Moon’s pov

Racheal ran after Tabitha and grabbed her arm, “get the hell back here.”

Tabitha turned around and tried to pull out of Racheal’s hold.

She grabbed something from her bag with her free hand and started to whisper. A small flame appeared in the palm of her hand.

“I will burn down your entire camp, you damn animal. Let me go. I told you, it’s too dangerous.”

I growled, no one calls us animals.

“Burn it. We have to leave soon anyway.”

Suddenly, Tabitha stopped moving, surprised by my response. She closed her palm, and the flame disappeared.

“Why?”

“Why what?!” I scoffed.

Tabitha got her bitchiness back, “You fool. Why do you need to leave?”

“There are several packs that want this land, including my old pack. Apparently there is silver in the mountains.”

Tabitha seemed to think about this and asked me another question. “Why did Helena want you?”

I shook my head, “she didn’t. She only did this to help a man. She even told the man it would cost him his soul and it wou

    Kai’s pov Fuck. How was I going to explain to my parents and the rest of the guest, who Alpha Moon was. It was a good thing that I distracted everyone, so Mona could leave. Even if I did it to protect her, which made me feel disgusted by myself. Maybe it was Ronin’s influence. “Don’t blame me. But thank you for helping her.” Thank you? I think that was the first nice thing Ronin had said in years. When we couldn’t find Mona, me and my parents went to talk to Alpha Paul. I really needed to find a quiet place to tell them about Mona now, before they found out on their own. “Did you see her? I can’t believe the nerve she has.” he said. I shook my head, no, hoping he wouldn’t tell them more. “Actually, Alpha Paul. Could I borrow your office for a moment? I need to tell my parents something about Alpha Moon.” Alpha Paul seemed to get what I was saying and he walked with us to his office. I wanted to tell my parents first, I would tell Beta Norman later. I didn’t know how I was going

    Kai’s pov “You killed our Gamma?! What the hell is going on with you.” Dad shouted, standing in front of my bed. After killing Matias, I showered and laid down next to Clara. I had barely fallen asleep when dad entered my room, without knocking I must add. Clara was staring at my dad in shock, hiding herself under the blankets. “He admitted to being blackmailed by Mona too. But he actually had sex her.” I said, with no emotion. “We could have handled this together. I am the Alpha, Raider. Not you.” Dad growled. I shrugged, “sorry, Ronin lost control. But you would have killed him anyway.” Dad shook his head, clearly disappointed. “You will have to go to the Wolvin Pack then in his place.” “NO!” I said, getting out of bed. “No, I don’t think that’s wise.” “You should have thought about that before killing our gamma, son. Now, when will you tell Norman about Mona?” I sighed, “today. I’ll tell Beta Norman today.” “Good. Now I have to explain to a distraught Susan why Matias was

    Moon’s pov “What happened? Why are we in the woods, Angela?” I asked my wolf. "O, you're back, Moon!" I was so confused that I started freaking out. I was in wolf form and wait, I was playing with Ronin. That is Ronin, right? What the hell was he doing here?! “Yes, it is. He remembers you.” Angela said happily. “So what happened?!” I shouted, confused as to why I was in wolf form in the middle of the night. All I remembered was everyone coming here and me giving a speech to the soldiers and their leaders. “I know it must be strange to see a mostly female pack, full with former rogues. It will take some getting used to. But I do have some rules. First of all, you might have your leaders, but in this pack, I am the Alpha. If you disrespect me, you can sleep outside of our borders with the rogues. See how long you’ll last. Secondly, this rule is as much as for you as for my own pack. You don’t enter anyone’s tent without invitation. Same goes for someone’s pants too, by the

    Kai’s povMona didn’t come home until much later. I heard her enter her tent and it smelled like blood. Blood and her sweet caramel scent.“We should check if she’s okay.” Ronin said.“We should not. She tried to kill us. Again!” I growled.Ronin laughed, clearly mocking me. “I thought you would kill her if she even breathed wrong? Wasn’t that what you promised your father?! Yet you keep her alive. Maybe you believe her, just a little.”I ignored Ronin. He was right about one thing. I had said I would kill her in case she misbehaved. If my father found out she came to my tent and tried to kill me and that I had done nothing about it, he would think I was weak. That Mona still had a hold on me.It didn’t even occur to me to kill her. I ran after her, because I thought she was trying to seduce me. Why else would she come inside my tent wearing nothing? When she shifted and ran, I wanted answers. She was alone in the woods with me, so I could have easily killed her and blamed it on a rog

    Moon’s pov Fucking Kai. I didn’t know he had such anger issues. But I couldn’t really blame him. He lost a lot, because of me and now he had to work with me. But still, if he had just tried to do things differently today, they wouldn’t have attacked him. I felt something inside when he was attacked, like this fear and Angela told me to find Kai. She knew too, that he was in over his head. Yes, he’s an Alpha. But that were still more than ten very angry rogues that all attacked him at once. We were done for today, so I let the soldiers rest and check out the camp. Maybe it was good for everyone who came here to see the Wolvin pack. We weren’t just a bunch of rogue females, there were families here, elderly, kids. We might look different, but a lot in our pack is the same as in any other pack. “I know it’s really bad timing, but Tabitha is here for you.” Racheal said, mindlinking me. I had gone to the river to wash myself. “Tell her to meet me in my tent.” I replied. I dried off,

