"You said he was your only friend, and you don’t know anything about him? Who was he? A vampire? A werewolf? Or what?" Ashford asked.

Luna tried to think that Assy had been her best friend, but she knew nothing about him. Only the fact that he only comes at night made her feel like a jerk. How was she going to find him when she didn’t even know his identity? She only knew about his dislikes and likes.

"I know his likes and dislikes, and that is enough for me." Luna said.

"You see why I said he was imaginary?" Bartram asked Ashford.

Luna was expecting him to side with her father, and she tried to hide the inner anger within her. If he could side with her father, she was going to snap at him and storm off. Adrian had not believed her when she said she was pushed from the roof by Alexa, and now he won’t believe her?

Ashford shook his head. No, Beta, Assy was real. I believe her."

Luna raised her head to look at him, and the words brushed over her heart. Her anger was gone, replaced

    Adrian sat on a chair in his room, writing down some stuff on paper. Trevor had told him how his grandfather was killed. Adrian did not let Phoebe sleep alone; she slept in his room, and he watched over her. Whoever that person was, it was sure that they had something against the alphas too. Or was he only after the girl and wanted the search team to be quick with it? Adrian dropped the sheet as soon as he was done writing the names of people who were clearly suspects. His father had been told about the thing going on and had told him not to worry too much. The person was going to be caught; they could not hide behind doors forever. If he lets Phoebe out and acts like he has gotten the man's threat and does not care about it, is the man going to come after Phoebe faster now? He groaned and tossed the sheets, which floated and shattered around the messy floor. Piles and liters of paper were scattered on the ground. Even though he had let Phoebe sleep in his room, she woke up and went

    Ashford closed the door as soon as Adrian and Phoebe stepped inside. He held a box in his hand—the same box Phoebe had dropped earlier. Adrian helped Phoebe to a chair and tried to comfort her; she was breathing heavily, and tears threatened to fall. Her hands were trembling more than he had expected. His sister was terrified. Luna bent over Phoebe and held her hand. "Don’t worry, Phoebe. Nothing will happen to you." Phoebe slowly nodded in approval of what Luna had said, then she glanced around. "I lost the gift I brought for you; I can’t believe I lost it after spending hours on it. I'm so sorry, Luna." Ashford, who was standing nearby, handed the box to her. Phoebe flashed him a smile. Although she was trying to hide her fear behind that smile, he could see it cracking. She was just trying to appear strong. Ashford's brows furrowed; that man had done a lot lately. "How did he know you both were coming here?" Luna asked. "I don’t know," Adrian answered almost immediately. "We d

    She stared at him innocently, as if nothing had happened. She wondered what he wanted to say to her. Was he going to scold her for still speaking with Ashford, whom he believed to be her ex-lover? She also wondered about his reaction when he discovered that she was mated to both of them. Ashford hadn't reacted much and had allowed her to do as she pleased, but he had made it clear that she couldn't reject him. Even though she had tried, he was determined not to let her go. She had never liked Adrian from the start because of the way her father had spoken about him, always saying good things about him and wishing he was her mate—which, as it turned out, he was. "Where is he from?" Adrian asked. "Who?" Luna replied. "Ashford," he answered. She stared at him blankly, with no specific place in mind. She didn't even know of any other werewolf packs apart from Cruster Toon and Lunar Crest. What could she tell him? She was at a loss for words as she looked at him. His eyebrows rose as

    When Luna walked into the kitchen, all eyes turned to her. Phoebe was putting on an apron and helping Neon hold something. Phoebe was grinning from ear to ear as she spoke nonstop to him. Her father, on the other hand, was solely focused on what he was cooking. He smiled at her as she walked in, raised his hand, and pointed to her chair. "Can’t I help with something for once?" "No." Her father answered. "You have to sit and watch." Luna's lips pouted in frustration as she walked up to her seat and sat on it. Bartram flashed her a smile, ignoring the fact that she might scowl at him. She wanted to speak, but her focus shifted to Phoebe as she heard her speak to Neon. "Where are you from?" She asked. He smiled at her. "I am not really ready to share that yet; let’s keep on cooking, okay?" "Why?" "Why what?" "I thought you were Luna’s ex-lover, bro. It is not bad telling me where you are from." Phoebe persisted. "I am; Ashford is really strict about me telling anyone about it and

    “Why are you on her bed?” Adrian repeated for the fifteenth time. “I can’t hear you.” Ashford said. “And who are you to tell me where to stay? This room belongs to me too, do you understand me?” Adrian frown grew wide. “You can’t stay on her bed and expect me not to complain about it, there are a lot of rooms for you to stay but you chose this one.” “That is because I should be getting married to her if only you didn’t show up. Stupid mate bond.” He laid back on the bed and picked up the book. He had dropped the book when Adrian showed up but seeing there was nothing for Adrian to say. He had to continue his book. “You have to get up,” Adrian said. Ashford looked at him from the corner of his eyes. “I don’t think so. I came here first, you should leave and i also have to keep on reading this book.” Adrian took in a deep breath, trying to stay calm. “What pack are you from? Heard you were the alpha.” Ashford eyes widened. “Luna told you that and you came to ask me?” “Yes, she c

