Katrina’s Point of View

‘Kat!’ He anxiously came over to try to hold my hand, but I avoided him by pouring myself a cup of coffee, moving away from him, and leaving him standing there all by himself.

He paused for a moment not to insist, and then said, “Kat, my mother has had a stroke! I can’t get Doctor Andrea to come and treat her! And I can’t afford that expensive medicine she needs! Those bastards just want to make things difficult for me. I don’t know what to do.” He complained while I sipped on the coffee, not bothering to give him some.

‘Oh, he has guts!’ Sage surfaced ‘Coming here and trying to get you to help his mother?’ She scoffs, rolling her eyes.

‘He only wants what you can give him such a greedy man,’ she retorted

It was now that I was seeing that Xavier was more brawn than brain. Such a sad sight to see.

Glad I dodged a bullet when he married Bianca. They deserve each other,

I knew they wouldn’t be able to afford him after all the expensive treatments were paid for

    Katrina's Point of viewI am free in the wild; I have been trapped in Luna’s life for so long that I almost forgot who I am.I forgot how it felt to feel the air blow through my hair, or the adrenaline rush when I’m fighting for my life.Five days later, I drove to the front line of the southern battlefield and the crescent pack.I pulled over in front of the first gate a few warning shots fired, making me stop the car as I heard grunts and sounds of boots My eyes roamed around, wondering what I was thinking of coming here in the middle of the night. I’m sure they must think I’m some intruder.I wanted to step out, but what stopped me were a dozen well-trained wolves, their fierce eyes shining even in the dark of a moonless night.Low growls and howls fill my ears as I sigh heavily. The only light shining is that of my car and the spotlights.Some pointed their guns at me, while some of them were still in their wolf form. Lights flashed at me as I sighed heavily, covering my eyes.The

    Lucius’s point of viewI looked at the stunning she-wolf in front of me. The darkness and her fatigue could not hide her astonishing beauty. She had not changed in the slightest.Still brave and stubborn. But I was curious what would have made her come all the way here.“I was curious to know what brought her all the way here.My mind flashed back to two years ago.The Pack House of Snow Pack.Luna Lilibet, Katrina’s mother, looked at me in alarm. The lady looked very sickly and pale, and after going through the funeral of her mate and son, she looked even more fragile.Here I was, standing before a woman I have only heard about but never seen before.I lowered my head before her as she gestured for me to sit down on the chair.“To what do I owe this visit?” She asked, her voice weak and soft-spoken. I sit on the edge of the couch, taking out something from my bag.I will push over a green gemstone necklace and a dagger. She raised a brow as if asking me what I was doing. “I plan ongo

    Katrina’s point of viewHe led the way through the crowd as everyone stared at me. My eyes roamed around, spotting the pit fire in the middle of the camp with the men and women around it.He opened the tent for me to walk in and I lowered my head slightly.I walked into his command tent and was immediately choked by the powerful smell of blood. I tried to hold it in as he led the way.“Damn, this stinks’ Sage remarked.“Well, this is war. People are injured every minute so nothing surprises me’ “It stinks.’ She complains.“This is where you and I should be. You need to toughen up,’ I retorted, my eyes searching and on guard.“No, thank you. Give him his report and get me out of here’ The tent was sparsely decorated and furnished, with bloody bandages and scattered pills everywhere. There was an enormous map on the table. This is the battlefield.It looked very deserted, like a mobile bed on the move, without any trace of home. My eye roamed all over the room but he just stood ther

    Katrina’s point of view“You are not the only one in business with Silverfox.”“When I was still a child, I used to go to the Silverfox Pack, where I heard about a very naughty but also very talented little girl called Kat. Everyone at Silverfox spoke highly of her, and she was the one doing all the tricks. Was that you?”I wanted to cry the moment I heard it.“He heard about us?’ Sage asked, raising one of her thick browsSince the tragedy, I was no longer the girl who could do whatever she wanted thanks to the support of her family.“I am not sure. Kat is a very common name, and I'm sure Silverfox has many little girls named Kat.” I retorted,He holds my gaze, but I am the first to look away. My knees are giving in and my eyes are heavy.After five days of non-stop travelling, I was a little tired and felt my legs go weak.I was about to fall to the side, but Lucius caught me before I hit the ground. That was fast. My eyes widened as I looked into his eyes.My heart races when I’m

    Cassian’s point of viewTwo months later, Alpha King’s Pack HouseLooking up from my work, something crosses my mind that it’s been quiet the last few months from Katrina after she was taken back to her pack, Snow.I asked Ryan my beta, “Has Luna Katrina made any recent moves?”Beta stifled a smirk and teased me. “If you want to know, you can ask her yourself. Last time I checked, your legs are free.”I scoffed, shaking my head. She's never serious about anything. Of course, I want to know how she is doing, but I just can’t show up on her doorstep to check how she is.“I don’t want to know if she’s fine. Just want to know if she’s still going about making accusations,” I retorted,Lies. Those were lies.I wanted to know how she was doing. I needed to know that she was safe.“Well, no report has come from the men there. It seems everything is normal” he doesn’t look up from his book, which he seems to be buried in these days.Maybe I was too harsh on her, but she shouldn’t have lied li

