"What is he talking about?" I slowly asked with anger rolling off of me like a raging tide.

"I think I should lie down now. My concussion is acting up," Alpha Harvey said, making himself comfortable on the hospital bed.

"Don't do this."

"Don't do what?"

"I need you to act your age and not your shoe size for once."

"Fine," he sighed, pulling himself back up to a seated position. "As you know, I never found my mate, and I had no intentions to. Now that I'm older, my perspective has changed. I want to find a mate to keep my bloodline alive. I activated the Luna Games."

"Why would you do that?!" I yelled.

"Why shouldn't I? It's my right," he challenged.

"It's horrible. You have to be on some egotistical bullshit to want this! How will you be able to live with yourself with all the blood on your hands?!"

"You're too young to understand, kid."

"I'm not a kid any longer!"

"You're 17. You're a kid in my book for the next couple of days."

I angrily clenched my fists by my sides, try

  • The Luna Games   Covert Operations

    [Alpha Noah Harvey]The adrenaline in my system traveled through my body at the speed of light as I made my way to the clinic. I knew I was the last person Alpha Beaumont wanted to see, but time was of the essence. Alexus could be engaged in combat as I spoke. While I was disappointed in the Council's decision, I went into it knowing my requests would not be honored. I was at least grateful they were allowing a retrieval."Alpha Harvey, you can't go in there," a young wolf said while gently blocking the entrance to the clinic."Listen, I know you're just doing your job, but it's imperative that I see the Alpha. It's about his daughter.""Is Alexus in danger?""I'm fairly certain. You have to let me in. I won't disturb the Luna.""You're gonna make me lose my job and be exiled from the pack," the wolf drawled, permitting me to enter."Thanks, young man. May the Moon Goddess look down on you with favor.""I'll need it after Alpha Beaumont finishes tearing me apart. Don't make me regret

  • The Luna Games   The Council's Decision

    {Alpha Noah Harvey}I anxiously paced the platform, waiting for Councilman Richard to answer."Hello?""Good morning, Councilman Richard. I'm sorry to bother you.""You're no bother at all, young man.""I'm not a young man any longer.""Younger than my decrepit ass. I have one foot in the grave. How is the Luna Games fairing? You know I would've been there myself to support you, but that's too much excitement for me.""It's not going great. That is the purpose of my call. I discovered my mate right as the signal sounded to start the games.""Oh my," Councilman Richard sighed. "This is a mess. I'm assuming you're calling to get my permission to call off the games?""That's correct.""I'm sorry. I cannot do that.""Did I forget to mention she was a minor when she signed up? Technically, she's an illegal contestant. That should be enough grounds to cancel.""Your request is denied. While she may have been a minor when she entered. She wasn't a minor when it began. I'm sorry, Alpha Harvey

  • The Luna Games   Mate II

    {Alpha Noah Harvey}"Shit!" I yelled as I paced up and down the platform, running my hands through my hair. "She wasn't supposed to be here," I said a little louder than I anticipated."What do you mean she wasn't supposed to be here? Why is our daughter here?!" Alexander snarled, grabbing me by the lapels of my suit."I tried to warn you, but you wouldn't speak to me.""Warn me about what?""Alexus's intentions to participate in the Luna Games." Alexander reared back and punched me in the face so hard that I almost lost consciousness."Fuck you! You didn't try hard enough! My daughter can die out there! How did this happen?" he yelled."We were talking in the garden, and Alexus confessed her love for me. I told her I didn't return her feelings. She then threatened to join the games.""She confessed her love for you?" Alexander asked in disbelief."Yes...there's something I have to tell you.""I swear to God if you put your hands on my daughter, the Luna Games will be deactivated beca

    {Alexus}{One Minute Before Midnight}Alexus: I can't believe that worked.Elektra: I told you it would.Alexus: My concern is that you're too weak to shift. It would've been best to shift and then run a safe distance away to recover. I guarantee that all hell will break loose the moment the clock strikes midnight.Elektra: I can still shift; however, I won't last long in wolf form. Take a moment to inject yourself with the serum.I obeyed Elektra and discreetly stabbed myself in the thigh with the scent-masking serum, and in seconds, my scent faded away.Elektra: We will immediately shift and run as far as we can into the forest. We will have to seek shelter, preferably on high ground, like a tree, until I can recuperate.Alexus: Sounds like a plan.I tried to focus on Alpha Harvey's speech, but was distracted by the tightening in my chest. My eyes stayed on my parents' faces that held nothing but contempt and regret. It wasn't until that moment that I realized how selfish my actions

  • The Luna Games   Let the Games Begin II

    {Alpha Harvey}I sat on a throne on the platform, waiting for the Luna Games opening ceremony to begin. I nervously drummed my fingers on the arm of the chair, keeping an eye out for Alexus, just in case she decided to be stupid. I called her several times, but she never answered. I called both Alexander and Amari, but was sent to voicemail. All I could do was pray. "It's almost time for your speech," Beta Ryan whispered in my ear."This feels like a huge mistake," I whispered to my most trusted advisor."Yeah, most likely, but it's too late to turn back now. Knock 'em dead. Wait...maybe that wasn't the best thing to say," he replied after receiving a harsh glare from me.At that moment, Alexander and Amari climbed the stage."Alex! Alex! Alex!" I whispered, trying to get his attention. He swiftly ignored me and took a stand in front of the podium."Good evening, everyone. For those who don't know me, I am Alpha Alexander Beaumont, the leader of the Artemis Pack. I wish I could say i

    {Alexus}I waited a good thirty minutes before trying to slip away."Are you leaving already?" Tori asked curiously."Yeah, I think I've had one too many slices of cake," I lied. "Thank you guys so much for joining us and for the gifts," I said, standing to my feet."I will walk you to your room," Mark professed, standing from the table."Ewww, can you not?" Tara complained, shooing Mark away with her hand. "We got this covered. Plus, we need to have girl time anyway before the festivities begin tonight."I could've handled Mark on my own, but I was thankful that Tara jumped in. I wasn't in the right headspace to deal with Mark at the moment, and I probably would've said something really bitchy. Then, I would've had to apologize in front of everyone."Alexus, may I speak to you for a moment?" Alpha Harvey asked, making his way towards us."Sorry, but I'm not feeling well. Good luck tonight, Alpha Harvey.""Alexus!" he shouted."Alpha Harvey, your presence is being summoned. We have to
