last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Archer stood in his office with his arms crossed over his chest, the information that he learnt about his mate but also, the complete unknown of what his mate was hiding had been swirling around his head all night. But that was not the only pressing matter at hand, he and Emmett had just returned from an important meeting regarding his mate and the oncoming attacks from her old pack his spies have found out, each official advising him of what they believe should be done. Some say invade whilst others suggest using Fern as a piece treaty, neither side agreeing and only shouting abuse from one side of the table to the other.

Emmett sat on one of the chairs looking through even more records to see if there was any way he could look more into Fern, but he kept coming back with nothing. Archer was more than determined to learn the truth, no matter how many bricks walls they hit.

“I don’t understand why you simply don’t ask Fern why there is so much secrecy regarding her and her life?”

    Harriet returned a half an hour later telling me I needed to get ready, at first, I kept protesting as I thought if I’m simply staying in this room all day and only her and Archer will get to see me, what’s the point of putting any effort in? But she insisted and pulled me into the bathroom to help with my hair, telling me she had the perfect idea for my hairstyle. I could see in her eyes that she knew something but each time that I would ask, she would simply play dumb and not tell me a thing. This only leading me to question what Archer may have wanted to see her about, is this why she arrived and was so keen for me to get ready? After doing my hair and handing me some fresh clothes, she excuses herself and leaves me alone in the room with my own thoughts again. The main one which was swirling around my head was what could be happening, why was Harriet acting so shady after her meeting with Archer? Was she told of what was about to happen but not allowed to tell me for some reas

    Leaving the stuffy bedroom I have been forced to call home for a few days felt so refreshing, the halls that I had ran down when I first escaped Archer’s grip had never looked more beautiful in this moment. But one thing which didn’t stay behind in that room was the deep sexual tension between Archer and I, in some ways, it grew even more intense due to how close we had to stand due to the stupid handcuffs. I won’t deny that the more interactions that Archer and I share, the stronger the pull between us seemed to be turned up, sometimes, I’m forced to look away from him before my body does something that my brain didn’t have time to ignore. Yes, I knew he was my mate, and most would have fully mated by now, but I can’t, each time that I think about what life may be like if I fully embraced us, my mind drifts to my family and the awful acts this pack bestowed upon my mother that awful night. As we reach the top of the elegant staircase which looked down into the lobby of the pack h

    We continued to walk through the beautiful landscapes of Archer’s pack, his territory was so gigantic that there were so many fields he has yet to expand into. I was also shown around the town area of his pack, each person that we would pass all bowed but also sent me the kindest of smiles. The way all of them would address me as Luna still didn’t sit well, I knew I had allowed Archer to mark me which fully opened the gate for me to become The Dark Warrior Pack’s Luna, but I have yet to be announced. I still didn’t know if I could take on this roll, not due to my lack of experience, I would sit beside my father and watch as he handled all his Alpha tasks. After my mother passed, my father wouldn’t allow me and even Hadwin out of his sight for even a moment, it was only when Hadwin began his Alpha training, and I was allowed to join that he backed off a little. This meant I knew exactly what goes into running a pack and saw how my father sometimes failed in a few areas but was able t

    Once we had concluded our little adventure at the training grounds, Archer began to take me back in the direction of the pack house once again, letting me know it was now time for me to be put back in my cell like room. But even with that realisation in mind, I couldn’t take the smile which graced my lips off. This had been by far the best day I’ve had whilst being here, the many hours of fresh air and getting to look at the beautiful nature was all that I wanted, and getting the chance to show some of these men that pack members from my father's pack should not be underestimated was a great feeling too. Even though a tiny part of me hated to admit it, I also loved getting to spend some one-to-one time with Archer, where we weren’t either fighting or him forcing marking upon me. I truly felt as though I saw a different part of Archer which allowed us to bond that much more. As we continued down the path to the pack house, an achy sort of feeling began to spread up one of my legs,

    After the situation in the bathroom with Archer, he helped me out of the bath still without looking at my body and even organised some comfy clothes for me to change into, I was placed into bed by him with a kiss before drifting to sleep. The situation I had found myself in yesterday drifting from my mind. Waking up to the sound of two knocks on the door, I open my eyes to find Archer walking into the bedroom with a smile on his lips and fully ready to start the day. Feeling unusually tired, I turn to look at the clock and was shocked to see what time looked back at me, 4am! “Why are you waking me up at 4 in the morning?” I ask in my croaky morning voice, my brain seeming to not fully come with the world at this hour, I was still exhausted. “There is an appointment that both you and I will need to attend this morning, so you need to get up and ready, so we’ll arrive in time.” He begins to inform me but with how tired my mind was, all of his words drifted away as I slowly slipped

