When I had opened the door, I had not expected to find Alpha Tatum standing on the other side. It looked like he had just stepped out of the shower and gotten dressed. His short black hair was mussy and wet. The smell of strong liquor wafted towards me, and I had to do my best not to gag.
It wasn’t that the smell of alcohol bothered me, but it was what it did to those who drank it. In my experience, it was never a good sign when someone drank. I had countless run-ins with Chad over the years when he had drunk himself into a stupor. Not that I had ever done anything to provoke his beatings, but when he drank it was completely different.
Oddly I didn’t feel the fear that I was accustomed to when facing this Alpha after he had clearly been drinking. My curiosity as to why he was standing outside my door after midnight was piqued. I wasn’t sure if I should invite him in or not. I saw the way his gaze perused over me, no doubt seeing if my

Tatum-Really regretting asking her about her past right about now. Anger boiled inside me to the point I was ready to go back to that pack and teach them a lesson they would never forget. I knew I was going to regret asking my next question even more, but I needed to know.“What had happened for you to end up like that when I found you?”Those bright blue eyes of her rapidly dimmed at my question. I had just opened a can of worms and I wanted to kick myself. Hearing even the first little bit she had told me, I don’t know why I kept digging deeper. My vocal cords just had a mind of their own and when the questions started coming out, I did nothing to stop them.I was starting to understand her a lot more, even if I hated what she was telling me. The heaviness of her story was weighing down on me and I should have never even considered putting her in this contract. If it had just been she needed a place to stay, it wouldn’t have bee

Brooklyn-For the last three days, I didn’t venture outside of my own private area. No one bothered me and I haven’t seen or heard from Tate since the night I spilled my guts to him. He had given me an opening to tell him about the threat the guy gave me, but I decided it was probably water under the bridge.He had already seemed mad, I wasn’t wanting to add to his anger. These were his people. Besides, it wasn’t like I was hurt or anything. I had been a little surprised and a bit uneasy with his response before he left. It did make me feel a little better that maybe I wouldn’t have to worry so much here.Not that I was ready to just let down my guard any time soon. What caught me off guard the most, was that I had so easily opened up to him. It didn’t make a lick of sense to me. A weight had been lifted off my shoulders from unloading all that I did though. The only other person I had ever talked so openly with had been my da

Tatum-Pacing in the hall, I tried to calm myself. I had seen she was afraid of me, so I left. The more I learn about her, the more pissed I got. She had been not only abused but severely neglected. Being left in the care of a pack that should have protected her, looked out for her, made me question the judgment of who sent her there.I really wanted to get my hands on whoever had put her in Lunar Eclipse and wring their neck. If she hadn’t gotten out of there when she did, or if I hadn’t found her, would she have ended up like Leslie? I had a feeling that is exactly what would have happened.Running up the stairs, I made my way to the gym and went straight towards the punching bag. Needing to release my anger, I started hitting the bag as hard as I could. After punching a hole right in the middle after beating on it for a while, I was still no calmer. Even watching the sand drain from the bag, while it was satisfying, did nothing for me.Turn

Brooklyn- I was sure I pissed him off this time. Just because he hasn’t hit me, he still had the biggest temper I have ever seen. That was saying a lot too. Considering I had been surrounded by people that hated me to the max. Was I intentionally trying to test him or something, to see just how far I could push him? This hot and cold temper of his frustrating me to no end. I couldn’t figure him out and I spent all night trying. He had left in such a hurry last night without even finishing his food. Had I said the wrong thing? I mean one minute he was asking me how I felt and the next he was practically storming out of the place. It was five in the morning and while I didn’t want to deal with everyone, I knew I had no choice. It was part of the contract and I was obligated to follow it. Digging through the clothes I had, I couldn’t decide what to wear. There hasn’t been a time in my life that I could remember that I had so many options. Sifting through

Tatum-Turning around, I let my gaze travel up and down her body. Seeing her in my clothes, had me fighting the urge to throw her on my bed to ravish her fully. There was no way I could deny that she was stunning. Every inch of her, from the top of her head, that I now know smelled of cherry almond, down to her small and dainty feet.I was almost certain she has been untouched by any man, or at least I hoped so. I would hate to find out something far worse than what she has already told me, happened to her. Clenching my jaw, I didn’t move until I knew I could trust myself not to react and do exactly what I had in mind.Taking a few seconds longer than I wanted, I was finally able to approach her. She flinched slightly but stayed in place as I tugged on the bottom of the shirt, to tie it off to the side. Knowing that her response was from the way I handled her when we stood in her bedroom, it quelched my desire for her. Well, enough that I could be this clo

