Chapter 19

Me?

The moon lady?

How was that even possible, I wasn’t even strong enough to face the bullying from before, I wasn’t even strong enough to fight back. I couldn’t be the moon lady. Not only was it not in my nature but I wouldn’t even know what to do if I was the moon lady, I was just a ordinary female shifter who got caught up in drama and found her mate at the wrong time.

“M.. Me? How can that be?” I asked as I blinked my eyes. Then I heard someone cough hard and said “Because you were born by two lovers who were torn apart,” my father said as he tried his best to push himself off the ground, Gabie’s eyes widen and called out “Antonio? Is that you?” “Yes, my Gabriella,” he said as he smiled while looking at the ground, as I looked at my father and… mother I saw how both of them smiled as if their day just gotten brighter. I saw that they were happy how after a long time they were finally together except a wall was keeping them apart.

“Antonio… I am–” before she could even finish my father cut her off by saying “No need to be sorry. I is to be sorry Gabriella” “Sorry to ruin the moment guys but I need to know what am I suppose to do or how you both put it-,- destined to do.” I said as both of their eyes were one me. “The moon lady will–” but we all shut our mouths once the door opened revealing the bright light of the sun. One of Donald’s pack members came towards my dungeon they then opened it and grabbed me pushing me out of the dungeon with my eyes trailing on my parents who looked worried and concerned. I then looked at another cell and saw Apollo lying on the ground all bruised and bloody making me cringed.

“WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH HER!? LEAVE HER ALONE!” I heard my father shout as I left the prison area,

I then saw clearly Donald sitting in the living room with no one else. The pack members then threw me on the floor harshly and closed the door leaving only me and Donald alone in the room. My heart was pounding furiously as if it wanted to break out of my body. I was scared yet angry at the same time. I wanted to run from where I laid but at the same time tear his head off. He was looking at the cackling fire and he had one hand under his chin as he leaned on it. I couldn’t deny that he looked handsome but whenever I think of the things he has done to me it only makes me sick.

His eyes then flickered to me making me flinch as I saw his cold and dirty stare. He smirked as he saw how scared and frightened I was of him. “Finally Vivian you are afraid of me,” he said as he stood up, his Alpha voice clearly not working on me. I then stood up trying to look brave and that his evil smile and eyes did not scare but deep down inside they do. Donald was stronger than me and I knew whatever he is about to do isn’t good.

“What? Don’t have any angry words to throw at me or sweet words to flatter me?” he asked as he raised his eyebrow. “Why should I waste my precious words on someone so pathetic,” I hissed. His smirk disappeared and he then was in front of me in blink of an eye grabbing my face harshly. “It is disrespectful to treat your Alpha like that,” he growled and he did something that I was afraid he would do, he crushed his lips upon mine. Years ago I would die for this moment but the only thing I want now was to push him away from me and slap him because his kiss makes me feel sick and I couldn’t hide it any longer I yearned for only one person,

Franklin.

I tried prying away from him but I was too weak and he was a lot stronger. His lips were wet and he tried forcing his tongue into my mouth but I did what I thought was best. I bite his tongue making him shout in pain and push me away from him and not gently. “You little!” he hissed as he stomped towards me but I tried crawling away from him but he quickly caught up with me grabbing the back of my hair and pulling me up to my feet. “Vivian! You are still part of this pack you shall bow down and obey your Alpha!” he growled as he held my face inches away from his disgusting face. “You are not my Alpha,” I said that’s when he threw me across the room. I then slowly got up and as he lunged towards me I quickly rolled away making him growl.

He then shifted in his brown wolf trying to intimidate me I then shifted to my white wolf he then barked at me violently making my wolf’s ears back down. but then something inside me just snapped, I was tired of being told what to do, or being told how I should live my life. How each part of me grew sad as the ones around me treated me like I was dirt. I was tired how I would space out and think of my pity and sad life that passed by without me doing anything about it. I was mad and when I say mad I mean it.

My wolf then growled under her breath and growled like never before. It sounded dangerous and powerful. It vibrated through out my whole chest as if I was like in some sort of trance. My wolf then was towering over Donald’s brown one making him back away slowly. Showing me he wasn’t scared. I then bared my teeth showing him he just passed the line and once a bark left my mouth. It surprised and shocked me at the same time. It wasn’t my usual, it was different like I changed but all of a sudden someone shot a needle on me and I fell into the darkness again.

Franklin’s POV

My heart was breaking as I made my way back to my house, as I drove the truck tears ran down my face as if I had a never ending stock of tears. I woke up this morning to see the side of my bed empty, it broke me. I loved Vivian! She was my world and It’s not because of the bond that we had as mates but simply because Vivian was kind, she was smart and funny. She could be clumsy and she speaks her mind but most of her life was consumed and covered with sadness making her doubt anything good that comes to her.

I couldn’t get her smile and her eyes out of my head, they haunted me. I wish I could go back to the day I just met her that I could just ignore her and leave her but I couldn’t after getting to know her better, she was everything I ever wanted. She seeks happiness and adventure, she even seeks love. True love. Her scent was all over me and every time I would take a deep breath I could feel like she was right beside me staring outside the window like she always does.

I love Vivian Hills, always have and always will now and forever. Yes, once upon a time I had deep feelings for Nikki but once Vivian came into my life Nikki was only a distant memory like a vivid dream. Nikki knew I found my mate but she couldn’t accept it especially when she found out it was her half-sister. I thought that Gabie could keep us safe with her witch craft but I was terribly wrong. We put her life in danger and we had to save her but the only way to do that was to declare war on Donald’s pack.