    Once I had gotten ready into some fresh clothes, I wonder into the bedroom to find Archer, laying down on the bed with his eyes closed, I guess he was also not used to getting up at this time. With a smile, I walk over and poke him gently in the head to see if he was simply resting his eyes or had fallen asleep whilst waiting for me. “Wakey wakey Mr Alpha, I thought we had an important appointment we needed to attend.” I smile still continuing to poke the side of his head, but suddenly, arms wrap around my waist, and I’m pulled towards him. Rolling me over so I was now laying beside Archer, he snuggles into my neck with that same devilish smirk on his lips. For a moment, I was a little discombobulated, not a second ago, I was on my feet but now I’m laying in bed snuggled up as though it was time for sleep. “Allow me to lay here for a moment with your scent.” He grumbles into my neck as I lay there staring at him, instinctively, my hand began to slowly run through his silky hair,

    It was as though my brain couldn’t quite comprehend what it was seeing and who it was seeing all at the same time, my feet causing me to come to an abrupt halt as Hadwin and I locked eyes. Such shock filling my face but on his, such happiness and relief now he had seen me in the flesh once again. Tears pricked my eyes the longer that I would look at him, I had sort of accepted in my mind that I may never get to see him or my father ever again, as much as it caused such pain to spread through me, I knew I couldn’t dwell on those feelings. But now he was stood only a few feet away from me, the hurt that I once felt came right back. I slowly turn my head to look over at Archer, who was already staring down at me as like he knew what was going around my mind. With a silent nod of his head giving me permission, I waste no time, bolting away from Archer and his men and into my older brothers open arms, who picked me up and held me so tightly. Even the regular smell of my brother allowed

    Walking back through the much lighter woods due to the sun fully rising, a very different feeling spread throughout my body than last time. Before, I didn’t have any idea where we were going or why we were going there, I assumed it would be to meet some people that Archer knew and wanted to introduce me as his mate, not my own brother! I had been so worried about my family since I left, I have seen first hand the dynamic between my father and Hadwin, there have been so many times I’ve had to jump in the middle before a huge physical altercation began to break out between the pair. I had worried that now I wasn’t there to be the referee, that one of them would step out of line and a huge fight would occur and with both of their mentalities, I knew neither would back down until it was too late and one of them was killed. But now I had seen Hadwin and knew that he was doing okay without me, it was as though I could let out a breath of fresh air and relax a little. Well until my fathe

    It was as though we were both frozen in place as we stare back at each other, the water around us flowing by our feet and the shouts of Archer’s orders to return in my mind seemed to fade away as he and I continued with our eye contact. I was much too overcome with shock at who I was seeing and for him, he was shocked that someone else had learned the location of this secret bunker and joined him down here. “FERN!” Archer’s loud shout now not in my mind rumbles from the entrance of the bunker and traveled down the halls, the water seeming to rush as the power of his voice rippled through the tide. This seems to snap Darren from his trance where he steps forward in a panic and throws me out of the way, my body and head smacking into the walls of the tunnel and landing with a scream and a splash on the bottom. Instantly, I’m covered in the most freezing waters I have felt which sent a shock wave through my body, my scream only alerting those at the surface that much more. Now I wa

    None of us moved or even spoke a single word as we looked down at the little hole in front of us, the more I would look, the more lost I became due to how pitch black the hole was. With a closer look, I spot there were a set of metal stairs dug into the wall of the bunker allowing one person at a time to walk down there. “By the looks of it, it seems as though it’s a rather tight fit.” Emmett said who was still standing over the deep hole looking down, but his comment does snap me out of my thoughts and allowed me to walk forward to see for myself. “It’s clear none of you will be able to fit down there but I think I will.” I say looking into the deep hole where I couldn’t even see the bottom, who knows what could be down there, it’s been deserted for maybe twenty years, what if other things have claimed it as theirs? “I am not allowing you to travel down there alone, we do not know what could be waiting for you at the bottom.” Archer tells me taking my hand as though I was going

    With the map tightly in my hand, I lead all the guys over to where I predicted this bunker to be hidden. Archer walked beside me with his hand tightly clutching onto mine, Emmett stood beside him with a shovel in case we would need to dig it out and my family stood beside me. We all saw the confused or surprised stares from the many pack members we would pass, it was common knowledge especially, after I came here that these two packs and Alpha’s hated each other. So now to see us all walking in a line and Emmett even holding a shovel, I knew most were coming up with some outlandish theories as to what they believed was happening. The closer that we came to the bunker, the more my brain began to try and work out what could he down there. My mother gave me hardly any information, only that this folder would give me all the answers that I needed, but as I held the contents of the folder in my arms, I was more than confused at what I found. The sound of the rushing water from the ri

