With a full belly for the first time in ages, I am content, happy, and well nourished.

Ring ring... ring ring...

The phone in the room is chiming, Elias and I stare at each other, puzzled at who it could be as it keeps on ringing.

Ring ring... ring ring...

Elias gets up to answer the call, lifting the hand set to his ear,

"Hello?" He asks, "Oh, hello... Yes ... okay ... fine .. yes... of course... yes, thank you." And with that, he returns the receiver to its holder,

"Who was it?"

"Maxwell," he answers me, turning to face me, "he's asked us to join him downstairs in his office,"

"Oh?" I ponder,

"Yes, to talk about red wolves." I honestly didn't think he would, I know he said he would but I don't really know him or what his word is worth. "Thats if you are up for it?" Elias asks as I lose myself in self thought,

"Oh, yes, when?"

"Right now,"

"Jezz, wow, okay, lets go," I jump up eagerly. I wonder what he know

    "Red wolves are wrote about in our earliest records, the Crane family have always been loyal allies to them from the very beginning. Where others feared them and saw them as unnatural, unholy creatures, the Crane's found the red wolves majestic and a power to be hold. Not something to hate and extinguish but something to save gaurd and protect." Maxwell tells us as I suck on the fruit flavored sweet he gifted me, which seems to be helping greatly. "The bigots and heretics sort to exclude them, label them, shunning them and eventually hunting them down." Maxwell says sadly as if he lived it and saw it first hand. "My ancestors and other families hid them but it was no use, they wanted blood and were determined to spill it. It was near on war, well thats how it was recorded, but from what I've read and the tails I've been told that have been past down the generations, it was more like genocide. The red wolves had no choice but to go into hiding and or suppress their 'talents' to blend

    'If we tell him anything about Pauline and what she revealed to us that day, it might lead to him asking more about the circumstances of her death. Which would not be good as I'm the one who killed her, he will do what any alpha would be expected to do and sentence us, me.' I self monologue in my head, until, as if sencing our fear and hesitation to share, Maxwell steps forward to say,"You are save here, you have nothing to fear. No matter what has happened or been done, there will be no harm or judgement to any of you." His words ring with truth and I feel as if he can be trusted. Elias and I share a look,'Elias?' Opening a mind-link, trying to hide my panic and fear, 'what if comes up and he presses the matter? I'll be .... I'll be..''I will let nothing bad happen to you! I promised, remember? I'm here, please don't worry, I won't let anything happen. Okay?' Elias sternly tells me with a protective tone, filled with love,'Okay,' 'Anyway, I have a feel

    "The entery goes on to say,'Douglas was digging a little more into the pack and it's goings-on when he heard that the girl didn't get far before the alpha's trackers found her hiding out a few towns over. They followed her and when she was alone chased and cornered her in an alley but somehow she got away and the trackers were brought back to be treated for serious burns. I think that when she was trapped and probably scared out of her mind, her emotions were running wild and especially as she was unable to shift due to the pregnancy, Rosalee burnt them to protect herself. I suspect using a power unbeknowing to her, because if she knew about it I believe she would have used it sooner. Rosalee is very likely a red wolf! Douglas called me last night and told he. He also said we are not the only ones thinking this, as alpha Skinner is outraged and the objective has changed in regard to the girl. The alpha has called in the clang to hunt her down and dispose of the problem she has become

    Elias POV It's been several hours since the readings of Maxwell's father's journaling, and I can still feel the pain in Chilli's heart like it is my own. I watch her as Erin goes on about something to us all in this private guest sitting room in the guest wing. It's refreshing to have some time just the four of us and not have to put on a show or pretend to be okay around others. All through dinner she put on a brave face to hide her heartache and numbness as she played with her food, just moving it around on her plate. "Not hungry?" I asked her, to which she just slowly shaked her head no."You need eat Chills, your eating for two now remember?" Erin jests, "Mmmnnn," Chilli grunts as she picks at her chicken pie and mash potatoes. "Are you put off because of this morning after breakfast?" I whisper quietly,"A little," she sighs, so I wrap an arm around her shoulders and squeeze her tight, giving her a kiss on the temple. But now seeing her cur

    Outside the East pack house, a figure crouches down in the bushes, watching by the dim light of the moon as another runs silently across the open grass area, keeping low to the ground, trying to stay out of sight. "Did you do it?""Yes, the alarms are disabled.""Good, did you see anyone? Did anyone see you?""No, and no, atleast, I don't think so,""What do you mean, you don't think so?""It's just, there are a few lights on still.""Everyone must be asleep by now, it's like nearly two am or something. Come on, we have orders and a job to do,""I've got the cans, and here's the lighter,""Good, lets go."Elias POV *cough, cough* ... *cough, cough*...The sound and movement of Chilli's body on me, as she coughs, wakes me slightly, pulling me to a half conscious state. *cough, cough* ... *cough, cough*...I rub her back, trying to smoothe her, not wantingher to wake yet, as I squint my eyes open to glance at the time but they are all blurry from just waking up.

