Chapter 5: The Luna's Revenge

I had always been told how cunning witches could be, and not to trust them. Isador looks mischievous in her black flowing cape too. 

Even though I don't know what she would expect from me after helping me, I come to a conclusion that I have no other choice at this very moment. I also think of the fact that I would get two wishes when I actually came for just one. It was a win for me, really.

It was already night time by now and the humid air caused my hair to stick to my face. 

I brushed them off.

”Fine then. Let's get to it.” I say.

Isador smiles at me. 

She looks like she could have been in her mid-years but the way she spoke and her voice said something different. So it was hard to really know.

She guides me a little further into the forest until we stand before a dingy looking hut that stood on the stump of a tree, with a thatch roof and a wooden staircase leading to the front door.

It was the perfect symbolism of a witch's hut. I had read of in old archives about witches, in my pack's library.

Not only was she creepy, but her house was too. She walked in — or rather climbed in, without looking back to check if I was following her.

Due to the severity and urgency of the situation at hand, I followed her in, without having a second look on how my surroundings looked.

The smell of burning incense slammed my nose immediately I walked in, while she sat yoga style on the floor. 

I immediately sit with her. 

"I need to warn my former pack the Night Valley pack that my pack has turned on them and that they need to escape. They've already set out! Please it's an emergency." I plead with her in a rush.

Isador says nothing but bring out a map.

She spreads it out and mutter some incompressible words under her breath. She closes her eye as she does this. Midway, she opens her eyes and slits her palm. She does it mercilessly and smoothly without flinching, as though she had done done it so many times before. The blood drips on the map and stick drawings of an army shows on the map heading to the Night Valley pack. 

"The Blood Moon pack are only half an hour away from them. They are closing up on them in lightning speed. I don't know if there's much we can do at this point. What do you want to do?"

"No! We had a deal. Do something." 

Was she about to back out?

"I never said I was backing out." She says, as though reading my mind. 

“You can use your mindlink connection to speak to your brother."

I sigh defeatedly, "It got weak after I mated out of the pack."

"Then let's strengthen it." 

Isador says and interlinks her hand with mine and I feel a bolt of charge course through me, which makes me almost faint.

I suddenly feel a connection to my former pack and to my brother Dante who is Alpha.

Immediately I'm in, Alpha Dante feels me as he says, "Rose."

Dante is my twin and growing up, we had an inseparable bond. He had never really been a fan of Jacob, even though he was my mate.

I reply in an unconventional way, "Dante, yes it's me. You guys have to run."

There's a moment of hesitation then, "Okay! What is going...? How... how did you get in my..."

"Dante please you and the rest of the pack should run! Now! My pack is coming to attack yours. Jacob issued the order. He's gone mad. Please just go!" I say in a rush cutting him mid sentence as this was more important and whisper the last part as a huge lump formed in my throat and my eyes watered.

"Gather everyone now! You need to leave. You have half an hour."

"Okay. Okay. I'd do just that."

Then he begins yelling that the emergency bell should be rung. They all gather and he relays his message urging each to leave.

I am still in his mind and I hear him and what's going on there. He shouts to the remaining wolves, "We don't have much time! Go! Go!! I'll meet you soon."

Once the last set were successfully sent out, Dante's Beta and elders stood with him but he also shouts at them.

Hesitantly, they leave.

I cry out, "No! Dante please run! They'll be here any minute!" 

"I'll make sure no one is left and go too." He says to me through the link.

He runs around looking for any person who may still be around.

Just then, I see the Blood Moon pack wolves through the blood movements on the map that they were already there. 

"Shit!" Alpha Dante say.

I believe he must have heard the sound growling and snarling wolves. I begin to weep. 

"GET OUT OF THERE!!!"

But it was already too late

From where I am miles away, I am afraid at what they would do to my brother and I shake in fear. 

The wolves had shifted to their human form after seeing an empty pack. But Logan isn't the type to give up too easily. He came on an assignment and he'd deliver. Whatsoever the circumstances. His order was to slay everyone in the Night Valley pack for the curse they had brought upon the Blood Moon pack by giving the an infertile Luna.

I still can believe my mate could do this.

I urge Dante as much he could as he could, even though it might hard as he was dealing with wolves that cam pick up scents. Someone may have already caught his scent.

My heart pounds badly that it hurts. It feels like I am right there with him. 

Hot tears runs down my cheeks.

Dante is a part of me and I'd hate for anything to happen to him.

It didn't taken up to three minutes to find Alpha Dante.

Beta Logan forces Dante kneel before him, which he struggles to do and other wolves wrestle him down. I feel the energy of hatred and anger come off Dante as his wolf, an Alpha is upset to be made to kneel before lowly wolves. 

He tries to fight and without a moment's hesitation his head is cut off by Logan.

"DANTE!" I scream ad the mindlink disconnects.
