Chapter 16 – Broken

CRACK! I let out a scream and tried to shield myself from the whip. I was panting hard and looked around for Ranger, but all I could see was darkness. There was nothing. No Ranger. No whip.

I heard the sound of the CRACK again and realized it was only thunder. I was still in the hole. The earth around me was cold and moist from the heavy rains. I was beyond hunger pains and dehydration. I had lost a lot of blood and felt so weak.

“Please Moon Goddess, bring me home.” I prayed as I shivered from the cold. “End my suffering.” Everyone I loved was gone, I had nothing, and I didn’t belong here.

“I’m here Lucy.” I heard Lia’s broken voice.

“Lia? Where have you been? I thought you left me?” I cried, relieved I wasn’t alone.

“I sent all my energy to our pup, trying to protect it. I’m sorry Lucy, I let you down.” She whimpered with grief.

“Lia, it’s not your fault. It’s his. He never deserved us or the pup.”

“I’m too weak to heal you, I think we’re dying.” Her voice was la

    Chapter 17 – Run“WHYTHEHELLWASN’TINOTIFIEDIMMEDIATELYWHEN SHE WOKE UP?” I heard Ranger roar outside my door.“Sir, she just woke up twenty minutes ago.” Delta Cole said. He was on guard duty outside my door and had switched places with Max. I had been awake last night, but Cole looked into the room this morning and caught me with my eyes open.Dr. Baker was in the room examining me when Ranger swung the door open. His hands were clinched in fists and his piercing blue eyes trained on me. In a flash he was standing next to my bed. Feeling the tension in the room, Dr. Baker, excused herself. “I’ll be outside if you need me.”Ranger stood silent for a moment looking me over before he spoke. “Why didn’t you tell me about the pup? My pup?”A lump formed in my throat thinking about my baby. “You rejected me because I was weak. I wasn’t going to let you reject our pup too.”“You couldn’t have hidden it much longer. You were planning on running away with my pup, weren’t you?”Hell yes

    Chapter 18 – CaughtThe wind had a chill that promised flurries of snow this evening. Lia was in control and running through the dense mountain woods heading north. She only stopped twice for water.There’s no way Ranger’s trackers could find us now; Lia was so fast compared to other wolves. Her super speed made the scenery blur by fast. The further north we went, the colder it got. A few more hours of running and the sun was setting.“We should find a place to sleep for the night.” I told Lia.“I can keep running Lucy, I’m picking up a faint smell of rogues and want to make sure we’re safe.”I didn’t think there would be many rogues this far north because winter is coming. The snow tends to move rogues further south, towards warmer weather and more resources. We continued to run for a few more hours and the snow flurries started to come down. Lia had thick fur to keep us warm, but I could feel her getting tired after running all day and we both needed sleep.We stopped at the opening

    Chapter 19 – Mate AgainI opened my eyes and saw a dark blue bed canopy with gold trim overhead. I was in a huge bed under warm blankets that had amazingly fluffy pillows. The ceilings were high with beautiful inlays, the windows were grandiose, and the furniture looked fit for a castle. Where the hell are we? I thought as I sat up in the bed and scanned the impressive room I was in.The big wooden door creaked open and a she wolf poked her head in. Her jet black hair was in a cute pixie cut and her blue eyes sparkled. She smiled and stepped into the room completely. She may have been a little bigger in size than me and a few inches taller, but she had a powerful aura.“Ah, Lucy you’re awake.”How did she know my name? She looked a little familiar, but I couldn’t place her. She stood silent for a moment with her eyes glazed over mind linking someone. A moment later her focus retuned back to me.“Your shoulder had to be reset, but Dr. Ross said you should be healed in a few days.”“Why

    Chapter 20 – MineDiesel’s POVI pulled her out of the water and dropped her before me using a water bubble. She looked up at me with the most unique amber colored eyes that ignited a fire within me. Her face held fear and she uttered “Ranger,” before she fainted.Did she think I was Ranger? How did she know Ranger? I wondered if she was from Dark Moon, and why she would be so far north.“Turn around!” I growled at the warriors. She was naked and I didn’t want anyone looking at her. I mind linked my Gamma, Zeke, to bring me some clothes.I walked over to her and held her to my chest to keep her warm and so I could inhale her scent, it was sweet lavender and vanilla. The most amazing thing I’ve ever smelled. Her skin was sending tingling sparks through mine and Duke immediately recognized her as our mate.I brushed her long wet hair away from her face, she was a beautiful little thing. Zeke’s wolf appeared behind me and had some clothes in his mouth. “Thanks Zeke.” I said as I took the

