Maureen's POV"You'll have to learn to move faster, Maureen. You are not weak. I know that you are strong, and I know what you can do. You have to get your head into the game. You are going to be the Queen of the world. We will be your minions. We will have to listen to you. If you tell us to destroy your enemy, we must do it. We will have no choice because you will be so strong that you can kill all of us. Look at me. Listen to me. That sword you hold in your hand is your great-grandfather's. He was a tough soldier. He thought in many wars. He killed many men with that sword. Use your feet to move fast. You have to learn to catch your opponent off guard. You must also remember that your enemy will not pay that if they can kill you," Vladimir shouts at me. I don't want to use my powers against the werewolves. "I am trying, but I do not believe I can fight the werewolves because they are the children of the moon goddess. I do not want to fight the children of the moon goddess, as I be
Dean's POVI don't know why Leon and the original vampires are not trying to get their stuff back, and I think it is because they are trying to train Maureen to take us on. They will also need a bigger army to take us on than the few vampires they have with them. We will need to protect the humans around this area against the vampires. If they are also here, they will try to assemble an army. And the only way they can get an army is by turning humans into vampires. We cannot allow that, as most humans around here are peaceful. We can also not allow them to have an army of vampires to fight us. If they want an army, we will make sure that they will have to go to Europe to get them so that we can train and get more wolves to help us. We cannot allow them to build an army here. We must force them to go to Europe or anywhere else. We cannot allow them to stay in America. I wonder if there is a way to protect all American citizens against the original vampires. I do not know. Perhaps, if T
Tamara's POVWe leave Gazelle and decide that we are going to go to the castle and see if we can call out Maureen. I agree with Gazelle that it will be better if we can kill Maureen as soon as possible. I do not want to kill her because we have known for a very long time. But we have no choice. Once Maureen discovers what a powerful creature she is, she will come after us and not stop. I cannot put my wolves in danger. I am getting along with Dean better. I still don't know if I want him as a mate. But I'm willing to give him a chance. Firstly, we must eliminate Maureen, the original vampires, and Leon. As we start running to the castle, Martin and Miriam join us. "Leon is a powerful gypsy, and we cannot let you fight him alone if he uses magic against you to protect Maureen. You will be weaker, and I must be there to counter his magical attack. Gazelle sent me and told me if I needed to kill Leon, I must do it because she would not be able to. She still loves Leon, although he is cr
Vladimir's POVI am furious. Leon and Maureen are dead. Maureen was supposed to be our secret weapon, but she got a big ego and decided to go on her own to fight the two first wolves. I warned her, but she did not want to listen. Now she has turned to dust. Leon was supposed to get up and get the spell book. I want to walk in the daylight like Maureen had. Everything has gone wrong. We will go back to Europe and come back with a bigger army. The werewolves will be ready for us if we attack them now. We will have to be very careful. We will attack them when they expect the least. I need to bigger army. There is nothing we can do now but wait. Stupid Leon, he ruined everything for us. We had everything planned out. The humans and hunters were supposed to take out the werewolves. They were the best equipped to do it. I knew we had trouble when I saw those two alphas had the first wolves. I wait till nightfall. I first want to go to that Packhouse and see if there is no way that we can g
Dean's POVI am looking at the body at the bottom of the cliff. Something is not right. I know Doreen was unhappy, but I cannot believe she would commit suicide. She was too much of a coward. And I think that the vampire has killed her. I feel there is something more to her death. I know that she hated us because of her husband and Maureen. She was always glaring at Tamara and me. I wonder what she did to the last few hours of her life. We do have security cameras in the Packhouse, but we never told anybody about them because we do not want our Pack to feel that we do not trust them. Still, we do have to have security footage in case somebody breaks into our Packhouse. Gazelle is still mourning Leon. She and the gypsies went to bury him in the little town where they came from. I know that the vampires have gone, and the lab is destroyed. The vampires are gone for now, but we cannot relax. We need to get all the wolves in this area to join us. One never knows when the original vampire
Tamara's POVI am standing on the river bank, waiting for Dean to get out of the water. We are both wet, and we have so much fun. I know that the moon goddess gave him to me as a mate, and I can see why. Dean is tall and handsome. The muscles under the uniform that we are wearing are showing as he gets out of the water. He is stunning, and I can not take my eyes off his body. However, I do not want him to know I am in love with him. I put on my shoes and start running back to the Packhouse, and he runs after me trying to catch me. I dodge him as I do not want him to hug or kiss me, as I know I cannot resist him. I do not want to give in this easily. I want him to work hard for me. I want him to appreciate me the day he and I become mates. I am running away from my mate again. I don't hear him behind me anymore. I look over my shoulder to see if I can see him. But I run into something that feels like a wall. His arms go around me as he laughs."Gotcha. Did you think you could run away
