felt. “He is going to wake up, I just know it.” I said, looking up at him and hoping there was something he could do. “I want to believe that, but we have to be realistic. It has been a week and there is still no change. I am not saying I don’t think he will never wake up, but we need to start looking at the possibility it could
Tatum- I wasn’t sure how Axel and I managed to get out of the state we were in, but when I had woken up and found Brook laying over me, the how didn’t matter. I was back and that was the only thing I cared about at the time. When I told her I was willing to give up my title for her, I had thought she would have agreed to it. It would have probably been a good idea to give it up either way, so I could focus on her, but I also loved being Alpha. I felt as if there was still so much more I could do as Alpha. Taking the hand, she held out to me after she asked her question, I accepted it without a word. Together, hand in hand, we made our way to the auditorium. The halls were empty, so I suspected everyone else was at the meeting, which I was kind of glad about. The idea of surprising everyone was sounding better and better with each step we took. This wasn’t the kind of reunion I had wanted when I woke up, then again nothing in my life has ever gone acco
