    Good story but spelling and grammar need a tidy up. Also needs someone to go back and check all the character names for consistency as they get confused.

Chapter 1 Meet Bethany and Bella

Bethany

Bethany, Beth wake up baby!

Momma, what's wrong?

"Rogues, we're under attack. I need you to take Bella to the safe room and don't come out until I

come and get you, ok? Promise me you won't come out until it's safe Beth!"

Ok momma, I won't I promise!

Good girl, now run and don't stop, protect Bella. I love you, Bethany.

I love you too momma.

I take a sleeping Bella from my mom's arms and run out of my bedroom, down the hallway, down the stairs, through the living room, and finally reach the kitchen. I pop open the door as the growls and pain-filled howls start to get louder and I'm just grateful that Bella is sleeping through all of this.

Finally, we reach the safe room. I lock the door once we're inside and lay Bella on the mattress on the floor. This room has everything we need, there are two mattresses on the floor with blankets and pillows, torches within reach just in case the power goes out or we need to keep the main light off, and a cupboard with drinks and food that doesn't need to be cooked.

There's a small toilet room adjacent to this room, it literally only has a toilet and sink in there but that's all we need. There are two windows high up on the wall, the glass is fogged so no one can see in or out but the light shines through so you can tell if it's day or night.

I've been stuck in this room during attacks before and I can tell you that being able to tell if it's day or night helps a lot especially when you don't have a clue what time it is. The room is soundproofed and the door is made of steel making it harder to break through, not that anyone has tried before thank goddess.

I lay down on the mattress and cuddle into Bella. I'm sure we'll be fine, we're not a big pack, there are only 250 members but we have some very strong warriors and have done well when under attacks before. I can't fight because I don't have my wolf yet, I'll get my wolf when I'm 18 but right now I'm only 14.

Bella is 6 months old, she's my niece, my brother Josh's daughter. He and his mate Harley are warriors so after she was born it was agreed that if there was ever an attack, I would take her to the safe room while they fight. My dad Tom is the top warrior here at moonshine and while my mother Helen isn't a warrior, she is one hell of a fighter. She used to be a warrior but quit, choosing to work in the nursery instead. Josh is the 2nd top male warrior and Harley is the 10th top female warrior.

My older sister Brooke was the 2nd top female warrior here which is a great achievement at 18 years old but she met her mate 3 weeks ago at the annual blue moon ball and moved to his pack 6 hours away to be with him. Calvin is the Alpha of the claw moon pack, he's 20 and seems like a really good Alpha and mate to my sister.

I've not met him yet or anyone from the pack as I can't attend the ball until I'm 18 but we are going there in 1 week for the Luna ceremony and I can't wait. I'm super proud of my sister becoming Luna, she's such a lovely person and I know she'll be a great Luna.

The women, children, and elderly usually go to the safe room at the packhouse but my dad insisted we have one in our basement, so he and Josh build one 5 years ago. It's great because we don't need to go outside when there's a sudden attack but it's not great when I'm here on my own.

Of course, I have Bella but she's just a baby. It can get lonely and scary down here on my own but I always remind myself that my family are out there fighting to keep us safe. The least I can do is suck it up in here for a few hours.

My mind has been working overtime so much that I've given myself a migraine and I know Bella will be up in a couple of hours. I decide to try and get some sleep, I'm never normally able to fall asleep in here I get creeped out.

Between that and worrying about my family and pack sleep is always impossible but this headache isn't shifting so I've got to try so I snuggle into Bella some more and finally, sleep takes over.

I'm slowly waking up and suddenly remembering where I am. I jump up with a start and see we are still in the safe room . When I went to sleep, I was hoping that we would wake up in our beds and that this would all be over but clearly not. Bella starts to stir so I go make her bottle and by the time I'm done she's wide awake and whiny.

