LOGINAmethyst was still laughing hysterically, Lena was about to ask for a second time when a loud THUD interrupted the thought... Another... And then nothing but silence.Lena’s breath caught in her throat and Amethyst’s laughter stopped instantly “What the fuck was that?” “Somethings happening” Amethyst replied cautiously, “The other Luna’s, they’re outside the door”Lena rushed to the door, worried for their safety, when she opened it, she couldn’t believe her eyes. Both the guards were slumped on the floor, their eyes open but unseeing, they were dead. The smell of adrenaline and fear permitted the hallway and the three Luna’s stood above them.Kate was shaking so badly it almost looked like she was vibrating, Lorna’s face was pale but determined, Ally’s eyes darted everywhere, she alone looked polished and poised, a true Luna, Lena thought.“Lets get going” Ally hissed in an authorative tone “We don’t have time to stand around”“What happened?!” Lena demanded.Kate sobbed harder tha
Lena's nose burned with the scent of bleach as she paced around her room, a lot had changed in the past 24 hours. Bars had been added to her windows, her bedroom doors had been replaced with heavy, metal ones and a small red light blinking in the corner reminded her she was under constant surveillance. She could hear everything... it was too much, her every sense was heightening hourly. A cough from outside the door was yet another reminder of her imprisonment, guards had been posted since she woke up. Her memories were foggy and she felt the telltale drag of the Moonbane pulling at her limbs, she was injected as soon as she awoke. But it didn't seem to be as effective as she first few times, she could still walk and move with almost no weakness. "You should at least act like You're weakened, you know" A soft chuckle sounded in her mind 'AMETHYST?" Lena exclaimed "Who else would it be?" Her voice sounded different, somehow rougher, but it was definitely her. "I.. I just expected
BANE POV:Esther stood in front of Bane's desk, reading the schedule on her tablet. "The royal tour will begin in three weeks, Your Majesty. We'll Start in the north, move through the western border packs and then finish in Stormhold territory....""No" Bane cut her off, his tone was soft, but there was an unmistakeable edge to his voice. "We will START in Stormhold."Esther froze, glancing at the Emperors Beta for help. "That would mean doubling back hallways through the route, sire. The council has already expressed concern about the strain of the travel and planning...not to mention the optics of starting the tour with ...well ...Stormhold."Bane's head tilted slightly "Optics?"Esther hesitated before she answered, "Some of the council members feel it would look .... Confrontational, if we were to start there, when we would be passing other packs and territories to reach it.""Exactly" He replied simply.Simon cleared his throat carefully to attract his Emperors attention "It is r
The room still buzzed with the echo of her power. The chandelier lay smashed on the floor, the air was thick with tension and shock. The Luna's stood stock still against the wall and Darius stood in the middle of the wreckage, his blistered hand was healing in front of her eyes. He was furious, his eyes were murderous, she was surprised he remained in human form, he clearly had more restraint than she thought.Lena swayed on her feet but refused to fall, her body was trembling and her veins still prickled with the residual power, but it had weakened her immensely, she felt exhaustion dragging at her limbs and Amethyst's voice became fuzzy."Pathetic" Darius spat at her "You think you're strong? LOOK AT YOU, you can barely stand, You're nothing""You will never touch me again" She hissed back at him."Bold words coming from a half dead Luna" He laughed... His eyes flicked to Reid "Contain her"Reid didn't move "Alpha...She's unstable, she has power she can't control.""DO IT!" Darius's
"He's early, he wasn't supposed to come for another week" Annie's fearful hiss penetrated Lena's uneasy sleep and she opened her eyes."Yes, probably because of the new Luna" Helga whispered back, more composed than Annie. "It'll be fine, but we need to get her ready".Lena's chest tightened with anxiety WHAT NOW? "I can hear you both you know" Lena snapped at the door, it opened quietly and Annie and Helga entered the room with their heads bowed"S..Sorry Luna, The Alpha is coming, we need to hurry" Annie said urgently, Lena was still barely awake and surrendered to their fussing, they dressed her in a plain purple gown and styled her hair up with loose curls hanging down her face. They worked fast, by the time she had gotten her bearings, they were putting shoes on her feet and leading her out of the room.They made their way to the same dining room that Lena had met the other Luna's the night before, she was pleased she was able to walk on her own this time, her physical ability s
Bane POVFootsteps that did not belong in his palace echoed through the walls, escorted by his Beta and his head guard. Emperor Bane looked up from the papers on his desk and waited This should be interesting His Lycan, Dorian said excitedly They smell of fear, one wolf and one...White bear, both Alphas. He reported.Bane had the door opened before Beta Simon could even finish knocking, the two Alphas rushed into the room and dropped to their knees in respect. "Your majesty" The wolf said, his voice breathless "We need your help".Bane's eyes narrowed as he studied the men, no one entered the Lycan kingdom unless they were summoned, and certainly not to ask for help, Bane knew only too well that the packs of his realm preferred to fix their own problems,with his curiosity peaked, he decided to hear them out. "Why have you entered my lands without an invitation or official request?" He asked the still kneeling Alpha's. "Speak quickly now".The bear answered first, his voice was grave "