    Xavier’s Point of ViewI’m going to war again. It’s something I thought we would stay away from in our first year of marriage.Katrina had to offer herself to go to Crescent Pack.We still tremble at the pressure of Alpha King’s rage. The man has a way of instilling fear into you that you just can’t help but submit. His aura is just too powerful. Bianca was still immersed in the excitement. Her eyes are full of anticipation for war. I know she has always been born for war, and she is only at her best on the battlefield.I knew from the first moment I saw her on the battlefield that I would never find another she-wolf like her.She was the one for me.She hasn’t stopped taking tactics and what we need since we stepped out of that office. She has everything planned out.This is what I love about her. Once she is going to battle.

Handing each other some notes.I’m sure it was a bet they had made about my response, which was always my answer after a long night. I looked at the young boy in front of me, who had just come of age, and took it. I open it, gulping down everything in one go.I concealed my identity and joined the squad I’m in now. To them, I’m no longer Luna or Katrina, just Kat.It wasn’t easy at first trying to take orders from someone, but I’m slow

    Cassian’s point of viewRyan, my Beta, said excitedly, “Kat is truly the daughter of Alpha Snow! Katrina even burned the supplies of the Crescent Pack with a small team!”I finally smiled as I read the report sent to me by Lucius. A smile tugs on my lips just thinking of what she has managed to do in the little time she has been there.I was furious when I found out a few days ago that she had slipped past the security that Ryan had sent over. Makes me wonder how she could slip past them.“Have Lucius informed her? From now on, she is an official warrior in the army, a first-class captain. Once she helps Lucius banish the Crescent Pack from the south, she will be promoted to full Pack warrior.” I instructed Ryan,I remember that she was always different from the girls I met. From Jamie’s personality, he was calm and careful in everything he did. Ever caused any problems for anyone but Katrina? She has always been trouble.I remember the first time I saw her.

    Katrina’s point of view“What are we, Katrina?” he asks me as I swallow hard, staring into his eyes. I don’t have an answer for him.Sage screams for me to say something, but it’s like I just lost my ability to speak. What do I say to a man asking me, What are we?We have had sex, gone on a date, and now I am asking him to stay in my room“I don’t know Lucius.” I try to move away from him because if I stay another second in his arms, my mouth will be all over his.For the last few weeks, all I have done is work hard to stay away from him. Trying to stay away from him, but it’s a mission I can confidently say I have failed. I keep finding myself wanting to see him.He’s the first person I look for in a room. The man I want to wake up to every morning, a text or missed call. Not having to mask his scent every time.I bit my lower lip, thinking of what to say as I lowered my eyes to his chest.

    Katrina’s point of view“No,” Cassian says an hour later after I suggested the thing.“It’s the only way. Many of them expect you to be back in the capital. But we can use the opportunity. We can bring through inside and his ten men without anyone noticing,” I tried to explain to him.“Was this your idea?” he turns to Lucius, who chuckles, shaking his head. “I only told her to move the meeting here. She came up with the secret meeting,” He shrugs, folding his arms.“So, it was your idea?” Cassian questions Lucius, who tilts his head.“The secret meeting is my idea. Lucius had nothing to do with it. The place is a fortified building,” I insisted, and he laughed.“Six months with him and already you are breaking laws. Do you know what you are suggesting?”“I have been breaking rules for longer than you realize, but that’s not the point. Someone knew Lucius didn’t travel with us. The dark ones knew everything about the trip. It’s not a coincidence that they attacked the decoy first,” I r

    Lucius’s point of view“Girlfriend?” she asks, and I pull her in a hug, letting out a breath I didn’t even realize I was holding.“I was scared, Kat. I was so scared that something happened to you, and it’s the only thing, ” I whisper to her, pulling her closer to me, hugging her tightly.“I didn’t do anything with Cassian. I swear, Lucius,” she whispers to me, her breath shaky as I pull away from her.“I know Kitten. I know you didn’t” I whisper to her, cupping her face as she looks at me searching my face if I was lying.“What happened? Why are you on this bed instead of him?” I ask her and she chuckles.“You said guard him with your life. I did that,” she says, and I lower my head. I shouldn’t have asked her to. That was stupid on my side.“Plus, I know you hate the idea of taking over from him.”I can’t help but laugh as she cups my face. “How did you know about Alpha Wayne?” she asks me as I get on the bed.“Want to freshen up first?”“No. I would like to know how you found out.”

