Erik's POV
"Now Speak," I told Ian.
"They attacked her pack for a reason, Alpha. I think they're lingering here on our territory because of Luna. I didn't have the chance to know the reason but I know that they are trying to get her"
"THEY CAN'T HAVE HER! NOT ON MY WATCH!" I shouted. My body is now filled with anger. They can't have her, not now, not ever. I'll never let them get her or even touch her. She's so precious to me.
Let's kill them all, Erik
I blocked my wolf in my mind. I didn't want to argue with my wolf right now. I want information first. I don't want to risk the lives of my fighters.
"Find any information about this case. I don't care how, just find as much information as you can, Ian."
"I know Alpha. It's my job to keep our Luna safe". Standing up, Ian bowed and then exited the room.
I need to talk to Clara about this but I don't want to push her. Her pack has just been killed and I don't want to make her sad by remembering what happened. Maybe I should just ask Vincent. He must know something.
Vince?
Yeah?
What happened to the Hollow Angel Pack? I know they're trying to get her.
Who's trying to get her?
The Pack of Rouges.
I don't have the right to say it. Ask her Erik. I'm sorry
Okay
I blocked him now. Well, how do I ask her then? Should I ask her or wait for her to be ready? I really don't know what to do.

Clara's POV
I closed the book and massaged my eyes. I read too long. I looked at the time and saw that it was only 3 in the afternoon. I returned the book to the shelf.
*knock-knock*
"Come in"
I smiled when I saw the most handsome man I ever met enter the room. My godly mate, Erik, walked toward me with a smile.
Thank God he's our mate.
I laughed in my head. Yes, I'm very thankful for having him as my mate.
"How's your day Babe?" Erik asked as he kissed me on my forehead.
"It's okay. How's yours?" I asked.
"It's stressful at the same time. It's fine", I smiled at him. I stood up and my arms found their way to his neck as his arms found my waist.
Erik always looks at me with so much happiness in his eyes. We locked eyes and I felt the butterflies in my stomach. "I want to introduce you to the whole Pack"
My wolf jumped up and down in excitement while I felt excited, happy, nervous, and fearful. I was feeling mixed emotions and I didn't know what to say so I just smiled at him.
"I'll finish my paperwork while you go get ready," He said while swaying my hips, smiling.
"Okay," I replied. He kissed my forehead and exited the room.
I sighed," I'm nervous," I said to my wolf.
Relax. I know you'll be fine! They'll love you as I love you!
Thank you
This is why I love her. She may be immature, but she still supports me. Guides and Scold me like a mom. Talk/chat with me like a sister and fight by my side like a brother. I'll always be grateful that my wolf is Angeline.
~~~~~~~
I finished taking a shower and everything. I put on my strapless fishtail gown. I love gowns/dresses. I feel like I'm a princess. I'm girly, but not that girly. I was brushing my hair when someone burst into our room. She walks in with confidence like she's a tomboy or something. I think she's just boyish.
"Hi!" She says, hugging me.
She pulled away and I saw her eyes twinkle with excitement. "Hello?" I replied, confused by the sudden closeness.
"I'm Melissa! Erik's Cousin" Cousin? I thought all his family had died.
"Ow. Well, I'm the only one who's left", she says, seeing the confusion on my face.
"Nice meeting you, I'm-
"Oh, I know who you are! You're Clara Lee! Erik's Mate!" She squealed, cutting me off. I smiled at her. She's boyish and I think she's girly too.
"So let's go? Erik's waiting downstairs. You look beautiful, by the way", She winked. I let a laugh escape my mouth while we exited the room.

Erik's POV
I was thinking of introducing her tomorrow but I want my pack to know that she's my mate for extra caution. I don't want the mateless werewolves to look at my mate with lust and I don't want to kill them.
Agreed
Of course, my wolf will agree. He loved her already. I, of course, love her too.
Don't do anything stupid or anything embarrassing.
Whatever
As I was in a staring contest with my wolf in my head, I heard someone clear their throat and saw my cousin dash down the stairs. She seemed excited.
