The first class went by quickly thankfully. After the first bell I walked over to my next lesson. I scanned the hallway for the mystery girl, but she was nowhere to be seen. I went in and sat down again towards the back of the room. As the class dragged on, I was unconsciously bouncing my knee and tapping my desk, each minute felt like an hour. I don't know what has come over me. I don't even know this girl, why am I so desperate to see her again. I was feeling anxious and nervous, like I had butterflies in my stomach. I racked my brain trying to recall the last time I was nervous enough to get butterflies, not since my first change. The lunch bell rang, and I was out the door before it had stopped. I met Cole and Smith at the cafeteria. Noticing that they were alone, a swift wave of anger flew over me.
“Well?” I demanded,
“Where is she?”
“I asked her man, but she said no” Cole

The Moon's Descendant Chapter 7 -A New Day
Gunner.I woke up feeling refreshed and excited for the day. I couldn’t wait to get to school and see Zelena. Actually, I didn’t want to wait until school. If I go to the path in the forest where we left her yesterday, she’d be bound to come past there this morning. I went for a quick shower, barely able to contain my excitement. I got out and brushed my teeth and combed my hair. I got dressed and headed downstairs. I opened the kitchen door and saw Cole and Smith both with their mouths stuffed full.“Ah there he is” Mum said with a smile.She was standing at the counter hand on hip facing the boys.“Morning Mum” I said as I walked over to her and kissed her on the che

Gunner.When it came time for dinner, I was relieved. I hadn’t stopped thinking about Zee all afternoon. I was worried for her, I didn’t even know if she had a pack. As far as I know we are the only pack in this region. The closest pack wasn’t even on the island, it was nearly three hours away. I couldn’t let it go and kept telling myself over and over again, I should have followed her, I should have gone to check on her. The worry was stewing in my mind.I was helping Nat set the table for dinner when I suddenly felt this weird headache come on. It was probably from being in the sun all afternoon. I shook my head and went to get some water. I went to the fridge and pulled out a bottle of cold water. As I was drinking, I felt as though someone has just kicked me in the ribs. I spat the water out ac

Zelena. Roses, I can smell roses and it’s making my nose itch. I tried to lift my hand to scratch but I couldn’t move it. I tried the other hand, and I can’t lift that one either. I started to panic. Oh god, what has he done to me now. I want out, please let me free. I tried to open my eyes. They are heavy and dry. I blink my eyes open and try to focus on something around me. Ow, that hurts, I blink my eyes a few times to get the moisture on them. I can start to make out a few objects. I turned my head to the side and there’s a window with blue curtains, a small brown leather armchair sits in front of it. Where the heck am I? Next to the window is a bookshelf with a lot of books piled on top of each other. I've never seen this place before. I look to the end of the bed and there’s and open door leading to a bathroom. I turn my head to the other side and there’s a head laying on the bed. I blink a few more tim

Zelena.As we got to Gunner's room, he gently placed me down on the edge of the bed and went to the other side.“I’d like to use the bathroom” I said standing up slowly.He grabbed my hand and started to walk with me. I stopped and looked up at him and smiled,“I think I can manage on my own”“Oh yeh, sorry” he laughed letting my hands go and sitting on the end of the bed.

Zelena. I opened my eyes slowly. The sun was already shining brightly through the window. I reached my arm behind me and felt around the bed. I sat up quickly and looked around the room. Gunnerwasn’tthere. I took a deep breath and yawned stretching my arms out. Wait, my chestdidn’thurt. I twisted my back from side to side waving my arms in the air, my ribsdidn’thurt at all. I got up from the bed and walked around the room, still no pain. I noticed the bookshelf and decided totake a look. There were so many books, some with older worn covers and others newer looking. I picked up a small red b

Zelena.I headed up the stairs and back to Gunners room. I plopped myself on the bed and stared at the ceiling. Wow, how crazy was that. I thought back to the first day that I saw him, bumping into him in the hall. He made me feel so nervous even then. It makes sense now why Icouldn’tget him out of my head, why I felt so drawn to him. And in the hallway when he bandaged my hand, he is the first person that has ever made me feel safe.It’sall so clear now, this weirdcrazy world that I’ve been plunged into, it’s where I’m meant to be. With him. I sat up on the bed and decided to go and find him.Iwal