    Lucius’s Point of View‘I should have gone with them.’ I growled all the way here, thinking of what could have happened to Katrina right now.‘It wasn’t your fault if anyone is to blame. It’s the alpha king,’ Zane encouraged me. But it doesn’t matter.I should have protested and insisted on going with them. I felt something was wrong about all this, but I ignored it.I followed an order, and now it will cost me, Katrina. I hit the gas pedal, and when I saw the massacre on the road, I couldn’t help but stop to check on the dead bodies.Whitecoat soldiers and a few of our men were dead, but no sign of Katrina.Still, I wasn’t satisfied. I needed to see her, to know she was fine. I got in the car and drove away, heading to Snowpack. As I drove through the gate, security blocked the road.“Name and identification,” the man said to me, walking towards the car, and five guards stood on the wall, their guns pointed at me.“Lucius Grimmwolf,” I turned to the man. He walked closer to the door

    Cassian’s point of viewAs we arrive in the snowpack, memories of this place start flooding my mind. “Halt!” The guard shouts as I wait for Joshua.“I need to see Beta Tyler.”“Name?” the man asks as I roll down the window. “Alpha King Cassian Whitehorn, now get out of the fucking way!” I growl, and the man stills as he checks through the window.“Luna?” his eyes fall on Katrina, and I pull her closer to my chest.“It’s the Luna. Open the gates!” He shouts and I see them rushing to open the gates.,“Eight cars are following us behind. Let them through,” I shout, and he bows his head, his head almost hitting the ground. The streets look deserted, but every hundred meters, there’s a patrol. We drive into the compound, and I can see the beta waiting for us by the staircase.“How bad is it?” he asks as soon as Joshua gets out of the car.“Dark one claws into her ribs,” I explain, and he bows before me, as the rest of them do. “Get the Luna!” He orders and then takes her out of the car bef

    Cassian’s point of viewThe wolf lurked behind the little gray wolf. From the scent, I could remember him being Katrina’s friend.If he dies, she will be devastated. I grab a mask, putting it on, making my way out of the car, and jumping at the wolf.If I shift, I will be an easier target. I kill the wolf and throw it to the ground, and the kid lifts his gaze to me.“Watch every back kid,” I growl, kicking the wolf who tries to come after me, and he falls to the ground.I grab the knife and slit his throat. I glanced back at the car, and Katrina was fighting through the crowd.‘I need to go back for her,’ I link to my wolf.I run through the ground, making my way to her, my chest pounding hard, but the man who was watching starts making his way towards her. She can’t see him as she fights the two wolves.The Wolf lunges at her, sending her flying, and she shifts back into her human form as he lands on the ground.“Katrina!” I growl, shifting into my wolf as I grab the man’s neck, brea

    Katrina’s point of view“Just so I am clear. Whatever happens in this car stays in this car. I hear a word of it, and I will be the one slitting your throat,” I growl, before turning to Cassian.“Look at me,” I whisper to him, and he shakes his head, sweat streaming down his forehead.“Cassian, look at me. I am here” I whisper to him, and he slowly opens his eyes, tears in his eyes.“Breath with me”The car starts moving, and he nods his head, repeating after me. “Hold my hand if it gets uncomfortable,” I say to him, and he nods his head before we sit back.I can see Joshua and Beck swapping looks and I know I must explain it to them, but there are only so many people I can trust in the capital, and these two are about forty per cent of those people.“Lucius has all the details for the security. You didn’t have to ask him to stay back.” I start turning to look at Cassian.“His next in line to the throne. If he comes and we end up dying, it would be the end of our bloodline. I can’t ri

    Katrina’s point of view“You can’t! He only came because he thought something happened to me” I say to Cassian, trying to walk towards him and he tilts his head, regarding me.“Then he should use more of his head than his emotions,” he retortsI chuckle, shaking my head, “And me? Considering the consequences of coming into your bedroom, is marriage?” I ask.“Wait. I can’t marry a royal, so what? A concubine? A mistress? Or will I be demoted?” I ask him, and he raises his brow.“That’s different”“It’s not. You know the consequences of calling me into your room, and yet you did.” I countered, and he inhaled sharply, looking at me.“I can change the law for you,” he says, and I scoff, shaking my head. I see why Lucius hates him; the man is a two-faced bastard.“For you, I would bring the war to this doorstep and not give a dime,” he saysMy jaw drops as I tilt my head. He can’t possibly be—‘In love with you? Yes, he is’ Sage remarks.“Let’s go. I will handle the disrespect that Lucius

    Katrina’s point of view“Cassian! What’s wrong?” I rushed to Cassian, placing a hand on his forehead. He grabs my hand and pulls me into a hug before I can even process everything.I freeze, not sure what to do. “What’s wrong with him?” I ask, panicking as I place a hand on his back.It’s something I shouldn’t do, but I can’t help but do it.“Please, just stay like this with me,” he whispers to me, and I stare at Beta Ryan. “Panic attack,” he mouths to me as I swallow hard, gently stroking his back.“It’s okay. I am not going anywhere” I assure him, while stroking his back., he buries his head in my neck.My heart races thinking of Lucius. What would he say if he saw me cuddling his cousin right now?‘Then let go of him.’ Sage echoes, but I can’t leave someone who needs me alone.“Thank you,” he says to me once his calm, trying to get up to his feet. “what’s going on, Cassian?
