"How does Altamunar's eye color count?" Neon asked. "It doesn't make sense; everyone can have the same color of eyes.""Ever seen gray eyes before?" Griffin asked. "No? Of course, I know that's the answer."Phoebe held up the book. "The book says Altamunar's eyes would be gray like the others, but they might be different. It is left for us to figure out who she is."Luna let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. Griffin looked at her."Why do you look relieved?" Griffin asked."I'm not relieved," Luna retorted immediately. "I heard from my father, and he is gone; that is something to be relieved for."Ashford was still holding onto her, and she was grateful for the warmth he provided her."Their eyes would look similar to gray, and the only person who has different eyes among us is Luna," Griffin started.As soon as the words left Griffin's lips, Luna stiffened, and Ashford could feel her tense up in front of him.Phoebe rolled her eyes. "Silver is absolutely different from gra

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

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

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

"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
