Brendon's POV:
I remember the last day I saw her...
Aaliyah.
The excitement my soul mate radiated when she explained she was going with Luke to buy baby clothes. My first love and my first soul mate. She, was the perfect Luna. She was pregnant with my son. She wasn't along enough for us to know the gender... but every alpha wants a son for their first born. We agreed to go ahead and assume its gender. The reports of her death hit me hard that very same night. I lost my luna and beta because- for a long time... I thought it was just a freak accident. It was raining that day, after all. A vampire's scent would have been washed away. So of course... I never suspected it was Lamia all along. Two years ago, Beta Luke and Luna Aaliyah of pack Scarlet Nightwalkers lost their lives. The reports said the vehicle was going too fast... swerved to avoid presumably a car and went into a lake. If there was another car they tried to avoid, it left the scene of the crime. All t
Vivienne's POV:I ran my hands under cold water before smacking my cheeks hard across the face. My eyes were red around the green. I had been up watching him all night. I looked at my watch, it was close to midnight. The stress was killing me. He's not awake, yet. Sowle said three hours. What's going on with Brendon? I thought he would be awake by now. And, there's no signs of my father.I just looked at myself in the bathroom mirror. This room was connected off of the medical room they had Brendon resting in. I had shut the door for some privacy. Arwen took off to the other side to rest awhile ago. Her scent long gone from the room. Sometimes spirits need rest too. My eyes lingered on my dark circles. I took a towel off a basket and dabbed it on my face.I jolted my head up when I heard something hit the floor in the other room. My heart leapt. I threw the towel into the sink and went out quickly. My eyes landed on Aaragorn standing over the bed. His fingers to
Brendon's POV:How long has it been? I'm still here? How is this possible? I thought I would be waking up right now. Sowle said... three hours? Surely... I would be back in my body by now. After all... I know time works differently here... but... maybe I'm being impatient... but I'm positive I should be back by now. The world felt cold and lonely. Darkness was all my eyes could see. I was left alone in my thoughts.Luna...I have to talk to Luna.Moon goddess..."Luna," I called out into the darkness. My voice echoing into the void. "Where am I?" I wondered. My paws hit a solid ground and I was running on all four paws. I'm in my wolf form. I'm in my wolf form. The air didn't have a scent. I couldn't smell or see anything. Is this a curse? "LUNA!" I came to a stop and howled. My sound echoed into the void. "WHERE AM I?" I growled. I felt impatient. Restless.I don't understand. What's going on with me?I felt the urge to keep going. I
Vivienne Blair returns home after being away for college. She decides to go to the pack house for a welcome home party. There she discovers her younger brother's boyfriend is her soul mate. They reject each other as soul mates and leave with hurt feelings .She decides to go on a run to clear her mind and calm her nerves. She meets the Alpha, Brendon. A young eligible bachelor. Without much notice the two mate. The next day Brendon decides his intentions to make her his luna. He later finds out that Emmett didn't respect her as a mate, and never gave her a chance at love. This really upsets Brendon. The moon goddess curses Emmett but before Emmett is shunned out of the pack to walk as a rogue and never be permitted entrance into the moon's after life.., Viv visits the goddess and pleads another deal. Emmett becomes human and leaves the pack with Cole- her brother. And, don't forget Fang's warning: Lamia is coming. Cal and Innath, her other brothers, go to brin
Vivienne's POV:"Everyone," I called out as I stared at the remaining members of my pack. The ones that survived from coming here... the ones that also escaped the tragedy of being left behind in our territory. I took a deep breath as Aaragorn stood by me. His pack also gathered to listen in on what I was about to say. "Alpha Brendon-""Is he awake?" Someone asked me from the crowd. I flinched at their questions that followed. The same, wondering when they'd see him again. I held up my hand to silence them."Actually," I called out and they fell silent. "It's the complete opposite..." I trailed off. I looked over at Mateo and Eli before looking back at the crowd. "H-he didn't make it. The elixir didn't work." I felt my throat knot up but I- I told myself not to cry in front of them. I felt my lips trembling. Now I've got to tell them they're being lead by an unqualified luna...Aaragorn wants me to tell them we're joining the packs. It's for the best. I c