    Kai’s pov I could have just sent someone else inside her tent. I should have. But she is the fucking leader, whether I like it or not. So after I spotted a lot of rogues near the border, I went inside her tent to alert Mona. I thought she would wake up right away, but she kept sleeping. She was sleeping naked, in the middle of the floor. I had overheard her talking to that witch. She had probably gone to sleep in wolf form and shifted back in her sleep. “Overheard? You were listening on purpose. You even moved closer so you could hear the entire conversation.” Ronin growled. The conversation confused me. It wasn’t uncommon for packs to use witches, mostly for healing or protection spells. But this witch was helping Mona remember. Was she really that good of a liar that she could fool a witch? Or did Mona pay off the witch to pretend to go along with her story, so anyone listening would think Mona was telling the truth. “Because Alpha Moon has nothing better to do than try and tric

    Moon’s pov I didn’t remember much after my speech. All I hoped was that, I would hang on long enough for the rogues to leave. If they saw me collapse, it would ruin the speech. “Well, you did say you would die for your pack.” Angela said. “I didn’t mean, right then. Like after fighting some more people.” I replied jokingly. I woke up in my tent, being covered by bandages and smelling like herbs. Tabitha had made us healing potions over the years, but I had never needed it until now. Usually my healing abilities were enough, but I was injured too badly. When I saw Racheal being attacked by that feral wolf and almost losing, I told her to go back. She refused, telling me she could handle it. But I had already lost too many people in my life, I couldn’t loose her too. That fucking feral bastard took advantage of that moment and bit into my neck. A few inches to the side and he would have ripped half my neck out. I lay in my bed, feeling fucking exhausted. I wasn’t scared of someone

    Kai’s pov “So will you finally tell me about Mona?” Clara asked me a week after I returned from the Wolvin pack. I hadn’t paid much attention to Clara. To anyone really. I focused on my training and I hunted at night, to avoid Clara. I knew she still wanted to know about Mona, but I needed time. I was still angry at myself for actually believing Mona for a second. Actually thinking she was trying to protect me and then she came up with this elaborate lie. Why would someone use a young girl to kill Kimiko and Mona’s mom? Why use Mona to seduce men and then blackmail them? There must be better people out there to use than Mona. And what the fuck was their plan anyway, because it didn’t make any sense. Probably because the whole fucking thing was a lie. “Yet, you’re thinking about it.” Ronin growled. “And you didn’t kill her. Again.” “Don’t remind me of my weakness.” I growled back. “Raider? Are you ignoring me now?” Clara asked disappointed. I still hadn't answered her question, I

I said as I turned around.A mother and her kids were standing there looking at me."Wow, you’ve gotten big." Her little girl said."Ashley! You can’t just say those things." Her mother scolded her."It’s fine. I am big. But can I tell you a secret?"Ashley nodded her little head."It’s because there are two babies inside of me.""Wow! two!" Ashley said excitedly.Her mom smiled at me, "I just wanted to thank you. Alpha Raider has been a wonderful Alpha and has handled everything on his own so well for all these years, but having a Luna is really special. We feel complete, and you both have done such wonderful things for our pack. The Crimson Crescent Pack is on its way to becoming one of the most powerful packs in the whole country, thanks to you and Alpha Raider. We’re really proud to be members."I smiled and was almost brought to tears. Stupid hormones."Thank you; that means a lot.""W

Kai said to the midwife, "She didn’t mean it like that."The hell I didn’t.The midwife smiled at us, "don’t worry, I’ve been told worse.""You know, I read somewhere that an orgasm can help with the pain." Kai suggested."An orgasm? You’re thinking about sex right now? That’s the thing that got me into this situation in the first place.""No, I didn't mean it that way, I,-""Just go hang out in the other room with Diego," I yelled, "I need to focus, and Mary will call you when the baby is almost out."Kai nodded and left the room, looking defeated."Maybe I shouldn’t try to have a baby?" Mary joked. "It looks painful, and it turns the future mother into this scary beast that even drives away alpha males.""You want out too?"Mary laughed. She wasn’t scared of me. "No, I can handle scary Moon.""So you’ve been trying to make a baby?

