“What happens if they don’t bargain for these two?” A gruff, worried voice asks.
“They will, they take their alpha females very seriously from what I have gathered. Listening to the leaders of the packs, the alpha females are used as breeders to make higher level warriors.” A deeper, more assertive voice says.
“Shouldn’t we at least tie them up or restrain them somehow? I don’t think I can fight an alpha, even with the silver bracelets on.” The worried guy asks.
“Nah. They restrict these females so the only thing they are good for is breeding. They can’t even think

[Rewind Continued]We continued talking via dirt writing the rest of the day or night, whatever it was. I lost track of time and the thick material of the tent blocked out all extra light from outside. I thought I was aware of Leah’s abilities, but I sorely underestimated her. She has been on a journey of discovery all her own and picked up many skills along the way. I make mental notes of things I really want to know when we get out of this. Like she seems to radiate heat all of the time, but has this innate quality to control it. As wolves we generally run warmer, but she was able to warm my hands at will. I also noticed when she was holding my hands that my silver bracelets would feel like they were buzzing. It was a very strange feeling. She was also able to look and analyze our surroundings more quickly than I have ever seen a male alpha. Sh

[Present] Leah POV I snap my fingers in Renee’s face. “Hey, are you still with us?” “Umm, yeah, sorry. Just a déjà vu moment.” I looked her in the eyes, she’s been a little distant since we all came out of the dream or whatever that was with the moon goddess and the witch mother. “Are you sure you’re okay? We’ve had a lot of bombs dropped on us in the last few days. It’s completely reasonable if you’re not okay. Just let us know so we can help, alright.” She nods her head at me. “I just need to see Taylor, being this far away from him for this long is becoming painful and distracting.” I

Leah POV “What the hell?!” Damien was the first to recover and speak. “How did you do that? The moon hasn’t risen yet.” He looks wary, but also has not let go of JEssica’s hand either. “Selene told us the other night. I needed to know to get through losing Jason and prepare for this war. She knew that the two of you would be fine waiting until the day of the full moon, but must have thought now was a good time to reveal you to each other.” It’s the only explanation. Trent would never have let me go without his true mate by his side. Now he knows what he will miss out on if he tries to keep me bound to him. “Don’t you see? Now you need to let me go, and Jess needs to let Damien go. We need to be with the people who were designed to make us whole. I know you feel it, please don’t fight this anymore. I really do care about you, but we need to set th

Elyse POVLeah grabbed me and spun me so fast I had no idea what was going on. I was definitely unstable and was prepared to fall face first into the ground, but big warm hands found me instead and tingles ran from the place where the hands were holding me on my upper arms. I was caught in a tangle of limbs apologizing as I tried to right myself and step back from my savior, but I seemed to have lost some of my coordination with the contact.“Woah, stop fighting me, would ya?”I froze, no. way. I know this voice, I have been around this voice my whole life. I have always thought he was handsome, but he’s younger than me so it was never in more than a brotherly way. There are only so many guys that we hang out with because of the whole rank stigmas, but he’s not even 20

Leah POV “Our packs have lived in peace for as long as I can remember. We have never had an attack of this magnitude, we have also never had a friendly non-pack population,” He gives me a side look like the term is still foreign in his mouth. “We are all truly grateful for everyone who has stood up to fight and protect our packs regardless of member status. We want to celebrate all the lives lost, but I don’t think I am the right person to do that. As we mentioned before our packs have begun a new path and those of us in leadership have been too blind to see the change. Our successors have been smart enough to bring us into this change and were able to keep casualties to a minimum. I believe it is they who should lead our celebration of life.” He stops and turns to me and my friends. “This is your show now.” My eyes go wide and m

Leah I woke up more sore than I ever have before in my life, and I have been training since I was little with no pads or safety guards. I laid there with my eyes closed, just living in the feeling of being marked and mated. Giving focus to each and every sore muscle or bruised skin from Damien’s endless love bites. I inhale deeply and notice our scents have merged, it is the most heavenly smell that has ever hit my nose. I could curl up here with him forever, never moving, just enjoying his touch on my bare skin. “Whatever you’re thinking, if you keep thinking it, we will never leave this room.” Damien’s husky voice whispers in my ear. I jumped a little not realizing he was awake behind me. “Can you even move after last night? I’m almost afraid to try, just laying here I can f

