**LUCIEN**
As I am getting ready to go see Monica and have this damn dreaded talk, I keep thinking back to what the Moon Goddess said.
She is a descendant of the Moon Goddess. Okay I got that. Which means her kids are full blooded Alpha werewolves. Not half as I thought. It’s probably because they are so young that I thought they were only half.
She has no powers, no extra strength, or anything to help her in her fight to being the descendant of the Moon Goddess who can turn regular supernaturals into pure blooded werewolves. Unless, somehow or another she unlocks some type of power or strength. I don’t know why the Moon Goddess wouldn’t give her any powers right out the gate when she knew what she would face. She said she could be hunted, and people would be after her? Why woul
**LEON**After Lucien fell asleep and I put him to bed, I went home. So much on my mind, so much to do. Talon Rodriguez, the Alpha of Black Night pack. He comes from a long line of cruel and disgusting Alpha’s but the word through the pack grape vine, Talon has no crimes against him. All the previous Alpha’s of the Black Night Pack were cruel to their Luna’s. Treating them as property, as items that can be used for the production of heirs, abused at their will. It’s disgusting. But just to be sure that if this situation between Talon, Monica and Lucien is brought to the public I need to have as much proof as possible. Talon told all the Alpha’s that his Luna had a sickness that wouldn’t allow her to be around others, and that he had to keep her locked in their home so she didn’t get sicker. That their children were also affected by the sickness. I get to the packhouse and it’s late so everyone is probably asleep. I go into the kitchen to grab s
**LUCIEN**I was a little taken back by Angelina’s outburst asking if she was a wolf. But I won’t lie to her. I could see the color drain from Monica’s face, it wasn’t something she was expecting to hear. But I figured once we went to the park and the kids were playing, Monica and I could talk. And I could explain how everything is, and tell her all I know.Angel and Monica held my hand the whole way to the park, I even had to stop and put Lincoln on my shoulders because he felt left out. Monica is holding on tight. I can hear her heartbeat pounding in her chest. Her anxiety is going nuts. I probably should have diverted the question Angelina asked but I didn’t want to lie to her.I leaned over and whispered in her ear. “I know you're freaking out a littl
**MONICA**My head is spinning from everything that Lucien is telling me. But how can I not believe it when the man bursted into a huge ball of wolf right in front of my eyes.I still have so many questions. Selene coming to me, being the Moon Goddess, telling me things like Lucien is my destiny. She created him for me. But then Lucien tells me he has had a second chance mate that rejected him. If Selene thought that I would die with Talon, why would she pair him with someone who wouldn’t see how amazing he was?And what is really throwing me is the fact that I have two small children who are werewolves, and I didn’t even know it. What would have happened when they shifted into a wolf when they got older? I would have had a heart attack and died, that’s what. I look
**LUCIEN** We get to my house, and I realize that Monica hasn’t been inside yet. Luckily, I’m not messy, but it’ll be the first time I let another female into my home. I hesitate at the door. And she rubs my arm. “Is everything okay?” She whispers as Angel and Lincoln are running around looking at the plants on my deck. “You don’t have any women to hold up in here do ya?” She says laughing, wiggling her eyebrows at me. “Absolutely not.. The only other person that has been in my home is my brother. And this is new for me. Having someone I care about over.” I said in a whisper. She blushes with a huge smile on her face. She slightly pushes me out of the way and turns the knob
**TRIGGER WARNING**CAUTION: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS A RAPE SCENE IN ALPHA TALON’S POV... IF YOU WISH TO NOT READ THIS SCENE, PLEASE SKIP TO LUCIEN'S POV FURTHER DOWN IN THE CHAPTER. Thank you!!**TALON**“Shut the fu.ck up with your whining, you little slut…” I growled at the woman I am pounding my dick so deep into that she is screaming and begging me to stop. Pounding her cunt from the back, with her back on my desk. I have her hands tied away from either of us. I don’t want her holding me. I started pulling on her hair so hard that I can hear the strands popping from her scalp. Tears ran down her face, she is crying for me to stop…“Please… Pleasee… STOP!!” She pleads but I don’t listen.
**ALORA** In the car back to the packhouse it’s quiet. I really enjoyed meeting Monica and I can see why Lucien is crazy for her. I am so happy he found such a beautiful person inside and out. He deserves it more than anyone I know. But having to deal with Carrie just left a bad taste in my mouth. I know, I shouldn’t be jealous, but how could I not be? The man I have wanted since I started liking boys could possibly be having a baby with someone else… “Lor, what’s wrong bunny?” Leon asked me from the driver's seat. He doesn’t take his eyes off the road, but his brow is furrowed. I can tell he is worried I am upset with him. I’m jealous, but I’m not mad. Carrie was before me. I can’t blame him for that. “I’m alright, honey. Just feeling a little jealous. Which is weird for me. But don’t worry, I'm not upset with you.” I say honestly. I grab his hand and intertwine my fingers. His huge hand is swallowing my small one up. “I can’t even begin to apologize for the predicament that y
**MONICA**After Lucien marks me and I come down from my high, I want to tell him how I am feeling. He starts growling in what seems like agony, but I can only feel whatever it is as an uncomfortable sting. He keeps scratching at his neck as Ragnar’s claws protrude from his fingertips. Drops of blood seeping from his skin, and all I want to do at this moment is make him feel better. I hate seeing him like this; in pain. I can’t let him sit in pain like this. No fear comes close to the need I am feeling to stop him. I grab his hands and place them on my hips. Ragnar’s claws dig slightly into my skin as Lucien’s grip tightens on my waist. His eyes are closed, almost sealed shut, his forehead creased, and eyebrows furrowed in deep agony. I know he doesn’t mean to but his claws pierce into my skin, sending a shooting pain up my hips and back that causes me to wince. Pushing the pain aside, I focus on him and my need to take his pain away. The pain I am feeling is less in comparison to wh
**LEON**Walking into the room, I realize that Alora was right to trust her instincts. The smell of a rotting corpse that I know too well is emanating from the bathroom. It’s not a smell you forget. Even with a body that just dies throws off a certain smell that you can tell they are gone. I can feel my body shaking with rage. I am so pissed. Who fucking DARED to come into MY LUNA'S room and place something or someone dead here?? Bruno is livid and rightfully so. If I didn't have any self control, he would have shifted and lost his sh.it on everyone. 'What the fuck do you expect, Leon?? My Luna is being taunted with a dead body.' He says as we inch closer to the bathroom. When I open the door, the roar that escapes my mouth shakes the whole packhouse. I hear Alora gasp and start crying.“Oh my fucking god!” She cries. “How could anyone do this?” She is trembling. She moves forward to the woman laying in the bathtub. Completely naked. Beaten to death with imprints of fingers wrapp
