I do not know how long we traipsed through the forest. It felt like days, but we had not even hit nightfall yet. I knew I was out of shape, but this was ridiculous. “I need a break,” I say panting to the two women. They both sigh, looking at me annoyed. “I need water,” I add hoping there was a brook close by.
Jessica led the way wordlessly towards the water. I raced around her dropping to my knees and scooping up as much water as I could. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Mandy asked as she bent down to lap up some water as well. Jessica stood there looking around us. “I do not like this,” she murmurs.
Mandy is immediately on alert standing and moving towards Jessica. “What?” she asks. “It is too quiet,” she says as Mandy listens and nods. I take more water before standing, “What does that mean?” I ask. “It means we are either about to be ambushed, or we have stumbled onto someone else’s territory,” Mandy says as she looks around as if she is spooked.
“It cannot be someone’s territory this close to us,” Mandy says. Oh Moon Goddess, please tell me we have not come back to the territory I just left, “We did not get turned around, did we? We are not on my old territory?” I whisper asking the women. Looking at me, Jessica replies, “No, that was in the opposite direction to where we are,” she says as I breathe a sigh of relief.
“Do not get too comfortable wolf-less wolf. We are about to get some company,” Mandy says to me as her and Jessica continue to scan and sniff the air. As she finished speaking, two mutts walked out of the forest smirking at us. “Well, well, well what do we have here? Three rogue females just for us to play with,” the bigger of the two says.
“You wish,” Mandy says with a scowl. “Oh, I want her,” the other wolf says. “I don’t know, I like the Alpha … she looks like she will be a challenge,” the first wolf replies. Looking to the two women, I realize they do not see me as a threat. I could run, while they fight but I know I cannot leave them. Even if I am without a wolf, I can still help in some way.
“And the wolf-less wolf. How peculiar. Where did you come from little doll? You smell fresh,” the first male observes. I do not respond and simply stare at him giving him what I hope is a fierce look. He bursts out laughing … clearly not as fierce as I had hoped. “Do not speak to her,” Jessica says taking a step towards the two male rogues. Mandy moves beside her prepared to fight with Jessica. Taking their cue, I move to Jessica’s other side ready to do what I could to help fight these rogues off.
“I love a good challenge,” the second wolf murmurs as he takes a step towards us. Before he can take another step Jessica jumps into the air her clothes shredding from her body as she tumbles with the rogue male. There are fierce growls and whimpers as they connect with one another.
Before I can focus on Jessica, the other male shifts and starts to stalk Mandy. He is bigger than her. She is not a match for him. I am afraid for her and move closer to her. She does not shift, waiting for the wolf to make his move. He takes a couple steps forward until he is almost standing in front of Mandy.
I wait to see what she is going to do. She continues to stare at the wolf, before she leaps towards him not shifting. I am confused and watch with despair as he bites into her arm before she can wrap it around his neck. Quickly shifting, she pulls her arm from his jaws and moves back starting to stalk the wolf.
She moves slowly around him, wanting to get to his back. I can see what she is trying to do, but so can the wolf. I can see him following her with his eyes, but he does not move. As she takes her chance he moves out of the way, and she tumbles with a loud thump to the ground. I am pretty sure I heard a rib crack under the pressure.
She whimpers as she moves to stand back up but before she can the wolf is there with a heavy paw on her chest. I am startled to see his wolf’s erection as he stands over her. I realize now what they meant by abuse out here. I would not let anything happen to Mandy no matter what. I move towards the wolf, behind him. He is so focused on Mandy he does not realize I am now stalking him.
He is trying to position himself so he can take Mandy. She is fighting to get out from under him but having no luck. He rolls her over and throws his weight on top of her. I needed to move quickly, or she would be violated in front of me. I move forward and pull the rogue’s tail with all my strength.
The wolf yelps and turns around on me growling fiercely. I step back not sure what I was going to do next. I take another step back as he leaps to stand in front of me. I see Mandy jump back up and leap on the rogue’s back. Forgetting me he starts shaking trying to get Mandy off him, but she is holding on for her life.
She digs her claws into his neck, slicing through his flesh. While it is not a kill bite, it is a painful death unless his wolf can heal him quickly. She digs in again and again, as the rogue growls fiercely trying to get her off him. He manages to get a hold of her scruff and pulls her from his back, tossing her against a tree.
I heard more bones break as her body slides to the ground. She is passed out from the pain. The rogue smirks as he shifts to his naked, human form. “I guess it is just you and me, now wolf-less wolf,” he says as he moves towards me.