    Ashford flashed a smile at the man in front of him. Adrian was still pinning him down to the ground; his eyes were getting dark, and every word he spoke came out as a growl. Ashford could not wait to tease him and see him shift in front of him. Oh, the big black wolf is getting angry already." Ashford teased. Adrian growled again, this time louder than it had been. Luna was surprised to hear that growl; he had been hearing that sound by her window for the previous night, even before the mate bond. "Say one more word and you are going to be kicked out; I will make sure it happens." Adrian said. Ashford turned over, his hand tightened around Adrian's hands that were wrapped around his neck, and he removed them in one pull. "Is it worth it?" Ashford asked. "Fighting your mate's ex?" "It's worth it; the fact that you want to get close to her is so annoying." Adrian yelled. Ashford rolled around and pushed Adrian off him. "Fighting me won't let you have her; you have to grow up." "I

    "Did I say something wrong?" She asked when they were quiet. Ashford shook his head. "No kitten; you just told him what pack I am from." Adrian's eyes widened in fury. "You come from the Lust Mind Pack and have the right to stand in this house." Luna gulped down nothing in particular. Was there anything wrong with the pack's mind? She hoped she had not ruined her chances by saying Ashford was from that pack. What pack was that, anyway? Were they enemies of Lunar Crest? Her thoughts kept going wide until she could not bear the silence anymore. "What is wrong if he is from the Lust Mind Pack?" Luna asked. Adrian glanced at Luna. "You don't know? You don't know anything about the pack; are you even a werewolf?" Ashford's eyes darkened. "That is it! You can talk to me anyhow, but not to her. If she isn't a werewolf, why is she here, and why is she mated to a jerk like you?" "You are the one who is a jerk; someone from that kind of pack deserves not to be here. What happened to you?

    When all of them gathered at the dining room for breakfast. Phoebe and Neon were still in a heated argument; Luna, on the other hand, was trying her very best not to take any meat since she was already used to it. Meats were the common thing on the table, and Bartram had offered Ashford and Neon a wine that was secretly blood. He offered Adrian another wine, which he gladly accepted because he had one while Ashford had to share one. "Can you tell this talkative cat to keep quiet for once? Neon asked Luna. "I am sick of screaming and arguing; why can’t she just agree that I am right?" Luna glanced at Phoebe, who had opened her lips and was ready for another argument. "It is alright, Phoebe; you don’t need to argue anymore. Let us eat in peace." Luna said. Bartram sighed. "They almost fought; I should admit I wanted to see who would win." All four heads turned to him, and two heads glared at him. Bartram raised his hand in defense of Phoebe and Luna, who were glaring at him at the s

    Alpha Dean's stern voice echoed through the clearing, his words laced with authority. "Your matebrought at threat to our pack, even though she fixed everything. She can't change the fact that she is still a danger to this pack. Hybrids are forbidden, and I am already doing her a favor by sparing her the dungeon," he declared.Ashford instinctively pulled Luna closer, shielding her with his protective embrace. "No one is taking her to the dungeon. If you all don't want her, I can take her," he asserted, his voice firm with conviction."Fine," Alpha Dean conceded, his tone relenting slightly. "As long as she is far away from this pack, I have no problem with it."Luna's eyes welled with tears, her vision blurring as Alpha Dean's harsh words pierced her heart. The possibility of leaving her father and venturing into the unknown was daunting."Dean, let's think this through. You can't send her to the dungeon, and you also can't cast her away," Bartram pleaded, his voice trembling with desp

    Monsell peered at her. "Do we have a deal?""Luna glanced at the staff and then looked at Adrian, who was shaking his head and asking her not to hand the staff over to him. Luna stared at Monsell; if she refused to give him the staff, he was going to keep on using Ashford's body.Giving him the staff was going to be a waste; Ashford won't want her handing the staff to him."We have no deal; I am not giving you the staff, but you are letting go of him."Monsell's lips curled up into a sinister smile. ",Already making the wrong decision?"Luna's brows furrowed at him, and she gripped tightly to the staff until her knuckles turned white."I have always made the right decision; you are going to let go of him."Luna lunged at Monsell, attacking him with a kick. He dove away with a wide grin on his face. Luna realized that if she fought Monsell, she was only hurting Ashford's body.She paused, looking at Monsell as he stood next to her. An idea popped into her head."You want the staff, don'

    Ashford led the way towards the pack; Luna was by his side while Bartram and Ashford were walking behind them. Luna clutched tightly to her staff, even though they were heading to the pack to stop Monsell. Luna felt uneasy; the man was out there using her powers, and he even shifted his shape to look like her.She promised herself to get rid of him as soon as possible. Soon they were standing in between the borders. The border between Cruster Toon and Lunar Crest There were several dead bodies laying on the floor. Guilt gnawed at Luna's conscience as she stared at the lifeless bodies. The weight of responsibility hung heavy on her shoulders, her heart burdened by the knowledge that their deaths were a consequence of her existence. If she hadn't been born or if she had been killed alongside her mother, Everyone would be safe; no one would be dead.The snarling of the creatures could be heard, followed by the growling of a wolf. The battle seems hard, and Luna couldn't wait for it to sto

