Let me know what you think! I love to hear your thoughts. It always make me happy to see you passionate. sometimes it inspires me to change the story slightly.
Kai’s pov I carried my mother’s body to Elder Benjamin and placed it on a large table. “I will take care of Luna Asuka,” he said. “I’m glad the Remington-line lives on in you. You will make an excellent Alpha, like your father.” I growled, “no, because unlike my father, I won’t trust a monster like Norman to be my Beta. I won’t trust anyone to lead this pack with me.” Moon stood behind me in silence. Elder Benjamin nodded, “I understand, Alpha Raider, but I do hope that you’ll find someone to assist you. It can be lonely at the top.” “I didn’t ask your advice, Elder Benjamin. Please, just take care of my mother.” I walked out, scared I would take my anger out on Elder Benjamin if I didn’t leave. Who was he to tell me how to run my pack? I had just gotten it back. “Well, maybe start by actually leading it. You’ve spent the day mourning your mother, but the pack awaits your response to the attack. Some might not even know you’re alive yet.” Ronin said. He was right, I needed to
So, I felt bad, for once again messing up names. So you get a free chapter. I'll pay more attention to it in the future. I just have a lot of stuff going on and sometimes I have trouble with names. But I hate it, just as much as you do. Or even more. Hope you like this chapter. It's from Ronin's pov and it gives you a brief summary of why Moon was just sitting there. Ronin’s pov Fucking Raider Kaito Remington. I know he has gone through a lot, hell, I was here for most of it. But he is being selfish and pushing everyone away. It shouldn’t be this hard. Angela and I finally are able to talk, now that they’ve marked each other. But even before we could talk, we loved each other. We are two half of a whole and I don’t get why humans have to make it so damn difficult all the time. Pack politics, lies? Just kill whoever is bothering you and go live your stupid lives. Let me have my love. Angela is amazing. She is smart, strong and one hell of a fighter. And her white fur? It’s fucking
Moon’s pov I took a long and hot shower. The water and soap burned my skin where Norman had scratched me. Motherfucker with his silver nails. “Maybe you shouldn’t call him motherfucker, since he literally fucked your mother.” Angela pointed out. Gross. I hated that my mother had been in that loveless relationshop with Norman. I was not one to talk. Me and my mate weren’t actually getting along either. I didn't know what we were and if we would ever figure it out. “Yeah, about that. Ronin is angry, no, angry doesn’t cut it. He is furious with Kai and he is not coming out for quite some time. Did you realize you spent hours in that chair?” “No, I didn’t. I mean maybe two hours, but the staff was ignoring me and I really didn’t want to cause a scene. So I waited for Kai to finish.” “You sat there for six hours and then you spent the entire night in that chair.” “Didn’t I just take a nap?” I said confused. “It hadn’t been that long? Ronin just came by. I don’t know what is going on.
Moon’s pov We walked to where my grandpa’s body was being kept, with Alpha Oskar saying barely a word. I remembered how sad and shocked I felt, seeing the state of his body. I wasn’t looking forward to seeing it again. They had cleaned him, removed the blood, but it was still a disfigured and blackened corps. “So we will need a closed casket, I suppose,” was the only thing Alpha Oskar said when he saw his father’s body. I had to hold myself back from growling. Maybe Alpha Oskar wasn’t one to show his emotions. “I am truly grateful for the time I had with your father. He had been a great ally to us and he showed me so much love in so little time.” I said, looking down at his body. “He was weak. He should have thought of our pack. He spent so much effort and resources into keeping an eye on you and your mother. He certainly should not have offered to help and given his life for you all. But I guess, I should thank you. Because I can do things differently now.” Okay, I wasn’t hold
Kai’s pov’ “She is not my woman. She is an Alpha and should be treated accordingly. I understand you might have had a difficult relationship with Alpha Boden, but Alpha Moon is not to blame for his decisions.” Alpha Oskar rolled his eyes, “she looks exactly like her mother and I have no doubt she has her personality too. My youngest sister could wrap anyone around her little finger. My father was a different father to her, than he was to me. I had responsibilities and she had fun.” “Freya’s life wasn’t easy. She never got to live with her true mate, because Norman used magic to make her think she was his. They had a loveless relationship and she died by the hand of her daughter. I wouldn’t envy your sister’s life.” Alpha Oskar shrugged, “we all have our cross to bear. Will you make her your Luna?” “Not that it’s any of your business, but no. She will not be my Luna. Like I said, she’s not mine.” “Too bad, a woman like her could use a strong man to show her where her place is. A f