I change her diaper and start feeding her. I'm good at looking after Bella I can do everything she needs or wants, which is a good thing considering I'm all she has right now. Plus Harley says I'm a natural which I love because I can't wait to have my own kids one day when I get my mate. I can find my mate once I turn 18, but I just hope I don't have to wait too long.

As soon as Bella's fed and burped I take her into the toilet room, wash her down with a washcloth, and get her dressed. I then get myself sorted while she lays on the floor and plays. she's such a happy baby and I love her so much.

When Harley and Josh asked me to protect Bella, they knew I didn't need an adult here with us, they know I'd die to protect her. I may only be 14 but my family are warriors and Josh works me hard in training so much that when we have practice fights, I have to fight the older kids because no one my age can keep up with me.

I don't know what time it is but I know it's been hours and I've started getting a sinking feeling in my stomach, I've never been in this room this long before. I don't want to think it but I know deep down in my heart I know this attack hasn't gone our way. I know my family and pack are dead because If anyone had survived, they would have come for us.

I let myself have a few minutes to panic about how it's just me and Bella now, how I'm 14 and have to look after a baby. How do I do this? How do I live without my family? I want to break down, I want to smash this room up but I can't, I have to be strong now for Bella .

There's still a small part of me that wants to believe they are ok, what if they are alive? What if they're laying outside now injured and need me? I have to know; I have to see for myself if there are any survivors. I grab the backpack in the corner which has supplies for me and Bella for a few days.

It's kept here just Incase the worst happens and I need to run with her and as much as I don't want to admit it, I think it has. I throw it over my shoulder, pick up Bella and put her in the baby carrier I've put on, and pray to the moon goddess that if the worst has happened, I can get us out of here.

Here we go!

I slowly open the door, peaking out I can't see or hear anyone. I slowly make my way up the stairs into the kitchen and the sight before me doesn't give me any hope, the place has been trashed. I make my way through the house and every room is the same.

I think maybe the Rogues were looking for anyone hidden. It would be hard for them to find the safe room at my house because the outside door is covered in the same wallpaper as the kitchen, so it doesn't look like a door.

I head to my bedroom and pray they didn't find my emergency box, Josh and I both have them. They contain a bank card to my parent's savings account, a few hundred dollars in cash, a new phone, and a photo album just in case there's no return. Thankfully it's still there, I put everything in my bag and make my way to the front door.

I get out of the front door and I feel like I've walked onto the set of a horror film. Everything is trashed, there are dead bodies littered everywhere, blood and even body parts sprawled out on the ground.

I feel sick! I'm so glad Bella is sleeping, baby or not she should never see something like this. I take deep breaths to try and calm myself and slowly make my way forwards, as much as I want to run away from this right now, I have to be sure, I have to know if my family is dead.

Making my way around the bodies I want to break down, all these people are just gone, the people I knew, the people I was talking with Just yesterday. Why did this happen? After a few more steps I find Josh and Harley next to each other... they're both dead... their throats have been torn out. My heart breaks for Bella, of course, it breaks for me too but they were her parents and she'll never remember them. I kiss them both on the head and keep walking.

I'm almost to the packhouse when I see my beautiful mom, her hearts torn out and as much as I try, I can't stop my tears from falling. I tell her I love her, kiss her on the head and go look for my dad the only one left I can hope is still alive.

I finally find him with the Beta and Alpha... he's dead his throat has been torn apart and his legs have been bitten off. It's all too much, I can't breathe, I crumble to the floor and quietly sob my heart out while cuddling a sleeping, Bella. It takes me some time to finally calm myself, I look around to see if anyone's coming but no one is, then I remember something...

The safe room in the packhouse. The women, children, and elderly will still be there. I take a few more minutes to say goodbye to my family then I take both my parent's wedding rings and place them on my neckless.

My mom made me, Josh, and Brooke promise a long time ago that if something happened to both of them and any of us was able to, we were to take their rings and keep them with us and I will keep that promise.

