Luna On The Run!

Alpha Gorgio’s POINT OF VIEW

I’ve had enough of this!

Alpha Zane needs to be shown his place. Putting a choker around my mate’s throat is more than I can take. With this act he has officially declared war on me, nothing can save the man. I will burn his whole pathetic pack to the ground and nail his head to the highest pole.

When I’m done with Midnight Moon, every other pack will think ten times before messing with me. I’m Alpha Gorgio, nobody can treat my mate like that with impunity. And when I look at the faces of my Beta and Head Warrior, I see belligerence and hatred.

“We await your orders, Alpha. I am ready. Just give the signal”. Alvin’s earlier flirtatious attitude is gone, his face is now all business. He had disagreed with the agreement with the Council before, and now that he seems to be right that it was a bad deal, he is ready to correct it.

“The pack is ready for anything as long as Luna comes back, Alpha. They are ready to give their lives for her return. It’s a good thing they don’t know about this new information, otherwise, things would be different now”. Jace’s eyes speak volumes, he too is waiting to shift and fight the war alongside me.

“We need Ariel with us first. If Zane finds her before we do, this war could turn out differently. He can use her against us. We have to find Ariel first,” Alvin insists. He picks up the vial and holds it aloft.

I pull my phone out of my pocket and press Ariel’s number. Disappointed, I discovered that her number was not in use. My goodness, if her wolf is suppressed, this will become increasingly difficult. She can be injured more easily without healing quickly.

“Set up the cameras. At least we’ll know if she’s in Midnight Moon if Zane can find her before we do.” Alvin’s eyes get misty and a moment later five of the pack’s best trackers enter my office. My Head Warrior himself pours the potion behind their ears. Then they are told their task.

Alvin spreads out a map of Midnight Moon on my desk and instructs the men where the devices are to be affixed. Jace and I watch, this is an old plan we have practiced more than once. The man is a professional, he knows exactly what he is doing.

As soon as the trackers are gone, we prepare to leave for Midnight Moon.

Kriegers advance ahead of us to strategically position themselves around the pack’s perimeter. The three of us will be joined by ten more men. “Should we request help from our friendly packs, Gorgio?” inquires Jace. “And don’t forget the procedures in the Were-Laws. We are supposed to inform the Council of any intention to go to war”.

Shit! I had forgotten about that. As long as they don’t try to change my mind. While Alvin and Jace prepare for our departure, I call my father-in-law. This is a formal call, family ties are irrelevant here.

“Alpha King. I am calling to inform you that I will be leaving for Midnight Moon in a few minutes. My intention is to wipe out the pack completely for the insult they inflicted on my Luna. Alpha Zane should have known better before he decided to humiliate my mate.”

“Calm down, Gorgio. I just spoke to King Jasper. He met Ariel, she was with a she-wolf from his Kingdom who helped her escape. But the car they were in got into an accident, and they are being treated in the hospital in Human Town.” My heart misses a beat.

“My mate! Father, I felt she was hurt. I need my mate back. And Alpha Zane has put a choker on her to suppress her were-abilities. Holy Goddess, how will she heal without her wolf? My pup!” I fall back in my desk chair, fear having a stranglehold on me.

“Yes, Ariel told the King about that. Only a witch can take it away, there’s a spell on it,” he sighs, suppressing his own fatherly fear. “The Queen went to the hospital about an hour ago. It turns out that Ariel and the she-wolf have fled, and Kensley is on their trail”.

“I can’t take this anymore. I want my mate and as long as Midnight Moon is after her, she will keep running. Once this louse pack is wiped out, they will no longer be a thorn in my side,” I growl furiously. “Alpha Zane is so dead. He got the wrong one this time.”

“I’m also sending warriors to Midnight Moon. As a father, I cannot accept such a thing. Ariel is an Alpha Princess, much higher in rank than Zane. He should definitely have not done this, I cannot let this go unpunished.” There is a moment of silence at the other end of the line. “And the King has confirmed that she has a pup. No, Zane must know he has gone too far.”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

My father-in-law sounds calm, but like everyone else, I know he is most dangerous in that mood. But I want to get ahead of him, deal with this Alpha personally, once and for all. Zane has already had a free pass and pushed his luck way too far.

Now he must face the consequences.

The Alpha King ends the call and I hurry to join Alvin and Jace.

We go out where ten fully equipped warriors are waiting for us. They are fully equipped, their weapons and attributes attached to their uniforms in such a way that they can pull them off with a jerk if they need to shift. The helicopter we are leaving in is waiting in the garden of the packhouse.

Just as we are about to jump in, I notice Xanna standing defiantly with her hands on her hips, shaking her head disapprovingly. Without a word she joins us and we are ready to begin our journey to the gates of Midnight Moon.

And then I realized that I forgot about Xander in all the commotion. My wolf loves Ariel, so I expect him to support my decision to go to war.

‘Xander, are you okay with this? Do you understand that there is no other option? Zane has humiliated our Luna and we cannot tolerate that’.

‘One hundred thousand percent I agree with you. That’s why I didn’t intervene when you were preparing. I had already promised Claw this beating, and now it is time to pay my debt. Make sure we’re not dealing with small warriors. Head straight for the Alpha. I’m ready.’ …