Trigger warning – might be difficult for some to read. Does not end in rape.Carrie POV I stood there paralyzed in fear. The wolf in front of me takes a whiff. “I love that scent: fear,” he says with a smirk. He starts to reach out to me when he pauses. “Wait a minute; there was a call out a while ago for a reward if someone came across a blond rogue. She fits your description. But how did you end up with these two so quickly? Rogues do not welcome others so easily,” he considers as he starts to move around me. I say nothing, simply standing there. I can feel myself visibly shaking as he comes around to stand in front of me. His erection standing tall for all to see. “Yet here we are. You smell new enough. I wonder,” he ponders as he stares at me. “Nothing to say I cannot sample the goods, mind you. You are not pure. Someone’s runaway mate perhaps?” he asks as he steps closer. I take a step back from him starting to realize he is ser

Carrie POV He falls in front of me, reaching his hand out to me, his face a mask of fear realizing he is dying. I am frozen as I watch the man die. A man I killed. To save myself I remind myself. I feel someone’s hand on my shoulder and scream, not realizing it was Jessica. I throw myself into her arms as the horror of what almost happened overwhelms me. She smooths my hair out putting her hands on my face and looking me in the eyes. “You survived. You did it,” she reminds me over and over until I take a calming breath. “I killed him,” I say. “You did what you had to do to survive,” she replies. Nodding I was alright I look over to Mandy’s broken body and stand rushing over to her. We gently untangle her limbs and start to run our hands over her fur. As we do, she shifts into her human form. I can see that she has a broken leg and arm. I cannot tell if her wolf is strong enough to heal her. I feel tears fill my eyes, “There is no room

Carrie POV We had no idea what we were going to do or where we were going but we knew we needed to keep moving. Though we had made it this far, we did not trust that someone was not after us. We had heard various sounds throughout our journey to advise rogues were still looking for us. I had shared with Jessica and Mandy that there was an offer of a reward to whomever found me. It had terrified me but made Jessica more determined to get out of the forest. “We need to keep moving. They cannot find you or we are all dead,” Jessica says as she kept us moving forward. “What are we going to do now that we are here?” Mandy asks. This is the first she has spoken since she woke up. She was still limping, and we knew she was in pain, but she had kept up with the pace Jessica had set. “I will get a job,” I say to them both. They stop to look at me, “Doing what?” they ask with smirks. “I can work in a restaurant. I was Luna in our Pack. I

Elizabeth POV I looked between both women. Each of us has had to kill to survive. What the hell was waiting for us out here? Would we find peace? As if the Moon Goddess had heard my question, there was a loud pounding suddenly on the door. We all jumped. About to speak, a man yelled through the door. “Jasmine! Open the damn door!” he says. I mouth Jasmine to them both about to yell out when Jessica jumps up, “Sshhh, they are from my past. That asshole at the front desk called them,” she whispers. “Are they wolves?” I ask back and she shakes her head no. “So, we fight our way out of here,” Mandy whispers. “We cannot do that. We are in a human territory. They will continue to hunt us until they find us. The laws are different here,” she whispers. “Come on Jasmine, open up! The boss is willing to look the other way even though you killed his best customer,” the man on the other side of the door yells. Jessica closes her eyes

Carrie POV I freeze turning away from the voice. Is this really possible? That I have a fated mate? Someone the Moon Goddess chose for me? How could she be so cruel? I had just gotten out of a mess and now I was going to be tossed into another one. Maybe he would reject me so I could move on with my life. Assuming he would let me live. I hear shuffling around me, the men were moving to open the circle. “Mine,” I hear from behind me. Suddenly I am surrounded by the scent of chocolate and coffee. I slowly turn and my heart catches as I realize he is in fact speaking to me. But will he want me when he learns the truth? He is a perfect male. Blue eyes to lose yourself in. Dark hair trimmed short, a chiseled jaw, and muscles galore. I feel the wave of fear rolling over me. I am certain he can feel it being so close to me. He can likely hear the strain of my heartbeat. I can feel it bouncing out of my chest. He reaches a finger out to t