Leah Elyse and I are in the war room checking all of the computers and cameras. It’s weird being here and being without Jason. He was a huge part of helping us build this and not having him here to help rebuild breaks my heart. I still want to find out who his mate was and what happened. Jason would never betray me like that without being forced or compelled. I need to talk to Bronwyn about how that might have worked or if she may know something. His mate will suffer at my hands if he harmed Jason knowingly. I shake my head pulling my thoughts out of the dark places they were going and refocused on what Elyse and I are doing. We decided after Jason locked us down we needed new protections on our security coding. I’m currently writing new failsafes into the surveillance codes so no one else can override my progra

Leah I forgot how much I really enjoy building things that help my pack. Having several days off running for our lives has brought that sense of purpose to the surface. I am working with a few of the gammas who helped me run the war room previously. The motion sensors are all up and running now and just need to be tested. “We will send out a patrol group in each territory to test the motion sensors in the ground and the ones that activate the video surveillance.” I say looking at my team. “Is there anything else they could test while they are out there?” “We should take some time to check blind spots. I feel like that is how we missed the activity before you and Renee were taken and probably how we missed the movements of Max and Victor and their witch.” Tristan says with a sneer.

83LeahThe warmth I have been feeling was so comfortable at first, but now it is getting suffocating. I’m not dead, I know that much, but I don’t know where I am or how long I have been here. I was very confused when I first woke up. This place has nothing, everything is white and cozy. If I focus on anything I can get it to focus and become tangible, but it takes a lot of concentration and makes my brain hurt. There is no day or night, my body just sleeps when it wants to and is awake when it wants too. It was very relaxing at first, with no thoughts running through my head to distract me or need to be anywhere, but as my mind began to put together the reasons I was here, the more anxious I became. I need to get back to my pack, my mate and my family. I don’t feel trapped or caged, but I have no idea how to leave either. “Relax child, you are safe and so is everyone you love. You need to rest and so does your wolf. You both accomplished great things and you need to heal. You have i

Damien The amount of wolves that dropped everything that they were doing was astounding. I think the whole pack came out to protect their Alpha Lunas. Hundreds of shifters surround us, men, women and children of all ages. My heart swelled with pride at the loyalty we were being shown right now. The rogues around us didn’t know what to do with the sudden onslaught of new fresh fighters. Still kneeling next to Leah, my sister and Danielle, I could see the rogue wolves on their front line shifting anxiously, waiting for a command. “You will not get any further instructions. Your leader is dead!” Taylor shouted at the rogues. You could tell they were nervous and had no clue what they were doing. They all still had a faint red glow in their eyes. It was faded, but still present. There must have been some level of control still over them. “You don’t have to fight us anymore, you are no longer under the control of the Darkness.” Demitri stands up next to Elyse, still maintaining

Leah “We need Selene and Niobe for this. I don’t know how to control the magic enough to fight this thing.” I look at Ellinore, pleading with my eyes for her to understand I have no idea what I am doing. She crawls over to me and wraps me in a hug, then I feel another weight on top of hers and I can smell Danielle’s scent wafting around us calming us both down. “Hey, I don’t mean to break up the love fest, but we have a problem here.” Demitri shouts over his shoulder while still keeping a grip on Elyse. We all look over and Max’s form is splitting again into the elemental monsters. Six hideous creatures of our nightmares are oozing off of Max’s form. His form gets darker and more tar-like and slow as he divides into the monsters. “We can’t fight them again, we all barely got through the last fight.” Jess cries, tears running down her face as she leans her back more into Trent’s embrace. I can feel her panic through the pack bond. “We can. Look at them, they are half the size

Leah I am so confused…and tired. My whole mind is just tired, like something is stealing my energy. “Babe, you need to stand up.” Damien says to me. Damien, my mate, the love of my life since I was five. The person who has always made me feel strong and safe. “How was Max able to block you from my memory? It didn’t last long, but he was able to separate us for a bit and used that weakness to trap us. We can’t let him do that to anyone else.” I am holding his hand, refusing to break contact again. I realize he must feel the same as he laces our fingers together and rubs his thumb in circles on the back of my hand. I still feel like I am being drained of energy. I wonder if it has to do with this bubble thing we are trapped in. I reach my other hand out to try and touch the shimmering membrane and I jump back as it shocks me. “What? What happened?” Damien looks worried and surprised. “We need to figure out what is making me feel so drained and we have to figure out how to bre

