Elliot’s Point of view
We look at each other, stunned.
"How long have you known?" I ask.
"Since I saw Alice's wolf. I was waiting for you to call me."
"Wait." Alice interrupts, "You're telling us you've known for months? Before we even knew about it? How is that even possible?"
"Let's just say that I knew Elliot was my General but I was very surprised when I saw that I was going to have two. That had never happened before!"
I frown. "Your General? I don't understand anything."
He sighs. "Well, let's take it from the beginning. What do you know about the mark on your wolves?"
I answer. "We just did some research and found out that the mark on the chest connects two mates that are in conflict and absolutely must stay together."
"Very good. What about the crescent moon?"
Alice’s Point of viewAs I walk into the packhouse, I find my mom in the kitchen."Hey sweetie. You're home late.""Yes, Cassie wanted to run.""I see." She smiles at me but I can tell she's sad."Mom, what's wrong?""I've been talking to your dad to convince him that the Reds aren't responsible but he won't listen."I press my lips together. I'd like to say I'm surprised but I'm not and although I felt remorseful about calling Prince Benjamin behind my father's back, his behavior towards my mother comforts me a little in my choice."Don't worry mom, I'm sure it will work out." I say with a confident smile."You know, I'm very proud of you."I frown. "What do you mean?""I'm proud that you don't let old resentment cloud your judgment. You don'
Alice’s Point of viewI have been staring at my coffee cup for more than 10 minutes now. I haven't slept all night, unable to take my eyes off the picture, as if I was going to find a hidden answer."Are you okay sweetie?" I jump violently when my mother touches my shoulder, making her laugh. "I know someone who didn't sleep all night."I shake my head. "Let's just say it's been a while since I've had a real night of sleep because of the rogues and last night was no exception. Dad and Alpha Mark were fighting when I got there. Thankfully, Elliot and I got them apart."She sighs sadly. "I'm afraid one day it's going to end badly."Just as I'm about to comfort her, my father storms into the kitchen, his cell phone in hand. His left arm is in a scarf because his shoulder was dislocated in the fight but it should be healed in a day or two.H
Alice’s Point of view"I'm leaving. See you tonight!" Says my mother while kissing my father."See you tonight my love.""Have fun mom!"Once she's gone, I get up and tell my dad I'm going for a run. Once outside, I take cover as quickly as possible to undress and change into my wolf, not forgetting to mask my scent. I don't want her to know that I'm following her.I run behind her car, making sure to stay at a safe distance. When I get close to the city, I pass her and change back into my human form to follow her on foot.I manage to follow her for a few minutes but I am no match for the speed of her car. Her engine becomes more and more distant and soon she joins denser traffic and I lose her.I try to go towards the pool but I realize quite quickly that she did not take this direction.I
Alice’s Point of viewAfter explaining everything to them, not mentioning our meeting and our hunting parties, of course, they remain silent for a moment, in shock."So the convocation at the Palace was not a coincidence." Says my mother."Are you angry with us?" I ask, contrite."No dear." Luna Lily replies. "Thanks to you, we are finally going to cooperate. You have done very well.""Thank you, Luna Lily.""Just Lily. Leave the title." She tells me with a smile."Don't tell dad." I say to my mom. "He'll be very upset and he'll think I betrayed him."She cups my cheeks to force me to look at her. "You thought of the pack before you thought of yourself or your father. Those are the qualities of a great Alpha. I am very proud of you." She says as she wiped away a tear that escaped my eye.
Elliot’s Point of view"We need to talk to them as soon as possible. Do you think your grandfather will be okay with telling you what happened?" I ask.She huffs. "I'll try anyway, but let's just say Grandpa James doesn't like me very much. I'd be very surprised if he would even agree to talk to me."I frown. "What do you mean by he doesn't love you?"She shrugs as if it doesn't matter, but I can feel she's hurt about that. Frankly, I don't understand. She's perfect!"Why?"She looks at me like I'm stupid. "Because I'm a girl, of course.""I don't get it. What's the problem?""It's so obvious! He wanted a strong heir, a powerful male, and all he got was a fragile girl."Leo growls in the back of my mind. How could her grandfather think such a thing?"You're not
Elliot’s Point of viewI walk home dragging my feet. Leo is angry with me because I hurt Alice's feelings and I feel terrible. First thing in the morning I will go to her and apologize. This decision does not appease Leo and he cuts off communication between us.I knock at Owen's room but he doesn't answer. I do it again but still nothing."Owen, where are you?" "In my room. Why?" "Because I've been knocking on your door 20 times, and my fists are embedded in it!"He finally opens the door and I see the dark circles under his eyes."You look like shit."He turns around and walks over to his desk. "If it's to tell me sweet words like that, you can go back."I walk in and close the door behind me while he puts his headphones back on and continues playi
Elliot’s Point of viewAfter telling everything to Owen and Simon, I make a detour to my room. Even if Alice had camouflaged her smell, I prefer to take a shower to be sure that absolutely nothing remains. Grandpa Georges has a real detector in his nose. He knows if you stay too long near a Blue. A real superpower.In the shower, I think about my friends' reactions when I told them my mom and Luna Mary's story. Owen didn't say a word but Simon was ecstatic. The fact that the Moon Goddess was so involved and that She had already tried to bind our packs drove him crazy.Simon went into Sherlock Holmes mode and already had a notebook with all the evidence and theories he had. Owen then called him an idiot for writing it all down in a notebook that anyone can find and read. So we destroyed it.We also learned that Simon and Melanie had decided to accept each other. He was all
Alice’s Point of viewI am so angry. Who does he think he is to give me orders like that? Forbid me to go and see this mysterious source? I'm dreaming!I walk towards the campus, with an angry step. I pass a few people who look at me strangely. A girl on the phone looks me up and down with an evil look."What? You got a problem?" I bark.She looks at me with a scornful look and as if to sneer at the person she is talking to."You need to calm down! Geez, it's a wonder which one of us is the wild beast." Says Cassie."She pissed me off!" "She was just walking. That's just your ego getting hurt." "That again! It's not an ego thing at all! And I don't understand you approving like that. You're an Alpha damn it! You shouldn't be as angry as I am, if not more!"