Gunner.I sat slumped on the floor, the tears rolled freely down my cheeks. Cole, Smith, Nat, Deena Mum and Dad, all stood in the hallway whispering to each other.“Your what?” Nat said stunned.Ididn’trespond, all I could think of was Zee. Icouldn’tlose her, not now, not ever. I have only just found her, and I know in my heart what we have together, I know the bond is real, I can feel it.&ldqu

Gunner.The next few days all blurred together, I slept on the chair next to the bed. Zelena had good days and rough days. She would lay motionless for hours and then have a sudden burst of panic thrashing about and screaming but she never fully woke up and never opened her eyes. A few times a day a tray of food was left by the door with fresh flowers. Nat came by at one point asking to come in and see Zelena, the only way I could get rid of her was withmy visa cardand theopportunityto go shopping to buy Zee some clothes and stuff. Cole and Smith flashed me a couple of times to check in, but Ididn’tfeel like talking to them or seeing them. Artemis dropped off another jar of cream but seeing how I barked at h

The Moon's Descendant Epilogue
Gunner It’s been three months now since the battle. Three months of helplessness and pain. Everyone is telling me to keep pushing on and to throw my all into leading the pack. But it’s hard, and it’s getting harder each day. Cole has been great with the pack, helping where he can. I appreciate everything he is doing but it’s just not right. I thought that I would have Zee beside me, helping me. I thought we were going to do this together. We lost thirty-six wolves in total. Two from Blue Moon and one from Crescent Wolf. A group service was arranged to bury our dead and a huge black marble boulder was brought in to hold a memorial placard. Mum and some other she-wolves arrange a garden area and small benches to surround the boulder, making a nice area to sit and mourn. I haven’t had the strength to go there yet, but I can see it through the trees from my office window. I find myself often staring at it mindlessly. Alpha Titus of Crescent Wolf
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 50 - The End
Zelena.I am going to rip this piece of shit hunter to pieces. I threw forward my arm sending another hunter flying through the air. Tobias growled and snapped at the hunters, the heated fury coming from his body was only increasing my own anger. I was about to go for another hunter went I felt a presence in the clearing. A blur of dark grey fur ran into view and headed toward the fighters. Tobias’s head lifted and turned to the wolf and his ears pricked up, he knows this wolf. The wolf lunged onto a hunter and ripped his head clean off before grabbing hold of the next one. A muffled sound echoed over the humming gunfire and I searched for its source. My eyes landed on a sight that filled me pride and lust.Gunner’s knees wrapped around the hunter's head as he gracefully threw his body through the air, landing in a crouching position. My eyes snapped to the hunter in front of him, pointing his gun at Gunners face. I felt my skin burst into
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 49 -Family reunion
Zelena.After cutting the power to the pack house at the switch box, the village was now dark. A small glow from the direction of the driveway, told me that the loud bang I heard a few minutes ago was an explosion. I stood in the clearing that Gunner had marked out for me. Tobias stood next to me in his wolf form. Four of his fighters were surrounding us, also in their wolf form. I feel like I should change as well, but I haven’t used my power as a wolf yet. I don’t even know if I can. My best bet is to stay as human.A startled yelp escaped my lips when gunfire rang out around us. Shit, here we go. Tobias nudged his head against my shoulder.*I got you little one*I looked up at him wide eyed. He flashed me, how did he flash me.*We can flash?**I assumed as much, being your guardian and all that, we have to be able to communicate*
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 48 - Report
Gunner.This is bad, Zelena needs help. I went to run for the house but the pain in my shoulder slowed me. Damn fucking bullet. I snapped my head back and changed back into my human form. I looked down at my bloodied shoulder. The skin was torn open and peeled back by seared flesh. It was dark red and still bleeding. It’ll be fine, worry about it later. I held my arm in place across my chest. The same large grey wolf came up beside me and held out its hind leg. He growled and huffed, nodding his head to the leg. I hadn’t noticed before but there were a pair of shorts tied to his ankle. Smart idea, I’ll have to remember that. I grabbed the shorts and pulled them on with one hand. We ran for the pack house side by side and I kept pace with this wolf no problem. As we neared the tree line, the ringing of gunfire at the house was indisputable.We burst through the trees and I could clearly

