Ellie

The moment Ellie realized that it was 8:45, and she had been asleep for over six hours, she flew out the door from her bedroom into the hallway. "Shelby!" she shouted. "River! Where's Michaela!" She headed straight for the nursery, which was the next room over, and her hand was about to turn the knob on the door when River's arms came down around her.

"Hey, honey. I'm glad you're up, but why are you yelling?" her husband asked in a whisper, pulling her back. "Everything is okay. Did you have a bad dream?"

"No, I'm fine," Ellie told him, her heart still racing. "Is the baby okay?" She was still so confused.

"She's fine. She's asleep. Or… she was." He had the baby monitor clipped to his belt loop. Pulling it off, he checked it. Ellie could see for herself that Michaela was in her bed. She was a bit restless, but her mother could see her, and she was fine.

Ellie's eyebrows furrowed. "But… she can't possibly have been asleep this long," Ellie said, moving away from the nursery door

    RiverBeing away from Michaela was hard, but River had work to do. He had to continue his work as an Alpha because the rogues that they'd been sighting for weeks were being spotted more regularly now, and he was starting to get a little nervous."We saw them this morning," Andrew said while they were looking at a map in the office in the village before they went out on a patrol. "There were six of them, and they were over here." He pointed at a spot nearer the village than they had ever been. They were clearly inside of the pack territory now."Which way were they headed?" River asked, just wanting to make sure that he understood what he'd been told earlier."They were headed southeast," Andrew said. "We think they'd been even closer to the village earlier in the evening, but no one saw them until the patrol came by around five. By then, they were headed back out.""What do you think they were doing?" River couldn't quite understand what they were up to."We don't know, but they can't

    Ellie"So you're saying that they're getting closer?" Ellie asked. She was feeding Michaela cereal in her highchair. Now that the baby was getting older, she was ready for more solid foods. Ellie didn't mind feeding her other foods now that she was ready for it, though part of her was still irritated every time her child ate anything other than her own breast milk after the stunt Shelby had pulled with that formula when Michaela was younger. Her friend had thought she was helping, but it wasn't cool. Shelby was still apologizing over it all of these weeks later."Yeah, it seems like it. We've got extra patrols out there, but it does make me nervous. I just don't understand how we can't catch them," River said, sitting at the table next to them, drinking a cup of coffee. Dinner would be ready soon, but he'd come home a little early, wanting to talk to her."Well, maybe with these extra patrols, they'll be caught," Ellie said. "I mean, we've got some great Omegas. And Andrew seems h*ll

    Ellie Looking at the monitor in her hand, Ellie could hardly believe her eyes. How could it be possible that her daughter's bed was empty? Panic was rising up within her as she stared at the monitor. "This has to be a mistake," she said to herself. "This has to be an awful mistake!"Running up the stairs as fast as she could take them, Ellie flung open the nursery door. The window was wide open, the curtains blowing in the wind as the scent of smoke from the fire down the street stung her lungs. The bed was definitely empty."Michaela!" Ellie shouted, as if her baby daughter might be able to answer her. Of course, no response was heard. She realized then exactly what this was. The fire at the event center was just a distraction! Those rogues who had been hanging around her village for all of these weeks had been doing so for one reason, and only one reason.To kidnap her baby!"River!" Ellie shouted through the mind-link as she was already one her way back down the stairs and out the

    RiverLeaving the fire to run out into the night, searching for his daughter was enough to make River's heart catch in his throat. How was it possible that someone had taken his baby from her warm bed in the middle of the night?As he tore through the forest, running in the direction his wife told him she was tracking the culprits in, he tried not to think about the fact that he'd been suspecting something like this in the back of his mind for some time. Ever since the rogues started getting close to the village, he'd been wondering if they'd try a stunt like this. If he'd been able to put the pieces of the puzzle together, if he'd thought it was truly possible that they'd try to take his daughter, he would've been more vigilant. Now, he was running as fast as he could, praying that Ellie or someone else saw them soon.If they found them, they would stop them. They just had to find them."River! I see them!"Ellie's voice in his head gave him hope. River's breath stuttered. "Where?" h

    EllieThe fact that she'd jumped right over the Omega's head would buy her some time, but only a matter of seconds. He would turn around and be right after her. So… Ellie had to make those moments count. She needed to head right for the female holding her baby and attack before she had the chance to register what was happening.Ellie landed hard on the ground from her leap and ignored the searing pain that shot up her right front paw. She continued to run, registering the look of fear in the female's eyes. It was only there for a split second, but it was there long enough for Ellie to know that she had the upper hand.She aimed low, darting around for the back of the female, away from her baby. She managed to sink her teeth into the female's leg, causing her to yelp. When she did so, she had to let go of the baby blanket. Michaela tumbled to the ground, but it wasn't much of a drop. Still, the baby screamed in fear and possibly a bit of pain. Ellie considered her chances of grabbing h

