It had been two days of tracking and testing. We have almost all of the cameras up and Elyse, Ellinore and I snuck off to install Bertha along the mountain border of Silver Mist and Blue Moon. What I didn’t tell Ellinore is that Elyse and I also installed Bertha along the Crescent moon border too.
We need to test it on the guys to make sure that we can stun any of our enemies, not kill them. I want to be able to question everyone and give them a chance to give us information and to see how many of them are under Alpha command or a compelling spell.
“Can you guys run a full patrol route today? We have a couple things we want to check after making tweaks to the motion sensors.” I ask Damien as we are both avoiding getting out o

55 I’m sitting with Damien, Elyse, Demitri, Ellinore, Danielle, Jessica, Trent, Renee and Taylor eating dinner. We have worked out meal times so we filter in every half hour or so. We let the families with young kids and the omegas that will shift out for later meal times go first. We don’t base it on rank. As an alpha group we decided that was the best. We needed to know our people and can’t do that if we don’t intermingle. “What do you think Max is planning? Why would he clear out his packhouse? And the Blood Moon packhouse.” Jessica asks, looking at Trent and Taylor. “I don’t know. He’s had us blocked since we came to get Leah and never returned.” Taylor supplied with a dark look in his eyes.

Leah I wake up in Damien’s arms a little confused. I was so used to being in my dorm room I had forgotten that we moved into the packhouse a week ago. We have gotten so many things done in the last week and the pack members seem to be happy with the changes we are making and the things we are choosing to keep the same for now. We have been doing pack meetings every couple of days to check in with all of the work that is being done. Silver Mist, Blazing River, Dark Forest, Crescent Moon, Night Fang, Black Lake and Rising Sun territories have all been updated and are being actively monitored and patrolled. We are monitoring Blood Moon, Red Claw and Blue Moon territories, just not the same way. After our first discovery of the packhouses being cleared out at Red Claw and Blood Moon our patrol

Leah The glow disappeared as I let go of Danielle’s shoulder, but the buzz continued as we stood in the circle. “Don’t move” I mindlinked to all of them. “I can still feel our connection.” Out loud I asked Bronwyn, “What can we do with this connection? I can actually feel myself getting stronger, more energized, the longer we are like this. Do we need to be like this or just in proximity? Can we mindlink all of the time now, or only when we are connected?” “Relax and breathe, you only made the connection when you all were calm and focused on what you were doing together. As far as a mindlink, I have no idea. I have never met more than one other hybrid in my life. So whether that is a magic thing or a wolf thing or both is a question for the moon goddess. Although

Leah “Well, that was a turn of events.” Bronwyn said from her prone position on the ground. I rushed over to help her up. “What do you mean?” Renee questioned “If my guess is correct, you all just linked your pack as one. Can you hear the voices? Feel the presence of each member?” She asked dusting herself off. “Yes! This is amazing” Elyse is shouting. “What is that smell?” Taylor asks. “I don’t remember a scent like that.” “I wonder if our senses are heightened since we are linked together now.” Danielle suggests. “That is a possibility.” Bronwyn says under her breath, but doesn’t sound convince

Leah We all rush towards the packhouse making a natural protective ring around Taylor and Renee. Whether she likes it or not, we are all going to be more protective of her now that we know. As we run up to the backside of the packhouse we can hear commotion coming from the training grounds near the Elite building. “Jess, Danielle, Elyse take Renee and go into the packhouse. Please don’t argue, baby we need to check this out and I won’t be able to focus right now with you there. I promise to try, but not today.” Taylor looks right at Renee trying to placate her even though she just told him she won’t be caged. “Danielle, please..” Danielle understood his pain and wrapped her arms around Renee and the four of them walked her towards the rear entrance

It took three days to get rid of this burning feeling in my body.“I can barely walk straight.” I complain to Damien as I walk to the bathroom to shower.“That just means I did my job right.” He laughs behind me. “My only worry with all of that action, you may be decommissioned for the next six months. I don’t want you to be angry with me, but I don’t think I am going to be any better than Taylor is with Renee. I can barely stand the thought of you fighting in the upcoming ba

We are all ready for action, I feel like we are all wound up tight waiting for so long for some kind of attack from Max and his army. I’m actually exhausted from all the preparations we have been doing, but the mental and emotional exhaustion is worse. I now have a mate and I know I wont be able to live if something happens to her and I’m fairly certain she is number one on Max’s list of people to eliminate. “No, my young alpha,

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.

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