Niall's POV: "-Killed-" . . . "Alpha Brendon." "Well done, thank you for delivering the news to me." I heard Lamia's quiet voice praising someone. I was walking up towards her door when I overheard it. I slowed down to tip toe and stuck my ear up against the door. Of course, she'd know I was listening in. Nothing slips past her. She just doesn't know if it's me or not. The door was air tight... but not sound proof. 'Yes, thank you milady." It was Meynard's loyal voice inside the room with her. "Now that the mutt, what was his name again?" "Brendon." "Yes, now that I got that other wolf to kill Brendon... I'm sure the Scarlet Nightwalkers pack will be in my clutches in no time." "They're actually on the way here. They're not with Vivienne." "Ugh...." Lamia sounded annoyed. "That's not good, are you sure she's not with them?" "Maybe she's behind..." "Well..." She snorted. "The death of an alpha as well as a weak Luna will do many things to a pack. Especially after I kidnapp

Continuing Niall's POV:"M-Meynard!" Lamia's voice chocked out. Her body started to fall towards the fire but I caught her in enough time. I gently lowered her to the floor. My eyes glanced into hers as I remembered... even if this woman is a bloodsucking monster... I still loved her. I grasped her hand as I yanked out the knife from her back. What have I done? I threw the knife away from us."Lamia," I whispered gently. It was interrupted as the door came off its hinges. Meynard had kicked it down. He glared in at me as his arm started to morph. His skin reshaped into a strong blade of a scythe. It was horrifying to see once again. My teeth clenched. I'm not like vampires... if he chops my limbs off I will die. I have to be careful. He doesn't have emotions. He only knows to protect Lamia without hesitation."What have you done?" He asked. His eyes held confusion. Since Lamia told him once before he couldn't kill me. He was hesitating to make sure he woul
Brendon's POV:"In order for your nine lives to be granted I first require you go see Fang. His blessing will be the only reason I will grant you these extra lives.""Why does his opinion matter?""He'll first want to speak to you. You also remind me a lot of him. It's like the past will repeat itself if I grant you these lives. I want to be positive the past will not become the present. Once you speak with Fang and still feel strong about your decision on these nine lives... I will give them to you to do as you please.""I assure you Luna... I will not be repeating past mistakes."...My snout followed Fang's familiar scent. Luna's forest was absence of light the farther I ran from her. It was like the world itself here was nothing... without her. I ran as fast as I could. My emotions becoming heavy as I wondered... what if I don't make it to Vivienne in enough time? What if she dies and I have to live nine lives... without her? All because I'm taking too long to find Fang! I stopp
Brendon's POV: I took the trailsinto the forst to the boarders of Lamia's territory. My only thoughts focused on saving Vivienne. She's my whole world now. There's nothing I want better then to find her alive still and save the day. I want to kiss her over and over and tell her I love her to the moon and back. Because, that's how far I'd go for her. I would go there all nine lives and come back to see her beautiful face. And our future children. And their future children. 'I'm coming, Vivienne... I'm coming. Just wait a little longer.'I knew she couldn't hear me but I decided to talk to myself. To keep from the thoughts of loosing Steele to talk to. I would have kept marching forward but the forest seemed to move in front of me before I could reach the borders. I instantly caught a glimpse of wolves in the distance. I hid quickly under the shelter of a heavy brush. I decided to keep quiet if I was going
