ATLAS

The drive to the border is quiet, I have instructed Easton to keep Amelia occupied until I get back. He and Enzo weren't pleased with the whole Russia roulette idea but they know their opinions don't matter to me.

My mind is set on what I need to do and I know it is this or accept them being a part of our territory and having them here is going to get the packs killed.

Zayn is hellbent on killing me and getting rid of my pack will be nothing for him, Ethel was a warning.

A warning that he could get into my mansion right under my nose and harm one of my people, he had picked Ethel knowing how weak she was, or how weak he assumed her to be.

He better have prayed to the moon goddess to keep him alive because today he will certainly die.

"Welcome to my humble abode," Zayn smirks as we highlight from the car.

He motions us into the house he has taken from the witches and now claims as his, I barely throw him a glance. Anger seething through me at the idea of just killing him with

    ATLASI glare at him, my eyes blazing with fury. "She is not just a random woman, she is my mate and the Luna of my pack," I say through gritted teeth. "And I will not allow her to be used as a pawn in your sick games."Cane's smirk widens, clearly enjoying my frustration. "Well, well, Alpha. Looks like you've grown soft. Love does that to you, doesn't it? It makes you weak."I resist the urge to lunge across the table and rip his throat out. Instead, I take a deep breath, trying to maintain control. "Let's get this over with based on our agreement."Cane shakes his head, "I think it will be fun to have the women this time."My nose flares up as I grind the back of my teeth staring at him with the stupid smile on his face, Amelia was right about watching out for Ethel. Even though they are mate, I don't trust that he won't hurt her with how twisted his mind works. Zayn chuckles, seemingly entertained by the situation. "Oh, come on, Atlas. Where's your sense of adventure? Aren't you t

    ATLASAmelia stares at him, her gaze steady. "Yeah," she replies alongside Nicole. I stand in front of her, my heart pounding in my chest as she closes her eyes. I want to grab her hands, stop this madness, and protect Amelia, but I know I have to trust her strength and abilities. She is my mate, after all, and I must have faith in her.Cane reaches over to the table and picks up the revolver, examining it carefully. "How about you both fire the gun at their head? That will be better don't you think," he suggests but it isn't a suggestion. It's an order. A sick one. I grab the revolver on the table alongside Zayn, I place the gun on the back of Amelia's head, my finger hovering over the trigger nervously.Zayn mirrors my action and places his revolver on the back of Nicole's head, a sinister smile on his face."Are you sure about this, Luna?" he asks a hint of mockery in his voice.Amelia meets his gaze, her eyes blazing with resolve. "I'm sure," she says firmly. "Let's get this ove

    ATLASI waste no time in walking into the street and joining the witches. Easton packs his car right in the corner and joins the rest in getting rid of the humans.The witches form a circle their palms open wide facing the sky as they close their eyes chanting and attempting to build up a shield while members of my packs try to get rid of the humans getting into the blue flare forming around the perimeter. My eyes quickly scan the area, searching for Ophelia amid the witches. Bullets fly past me, but they merely bounce off my shoulder as some of my pack members run to my side attempting to shield me.I raise my hands to rally them off from protecting me and protect the witches instead, we need them to create the shield 'Keep them off the line, but get me their leader, someone led them here,' I mind-link them. They all nod their head transforming into their wolf form. They howl loudly before charging beyond the witches attacking the humans viciously.It seems that the humans underest

    AMELIAAs Enzo drives off towards the mansion, I look back to see Atlas joining the pack members, worry gnawing at my insides.Enzo makes a turn and the sight of Atlas slowly fades away, "He will be fine," Enzo reassures me. I turn on my seat to face him, I can see his hand tightening on the steering.My fingers nervously twist in my lap, betraying the fear that pulses through me. Each passing second feels like an eternity, and the sound of my heartbeat pounding in my chest. I wonder how the humans decided to attack us, this is all Zayn's fault If the border had been up none of this would have happened. The thought of Atlas being in danger scares me, It makes my chest ache.I bite my bottom lip nervously peering out the window, my eyes scanning the streets. I wish I could join him but I know he won't allow it.We soon arrive at the mansion, I barely make it out of the car when two maids rush to my side bowing their heads.Enzo gets out of the car hurriedly "Take her to her room."My

    AMELIAIgnoring Sage's smug expression, I take a deep breath and gather my courage. "I know that I haven't earned your trust yet, but I promise you that I will do everything in my power to protect our pack," I say.There is a moment of silence before the pack members start to nod their heads, some with hesitant smiles. It seems that they are slowly beginning to believe in me.Starting to believe that I am not a figurehead who wants to be tagged a Luna and not participate in affairs like this. One of the pack members steps forward, "Luna, we appreciate your willingness to help, but we can't risk your safety. The Alpha has..."I meet his gaze, my voice firm as I interrupt him. "I understand your concern, but I cannot sit back and do nothing."The pack member's stern expression softens slightly, and he nods in agreement. "Very well, Luna. We will follow your lead. But please promise us that you will prioritize your safety."I nod, understanding now why they had been hesitant to speak to

