If you had the number in front of you, everyone would be surprised. There were many and the reactions to me were positive. They even bowed and greeted me. So the hunters recognized me as queen.I had everyone's attention for a long time and they seemed to be waiting for orders, at least most of them had an expectant expression on their faces. At least I was finally able to do the job I had been doing.To be on the safe side, I cleared my throat and only then began, "First of all, I would like to thank you all for coming. You are an important part and a very big help in the pack." In fact, there was a cheer going around, telling me that they were happy to do it. They really wanted to stand up for us.In order to be informed straight away, I continued, "Could all the element carriers please go as a group to the left side and the pure hunters to the right side please. That way I can create a better strategy."You could discuss whatever you wanted, but the element carriers were even bette
I looked closely at the sword and it shined like new. The edge seemed sharp and the weight of it was fine. You could swing it and use it well in combat. The blade was silver and the handle was black. Otherwise, I would call it the standard.Next, Lucy handed me a belt as she said, "With a holder for the sword. I'm sure you'll want to use your elements too.""Thanks." I put down the shield and Lucy took the sword from me so that I could put the belt on straight away.I should be well equipped with this and continue to try to mentally prepare myself for the fact that I would soon face my old people and even have to fight against them. It was a lot, but never easy.—-------------------------It was an area between the werewolf and hunter realms. And that's exactly where the battle took place, in which the other party wanted me dead.It was complete chaos here. All hell was breaking loose and a lot of people were well into the fight when I arrived with Lucy. Werewolves in human and wolf f
I blocked his bullet and angrily threw one back at him. At the same time, I was allowed to use my sword to keep a hunter away from me. One thing was clear by now, I was her main target.Just as a second fire devil was about to attack me, a werewolf played hero and attacked him. Within seconds the hunter was finished. Unfortunately, it was to be expected that the enemies would kill each other.The game went on like this for a while and my energy never stopped. After months of withdrawal, everything came up, and wanted out. I had never been so strong in my life. Just because of the three new elements.This fight dragged on forever and I had enough to do. Lucy always stayed close to me, which was certainly an order from my mate. That was very clever because the beasts had a strong desire for me.A whine near me got my attention, even though I was currently dealing with two opponents. The werewolf that made the sound had to deal with two element carriers.I let my two enemies fly away wit
You could say what you wanted, but we were generally fair opponents.Well, not quite. I had a certain advantage.I let the flames die down on my right hand, this time to strike with the water element. With this element, at least against the fire, there was no explosion when they met.As a distraction, I slashed with my sword, and my right hand was slightly hidden behind my back so I could create the water sphere in the first place. I wanted to make it as big as possible because I barely had time for it.The return coach came from him shortly afterwards and at that moment I threw the watery surprise at him with force. I wanted to at least unbalance him a little.In this case, I even underestimated myself because Darren was thrown back about two meters. It wasn't just my fire element that was strong. No, the water honored me at least as much.Darren landed on his back and I was about to launch another attack to immobilize him, but he pointed both hands in my direction. Even before he ac
I dropped my arms and was out of breath. That demanded a lot from me, almost too much. My hands even shook slightly after this action.What did I do with him now?The conflict within me continued and there seemed to be no end to it. I was extremely overwhelmed by this situation and had absolutely no time to think. There were enough enemies around me and this battle was going on non-stop, so I had to act quickly.The first step was to pick up my sword again. Leaving this weapon behind would be a waste and could be a mistake.The decision regarding Darren was made for me by Amun, who ran towards him with a menacing growl. So he still looked for me and found me. My mate was reluctant to abandon me or leave me alone, especially if I was injured.Taking a closer look at this scenario was not an option because Zoran shouted, "Davina!" The tone announced that he could use some help, so I immediately turned to him. Furthermore, a king certainly had no problem dealing with an already battered
The next moment I wanted to turn my attention back to Timothy, but he couldn't be found. He had simply disappeared in all the chaos without me even being able to spot him anywhere. His fear of the king was huge and this proved it. He had left faster than anyone else. Among other things, that was a relief for me.Amun finally stopped next to me and I looked up at this graceful animal. He was the perfect killing machine and not just visually. The concern in his golden eyes was unmistakable. It was a miracle that I could even see it because he was very tall.To appease him, I said, "It's all good. Thanks for your help." As soon as this was said, a sword flew through the air, directly towards Amun. I reacted immediately and slowed down this weapon with a fireball so that no damage was done to my mate.I looked in the direction from which the sword had come, who had been stupid enough to attack the king.My heart stopped because this was Amelie, Timothy's wife. Her protectiveness towards m
