Once getting ready and meeting Lincoln down in his dining room, we both sit in silence as he drinks his coffee, and I stare down at the food he’d prepared for me. I knew he had so many questions for me surrounding why I didn’t want to stay with Alban and everything in between, but all he did was watch me with a raised eyebrow.

“I know you prefer marmalade on your toast, but I don’t have any in the cupboards, so I hope butter can suffice.” He said breaking the long and tense silence, a tiny smile on his lips as he looked at me sat at the table.

“Butter is perfect, thank you.” I smiled grateful that he too remembered the things that I liked when I lived here before, my eyes soon falling back to the plate where one and a half pieces of toast sat.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Lincoln sighs after a moment of even more deafening silence, where I could only look up at him a little confused not knowing what he was getting at.

“Why didn’t you tell me that Alban is your mate?” He asked wit

    Alban sat at his desk in the pack house waiting for Alpha Maxwell to arrive, his hands placed together on the desk whilst his eyes trained to the door. Since learning what this Alpha had attempted to do with his mate, he had been waiting for this moment, he had envisioned all that he was going to say to the grotesque man who wanted to rob Alban of the person who was his by right. What he also couldn’t get out of his mind was Iris and the cries he had heard from her when he left, he was of course an Alpha who never show their feelings and are evil and tough by nature, but she was still his mate. It was his job to protect her and make sure she was happy, but due to his urges and nature, he hurt her in ways he never intended to. He was so overcome with lust and the anger that this Alpha had brought for him, he allowed his emotions to get the better of him. This meant the hatred he feels towards this man whom he had never even met, only grew higher. Before those thoughts could marinat

    Once I slowly ate my toast, Lincoln showed me around his most beautiful house, I have to say it was much more modern than Albans. Lincoln’s house’s colour scheme was black and white, all of his cupboards looked to be very slick and clean, even his staircase descended into a spiral shape. As for Albans house, his seemed a lot more dated in style, golds and whites littered his home and reminded me of a royal type of getaway. Both were absolutely beautiful homes I thought only famous people lived in! When Lincoln heard that I hadn’t been anywhere apart from in our parent's house or Albans, he declared that I would need to be given an updated tour of the pack, and I was out his front door in a matter of seconds. I had to admit that getting to spend this one-on-one time with Lincoln was definitely, what I needed. Since arriving back home, it seems as though all I’ve done is sit around and watch as others got on with their lives or sit in a hospital bed injured. But now to have the chan

    The tension which clung to the air was so thick, it was as though there was some looming cloud of darkness over our heads threatening to burst with each second that passed. The intense gaze from each man I stood in front of made me start to sweat, each with their differing opinions as to what they expected me to say and one of those men in particular, waiting to see if it was acceptable for him to pounce if I spoke the wrong word. As my mind raced with the many thoughts surrounding the two packs, one odd realisation came to mind, one I would have never even imagined myself feeling. When I thought of agreeing to leave with Max and waving goodbye to this place and people, I couldn’t help the deep-rooted sadness which spread throughout my body. It was as though some part of me was forever connected to this place and one if I left, would weigh down my heart each day and prevent me from living. I didn’t know if it was due to the recent conversation that Lincoln and I shared before we l

    After watching Max drive away, Lincoln excused himself stating he was putting my box away, but I knew what happened, Alban had ordered him to leave me and him alone to speak, the look Lincoln gave me was anything but I’m just popping out and truly, be careful. With his arm still wrapped around my shoulders, Alban leads me up the stairs of the pack house and towards his office, the last time I was in here, Alban and I were having a very intimate moment. Opening up the door, the sofa is what I spot first which allowed heat to rise to my cheeks and fear to ignite in my chest. “Please take a seat.” Alban instructed me as the door was closed behind us and his arm, finally removed from my shoulders where I could only stand in my place as though I was a statue watching him walk around his desk. “I’d rather stand, the last time I sat down and allowed my guard down with it, something which shouldn’t have happened, happened.” I say placing my hands behind my back whilst forcing my eyes to

    Lincoln managed to show me around most of the pack grounds before he was called away to the border, some kind of rouge had appeared and due to Alban getting held back in some other meeting, it was up to the Beta to handle it all. This left me to stroll into Lincoln’s house alone, the emptiness of his home mixed with the darkness, I couldn’t help but sigh. Back at The Full Moon Pack, I never felt lonely or bored because I’d always have something to do, there were many times I’d be on my feet getting work done late into the early hours and would be up two hours later to begin my work for the day. I didn’t have much time to allow my thoughts to wonder, which is why I believe after the first few weeks of being away I lost the feeling of home sickness, I didn’t have time to think or feel anything which weren’t the tasks I was given. But now I’ve returned home, it’s as though all I have is time for my mind to wonder, time to question everything that’s happened to me and what will happen