Harley and Josh weren't married yet but were engaged so I take Harley's engagement ring and also place it on my neckless, I will keep it safe until Bella is old enough to have it. I can't bear to see my family in pieces anymore so I say my final goodbyes and start walking away. That's not how I want to remember them and they wouldn't want that either.

I make my way to the packhouse on high alert. I still don't know if any Rogues are hanging around. I make it inside the house and it's all clear so far thank moon goddess. This place has been trashed too, everything in ruins and more bodies on the ground.

Arriving in the kitchen I head straight for the pantry, the door to the safe room is inside there. My legs can't move quick enough, I don't want to be alone anymore. The people in there may not be my family by blood but they are still family. I open the door and make my way down the stairs and I can't believe what my eyes are seeing...

Chapter 2 Mrs. Thompson

Bethany

The women, children, and elderly are still in here... but they're dead. HOW? How did anyone get in here? How could anyone kill these defenseless people? those poor babies! What have they been through? What did they see before they were murdered?

I can't hold back my tears; I start looking around praying there's someone still alive but the longer I'm here the less hope I have. I call out quietly begging someone to answer me and someone does, I can't believe it. I move quickly to where the sound is coming from to find Mrs Thompson my best friend Carly's mom.

Mrs Thompson, are you ok?

Beth dear hi, no sweetheart I'm bleeding pretty bad!

Oh Mrs Thompson we need to get you help now; do you know where Carly is?

No, it's too late for me Beth, as soon as I stand, I'll bleed out, I don't have much longer left. Beth sweetheart Carly... she's... gone... She's dead!

I knew in my heart that she was gone but hearing it out loud still feels like a knife tearing my heart apart, we've been best friends since we were 3 years old.

Beth is there anyone else out there?

No... I've not found anyone alive yet. I don't understand how the Rogues got in here, it's never happened before. My voice is barely above a whisper as I try not to break down again.

Beth... I need you to listen to me, I don't have long and you need to hear this. I nod my head Beth this was an inside job. One of our own was working with the Rogues. He showed a group of them this place, he let them in. I'm floored, I sit back on my bum in complete shock.

I don't understand, who would do that? Why? Mrs Thompson suddenly breaks down sobbing her heart out and I move in to cuddle her while she continues.

Beth it was... Marcus who brought the Rogues in here he was a part of it, he doesn't want to have an Alpha anymore he wants to be one so he made a deal with a group of Rogues, they help him wipe out the pack, he'll be the new Alpha and he'll take them in.

Marcus... as in your SON Marcus?

Sadly yes, Beth he killed Carly himself. I don't know who he is but he's not the son I raised!

I'm so stunned I can't move, can barely form any words. He killed his own sister, he destroyed our pack, FUCK!

Bethany... I need you to listen to me, he said for his plan to work everyone must die. He must be the only survivor to claim the lands. Beth, take Bella and run now sweetheart, and don't look back!

I won't leave you alone Joan, I can't!

Sweetheart there's nothing that can be done for me. You know I've always loved you like my own, I couldn't save Carly please let me save you and that sweet baby girl! She's begging me and my heart is torn.

But... I can't, how do I live without everyone?

Beth you are so much stronger than you know. You need to get off the pack lands before they come back, get into town amongst the humans. Have you got a phone on you?

Yes, I do bu-

Beth get you and Bella into town and call Brooke, she'll help you both, please promise me you'll get away from here before they come back?

Brooke, how hadn't I thought of that? I've been so consumed by anger and grief that I didn't think about my sister, she's still alive and she'll help us.

Ok, Joan I promise I will but I can't leave you to die alone!

You can and you will sweetie. Don't worry about me I'm ok with dying, my family is waiting for me, please go now Beth let this be my dying wish!

This woman has just blackmailed me with a dying wish how the hell am I supposed to say no to that? I want to stay with her but I also know she's right, the Rogues have taken down an entire pack so they'll have no trouble dealing with a teenage girl with a baby.

Ok Beth it's time for you to leave now, promise me you'll phone Brooke, promise me you'll live life to the very most and you'll find happiness!