Suddenly loud shouts from our enemies were heard, announcing to each other that they were retreating. They probably no longer saw any point in this fight. Unfortunately, I had long since lost track, but apparently, we had the advantage, which is why the hunters gave up, at least for today.Zoran and I paused as they all retreated. If we weren't attacked, we wouldn't be either.Relief flooded through me and it was only now that I realized how much I had exhausted myself. I was aware of it, just not in that way. I fell to my knees and was incredibly exhausted. Zoran joined me right next to me and did the same, we had both given a lot.That had been a fierce fight.Smiling slightly, I looked over at him and it was immediately reciprocated. I couldn't put into words how much I missed this man. Finally, we had each other again. Just seeing his face gave me great joy. Those brown, familiar eyes seemed exhausted, but they still held warmth.Knowing him, he winked at me and said, "Great perfo
With a sigh and a heavy heart, I turned to Zoran and Pablo. Now I had to say goodbye to both of them and go about my job.—--------------------I had completed the journey back to the castle on Amun's back. For me, it was a short break, but for him, it continued with effort. Thanks to his speed we soon covered this path.Our first destination was the office, which we just entered and Amun immediately closed the door behind us. After taking a few steps into the room, I stopped and ran my hands through my hair. You could hear the tiredness in my voice as I said, "That was..." However, I paused because I didn't have the right words for it. It was hard to describe exactly what that had been like.I turned to Amun, who arrived just ahead of me. Without saying anything in return, he pulled me into his arms and a hug was just the thing. He hugged me tightly and my arms found their way around him. I took a deep breath to inhale his calming scent.However, something occurred to me, but it was
"Alright, I'll do you a favor. I'll come back to this later.""I'm looking forward to it, I can't stop myself." She must have recognized the sarcasm in my words because I had made it clear.Flynn and Tyrone seemed to have continued to talk, at least the beta was saying, "As you wish, but the ball gown thing would be perfect. Maybe we can find new recruiters to replace you since you can be so mean."Oh, that was very daring.That deep, menacing growl from Tyrone made my heart stop for a moment. It was as if the world stopped for a moment. A shiver of fear ran down my spine and my eyes automatically found him.He glared at his beta, more like killing him with his eyes and he had one hand clenched tightly into a fist. As if he was preparing to harm someone.His voice mirrored his appearance as Tyrone replied, "You will look after her as if your life depended on what she does. And you will remind people that they need to be respectful of their Luna." He emphasized the word Luna, which was
I had just arrived at the front door with Flynn and then I realized something. I only had the high heels from last night.Did I seriously need to tour this area in high heels?Sure, it was doable, just uncomfortable and certainly not suitable footwear for this project.With a sigh, I turned to him and explained, "I only have yesterday's very high shoes. You'll probably have to be patient today because you're slower in those things."Flynn dismissed it with a wave of his hand and said, "No problem. We can go to a store and you can buy some suitable ones."Yes, but with what money?He probably didn't take into account that I had arrived here with hardly anything. Hopefully, Tyrone had told him that. You usually gave your best friend a story about your experiences, especially when it came to your mate.To be on the safe side, I remarked, "They didn't give me time to pack, so all my things will be sent later."Surprisingly, Flynn got a cheeky grin on his face, which made me look at him sl
The door opened and a man emerged. He had a higher rank because that's what he radiated.Werewolves could generally sense this. So I concluded that I was dealing with a beta. It was very likely that he was Tyrone's beta, at least that would be logical considering whose house I was in.It was confusing that he smiled, even more so when the words followed in a friendly tone, "Good morning Luna, nice that we got to know each other."He started moving and as he did I replied, "Good morning." I would reply that it was nice to meet him, but I still had absolutely no details."By the way, I'm Tyrone's beta."Oh well, as expected.—---------------------------"Ok, Beta from Tyrone and what's your name?" He didn't tell me that and this information would be great.Just before he got to me, I stood up to properly introduce myself. My good upbringing said hello.When he stood in front of me, he offered me his hand, which I accepted. "I'm Flynn and you must be Aurelia." How nice, then at least he