    We race along another hallway following the sounds of distress as it becomes louder and louder, until we reach the end and last door. I go to open it but it won't, like it's locked or something."Why won't it open?" Chilli coughs next to me, leaning up against the wall, she sounds and looks exhausted."It's stuck, the bones of the building must be shifting in the heat." I speculate now trying to force the door open, but it still won't move. Even after throwing my shoulder up against it, it's no use."Together," Chilli suggests and I'm hesitant at the idea of her smacking herself into a solid door, but I know there is no stopping her or time to argue, so I just agree. "Ready?" She asks, and I nod, "One, two, three!" Bang! Both our shoulders hit the wood simultaneously, and I swear it moves this time but only slightly. "Again!" Chilli barks, determination filling her, "One, two, three!" Bang! I sigh as the door still stands in our way. Chilli moves us back a few extra steps, her eyes bu

    Chilli POV "ERIN! HERE THEY COME!" I shout to her as the first child finally kneels down and starts to crawl forwards,"COME ON, THAT'S IT, KEEP COMING, THAT'S IT!" Erin calls to them trying to coax them to her. I glance up at Elias as the next little one heads in, I see beads of sweat dripping down his face, his muscles tensing and arms shaking as a shock of panic pings from him. Oh, crap! I momentarily stop the little girl who's hand I was holding on to before and pass her the baby, guesturing her to carry the baby out with her. Then I jump to my feet and catch the beam in Elias's arms as it drops ever so slightly. Fuck! This thing is seriously fucking heavy! "You don't have to do everything on your own you know," I say with a bit of a grunt because of the weight of it, but all Elias can ask is,"Where's the baby?""Going through now with the little girl." I gesture with my head down as her feet disappear into the rubble. "Good, okay," he sighs through gritted teeth, "now it's yo

    "What were you just doing?" I ask, staring at her, my anger vanishing with the lights."I... I was ... I don't know," she stutters, looking around glass eyed at where the lights were, "I was ... just ...""You had your eyes closed and then you were glowing?" I explain to her,"I was on fire?""No, it was different, like the lights but all over," I say, gesturing to her whole body with my hands, " Why did you shut your eyes?" I asks softly, trying to figure out how she did it. "I was just trying to calm myself," she looks around worriedly, "Elias, we need to get out! The fire!" "It's fine, don't worry about it," I tell her, I have a hunch and need to follow it, because if I think I'm right. "What were you thinking about when you had your eyes closed?" I push, standing infront of her with my hands gently holding onto her upper arms."That we need to find a way out of here, ELIAS!" she shouts my names as the fire behind us, roars at us as if trying to attack us. "Do it again!" I tell

    Elias POV I look up and watch as Chilli steps out from the en suite, wraped in just a towel, making her way towards her dressing table as I lay on our bed where I was just aimlessly flicking through my phone. Taking a seat and opening its draw, she removes a single, plastic pot housing her facial cream and unscrews its lid. It's nothing fancy, not expensive, its just a simple, none branded, vitamin E night cream.I continue to ovserve as she dips two fingers into the pale lotion and looks into the mirror, to then slowly drag said fingers down her face, starting at her forhead, gliding smoothly along her nose and then finishing with a dab on her chin. She then wipes a bit of the remainder on each cheek before replacing the lid and putting it back in its draw. My eyes are fixed to her as she slowly but firmly works the cream into her skin, taking extra care near and around her eyes. Her finger tips caress over her own face and down her neck, over my mark on her neck

    Chilli POV Perching under a tree with Chant as we take a break from sparring whislts our mates for some reason decide to chop some fire wood. I find it amusing and humble how as the alpha he likes and enjoys chopping fire wood for the pack house, no job is to small for our mighty leader.Chant's seductive eyes never leave her mate as he swings the axe up into the air, where it seems to pause for the briefest of seconds before falling down onto a chunk of wood, spilting it into two. The whole movement and process is magical, so smooth and artistic like poetry. I had watched my own mate for a time, admiring his tensing biceps with every swing, the beauty of his movements and strength of the action, but now I'm just leaning back against the tree's trunk with my eyes shut, listening to the beautiful rhythmic sound of the wood splitting, of metal against nature, somehow for some reason I find it peaceful as I smirk at the thought of Chant lustfully gazing at Jay, it al