I don't know if I'll be able to do all she wants but I'm not going to tell her that, she doesn't need to hear different when she's minutes from dying so instead I promise her that I'll do it all, I kiss her on the forehead and my heart breaks as I run from her and out of the packhouse.

I make my way off of the pack lands finally accepting that there are no other survivors and head for town. I stick to the roads as I need to avoid the woods, they could be anywhere in there. I can't run at my normal speed because of Bella but I jog as fast as I can, making sure to stay in the shadows as much as possible.

20 minutes later and I'm Finally in town not that I feel any safer. Bella woke up about 5 minutes ago and is whiny so I walk to the local baby shop they have a baby room, it's public and safe. Once she's all fed, burped, and changed I make my way outside to a quiet corner, and with a lump in my throat, I call Brooke.

*Ring ring* ring ring* ring ring* ring...

No answer ugh! she always answers her phone. I try her again and again but still no answer, Shit! I shoot her a text to phone me ASAP and head for the local Diner I know; I'll hide out there until she calls. I head into Danny's Diner and take a seat in a booth at the back out of the way and order a BLT and coffee. I'm really not hungry but I have to keep my strength up for Bella who's fallen back to sleep again snuggled into my chest.

4 hours later and still no call from Brooke and I've lost count of the number of times I've called her. Why is she not answering? It's 8 pm and I know I need to find somewhere to spend the night, somewhere for Bella to safely sleep. I ask the waitress for a local hotel and she sends me in the right direction.

It's only a 5-minute walk and thankfully they have a room for me. I request a travel cot to be sent to the room and make my way up to the 7th floor in the elevator. I arrive at the door at the same time as a guy arrives with the travel cot, he sets it up for me and I thank him before he leaves.

It's a small room, there's a double bed on one wall with the cot on one side and a bedside table on the other side. A unit on the wall at the bottom of the bed with a tv, kettle, and water bottles on it, a built-in wardrobe is on the left-hand side and the bathroom is on the right. Sink toilet and shower nothing special but all we need.

I place Bella in the travel cot, going in my backpack I take out her blanket and bunny teddy and place them in with her. I've not showered since before bed last night so that's next on my list and thankfully this hotel provides travel-size bathroom accessories or I'd be screwed.

I lock the door and go turn on the shower leaving the bathroom door open so I can hear Bella. I strip off and step under the hot running water, it may be doing a great job of soothing my muscles but my mind is anywhere but here. I can't stop reliving everything that's happened in the last 24 hours.

The tears I've been holding back since leaving the pack lands come to the surface only this time, I don't stop them in fact I welcome them. I slide down the shower wall, pull my knees up to my chest and I break down. I cry for losing my family and my pack. I cry for Bella losing her parents. I cry for Mrs Thompson and having to leave her to die alone and I cry out the anger and frustration that just makes me want to tear apart everything in my view.

It feels like I'll never stop crying but then my mind wonders to Bella and the fact that right now I'm all she has. I have to be strong for her. I made a promise to Josh and Harley that I'd look after her, and protect her and that's exactly what I'll do.

I Wash up, brush my teeth and get into my pj's before crawling into bed. I try calling Brooke again but no answer ugh! The day slowly catches up with me and I fall into a nightmare-filled sleep...

*Ring ring* *ring ring* ring ring*

I'm dragged out of another nightmare by my phone ringing, I dive out of bed, it's Brooke Oh, thank moon goddess.

Brooke, where have you been? I've called you about 30 times, why didn't you answer? I'm speaking so fast I'm struggling to breathe in between.

Whoa whoa, calm down sweetheart, I'm sorry I didn't answer we had a BBQ last night and I left my phone in my bedroom, what's wrong? Are you ok?

No Brooke I'm not, nothing's going to be ok again, I can't do this! I'm back to holding the tears in. I need you to take a deep breath, ok sweetheart? And tell me what's wrong?

