Marcus. It was time to visit Willow's pack for the antidote. It was an important place. We needed everyone to be in the bunker, and we needed Monkshood seeds to remain hidden and out of sight. I could not believe we were at it again, but it was part of our job as Alphas. We drove to Willows with me behind the wheels this time. Gwen slept most of the time at the back, and I couldn't help but glance at her through the rearview mirror. Lately, she had been sleeping a lot, and I kept my observations to myself. Delan was waiting for us, and so were Ginger and her children. The triplets were not happy that we did not become with their friends. It was a tough decision to make. Where Gwen felt we should take them to her father, Mason and I decided it was best they were hidden just in case Willow falls. We honestly did not know the plan of the humans. The battle at the Green Pack could be a decoy and a way to distract us from the main battle, and that was why Mason and I would remain at Wil
Marcus Doctor Isabelle soon joined us. She looked like she had rushed down in a hurry. She was happy to see Gwen, although she tried to hide it; we caught the glint in her eyes. She was glad that Gwen was okay. "Alpha Renfield, Alpha Mathlaw, Alpha Mackenzie, Luna Gwen, Luna Ginger," she greeted all of us with the utmost respect she could manage. I offered her to sit with us, and Ginger got her something to drink because she seemed out of breath. "Why do you look tired?" Gwen asked the Doctor, and Isabelle blushed a bit. "I ran here in wolf form carrying my clothes with my jaws. The jeep won't start," She said, and it surprised us because her lab was far from the Alpha house. "How are your legs?" She asked Gwen, and Gwen smiled at her. "Good and running, thanks to you," she said, and the doctor beamed at her. Mason cleared his throat and leaned forward. Isabelle's behaviour towards Gwen was getting him uncomfortable, and I couldn't blame him for it. The woman was seriousl
Gwen By evening, Marcus, Mason and I retired to our bedroom. I was worried about our plan, but I did not let it out. I had been feeling sickly lately, and I suspected I might be pregnant, but I did not want to raise any alarms because of the events. If I told them now, they would not let me help, and there was no way the two of them could be in two places at a time. My father needed all the help he could get to fend off a possible attack. He was not lying when he said the whole Simone issue had halved the Willows' population. If one of them had to stay and the other left, there would be only two alphas here to help withstand the might of the humans, while at the other end, there would be a higher concentration of Alphas. The other alphas of fallen territories, Liam and Fredrick, had joined Lucius and Pacwater when they found out we might be helping. It was time to wear my Luna shoes and help out. I watched Marcus and Mason joke about something and laugh. As interesting as it seemed
Gwen The next day came quickly, and it was time for me to set off to Gray pack. Scott accompanied me there. I did not want to leave my mates for fear that we do not see each other again. I wish we could be in the same place, but the humans and the treacherous wolves made that impossible. I still did not know whether to tell Mason and Marcus that I might be pregnant. I had spent the whole night contemplating it, but Leah told me to hold back until we were sure. I intended to get tested at the Clement pack to be sure before breaking the news to them. Ginger made a wonderful breakfast, and I noticed she had been crying. War was hard on us because we all had lost someone dear to us to it at a time in our lives, watching it happen all over again stirred up uncontrollable fear in us. Ginger hugged me tightly outside by the jeep. "You, come back to us alive, please," she pleaded in tears, and I nodded, fighting back my tears too. I pulled away, and my father hugged me tightly. "Make sure
Gwen I waited the next day for the vaccines to arrive. I had bought the pregnancy test kit, but I was yet to take the test because I did not want to panic. While waiting, I called my mates. Mason answered on the first ring. "Gwen," he said, and I paused a while, to compose myself. I was still missing them. "Mace, How is everything over there?" I asked him. "Quiet, lonely and boring without you. I slept alone last night. It felt weird because that would be the first time in a long time, Gwen. Marcus occupied himself. He is missing you, and we are both worried." he confessed and tears streamed down my face. I had not slept alone in a long time. Last night I tossed and turned in the bed, and even though the heater was on, I felt cold and alone. "I miss you and Marcus," I confessed close to tears, "I want all this to be over so we can get our lives back," I said. It wasn't the distance that was making me cry. It was fear of what could happen shortly that troubled my soul, and kept my
GwenIt wasn't long after Michael and I finished having our serious talk when Ingrid showed up at his house. The bitch was shocked to see me, but I maintained a calm front. She looked at my legs and smiled."Luna Gwen, you are walking again," She said looking genuinely happy for me, which made me sick and angry. I honestly wanted to beat her up and force her to confess her crimes, but I couldn't."Yes, I healed," I said, and Michael linked me to tell me to thank him for not making her uncomfortable."Why haven't you moved in with your mate?" I asked her, "I thought you were going to quit your job to be with him? He quit his job," I said, calling her out on her lies. She bowed her head in shame."It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be," she said, and Leah wanted to punch her in the face. I was trying hard not to growl at her. The hairs on my back were standing. How could she have successfully fooled a beta wolf? "Please elaborate because it is unfair and cruel not to keep your prom
Gwen Ingrid was locked up in a cell. Michael was taken to the infirmary for the bullet to be extracted from his back. Luckily it did not hit any vital organ, but because of the vaccine, he wasn't healing fast enough. I was furious and disappointed with Ingrid. I could not wait to get to the bottom of the matter. Now that we knew she was working against us. Getting information out of her would be easy. I wanted to check on Michael to be sure he was okay before going to question her. He had risked his life for mine. I would never forget it. Because of him, I would be going home to my mates. I went home to get my phone and call Mason and Marcus. The phone rang for a while, and no one answered. I didn't think much of it until I called my father, and he too did not pick up. I did not know who else to call. Everyone I had their number was with me at Gray pack. I hoped that deep down, they were fine. Alpha Liam came to see me and inform me that they had regained their territory and seized De
Mason When Gwen left for the Gray pack, we were all scared. Gwen had never gone to battle without either of us being there with her. This was the first, and it scared us. We had a lot of questions like, will she make the right judgement call? Can she take the lead? Will people listen out of loyalty? Those were our concerns. Gwen was an Alpha breed, but she wasn't an Alpha, she had no authority to command or compel respect. All the wolves that would be fighting by her side would be doing so out of loyalty, duty and love. I knew it was hard for her to leave, and I felt it. Marcus would have stopped her, he was close to it, but we did not know how Gwen would have taken it. If we had said no, she would have thought we did not have faith in her abilities. Talking to her on the phone was not enough. For the first time since we all got together, we slept in separate rooms. Marcus often went on runs to get his wolf tired, so he would just sleep when he returns. I guessed that was how he was