"You'll love it when you see it", she squealed.
"You're too excited about something," I said, sounding suspicious. I wished she hadn't done anything. Well, my cousin is absolutely a rebel, you know.
"Wait and see my dear cousin," She said, wiggling her eyebrows. I was about to reply when she pointed at the stairs with her lips. I turned around and looked at what she was pointing out and my mouth dropped open.
She's walking down the stairs with grace and confidence. She's like a princess, no. She's like a queen.
She's a goddess.
I agreed with my wolf. Yep, she's a goddess alright. She looked so beautiful.
"You should close your mouth" my cousin whispered to me fighting back her laugh and exited, running to the front door.
I closed my mouth and walked to her to help her walk down the rest of the stairs. She said thank you and smiled. God how I love that smile. She's so angelic and I just want to kiss her all night.
"You look beautiful" I whispered in her ear. She turned away, hiding her slightly blushed face.
"Thank you, you look handsome yourself", she replied.
"Let's go"
She closed her eyes to relax. She then opened her eyes, revealing her crystal blue eyes. She smiled and placed her hand on my arm. We then exited the house and headed straight to the pack house.
Clara's POVErik walks toward the stage, you can see the admiration the pack members have for him. Tapping the mic twice. He cleared his throat to gain everyone's attention."Good evening Everyone", Erik greeted the pack. I saw the pack bow their heads."After that incident, I have been alone. I managed to be where I am today because I have you guys, my pack. I have been leading you alone and I know that some of you are wondering if I'll ever find my mate, if not I'll have to force myself to do a contract marriage when force mating is done but fret now my pack!" Erik suddenly shouted the last words in his sentence which made me surprised. Erik stood there and looked at his pack members with warm eyes. After looking around his pack members he started to lift his hand that was holding the mic."Few of you know that I have found my mate and I am thrilled at this very moment to announce that I HAVE FOUND MY MATE!" He shouted the last part. After the crowd finished shouting and cheering th
Clara's POVAnd here I am enjoying the kisses he gives me. Am I ready for this?"Hmmm," I moan."Is it good my princess?" He said while kissing me from my neck down to my chest."Maybe" He stopped kissing me to look at me. I saw his eyes darken."It's not good to tempt me, my princess.""Am I tempting you?" I smiled at him.He immediately kissed me and here I am kissing him back.We were getting to the good part when "Erik!" We were interrupted by none other than my brother."What?" Erik answered. You can hear the irritation in his voice and I can see that he is trying hard to calm his wolf.My brother cleared his throat and fixed his posture. "Alpha, Rogue Attacks"Erik immediately changed his facial expression. The alpha mode is back on."Office" Erik. My brother then bows and then leaves. Erik then looked at me with the same facial expression."I'll talk to you later," Erik said using his alpha tone. I'm in awe of how hot he is while in the Alpha mode and it left me speechless for
Clara's POVI think it's time for us to tell our mateYes, sweety, I think It's time.We need to tell him what happened and why my old pack got killed. When we woke up this morning, Vincent Mind-linked Erik and told him that someone had been killed in our pack. We rushed to where the killing was done and saw blood marks. It said IT'S A WARNING.Klaus survived and escaped. How? Ian killed him!That's when I realized that I needed to tell this Erik. Someone from his pack got killed and he doesn't know the reason why, while I know the reason.Full of resolve. I rushed to Erik's office and slowly opened the door. There I saw him sitting behind his desk massaging his temples. He looked so tired in just a short time.I knocked and he looked at me. He smiled, motioning me to come near him."Hey, Babe," I told him while approaching him."What's wrong my princess?" Erik asked. I saw the worry in his eyes. I don't know if it's a worry for me or his pack. I feel guilty even more.Hugging him whi