    AMELIAWorried lines crease on my forehead as I walk closer to see the maids tending to them, the smell of wolfsbane hitting my nose. This is bad. Easton stands silently by my side, his expression grim. "What of the Midnight Crescent pack and Cane?" Atlas didn't even bother with them, we left without a word. "Those two are pieces of shit, Cane probably ran off to Daddy and Zayn-" he mutters under his breath, his voice laden with anger. "That bastard has his men killing ours as well."In a way, if we all die he will have this territory to himself. He has always been selfish, using any means necessary to get what he wants. "Don't we have a hospital?" I remember Atlas saying they have everything."We do but it is right in the center of the bloody attack," Easton replies. "So we are moving all the nurses and doctor here, get enough help as possible," he adds.Two nurses rush in helping a man to one of the vacant beds, "Hurry, he is losing blood," one of them yells. "Why aren't there mo

    ATLASI hear a loud thud, my eyes open as I sit up, my hand clasping my chest as I groan in pain resting back slowly. Enzo rushes to my side staring into my eyes for a second, worry etched on his face before it softens."Thank goodness," Enzo sighs.I try to sit up still feeling disoriented, the last I remember is that bastard human hovering over my wolf form but I was too weak by the wolfsbane to attack him as viciously as I wanted to. My eyes scan the unfamiliar room, too small to be even called a room. Only a small bed, a couch, and a wardrobe are in place. Where the hell am I? The noise of howling and growling feels the air outside.I place my hand on my shoulder memory of the bullet piercing through me, a little hole is still in place and the sting still shooting to my head but it will heal from the look of it, "Where the hell are we?" I ask Enzo who is already standing upright, his eyes still on me. He goes to the window to peep before looking back at me to speak, "In a random

    ATLASEnzo hurries to grab a chair for me to sit down, he seems to have everything set in place. The items in the living room as been set aside creating enough space.Well, torture is something Enzo enjoys, something we both seem to have in common.He grabs a face towel and a bucket of water by the chair, he walks behind the man while I sit down on the chair. He pulls the man's head backward covering his face with the towel before grabbing the bucket of water and pouring it over his face. It takes a couple of seconds but the man's body suddenly jerks up to life as he struggles to breathe, Enzo chuckles at his weak attempt to break free, he pours the water a little bit holding the man's neck backward before dropping the bucket down and removing the towel. The man moves his head forward coughing out water, he raises his head to meet me as a frown falls on his face at the sight of me sitting before him, hands now folded over my chest leaning back into my chair.

    AMELIA My heart swells with pride and joy as I hug Atlas tightly. I can't believe that he was chosen as the Alpha King. In a way, I dreamt of him being the Alpha King but I was also accepting if he came home otherwise. It all didn't matter to me but this is a testament to his strength, courage, and leadership qualities. He is a good leader who always puts his pack first and I know he will do well to protect his pack and other packs at large. "I'm so proud of you," I whisper this time, my voice thick with emotion. "You're going to do great." He smiles down at me, his eyes filled with love and admiration. "Thank you, my love," he says. "I couldn't have done it without you, so 'We' are going to do great." He gently cups my face in his hands and leans in to kiss me. The kiss is slow yet passionate and filled with all the love and longing we have been feeling for each other during our time apart. When we finally pull away, I can't help but smile. "I love you, Atlas." "I love you," h

    _TWO WEEKS LATER_AMELIAI roll over in bed, waking up to the sunlight streaming through the window and casting a warm glow across the room. I stretch and yawn, then roll over to check my phone on the bedside table. There is a message from Atlas.[Good morning, beautiful. Miss you tons here. Another day closer to seeing you. :)]My heart skips a beat as I read his words. It has been two weeks since he left for the Alpha King Chosen Games, and I miss him more than anything. We have been communicating constantly over the phone, but it isn't the same as being with him in person.To think he just got back after being away and now we have to talk over the phone again, I just hope this doesn't become a constant thing. I get out of bed and walk over to the window, looking out at the forest below. The trees are still bare, but I can see the first hints of spring in the air. I wonder what Atlas is doing at that moment. Is he training? Is he competing in one of the challenges? Is he thinking a

    ~ONE WEEKS LATER ~ATLASIt has been one week since Amelia's mother died, by rites we had to conduct the burial two days later but the burial was shifted to today because Amelia wanted her mother to be cremated.In her words, she doesn't want anyone to be able to use her mother's body ever again. I know her mother's death took a toll on her, so I made sure to keep the burial within the mansion.We stand by her mother's body watching it burn into ashes, Amelia sobs silently in my embrace. She has barely said a full sentence over the past few days, as long as she eats and allows me to comfort her I do not bother her about talking. I understand the pain she must be going through, to lose someone yet again, and this time right before your own eyes knowing you could have saved them if you knew sooner. In a way, she blames Griffin. I saw it in her eyes when we left the room as she cried out in my arms. She blames him for keeping her out of their plans for years and she blames herself more