Third Person's POVThe wolf has gathered around from all over America. They have friends in Europe, and most of them are in contact with their friends. The wolves in Europe have also made a big Pack. They know they will have to fight the originals everywhere they go because they cannot allow them to build and city where they can keep humans as cattle. Humans are not cattle, and humans are there to be protected by werewolves and hunters. They were the first creatures on this earth. They were the original children of the Moon Goddess, but they had forgotten about her. Humans forgot about the old gods, and Selene put gypsies among them to remind them about the gods. Gypsies had magical powers, and at first, they were enough to protect the humans as they did not have many enemies. Then came the vampires, hunters, and werewolves. Everybody knows the history from there. The sun cursed the vampires who started feeding on humans, hunters were made to protect humans, and when they got too weak
Third Person's POVTamara, Dean, and Gazella stare at the beautiful goddess for a while. The first Tamara saw her, she already thought she was beautiful, but now she's even more beautiful. The Moon Goddess looks like one of the gypsies but is very beautiful, and there is no such beauty on Earth. They are still on their knees in front of the goddess."Sorry. We are staring, but you are gorgeous. We came to talk to you and need your advice," Tamara says. "Get up from your knees. You don't have to stand on your knees all the time while we're talking. I know what you want to ask me. What will happen to you if the originals die? I know all the vampires are not evil. Some of them started praying to me and asking me to help them. Some of them have accepted me as their goddess. They are also afraid that if the original style, all of them will die. What will happen to them? The modern-day vampires are not as evil as the olden vampires were. They do not feed off humans anymore and do not want
Dean's POVI can see that Jonathan White is now really worried. He had seen what had happened to his friend when he tried to fight Tamara. He must know now that we are indeed the first Alphas. I know that he is not willing to fight me anymore, but he cannot back down now because he was the one that challenged me. I will not allow him to back down. I am going to fight him. I am sick and tired of people thinking they are better than others. I want him to understand that there is no such thing as someone being better because of their background or the money they have. Jonathan White wants to talk to me, and I can see his doubts. I do not care what he thinks, and I do not care what he believes. But today, we are going to fight. I know that I can beat him without any problems. "Alpha Dean, I am very sorry about what I have done. My Pack is not as strong as yours, and I am not as strong as you are. I know that I have promised you that I will fight you, but I cannot. Please spare me and my
Tamara's POV"Your father is here. I'm ready for this fight, please, honey. Believe me. I can handle this. I will make this fight as quick as possible. I will not put your child in too much danger. I promise you I will walk out of this fight victorious. Our baby and I will be fine. I can promise you that I will not put his life in danger. He is already in my heart," I say as we walk outside to meet his father. Jonathan White is with him, and I can see that both of them are ready to fight us. "Our enemies have arrived and are ready to fight us. I know we will be fighting both of them, but if you need my help, do not hesitate to ask for my help," Dean says."I will not hesitate to ask your help, especially if our child is in danger. How old baby comes first, and I promise you I will not do anything to harm it. Now, Honey, get ready. We are going to fight. We are going to show these snobs. Who is the boss? I know they think they are better than us, but they can be better than us. We are
Tamara's POVI am up a little the following morning. I want to be ready for my fight with Mike Smith. I know that Alpha Jonathan White has challenged Dean. We both know how that is going to end. Both Mike Smith and Jonathan White will die today. We are ready for our fight, but I like to prepare. And that is why I am up early. I don't want to prepare physically but mentally as well. I know that I can do this. I know I can beat him, but I want to pray to Moon Goddess to help me today. I know you trust me because she gave me all this power I have as a first alpha. She would not have made me a first alpha if she did not believe in me. I have to show her I am proud of what you made me. Today I'm not fighting for my honor. I am fighting for the glory of the Moon Goddess."Are you ready to fight today, my love?" Dean asks from behind me."I have never been as ready for a fight as I am today. I am sorry, I will have to kill your father. I do not want to do that, but I believe what he has done
