The sound of birds chirping woke me up. My eyes fluttered open and I saw trees above me. I was lying on soft moss.This is weird. How did I get here? I sat up, feeling confused.I scratched my head trying to remember what happened. There was an attack on the Blue Eclipse pack. Joe was killed and they had Sally and me trapped. I frowned. Am I dead?Feeling confused, I looked around to make sense of where I was. I was in a lush, green forest that I was sure I had never been in before. It didn’t look anything like the Blue Eclipse pack.It didn’t look like the Midnight pack either. Looking down at myself, I noticed that I was wearing jeans and a shirt. But it was the beginning of winter, how could it be so warm?I strolled through the forest until I found a small creek. I followed the creek downstream and reached a large pond. My heart skipped a beat when I saw a woman sitting by the edge of the pond, calmly throwing small stones and watching the ripples in the water surface. “H

Nick POV I muttered curses under my breath as I ran through the forest in my wolf form. It had taken some work, but I managed to sneak out of the territory and took off towards the border to the Blue Eclipse pack. This was a terrible idea. How could I let myself be talked into risking my life and betraying my pack by this teenage girl that came out of nowhere? But in a way, it made sense. She was Elijah’s mate. My son.I guess ‘you never know what you’ve had until you lost it’ has never been more true. The second Elijah’s body dropped to the ground, I had to struggle to keep my composure. It was exactly what I had tried to avoid for years and it still happened right in front of me. There was no excuse for what I did to Elijah. But the Goddess knows that I love my son. I should have told him the truth a long time ago. I should have trusted him instead of taking out all the pack’s high expectations on him. It wasn’t fair. Now, I feared that it was too late. There was no reason for

Sally POVThe sound of footsteps made me peek out through the bars of the cell door. I saw Nick coming down the stairs and I heaved a sigh of relief. He gestured at me to step away from the door and opened it. “How did it go?” I whispered. “I guess that either it went well and you just came back, or you chickened out and didn’t go at all.”Nick scoffed. “What do you take me for? Of course I went! Elijah has a plan and they’re setting it in motion as we speak.”I could barely contain my excitement. “Really?” I almost squealed. “Yeah, I gave them the intel they needed to get onto pack lands.” He whispered. “Get ready to leave, because they’re on their way!”“Thank you.” I whispered. He held up a syringe and smiled at me apologetically. “Don’t thank me yet.” He said. “Alpha still gave me orders to give you this.”I groaned.“Can’t we just skip it?” I asked. Nick shook his head. “He’ll feel if your wolf is awake, and we’ll have no explanation for that.” He replied. “Hopefully you

Elijah POVI couldn’t believe what I was hearing. There was no way that I would believe what my father had just said if it wasn’t for the fact that I was standing right next to him. I trusted the plans that he gave us to invade the Midnight pack, but I thought that he did it for Sally. It was his natural instinct to protect the Luna, so I just thought that was his reason for helping us. The rest of the things he said when he handed the plans over, I just considered bullsh*t.Alpha Richard looked bewildered. “Are you crazy?” He asked.I glanced at my father.If he was afraid, you definitely couldn’t tell from his posture. Instead, he looked really determined. “No.” He said. “Actually, it’s the first time in years that I’m thinking clearly.”Alpha Richard seemed unsure what to do for a few seconds, but then he sighed and his usual smirk made its way across his facial features. “Very well.” He said. “I won’t stand for traitors in my pack anyway, so I’ll just kill you first.”My fathe

Sally POVWe got to work right away. Alpha Hudson asked if we could help him get an overview of the situation at Midnight pack.The vast majority of the warriors submitted to Alpha Hudson immediately, which was a huge relief. The ones that refused, Alpha Hudson cast out as Rogues hoping they could find another pack to live in. After a few hours, a large van pulled up in front of the packhouse and Avery jumped out of the car along with Luna Roberta, Alex and a group of other civilian people from the Blue Eclipse pack, ready to help. I saw Alpha Hudson embrace Avery and kiss her passionately. When they pulled away, I saw Avery blushing and I said teasingly. “So, I guess you’re a Luna now.”Avery squealed and rushed to hug me.“We were so worried.” She whispered. The others walked up to us and Alex hugged me too. “I’m sorry.” He said. “I’m so, so sorry. If I hadn’t stayed in the field that day, they would never have had the opportunity to take you.”I shook my head at him. “Don’t s