Aurore said, "I'm telling you, it's terrible. If we're too stupid to ever leave here, our first act in office is to burn this piece."Yes, we also liked to have very logical topics that were incredibly helpful if you had a ton of problems.—---------------------------------Meanwhile, I was sitting at the dining table and looking at the roll that was on the plate in front of me. It wasn't an exciting sight at all, but I wasn't capable of anything else.What concerned me most was Amanda. From Tyrone's behavior, his mom wasn't a nice person. Except it was his fault and not hers. I had to find out somehow, until then I shouldn't trust anyone.Aurore chimed in by saying, "We need to befriend someone who isn't part of this family. Someone neutral who can tell us something about the circumstances."That was my plan too, too the only question was how we should become friends. Amanda had said she wanted to show me the area, but Tyrone didn't want me near her.If I had the opportunity, I would
However, that was cut short as Aurore growled and yelled at me, "Get a hold of yourself, Aurela!" It was so loud that I could barely contain myself from wincing.Tyrone immediately got my full attention again as he ran over to my side again.Why did he do that?Why was he just looking for me?Why?!When he placed a kiss in the crook of my neck, I tensed. That was too much of a good thing, more of a bad thing. I was lucky that the dress was high-necked, so we had no skin-to-skin contact."I had to look for you for far too long." The crowning moment came when a slight growl was heard.However, I understood something at that moment.That wasn't Tyrone.No.This was his wolf who had gained the upper hand, which is why I had to deal with him.Addressing my wolf, I said, "Aurore, his wolf is your problem." You could hear in my voice how confused and completely overwhelmed I was.She mumbled, "Um, no thanks. You're doing well, I don't want to bother you any further.""Angsthase!""You're no
In the entrance hall, we took the door that was at the back. It was exactly the one Amanda had stepped out of yesterday when I met her.A corridor came into my field of vision and it was narrower than the one on the upper floor. There were also some paintings hanging here. Presumably, everything was papered with them, but these were works of art and not relatives or whoever was pictured on the others.Amanda continued to talk, but I was distracted by the surroundings so I barely noticed. That was rude, but there was a lot to see. Besides, she was in a torrent of talk and didn't want to be interrupted.Just as we reached a door and Amanda was about to open it, I heard a cold voice behind us say, "Aurela."I automatically turned around and immediately spotted Tyrone coming towards us. Joy looked completely different, but that's exactly the emotion you should expect from him.I had hoped that I wouldn't have to see him again today, but unfortunately, he was brutally murdered. I had to pu
I closed the door behind Amanda and turned to her. She walked to the middle of the room and then turned to me. It was kind of weird that she had the same eyes as Tyrone.Sure, many children had the same eye color as their parents. But it was also the same shape and this dark green was something of a rarity. At least I had never met anyone with that particular color.She had a smile on her face and asked, "How are you?" This was a very logical question that started most conversations. It was good that she took it into her own hands because I couldn't think of anything, it was all too new for that."Good thanks and you?" I managed to put on a slight smile, which I was very proud of."Also. How did you sleep?" She looked around the room, so I automatically did the same. There wasn't anything wrong with it. Except of course the color, which in my opinion was represented too often."Good, good. By the way, it's a nice room." A small part of it may be a lie, but politeness demanded this sta
If we accepted him seriously, then we were trapped. He could find us anywhere, which would make running away pointless. This would practically seal the fact that we would ultimately complete the Mate band.We had to avert all of this somehow and for that, we needed a good strategy.I was still standing in the same spot, desperately running a hand through my hair. I closed my eyes to better concentrate so nothing else could distract me.Aurore answered confidently, "We will find a solution. It can hardly be our fate that we have to submit to this man. Rejection is not an impossibility."But how should we do that?Tyrone obviously didn't want that when he was already talking about the next step.After taking a deep breath to calm myself, I asked, "And how?""You ask a good question and we'll find a good answer to that soon."At least one of us had the optimism within us. For me, that was a big miss.My wolf cleared her throat and said, "You should change into something else. We don't ha
That hit me like a slap in the face. I was separated from them and, if I was unlucky, I never saw them again. Essentially, I had lost her and was trapped in a house with a strange man who scared me.Tyrone said, “Welcome to the Darkmoon Pack.”With those final words, another wave came over me and it was powerful enough to almost bring me to my knees as it was so overwhelming. I gave everything I had to stay firmly on both feet and always looked back at him.The connection to the whole pack was palpable and I didn't miss the fact that it was much larger than my previous one. There were many members, of which I was now a member.Tyrone looked at me and said, "You're the first one who doesn't make a sound when taking the picture."I raised an unimpressed eyebrow and asked, "Why should I?""My pack is much stronger and has more than four times as many members. A recording has brought down werewolves that come from a place larger than your old one."Aurore growled and said, "My dear, you u