Dean's POVI am furious at my father for daring to challenge my mate. Why does he not challenge me? Does he think he can be the woman? I know Tamara has already accepted the challenge, but I am not happy about it. I do not believe that my father should have challenged Tamara. He should have challenged me. Although Tamara and I are the alphas of the Red River Pack, it doesn't feel right for a man to challenge a woman. What kind of person is my father? He is a coward who will only challenge women and think he can win them."Do not make us lose more respect for you, Mike. Why would you challenge Tamara, who is a woman? It would be best to reconsider your actions because we can no longer stand behind you. We had respect for you because you were our alpha once. But a man challenges a woman because he thinks he can win her in a fight. Does not deserve any of our respect," One of the elders says. I can see that nobody has respect for my father, and I cannot blame them. I do not have respect
Mike's POV Drake betrayed me. And now all my spies are gone from the Pack, and I do not know what is happening there. Only I can get my hands on him. I will kill him myself. How dare he? He took my money and gave it to that stupid woman, now the Luna of the Red River Pack. I am sure I can get somebody to kill her, but I do not know who and where I will find somebody willing to fight her because I am desperate to get rid of her. She is the reason that the Pack and my son all turned against me. "So Drake turned against you. What are you going to do now? Do you think I should still sponsor you? I do not want war against my Pack and the Red River Pack. You have promised me that my daughter will become your son's mate. However, I cannot see that happening because you are not a man of your word. I am not willing to risk my Pack. I will go to Dean and talk to him about what you have done because I will not be a part of this and will turn my back on you and your wife. My daughter can get a
Tamara's POVI know Dean feels guilty because of what his father did. I wish I could tell him I do not hold it against him and that he would believe me. I know we must take care of his father and friends. They are a bunch of snobs thinking that they are better than everybody else. And we cannot allow that to happen in this Pack again. They can go to another pack if they do not want me as their Luna. I am not going to feel guilty for who I am. My parents were murdered, and that is why I am an orphan. It was not my fault that they were murdered. It was Mike Smith's fault. I am still sitting with Dean holding him."I wish you would stop blaming yourself, but I can hear the men coming with the traitors anyway. Let's take care of them first, and then we decide what we will do about your father. I want to stay close to you instead of close to Drake. I think that the two of us can decide what we will do about your father when we get to that problem. I want you to know I love you and do not b
Dean's POV After hearing what Drake had to tell me, I feel that my father has betrayed all of us our whole lives. I cannot believe that he is this wicked. How could he kill his best friend and then pretend his brother did it? I wondered how much he paid those rogues to kill Borris and Bianca. Borris was more of a father to me than he was. It was the one that protected me against Mike. I cannot think of Mike as my father anymore. I am not hurt. I am pissed off. My whole life, I have tried to impress Mike. I tried to be the son he wanted me to be. Now I find out that he has feet of clay. I never realized what a snob my father was. He thinks he's better than everybody else, and nobody can come near his son because he is supposed to be like him. I cannot believe I tried to please him my whole life, but then again, I was young and the boy without a wolf that my father beat into submission. He made me believe I was better than everybody else and that the weaker wolves should leave our Pack
Drake's POVI watch Mike as he walks out of the bar. The stupid man thinks I am going to fight against a First Alpha. He just gave me a lot of money to do nothing because I would not fight Tamara Smith. He can call her Tamara Brown, but we all know she is the Luna of Dean Smith. We all know we cannot mess with her without getting into trouble with Dean. Am I going to betray him? Of course, I will betray him because I won't give him his money back and will not allow his wealthy friends to come after me and my friends. Basically, I have two options. I have to run from this area, which I'm not planning to do, or I can go to Dean and Tamara and tell them what Mike is planning. I look at my mates at the other end of the bar. I called him to come over. Chelsea is the first one to come over to me. I know it is because she is in love with me. Vanessa sharmains. Scott and Donovan follow. "What's up, boss?" Scott is the first one to ask."What do you think about killing Tamara Smith?" I ask."
Mike's POVI have to go and see some of my rogue friends. I need to talk to them because I want them to help me eliminate Tamara. I know the rogues do not like the Red River Pack. I know they do not want them to be around, and they do not want a Luna for the Red River Pack. I will have to make a plan. I will have to get the Tamara away from the Pack and in the claws of the rogues. I know the ropes will have to have a beautiful little girl like her in their grip. I do not care what they do to her as long as she never comes near my son and the Red River Pack again. It is her fault that my son wants nothing to do with me. However, I first have to go and see the rogues. The ones that killed Tamara's parents are now dead. But I know a few others, and I will go and see them and ask them if they are willing to work with me again. Of course, they will get paid as much as last time. I hope that I will believe me and not think that I will put them in a lot of trouble by telling them to kill he