Vivienne's POV: "What happened?" The words flung out of my lips as I couldn't think of what else to ask. "What happened to my pack when they got here?" I balled my first. I was angry. There was no sense in her killing them. "I know you didn't kill all of them." She clearly took the survivors away someplace. The woman I once thought that I could never compare to and still agree with... sat down in front of the window in a red velvet chair. She crossed her arms and pushed her black cloack over her knees and smoothed the cloth. Her posture was well defined where she sat. Lamia's stileto signature heels pointed like fangs into the hardwood floors and created a puncture. I held a gaze with her but my eyes couldn't help spot the bloodstair hiding in the crook of her red lipstick smirk. "This reminds me of the first time I saw you," she said as she looked to the floor. "but, you're not waking up from being overdosed. You're here under new circumstances. You can at least say hello. Are we no
Cole's POV: The warehouse.As Andrew once was held captive in and can now describe to me. It was a humid building. With wire cages no bigger then four by four and stacked on top of one another. It was huge inside. And, a storage for what my brother Niall and Lamia had been working on these past few years. It was a savage hell hole to look at. Because the cages were small and hardly any room to move in. This building was used for storage. And, this was an obvious building for werewolf trafficing. Apparently... Places like the Lycanthrope wasn't rare. And, there was many other reasons for wanting your own wolf-trasforming pet. Sometimes people that went into the warehouse... never came back out. And, my pack was forced in there when Lamia raided my pack's territory. As much as my brother's warning for me to leave stuck in my head.... I couldn't shake the feeling I needed to find my twin.Nena was in trouble. And, she needed me bad. It didn't take
Vivienne's POV: "Do not worry... princess." Aaragorn looked from me to his pack mates and nodded in their way. "My pack has orders to follow behind yours. If they do not succeed in stopping your pack..." He reached out and smeared away a tear running down my cheek. "We'll hurry and try to convince them to st-" "We can't stop them! They're too far gone, Aaragorn. Don't you see? They're acting on their own. They're going to do it and I need your pack to just fight amongst mine." He wrinkled up his nose. The nice expression he had now fading. "WE are cowards," I muttered. "I don't think either of us should be leaders." Aaragorn smacked me against my face. The impact leaving a sting on my skin. I whimpered from surprise. My fingers touching my sore cheek. It was already beginning to swell. "I am not a coward." He was begining to growl. "I'm a fucking alpha. My pack is going to save yours in this bloody fucking mess... and when we do. You'll BE my luna. Because of how much you'll be in
Continuing Brendon's POV: A monitor's noise started up as it was forced on. And, the familiar sounds of a heart monitor hit my ears. It was familiar- from when I heard Vivienne's moving. Or, Innath's. I felt a force of air push into my lungs and I opened my eyes. I was stuck under a white sheet. My body was numb. I couldn't move it just yet. What happened to me? Where am I? Where's Vivienne? "VIVIENNE?" I yelled and heard my voice echo through the empty room. I smelled the air and remembered where I was. Why am I still in Blacktail Growler's territory?? And, where is everyone? Why isn't Vivienne next to me? I sat up quickly and yanked the sheet off of me. I ran my hand over my chest as I felt for any wounds. I was healed. I was fine. I am breathing. My feet hit the floor as I moved too fast. I yanked off the monitors and the IV piercing my skin. I spun around the room before walking towards the door. I pushed through and looked down the hall.
Continuing Brendon's POV:We followed Mateo through the woods until he came across the scent markers for Everfur's territory. Once he crossed the borders he met with a few of their wolves guarding nearby. They escorted him to the pack's town hall. This is where Everfur's pack held meetings. Their pack territory- to my knowledge wasn't centered through a pack house but a town hall. The pack house was non-existent to them. Instead, they worked more as a town. And, their alpha like a mayor. Alpha Rivera was a kind woman when I did get the chance to meet her. She's lucky to have my sister as her luna.It seemed like most of Everfur's pack members were already arrived at the pack's town hall. They were already gathering for a meeting. Mateo shifted into his human form in an alley and changed with the ones he was being escorted by. They had extra clothes hidden in a trash bin. There wasn't any trash of course inside the bin."That's again," he said to accompanying wol