Tuesday night Rogues attacked the pack lands... the... they killed everyone, Brooke... Mom, Dad, Josh, Harley, Carly... everyone's gone! My sobs are back and I feel so broken.

Oh, goddess no! I can hear the sheer terror in Brooke's voice as she realizes what's happened. How did you... what about Isabella?

Bella's fine I've got her but it's just us two now.

The phone goes quiet before I hear shuffling from the other end of the phone.

Bethany, this is Alpha Calvin, are you safe? Where are you?

I'm safe, I have my niece Bella with me. We're at a hotel in the human town called the tree line in room 319.

Ok Beth, don't worry you won't be on your own much longer I am sending my Gamma and a few warriors to come and get you both straight away, they will bring you here to Brooke, to us, ok?

Thank you so much, Alpha... but how will I know they are your warriors?

Smart girl. Gamma Jack will be there with my warriors John, Callum, Jake, Scott, and David. I will give them the password of Brooke how's that work for you?

That sounds ok. I quickly write down the names he gave me.

Good now it will take them roughly 6 hours to get there, they will be driving straight through to get you both so they should be with you around twelve, ok? In the meantime, I'd prefer it if you didn't leave the room so anything you need order through room service and Gamma Jack will settle the bill when he arrives, please don't worry about the cost!

Thank you, Alpha Calvin thank you so much, I don't want to be alone anymore! My voice breaks as the tears keep falling.

There's no need to thank me, Beth we are family and you won't be alone for much longer, ok? I know you've lost your home and nothing can replace that but there's a place here with me and Brooke waiting for you both ok?

Ok thank you Alpha that means more than you'll ever know, how's Brooke doing? Bella starts waking up as I'm waiting for his reply.

She's not doing great but I imagine you are the same?

I am, Bella's waking up so I need to make her bottle, please look after Brooke Alpha Calvin.

He assures me he will and that he'll call back soon to check on me. I pop my phone on charge and make a start on Bella’s morning routine... six more hours on our own... we can do this.

*Knock knock knock knock*

My heart picks up pace at the sound of someone knocking on the door.

Bethany, it's Gamma Jack, we're here to take you and little Isabella home.

Gamma Jack... who else is with you? I have to be sure.

Bethany, I have 5 warriors with me John, Callum, Jake, Scott, and David. As he says the names, they all say hi to me one by one.

Ok, and what's the password? Better to be safe than sorry.

It's Brooke.

I decide I'm happy to believe it's them and I slowly open the door to a huge guy standing there he's at least 6ft3 short jet black hair, bright blue eyes, and very muscular, the power coming off him tells me he's of a high rank. The other 5 guys are also incredibly tall and muscular and I know Bella and I will be safe with them.

He gives me a kind smile as I open the door more so they can come inside. Bella is babbling away in her travel cot while sucking on one of her teddy bunny ears and I swear I see every single one of the guys soften looking at her.

We make quick work of gathering mine and Bella's stuff and leave the room. Gamma Jack offers to carry Bella but I want her with me. I'm not saying he's a bad guy but I don't know him well enough yet and until I get to Brooke, she's all I have.

I go to pay the bill for our room and room service but Gamma Jack stops me and insists he pays and I'm too lost in myself to argue it. We make our way to the SUV they brought, strap Bella in the car seat and all pile in ready to leave this place behind, to leave my family behind.

Chapter 3 Meet Future Luna Brooke

Future Luna Brooke

The music is pumping, the dancefloor quickly filling, the drinks are flowing and the food is endless, this BBQ is going great. My mate certainly knows how to throw a party. The Alpha of this pack is one incredible leader, he's everything an Alpha should be and would lay his life down for any one of his members. He's been Alpha for the last 2 years after he took over the position at 18 when his dad was ready to retire.

A lot of Alphas won't retire until the future Alpha has found his Luna but Alpha Calvin wasn't getting any luck and his dad was ready to retire so he took on the role without his Luna by his side.

