We had managed to find the car just as the sun broke over the horizon. There was no sign of Hannah anywhere. Her phone had been tossed in the passenger seat without the battery. My wolf whimpered and paced inside my mind as thoughts of my mate leaving me raced through my head. I paced anxiously around the car waiting for Jax to return with the right battery for her phone, hoping once we powered it on, we would find a clue to her whereabouts.
“Found one boss!” Jax grinned as he jogged to where I was pacing. “Lucky for us they had a phone place inside.”
I fumbled with Hannah’s phone for a moment
I collapsed onto the bed, exhausted. Tristan had fought against me training the first few days I had been home, but I finally wore him down. The end result was training with him and the best warriors in the pack, and none of them held back. News of Xi’s movements was suspiciously lacking as well. I knew she was up to something, especially since I managed to escape before she could have the results of my blood tests. Knowing she was still out there was the only thing that convinced Tristan to allow me to train. I was training and learning how to be a Luna from the early morning until I collapsed into bed in th
I showered and dressed in a haze. Tristan said he loved me; I was over the moon. I was caught up in replaying the memory in my mind that I was late reaching the training grounds. My birthday and Luna ceremony weren’t an excuse to take a day off from training. Toby shot me a knowing glance as I took my place beside him. “Happy Birthday, Han.” He leaned over and squealed into my ear. Jax shot me a scolding look before calling training to order. A collective groan rolled across the training field as he added an additional five miles to our training run due to my tardiness. Thankfully, Toby was the only one s
Cam grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to my rooms with Barb, Taylor, and Toby flanking me. The common room devolved into a flurry of shredded clothing and wolves as, all around us, the pack shifted to defend me. I managed to catch a glimpse of men swarming into the house wearing the royal seal as Cam forced me up the stairs. I was herded into my room before Taylor began shoving furniture in front of the door. “What is going on?” I cried, looking at them one by one. “We don’t know Hannah; royal guards have breached the pack house. We don’t know why.” Cam spoke quickly. “Our prior
“Alpha Tristan, you are under arrest for attempted bodily harm to a member of the royal guard.” Xi sneered as her men placed me in silver cuffs. I knew this woman was untrustworthy, she was up to something sinister and this was a way to cover her tracks. I only wondered what had taken her so long to make a move. I had been waiting for her to do something, anything, for the last two weeks. At least she had waited long enough for Hannah to be made Luna. I knew the pack would be in good hands with her while I found a way out of this mess. The bitch hadn’t thought to take Jax into custody with me, so I
I found myself chained in more silver when the fog of pain cleared my mind. My wrists and ankles now throbbed from the burning cased by the silver against my bare skin. I groaned as I sat up, the silver had forced my wolf into hiding and I was feeling the soreness from the tussle with Owen. Lightheaded, I gingerly moved to relieve myself before collapsing back onto the metal cot. I needed to think. There had to be some way out of this mess. Xi couldn’t hold me for long before she would have to present me to the King for sentencing. As if summoned by my thoughts, she appeared outside of my cell, grinning sinisterly at me. Through my half-closed eyelids, I could see she w
“It is more important than ever that we train.” My voice carried across the training grounds with more confidence than I actually felt. “If we plan to get our Alpha back, we must be ready for anything.” Jax nodded as I finished making my statement to the pack. He was still in charge of running training, but as Luna, it was my job to keep my people inspired and hopeful. Tristan had been taken twelve hours ago. I had taken the night to grieve before forcing myself to do what was required of me as Luna. I wanted to keep the pack running as smoothly as possible, training helped m
“It’s not what you can do for me, Luna. It’s what I can do for you.” The Alpha responded coolly. “What exactly would that be, Alpha Owen.” Jax snarled from behind me. “I suggest you hold your tongue Beta.” Owen snapped. “However, it has come to my attention that your Alpha has been taken into royal custody.”&
Taylor looked beyond stressed as I threw my arms around his neck from behind. We were in his office since the pack house was full of people, he said were from the Silver Moon pack. Hannah had been a bit of a taskmaster since they had arrived, bossing them around and increasing daily training sessions. Everyone in the house was exhausted and walking on eggshells around her, Taylor included. “What ya looking at?” I asked, pointing at the document pulled up on Taylor’s computer monitor. “It’s the tips we’ve been sent regarding Alpha’s whereabouts.” He sighed.
