Chapter 69
LUNA POV
Seven months after the last attack on our village, the rogues never came back. My father assured us that they will dispose of the dead bodies and clear all traces so other rogues would not find us.
My dad sent some informants to check what was happening in other packs. Lucas continued attacking packs, killing werewolves to include the innocents. The blacktooth Guardians pack, Hector's pack was the one leading all other packs to fight the Madfur pack. Lucas managed to make his armies stronger by recruiting all other rogues to join forces with him.
That bastard will never stop until he will conquer all the lands. He is an ambitious person.
I am packing things now. We agreed to join forces with the Blacktooth Guardians pack to fight in a war against the Madfur pack. I need to do this to help my pack and to avenge the people they killed including my mother, brother, and Ellie.
I know my ability is enough to fight in this war. I have my wolf and my blood.
I admit I'm not yet ready to see Hector again. I'm not sure what will be his reaction if he will see me. I also don't know what to do or say.
The news reached me, that two months ago, Jasmine had a miscarriage. So she and Hector are in a relationship. It really breaks my heart. I can't believe it. He loved another woman while I am not around. Maybe he had already grown tired of searching and waiting for me. Jasmine had a miscarriage, so both of them want to have a child. Maybe Hector plans to have a child with her. He needs to have an heir for the throne. The child was supposed to be the next alpha of their pack.
Suddenly, I felt tear drops falling from my eyes. I need to be strong. The weak Luna was gone. I am a daughter of the alpha. I have Zehirah my wolf with me. I have powerful blood running in my veins. They thought I am not capable to be Hector's wife but I am more capable than anyone else.
Dad told me, I still need to be careful. Lucas was still out there searching for me. He will never get over my blood. He needs it to be the strongest.
Lately, I was able to convince dad to use my blood in an experiment. They got a few drops of my blood to mix in a vaccine that will be injected into all our werewolf fighters.
It was successful, I can see the strength among our fighters. I am proud to say that they are the best fighters. With the help of Ridge, they were all prepared for this war.
My father sent a communication to Hector's pack, to let them know that we are interested to join them in the fight. Just yesterday, when we received the letter of approval from the alpha. I felt nervous, Hector didn't know I am there. He doesn't even know that the alpha is my father.
"Luna, are you ready? We need to go." my dad calls for me.
"Yes Dad, I'm coming." I hurriedly went down.
I put on a red hood so that I won't be recognized. I'm not yet ready to face Hector. Also, I need to hide my identity. Lucas is still there waiting for me to come out.
It took us almost two hours before we arrived at the place. This place is still part of western Oregon. This land is still being controlled by Hector's pack. Werewolves inspects us at the entrance before we were allowed to get in.
In the camp, there are many tents all over the place. Dad told me, there were more or less 18 packs joined together to defeat Lucas. Hector and his pack will lead us. I felt nervous as we went inside the camp. Everyone was busy preparing for the pack war that will happen two days from now.
"Luna, are you alright? You've been very quiet since we arrived here? Don't tell me you are scared to meet your mate again." he laughs.
I kicked him and punched his chest.
"Ouch! Luna. Just kidding. I know you are just nervous. And I know you loved him so much." Ridge continued.
"Shut up! Ridge. I don't have time for your bullshit." Ridge and I became close friends. For the past few months, we've been together in the training. I admit, I really find it difficult to learn all the tactics in a fight. But thanks to Ridge, he made it easier for me.
"Here, these four tents are for the Blazing Flame pack. Let's rest for a while," my dad told us.
I entered the tent for the girls. Together with me are 15 other women who are fighters of our pack.
They are all my friends and we treated each other as sisters.
"Luna, you did great in last week's training. You and your wolf are working together," Annie said.
"Thanks, Annie. But my body still aches after that training. I think I got hurt. But I'm a little Ok now," I told her.
The rest of the girls are also talking. They are actually talking about male werewolves from other packs.
None of these girls knew that I was mated to the Blacktooth Guardians alpha.
Three girls came in and I heard their giggles.
"Mimie, did you see that? He was so handsome and hot. He is so perfect. I hope he will personally welcome us." One of the girls said.
"Hey, you girls. Whom are you talking about?" Annie asked the girls.
"It's the alpha from the Blacktooth guardians. He's outside talking to other packs. We saw him and he is so gorgeous," she replied.
I think it's Hector they are referring to. I want to run to him and hug him tight. But I'm scared. He might have forgotten about me.
Now that he is with Jasmine. I'm sure they will plan to have a baby again.
I just remained quiet on one side of the tent until Ridge came in.
"Girls, let's go. The Blacktooth Guardians alpha called for us all. He has an important announcement. We need to hear this,"
All of us went immediately to the center of the camp. I used my red hood hoping Hector will not recognize me.
In the center of the camp, there were a lot of people circled on a stage. I am a little far from the stage. I am nervous to go near.
My eyes caught Hector wearing just his pants and he was really damn hot. His abs were still so attractive. His face slightly changed as little stubble grew on his face. But he was still handsome and his figure was very manly.
Beside him were Jasmine and Stefan. I felt a pinch in my chest as I saw Jasmine, thinking she carried the alpha's child a few months ago. Or maybe, she's pregnant again this time. It hurts to see the one you love, building a family with another woman.
Hector stood on the stage as he scanned the number of werewolves in the camp. He looks more responsible than ever. He is really doing his alpha duties.
"Welcome everyone. It's so nice to see werewolves from the different packs uniting as one,"
He continue speaking and everyone was listening to him.
“Two days from now, we will be fighting in a war. It is a war for freedom. Freedom against an evil pack,” he continued.
His eyes roam around the crowd when his eyes landed in my direction. I was stunned. I swallowed and my heartbeat becomes fast.
"Oh, no. Did he recognize me?"
