Adrian shrugged. "Beta Bartram and I haven't come up with anything. What about you guys?"Ashford glanced at Luna before he began speaking. "We have been thinking of what to do, but the first choice is to kill these creatures. We need the gammas; where are your gammas?""Indoors, after most of them were murdered. Beta Alex was the leader of the Gamma soldiers, but he is not here." Adrian pointed towards the road to the left. "We haven't thought of how to find the mysterious girl. I have to find Griffin; he must have an idea about it.""You don't have to find him." Luna returned the dagger to its cover. "He is already in Cruster Toon; we have to check if the rest is okay. We are enough to take down these creatures and..."No." Bartram shook his head. "They keep on increasing, and they come back to life. They are not dead; they are only unconscious and will wake up soon."Luna glanced at her father, her eyes widening in surprise, along with Ashford's. They had not been expecting that; th
Trevor stared at Phoebe blankly as the word left her lips. He couldn't believe what Phoebe was saying—did she mean that Griffin was her mate? It felt like he had been stabbed in the gut. He had always known that Phoebe had a huge crush on him. It was so obvious, but now that she found her mate, She brought him along with her because she had accepted him as her mate. Trevor knew he had to step back for them; besides, she might have accepted him, and he might find his own mate soon.You can't be mated to Griffin." Tristan's voice was loud as he glanced at Phoebe. "You can't do this.""Do what?" Phoebe asked. "I found my mate, and he is out there."Tristan glanced at Trevor with a soft look in his eyes. "Trevor?"Trevor peered back at Tristan. "It's awesome that she found her mate. I mean, little Phoebe might get married sooner and give us some pups."Phoebe's eyes widened as she heard that, but she managed to put on a straight face when he looked at her."Isn't that okay?" He asked. "It
Warmth filled Luna's chest; sparks flew as Ashford leaned in close, his lips brushing against hers for the first time. Butterflies danced in her stomach as he captured her lips in a kiss. His lips were soft against her own; she kissed him back, her hand moving from her sides to the back of his neck. His right hand was on her chin, while his left moved to her waist and pulled her close.Luna's eyes closed as theirs got intertwined in the kiss. All thoughts about the pack flew out of her mind, but then she thought about Adrian. A slight mistake: she was also mated to him, and kissing Ashford felt wrong. She pulled away from him, and her cheeks flared hot in embarrassment."I can't do this; it's wrong," she muttered.Before he could protest, she ran out the door, her heart racing in her chest. She could feel the heat in her cheeks as she ran down the hallway. He wasn't going to pursue her since he was in a towel. She had paid too much attention to getting to know Ashford without knowing a
As soon as Luna left, Ashford glared at Adrian. "If you think I would ever leave Kitten here alone, you are in for a dream," he said, his eyes narrowing and his anger palpable.Adrian returned his glare. "What do you mean?"Ashford walked away without replying, and Neon followed him."I am asking you a question," Adrian yelled at him. "Just wait and see; after all this dies down and I have my coronation, I am going to get married to her on the same day."Ashford ignored Adrian and went downstairs. Luna was sitting with Phoebe and Griffin, while Bartarm and Tristan were on the other side. Trevor and Lily were on another seat, and a seat was made for Adrian and Ashford. Instead of sitting on the chair, Ashford decided to sit beside Luna on the same chair as Griffin and Phoebe."Where is Adrian?" Tristan asked."He is on his way," Ashford replied."I'm here," Adrian said as he descended the stairs. "What are we talking about?"After everyone had taken their seat, Tristan began talking. He
Everyone stared at Luna as the light emitted from the staff surrounded her. Ashford grunted as he felt a pain on his forehead, and the mark on his head left his forehead and appeared on Luna's forehead. Immediately after the mark touched her forehead, Luna's eyes shone bright silver, and her grip on Ashford's hand was removed.She began floating in the air, and the staff brightened in three different colors. White, silver, and blue, Phoebe began flipping the book again and was glancing through the pages.Soon, Luna was coming down to the ground with the staff in her hand, and her outfit was replaced and changed into a long silver dress and matching silver heels."Woah!" Ashford gasped, his eyes trailing across her face and to her neck.Luna glanced at her hand as her legs touched the ground."Your eyes." Phoebe gasped. "What happened to my eyes?" Luna questioned."They are gray and white." Adrian replied.Luna smiled broadly, four pairs of fangs showing. Ashford walked in front of her
Luna's eyes opened in the dim, dark room; she was chained to a wall. She glanced around the room, trying to check where she was. She tried to get away from the wall, but it was impossible. She tried to use her power, but it was of no use. She glanced around the room, trying to remember where she was and why she was in the cell.She had been with Ashford and the rest outside, and she had killed all the creatures. Someone had knocked her out and brought her here; she couldn't remember anyone's face. There was a black smoke around them when she was knocked out."Ashford?" She called out. "Are you there?"There was no response.She tried to free herself again, but she suddenly felt weak. Weaker than she had ever felt, her body hurt as she tried again."Ashford?" She called again.She slapped herself for thinking that Ashford was near her. If he were, he wouldn't let her be chained to the wall like a slave. He couldn't do it, and then it hit her. She had been kidnapped by someone, and the o
"Whatever you want to do to me would never work." Luna snarled at the man in front of her. "You think taking my blood and using it to your own benefit is going to work as you thought? My mate is going to find you! And end you!"A slap hit her face, and the impact made her face move to the side. The chain gripped her hand tightly as she fell to her knees. Liquid filled her mouth, and when she spit it out, it was blood.Monsell bent to her height and cupped her face in her hands. His lips curled into a smile, and he pulled off his coat hat, revealing his face. Luna's eyes widened; his face wasn't what she thought it was going to be. His eyes were bright green, his hair was long and curly, and his jaw was chiseled. He was handsome, and Luna hated to admit it. He had a scar in between his eye sockets."You should learn to speak to me politely; do I look like a monster?" Monsell asked. "Your mate didn't try to save you the last time I took his sister, but your best friend appeared. He tried
"Now, start the initiation." Monsell repeated. "We have to get her on our side before anyone comes for her.""You are going to regret this!" Luna yelled.Monsell smirked at her. "Not really; you will belong to the Hybire soon."Everyone in the room stood to their feet, reciting a quote. The quote was so old that it was affecting Luna's ears. She covered her ears and began screaming; her ears began bleeding, and blood began streaming down her face. She screamed in pain as memories filled her head, starting from the time that he met her father to the time that she was growing up.Soon, the memories of when she met her mother began to fade away. She tried to grab hold of her mother, but everything disappeared. The only thing she could see was Monsell; he was smiling at her and taking her hand.The memories of when she was with Assy all faded away. Assy became Monsell, and he was in every scene that he was in. He was smiling at her and taking her hand, helping her with everything.Luna's e
