Alpha Avery I turn around and finally lay eyes on my beautiful mate. Her eyes are sunken in and her cheek bones are prominent. Her hair is dull but I can tell with some proper care it’ll be a beautiful chocolate brown. Those greenish, hazel eyes stand out against her gorgeous olive toned skin. My heart breaks at the sight of her burns and how thin she is, thinner than Ashley and Samantha. She is in a simple black cocktail dress, carrying a tray of o’dourves that appears to be heavy for her weak arms. I can tell she is in pain from the way she moves and it’s not from the burns. Her eyes hold a sadness to them. I casually walk closer to her and sniff her. I can smell blood. “Now can we kill him! He hurt our Luna.” “We will not get cocky and put our wolves and Luna in danger.” Spartan huffs at me and recedes to the far corner of my mind but close enough to hear what’s going on. “Excuse me miss, can you show me the way to the restroom.” I am hoping she doesn’t know who I am yet. “Of
Alpha Avery “Alpha Avery what is the meaning of this. Tell your brother to back down. She is my pack member and mine to tend to.” “Actually Alpha Jake, wolf law states it is up to her mate to tend to her.” “She has no mate.” “Actually she does, me.” “That’s not possible. You can’t take her from me, she’s mine!” “Yours? She is not your mate. The moon goddess did not bless you with this woman. I am taking her home with me now.” Suddenly several wolves shift and surround us making my warriors and Mason also shift, surrounding their Luna for protection. A wolf lunges at my warriors, but they quickly take him out. The rest freeze, waiting for orders. “I would think twice before picking a fight with me Jake.” I purposely left out his title. I know it hits his ego. Only friends and family drop the titles. “Alpha Avery, you are on my territory. Don’t come threatening me.” “Actually Jake, your territory is surrounded by my pack and Alpha Bryce’s pack. They are prepared to attack shoul
Haley The last thing I remember is carrying that heavy tray around before everything went black. My head is killing me. I blink a few times to get my vision to focus as I take in my surroundings. Alpha Jake is going to kill me for ruining the party. As my vision focuses I realize I am not at the Red Moon pack house. In a chair next to my bed is Alpha Avery. He is clutching my hand as his head rests on the bed by my knee. I slowly pull my hand away, trying not to wake him. I remove my blankets and try to stand, unfortunately I am still weak and fall to the ground. Immediately two hands are grabbing me and placing me back in the bed. “You shouldn’t do that love. You are still very weak.” “Don’t call me that.” That should be a nickname only reserved for my mate. “Sorry.” “Where am I?" “You are safe in Crescent Moon pack. Currently you are in the hospital. You have been unconscious for about week.” Suddenly the door to my room opens and a man, wearing a white coat indicating he’s
Alpha Avery It’s been five days since Haley arrived at the hospital and today she will be given the okay to finally come home. I arrive at the hospital to find Nick and Ray already visiting with Haley. It really irritates me that I can’t get any alone time with her, these pups better watch it. “We can always order them away from her,” says Spartan. “But then she would hate us. It seems they are like family to her with what they all have been through together. I am trying to gain her trust not push her away.” “I still don’t like them around our mate. She doesn’t have our mark yet.” “I know, I don’t like it either but we don’t have a choice at the moment. She seems to mother them rather than be interested in them.” “She’ll be an excellent Luna. She is strong and protective of those pups.” I lean against the doorway and watch our mate interacting with Nick and Ray. She is smiling and laughing, making my heart soar at the angelic sound. I hope she remains strong and confidant in her
Haley Crescent Moon is by far bigger than Red Moon. It even has it’s own little grocery store. The boys are excited as we drive by stores and an arcade. When we pull up to the pack house, my jaw drops. It’s grander than Red Moon’s house. It’s an antebellum style home that is two stories tall, three if you count what looks like a sun room at the very top. It has gorgeous white square shaped columns that wrap around the whole house with a wrap around porch on the first and second floor. What he calls a cottage looks more like a southern farmhouse that is two stories. These homes must cost a fortune. “Welcome to your new home. The first floor has the great room, office, dining room and kitchen with a breakfast nook. Pantry is fully stocked and there is a mud room that leads to the two car garage which already has a Jeep Wrangler and a Denali truck for your use.” The house is gorgeous. The breakfast nook area is surrounded by windows, letting in a lot of natural light. The office has F