    Chapter 21 – Comfort“Lucy, no one is telling Ranger anything. You’re safe here. There’s still a lot more we need to talk about and sort out but it’s getting late. You need to eat something and get some rest; I know you’re exhausted. I’ll have Helga bring you some dinner from the kitchen.” Alpha Knox assured me as he stood to leave.“My bedroom is at the opposite end of this hall Lucy, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to come over.” Payton said and left.“I’ll leave you two to talk.” Alpha Knox closed the door behind him. “Sounds good to me,” Lia purred in my head. I did a mental eye roll.Diesel was still sitting on the bed, facing me. “I don’t know everything that happened at Dark Moon, but I know there’s more. I’m not going to force you to tell me everything, but I do want to know. When you’re ready, I’m here to listen.” Diesel told me.I nodded my head. I felt anxiety growing, if he finds out I was used and tainted he wouldn’t want me. I was too weak to protect a pup.H

    Chapter 22 – TitusI opened my eyes and thought I had dreamed the whole thing. But here I was, laying on my back in the big comfortable bed, wearing a bath robe with my hair wrapped in a towel. Diesel must have carried me out of the tub and put me to bed. I looked down at my waist and found Diesel. He was sleeping on his stomach with his arm draped around my midsection. He was topless and wearing dark gray sweatpants.I had a great view of his sexy back and shoulders. He had the same tribal tattoos covering his left chest, shoulder and arm as Ranger. Even though they had so many mom similarities, I couldn’t help but admire Diesel for their differences. Diesel even made the small scar in his eyebrow look sexy.“Are you done checking me out yet?” His gruff voice said as he squeezed his arm tighter around my waist, drawing a giggle from me.There was a knock on the door and Diesel groaned. “Come in Payton.”She came into the room and smiled wide. “Good morning Lucy. I brought you some cl

    Chapter 23 – LightsAfter the castle tour, I asked Diesel if I could spend some time alone in the library and he walked me back over to it. I stepped inside and admired the general splendor of this beautifully crafted Library. The room was round, with dark wooden shelfs that were lined with books three stories high. It had two large sliding wooden ladders and a beautiful fireplace. There were two large study tables in the middle, with computers and several deep armchairs around the room.I found the section on werewolf history and pulled several books down. The fireplace was already stacked with wood, so I lit a match and brought the fire to full. I sank into a cozy armchair by the fireplace flipping through books and reading page after page. I had just finished reading about the rare white wolf. I turned the page to read about a wolf even more rare than a white wolf—“The Golden Wolf.” Diesel’s voice came from over my shoulder. I had been so engrossed with the book that I didn’t sens

    Chapter 24 – TruthI was falling, falling into a cold dark pit. I crashed to the bottom of the hole laying in my own personal hell surrounded by darkness. My heart was racing, and I could taste the blood running from my nose. There was a stabbing pain in my stomach, and I reached for my baby. Cradling my little bump, I cried frantically. “Please be okay, please be okay.”“Lucy, Lucy, wake up.” Someone was shaking me.A scream escaped my lips and I sat up in bed, sweat was beading on my face and my heart was racing. I felt strong arms pulling me into the comfort of a warm chest. I was struggling to breath and couldn’t control my sobs. A familiar woodsy and musk scent hit my nose and started calming me.“I’ve got you, you’re safe.” Diesel cooed as he rubbed circles on my back for a few minutes until I was calm enough.“It was just a bad dream.”“No.” I sobbed. “It wasn’t. It really happened; it was real.”He looked down at me with pain in his eyes. “I want to know.”I wanted to tell him

He doesn't like perfectly good moussaka to go to waste.” I laughed.“Are you going to finish yours or should I take care of that for you too?” Niko asked me.“Touch my plate and you might lose a few fingers.” I growled and shoveled the rest of the food in my mouth.Dimitri chuckled and kissed me on the side of my head. “Don't mess with a pregnant woman's food Niko, you shouldknow better by now after three pups of your own.”Kyros was our oldest, Damien followed two years later, they both looked just like Dimitri.

    Dimitri's POVChapter 41 – Finally“Relax, I just want to meet your little Raven.” He said with a sick smile.“He knows about mate.” Dom growled at me.“We need to make sure and end him this time.” I told Dom.He turned his head to the bird’s nest. “What a suitable place for a raven, in the bird’s nest! Tell me son, is the bird’s nest bullet proof? I can't seem to remember if we made it bullet proof when we built it.”I mind linked Spiro, “tell me you had the chance to line the bird’s nest with another layer of steel?”“I did Alpha, but they won't be shooting regular bullets. We've never tested it against silver bullets!” Spiro linked back.“You have ten seconds to surrender the pack to its rightful Alpha before we turn the bird’s nest into Swiss cheese!” My fatherdemanded.I was about to unleash Dom and lunge at him when an earthshaking growl, with intense power, ripped across the land andshocked everyone. Greeks were taught from a young age to fear and respect the power of the Go