Carrie POV At some point I managed to fall asleep on my side facing the wall. It was a restless sleep, but it was something. The two rogues on either side of me had finally shut up. Since my eyes had opened the only sounds were the random moans from those who had been tortured. Would that be me soon, I wondered. I heard the door to my cell open and the smell of my mate hit me before he spoke. “Mate, I know you are awake,” he says to me. I hear him move closer to me, but I ignore him. I refuse to acknowledge this man. “Tell me how you came to be on my territory, and we can move forward from this,” he says as if he is trying to befriend me. I continue to ignore him simply closing my eyes feeling a tear roll down the side of my cheek. “You have to agree, I would be a terrible Alpha if I did not investigate you before I put my Pack at risk,” he says starting to get angry. I continue to lie on the bed curled up in a ball. I hear him blow out a

Jackson POV My Beta turns quickly stunned by my rage. “She will not give us anything,” he says in anger as he moves to kick the woman. I move at him, pushing him away. “When did I ever say abuse her?” I demand as I reach down to check the woman’s pulse. It is there, but not strong. I mind-link my Pack doctor to get here immediately. “Have you gone soft, Alpha?” my Beta sneers at me. I slowly turn to look at him. “Excuse me?” I ask quietly. “You found your mate and you seem to have lost your edge,” he smirks. I move closer to him, forcing him to step back into the wall, “The only thing I have lost is my Beta,” I say to him as I wrap my fingers around his neck. My Beta looks at me with shock on his face. “You cannot mean that,” he says as I look at him about to respond when the doctor rushes in with a nurse close on his heels. “What the hell happened?” the doctor asks as the male nurse leans down and checks for a pulse. He nods to the doct

Carrie POV I come awake with a gasp. I am confused as to where I am. Last I was being beaten by the Beta. There is a soft light overhead and I am lying on something soft. I am warm. I had been so cold, that I felt nothing when the Beta had beaten me. I was numb to the abuse and my silence only enraged the Beta more. At one point I passed out. His anger confused me. He said it was personal. That I would be sorry, and that they were coming for me. Could he know about my past? But how? I laid there for a few moments just taking in the sounds around me. I heard the sounds of a blood pressure machine. I heard other things among them someone was breathing beside me. I slowly turned my head to where I was hearing the sound. I find myself looking into the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. For a moment I was captured by their stare. By the scent of chocolate and coffee. As quickly as I was basking in the moment, I realized wh