    “What kind of urgent plea?” I asked with a hint of worry in my voice, yes, I was concerned as to what my wolf may know that I may not, but I lived at The Full Moon Pack for five years and built such a strong connection with many people there, I didn’t want any of them getting hurt. “The Alpha Maxwell sent a distress call in; such a call is only utilised in dire situations. In most cases, they request immediate back up from an army, but he has only identified needing you.” The former Alpha informs me from the side, where my mind still littered with the unknowns, what’s happening that only I can help with? “Did he give you any other information?” I asked now turning back to look at Alban, who sat back in his chair watching my face intently, as though he was attempting to catch if my emotions changed as the conversation progressed. “He mentioned their group of hounds, we believe they may have escaped their pens and are now attacking pack members but that is simply speculation.” The

    Alban bounded through the pack with me still sitting on his back, the closer we got to the main section, the louder the screams became and the more my heart sunk. The guard hadn’t given me much information, but to hear the hounds only escaped because they were looking for me, I couldn’t help the guilt that I felt for leaving them. “Stop here, if you shift and hide within the tree-line behind me, I’ll call them over.” I instructed Alban as I recognised the thinning of the trees meant we were close to entering through the town, the screams and shouts but now, the unmissable sounds of biting and growling told me I was in the correct place. Alban does as I ask him and stops, allowing me to lift my leg over and slid down his wolf’s side until my feet landed on the floor. Standing alone for a moment, I couldn’t stop my entire body shaking from worry and anticipation, what if these hounds are angry that I’d left and won’t listen to me or worse, because I’ve been away and at a different p

    The only sound around was the growling of the hounds with their eyes placed on one person, Max, who also didn’t look the happiest in this moment. These hounds didn’t like Max in the slightest, I didn’t know why, but even when he would come with me to feed them every now and then, they wouldn’t allow him in the pen and would go for him any chance they got. So now I had ordered them to stand in the position as though they were about to fight, it was an easy task for them to fulfil. “I’m not doing this to get one up on you Max, even though I don’t live here anymore doesn’t mean I suddenly hate you, you’re still as much of my best friend as you were when I left. But you know what keeping these here without me is going to do, I mean the countless dead bodies which are laying on the asphalt not meters away from us is evidence alone. Please Max, I want to make sure they’re kept safe but all the people I’ve come to love in your pack safe also. I’m not your enemy Max.” I say looking Max righ

    The screams and cries only continue as more blades are pelted our way, but now with the sudden realisation at who the intended target was, Alban, who hadn’t released my hand, slides me across the floor until I landed under him, his body shielding mine from any attacks. Watching as many of our fighters attempted to defend our pack but were soon hit with those awful blades, each fell to the floor in heaps of blood, those blades are no joke. The longer I watched the more I realised, I have the specialist knowledge and training to deal with these blades and any person using them against us but I’m allowing my mate to cuddle me as though I’m some scared child, I need to fight this. “I am not allowing you out into the open, I do not care if you may have the training, now you are home with me, it’s my job to protect you. I will have our men continue forward, they are outnumbered by us, they’ll grow tired.” Alban informs me with a dead look after hearing my thoughts, but I shake my head r

    After slipping into my second dress for the night, I allow Alban to lead me back out of the pack house and towards where the party was still raging and since we left, it had gotten a lot more chaotic. The sky transformed into a mixture of orange and red as the sun slowly began to set, many of the pack children sending me waves as they were led away by nannies for bed to allow their parents a break to party. This meant the drinks began to flow even faster with each person around seeming to dip deeper into an intoxicated daze, its clear this party was heading in to lasting all night. With a smile, Alban leads me down the steps and towards the dance floor, most people breaking it down a little or couples seeming to sway back and forth enjoying the moment. “Is it a bad time to tell you I can’t dance?” I asked with a little chuckle as I’m led right into the middle of the dance floor, many pack members moving to the side to allow Alban and I some room. “Just lean into me and follow my

    Once I was safely in Alban’s office with the blinds drawn, I allow the worried thoughts that been swirling around my brain to fully showcase on my face and mannerisms as I paced up and down, the dress seeing this as the perfect time to drop to the floor. Due to how large Alban was, his jacket had managed to cover my most sensitive parts as my dress lay on the floor at my feet. Alban who hadn’t noticed as he was covering the blinds soon turns and spots me standing only in his jacket, where he took a deep breath in biting his fists a little. “You better begin to talk baby, or you’ll be over that desk in a matter of seconds.” He growled out seeming to be fighting with his emotions whilst I stepped out of my ruined dress that lay on the floor, which sucked as I really liked that dress. “I appreciate that you thought on your feet to get us out of eyeshot but did you seriously, have to rip the dress, I liked it?!” I asked looking down at the once beautiful gown that lay in a heap on t