He finally met his Luna 3 weeks ago; it turns out the reason he hadn't found his Mate before was that she lived in a different pack that he had never visited. I don't know what I did in life to deserve him as my mate, never imagined I'd be a Luna but I honestly couldn't be happier.

Is my Luna enjoying the BBQ? His strong arms wrap around my waist as he places a kiss on my mark and a shiver runs through my whole body.

She is, is my Alpha enjoying the BBQ? I cheekily grin his way. He spins me around gracing me with his sexy smirk.

He is although he's looking forward to taking his Luna to bed more. He winks at me; he's got such a cheeky personality and a dirty dirty mind and he brings out the sexual side to me that I never knew I had. He pulls me in tight against his body and gives me a slow sensual kiss.

Put him down Luna, we wouldn't want you corrupting his innocent mind! Liam, Calvin's best friend, and Beta bellows in his fake British accent as he makes his way over to us.

Don't worry Liam, our dear innocent Alpha could never be corrupted, he'd much rather play scrabble than ever be swayed by the beauty in front of him. Comes the fake Scottish accent of Jack, Calvin's other best friend, and Gamma as he makes his way over with his mate Ashley and Beta Liam.

Fuck off! Shouts Calvin and we all bellow out with laughter. I may only have been here 3 weeks but it honestly feels like I've been here forever in a good way, of course. Everyone has treated me like family, and Liam, Jack, and Ashley have become more like brothers to me. I take a moment to think about my family back at the moonshine pack I miss them so much.

I couldn't wait to move here with Calvin but It was hard leaving them behind. Mom and dad are incredible people. Josh my brother, and his mate Harley are high-ranking warriors and became parents 6 months ago to my niece Isabella and she is the cutest baby ever.

Then there's my little sister Bethany she's honestly one of my best friends. We talk all the time but I still miss her like crazy but they are coming here next week for my Luna ceremony and will be staying for 6 days and I can't wait to see them all.

It's gone 1 am before we're climbing into bed. It has been a brilliant night but we are both shattered, not that tiredness ever stops us, and certainly not Calvin. We make love twice before curling up and passing out.

I slowly start opening my eyes adjusting to the beaming light shining through the window. We always forget to close the curtains and we always regret it. I feel sparks on my head and know my mate is running his fingers through my hair, I'll never get bored of the feeling.

I've sprawled myself across his chest, my legs on either side of his body, I push myself up using his chest to support myself and grab my phone off the bedside table. I forgot to take it to the BBQ last night and well I was a little distracted when I came to bed so didn't check it but as soon as I look at the screen, I'm on high alert.

Brooke, what's wrong baby? He's noticed me tense up and instantly looks concerned.

I don't know but I've got 22 missed calls off Beth since yesterday afternoon and a text for me to call her asap, what if something has happened?

I'm sure everything's fine baby it's probably just some teenage thing or maybe she's argued with your parents? Why don't you give her a call and check in before she goes to school? You'll only worry all day otherwise. He knows me too well already. I check the time, it's 6 am, she'll be up now getting ready so I take Calvin's advice and call Beth.

*Ring ring* ring ring* ring ring*

Brooke, where have you been? I've called you about 30 times, why didn't you answer?

She speaks so fast... what the hell is going on? I wait for her to explain, expecting some sort of teenage problem, a fight with Carly, boy trouble, or maybe even trouble with my parents but what she tells me isn't anything close to that. What she tells me destroys my world .

Tuesday night Rogues attacked the pack lands... the... they killed everyone, Brooke... Mom, Dad, Josh, Harley, Carly everyone's gone! She starts to sob into the phone as my world falls apart. I manage to ask her about Bella but everything else is just a cluster of words.

I start telling Calvin what's happened even though I know he's already heard everything for some reason I need to tell him. I'm spilling my words out as tears start to fall, I can't hold them back anymore. Calvin pulls me off of his lap and onto the bed he goes to the closet and comes back with underwear and one of his tee-shirts and dresses me in them, his tee-shirt is big enough to come down to just above my knees.