    Elias POV That was brutal, oh my goddess do I hurt, I haven't hurt this much from training since, shit, I don't know when. Sure, I was mad and needed to work it off, but fuck me, Chilli was livid, she was masking it well, I mean, wow. My ass hurts. I had to use all my strength to stay on my feet, especially after I hit the ground hard the first few times of her kicking and taking me down. Once she swept my legs out from underneath me, my wolf instincts took over just so I could stay on my feet. I think I pulled something that time, thank the goddess for wolf healing, cos my left ass cheek and leg are killing me. With Chant now paired with Chilli and Erin and Leroy working together, that leaves me with Jay, who is as good as his mate, oh dear. I sigh inwardly as we step away from the others to train, I can spar and keep up with anyone, I'm alpha afterall, but after the beating I've just endured, I'd prefer a nice easy spar, but hay ho, lets do this. Thankfully, Jay see

    Chilli POV Finally everyone is out on the field, we can get started. I am needing to hit something. Elias insist on sparring with me first and to Erin's relief but Chant's dismay, I agree. Which just leaves the others to pair up, one of them did suggest mate paring but the guys seems a little bit wary so it's girls vs girls and guys vs guys. For now anyway. After a fairly rough spar with Elias, I finally start to calm down and release my rage, which I guess was his plan, so I don't feel gilty later now if I cause anyone else major harm. Clearly sensing this, Elias allows us to switch partners and Chant and I go straight to each other, to which the rest of the group chuckle at our predictableness. Chant and I exchange a sinister grin as the others repair up, Elais with Jay and Erin with Leroy. I mirror Chant as she raises her arms up into a defensive stance, declaring she is ready, a smile growing on her face. As we stare down on each other I am reminded of our rematch

    "You know there was no way he would accept and train with us," Leroy says once we are alone and with just our own pack members, "I know, but it was fun and satisfying to embarrass him like that, the look on his face at the mere thought of it was golden. To watch him squirm." I can't help but let out an enormous laugh, to which Chilli shoots me evil eyes for finding any of this so amusing. "What?" I chuckle at her before pulling myself together because if looks could kill. I had to laugh, if I didn't I think I would have lost it, plus it felt so good, too good to put Jordan down a bit like that in such a slight way in front of the others. However, by Chilli's facial expression, she does not agree, goddess, did I want to kill him, thankfully in a way he did say no, or we would have had a dead alpha on our hands and territory. "Come on, your telling me you didn't want a chance at hitting him?" I ask her in a teasing way, she looks at me whislt crossing her arms across he

    "I hear some incorrect information has reached the ears of my children," "Oh, and what's that got to do with us? Idle gossip is not what these meetings are for." "No, not normally, but," she pauses for the briefest of moments to adjust her tone and the ferocity of her words, "but when it comes to petty, stupid, horrible lies about my family, my children, then you and I have a problem! A big problem!" He nearly chuckles in her face as he asks half heartedly,"Pray tell what are these so called insults?""A spare heir, a baby," she lists off the tamer ones first, working up to the biggest and worst one, before she stops again as I feel a heat burning off of her directed straight at Jorden, "and an inbreed!" The room falls silent after everyone gasps and shoot death stares at the alpha. A low growl escapes from mine, Erin and Leroy throats, our protectiveness taking over. Jordan looks like he doesn't know weather to laugh or bite back."Jordan!" One of the ot

    Jordan holds his hands up in defence as I take a few deep breaths to calm myself before turning to the rest of the room to acknowledge our other guests. "Alpha Jonathan, Luna Suzie, beta Willow, sorry for my tardiness, how is Maxwell?" I ask taking my seat next to Elias, pushing my anger down for now, eyeing up Jordan in the cornor of my eye, I'm not done with you yet, I think to myself."No problem Luna Winters, father is doing well and thoroughly enjoying his retirement," he smiles with a nod of his head, which we return, "thank you for asking." Jonathan took over as alpha of the west pack two years ago with his mate Suzie and appointed Willow Steal as the first female beta of the west pack. She is a strong minded woman with a powerful right hook."Alpha Alex, Luna Ela and beta Karl, welcome and thank you for coming today," Elias smiles to the leaders of the Spring rise pack from the south, who joined our alliance about four years ago.With the greetings done and out of the way, we

    The drive to school is a pretty normal one, we talk, sing and laugh all the way there, forgetting about any and all problems the day may have already brought. Once there and out of the car, we all walk hand in hand with Marcus in the middle, through the blue painted gates."Luna," the teacher on the gate addresses me with a nod of the head, as does any other adult that comes into eye contact with me. I smile back and return their nods.Like always, even though we come to Lily's class room first, we walk Marcus around to his first at her insistence, she says its part of her job to look out for him to make sure herself she sees him to his door. It warms my heart the care and love they have for each other. As I kiss my son goodbye and he hugs his sister, I take note of the other high ranking children from other packs, sitting at their tables ready for the lessons to begin. Future alpha's, beta's and Luna's all learning together including Tammy and Willow, Erin and Leroy's twins who are a
