Dylan POV.
I ended up waking with a loud gasp, my breath came out in panicked pants and my body shot up allowing my head to dart around the room trying to make sure I was back at the lake, only I was met with the interior of the medical tent. A constant rhythmic beep was going off, but in my panic it seemed to increase in speed.
Next to me, sat on a chair was Lewis. His head rested on the bed in slumber but his hand was on mine, holding it loosely. Why I had been bought back to the hospital like area was beyond me but at least I was no longer in that limbo place the moon goddess had sent me to.
My eyes uncontrollably streamed with water, and my breath was uneven, i had no idea why I was giving off this type of reaction, but it didn’t really matter, I guess my emotions had a mind of their own when it came to lycanthropy matters.
I didn't even think about what I was doing before I sort comfort from the only person present. I pu
Dylan POV"What if it was the moon goddess who turned me?!""The goddess Luna doesn't exactly go around gifting everyone who asks, Dylan, She hasn't changed anyone in centuries." He stopped suddenly and let his eyes widen. "Hang on... I thought you didn't believe in the moon goddess..." He looked at me skeptically, studying my features for any sign of truth that validated his thought process. "You haven't simply been sleeping for the past six days, have you... you asked me if you looked different... Dylan, did you ask her if...""NO!" I cut him off quickly. I didn't, and I never would ask for her help. "She asked me... she said she wants me to be her envoy on earth.""I'm sorry..." You could tell that the information hit him like a brick, in the way that you aren't really sure what had actually hit you. "What did you just say?" I grunted a very unflattering grunt and threw my hands onto the top of my head out of stress."The moon
Dylan POV.It had been three hours since I had woken up, the weight of everything was still reeling in my head as both myself and Lewis made our way to the safe havens entrance. I was wearing Lewis's T-shirt and shorts, which hung off my like a tent due to their largeness and my malnutrition, a beanie hat, which was provided by a different wolf, tucked my hair up and kept it from wafting in the wind, and some plain black pumps adorned my feet, which were a size too big curtesy of V. Every inch of me was covered in scents that weren't my own in order to conceal my identity until we got to the rebellions pack house."Are you sure you're ok with this?" Lewis asked me for the billionth time. "We can wait a few days until you are feeling more like yourself." I just nodded my head, and squeezed my hand over his conjoined one."I'm feeling more like myself now, than I have in a very long time. If we keep putting this off then things will never start m
Dylan POV."Let's go meet the alpha!" I stated only to have Lewis quickly launch his feet off the floor and begin running at full pelt. The speed he was going at was just insane and another laugh came from my own jaws.It felt like I was lighter than air, the fun I was having was unmatched as my stomach gained a light butterfly feeling at the excitement.It honestly felt like we were flying through the wooded area that surrounded the pack house that we were visiting. I never in a million years would have thought I would do anything like that, but I enjoyed every single moment of the ride.By the time we got to the entrance of the house, Lewis slowed and I released my tight grip on him. I gently smoothed out the soft blonde fur from the clumps it had formed in my hands, I actually felt slightly guilty because it must have been pulling painfully the entire time and yet, he didn't once complain.I suddenly felt a thousand pairs
Dylan POV."You're G... I get it, G for Gilliard... you helped me to make and distribute the counterfeit milk tokens." His eyes widened drastically as he looked me up and down in disbelief."You're R?" He was very confused by this point not that I blamed him of course. "But what does the R stand for?""R for Riley as in Dylan Riley... It's nice to Finally meet you... Gilliard." I smiled genuinely at the man in front of me. I had no idea that the alpha that was in charge of this pack, and heading the rebellion itself would be the one stood in front of me currently."Why not use the initial D?" His mate asked with an amused smile as the alpha gently took the cell out of my hand and placed it on the desk once more."Well, people tend to get the wrong impression when an unknown number is saved in someones phone as D... it could mean anything couldn't it?" I chuckled at the insinuation and instantly was met with looks of un
Dylan POV.What was my plan exactly? Maybe I hadn't thought it through enough. "I think..." Again I was cut off... by a young woman who burst into the office, panic sweeping over her feature as she looked from one person to another, before settling her eyes on me..."Your grace, Beta Oliver has just entered the sectors borders... Alpha, my brother said that he has picked up queen Dylan's scent." That could only mean one thing... King Josh knows where I am, and with that notion my eyes widened in fear. My hands began trembling, however I couldn't show any sort of weakness right now, the king was far from me yet, right now our biggest issue was Oliver. The kings lap dog. "Alpha, what should we do?" The girl looked panicked, and judging by the commotion that was coming from outside the office door, I'd say the rest of the pack was panicking too. "Alpha!?" He didn't have any idea about what to do, neither did Lewis. As for me, in the time that it had taken everyone to suddenly become
Lewis POV"I knew you'd be good at this." I absentmindedly spoke the truth about what I had witnessed my girl doing. She was amazing at keeping her composure in situations that demanded a clear head. "I always did say that you were a born leader.""How come no one is questioning it?" At first I had no idea what she was talking about, I couldn't fathom what she thought everyone should be doing, then it hit me, she didn't understand why nobody refused her orders. I knew this to be true by the bewildered shock showing on her face. "Surely everyone must be wondering why we are suddenly attacking the borders." "I'm sure they are, but, although they might not know why you're ordering it, they know that you have everybody's best interest at heart, you wouldn't ask anything that wasn't beneficial or important." Dylan had this aura about her, despite her frail malnourished frame, her mind and determination were unmatched, she had this unique ability to keep command over situations that were c
Oliver POVMy leg absolutely burned as Lewis dragged me through the district, never in my wildest dreams would I have expected that girl to shoot me the way she did. Especially not with silver. It was like she had become completely unshakeable in the weeks she had been away, after everything that josh did, I admit, I thought she would fold as soon as she saw me. I assumed he had squashed her fight, but seeing her here, only made me realize how strong the girl actually is.“I was right about you two.” I stated quietly to the man I call friend. Sure a lot had happened, and I couldn’t understand the situation entirely, but one thing was clear, Dylan was Lewis’s mate. “You’ve chosen her!”“She chose me…” was his simple reply, however in hind sight there was nothing simple about it, she had chosen him, him but not Josh. I couldn’t understand how a girl could turn down her goddess given pai
Dylan POV I felt so guilty for sending so many people to fight for the border to be compromised. I mean, both humans and wolves went to aid my orders and close the sectors borders alone, while I simply chased after the singularity, the royal bets, who was actually much easier to apprehend than I had originally presumed. My thought process caused a thick knot to form in my chest given how selfish that sounded. Why should I be giving orders to people if I myself was unwilling to help with them? Everything in me was telling me that I should have gone with them. So as soon as I knew Oliver was incapacitated by Lewis, I left, and with my gun still firmly in hand, I approached the battle field. Was it a stupid idea? Definitely, and there was no way in hell that I was actually strong enough to last in a fight against a lycan, although I suppose I had done so in the past when I possessed an even weaker constitution. I guess adrenaline really was an amazing thing to possess in times of stre