Clara's POVAfter what happened yesterday, Erik didn't push me that night. When I confessed that I was the next Queen, he just hugged me and whispered My Queen. I let it all out that night when he said that. I cried until I don't have any tears left. He's just too good to be true. I love him and because of that night, I know that I'll be happy again.I came back to reality when I heard someone shouting. We are in the office of Erik to talk about what happened yesterday. Nobody asked about what I did they still treated me like before."Why is he alive, Ian?!" My mate Erik shouted at Ian. I touched Erik's hand for him to calm down."I don't know, I swear I killed him, Alpha," Ian said.WitchesWhat?I said they teamed up with Witches."Witches Erik" Everyone looks at me with surprised faces. Even if they give me those looks I am surprised myself. There is always a time when Angeline will just whisper a voice like she doesn't want anyone to hear what she was about to say. I didn't confro
Clara's POV"I'm scared ""Me too, but we have to trust our mate," Angeline said."I'm scared of that too." I know that I should trust my mate, I do. I do trust him, of course, it's just that I'm scared that if I trust him so much it will end up again like last time."Don't be scared, we will always be together" Angeline replied after a long silence."I know. You are me and I am you", I replied. Hearing these words always calms me down. It's our line, our chant for everything."Yes. We will always be one.""Babe?"I was startled by the sudden voice and saw Erik peeking at the door. I smiled at him and signaled him to come in. Erik walked toward me and I instantly hugged him. "What's wrong?" I asked."Your brother mind-linked me earlier and he said he got something about Tia."I stiffened at the name. I didn't expect him to find things about the witch who survived and was in hiding for a decade already. "Let's go," I said.Erik's POV"Let's go"There it is, her sudden change of tone. A
Clara's POV"Let's start shall we?"Erik smiled at us and motioned us to sit, but I walked towards him and stood beside him while we were facing Ian and my brother Vincent."Vincent, I want you to rest but we need to talk to Tia and my gut is telling me that this mission is for you", Erik ordered. I was confused about what Erik said, that it was like he was excited for Vincent, but on the other hand, my brother was about nervous."You scared bro?" I mind-linked Vincent. When he turned to me looking shocked, I smirked at him."Shut up Clara"And I think I should stop teasing him. He looked more scared now."Can you Vincent?" Erik asked when Vincent was not responding. Ian looked nervously at Vincent."Yes, of course, alpha" Vincent answered with a straight face and excused himself from the meeting."Protect her""Yes, of course, Angeline, we will protect her because we need her.""It's not me""What?"Angeline then blocked me out. Again, it's not her."Who are you?"I whispered in my h
Clara's POVI woke up, and hearing some voices in my head made me feel dizzy. I need to get used to this, and it was not like this when I was in the Hollow Angel pack. Maybe because I'm a Luna now?*sighed*Not seeing Erik in bed made me feel dejected, but I'm feeling in our link that he is stressed right now. I made my way to our bathroom to fix myself. After making sure I looked okay, I went straight to his office only to see him sighing.Erik saw me and smiled, but you could see in his eyes that he was feeling down. I also saw Melissa sitting in front of Erik. What did these two talk about that made Erik feel down while Melissa was full of worry?"Well, I'm off. I'll talk to you again about this matter soon." Melissa walked toward Erik and gave him a little hug. She then faced and walked toward me. "You should invite me for coffee. Our Luna," Melissa said while smiling. After that, she left in Erik's office. I made my way to Erik and hugged him. I can feel his sadness in our mate l
"The trees are quiet, indeed," Erik said while observing the forest. We are here in the mountains where Tia is living. We were about to send Vincent and Ian to try and talk to Tia to come in the pack but thinking of how nervous Vincent we decided to go and look ourselves. We asked Ellie, Erik's mom, together with Ian, to look after the pack while we were gone. Klaus has been quiet for the last couple of weeks, so we decided to make a move now."Where is it, Vincent?" I asked my brother. "It was here, but I can't pinpoint the exact location, not like last time," He answered while looking and sniffing around.I also looked around and saw branches of trees being swept by the wind while there were trees that didn't move. I followed the trees that had no movement, and I was getting deeper into the forest when it was getting harder to breathe."Angeline, do you find something?" I asked Angeline when I felt she was awake, and she was so focused."Go further to the right." I followed Angeline
