“Maybe I’m paranoid, but Ashina and Isla are taking a long time, are they not?” Thane asked, looking at the clock on the wall. We had discussed a new battle strategy and were about to go over when to attack and decided that night was the best time to catch them off guard. “It has been too long. It's been over an hour.” I tried to mind-link with Isla, then Ashina, but was unable to. It was like they were being blocked from me. I rose and headed from office and down to the kitchen. Two men lay unconscious in the destroyed space, panic overwhelmed me as I looked for her, but she wasn’t here. I grabbed the closet man and shook him. “Where is she? Where is Isla?” I yelled at him. “She… is safe with Ashina.” In shock, I dropped him. Had she betrayed us? I looked at Shaw. “Where would your mother hide someone?” He looked at me and replied, “To be honest, I barely know her, she was never around, and I don’t even know where she stays when she’s here. I’m sorry.” He was right; he spent m
After looking out the window and making sure her henchmen were not guarding the door, I left the cabin, closing the door silently behind me. I headed back up the path, careful not to make too much noise; I searched for the door into the castle and could not find it. Maybe it was a portal. I thought. “Okay, so no door now what?” I spoke to myself. “Guess we get back the old way. We can’t be too far from the castle; I can sense it.” Daciana shared. “It still could be far away.” I noted. “We will run all night if we have to. The fact that Ashina took us now means the Shadow Moon Pack is planning their next move.” I nodded in agreement and shifted. We took off running through the trees, stopping to smell the air to get a sense of what direction we needed to go in. “If that door was a portal, it would make sense that it wouldn’t be there anymore, but at the same time, what witch or witches are helping her with this?” I thought as we continued to push forward into the thick forest. “We
My brothers followed the sentinel into my office. “What’s happening at the border?” Thane asked before I could. "The Shadow Moon Pack is gathering at the northern border, we believe they are planning to attack soon, we saw their scouts and have followed their movements." “Thank you, we will need to prepare as well.” The sentinel bowed and left. I turned to my brothers, “Seems Zeeb has informed them of our plans. I bet he had Ashina take Isla as a way to distract me.” “I know you want to find Isla, but we need to know who is loyal to our pack first, we need to have the pack members swear an oath of fealty or we are putting ourselves at risk in this battle. We don’t know who Zeebs followers are.” Alec advised. “I agree, at least she is safe with Ashina. They are blood related after all.” Thane added. “Blood related or not, she is a threat. We don’t know what her plans are.” I sighed, knowing I had to focus on the upcoming battle. "Gather the pack in the dining hall. We will see wh
I ran towards the direction the howl had come from, the sounds of battle were becoming louder and louder. “I’m on my way.” Anders yelled into my head as I continued in the noise's direction. "Be safe, there is one hell of a fight going on," I informed back as I exited the trees and emerged into a clearing. Ten wolves were fighting, blood sprayed the ground, multiple wolves were unconscious, all of them were injured in varying degrees. "Don’t tell me you went to where the battle is happening?" He yelled back angrily. “A wolf cried in pain. I can’t just ignore it.” I thought back as I descended upon the battle. “You don’t know which wolves are from which pack. Just wait for me!” he yelled, I could feel his urgency in his voice as he was trying to reach me and the panic and worry that radiated through him. “How far are you from here?” I asked as I stopped, turning around and retreating back into the treeline. “Minutes away. just wait. Please.” He begged. “I can tell which wolf bel
“I’m on my way.” I yelled as we ran as fast as possible to the Northern border. "Be safe, there is one hell of a fight going on," she informed. "Don’t tell me you went to where the battle is happening?" I yelled back angrily. She wouldn’t dare get involved. “A wolf cried in pain. I can’t just ignore it.” She retorted. “Fuck, we need to go faster,” I ordered to Vilkas. “We are going as fast as we can, not to mention she isn’t some helpless she wolf she can handle herself.” “You don’t know which wolves are from which pack. Just wait for me!” I yelled, as panic and worry surged through me the dreams replaying in my head. In all of them, we had been separated, and she had been killed. “How far are you from here?” she asked. “Minutes away. just wait. Please.” I begged. “She’s not going to listen.” Vilkas shared as we jumped over some brush, “She won’t allow a pack member to be injured never has. It’s one of the things we love about her.” “I can’t lose her again.” I declared as we