It would be easy taking down their pack but my concern was Vivian maybe they might do something to her and when something happens to her it happens to me. It can make me weak and I would be easily killed in battle but I wasn’t worried in getting killed, I was worried about Vivian. My mate.

Suddenly something pulled me out of my thoughts as I saw a wolf run across the road. I then slammed on the brakes making the tires shriek but I was too late I heard the sound thud I then ran outside the car and saw Amelia’s wolf, she was laying on the ground. She wasn’t badly injured but I could tell something bad happened to her before my car hit her. “Amelia!” I called out as I shook her wolf’s body. She whimpered a bit as if saying that she was tired. I then ran back inside the truck and got some of Vivian’s clothes and threw it on Amelia and told her “Shift here and change,” in my Alpha voice. I knew she was tired and hurt but I needed to know what happened to her.

Once she was done she then frantically ran to me and she was breathing heavily and her eyes were widen. “Amelia, what happened?” as I grabbed her by the shoulders, steadying her. “Th…the.. they got her,” she breathed out. “Who did they got and who is they?” I asked she was breathing too heavily to answer. I then demanded “Amelia! Who are they!?”

She looked at me and I could tell she was crying “She came back, we went inside the house and they took Antonio, Apollo…. and Vivian,” she said as she started crying again. My eyes widen and I could feel every muscle in me tense. I then tried reaching out to Vivian and I felt her usual, Sadness and grief. nothing else. “Donald,” I growled and Amelia started crying again. “We have to rescue her, Vivian was weak when she came. we have to do something,”

“This means war,” I growled as we started making our way towards the pack house where everyone was now gathered but we did not traveled by car we traveled with our wolfs and as soon as we got there everyone was there waiting for us. I then asked them through our mind links does everyone know the situation? I then heard yes’ and nos’ ok here is what we are gonna do, Vivian Hills was kidnapped– but before I could even finish a dark brown wolf stepped forward and asked What is so special about her? I glared at her and growled Nikki… Know your place!! she then growled back Tell me what is so special about her when she rejected you!?!

Everyone was quiet, everyone knew my relationship with Nikki and once they heard rejected I heard some gasps and those were the few women who are staying here at the pack house with the children. ‘She is my mate and yes she rejected me but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna give up on her. I love her and If I can’t be with her I will always make sure that she’ll be safe and I’ll protect her even if she is with another or not. She is my soul mate a person made for me and if you have a problem with that I suggest you leave the pack for good.’ I then heard Nikki’s growl. ‘My mate was also kidnapped, we need to help their pack because the Alpha is evil and he is not the rightful Alpha we need to stop them and give them back their true Alpha.’ Amelia said as she stood in her wolf form beside me.

‘Stay out of our conversation dog! You are not even worthy of talking during a pack meeting.’ Nikki hissed ‘Oh stop your useless words…. whore.’ and as Amelia said that Nikki then lunged at her trying to snap her neck but some of the members joined and grabbed Nikki by the neck throwing her away from the pack. she got back up on her fours and faced me ‘So what now Frank? You’re gonna break up with me just because of that filthy dirty Vivian!?’ I then faced her looming over her small wolf form.

‘You Nikki Hills! By breaking our rules and disrespecting our pack I here by banish you from the Elite Pack you shall no longer be mind linked with us nor shall you live with us. Off you go!’ I snarled in a voice that can make any wolf stumble away like a scared dog and with those words I kicked her out of all our Mind links and bonds. She howled in pain as she felt the loneliness. she was now a rogue.

She then ran off.

As she ran off I then felt a pain scorched through my whole body, I doubled in pain. All eyes were on me and I heard people of my pack asked Alpha are you alright? Are you okay Alpha? Alpha what’s wrong? I then felt an uneasy feeling. A feeling of pain a grief. Something must be wrong with Vivian. Fear ran through my veins as I imagine what could happen to Vivian. What if Donald raped her? or hurt her physically? I then felt pain in the back of my head and through my whole body. Some of the pack members were scared now. They called a pack doctor. The pack doctor looked at me with a flashlight and flashed it in my wolf’s eyes he then said to the pack “It’s the bond of his mate, something must be happening to his mate,” making some people gasped and growl.

but then I suddenly felt power, a power like I could tear anything but the first thing I wanted to tear was Donald. I then shut my eyes and tried talking through mine and Vivian’s mind link.

Vivian, hold on… I’m on my way.

Vivian’s POV

My body was more weak than ever. I laid on the cold hard ground of my cell. Across I could see Gabie who was about to faint since after they took me they came back and punished her more. My father in the other cell laid down motionless and he was laying in his blood puddle. My eyes watered as I saw both parents bloodied and half alive. It was all my fault.

A tear roll down my face showing how hurt and sad I was. Who knows what happened to Apollo on the other side of the wall in my cell. My mind then wandered to Frank. Did Amelia ever got to him? Will he save me or leave me? Even though I know he’ll leave me since I left him back at the motel still something deep inside me told me that he was coming. Like a message of some sort.

My stomach felt too cold from the hard ground beneath me. What if I don’t make it? That’s when I heard the door of the dungeon and a bright light creep into the dark room of the dungeon. Were they here to torture us again? or to dispose of our bodies? I was scared and I didn’t want to give up but my body was too weak. From all the beating from Donald and his pack and also the rejection that I gave Frank.

“Vivian?”

A voice rang through the room but once as I heard the voice my eyes widen but I didn’t move from the ground, my ears couldn’t believe it but I didn’t know if the person was here to torture me or what but all my mind was saying was what is she doing here? I then looked right outside my cell and saw her standing there with her blonde hair she had a concerned look but it didn’t get to me.

“Audrey,”
