The Moon Luna

Addy’s POV “Addy run to the packhouse and get to the lockdown room.” My dad yells at me as we are running out of our house. It’s midnight and our pack is under attack from rouges. “Dad no, I can’t leave you.” “Addy I am not asking; I command you to go.” I watch as my dad turns back around and runs into the fight. I haven’t shifted yet, so I can’t fight. I start running towards the packhouse when I am cut off by a rouge. My dad suddenly tackles the rouge down and rips his throat out. I look around and see more rouges starting to come towards us. He gets between me and the rouges, several other warriors build a barrier between the rouges and me. My dad turns to yell at Gamma Blake, “Take the Luna to the packhouse NOW!” I look around looking for Luna Maria and I don’t see her, suddenly I feel Gamma Blake throw me over his shoulder and carry me to the packhouse. Why is Gamma Blake carrying me, Dad said to take the Luna? I look back up over Gamma Blakes shoulder and see m

Braxton’s POV Tristan and I leave dads office after a long meeting on some of the preparations on the transitions of pack leadership. We both head towards my office in silence. I have been looking forward to this day since I was a young pup. I know Tristan has too, but now, with his father gone, I know it’s bittersweet. It’s been a rough week after his dad passing. Tristan hasn’t said much, but I can tell it’s hit him hard. I am sure it has hit Addy hard too. I have always been super protective over her. I always tell Tristan it’s because she’s like a little sister, but honestly, I have always had a crush on her. I can’t say that or feel that way though. She is off limits as Tristan’s little sister. I haven’t dated around seriously, but I have had sex with some she wolves. It was purely sex though; I have never dated one exclusively. I want to wait for my mate to make it serious. My wolf Blaze has never been a fan of me being with other she wolves, he always told me I ne

Braxton’s POV I am sitting in my office trying to get work done, but my thoughts keep wondering off. My wolf Blake won’t even talk to me right now. I know I shouldn’t be fooling around with Baylee, she isn’t my mate, but I just needed comfort and she was there. Knock Knock “Come in” Tristan comes in and slumps into the sofa, he looks a little better than earlier today after the argument with Addy, but I can still see the pain across his face. I know the death of his father has been hard on him. It’s been hard on all of us. My parents maybe the leaders of the pack, but his parents, they were the glue. Everyone loved his dad and mom; they were like second parents to me. I know when we lost his mom 5 years ago it was rough, but his dad helped pull him and Addy through. Now, it’s just him and Addy. “I’m not going to ask how you are doing, because I know the answer by how shitty you look. You want to talk?” “Which part? The part where I am trying to figure out how to grieve

Tristan’s POV I am exhausted from training. Ever since dad died, I have taken over his job of teaching evening training. On top of everything else I am exhausted. As I walk up the back of the house, I can smell Braxton still here and…burnt cookies? What the hell? I walk in and see Addy and Brax on the floor. I see Addy’s tear-stained face and my anger goes through the roof. I swear to God if Brax hurt my little moon I will kill him. “What the fuck happened!?” I yelled as I marched towards them. Before Brax could even respond Addy jumps up and explains, “I may have destroyed 10 batches of cookies and had a complete and total meltdown and ruined Brax’s shirt with snot.” She looks down ashamed and is standing as though she is in trouble. I look from Addy’s tear-streaked face to Brax’s snot covered shirt and realization hits me. Shit. My best friend was here when I should have been. He held her and let her cry, when it should have been me. Damn it. “Oh little moon.”

Braxton’s POV I found an excuse to come over to Tristan’s and Addy’s house this morning. I kept telling myself not to, but I had to see her. I am now standing in the kitchen a little bit a way from Addy as Tristan makes his way upstairs. As soon as I hear him shut his bedroom door. I turn to Addy, taking a deep breath. I try to get out my words. I spent all morning trying to find the right words to say to her, so things aren’t awkward between us, but that is exactly what it is right now. Awkward. “Hey” I said softly. As I moved closer to her. “Hey” she whispers, I am not sure I would have even heard it if I didn’t have my werewolf hearing. I can see how tense her body is, and I know I am making her uncomfortable. I hate that. I look her body up and down. I can’t help but notice how sexy she is and think about how bad I want her. “Addy, I just wanted to say…umm…” She wouldn’t look at me, and I needed to see those beautiful blue eyes. I stepped closer to her and turne