    "What do we do?" Luna questioned. "We have to find something that could harm Monsell. The last time I tried to hurt him, I couldn't hurt him. He placed a metal bar in my arm, and I am sure he might have something hidden on me."Ashford glanced at her, and he placed a hand on her hand. "Calm down; we will be fine, I promise."She offered him a warm smile, even though her smile was shaking. She placed her head on his; they were taking a ride to the pack. It was far away, and they didn't want to run all the way. The Monsells had horses, and when they found the horses, the horses were terrified. Thanks to Luna, the horses were able to let them take them.They were sitting in the carriage, and Neon and Bartarm were sitting on a horse outside the carriage. Luna and Bartram were left to stay inside, Luna's hands trembling as she clutched the edges of her seat during the ride and her eyes darting anxiously over the passing scenery. Ashford wondered what was going on in her mind."What if I can

    Ashford stared at her as she raised the sword to slit his head with it. Just when he thought she was going to kill him with her sword, she paused and bent to his height. Ashford stared at her weakly, and he placed his hand on the injury. He had to heal, think of something else to do to her, and save himself from her."You tried to kill yourself just to talk to me?" Luna muttered. "I guess I will have to listen to you."Ashford's eyes lit up amidst the pain he felt around his body. He nodded his head at her and coughed out, placing his hand on his mouth. He wiped blood off his face."Thank you, Luna," he replied."Why do you call me Luna?""That's your name; don't tell me you forgot."Luna's hands tightened around the sword's hilt, and her eyes narrowed into slits. 'Are you ready to go straight to the point?' she hissed, her voice laced with barely contained fury."I am." He answered. "I'm Ashford, your first mate.""Go on, what made you think I would believe that you are not Monsell bu

    Monsell took a step forward, with Luna holding his hand."We will throw them in the dungeon; that is exactly what we would do." Monsell said.Luna's lips curled up into an evil smile. "Let's get them!"Monsell grinned and removed her hands from his; he broke the metal he had placed on her wrist. He stepped backward."I would handle the rest of the stuff; get rid of them." He ordered.Luna nodded. "Sure."Monsell turned around and began walking away. Ashford couldn't let him leave like that. Ashford hurried after him, catching him by the hand and throwing a punch at his face. Just as Ashford was about to throw another punch, a hand held his wrist. He raised his head to look at who was holding him; it was Luna.There was no way Ashford was going to hurt Luna; she had no idea what she was doing. She pulled Ashford's hand away and kicked him in the stomach. The impact hit him, making him fall to his knees. Monsell chuckled and walked away, leaving Luna with them.Ashford scrambled to his f

    "Now, start the initiation." Monsell repeated. "We have to get her on our side before anyone comes for her.""You are going to regret this!" Luna yelled.Monsell smirked at her. "Not really; you will belong to the Hybire soon."Everyone in the room stood to their feet, reciting a quote. The quote was so old that it was affecting Luna's ears. She covered her ears and began screaming; her ears began bleeding, and blood began streaming down her face. She screamed in pain as memories filled her head, starting from the time that he met her father to the time that she was growing up.Soon, the memories of when she met her mother began to fade away. She tried to grab hold of her mother, but everything disappeared. The only thing she could see was Monsell; he was smiling at her and taking her hand.The memories of when she was with Assy all faded away. Assy became Monsell, and he was in every scene that he was in. He was smiling at her and taking her hand, helping her with everything.Luna's e

    "Whatever you want to do to me would never work." Luna snarled at the man in front of her. "You think taking my blood and using it to your own benefit is going to work as you thought? My mate is going to find you! And end you!"A slap hit her face, and the impact made her face move to the side. The chain gripped her hand tightly as she fell to her knees. Liquid filled her mouth, and when she spit it out, it was blood.Monsell bent to her height and cupped her face in her hands. His lips curled into a smile, and he pulled off his coat hat, revealing his face. Luna's eyes widened; his face wasn't what she thought it was going to be. His eyes were bright green, his hair was long and curly, and his jaw was chiseled. He was handsome, and Luna hated to admit it. He had a scar in between his eye sockets."You should learn to speak to me politely; do I look like a monster?" Monsell asked. "Your mate didn't try to save you the last time I took his sister, but your best friend appeared. He tried

    Luna's eyes opened in the dim, dark room; she was chained to a wall. She glanced around the room, trying to check where she was. She tried to get away from the wall, but it was impossible. She tried to use her power, but it was of no use. She glanced around the room, trying to remember where she was and why she was in the cell.She had been with Ashford and the rest outside, and she had killed all the creatures. Someone had knocked her out and brought her here; she couldn't remember anyone's face. There was a black smoke around them when she was knocked out."Ashford?" She called out. "Are you there?"There was no response.She tried to free herself again, but she suddenly felt weak. Weaker than she had ever felt, her body hurt as she tried again."Ashford?" She called again.She slapped herself for thinking that Ashford was near her. If he were, he wouldn't let her be chained to the wall like a slave. He couldn't do it, and then it hit her.
