Damon stepped out of the cubicle he had been placed in and walked towards me. My smile of pride fell as he neared closer to me. My heart thumps loudly inside of me as my hand grew sweaty all of a sudden, like I was nervous.My mind wandered to different thoughts.What was he going to do to me? Was he going to drag me off to the border once more? Was he going to send me back to my father's pack?I didn't know what to do so I just stood there as he drew closer to me, there was a frown on his face and his eyes held no emotions.Worst of it all was that the thread that was joining us together wasn't strong enough for me to really understand the emotions he was feeling at this moment.I didn't know if he was angry at me or if he was happy to see me or if he just wanted me to leave. Whatever he made up his mind to do, I was going to accept because I knew I had hurt him in ways he hadn't even imagined.But I couldn't deny that a part of me was happy to see him, to see those oceanic blue
In less than twenty minutes, everyone was gathered at the clearing. And all the teenagers were in their training outfits. The warriors also were in their fighting gears and there was an aura of dominance that filled the air.Despite the fierce looks on everyone's faces, I could still see the fear that brewed inside of them. My father's pack was known for their brutality and it was scary that they would have to face them."Ok listen everyone. In less than an hour, the west crescent pack would try to break into our pack, this is a war that we've tried to avoid because of the few warriors we have."Damon started to say as his voice echoed through the atmosphere and everyone turned to him in anticipation and respect.From the corner of my eyes, I saw his parents standing at the left with Jane and Jeremy who I had waved at earlier. Christian nodded at me and I smiled. I knew it would take a while before his trust for me grew but I was ready to wait for as long as he needed.Noir stood
Selene's POV."How many warriors in total do you think your father has?"Christian asked Lucy and I exchanged looks as we thought of how many men in total my father would have."Fifty!!." We both said in unison and Damon nodded. "Ok good." Damon said as the sound of the teenagers coming back echoed as we turn to their direction as they once more filled the clearing. All their eyes were shining with anticipation as they watched us and waited for an order."How many teens do we have?" Damon asked Christian as he stepped forward."Forty Nine. Alpha and we have Thirty Eight warriors except me, and you." Christian said and Damon nodded before going silent once more.I saw Christian run to the teens and help them adjust the bag of arrows at their backs as he explained to them how to use the grenades."Christian, I want you to handpick the wolves who are good enough for combat and with the arrows. And those who are still training should be in a group." Christian started to separate the te
Damon's POV.I heard Selene yelling my name behind me as I continued running to the borders. I didn't have the time to look back at her, nor did I have the time or hard heart to let her come with me.It was going to be a bloody yet dangerous war and I didn't want her to watch me kill her father. Because no matter how much she hated him for all the abuse he had inflicted on her, she was still his daughter and it would hurt to see him die by my hands.I was grateful Noir had been there to take her away and as she yelled my name, I only felt more determination to end this war quickly and have her back in my arms.I was happy that I had told her how much I loved her and gave her the necklace I got her.Just in case I didn't make it back alive she was going to know I had forgiven her and I've always loved her.I sighed, as I looked up at the moon shining so bright above us in it's half form. I made a silent prayer to the moon goddess to protect the pack and give us victory.If there was
Selene's PovI heard the sound of the door breaking outside and I shivered in fear, wondering who it was but I knew already because the scent of warriors filled the room and I closed my eyes when another loud bang filled the room.I looked at Noir who was just about leaving as she glanced around, thinking of something. I knew she was calculating the number of men that were outside the door, thinking of a way to defeat them.But I knew she couldn't do that, there were too many outside and I was mad at myself for underestimating my father. Of course, he had a back up plan because it was impossible for them to go past Damon's army at the borders so soon.Another loud bang sounded outside the door and I cowered in fear as I rested my back against the wall when I felt something in my back pocket.I took it out to see a telecom that Christian had passed around to the other wolves and I decided to communicate with Damon through it. He must have put it in my pockets when I was busy at leav

Do this and be bless and don't forget to rate this book. Thank you.Selene's POV.The bomb went off just as I made to head towards him. The loud bang burst my eardrums and the force flew me backwards that I landed on my butt on the hard ground.There was so much pain around my back and shoulders and for seconds, I couldn't move nor hear a thing.My body felt like it had been taken through a shredder and cut into various pieces as I finally opened my eyes.Above me was smoke, the air was filled with dust and smoke from the bomb blasts.The wagon was burning from beside me, caught in roaring flames as it consumed every part of the vehicle.Bodies of my father's men littered around the floor, dead with their eyes wide opened that stared into nothing.I blinked rapidly, the only part of my body that I could move right now was
Damon's POV.It was getting harder to remain on my feet, I didn't know how many hours had passed but neither of us were submitting.It's been a very long time I fought last and it was taking a toll on my body, but knowing fully well that Selene might be in danger kept me going.I couldn't take my eyes off Dakota for a second and Christian was busy fighting off the other wolves in his wolf form.I still couldn't shift yet because I didn't want to risk without answering Selene in case her voice came in the telecom. I prayed she was ok as I got distracted when Dakota slashed his claws on my stomach, tearing it immediately.I staggered backwards as I finally became conscious of my environment.Bodies of wolves laid dead in the woods, and I recognized only a few were from my pack.There were more bodies of Alpha Dakota's men pack as mine had taken most of them with arrows. Dakota had been foolish enough to only go for close range attacks.I marched forward as I slammed my fist into Dakota
Selene's POV.My eyes glittered with unshed tears as I disconnected the telecom and shoved it into my pocket. Despite Damon's warnings, I still went ahead to meet with Jeremy.He could be in danger and I wasn't going to sit back and watch something happen to him. Never.But hearing Damon's voice made me feel happy atleast because we were now on speaking terms.I felt joy coursed through me so I prayed that he was ok, his voice sounded strained like he was out of breath. I could only imagine the pain he was going through, because no matter how strong Damon was, my father was the perfect match for him coupled with the experience my father had in numerous wars.The green moss pack had never been into any serious and real fight with any pack under Damon's rule, so defeating my father wasn't going to be a walk into the park. I looked up at the sky, the moon shining above me as I let out a silent prayer that the pack has won.A loud explosion erupted and the ground shook, making me lose
