*Meet me in Greyson's office,* Indianna said.

"Is something wrong?" Laura asked.

"I don't know," Indianna frowned. "I've got to go."

"Take the food!" Laura said sternly, but smiled at Indianna.

Indianna nodded and made her way to Greyson's office where Ace was on the phone.

"How's it going?" She asked and Ace shook his head.

"Not good."

Indianna took a seat in Greyson's chair and held her hand out for the phone. "Janson," she said once Ace passed it to her.

"Indie?" Jason's voice came through. "Indie, he's got us surrounded. He's starving us out."

Indianna paled. "What?"

"Rogue has men surrounding my pack. No one can get through," Janson explained. "I don't know what to do."

"Surrender," Indianna said meekly. "It's all you can do."

"No! There has to be some other way."

"I've spoken to Rogue. The only way for everyone to survive is for you to surrender. Give him control."

"Indianna, I cannot do that!"

"You have too!" Indianna protested. "Or you'll loose everything."

"I can fight."

"We tried to fight," Indianna said quietly. "The consequences are great. Janson, Rogue has promised to let you live if you surrender."

"I can't just give up. It's not in me to just bow down and give up."

"It wasn't in Greyson to do that either and look what happened!" Indianna snapped and took a deep breath. "S-sorry. I just don't want anyone else to loose their lives."

"Olivia is calling me, I've got to go," Janson said. "I'll think about it, Indie."

"Good luck," Indianna whispered and put the phone down.

"He'll do it," Ace said. "He has too."

Indianna shifted on the chair. "I hope so," she murmured and picked up her plate of food and forced a few mouthfuls down.

She had been careless. She hadn't been eating properly. She was being selfish. It wasn't just her she had to think about anymore.

"I've sent people out to search the grounds," Harry said and barged into the office, his hand wrapped firmly around Brooke's. "We need to know how the wolf slipped through our defences."

"Wolf? What wolf?" Ace asked.

"Harry saw an unknown wolf on the east border," Indianna explained.

"Did you catch a scent?"

"I didn't recognise it," Harry said.

"It was just standing there," Brooke said. "Just watching."

"Did it seem... dangerous?" Indianna asked.

"No," Brooke said.

"Doesn't mean that it isn't," Harry snapped. "Who's on east border security tonight?"

"Oscar and his team," Ace said and sighed. "We will need to have a word with them. They let a wolf get onto our territory."

"What do we do if we can't find the wolf?" Indianna asked.

Ace frowned. "I... I don't know."

"We're falling apart without Greyson," Indianna murmured and ran her hand down her face. "We're kidding ourselves if we think we can do this."

"We can do it," Ace said.

"We've managed for this long and now we've got Ace back," Harry said. "Stop giving up when things get tough, Indianna."

"Harry," Brooke said softly. "Be considerate."

"Being considerate isn't going to help," Harry snapped and Indianna sighed when the phone rang.

"Yes?" She said tiredly once she picked it up.

"Luna?"

"Yes?"

"It's Jane," the woman said and Indianna remembered the woman who had taken Ellie in.

"Hi, how's Ellie?" Indianna asked, missing the teenager that Indianna had helped welcomed into the pack after her awful upbringing.

"I... Luna... she's gone," Jane said, her voice cracking. "Franklin and I have searched all over. When we looked in her room just now there was a note."

Indianna sucked in a breath. "A note from who?"

Indianna knew the answer.

"Rogue."

Indianna looked up at everyone in the room. It was so quiet that even Brooke overheard the conversation.

"Rogue said something about a punishment," Brooke whispered and edged closer to Harry. "This can't be it... could it?"

"Forget the search for the unknown wolf, we need to find Ellie. The last time Rogue kidnapped one of us, they died," Indianna said and stood up. Everyone stiffened at the thought of Martha.

Harry was right. She couldn't give up when things got tough.

She was the Luna.

She had to be strong.

As strong as she could be.
