Murphy's POV.My heart trembled as I followed the rebels away from Jessica and Ryan to a corner to speak. I thought, running through my head, as if all of them decided to pounce only on me and attack me, I was not going to survive it alone. I, however, did not want to cause panic across the camp, and that was why I insisted that they allow me to follow the rebel, seeing that nothing was going to go wrong and that I trusted they were not going to attack me. The truth was that I was not sure about that, and I did not know what they would want to say to me, but then I needed to take them away from Ryan and Jessica to hear whatever it is that they wanted to say.Just as we stepped behind the building, we were all standing and staring at each other as I waited for them to speak, but no one was ready to speak. They were all staring at me in silence, and I wondered what was going on. Rebels were not good with silence; they often attacked without thinking, as they felt like nothing was able t
Ryan's POV.I was staring at Murphy when I asked him that question, and instantly he turned his gaze to me before saying in another, rather low voice. "I am not worried, Alpha; I'm just concerned about if they do not survive this thing, seeing it has taken too much effect on them," Ryan said to me, and at that moment I knew he was not speaking the truth because the look of concern was still obvious on his face, and I was rather curious to see that Murphy was concerned about others.The Murphy that I had known even before he became a rebel was never concerned about whatever anyone else was going through, but I'm so glad to see the changes in me now that he had finally confessed about the goddess. I was happy to see that he slowly began to take on the nature of a real wolf."I am happy for you, Murphy. I am glad that you are gradually conforming into the real wolves that you have always been," I said to him, and without saying a word to me, he walked over to the rebel and tried to hold
Ryan's POVListening to Jessica talk about a time when I would have the chance to rule over a pack that did not have as much worry as the one that we had, I doubted at the time that could ever come because all my life I had been trained to become an alpha, and even when I became the alpha of the Ashmoon Pack, I realized that the troubles of the pack were many, but I did not get to see them because I had not yet become the alpha until I was."Jessica, we do not hope for a peaceful pack, but we hope for the strength to be able to rule in peace. There is no peaceful pack anywhere, and even Ashmoon Pack, which we think is peaceful because it has a kind of ruler who seems untouchable, go to the people if you go to them, they will tell you how troubled they are. As much as I am aware, there is no peaceful pack, and all we can desperately hope for is that we have the grace of the goddess to carry on whichever assignment that she sends us over to Earth, which I always pray for every single ni
Jessica's POV. I stood there watching in surprise as Ryan led the people to take the rebel wolves into the building and attend to them until they were fully recovered, and I thought that this was beyond kindness; Ryan was only being naive. I was not pleased with it at all because these rebels were ready to attack and kill innocent werewolves who simply had taken shade in what was to be their home, which they had abandoned for a very long time, and Ryan was treating them with the kind of kindness I did not understand. "Jessica, you just need to let it go and let Ryan do what he thinks is best to do. You cannot tell him what to do. You know alpha. Ryan is very self-willed, and I'm sure that whatever it is he's doing, he has a reason for it," Murphy said as he walked over to my side and whispered those words to me, hoping that it was going to make me calm down, but I was not willing to leave that spot where I was standing, as the surprise was just so much, and I could not bear it anymo
Ryan's POV. When we left to come to find the missing Pack member A part of me knew that finding him was going to be a very difficult task, but I was only being positive about the search, and I and Murphy combed the entire area trying to find the wolf. We spent the entire day searching every corner of the woods, as we thought that we might come across him somewhere, but then we did not find him. We were almost out of the woods into another area entirely when Murphy called my attention, telling me that it was not wise to go into that area of the woods because it was where very dangerous rogue wolves stayed, and they were not going to forgive anyone who trespassed . At that moment it occurred to me that if that pack member had entered into that area, he might have been attacked by rogue wolves and was not going to make it out alive. "Do you think that he has entered somewhere like that? I mean, if we are not allowed to enter into this section of the woods and he did, it means that
Jessica's POV. I stared at that particular one who made that comment, and the sight of him flickered an anger within me, and my Luna Shadow curse began to arise, but I held it and did not react at that moment. "If you do not want to have that decency, then it means that you want to fight us, and we are not ready to fight you," I said to him, and as if my words were funny, they all burst into laughter, laughing loudly and roughly. They meant to scar me, but I had dealt with rough and unconcerned wolves in the past, but I had never really faced the Rebel in a fight. I was so annoyed by the way that they kept laughing and mocking us, and at that moment I was ready to take out my pity and let the curse affect them if they tried anything silly. "Look, we need you to get your members out of this camp in two minutes, else we are going to raid this whole place, and believe me, none of you stand a chance against us." They said to me still I didn't budge. I just looked away from them a
Jessica's POV. Kane could not hold the surprise at my insistence that we stay there at the camp until Ryan and Murphy arrived because we were obviously faced with danger, and these rebels, whose number we did not know, could attack us anytime soon. I understood where his fear was coming from. If it ever came down to fighting, we were not going to be strong enough to fight them. As the people in the camp barely had knowledge of fighting, or even if Kane was, I'm not sure that both of us could fight these rebels who live their entire lives fighting against everything and even themselves. "This is dangerous, believe me. I have lived out here for years now, and I can tell you that these rebels do not give a care in the world whatever happens here. They could kill everyone here without even feeling a little bit of guilt that they were killing their innocent ones. I have lived here, and I know how dangerous and rough they could be, so it is better that we find somewhere else safe for the
Jessica's POV. Suddenly, the camp became calm, and everyone was now looking more calm than the way that they were before I arrived there. I felt a lot more relieved seeing that they were a lot more calm now. Kane, who seemed to be rather surprised at the sudden calmness, could not help but whisper to me what I had done. At that moment I realised that the people needed to be together so that they could pass through the moment, and I instructed that everyone gather up at And that was where we all stayed together and had dinner. It was like one big family, and slowly they began to feel at ease again, and you could hear their laughter. At midnight so many of them were already asleep, and a few were only chatting and laughing when we heard a sound from the gate. At first I thought that it was Murphy and Ryan, and I stood up immediately to check. I came with Kane beside me, and I noticed that it was not Ryan or Murphy with some shadows that were hovering around the gates. "What c
Jessica's POV. "What is going on?" I asked as I stood up to my feet immediately, and I could see Kane do the same as we both began to walk fiercely towards the section where we could hear the noise. "What is going on here?" I asked the pack members who gathered around the structure that was there as I spoke to them, and I wondered what was there because they all seemed a little terrified. I was going to find out myself, and slowly I found my way into their midst, looking at all of them eye to eye as I looked for the person that was going to explain to me and opened the speaker. I pointed at a girl who was very young and wasn't here to explain to me. "I know you are young and you are going to be truthful. I want you to tell me exactly what happened here that caused such a loud noise before I arrived. I need you to tell me the entire truth because I will not tolerate a lie, you hear me?" I asked her as I signaled at her to come closer, and as she came closer, she nodded her head