    Chapter 40 – Attack“Be a good little bird and stay in the nest. Don't come out for any reason, understand?” Dimitri told me.“Okay.”“Keep the door locked from the inside. Don't open it for anyone. If you set one foot out this door, before I come back for you, I'm going to spank your bottom red!” He crashed his lips into mine.His kiss was hungry, demanding, and filled with emotion. The promise of another spanking sent an exciting quiver down my back. I couldn’t wait until this was over to spend time tangled up with him.“Please be careful.” I whispered as we broke away.“I'll be back as soon as this is over.” He said and closed the door to the nest.I was standing inside of a closet sized metal box, that wasperched on top of the roof of the pack house and looked out over the pack lands. The fire pits were burning bright, if someonedidn't know any better, they would just assume the fire pits were there to light up the grounds for battle.“Let's test the reach of our element.” Rae s

    Chapter 39 – RaceThe sun was setting as we raced back in the Jeep to our territory.Dimitri was at the wheel and his eyes kept glancing in themirror at the occupants in the back seat. Odessa was seated in the back, between Alec and Hades. The tension in the car was thick.“What the hell happened Odessa? I thought Georgios was your mate?” Dimitri asked and a low growl came from Hades at the mention of Georgios.“It's kind of a long story.” She replied.“We've got time. No one is leaving this car for a few hours.” Dimitri said.Hades spoke first, “My mother was originally from Georgios’ pack, Zeus's Howlers. When my father claimed her as a chosen mate, she switched packs and joined Moon Warriors. He wasn't very good to us and took little interest in me. Growing up, Ispent a great deal of time visiting with my grandparents at theirpack. Georgios’ father had the pack then, he was good to me, let me come and stay whenever I wanted to. My grandparents were wonderful people and I enjoyed

Our daughter Raven LaRue, is his mate and the new Luna ofOlympus Blood Moon. We believe this will be a strong alliance for both packs and Zeus's Howlers will grow stronger andflourish.” My mother said.Applause and joyous howls erupted from the crowd. My mother stood in the middle of the field wearing nothing but my father’s shirt after she shifted back. Dimitri and I stood with my father as my mother addressed her new pack.“Beta Onassis, please step forward.” She called out. The crowd became silent and some exchanged nervous looks. “Some of you may have already heard, our oldest son and heir of CrescentMoon, Knox LaRue, is the mate of the Beta's daughter. This will now connect the packs in more ways than one. We are honoredto have Raquel Onassis, from Zeus's Howlers as the future Lunaof t

    Dimitri's POVChapter 36 – Claiming“He's going to be okay, won't he Dr. Vovos?” Niko asked.“I've known Kosta since he was a pup, your Uncle is one of the strongest wolves I've ever met.” Dr. Vovos assured us.The pack clinic was a mile down the road from the pack house. It was morning, we had to wait until Dr. Vovos had stabilized Kosta before we could see him.He was connected to machines and tubes, he looked pretty bad.“How long until he wakes up?” I asked, I really needed to talk to him. Find out who did this. He was badly beaten and shotwith a silver bullet. The silver should have killed him, it's a miracle that he even survived.“He's stable for now, but he's not out of the woods yet. It could be a few days or a few weeks. We don't even know the status of his wolf yet.” She said.Shit! We don't have that kind of time to sit around and wait. Ineeded to get going, Georgios’ pack was five hours northeast ofhere.

    Chapter 35 – Patient“If he's done something to my sister, I can't just lay around and do nothing. I need to find her. I’m going to kill him myself.”Dimitri growled trying to stand up.“She's our sister now too. You won't be helpful to anyone if you don't allow that to heal.” Knox replied.“Dimitri please.” I tried to calm my mate down. “She's his mate, he won't hurt her.”“Unless one of them rejects the other, then he will.” Dimitri said.“He wouldn't be that stupid, he knows she's your sister and doesn't want to make an enemy of you.” I told him.“Maybe, but Odessa might reject him first, she's obviously not happy about this.” He said.“My parents are with Georgios; they know something isn't right.We’ll find her, we just need you to heal. Dr. Vovos should be here to check your wound and change the bandage one moretime for the night. You can speak to her about your progress.” I said.“I need to get to Georgios, if Odessa is still in his territory, I can find her.” Dimitri said.“W

Lucy was insistent aboutreturning to Alpha Georgios pack right away.“I'll see if I can speak with Odessa alone first. I'll call Knox when I've spoken to her, so he can update you. We'll letGeorgios believe that Knox has returned to Crescent Moon with Rocky, and that we've remained in Greece because Alpha LaRue isn't convinced that Raven wants to be with you. That he'sconsidering taking your head for stealing our only daughter and forcing her to mate with you.” Lucy told me.“Mother!” Raven protested at the idea of forced mating.“We'll see if Georgios will lead us to Stefanos or if he letsanything slip. If we hit a dead end, I'll light Georgios up and send him straight to hell.” Lucy said.“I can position my warriors just outside his pack territory tolead an attack and help if things get st
