[Present Day] Leah’s POV I know it's sad, but I still have that black t-shirt 10 years later.  I sleep in it almost every night. I don’t even know if he would remember giving it to me.  I’m sure that it’s super creepy, but I can’t help it. I saw it as a piece of himself that he gave willingly to help me, with no other intentions or motivations. It was the first time a male, that wasn’t my dad or uncles, was kind just to be kind. “Alpha, all of the male rogues that we noted earlier have engaged.  They are overrunning the territory as we speak and there is no sign of Ellinore’s group yet.  They should have reached the door by now, I don’t understand.” A gamma, I think Travis is his name, s

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

[Present] Damien’s POV There 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

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

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