Alpha Avery “Harrison what is wrong? I can feel Haley is frightened.” “I think she had a nightmare Alpha. She asked me to remove a chair from her room.” “She didn’t say what is wrong?” “No. She didn’t realize it, but she used her Luna tone letting us know it wasn’t up for discussion.” “Okay. If anything else happens wake me.” “Yes sir.” I look out my window towards the cottage and see her lamp is on. I can feel that she is still scared. Under the mask she wears is all her fear and at the head of that fear is Alpha Jake. I sneak out my window and quietly reach her balcony. I can see she is holding a picture frame and crying. “I’m sorry I didn’t make it to the witch on time. I miss you both, I promise to keep our secret.” “That must be a picture of her parents,” says Spartan. “I wonder who this witch is though. We don’t typically associate with witches or warlocks and what is this secret?” “Ask her tomorrow.” “Yeah that’ll go well. ‘Hey Haley, I heard you mention a witch las
Alpha Avery I chuckle at the look on my mates face. She may appear tough but I don’t know what girl can resist sweets from Mary’s bakery. I lead her into the bakery and have her and the boys order whatever they want. I watch them dig into their treats as Harrison mind links me. “Alpha?” “Yeah?” “What does the Luna smell like to you?” “Apples and cinnamon why?” “I don’t smell anything. She snuck up on me this morning, I didn’t smell her at all, I still don’t.” “That’s odd. Those girls said Haley is wolfless but I can feel her wolf too. Just for some reason she hasn’t made herself known at sixteen like everyone should.” “Don’t alert her to your curiosity. She talked about having some secret and I bet she knows she has no scent. We need to make sure she feels that it doesn’t bother us.” “Yes sir.” “Take the boys to the skate park. I want some alone time with her.” I cut the mind link just as Haley finishes her chocolate croissant. “Hey boys, we have a skate park, would you lik
Alpha Avery I rush her to the pack clinic and lay her down on a gurney for Dr. Sully to examine. “These are not deep Alpha. She may need a few stitches but she’s fine.” “Why did she pass out then?” “Her body is still weak. She appears to have gained a bit of weight since her first arrival. Her lungs sound good, which is surprising that the wolfsbane is already gone. I expected it would take longer with her not having her wolf yet.” “Her wolf is there, Spartan and I can sense her but we are not sure why she hasn’t made an appearance.” “I would say you may see Haley’s wolf soon. I bet her wolf is trying to heal her. Does she have a birthday coming up?” “I know she’ll be eighteen soon but I don’t know her exact birthday. She still hasn’t told me.” “I think when she turns eighteen her wolf will appear. Her lungs shouldn’t have healed so quickly, I am going to assume her wolf is stirring.” “Dr. Sully do you know anything about the blood red wolf?” “Ahh the cursed wolf legend. I h

Alpha Avery 10 years later…… “Daddy! Paisley!” I did as Haley asked except the moon goddess blessed me with a second chance mate when the twins turned six. It took me awhile to accept her, but she has made me happy and was so good with the twins. That is what Haley wanted. I groan as the twins burst into my room and jump on my back. I peak an eye out at them as they stare a hole into me. I can’t help but chuckle. “Daddy wake up!” I roll over, pinning them both under me and they squeal as I tickle them. “Stop Daddy, stop,” they say through their giggles. “Happy Birthday you two.” “What are we doing today,” asks Asher. “I think it’s time I took you somewhere special.” “Are you finally going to tell us about mom,” asks Alina. “Yeah sweetheart. I think it’s time you finally knew about her. Go get dressed, we needs some breakfast first.” They both rush out the door, racing each other to their rooms. I laugh at how competitive they are. Alina is so much like Haley that it makes
Alpha AveryIt’s been a week since Haley died and we are finally having her funeral. We had a mass funeral for all those that died and now we are all saying goodbye to our Luna. Many kids are heartbroken at the loss of their music teacher and asked if they could all play a piece during her funeral. I couldn’t deny them. Nick and Ray worked with all of them to be prepared for today.I am in the nursery getting the twins ready for the funeral. They are barely a month old, too young to lose their mother. Besides her eyes, Alina looks just like her mother and I am sure that likeness will only grow as she ages. Asher has Haley’s eyes, hair and skin tone but his structure looks like me.“Avery, are you ready,” asks Akila as she walks in.“I am ready as can be. Do you mind grabbing Alina.”“Of course.”Akila grabs Alina and looks at