He goes back into the closet and returns dressed in joggers and a tee shirt; he's so fast it's only taken him a minute to dress us both. I see him mind link someone then he comes and takes the phone off me. Shit, Beth is still on the phone while I'm just sitting here.

Bethany, this is Alpha Calvin, are you safe? Where are you? As Cals talking on the phone with Beth there's a knock on the door. Calvin answers, and in walks Liam, Jack, and five of our warriors. Calvin motions them in and goes back to Beth he must have linked them when he got us both dressed. He doesn't say anything to them but goes straight back to talking to Bethany.

He's straight into Alpha mode but also being extremely gentle towards Bethany and I couldn't be any more grateful right now. I'm a mess. I can barely hear what he is saying. Everything's a blur.

Liam calls out to me but I just stare at him. I can't form any words and I can't tell him that my family is dead, if I do it will make it all the more real and for some reason, I need to hold on to some kind of hope that this is all a dream.

I pull my attention back to Cal while I concentrate on taking deep breaths and I can hear Beth on the other end of the phone.

Thank you, Alpha Calvin thank you so much, I don't want to be alone anymore!

I hear her voice break and her sobs bring on mine. Calvin makes his way to me, pulls me onto his lap, and starts to run his fingers through my hair to try and calm me while I bury my head in his chest.

There's no need to thank me Beth we are family and you won't be alone for much longer ok. I know you've lost your home and nothing can replace that but there's a new place here with me and Brooke waiting for you both ok?

I love this man so much. My sister and niece are alone and he doesn't even question what will happen to them now or who will look after them he just instantly commits himself to now taking on the role with me and at this moment, I don't think I've loved him more.

Alpha what's happened? I'm dragged out of my thoughts by Liam's voice.

I don't know all the details yet but Tuesday night Brooke's old pack, her family's pack was attacked by Rogues. So far only two survivors are known. Brooke's 14-year-old sister Bethany and her niece Isabella who's 6 months.

What do you need from us? Liam and Jack ask at the same time. I send a grateful smile their way. I've only been here 3 weeks and they haven't even met Beth or Bella yet they don't hesitate in helping them, in helping me.

Jack, I want you to go and collect Beth and Bella from the hotel they are staying in I'll text you the address now. John, Callum, Jake, Scott, and David, I need you to go with Jack. It's a 6-hour trip and I need you to drive straight through. I need you to get to them asap, these girls are our family and they've been on their own way too long. Oh and when you knock on her door she'll ask you for the password, it's Brooke.

Of course, Alpha, we will get to her as quickly as we can. We'll keep them safe Brooke I promise. Jack looks at me as he finishes speaking.

Calvin it's her birthday tomorrow, what kind of birthday can she have with everything she's been through.

It's her birthday tomorrow... wow poor girl. Liam looks at me sadly.

I know sweetheart and granted this isn't going to be a great birthday for her but we will still try our best to make the day special for her ok baby? I throw him a grateful smile because I know if I talk, I will break down again.

If you need any help, I know Ashley will be more than happy to help you, Brooke you know he loves any reason to get out his organizing folder! Jack rolls his eyes while he speaks and for the first time this morning, I hold a genuine smile for a few seconds.

Thank you, Jack, yeah that guy loves that bloody folder, I think I will do just that. Beth deserves a great day but I know I don't have it in me to organize anything.

No problem, Luna, I will let him know to keep his day free that way you can see him once you are ready. Right men let's all go get ready to go we have two very important girls to bring home. I want you all in the kitchen in 30 minutes no later! All the men nod and leave the room including Jack.

I'm going to go and get some food and drinks for them to take with them, it's a long drive and they won't be stopping, it's the least I can do, I tell Calvin as I get off the bed.

That's a great idea let's go. He holds out his hand to me and I think he knows I need to keep busy.

I'm right behind you, Liam calls out, that guy will do anything for anyone without a second thought.