Danielle Where could they have gone? I know Leah was standing behind me keeping an eye on Max’s movements while we handled our elemental monsters, which I am still not convinced are completely gone. As much as they sucked to battle, it was too easy. “When did you see her last?” I ask Ellinore, not having to specify who I am talking about. “Not sure, the blob split and all hell broke loose. She was behind us as the monster started to attack. I didn’t see which way Max went though, did you?” “No. I just hope Damien is with her and they aren’t fighting alone.” My heart hurts at the thought. I couldn’t have taken out the robo monster without Ellinore. The Goddesses were right, our mates strengthened our powers. “I have a feeling Max knows that we strengthen each other and wanted to keep us separate to get to Leah. She’s our tether, the thing that linked us all in the beginning and the person we all gravitate to now. If he breaks her, we are in serious trouble.” The rest of

Jess Oh my goddess there is blood and people everywhere. I was so not made for this kind of thing. This foul smelling swamp demon is after me and I have no idea how to really fight. Trent is working so hard to keep me protected and I just feel like a burden and distraction that keeps getting in the way. “Jess, look out!” I hear as another wave of water is thrown my way. I duck and roll, much more agile than I expected. I run over to Trent who is lying on the ground soaked to the bone and the slimy residue seems to be affecting him, slowing him down. “Help me!” I cry out not sure if anyone can actually hear me. There is so much fighting all around me, the sound almost deafening. “Silence, child, you are more than capable of handling this. You were made to handle all of this. Do not let your abysmal upbringing make you underestimate your worth. You represent the wood element. Strong and steadfast, a sturdy beacon of home for your pack. Remember what your element does, your

Leah “What?” I question as I can feel the light of life go out in my head and my heart. “What’s wrong?” “Leah, babe, just get up and come with me, there’s nothing we can do right now.” Damien is grabbing at my arms to get me out from under the dead wolf, and trying to usher me away. “Wait, why do we have to go, we have to try and help…” “We can’t help him now, we need to go.” Damien cut me off. “I know you, you’ll dwell on it. We have to keep our eyes on Max, he’s starting to move.” Damien is tugging on my arms now. I can’t help it, I feel compelled to stay with this wolf, who literally died on top of me. I wrenched my hand out of his. “No, I need to see who it is.” I turned back to the wolf and my whole world halted. “No.” It was a whisper as my breathing became shallow and I struggled to remain upright. Damien caught me around the waist and eased me to the ground. This was the first person since Jason that I have seen killed because of me, and this was the worst part ab

Leah As the barrier breaks a gust of wind rushes through the grounds whipping my hair around and almost knocking me down. I could feel the power radiating in the breeze and absorbing into my skin, reenergizing my whole body. “Whoa! Did you feel that?” Nyx asks me. “Yeah, that was amazing.” “Our children, listen closely.” A loud chorus of voices booms through my skull, vibrating every bone in my body. I grab my head and wince in pain. I look around and realize that I am not the only one. All of us, even the guys are grabbing our heads. “Trust the magic and let us in. Your pack will not survive without our help.” “Alphas, we are here.” Someone shouts from behind me. “The packhouse has our protection.” a roar of approval rises after the statement. “Let your members serve their purpose, just as you all will serve yours.” I gasp a breath in and try to open my mind to what is happening to me. I feel like I am burning up inside, but I can feel my strength grow. I look around a

Leah “INCOMING!!!” Is all that I hear before a flaming fireball with legs comes barreling through the forest knocking down rogues left and right. “Grab these f**kers and lets get a move on, I don’t know how long this will last.” Ellinore’s somewhat crazy laugh whoops through the mindlink. Elyse and Renee stay together, Jessica closely watching them while the rest of us toss the possessed rogues into the trench. “We need to get to the other fights too, Elyse try to do the ground opening thing from here, Niobe said to focus on a specific point and have Leah boost you. Leah, can you pinpoint the fighting and direct her? I’m going to go knock these tools around a bit more. Have that hole open for me when I get there.” She cackles again before blasting off towards another part of the territory.. “You need to explain how you know all of this.” Danielle huffs through the link. “Later, babe, I’m on fire right now!” “You are an idiot” Danielle sighs, “You’re my idiot, but still an id