    After the formal side of the ceremony had concluded, the party to celebrate my Lunaship began. The atmosphere was high and cheerful, each person sat with huge smiles on their faces and the most exotic drinks were served, some of the most delicious but also posh looking food handed out on gold plates and music blaring. Most of my time was spent speaking with so many pack members who offered me their congratulations but also expressed how excited they were for me to become Luna. Whilst the pack children ran over with beautiful cards they had made, going into this I thought I’d be riddled with anxiety due to who was watching but the longer the party continued, the more I forgot all about it. “I can’t believe you’re the Luna, a few years ago, mostly at those parties, I wouldn’t have expected you to be the Luna.” One of my old friends Harry laughs with an odd drink in his hands, whilst I just had to laugh recalling some of the memories of that time, most due to the amount of alcohol I

    I was soon following Polly out of the bedroom and towards the grand staircase of Alban’s house, my dress getting held up a little as I walked down the steps. My mother and Lincoln stood at the bottom where she began to take many photos of him in his very smart suit, before all eyes turn to me walking down the steps where I’m met with the biggest of smiles. “You look beautiful Iris, when did my little sister grow up?” He asked leaving my mother and holding his hand out to help me down the final few steps, where I just had to smile shrugging my shoulders. “Honestly, I have no idea either, I remember us walking down the steps when I’d rope you and Alban into playing dress up with me and I somehow managed to persuade you to wear a dress.” I laughed recalling the times I’d make them have a tea party with me, even though they claimed they hated it, I know they loved eating all the treats our mother made for us. “Luckily mum was never around with a camera to capture those moments, I se

    The way Polly held my eye contact answered all the many uncertainties surrounding the story I was told by Samual, I suppose I still had some doubts surrounding the facts, but with the look that sat on Polly’s face, it was as though she had seen a ghost. If I indeed knew all about the affair, her plotting to kill her own son and him escaping before she could do such a thing, it meant the entire pack was one step closer to finding out the truth. I had two options, tell her I knew everything, all the lies she had made everyone believe. But the only issue, it would be much harder for me to not tell her how it was I knew, I couldn’t openly tell her the son she wanted us all to believe was dead was sat in a cabin a few miles from here plotting her death! That would not only freak her out but she’d definitely, not act her normal self, I mean anyone in that position wouldn’t! Or my second option, play dumb and see if she’ll slip up and give me even more information by accident. “I know… w

    Most of the time I like to have the chance to slowly wake up from my sleep, allow my mind time to get with the world a little bit before I’m forced into whatever the day entails. But today, the sounds of the curtains getting ripped open snap me from my dreamland stance, with all that happened yesterday with Samual, I was more on edge where my eyes snapped open in case of danger. But instead of finding Samual and his men, I found Polly and my mother wheeling things into the bedroom causing us much more destruction I believe Samual would. Alban groaning in annoyance whilst placing the pillow over his face told me he also wasn’t in the mood to deal with these women at this hour. “Alright up! We have so much we need to get done and do not have time for either of you to lay in bed!” Polly’s loud and obnoxious voice called throughout the bedroom, my ears ringing slightly as they were also not expecting to be bothered this early in the morning. “But the ceremony doesn’t start until 11:

    “They’re going to try and kill Polly tomorrow?” Lincoln asked in a state of shock and worry, whilst I shook my head going to stand up straight, but I’m soon pulled right back so my head lay on Alban’s chest, I believe he needed me close so my scent would help calm him, or that destroyed cabin would soon see its last day with this angry Alpha’s rampage. “No, they were planning on killing her tomorrow, but I managed to persuade Samual to postpone it, I said the day should be about Alban and I and not Polly. He agreed but was sure to warn me of what the repercussions would be if I told Alban or anyone else.” I explained my eyes still going to the window as though Samual could see through the blinds and thick curtains around the windows. “He threatened you?” Alban growled taking that from my comment snapping me from my trance at the window, it was as though I knew someone was there. “He didn’t threaten me but was sure to remind me that he had eyes everywhere, all those men will be p

    Once that terrifying sentence left my lips, I saw Alban freeze in place as though he was attempting to make what I said seem real. My body still shock as all that I remembered us talking about was fresh in my mind, but for Alban, he only growled lowly. “Are you certain that is who you were speaking with, could this have been some rouge claiming to be my brother?” He asked after a moment of silence, his eyes glazed over with anger the more he thought about it all. “It was him Alban, he knew things that only Samual would know. I knew you’d want conformation so when I left, I went in for a hug, smell my coat.” I sighed now disclosing my reasoning for that odd hug, where Alban wasted no time walking forward taking the biggest smell of my coat, the scent of his suspected dead brother lingering on me. “That bastard.” He growled out in a rage but quickly, unzips the coat and pulls it from my body throwing to the side, I don’t think he appreciated me smelling like another man especially
