Elizabeth POV We were walked to the waiting Beta’s office. Actually, it was more like a conference room with an office in the midst of it. Nothing like I had seen before. The furniture was very posh – all gold accents with polished meeting tables and desks. “Welcome,” the Beta says as he ushers us to the boardroom table in the middle of his office. “Please sit and enjoy the refreshments in front of you,” he says. There are sandwiches, desserts, beverages all placed in front of our spots. None for him, mind you. “You aren’t eating?” Carter asks pointedly. “I already ate, but please enjoy yourselves,” he gestures to the food. We all sit and take note not to eat the food in front of us. He nods slightly and jumps right into the conversation with us. “So, what brings you to us?” he asks. Carter looks at him before responding. “We wanted to meet with the King and Queen to discuss an urgent matter,” Carter replies. “I am happy t

Elizabeth POV We walked through the quiet halls of the palace. For some reason there was no noise. Like it was more of a museum than a place where people lived. Even the Omegas were scarce. “Where is everyone?” I ask the Omega. She looks at me in surprise, “Everyone was banished from the palace when the King and Queen were taken,” she whispers to me. “What is your name?” I ask her softly. “I have no name. You can call me Omega,” she says as she looks straight ahead. My heart aches for her. I know the pain of being less than others. “You must have a name,” I say to her. She looks at me, “Melissa,” she whispers before adding, “But do not call me that, please miss,” she begs. I nod my understanding as we walk through the doors heading outside. I see a big building ahead of us, “Is that the training arena?” I ask. “Yes, it is,” Melissa replies as she walks slowly across to the arena. Carter, Stan, and Kinsley have been quiet. Ca

Alpha Carter POV I watch as Elizabeth shifts into her silver wolf, Ashley. As she collides with the black wolf, I hear a collection of whimpers and fierce growls as they fall to the ground landing on their paws. They pace around facing one another as the black wolf looks ready to pounce. I know Ashley is taking her time. Allowing the uncle to exhaust himself before the fight even truly begins. The uncle leaps towards Ashley his jaws snapping. Ashley races to meet him pivoting so she kicks her back end out at his face. Her powerful legs clip his face breaking his jaw instantly. The black wolf howls in pain and falls to the ground. Ashley stalks her competitor waiting for him to rise again. He staggers to his paws and waits to see what Ashley will do. She moves forward quickly and swipes her front paw out slicing down the side of the uncle. It looks like she clipped his ribs with her claws. Again, the uncle howls starting to become enraged.

Elizabeth POV I do not know where the power came from; however, I felt I needed to be in that room. Everyone bowed their heads in respect for me as I slowly moved forward. The medical teams resumed working on the King and Queen in the room. I stood there simply looking at the man and woman. Both were difficult to identify. It was difficult because I had no idea what they looked like. I wanted to see someone who looked like me. Who made me feel like I belonged to them. I belonged with Carter and that would never change. I had never realized I had a strong desire to belong to someone. Someone besides my mate who would care that I existed. Someone who gave me a sense of family. I had thought I had that with the people I thought had been my parents. Until they let me go into the custody of Alpha Matt. Then I wondered what had happened. What I had done to deserve to be abandoned. I wondered what these people would think of me.

Alpha Carter POV I watched as Elizabeth processed what was happening around her. I wondered what we would do now that she had found her parents. I would need to get back to the Crescent Moon Pack to ensure all was fine there. I could stay a week at best. I would send Stan and Kinsley home while I stayed with Elizabeth and let her adjust to her newfound life. “What about my brother?” Elizabeth asks. Her parents try to look at one another; “He was injured in a rogue attack,” her father replies. “I wonder if that is true,” I consider. “What do you mean?” the father asks angrily. “With the efforts of the uncle, is it possible the attack was set up to make it look like rogues attacked him?” I ask. The father pauses for a moment while the mother sits back in her bed. “It is possible,” Elizabeth’s father mutters. “How could this man have infiltrated us so strongly? He had our trust all these years. He grieved with us when we lost Elizabeth; when