    RiverSeeing Ellie fighting all of those rogues by herself was enough to make River kick himself into a gear he didn't even know that he had. But when he saw his wife carrying his daughter away to safety, he knew that everything was going to be all right, especially since the rogues were grossly outnumbered.There was just the matter of making them pay for the horrendous atrocities they had committed. Not only had they set the village event center on fire, which may have already spread to other buildings, but they'd also violated his home, stolen his daughter, and taken her off in the middle of the night.None of these wolves were walking away from this fight.Not even the huge male that was bearing down on him now.River didn't care that the male seemed to be twice his size. With the anger boiling inside of him from everything he'd seen, River lowered himself to the ground and waited for the wolf to come at him. When the large wolf's teeth snapped at him, River dodged to the side and

"Dad?" she said, looking at his familiar face. "How are you feeling?""Ellie?" he said, his voice weak. He still had an oxygen mask over his face, but all of the tubes and other wires had been removed, other than the monitor hooked up to his finger and the IV he had in his arm in case he needed more medicine. "Where's Michaela?""She's at home with River," Ellie said, giving him a reassuring smile. She wasn't sure how much of the battle he would remember. "She's perfectly fine."Her father's head rolled to the side a bit as he released a sigh of relief. "Oh, thank the Moon Goddess," he said. "I w

    EllieThe string quartet was playing a soft, slow song that seemed to make the silver stars above them twinkle even more somehow as Ellie stood admiring the scene. She'd been right. Everything had come together perfectly, and all across the dance floor, couple after couple had paired off. Her students were finding their fated mates. Alphas and Betas from packs far and wide were coming together with women that had trained in her school."Well, what do you think, beautiful?" River asked, stepping over from where he'd been speaking to another Alpha who'd come with his wife and son, who was their age and looking for a wife so he could take over the pack. "I would say this is a huge success.""Definitely," Ellie agreed. "I see so many people dancing together and falling in love.""I know," River said. "Look at Sarah and Alpha Rob over there. And Nelly and Alpha Lance."Ellie had noticed both of those couples. Sarah looked so lovely in her red dress, and Nelly in her blue one, gazing into L

    EllieThe final touches for the Moon Goddess Ball were falling into place, and Ellie couldn't believe how beautiful the event center looked. As she looked around at all of the decorations, her heart fluttered in her chest. She could only imagine how many couples might fall in love in there tonight.It hadn't been easy, getting everything ready for the event, but along with Michael, River, Shelby, and several other volunteers, Ellie had gotten it done. Not only had they put together a beautiful event center, but they'd also managed to get several Alphas and Betas from packs far and wide to commit to attending, and for the past several days, they'd been arriving. Many of them were staying in the cabins in the pack village, the same ones that the Alphas who had competed in her contest had stayed in.Ellie pushed those thoughts out of her mind. It all seemed like ancient history now. The bachelors remaining from that contest would be back that night, still looking for love, though there w

  • The Last Luna   Chapter 148: Plans

    EllieThe idea of having a Moon Goddess Ball with the women she'd been training to become Lunas was ultimately the idea behind the training to begin with, so when River came in and suggested that they have the grand opening of the new event center be just that, a Moon Goddess Ball for the women in her class, Ellie couldn't believe her ears."Do you think that's a good idea?" River asked her."No, I don't think that's a good idea," Ellie told him, watching his face fall."You don't?" River blinked a few times. It was clear he was searching for something to say that wouldn't offend her."No. I think… it's a great idea," she said, winking at him.A smile broke across his face, wide enough to match her own. "Oh, he said. Good. I was afraid you were going to tell me that it was a bad idea.""No, I definitely think we should do that," she said. "In fact, I think we should start planning it right now. When is the full moon?"River pulled his phone out of his pocket and checked the calendar.

  • The Last Luna   Chapter 147: The Event Center

    River Rebuilding after the fire wasn't easy, but it was something that brought the entire pack together. In a way, River was slightly glad, though he'd never say it out loud. Supervising the project while Michael recovered from his injuries was interesting. River invited some of the members of his own pack to come over and help. At first, it seemed like there was a bit of a divide between the two groups, but once the "outsiders" proved their value, everyone began to work smoothly together.It took quite a while to clear away the debris from the old event center. After that, they planned a new one. This one was better. It was bigger with more rooms for different events. River had the pack architect draw it out with input from several of the pack elders and other important members of the pack, including Michael, who was out of the hospital by then and staying with Ellie and River so that the pack Luna could spend as much time as possible with her dad. River knew it had really shaken El