    AMELIA"Don't be, my child," my mother whispers, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's not your fault."I shake my head, tears streaming down my face. "But it is," I sob. "I should have been there for you, I should have protected you."If I had not been so naive, if I had been more observant then maybe I would have seen that her death wasn't real. Maybe I would have picked up on her closeness with Griffin and why? I squeeze her hand tightly not wanting to let go of her, tears streaming down my eyes uncontrollably."You couldn't have known," she says softly. "This was meant to happen.""No, it wasn't," I argue. "You didn't deserve this." The Alpha King did this to her, and I am grateful he is dead now but I can't lose her, I can't lose her again. She needs to fight this and stay with me."I know, my sweet," she says. "But it's too late now and we must accept our fate."I grip her hand tightly, refusing to let go. "No, it's not too late," I say fiercely. "I'll find a way to save you.

    AMELIAAfter Atlas leaves, I close my eyes hoping to fall asleep but my eyes open at the sound of a knock on the door. I tilt my head slightly to find Griffin by the door with a grin on his face, he steps in and closes the door behind him."Hey," he says walking towards the bed. "I thought to come and check on you after what I heard happened to you."I straighten up on the bed pulling the duvet over my chest, "Atlas told you?" I ask wondering how he knew I was in Atlas room. He shakes his head in a sign of No, "I have my ways Amelia, the only issue I am having currently is getting into your head," he replies grabbing a chair in the corner of the room and placing it next to the bed. His eyes fall on the table broken into pieces by the side of the room as he takes his seat, he smirks at the sight of it and turns his gaze to me. "What have your beloved mate been up to?" He asks. "I thought he would have died by now but turns out he has been able to hold on for a little longer."My eye

    ATLAS I get up from the bed reluctantly, my mind filled with worry and uncertainty. As I walk down the corridors of the packhouse towards the living room, I mind-link one of the guards to get me Ophelia but I find her in the living room discussing with one of the guards. "Alpha," she turns around sensing my presence, and bows her head. "I was discussing with the guard to watch over our Luna, I suspected that you might be tired from the journey," she says a hint of concern in her voice."I need to talk to you about something," I reply, my voice filled with urgency as I raise my hand in the air waving the guard off. The guard bows his head and excuses us."Something is happening to me, something strange," I admit to her going to sit down on one of the couches, she follows behind and takes a seat opposite me. Ophelia's eyes narrow as she studies me, sensing the gravity of my words. "What is it?" she asks.Taking a deep breath, I begin to explain everything that has been happening. The

    ATLASShe responds eagerly, her arms wrapping around my neck. It is a kiss filled with passion and longing. As we break apart, I gaze into her eyes, seeing the love and trust reflecting on me.She sits up and leans closer to me wrapping her hand around my waist and pulling me closer to her, a smirk falls on my face watching what she is doing. She places her head on my chest snuggling in, "You feel so warm," she mutters.I place my hand to her shoulder pushing her off slowly away from me. She raises an eyebrow at me with a questioning look but her eyes soon soften when she sees me getting in bed with her. Pulling her closer to me she snuggles in closer to me again resting her head on my chest as I wrap my hand around her.My hand suddenly trembles on her, I raise it to look at my hand feeling the darkness consuming me again, she raises her head to look at me wondering what's wrong. As her eyes meet mine, her lips part, "your eyes," she says sitting up straight. "It's red." I nod agr

    ATLASI stare at her neck yanking her hair further back as she swallows in, her eyes flickering with fear at what I am about to do to her.Placing the silver blade to her neck, a knock suddenly falls on the door. I stare at Easton, and he nods going to check who dared to interrupt us. Easton opens the door slightly making me unable to see who is on the other side but I don't miss the words of the woman behind the door. "Ophelia asked me to inform the Alpha that our Luna is awake."My hardened gaze softens at the realization that Ophelia was able to keep her alive. I let go of Nicole's hair, she breathes out relief washing over her face. "Take care of them," I instruct Easton, gesturing the silver blades toward Zayn and Nicole. "A slow death."Easton nods, "Yes, Alpha."I rush out of the cell following the woman back to my room, my heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and fear. As I enter, I see Ophelia and the other witches by her bedside. "She is better now but will take awhi

    ATLASEaston quickly nods and rushes out of the room to carry out my orders. I can sense the fear emanating from him, knowing that he has let me down in the worst possible way. I turn my attention back to Amelia, my heart aching with every passing second. Her breathing is shallow, and I can see the struggle on her face. It's as if time has slowed down, and the weight of the world rests on my shoulders.I lean closer to her, "I am right here, Wildcat," I say aloud hoping she can hear me.I can feel the connection between us vibrating with energy as if begging her to hold on, to fight. I pour every ounce of love and strength I have into the bond, hoping that it will somehow reach her and ignite a spark of hope within her.Minutes turn into hours, and I refuse to leave her side. I whisper words of encouragement, recounting the moments we've shared, reminding her of the love that we shared. But still, there is no response.I decide to freshen up, I reek of blood and sweat and if she wake