As we need neared the border, the tension among the pack members increased, I could feel their emotions, their anxieties. Taking a big breath, I exhaled, the feelings clearing my mind. “Imagine what you will feel when you claim him as well.” Daciana laughed. “Bitch.” I scolded her. Unlike the males claiming bite, a female wolf claims her male by publicly claiming that he is hers and as a result a tattoo of his mates wolf appear on his bicep, if he were ever to betray her the tattoo would become poisonous and slowly kill the male wolf, just as a marked female who betrayed her mate would slowly bleed out from the bite she received from her mate. The only way to escape such a fate would be to publically reject each other and have both parties wanting the rejection. We approached the clearing from earlier along the border stood the shadow Moon Pack Alpha Kylen stood at the front facing us with his father Elder Zeeb by his side. Anders and I stood in front of our pack as they fanned out
Once the battle started, everything became a blur as blades slashed through the air, growls and cries rang throughout the field. Isla and my brothers beside me we blocked and defended heading towards Alpha Kylen and his father, I glanced over as Isla was being pushed away by three wolves, attacking her in unison she blocked and defended moving farther from me. I turned to follow as an onslaught of wolves surrounded my brothers and me, biting back the worry about her safety. I focused my attention on the enemies in front of me, blocking blows and swinging quickly, bringing down the lower ranked warriors. Looking around, I realized my brothers and Isla were nowhere to be found. I worked my way through the army blocking and dealing blows as I weaved my way through the carnage, bodies scattered the ground, some wounded, some dead, blood marked the once green field as the fighting continued. An enormous man charged at me, his lance poised to impale me, I dodged at the last second and sna
Something took over my body. Power erupted from me as the scythe flew from Elder Zeebs hand into my own, my arm swung out as Alpha Kylen seemed to appear out of nowhere stepping in front of his father, the blade sliced through his neck. He fell to the ground as Elder Zeeb stood in shock, then screamed “My son, you little bitch, you murdered my son, as he knelt holding his son's head, his Luna ran to Alpha Kylens body sobbing throwing herself at him. Behind Zeeb, the army moved to attack me. The scythe was poised again as power continued to spill out. "Leave!" an unfamiliar voice ordered as the wolves' heads snapped up and Elder Zeeb and the Luna looked at me and the others in shock. "What the hell is going on?" one of the Shadow Moon Packs wolves asked confused, "What is she?" Instead of an answer, Zeeb looked around at the wolves behind me as if gauging the situation. “This isn’t over, we will get revenge for what you have done!!” Elder Zeeb yelled as the Luna and the Shadow Moons
Something brushed against my cheek rousing me, I opened my eyes as I moved closer to Anders, resting my head on his chest, breathing in his scent. “Morning love.” “mmm” I mumbled as I reached my hand up, rubbing his neck and shoulder. He chuckled, “We can’t stay in bed all day.” I sighed, moving to stretch, “Actually, we can because you are the Alpha and can boss everyone around.” I teased. He sat up, grabbing me by the waist pulling me to him, “You know it don’t work that way, love.” “Well, it should.” I pouted as he kissed me. “If you want me up so bad then let me go, so I can get dressed.” I laughed as I pushed him away, heading to the closet and grabbing clothes. “What are the plans for today, anyway?” I asked as I pulled my jeans on. “We have to come up with a game plan. The stuff with the Shadow Moon Pack is not finished and we need to find somewhere to hide your new weapon.” I forgot I had the immortal scythe in my possession now, I barely recalled grabbing it before he