Gunner.“They’re here, I saw them. They'll be at the borders any minute” Zelena rushed out. She flashed me pictures, I saw the hunters converging on the borders and an aerial view of forest around our village and the coast in the distance. She had another Drakos vision. Excellent. They were definitely closer than we predicted, they had to be only minutes away from the borders now.*Cole report**They are at the edge southern border, heavy weapons and high numbers of soldiers**How close?**Two minutes maybe less*An explosion, a loud bang and the sound of bursting tyres brought me out of my flash with Cole. They’ve hit the traps at the end of the driveway.“The spikes. They’re at the end of the driveway. Cole reported them approaching the southern border” I said turning to m

Gunner. “We have this section of forest secure, the tree cover will give our fighters a boost. We have blocked any through path here and here. This section of the forest was near on inaccessible, we have downed a few trees to make sure that nothing can get through”. Rex my eldest commander was pointing out the parts of the forest on the map as he spoke. He’s a great Were, strong and capable. It will be a hard hit to the pack the day that he retires. “I have traps set here and here for any incoming vehicles. More traps are set along this section of the border. The exterior of the pack house is secure and the village has been rigged here, here, here and here” Felix pointed out the cabins in the village and the other parts of the pack land. He has done very well in the limited amount of time he had. I like his initiative, his work ethic and his focus. He is a high contender for the top commander position after Rex. “I want Zelena to stay in the

Gunner. “No, we need to spread them out more, here” Cole said pointing to a section of the forest on the map that was splayed out on the table. “We already have two battalions in this area, they can cover that ground as well” I replied. “Yes, but now we have the extra wolves to utilise and that forest area is thick, they could use the additional eyes” Cole rebutted. Cole has taken to his new official role as Beta wolf with ease. We always knew that he’d become the Beta at my ascension, but doing the job and training for the job are two different things. I trust him one hundred percent and that’s why I’m letting him argue his point, even if the Alpha’s word is final. “Okay, I hear you. Place another ten there and there, others here and here” I agreed as I pointed at parts of our borders on the map. “Son” I heard dad’s voice from the door behind me. I spun around to see him and nodded for him to continue. “The Bl

Zelena.“Come and see them off, they’ll want to see you” Dad said before disappearing back through the door.Gunner took my arms from around his neck and kissed my hand before leading me out onto the porch. The village looked empty, I could see men and wolves gathered at the tree line towards the edge of the clearing. A few more people were headed to the front of the house, but there were no happy voices or laughter. No sounds of kids playing, or the smell of food cooking. Nothing.Gunner and I headed around to the driveway while the others went back to their preparations. The first bus was already loaded and ready to go, the second was still putting bags in the storage hold. Roe was standing with two men, assisting them with the bags. A lot of men were standing waving up to the busses, both older and younger men, fathers and their sons, I guess. A few strong looking women were

Zelena.As I stomped back down the stairs, I found Gunner talking with Tobias, Cole and a man I hadn’t seen before. He was a bit shorter than Cole and a lot older, but still clearly very fit and in good shape. His long light brown hair was tied back in a ponytail and his beard was well kept. As I reached the bottom step, all men turned to face me. Their faces were blank, but I could feel the tension in the air around them.“What’s going on?” I asked walking to Gunners side.“Smith is headed back, he reached the Crescent Wolf pack” Cole paused,“And? Are they coming too?” I questioned. Cole looked to Gunner and the new man and back to me, his eyes dropped a little.“Not exactly” Gunner inserted.“Hello Luna, I’m Patrick, I've come from Crescent Wolf” the new man spoke, his voice somewhat breaking the awkward silence.“Hello sir” I
