Moon’s pov “What happened? Why are we in the woods, Angela?” I asked my wolf. "O, you're back, Moon!" I was so confused that I started freaking out. I was in wolf form and wait, I was playing with Ronin. That is Ronin, right? What the hell was he doing here?! “Yes, it is. He remembers you.” Angela said happily. “So what happened?!” I shouted, confused as to why I was in wolf form in the middle of the night. All I remembered was everyone coming here and me giving a speech to the soldiers and their leaders. “I know it must be strange to see a mostly female pack, full with former rogues. It will take some getting used to. But I do have some rules. First of all, you might have your leaders, but in this pack, I am the Alpha. If you disrespect me, you can sleep outside of our borders with the rogues. See how long you’ll last. Secondly, this rule is as much as for you as for my own pack. You don’t enter anyone’s tent without invitation. Same goes for someone’s pants too, by the
Kai’s povMona didn’t come home until much later. I heard her enter her tent and it smelled like blood. Blood and her sweet caramel scent.“We should check if she’s okay.” Ronin said.“We should not. She tried to kill us. Again!” I growled.Ronin laughed, clearly mocking me. “I thought you would kill her if she even breathed wrong? Wasn’t that what you promised your father?! Yet you keep her alive. Maybe you believe her, just a little.”I ignored Ronin. He was right about one thing. I had said I would kill her in case she misbehaved. If my father found out she came to my tent and tried to kill me and that I had done nothing about it, he would think I was weak. That Mona still had a hold on me.It didn’t even occur to me to kill her. I ran after her, because I thought she was trying to seduce me. Why else would she come inside my tent wearing nothing? When she shifted and ran, I wanted answers. She was alone in the woods with me, so I could have easily killed her and blamed it on a rog
Moon’s pov Fucking Kai. I didn’t know he had such anger issues. But I couldn’t really blame him. He lost a lot, because of me and now he had to work with me. But still, if he had just tried to do things differently today, they wouldn’t have attacked him. I felt something inside when he was attacked, like this fear and Angela told me to find Kai. She knew too, that he was in over his head. Yes, he’s an Alpha. But that were still more than ten very angry rogues that all attacked him at once. We were done for today, so I let the soldiers rest and check out the camp. Maybe it was good for everyone who came here to see the Wolvin pack. We weren’t just a bunch of rogue females, there were families here, elderly, kids. We might look different, but a lot in our pack is the same as in any other pack. “I know it’s really bad timing, but Tabitha is here for you.” Racheal said, mindlinking me. I had gone to the river to wash myself. “Tell her to meet me in my tent.” I replied. I dried off,
Kai’s pov I could have just sent someone else inside her tent. I should have. But she is the fucking leader, whether I like it or not. So after I spotted a lot of rogues near the border, I went inside her tent to alert Mona. I thought she would wake up right away, but she kept sleeping. She was sleeping naked, in the middle of the floor. I had overheard her talking to that witch. She had probably gone to sleep in wolf form and shifted back in her sleep. “Overheard? You were listening on purpose. You even moved closer so you could hear the entire conversation.” Ronin growled. The conversation confused me. It wasn’t uncommon for packs to use witches, mostly for healing or protection spells. But this witch was helping Mona remember. Was she really that good of a liar that she could fool a witch? Or did Mona pay off the witch to pretend to go along with her story, so anyone listening would think Mona was telling the truth. “Because Alpha Moon has nothing better to do than try and tric
Moon’s pov I didn’t remember much after my speech. All I hoped was that, I would hang on long enough for the rogues to leave. If they saw me collapse, it would ruin the speech. “Well, you did say you would die for your pack.” Angela said. “I didn’t mean, right then. Like after fighting some more people.” I replied jokingly. I woke up in my tent, being covered by bandages and smelling like herbs. Tabitha had made us healing potions over the years, but I had never needed it until now. Usually my healing abilities were enough, but I was injured too badly. When I saw Racheal being attacked by that feral wolf and almost losing, I told her to go back. She refused, telling me she could handle it. But I had already lost too many people in my life, I couldn’t loose her too. That fucking feral bastard took advantage of that moment and bit into my neck. A few inches to the side and he would have ripped half my neck out. I lay in my bed, feeling fucking exhausted. I wasn’t scared of someone
Kai’s pov “So will you finally tell me about Mona?” Clara asked me a week after I returned from the Wolvin pack. I hadn’t paid much attention to Clara. To anyone really. I focused on my training and I hunted at night, to avoid Clara. I knew she still wanted to know about Mona, but I needed time. I was still angry at myself for actually believing Mona for a second. Actually thinking she was trying to protect me and then she came up with this elaborate lie. Why would someone use a young girl to kill Kimiko and Mona’s mom? Why use Mona to seduce men and then blackmail them? There must be better people out there to use than Mona. And what the fuck was their plan anyway, because it didn’t make any sense. Probably because the whole fucking thing was a lie. “Yet, you’re thinking about it.” Ronin growled. “And you didn’t kill her. Again.” “Don’t remind me of my weakness.” I growled back. “Raider? Are you ignoring me now?” Clara asked disappointed. I still hadn't answered her question, I
Moon’s pov After the attack and everyone from the other packs left, we started packing up. I contacted Alpha Malcom and he let Racheal and some others visit, so they could check out the land, while I was still healing. I trusted Racheal to pick the right area and she came back really excited. Alpha Malcom had been very helpful and the area was beautiful. He had even offered us to help us build some houses in the near future. We decided to send our kids, families and elderly first. Alpha Malcom would send men over to help us move and I assigned most of the soldiers to accompany them. It was a long journey and I didn't want anything to happen to them. I would stay behind with a few others, so we could finish up clearing out the rest of the stuff and wait for the rogues that wanted to join us. We wouldn’t let them in our pack unless they would follow our rules, but they could form their own community in a small area of our land. Now all that was left to do was the fucking ritual. Tha
Moon’s pov I didn’t have time to think about what I saw during the ritual. What I remembered. If I would, I would break. I could already feel some cracks in my foundation. I needed to focus on something else, because I’d be no fucking use to my pack if I broke down now. I didn't need to mindlink the people at our new location. I knew if we were attacked it would have to be here. Our pack was vulnerable. We didn’t have enough people there and there was no magical border while the witches were working on me. It had to be our old packground that was attacked. When I got the confirmation that it was indeed our pack, I wondered who’s link I felt break. There wasn’t just one, there were several people dead. What the hell had happened?! “Don’t blame yourself.” Angela tried to say, but she knew it was already too late. This was my fault. I was their Alpha and I put my own needs first. Racheal and I shifted and the witches followed behind us. I had asked Tabitha if she would ride on my ba
