(A/N: Hi guys! I apologize for not updating earlier, but I was dealing with a migraine. Because of this, I will be posting another chapter later today! I hope you enjoy it!)Naomi One month after leaving and Daisy still hasn't spoken to me. I'm not sure if she's awake or not but I know she's in there somewhere. The longer she's gone, the more feral I become especially without a pack. Pushing her does nothing though so I can only do what I have to do to survive. Crossing into another pack's territory isn't something I meant to do. Sniffing the ground and losing track of where I was is all my fault too. "Look, Grace, look! A trespassing rouge!" I snap my head up and see a patrol of wolves, three fully grown mentors with three trainees. I let out a defensive growl and back away while they approach me. They start to circle me and return my growl. "What are you doing on our territory, rouge?" The wolf named Grace asks. I lower my ears and glare at the wolves. I haven't seen any pack wo
Aiden Everything Naomi says pisses me off more and more. How can anyone treat another person that way? What kind of pack was she in? When she kisses my fist and looks into my eyes though, I melt and just want to hold her close. She's nothing like Rosie and that makes everything better. As we make it to my home, everyone stops and stares at us. Naomi tenses and starts to growl lowly. I can tell she's unsure of this but I take her hand and squeeze it gently. "It's ok," I whisper and she looks at me. "They're just curious. I'll let everyone know who you are later. For now... are you hungry?" Naomi watches me before looking around nervously. She's only being defensive and I don't blame her at all. "Yes, a little." She says and I start to lead her to the mess hall. No one is eating at this hour so she won't need to be wary of people there. I walk inside and motion for her to follow. "Do you like sandwiches?" Naomi tilts her head and nods. "Great! It's the only thing I can make." I grin
Daisy When I open my eyes, I stare up at the ceiling. "..." I don't register where I am but I know that I failed. I touch one of my wrists and can feel the scar I left but it had long healed. 'Hey there, Daisy.' I hear Naomi's voice in my head but I don't respond. 'I'm glad you're awake! I was so worried about you!' I feel a pang of guilt when she says this. "I'm sorry..." I whisper and close my eyes again. I still feel dreadful mentally and physically. "I'm so sorry... I'm so useless..." I tremble and curl up. I never realized how depressed I was until Jim dismissed me. I felt that it was my only way out at the time. I didn't think of Naomi. 'Hey now! You're not useless at all.' Naomi tells me in a firm tone. 'You were beaten down so much and you finally snapped. We're out of that place now so you don't have to worry.' I feel relieved but only for a second. "Wait... then where are we?" Panic makes my heart pound in my chest. "Naomi what did you...?" Suddenly I feel my stomach
Aiden Daisy's pregnant with someone else's pup. I'm beyond enraged but not at her. I can tell based on her mannerisms that she's telling the truth and that this was forced on her. Seeing her sob breaks my heart because I know she must be hurting so much. When I take her hand, she flinches and looks up at me. She's so afraid of being rejected and tossed aside again. I wish I could erase her past so she didn't have to suffer so much. "I'm not mad at you," I assure her first and kiss the back of her hand. "This isn't your fault. Everything that happened to you was never your fault. I will be here with you every step of the way. Whatever you decide... I'll respect your decision and even help you raise it." Every word is sincere. Whether or not she gets rid of the pup or not, I have no reason to judge her. Daisy sniffles and rubs her eyes. "W-why... why are you being so nice to me...?" She asks and her tone breaks my heart. She's so submissive and beaten down. Even like this though I
Daisy I follow Aiden as he shows me around his pack. I can see the pride in his eyes and none of it is arrogance which I certainly find charming. After being around so many men with such big egos, this is a nice change of pace. While meeting many pack members, I do feel nervous and jumpy around them but Aiden protects me and merely introduces them to me. Everyone seems to know I'm his mate but they don't call me 'Luna'. At first, I think this is because of how weak I am and I feel down on myself. It's only when an omega named Violet starts to call me 'Luna' do I find out otherwise. Under Aiden's hard stare, she corrects herself by calling me Daisy and dismisses herself. Seeing my puzzled look, Aiden hesitates before speaking. "I don't want you to feel pressured when you haven't accepted me yet." He admits. "So I asked everyone not to call you Luna in the meantime. You are still a high rank but... you know. Not until you're ready." I blush as I feel flattered by his consideration
Daisy Zoey takes me into a room and looks back to Aiden. "Alpha, stay out. You'll make me uncomfortable being in a small room like this." She says rather bluntly. Aiden bites his lip and looks at me before nodding. "Of course. I'll be right outside if you need me." He then leaves the room and me alone with Zoey. She sets her pup down and sits in a chair motioning for me to do the same. After I sit in the chair in front of her, Zoey looks me over for a long while. I start to feel uncomfortable and shift around. What is she trying to see in me? After some time, her hard stare softens. "You've been through a lot. I can tell." Zoey says and leans back. "Beaten and looked down on... you have the air of a submissive and timid wolf but not because you chose to be." I flinch at her observation but she continues. "I was where you were at too though I was never a pack wolf like you. Surrounded by those stronger than me and forced to do things I never wanted to do either." Her brown eyes ha
Tristian ~Two Years Later~ "Congratulations! Our Luna appears to be two months pregnant." I can still hear Jim's excited announcement to us ringing in my ears and see Dahlia's stunned silence. "Because you're carrying an Alpha's pup, you'll give birth in about five months. I will get you some vitamins and a write-out on what you should and shouldn't eat." Jim continued at the time and it sunk in from there. I was going to be a father. My heir could be born soon if it ended up being a boy. I took Dahlia's hand at the time and we said nothing to each other. We only kissed one another and felt that close once again. Thinking back on it now, everything seemed to have fallen into place. We started to fix up a room for the pup and announced the news to the pack. Everyone was excited for us... well, all except one person: Samuel. When I met his eyes that day, I could see the hatred behind his cold stare and knew he had zero respect for me after what happened with Daisy. Many of the Omeg