    Mary’s povKnowing Moon would give birth in a few months sped up the whole house's construction. Alpha Raider even jumped in to help, and Moon sent some people from our pack to assist as well.It also meant that once the house was done, which would be in a few weeks, Diego and I would start living together.I looked forward to it and was anxious at the same time. I was used to having my own room, my own space, and not having to think about another person. But falling asleep next to Diego and waking up next to him every morning would be wonderful. Knowing I could snuggle in those big, hairy arms of his would be worth giving up some of my personal space."Moon and Raider would have no issue with giving you another room. The house is big enough." Beth, my wolf, said.I didn’t need another room. Diego and I wouldn’t be spending most days together, so this would be just evenings, nights, and mornings. And days off."So plenty of time," Beth joked.I had grown a lot more comfortable around D

    Kai's pov"So are you and Maria planning on moving to our new packhouse too?" I asked Diego.He looked unsure."I mean, Mary and Moon are friends, so I kind of assumed it would have come up." I said, "You don’t fucking have to. I mean, it’s just a question.""Maria is her best friend, and soy tu mejor amigo?" said Diego, laughing.I knew what Amigo meant. "I am not your fucking best friend. We’re not in high school."He nodded his head with a stupid smirk on his face, "did you learn Spanish for your amigo?"I growled, "never fucking mind, Diego. You’re getting way too familiar anyway; I wouldn’t want to live with you again."He smiled at me despite my anger, "Maria and I would love to live in the house with you, Alpha Raider. We also talked about perhaps building our own casa in the future.""Well, mi casa es su casa, right? You and Mary are welcome to stay at the packhouse." I said, "for Moon of course. She would love it. I don't fucking care either way."Diego laughed as he walked ou

    Diego’s povI knew Maria could handle herself, but I felt this strong urge to protect her and make sure she was okay. Maria was the strongest person I know, but I felt like sometimes she tried to be even stronger and wouldn’t admit when something was wrong.I had felt nothing during our bond because I was most likely sleeping. But I did have this vivid dream of fighting people, which must have been because of Mary.Now that we’re both marked, we feel everything the other feels, and although I already knew Maria was a lot more sensitive than she looked, I hadn’t suspected to feel so much from her. She felt deeply, just like I did, but she kept them hidden by acting though."So, you want to check up on Mary, huh?" Alpha Moon teased."Por supuesto [of course], just like you went with Alpha Raider, no?"Alpha Moon laughed, "yeah. But Mary was doing her job, and my mate was being a reckless idiot. Going in alone could have gone so terribly wrong.""He was doing his job también [as well]. He

    Kai’s povA loud scream tore through the packhouse, and then there was silence. We walked down to see Luna Suzanne and Darius in the living room, hugging each other."It hurts, honey, but I’ll be okay. You matter more to me." Suzanne said to her son. We weren't needed here anymore. I wouldn't want to hang around with the person who killed my mate just a few seconds ago.I looked at Darius, and he nodded his head. I could feel his alpha aura now; the transfer was complete.We left the packhouse and walked to the car. We weren’t stopped by any guards, and the gates opened for us to pass through. Darius, sorry Alpha Darius must have told them to let us pass.Ten minutes into our ride home, Moon sighed."Kai…""I know, I’m fucking sorry.""You can’t just do these things, what if something happened?"I shrugged my shoulders, "it didn’t.""And you can’t just talk for me. That was not your secret to tell. I am a damn Alpha; I can handle my own problems. I don’t need a knight on a white horse

I asked."Yes, my Moon.""The same guy that tried to kill you literally an hour ago?"Kai laughed, "the same fucking guy. I trust him. I don’t know why, but let’s just say it’s a gut thing.""Well, I have a gut feeling too, and it says that you’re being reckless. Going inside Alpha Paul’s territory with his son. If he does kill you, it looks like you provoked it." "Alpha Paul isn’t strong or brave enough, that’s why he sent his pup to do his nasty work." Kai growled. "I’ll be fine.""Yes, you will.""What’s that supposed to mean, -" And Kai stopped as soon as he spotted Angela beside the road."I'm coming with," I mindlinked and switched back, naked beside the road.I'd been waiting for a car for about ten minutes.

    Kai’s povThe first few days were just the fucker following me around. He didn’t say much, and I was grateful; I already had a beta and a gamma who wouldn’t shut up. Diego in particular, goddess, did he even have a filter? It was like every thought he had needed to be said out loud. Even if no one could fucking understand him anyway.I showed Darius around; he watched Hudson handle the books without seeing all of our finances, and Darius watched Diego train his soldiers. I had no fucking clue what we were doing. Is this how you train a future Alpha? Or do I need to put him to work too?Alpha Paul didn’t find shit in the ground, just like we expected, but he wasn’t finished yet. He still had a few days left, and he wanted to use them all. I think he was just stalling, so we couldn’t start building yet.Or it was because on the fifth night of the idiot staying here, while I was trying to sleep, little Darius secretly snuck out of his room and into the hallway.Did the fucker really think

Goddess, she looked mortified, but it was fucking funny to see that face of hers. I wondered if they finally had sex or tried he other stuff Moon told me about. I mean, I wouldn’t fucking mind seeing my mate touch herself.I looked at Diego, "now we really need to get that land."Diego nodded, "Si."Okay, chatty catty wasn’t really in the mood to talk this morning.