    “What is?” Emmett asked who still stood beside the shelve looking through his own box, while I got to my feet and hurriedly, made my way over to him. “I remember seeing that symbol when I was sorting through everything, I had seen it on the front of some old folder deep in a mountain of paperwork. I thought it looked cool but still had a ton more paperwork to sort, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.” I explain before coming to a stop right beside Emmett to stare at the box in question, as like the time I had climbed to reach the final box when I sorted through it all, the box was right at the very top. I once again began to mentally ask myself how I was going to get the box down, now I’ve had experience with this shelve, the idea of climbing each section as though it was a set of stairs seemed like the best option. Archer seeming to know exactly what I was thinking, gets up from his chair behind his desk and swiftly, makes his way over to me. “With what happened the last time

    When that sentence left my lips, each man held a mixture of shock and confusion in their expressions, before they subsequently, looked at each other asking if they all thought the same thing, I was going crazy! Ripping the blanket from my legs, I begin to play the dream out and all my mother said to me around my mind, so I didn’t forget a thing, whilst Archer remained in his crouched position looking over at me with worry in his eyes. “What do you mean?” He asks taking my hand in his as he spoke, whilst I knew I was sounding crazy for believing it all, I knew in my heart of hearts that I had spoken to my mother, she was saying things I don’t believe my mind in that sleep state would be able to dream up. “I was speaking to mother; I know how that sounds, and you all will either say I was dreaming, or the stress of this situation is playing with my head but I’m not. I woke up laying here and none of you were with me, but mother was, I was panicked but she soon calmed me down and tol

    The sound of such intense ringing in my ears jolts me from my sleep, jumping up a little from the mini sofa which Archer keeps in his office, I come to find that I was the only person in the room. Not my family, Emmett or even Archer remained in the room with me, this not only worrying me but also angering me slightly, how dare they leave me in the room whilst they’re off gallivanting somewhere! Before I had time to boil in my anger and turn around to go and find said disrespectful men and tell them a thing or two about manners, I feel a second presence in the room with me. Such a feeling made goosebumps begin to form along my back and down my arms as though I had walked into a freezing cold freezer and my body was reacting in a way to preserve heat. But this time as I did a second scan of the room in hopes of finding the source of this off feeling, I soon find something that not only confirmed why I was feeling the way that I did but shook me deep to my core. My mother, the one

    The hours seemed to tick by ever so slowly, due to the past relationship the two packs held, it was vital that we go over each and every section of the treaty to ensure each understand the terms to prevent any confusion or anger in the years to come. I had used my powers today more than I had ever before, back at the training grounds with Archer and now when I needed to teach that disrespectful asshole a lesson. I had yet to fully grasp my powers and understand how to control them, this meant each time I used them, I was taking more and more of my energy and throwing into the sea! Now I was left sitting back in my chair forcing my eyes not to drop close as Emmett’s voice continued to read the terms out loud whilst we all followed along. “The reasoning for such a treaty was due to many factors, Alpha Cameron’s Daughter Luna Fern, now mated to Alpha Archer. But also, the growing threat from the King, this section of the treaty will not be public knowledge for obvious reasons.” Emmet

    After Archer and I had concluded the special kind of discussion, he wished us to have, he was called away to go and deal with some rouge that had been found at the edge of the border. We were both a little confused for a moment, normally, the border guards deal with rouges and only give a report to the Alpha and Luna at the end of the month detailing how many had appeared in case it becomes a problem. The guards expressed how this rouge had been saying some peculiar things, so they deemed it appropriate for the Alpha to go and speak with the rouge and find out what was happening. So, whilst Archer left to deal with some odd rouge, I went along with Emmett to his office to prepare for the peace treaty meeting we’ll be having with my family, which had already been postponed for an hour. All I could seem to do was sit on Archer’s chair, staring up at the ceiling with my mind doing many laps. I had been so overcome with an ungodly amount of rage when that man was speaking, I didn’t ta

    The longer my hands remained clenched, the more this malicious, evil and dangerous creature in front of me clawed at his throat as though his attempts were going to release the pressure. The once vibrant room seemed to grow darker with each passing second, with a freezing wind and dark invisible clouds over our heads, it was as though we were in the middle of a storm. Emmett and Archer remained either side of me, both in a state of shock as they watched me use my unearthly powers in a way none of us were expecting. “I hadn’t come across this being one of your powers through my research.” Emmett spoke watching as the man in front of us was close to passing out all together, but neither man went forward to do anything to stop it. “It’s just how I said when we first met dearest Emmett, never show anybody your full hand.” I say in my own dark and twisted voice, I had yet to use my Luna voice, but I had to imagine we were seeing a little glimmer from her in this moment.
