As much as I knew Tate was right, I needed him to train me more than he realized. If he would just give me a chance, I am sure I could overcome this fear. I had to, if I didn’t everything I was doing was for nothing.
I had chased after him to try to convince him I was ready, but I had hesitated too long. Just as I caught up with him, he had already been on a bike and driving off like a mad man. I had been given the opportunity to become stronger and finally defend myself. Yet this fear I held onto was holding me back.
I have been training nearly every waking moment I could. Learning early on that I couldn’t push myself so hard, I found a pace that suited me. When I wasn’t training I was working on building up my strength by eating more. Or I was learning my way around the territory. Albeit, this was a lot large of a territory I was used to.
There were stores I had never even heard of. Everything here was large and extravagant.

Tatum-Skidding my bike sideways to a stop, I stopped my bike in the middle of the road. The rear end of my bike was with inches of hitting the male guarding the main road leading into the pack entrance of Lunar Eclipse.“What the hell man? You could have hit me!” The man said, jumping back after I had already come to a complete stop.Moving my gaze over the man, I wondered if he was a complete moron or what. If he had been worried about me hitting him, he should have moved out of the way. Instead, he had just stayed there like an idiot and only moved after the threat of me hitting him wasn’t even an issue. Rolling my eyes I ignored his statement.“Let your Alpha know Alpha Tatum is here to see him.” I said through clenched teeth.“Right away sir!” The guy said, standing up straight, puffing out his chest.I waited for a few seconds, letting my anger continue to boil. Not that it was even possible to

Brooklyn-I don’t know how long I had walked around the forest for, after leaving Jason to get back to his patrol. The sun had already set and the night chill was setting in. The feeling like I was being followed still flowed through me. Every cell in my body was urging me to run. I would, but I didn’t even know where I was.I must have veered off slightly, it was like I was walking in a never-ending forest. If it weren’t for my ability to adjust well to the dark, I wouldn’t even be able to see anything. I no longer knew if I was even in the pack territory any longer. Maybe if I just stopped and got a sense of where I was, I could figure out which direction to go.Coming into a small clearing, I stopped and turned around a couple of times, trying to see if I could see a path that would lead me out of the trees. When I came full circle once more, I found I was no longer alone. I hadn’t heard him, smelled him, or even sensed him. Stan

Tatum-“I don’t know. Some guy from the Royal Guard.” Mathew answered, taking a couple of steps back.“You really are an idiot. If she is the daughter of someone from the Royal Guard if it ever gets out what has happened to her, do you realize just how fucked you are? She was supposed to be protected, you idiot! Not to mention she probably comes from one of the strongest Alpha bloodlines.” I turned toward Chad, who was still laying on the floor like a coward.“And you, you’re the biggest idiot of them all. Mated to the daughter of someone in the Royal Guard could have guaranteed you a chance to become one of the strongest packs around. Everyone on the Royal Guard is of Royal blood, dumbass. They don’t just let anyone join.”Turning around before they could respond, I headed towards my bike, which was laying on the ground still running. Lifting the bike back on its wheels, I got on and drove away. One m

Brooklyn-I couldn’t wrap my head around any of it. Not what Felix had done, but what Tate had done for me. He protected me, turned against his friend and Beta. Never had anyone ever stood up for me as he did. I couldn’t fathom why, it made no sense. Especially considering he seems so cold to me. Maybe not all the time, but his mood swings around me were enough to give me whiplash.What was it about him that made him so different? Why was it that looking at him right at this moment, I felt safe? How was it that even after what just happened, looking at his bare chest, I wanted to run my hands over him and kiss him? This wasn’t the first time I have seen him without a shirt. I just never thought anything of it. So why now?“Are you okay?”Even his voice sounded different to me. It was the same, but so very different at the same time. Now hearing it, I felt my heart skip a beat and a light feathery caress moved over my skin. I

Tatum-I should have just killed him. All along, right under my nose Brook has felt unsafe. I had been too blind to see it. Okay, so maybe I figured something was going on, but I had trusted Felix and I had just thought Brook was still dealing with the aftermath of what happened to her.“Why didn’t you come to me?”The struggle to keep my composure was very much real. A part of me wanted to go and find him, then show him just how far my tolerance reaches. I searched her eyes as she iced my hand, trying to figure out just what she had been thinking. I don’t know why I didn’t pull my hand away, it was already healing.Maybe it was from the softness of her hands and the gentleness she was using. It was a far cry from the scared little girl she had been when I found her. If this is what she needed to do to keep her mind off what happened, then I will oblige her.Besides, I couldn’t deny that her touch didn’t fe

Brooklyn-I woke up feeling different. When I looked into the mirror in the bathroom after taking a shower, I barely recognized myself. Today I looked as if I slept well for the first time in a long time. I had certainly slept longer than usual and couldn’t even remember what I dreamt of. I looked refreshed and healthy.My cheekbones weren’t as prominent as they use to be, I looked like I filled out a bit more just in one night. Even my complexion looked brighter and not as dull. I wasn’t stressing over what I was going to do about leaving. Nor was I worried about running into any problems. After seeing Tate do what he did last night, I actually felt safe for the first time in years.Walking out into the living room, I paused when the front door came into view. It no longer had a hole in it and looked new. When had it been replaced? I knew I hadn’t imagined the hole. Had I really slept through someone replacing it last night? Forgetting w

Tatum-I waited for her to respond since I couldn’t read her expression. If she wasn’t comfortable with it, I wouldn’t push her, but I really hoped she agreed. The more time I spend with her, the more frustrated I become and I wanted to put as much distance between us as possible. I wanted her to learn how to protect herself, I just didn’t want to be the one doing it all the time.As the minutes ticked by, I wondered if she would ever answer. She kept rubbing her hand and that smile she had earlier was now gone. I don’t know why it bothered me so much that the first real smile I had ever seen on her had been for my brother. Hopefully, she didn’t have any romantic notions about him.Of course, she could always sign a nondisclosure agreement with someone if she did in fact want to be with someone during our term. My brother on the other hand was off of the table. He was would only ask questions and then it would just be a matter

Brooklyn-Just as I pulled the lasagna out of the oven, I heard a knock on the door. I figured it was probably Eric. Placing the pan on the oven, I was just about to answer the door, but thought better of it. If I continue doing what I am doing, I can keep myself preoccupied enough to not let my nerves get the better of me, hopefully.“Come in.” I hollered, just loud enough so he would be able to hear me.As I had suspected, Eric comes right on in. He stops just shy of entering the kitchen and inhales deeply. Moving the pan from the oven, to set it on the island, I grabbed a knife and spatula from the drawer. It was better to face him, rather than have my back turned towards him.“That smells delicious. I could come back later if I came at the wrong time.”“No, it is fine, come on in. I have plenty if you are hungry.”“A woman after my heart.” He laughed, coming to sit on the stool across from

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
