  AMBER. “You don’t need to if you don’t want to. The females there are not forced to speak in front of the crowd either. They have a personal therapist who they could talk to, but some welcomed the idea of sharing their experience in a big crowd.”“Arlo asked me if I wanted one, but I refused. I’m not sure I can tell anyone, even a therapist. Only Arlo knows all. I think he is enough.”I nodded and took her hand, entwining our fingers together as we kept walking. “He is, if you feel that he is. Take your time, Mindy. Nothing is right or wrong, whether you share it with more people or just with Arlo alone. This is your life, and no one is controlling it for you anymore. You get to decide on that.”She tilted her head to look at me, and our gazes met. Her eyes were welling up with tears, but she offered me a smile. “I love that I’m able to take control of my life now. I’m so glad Arlo found me. I know Nadine would also help me, but I’m glad to be here with my mate. And you and the Alpha.

  AMBER.Zach and Arlo left for the Council territory, and I didn’t come with them. I had things to do, and with the clock ticking, I didn’t want to miss any training or detox sessions. To be honest, I feel good. I still couldn’t feel any sign of my wolf emerging, but I felt stronger than I’d ever been. Maybe I was just thinking about it, or maybe I was really improving. I saw muscles on my arms, and with how long I was able to run during the pack run, I wanted to assume it was the latter. “Way to go, ladies!” Aunt Jenny exclaimed with pride, eyes twinkling as she clapped her hands while looking at Mindy and me as we finished our sparring. “You both are doing so well! I couldn’t be more proud.”Mindy handed me a towel, and we both walked to where Aunt Jenny was. She immediately threw her hands around Mindy and hugged her. My eyes watered as I looked at her and kissed Mindy’s cheek. I knew Mindy was missing her mother, and she told me she secretly loved how affectionate Aunt Jenny wa

  BETA ARLO. “By the way, if you want his penis, let me know. In the meantime, I had it hanging in the throne room of Kalmerus. He can have it back once I welcome him to hell…” Those were Uncle’s last words before he disappeared.Alpha Grant’s face turned red upon hearing his words—out of anger or embarrassment.“I can’t believe you did nothing but stand there and watch as he butchered my son with his words after he destroyed his body!” “Didn’t you do the same thing? Watch as your son destroys lives?” Alpha Jacob retorted. “You have no proof… A demon’s word cannot be used on trial…” Uncle Jacob didn’t say anything as the medical ambulance came, and he instead directed his men to take Gray from his father’s hold. This time, the former Council Head didn’t object and let them take his son. “Once Alpha Gray regains consciousness, we will ask him to step down as the Alpha of Crescent Moon.” Uncle Riley spoke as he stood in front of him, beside Alpha Jacob. “No! That is not part of the a

  BETA ARLO.Aside from the fact that the surroundings had become too warm, I was sweating because I was terrified that the truth would come out. But I was putting my whole faith in Uncle Adan. He would never throw me under the bus. The whole quadrangle fell silent, but everyone kept looking around, wondering what was happening. Smoke filled the front of the second floor of the building before something appeared in the middle of it. Before I could make out his form, a body fell and landed on the ground with a loud thud. My eyes widened, and I failed to notice the reaction of the people surrounding us because my eyes were drawn to Gray’s battered body as he landed on the concrete ground. I was sure he was bloody when I left him, but aside from blood and a few bruises, there were more wounds and cuts on his body. It looked like he went to hell and back with how he looked. He was whipped and tortured. I was only gone for a few minutes, but it felt like they had done many things to him

• HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   112: A Mate's Pain Pt2

  BETA ARLO. “Why the fuck are you crying?” He grunted. “He raped my mate, and if he ended up dead in my hands, they might take me away from her. We are just starting our lives together, Uncle.” I told him, wiping my snot with my arm. “Help me…”“Where are you?”“Forest, in the Council territory. I can send you the coordinates.”“Coordinates doesn’t work for me. I need a mental picture.”“Wait,” I said and put him on speakerphone before I took three shots of where I was, including Gray’s unconscious body, and sent them to him. “Will that work?”He didn’t reply, but the next thing I knew, Uncle Adan appeared before me. His eyes were drawn directly to Gray. He went to him and checked his pulse. “His pulse is still strong. He’s not dead.”“I cut his tongue because he was using an Alpha command on me…”A smug smirk tugged on his mouth, and that helped ease the burden I felt. “Aren’t you a fucking genius? Now let’s get you fixed.” He came to me and grabbed my arm, pulling me to stand up.

• HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   111: A Mate's Pain Pt1

  BETA ARLO.I wanted Gray dead in my hands.My fist hit the bridge of his nose, which I was aiming to eliminate his vision, while I kept one hand around his throat, choking him. His blood splattered all over the ground and touched my chest. The sounds of his face breaking and the cries coming out of him were like euphoria I had never experienced in my whole life. I had never hated anyone the way I hated the man in front of me. He was no different from Maddox, or maybe he was fucking worse.At least Maddox was not able to say to my face that he touched my mate, unlike Gray, who threw it out like he was just showing off a candy. He thought his masculinity depended on the fear of the female beneath him. My blows and punches were going everywhere. On his face. On his chest. On his stomach. I was in a rage that I didn’t anticipate that he was still capable of talking. “Stop hitting me!” He said, choking as an Alpha command rolled off from him. My body trembled as I aimed to throw anothe