Alpha AveryI wake to find I am sleeping in my room and and the twins are no where in sight. I begin to panic but Dr. Sully pushes me to lay down.“Easy Alpha. You are mentally exhausted and have been out for two days. You’ve been through a lot.”“Where are my pups.”“They’re in the nursery Alpha. They are okay, your brother and his mate are looking after them. I did a check up on them and they are both growing just fine.”“I need to be there for them. Haley…. I promised Haley I would be there for them.”“Alpha. Shutting yourself in the nursery with them is not being there for them. I don’t think that is what Luna would want.”I run my hands through my hair and notice the letter on the night stand. I still haven’t opened it.“I’d suggest you read that Avery. She had something to tell you, you should listen.&rdquo
Haley“Watch over them Avery. Live for me, live for them.”A tear falls as I know this is what will break the curse. The selflessness of sacrificing my life for my mates, something no other blood red wolf has done. I may never see my children again but at least I know this will save her future. I kiss Avery’s forehead before placing my lips on his.“Haley stop!”I can hear Mason getting closer, but I know he is too late. I can feel my life slipping from me into Avery. I can feel him getting warmer as I get colder. Mason reaches me just as I hear Avery’s heart beat. I gladly let the darkness consume me as Avery’s eyes flutter open.Alpha AveryI feel a warmth spread throughout my body which I find weird since I know I am dead.&n
HaleyI see Avery fighting Jake and kicking his ass. It makes my heart swell with pride. Just as Avery approaches Jake three of the wolves Mason and I were fighting change direction straight for Avery. Mason and I took out the rest and he is finishing his kill with the wolf in his teeth as I chase after the three.“Avery watch out,” I yell through the mind link, but I am too late.The three wolves all sink their teeth into Avery as he scrambles to fight them off. I tackle a wolf off of him, but it’s not enough. Jake pounces on Avery and rips his throat out. Mason attacks the other two wolves and kills them. I can see the life leave Avery and Hazel howls in pain.Mason turns his attention to Jake and we both circle him. I can see fear in his eyes as he realizes he is all alone. He tries to back away and take off into the forest
Haley It is utter chaos as we clash with the enemy. It doesn’t take any time at all for the grass to turn red as wolves lose their lives. I wish it didn’t have to be this way, I wish no lives had to be lost. I give Hazel full control and she easily pounces on wolf after wolf, killing each one as we go. Spartan hasn’t left our side and seems very in sync with Hazel as they fight together. I feel Spartan is distressed about something and we see Axel take off towards the cottage. I look in it’s direction and see it’s on fire. I panic and sprint off towards the cottage with Spartan on my heels. I try to mind link the boys. “Nick? Ray?” Neither one of them answer me and that makes me panic even more. As we come up in view of the cottage I see Mason carrying Akila off towards the pack house. The house is engulfed and I howl at the moon. “Haley,” I hear Nick through the mind link. “Where are you?” “The twins are fine, they are safe. We had to flee to the pack house. How is Akila?” “I
AkilaViolet and I can hear the howling turn into snarls and we know the battle has begun. Violet is nervous, it’s been awhile since she has had to fight. Along with using the protective spell in the field where the battle has taken place, I did one around the cottage as well. I know the witches will be coming for me and Alina. Nick rushes into the room and locks the door.“What’s wrong Nick?”“The traitor is in the cottage. I think it’s Henry or maybe both of them.”“What do we do?”“Ray and I are going to confront them and take whoever we need out. Do not open this door for anyone. I am leaving the key with you so no one can get it.”Just as quickly as he came, he left. I lock the door and I pray to the moon goddess the boys will be alright.NickAs soon as Avery told us
Alpha AveryThe next morning it is eerily quiet. There are no birds singing and the sun isn’t out due to the overcast sky. There is even light rain here and there. Mason has wolves doing another perimeter check as well as checking to ensure the bunkers are sealed tight. Red Moon and their allies have been arriving throughout the night last night, setting up camp about seven hundred yards from my west and northern borders.Every wolf is getting last minute sparing in and choosing weapons for those who prefer to fight in their human form. I look over and see Akila using a wet stone, sharpening a sword.“You know how to use that thing?”“Yes. I wanted to be well versed in a weapon along with my martial arts skills. Using magic is a last resort since it drains me and could leave me vulnerable.”“I may have to put you in charge of training my men,” I