The Luna's Fated Mate Chpater 123 - Two Years Later
Carrie’s POV Jessica, Mandy, and I sat watching our pups. Jessica and Mandy each had a boy. We had thought one might be a female but had a pleasant surprise when two males were born to my two best friends. Colton, Rosie’s pup and my half-brother, were playing with the boys. It was easy to see they were best friends being born so close to one another. Unless Colton was upset about something. Then his temper showed through. We were concerned and already working with him to control his anger. Even at his young age, we knew we needed to build the capacity within Colton to control himself, at all times. It was challenging for Jackson and me. Having a gifted child when I was still learning my own talents was keeping us on our toes. He was going to be more talented than me. It is incredible but we now believe that my father had enhanced his powers in some way that resulted in Colton’s talents being enhanced. The challenge of trying to anticipate
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 122 - Rosie's Pup
Carrie POV Before I can move, Christian steps forward. I see tears in the doctor’s eyes as she looks at her mate, knowing her fate. “Please, I am sorry,” she whispers as Christians looks at her with hate in his eyes. He is owed this. She almost destroyed him and the fact that she is his mate is only a cruel twist of fate. He leans forward placing his lips on hers. One solitary kiss from his mate before he reaches his hands up to her neck and snaps it as her lips rest on his. He steps back, cradling her body in his arms. I feel tears of my own rise up as I watch helplessly at our friend being forced to deal with the crappy hand he had been dealt. Without saying anything else, Christian turns and walks out of the gala event with his dead mate in his arms. Nobody spoke. They simply watched the tragic event in slow motion. As Christian exits the building, I can hear people starting to speak softly. Talking about calling it a night. Sadly, I a
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 121 - Painful Answers
Carrie POV Christian cut off the words the doctor was about to say. “Christian!” I yell wanting to hear what she had to say. Christian was determined to snap her neck. Jackson was beside him trying to unwrap his hands around her neck. My mother kept yelling for Christian to do it. “Christian stop!” I command with all my power. Many surrounding us started to drop to their knees at the wave of power that left my body. Christian dropped his hands turning his angry glare on me. The female doctor leans forward gasping for air. “Why?” Christian demands. “We need to know who Rosie’s baby’s father is, Christian,” I say to him trying to reason with him. “It is my right to destroy her,” he says with anger. “I understand but this is important,” I say to him looking to Jackson. I know he is wondering as well and wants the answers from her. I feel a sense of trepidation as I move towards the woman. My mother is struggling to get out of Josh’s hands,
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 120 - Who's Pup?
Carrie POV I block the bolts of power coming at me with my arms. It is as if my arms have become shields of steel and I simply have the intuitive awareness of how to deflect her attack. She moves closer as I step back. Taking a chance, I flip my right arm and make like I am tossing something at her. It shocks her and she stumbles backwards with a smirk, “Just testing out your powers, I see,” she says as she steps closer to me pushing a stronger wave of force at me. Before I can respond I am pushed backwards. My shoes fall off and I land on my ass. I hear Jackson yell my name, but I cannot look to him. I have to focus on the threat. She continues to stalk towards me as I crawl backwards trying to get my bearings. I am working my way towards standing when she slams into me again this time knocking me back and winding me. “If you were smart, you would stay down. As much as I want you dead, your father would never forgive me for destroying you
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 119 - Party Crashers
Jackson POV It has been a week since Carrie received the email from her mother. After a few months reprieve I had started to wonder if they would just give up. I had hoped they would give up. They were after something. I simply did not know what it was. Carrie was too independent. She could live on her own without them. She had always wanted her mother but not like this. Not this woman who had seemingly abandoned her at a young age for the greater good, as she liked to imply. We were all getting ready for the Gala event we were hosting. We had spent every waking moment well into the wee hours of the night, planning for every type of attack we could imagine. Christian had gone darker if that were possible. Now that the end was imminent, I knew he would take out the female doctor, or die trying. And that scared me. He had no fear of death. It was as if he had looked it in the face once and he was prepared to die if it meant taking out his
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 118 - Threats
Carrie POV It has been three months since we last saw my mother, brother, or his mate the female doctor. Everyone has been on intense alert since that fight. Our warriors were exhausted from all the additional training and extra shifts they have been taking to protect the Pack. Jessica has settled into her job working with Carleton for the Wolf Council. They continue to try and find leads as to where my family is but have had no luck. They are all wanted and considered dangerous. There are huge bounties on all of them. I do not want them captured. I want them dead. They are wreaking havoc with my family and my doctor is concerned the stress is impacting my ability to get pregnant. I am exhausted myself worrying about how much I have brought to Jackson’s doorstep. He continues to tell me to stop worrying. He will stand by my side regardless. But the Pack did not sign on for this either. They continue to be supportive, but I know they are

The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 117 - Long Gone
Carrie POV Jackson returned to us and shared what they learned so far. Which was not much. My mother had attempted to have Randy freed, but Jackson quickly replied, “It is out of my hands. The Wolf Council is taking him into custody, and he will be charged accordingly.”. “That is outrageous. We have neutralized the threat!” my mother exclaims. “Take it up with Carleton. He is making transfer arrangements as we speak,” Jackson says without sympathy. “Carrie you must do something to help your brother,” my mother pleads with me. Shaking my head, “I am sorry, but I cannot. He betrayed me and my Pack; had he succeeded it would have been the end of us,” I reply to her. Jackson looks at me with love and pride at my response. The rage that crosses my mother’s face surprises me, but she quickly contains it. That causes me to pause for a moment as I watch her. “You have his wolf, his powers … what more do you want?” she asks coldly. “It is not abo
The Luna's Fated Mate Chapter 116 - Uncertain
Carrie POV “Do you sincerely believe he deserves to have his wolf, after all that he has done?” my mother asks. I sit with that question. Did I think he deserved his wolf? I had not been prepared to help save him, yet I worried about him being without a wolf. A wolf was so much a part of who we were. And having been without my wolf for so long, I could easily identify with the devastation. “I do not know the answer to that question,” I respond honestly. “Well, you have time to decide,” my mother replies. “What do you mean?” I ask. “You have taken his wolf into your care; you can give it back or let the wolf go to its resting place. The choice will solely be yours,” my mother says softly. I sit back in my chair and chew my food slowly. Mandy is sitting silent listening to the conversation. “What do you think?” I ask her as she looks at me in surprise. “I think it is as your mother has said. It is your choice; your decision,” she replies.
