All Chapters of Defiant Moon: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

*Parker's POV:*I reached the East Border in a matter of 10 minutes."What's going on?" I asked the one in charge of the scouting shift at this side of the pack.He turned to me and bowed. "Alpha, there seem to be more rogue ms tonight. This time it's different, the aren't trying to hide, as if they want us to know they are there."I then get a mind-link from the west. 'Alpha there are rogues surrounding the border. More than usual.'I got more mind-links from the other borders right after. This was all planned by the Rogue King. There's no doubt about it. One thing was on my mind. I needed to get to Jasmine.I began barking orders. "Triple the scouting! Make sure no rogue enters my territory," I growled.I then shifted to my wolf and sprinted home. I hoped she listened to me and didn't wander into the woods.I shifted back into my human form and ran up the steps of the porch of our house. I stopped midway when I noticed keys in the lock. I pushed the door open, my heart pounding in m

*Parker's POV*I sat with my head between my hands. My hair is messy from running my hands through them numerous times.I sent some of my best warriors in the direction that Jasmine's wolf gave me. I prayed to the Moon Goddess that they are going the right way.'Anything yet?' I asked through the mind-link.'No, Alpha,' someone responded.Not at all satisfied with the answer, I stood up from my desk. Without looking at the door, I knew someone was there."What do you want, Peyton?" I asked."Just checking up on my twin," she replied. I looked up and saw her leaning against the door frame.Her eyes softened when she took in my state. "We're going to find her. I'm sure of it," she reassured me.We tried to get some information from Dakota, but he didn't know anything. All he told us was that those who left the hideout were drugged so they couldn't remember the way back just in case they were betrayed."Jasmine is strong and I know that she is ok," Peyton murmured as she came up beside m

I sighed, a smile gracing my lips as I leaned under the warm water beating down my back. It felt amazing to finally be able to be clean. I watched dirt mixed with water flow down the drain. I washed off the cuts and all the dried up blood off my skin.After cleaning and showering, I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body. I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I cringed at myself. My skin looked paler and I looked thinner. My eyes were dull and lifeless. I stared at all the scars on my body.I didn't know what to think about it. I continued to stare at them. I thought about how I survived all this.The scars will remind me that I survived.I heard a knock on the door. I walked over to it and opened it. Parker stood there, leaning against the frame. His eyes swept over my body, his eyes slightly darkening."Can I help you?" I asked with a slight smirk on my face.Parker looked back up at me and scratched the back of his neck. "Uh, I just came to check up on you," he

[1 Year Later]"Come on, Parker. I'll be fine," I huffed, crossing my arms over my chest. Parker narrowed his eyes on me."You have to go to this meeting. It's very important. Besides, I'll have the girls here if I need anything," I assured, cupping his face in between my hands, and placed a kiss on his frowning lips.His stare moved down to my stomach then back up to my face, his eyes softening a little. He slowly nodded his head while brushing his hand over my stomach."Okay, I'll go. But if anything happens, make sure to call me."I nodded my head and smiled, placing another kiss on his mouth before he turned away and got into the black car.I watched the car leave and felt a heavy weight being placed on my shoulders. Maybe he shouldn't have gone, I was due pretty soon and I didn't want Parker to be gone when the time comes."Don't worry, he'll be back," Peyton said from beside me. I didn't say anything but nod."Let's get you back inside, it's so hot out here," she said, placing a

Music pounded through the speakers and we pushed through the crowds of people dancing, drinking, and having fun.I grinned when I saw Justin leaning against the wall with a cup in his hand. He was talking to Eric, the football team captain. Justin wasn't into football, but more of a basketball player.He gave me a smile when he noticed me and pushed off the wall."Hey, Ana," he greeted me as he approached me. He pulled me into a hug, placing a kiss on my cheek.I've had a few boyfriends in my past. Some were pretty good and some were pretty bad. But Justin had been the best one and I'd never been more happy.He treated me well and was sweet, funny, and very good looking. He definitely had a lot of girls after him."Hey," I greeted back, returning the hug.My wolf had no problem with me dating a human. In fact, she was quite fond of him because he treated us right. But she really wanted me to tell him our secret."Where'd your friends go?" He asked, looking behind me. I glanced back an