Samuel I was always told the same thing by all the bullies in the pack: I was just an abandoned child hated by my parents. Moonlight Pack took me in and raised me or so they like to claim but it was the Omegas who raised me. With no way of raising my rank, I remained an Omega. The bullies got to me even if I tried to act tough. When I did cry I was all alone... until she reached out a hand to me. From the moment I met Daisy, I wanted to protect her. She was like a big sister to me back then but grew into my first crush quickly. What can I say? She was a lovely girl who cared so much about others while also being beaten down. I never understood why she was targeted so much. Should I be the lowest ranked? I had no family after all while she did. That thought was naive though as they never saw her as family. I could do nothing but watch as she was broken down and bullied. I wanted to help her so bad but I had no power and no one took me seriously. I wonder if they would have if they
Samuel I don't know if I'm being brave or stupid. Trailing behind the pack to speak with the man who hurt me more than anyone ever has... I hope it's the right decision. We do need to talk but I've never felt ready to. Being apart for so long helped me get out of talking but this isn't healthy. Eventually, we stop and watch as our pack continues ahead. I look at Peter now and see his eyes darting around. Is he nervous? That's what he used to do when he was antsy about something. Funny how he still has that little tick of his. I let out a faint laugh. I never realized how much I knew Peter without trying. We were friends for so long... how did things turn out this way? So many things went wrong between us all because of that night. I don't even know what happened to me since I've never gone into a heated state again. I take a deep breath. "Now are you going to explain yourself?" I ask looking to the side at Peter. "I've come to terms with the pain you've caused me... but I still wa
Peter "Today, we will be heading home!" Aiden announces to the pack. "I would like to thank everyone in Royal Pack for your hospitality." He dips his head to Xander. "Thank you for allowing us to stay while my pup was injured." Xander smiles and nods. "Of course. Thank you for helping with the war." Next to him is his male Beta as Carmen left alongside their pack healer a few nights ago. The only one who seems to know the reason is the Alpha King himself and since it has nothing to do with Crimson Moon, I don't care enough to ask. Aiden nods and motions for us to follow. "Come along. We have a long road ahead." He says and with that, we're on the move. Since we have pups with us, we can move as quickly as we want so it'll take an extra couple of days. As we walk, my eyes wander over to Samuel who is holding our pup. After learning Hazel and Zoey were mates, hope swelled my heart. Maybe we could start anew and put the past behind us. This is the chance I've been waiting for. Howev
Tristian The war doesn't last long at all. Without Trent's leadership, the rogues devolved and scattered after the second fight. It may take years for another large group of rogues to band together and even longer for a powerful wolf to take them over. With how Moonlight Pack must be now... they will scatter too without any leadership. Of course, I can't call myself a leader as it is. As my wounds healed, I knew it only meant my time here was coming to an end. I silently cursed my Alpha blood for making them heal faster and dreaded what was to come. Xander only allowed me to stay because I saved Leah but only until my wounds healed completely. Soon I'll be all left alone and it will truly be all my fault. Regretting it all doesn't change anything though. I tried to speak to Daisy and apologize but she didn't accept it. She barely let me speak before she lashed out but it was what I deserved. The more she talked down on me, the more I agreed with every word. "You want to apologize
Skylar The battle didn't bother me when it happened. The other kids were scared and Ebony especially was terrified too. However, when I looked out and saw Moonlight pack members fighting alongside rogues, I could only think of one thing: it figures. Nothing they do surprises me anymore. The way I see it, none of them are worth anything at all. Seeing how other packs are opened my eyes to just how dysfunctional Moonlight is... or rather was. Knowing that they're nothing more than a band of rogues left out in the elements brings me so much joy. They've finally gotten what they deserve! The only ones that are worth caring about are already here: the Omegas who were powerless against the rest of the pack and the former Gammas. I did worry about Grayson fighting when I looked over at Rina and their pup but he's also an amazing fighter so when the battle was over and he came over to check on his family, it was just a sure thing. Now I have to worry about my little siblings instead. I lo
Tristian When I wake up, the first thing I notice is the pain I'm in. I've never felt anything like this before like my body has been ripped open. I let out a small whimper and try to move but it only makes things worse. "Tristian?" A sweet voice calls out to me and my nose is filled with the scent of lavender and mint so I open my eyes. I meet doe-like eyes and lift my head. 'Leah...?' Pain rips through me and I let out a small whine. She pats the top of my head and if I didn't hurt so much, I'd be wagging my tail. 'What happened to...!' Then memories of the battle come back to me. I immediately start sniffing her trying to see if she smells of blood. 'Are you alright?!' Irrational panic runs through me. Leah bites her lip and nods. "Yes... I'm ok." She frowns but then continues to speak. "... Why, Tristian?" I tilt my head feeling confused. "Why did you... protect me? Why didn't you run away? Why?" She sounds so frustrated. Why is she asking me that? Shouldn't it be obvious?