We head down to the kitchen, make a huge pile of ham salad and cheese salad sandwiches, pop them in a cooler and add in bags of chips, cookies, and granola bars. We then grab another cooler box and fill it with bottles of water and energy drinks.

Just as we finish up all the guys start making their way into the kitchen, it's only been 15 minutes and I'm grateful for their eagerness to leave. Jack comes down last with Ashley at his side.

Luna Brooke, I'm so sorry for what's happened, if there's anything I can do please don't hesitate to ask. Jack mentioned you may be needing my help with Beth's birthday and I'm more than happy to help. I will be in the packhouse all day today so please call me whenever you're ready.

Thank you, Ashley, I really appreciate it. He gives me a kind smile, nods, then turns to Jack, kissing him goodbye, and wishing all the guys a safe journey. Calvin takes out the coolers and puts them in the SUV while the guys thank us for the supplies.

Liam disappears into another room and returns with a baby car seat and hands it to John. I send him a grateful smile as I hadn't even thought about that. The guy's pile in and gives us a wave as they leave the packhouse.

Calvin texts Beth letting her know that the guys have left then turns to me picking me up bridal style and carrying me towards the bedroom. I'm too sad to question anything today and leave him to it.

Liam you are in charge today I'm taking the day off to look after our Luna.

Of course, Alpha don't worry about anything I've got it covered, if either of you needs anything please let me know.

We both thank Liam as Calvin continues to the bedroom. He puts me on the bed and lays down next to me tapping his chest. I lay down on him sprawled across his chest with my legs on either side of his body. He pulls the blanket over us and starts stroking my hair. Laying in his arms feels like the safest place in the world and it doesn't take long for me to fall into a fitful sleep.

Chapter 4 Meet Beta Liam

Beta Liam

I'm sitting in the Alpha's office running through everything that needs doing today. Our poor Luna is understandably devastated after the news she received this morning and as always, she can rely on Alpha being at her side. We can all rely on him, he is an incredible Alpha and mate. It may only have been 3 weeks since he met our Luna but he honestly treats her like a queen.

I've not found my mate yet but honestly, I can't wait. It's been 1 year since I turned 18 and could find her but so far, no luck but I'm not giving up hope not yet after all Cal is 20 and only recently met his mate.

I can't believe out of the whole pack there are only 2 known survivors from moonshine and best of all it's Brooke's 14-year-old sister and 6-month-old niece. I know Brooke said she was one hell of a fighter but the fact that she got herself and a baby out of there is insane. I've got to admit Brooke's sister is a strong brave girl she not only got her and the baby away from the pack lands but she's also been on her own for over 24 hours keeping them both safe.

That reminds me I need to make sure the bedrooms are ready for their arrival. Calvin has already asked me to have two of the bedrooms on his floor arranged for them so I quickly link Ashley and he's more than happy to help with getting them ready. Next, I click on the list on the laptop and the first 3 jobs involve the Luna ceremony next week. Shit. I leave them for Cal to sort as I'm not sure what's going to happen with that now and move on to the next job on the list.

Morning training, Jack, Calvin, and myself train these groups among others, and luckily for me, I am able to train all 3 classes as it looks like that's what I'll be doing today. I leave a phone message for the Elders informing them of the attack and asking them to call me once they know anything. I want all the details.

I head for the kitchen to grab breakfast I'm starving, don't get me wrong I'm always hungry I am literally a bottomless pit but this morning I'm going to need the energy to get through all 3 classes.

I pile 3 plates high with pancakes, bacon, eggs, hash browns, and toast, grab 3 bowls of fruit and 3 coffees I put 2 of each on a tray, cover it over and place it in the oven so no one eats any of it before heading over to my usual table where Ashley is just about to start eating. I'll eat my food then take the tray up to Alpha and Luna to make sure they eat something.

Hey Ash, how's it going?

Hey sweet cheeks, good thankyou, you ok?

"Yeah, I'm ok busy but can't complain. I know it's early but have you got anywhere with the bedrooms