Moon’s pov “Actions speak louder than words.” I really hoped Kai wasn’t full of shit when he apologized. Honestly, he acted a lot like Kai did before he believed me. And I hated it. It wasn’t even that long ago, but I really thought we were different now. That we moved past that and that Kai had stopped hating me. But the way he was acting, told me something different. I know, losing people can be hard. But would Kai go back to being a dick, every time something difficult happened? Where was that sweet man I spent the night with? The one who wanted to try and find a way to be together? “Alpha Moon? Could you come to the hospital please?” Mary mindlinked me. I had told Mary to go home, but she refused. I didn’t want her hanging around me and Kai though, if she saw how he behaved she would want to beat him up and that wouldn’t end well. Mostly, because I would help her and we’d probably kill Kai together. Not a great way to start an alliance between the Wolvin pack and the Crimson M
Kai’s pov Fucking hell, did Moon look good. Did she do this on purpose? Was this a way to seduce me? No, probably not, since she asked me not tto make fun of the dress. Also, because she was still pissed at me, I could feel it through the bond. I did deserve it, I had been acting like a dick. I just didn’t know what to do. Part of me wanted to push Moon away, to make sure we wouldn’t be hurt. How could this work? We were two alpha’s that lived in two very different packs. If she still lived in the old rogue territory, it wouldn’t have been easier to travel back and forth. But my stupid ass had recommended she move to Alpha Malcom’s territory. In hindsight it was her best option, Alpha Malcom had always had her back, even when he didn’t know who she was. But it did makes things more difficult now. Ronin wasn’t talking to me, so I couldn’t ask him for advice. This whole thing was fucked up. I was upset about my mother being dead, my father being dead, fuck, my entire family was gone
Moon’s pov I felt bad for Ulric. I didn't know the man, but I didn't want him to die. I had hoped to get more answers from him. And I was sure his answer wouldn't be, that my granddad left his pack to me. That would be crazy, even if Angela and Kai didn't seem to think so. “But we’re mates. And we are marked. I have no idea what happens to marked mates that live apart.” Kai said. “It’s not good to be apart from your mate, especially for me and Ronin. We need each other close, now that we’re marked. You and I will both be stronger if our mate is close and long absences can slowly drive us mad. If we’re apart for years, we’ll become feral and try to take over control of you. And will seek out our mates by any means necessary.” Angela said. Yeah, I wasn’t going to tell Kai that. I had already forced him to mark me and despite Kai being so nice, I wasn’t sure what he wanted from me. “Angela says it’s not healthy to be apart for too long. So we visit? Like friends?” Moon said. “Friend
Moon’s pov- ONE YEAR LATER -"Luna?""Luna Moon?"I kept forgetting that I was now Luna."Yes?" 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
Moon’s pov"Breathe, breathe through the contractions." The midwife said."You fucking breathe." I replied, getting sick of hearing her voice."I’m sorry." 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
Moon’s pov"So you’re going to Alpha Paul now to pay him back?" I mindlinked Kai."No, well, I wanted to kill him, but I will try another way first.""And you’re taking Darius with you?" 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. No one would travel this road this late at night, so I wasn’t worried someone else migh
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
Kai’s pov"So, you followed my advice?" Moon said, looking at Mary’s mark during breakfast.If Mary could blush, she would. 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. He would probably tell me and Hudson everything later.Diego kissed Mary, and I gave Moon a good kiss before they left.Diego sighed, "I want Maria here, todo el tiemp [all the time]. Alfa Raider, cómo se hace esto? [Alpha Raider, how do you do this?]"I didn’t really understand that last part because it was in fucking Spanish, but I did know how he felt. "It’s fucking hard being away from Moon."Beta Hudson and his family came down for breakfast after Moon and Mary left, and it made me realize even mor
