Leah’s POV
I called in several Crescent Moon gammas and omegas to help with tending to the wounded. Many have cuts and bruises that will heal within hours due to our fast healing. Others had deeper cuts, most likely from claws and fangs that needed to be treated before we let them heal to fight off any infection.
All of a sudden the lights flicker, flash bright and then go out for about a minute before flicking back on. Several yells of surprise and screams erupted from the people all around me. This was one of the things the three of us kept to ourselves, even our team didn’t know what Elyse had been up to until now.
“It’s alright everyone.” I’m shouting over the din of voices. “Enough! I let out my alpha com

Damien’s POV“What was that all about?” Demitri questions me as we walk through the tunnels“What was what?” I say not looking back at him trying to avoid this conversation altogether until I have talked to Leah“Seriously?! You’re going to pretend that you haven’t kissed her twice today and keep playing flirty like she's your mate and not Jessica?” Ah my brother, always the blunt one.“It’s complicated, alright. And Jessica isn’t my mate, not my Goddess given mate.” I tried to leave it at that, hoping he would drop it, but this is Demitri.“What?! How do y

[Present]Damien’s POVThere is a green haze covering the whole clearing and the humming is getting louder, but the haze is too thick to clearly see who or what is making the sound, just a dark form in the center. I took a step in to try and get a better view, I realized very quickly I made a mistake.The air thinned out and turned icy cold, my throat constricted and I couldn’t make a sound, but I was still able to take a breath. My vision started to tunnel and I dropped to my knees as a tall slender figure rose up from the center of the clearing and started to walk towards me. She has raven black hair that is completely straight and falls to her waist. Her pale grey, almost white eyes and pale skin give her a deathly look and her small

[Present Day]Leah’s POVElyse and I are pacing in the tunnel that leads to the girls dorms, grabbing a quick snack and coffee that one of the omegas thought to bring in for us. Thank Goddess these people have their heads on straight because I feel like I’m losing mine.“Where the hell did they go?” I all but screamed “The search party was supposed to round our wolves up and burn the rogues and look for Ellinore while they were out there. How much longer until our surveillance is back up and running?”“It should only be another ten to fifteen minutes now. We weren’t prepared for the power surge Bertha gave us.” Elyse says to me in a slow clam voice, like o

Leah’s POV“You crazy little bitch, I should have known to put you in your place years ago. How dare you kidnap and lock up an Elder, you will never have any authority in this pack.” Erik snarls as he lunges at me.I dodge and roll to the side, just as someone else jumps at me while my focus is occupied by Erik. I took a blow to the head that sent me crashing to my stomach, but nothing I haven’t had before. I guess growing up with physical punishments as a general rule and practice has its merits in some situations. I feigned injury as my attacker went to grab my hair and I rolled, grabbed his wrist and reversed our positions. I had Elder Seamus pinned face first into the floor with one arm twisted up as high as I could force it while he laid there unable to move but with an oddly triumphant look mixed with the pain on

Leah’s POV“We’ve found her on our surveillance, she’s hiding out. It seems like she’s looking or waiting for something, come and look.” Tammy, one of our lead omega communicators, speaks quickly in one breath. “She’s over near the Concordat border by the Red Claw and Blue Moon crossing.” pointing to one of our many screens.“What the hell?” Elyse exclaims. “How did she get all the way over there?” She looks at me confused.“No idea, but she was the main designer on the tunnel system, she knows it like the back of her hand and she knew you were going to set off Bertha, so she probably took off just to get out of range and ended up there. But, why hasn’t she checked in? That’s not like her, an

Damien’s POV“This one is already of use to me and will be more effective in the coming weeks. He should not have been involved in your ridiculous games.” Alpha Max snaps at, I assume, the witch standing off to my left, but out of my line of sight. I couldn’t place it out in the woods, but her scent is different. I’ve never been around a witch before to know what scent markers they have to distinguish them from other creatures, but she has the faint scent of a wolf that isn’t someone else's scent on her. Maybe she is mated to a wolf and I am smelling her mate's scent since they blend when a couple is fully mated. If not that, could she be a hybrid?“He stumbled upon me, my lord, as I was casting enchantments as you instructed. He was strong enough to sense and cross through my protection barrier, I decided i

Leah’s POV“Alphas?” Tammy asks for our attention. “I know it's not my place, but I was thinking, while we were waiting for all of the systems to come online, about the problem we are having communicating with the groups we have sent out to retrieve our fallen.” She hesitates like she’s going to be in trouble.“Tammy, it’s ok, if you have any idea that might help us we want to hear it, no matter how crazy or out there it may be. You never know what could be useful. We want to know what you’re thinking.” I encouraged. Trying to break these omegas out of the habit of believing their thoughts and ideas are worthless has been a chore. The one thing that Elyse, Ellinore and I all agree on is that all contributions are helpful. Every project we have in place has been aided by id

Ellinore’s POV“Oh Shit! Flare, what are we doing here?” I ask my wolf. We were just heading to a tunnel to run for safety after hearing Elyse got the all clear to set off Bertha. I did not want to be in range of that thing at full blast. I had the pleasure of not believing Elyse when she designed the thing so she challenged me to be the test dummy. Not one to back down from a challenge and really not afraid of whatever she had in that shoebox sized container, I accepted.[Rewind 2 years - Bertha testing and combat training]“Grunt…Umph.” Is all I can say as Leah flips me onto my back with a superior smile on her face. I twist up to sweep her leg, but she jumps back out of my reach. I use the momentum to roll myself up to my fe
