Cassia’s POV Cassia’s heart sank. For a moment, she’d thought he’d be able to help. “Don’t give into despair, yet, Luna,” Dr. Blake continued. Her fears must have shown on her face, which she schooled quickly. “No need to hide that you’re concerned either.” The older man added, dryly. Cassia smiled. She rather liked this Dr. Blake. “Annette said you’re twenty-one. Is that correct?” “Yes.” “And you’ve clearly been in very dangerous situations.” “Yes.” “Lycans can be a bit tricky - we knew you were one when we drew your blood the first time. Your species has bloodlines that have different rules than regular werewolves. It could be that one of these rules is what is preventing your wolf from making her appearance. Did your parents ever talk to you about why your wolf wasn’t showing up?” Cassia thought through all their many conversations as quickly as she could. This was always a source of anger for her with her parents. There were questions she asked that they refused to ans

Garrett’s POV Garrett’s aching heart grew harder to ignore the further he got from his packlands - and her. He was sickened to be leaving his mate so soon after finding her, whilst she was in such a state. Luka’s wolf gently ran into his own, playful. “Don’t worry, Garrett,” mindlinked the Beta. “Cole will take good care of her.” Garrett growled but nudged Luka’s wolf in return. Twenty wolves ran with them towards the camp where Garrett’s mate had escaped. The sound of a waterfall pounded faintly in his ears. Not much further. “If you can take anyone alive,” Garrett mindlinked the group, “do so. But remember the captives are our first priority. Be as silent as you can now until we reach the camp.” The group slowed slightly, their priority now stealth. It was an hour before dawn, stars and the waning moon still ruling the night sky, but given that their quarry were Lycan, the darkness gave Garrett’s party no advantage. He cursed to himself as he saw the river and stopped, the

Garrett’s POVGarrett braced himself as he dove back into the freezing water. He heard Luka splash in beside him, and they made their way as silently as possible towards the cove, hoping the waterfall would hide as much sound as possible and that the water would mask their scent. When they were within eyesight of the camp, both wolves sank as much of themselves as possible below the water, only the tops of their heads visible above it, their ears laid flat to make them even smaller. They saw the sentry before they reached shore, and Garrett slowed down, knowing Luka would do the same. His feet grazed the bottom of the riverbed as he slowly crept toward the shallows. The man on the shore looked across the river lazily, bored, before continuing his trek around the beach. Garrett waited until his back was turned before stealthily creeping out of the water, trusting Luka to watch for anyone else who might come along. The rocks on the beach, however, were not conducive to stealth, a

Garrett’s POVGarrett and Luka exchanged glances before once again morphing into their wolves and running back to the campsite. “What’s wrong, Lyanna?” “Markus’s wolf has gone crazy. One of the women in the silver cages is his mate. He won’t let anyone near her, and he’s hurting himself trying to get in.” Fear grasped at Garrett’s stomach. Even with all their training to learn to control their wolves, his father and the old leadership had needed to hold Garrett and Cole back when the doctors first started working on Cassia. Wolves could be… unreasonable… when their mates are in pain or in danger. “Is anyone hurt?” “A few broken bones, a nice gash to a face. Nothing serious. But he is going to hurt himself if you don’t get here!” Garrett and Luka crashed into the camp at that exact moment, and everyone visibly relaxed except for the patchy grey and white wolf clawing and biting desperately at the silver cage, whimpering and howling in agony and frustration. “Markus!” Garrett c

Cassia’s POV Cassia didn’t move, not wanting to face anyone else. All these people. She’d met people here and there, of course, but more often than not, it was just her and her parents. And now she was a Luna… there’d be a constant stream of new faces - and she was so tired. “I know this is a lot for you, Luna Cassia,” said a warm, feminine voice. Cassia nodded and sighed before turning slightly to look in the direction of the voice. Before her stood a small woman with pure white hair and dazzling bright blue eyes. She was wrinkled and clearly old… and yet, a light shone from her that made her look young - or, no, somehow ageless. Cassia found herself locked into those eyes, but they brought her a sense of calm. She knew she could trust this woman, perhaps even more than her mates. The old woman smiled at her with bright white teeth, her grin slightly lopsided. “Annette, bring me a chair, please. Luna, may I drop the titles and call you Cassia?” “Yes. Please! It’s - freaking

Cole’s POV Cole paced the bedroom whilst Annette and his mother helped Cassia shower. Sam sat on one of the couches, bouncing his knee and fiddling with a pen. Cole chuckled and walked over to sit in the big leather chair beside Sam. “So - what does the Gamma Luna bond feel like. I mean, obviously we’ve all talked about it, and I know it’s similar to a mate bond, but what does it actually feel like?” “Well,” Sam replied, stretching his legs out on the plush couch and lacing his fingers behind his head. “From what I understand, having not been mated yet, it’s a lot weaker than the mate bond. I didn’t recognise her by scent even when I could smell it, but my wolf recognised that she was important. I feel antsy when I’m not with her unless she’s with you and Garrett. And a little antsy if she’s only with one of you. Right now, it’s like… a subconscious instinct or itch. If I have to go very far from her, at least if she’s not with both of you, it’s like a mosquito bite that won

Cassia’s POV “There now, I know that feels so much better,” Cynthia, the twins’ mom, crooned as she wrapped a fluffy pink towel around Cassia, sitting her down gently on a cushioned seat with no back. Cassia was in awe of the older woman. She was a bit taller than Cassia, pleasantly plump but quite agile. There was a strength in her features that had softened but still made itself known. Cassia smiled shyly as Annette turned the water off, and Cynthia once again began brushing her hair. Wet as it was, it could almost pass for straight, and it fell nearly down to her tailbone.Cynthia and Annette had taken turns detangling it in the shower. It was a nightmare. But now the brush ran smoothly through Cassia’s mane, and Cassia breathed a sigh of relief. “I - I think that was, maybe the second or third shower I’ve ever had in my life. Although the other ones didn’t have those chairs in them.” Annette and Cynthia exchanged a look she couldn’t quite place. “Well we got the chair becaus

Cole’s POV His beta’s voice rang in his mind, “Restless Moon Pack, we are on high alert. I need all available nurses, doctors, and medics to the hospital or to the SouthWest border. Warriors to your stations for Code Red. Everyone else is to stay in their homes with doors barred until further notice.” “Stay here,” Cole ordered Sam harshly, his jaw clicking as he ran out of the room, shedding his clothes on the way. Why the fuck was Luka the one who gave those orders. His mind worked quickly. He’d feel it if Garrett was dead, so that couldn’t be it. “Luka what the fuck is going on,” he mindlinked whilst leaving the building, immediately shifting into his golden wolf. He didn’t wait for an answer as he raced into the trees, and he growled as Luka didn’t respond immediately. Finally, “we were ambushed, Cole. On our way back. They got Garrett with some damn wolfsbane in a needle before we even knew they were there. We have a prisoner, and the rest we killed, but we’ve got wounded.”