Leah As I sit next to the unconscious former Alpha, my anxiety gets stronger with each passing hour. Thanks to my wolf, he was out of danger and would recover. That's not what I'm nervous about at all. I want to know why he did what he did for me. I want to hear it from him. Before I alert Xander to tell him he is awake... I needed answers. *** ~During the Battle~ Getting an alert of a rogue attack gets me on edge. As a doctor, all I can think of is my pack members getting injured. No amount of preparation makes these things easier. "What's wrong?" Tristian asks worriedly. I came down here to give him his meal and leave yet I lingered here to chat. Something about Tristian calms me down when I should be on edge since he is one of the main factors in this war we're in. Yet I can't bring myself to hate his stupid but handsome face. "I'm sorry but I have to go! They're attacking the pack while everyone is gone!" I turn away knowing I'm needed up there. "You'll be safe here s
Silas ~Dream~ Running free is the dream of every wolf. Fresh air going into our lungs, wind blowing through our fur, moonlight lighting our way... it's just what every wolf hopes they can do. To make it better, their mate would be running by their side their furs brushing against one another, and love pushing them forward. Yet as I run, the air is stale and chilly. The forest around me is dark and suffocating. As I run, I'm lost and alone with no mate to be found. I already ruined everything with Naomi. No matter how much I yearn for or plead with her, she won't come to my side. I made a huge mistake trusting and loving Sunny. I was blinded just as Tristian was to Dahlia. Now I'm doomed to live forever alone. Soon I'll be a lonely rogue and lose my mind completely but haven't I already? All I can think of is Naomi. I can't get passed it. I haven't tried very hard but how can I? She was my perfect mate. She could have been an amazing Luna who would have elevated Moonlight Pack to
Daisy The moment we enter Royal Pack's base, the sound of growls and yelps makes my ears ring. I stand there stunned at the fight that awaits us. Most of the wolves here are rogues but I do catch sight of some familiar Moonlight Pack members as well. How can they go along with this? Why have they fallen so far? I clench my fists. It's like none of them have brains of their own. They deserve whatever they get once they become a scattered bunch of rogues. "Stay safe, love," Aiden says before rushing off after Xander. Looks like they'll be fighting together... no one will stand a chance against them! I quickly shift into my wolf form my paws itching for some action. Hopefully, I'll be able to find Dahlia in this mess! 'Daisy!' Anna's voice rings in my head before I can jump into battle. 'I need you to help me protect the pups!' I dig my nails into the ground before I take off following Anna's scent. While I'd love to fight some nasty rogues, protecting the pups is more important. The
Zoey Defending the pups is a no-brainer for me. I was trained as a warrior and continued my studies even after coming to Royal Pack. Doctor Leah told me having a schedule and continuing down the path I was before would help me with my lost memory. Too bad it didn't come back sooner. Luckily, my wolf is larger than most she-wolves though I don't match up to Luna Queen Anna. Her gray and white wolf form is built with power which is why she is also perfect for protecting the pups. No one will be able to harm them with the two of us here especially when our pups are in the mix. The thought of any of these bastards getting close to Ebony makes my blood boil. We are outnumbered by a lot. All we can do is hold the rogue and Moonlight scum off until the others show up. I can tell the others are getting tired but then a loud howl echoes the clearing. Anna perks up. 'Xander!' She yips in joy hearing her mate. Must be nice! As the reinforcements rush in, I let out a sigh of relief. Now I kno