Brooklyn-It had been a little unnerving having Tate so close to me. I hadn’t known what his intentions were, and it had taken me a minute to understand what he was trying to do. As we moved, I started to feel surer of myself.Each thing he called out, he helped me with the movement. Some of the things he wasn’t able to help me in the same way, he would occasionally tell everyone to hold their position so he could correct my stance or where my limps needed to be.I tried to remember every movement and what they were called. I appreciated what Tate had done, but I felt like it put me at a disadvantage with everyone else.If it wasn’t for me, I am pretty sure that they would have been doing more advanced things.I was going to make it a daily routine that every chance I was able to, I would practice these moves in my room, or in private. The last thing I wanted to do, was to show everyone my incompetence.We continued training
Contract Luna Chapter 20
Tatum-It was five after six in the morning and Brook still hadn’t shown up to training. Whatever her reason for being late was, it better be good. I had let her not attend training the first couple of days because she had been injured. Now there were no excuses. After yesterday’s performance, I was more insistent that she continues training. She could barely even throw a punch.I knew she wasn’t injured, weak maybe, but not injured. Her weakness didn’t even stem from her injuries. I was certain that after everything she had told me, she was just malnourished to the extreme. It really was no wonder her wolf hadn’t shown itself, she probably wouldn’t even survive her first shift.If she didn’t think she had anything to wear, well I had already seen to that yesterday and had dropped off a bag of clothes after dinner. She hadn’t answered the door, so I had left them hanging on the doorknob. I knew she got them since t

Brooklyn-Tate continued to help me with my form, each time my punching improved and I was soon able to throw a proper punch. The longer we worked on it, the better I started to feel. It felt good knowing that I could now throw a punch. It may not be much, but it was better than what I had known.“Let’s call it a day for now. We can work on your kicking tomorrow in class.”Now was my chance. I could see if maybe I could work on my own up here. I wasn’t going to tell him the real reason, but maybe I could convince him to let me train alone, at least until I approved.“I would like to train on my own.”“No, out of the question.”“I promise I will work hard every day, but I am only holding everyone back. It isn’t fair to them that they are being trained at my level.”I hadn’t wanted to use that reason, since it showed just how unskilled I really was, even though he a

Brooklyn-“Are you okay in there?” I heard Tate ask from just outside the bathroom door.For probably the fifth time in the past couple of days since Tate woke up, I have been hovering over the toilet. It was like I had this urge to throw up, but nothing would happen. I couldn’t even make myself throw up, even when I tried.I don’t know what was going on, all I knew is I felt miserable. Even thinking about food made me sick to my stomach. Yet when I did eat, it was as if I was starved or something. This completely sucked and I just wanted it to be over.“I don’t know.” I answered honestly.The doorknob shook, but I was thankful I at least had half the mind to lock it. The last thing I wanted was for Tate or anyone for that matter to see me like this. As far as I knew werewolves didn’t get sick in the same way humans did, but after doing some research on the computer, I was sure that maybe I had the st

Brooklyn- As soon as I felt his mouth, I nearly orgasmed at the very second. It has been far too long since I have had felt so much pleasure from him. Until he showed me the true meaning of desire, I had been perfectly fine, now it was as if I craved his touch every second of every day. My head fell back as he licked and sucked at my clit. My mind practically turned to mush as he did so, making it nearly impossible to form a sensible thought. Just when I thought I could take as much as I possibly could, he pulled my hips towards him until I was right on the edge of the counter. Out of pure reflex alone, I moved my hands to grab the edge of the counter and hold on as if my life depended on it. He lifted one of my legs and placed it over his shoulder, giving me just a bit more balance. Or at least I thought that was his intention until I felt his tongue slide from my clit and move down until it reached my entrance. In one fluid motion, he thrust his ton

Tatum-I could tell something was bothering Brook, but I couldn’t tell what it was. As much as I wanted to press on it, I kept my mouth shut. The way she nibbled on her bottom lip made me think whatever was going on in her head, she needed to come to terms with on her own time and decide if she wanted to tell me.Patiently I waited, leaning up against the kitchen counter, while she began to pace in the kitchen. I had thought maybe I could get in a shower and then take her to bed to have my way with her, but then she started acting a bit strange. It was moments like this that I wish I was a mind reader.“I haven’t been fair to you.” Brook said when she finally quit pacing.“What do you mean?” I asked, raising one of my eyebrows and tilting my head ever so slightly to the side.She didn’t respond right away, just started biting down on her bottom lip. It made me start to feel a little nervous myself, though I

Brooklyn-I waited until the auditorium cleared out before I looked over at my father. He was watching me intently the entire time, but I tried to ignore it. I don’t know why, but it annoyed me that he spoke up on my behalf. I wanted to show that I could take initiative on my own, but now I think everything was put to rest because of who my father was.“Did I say something wrong?” He asked when I just looked at him without saying a word.Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm myself before speaking. It wasn’t that I wasn’t happy to see him, I just wanted to make a name for myself. Now everyone knew who my father was and I wasn’t sure if others would respect me because of what I did and not who I was or who I was related to.Until recently I have been on my own. For the first time, I thought I was strong enough to be able to stand on my two feet and lead everyone. Now the question would always be there, was it I or my fat

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

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-“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- 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

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
