Chapter 17

Lsabella's pov :
This Purple Moon Pack war was a tragedy caused by a fake MATE.
We received the order to run to the front line that night, so we left overnight.
This time things were very rushed, Olivia fell into the water without any results, we are about to go to war.
On the way, Mr. Wyatt told us how the war started and what happened.
"The probability of the so-called pseudo-mate occurring is very small. Simply put, due to the influence of blood relations, werewolves may be disturbed when connecting to a mate for the first time, mistaking the blood relative of the mate for the mate, thus developing into a tragic case of misidentification. Unless one finds one's true MATE, such a false MATE will last a lifetime."
"Purple Moon Pack's previous Alpha had two sons, Andy and Gary. at the previous Alpha meeting, Miss Lsabella should have met Mr. Andy."
"Yes, I have the impression."
"When their father was still alive, Andy and Gary both fell in love with Yana, the most beautiful maiden of Purple Moon Pack, and on the day of Yana's birthday awakening, she found out that her mate was Andy, and then Andy successfully sat on the throne, and Gary was banished from his territory and became a lone wolf.
After this news, Andy was so angry that he used the excuse that Yana was not her mate to drive Yana off the throne, and Yana died of depression.
After learning this news, Gary assembled an army of rogues from East Island and vowed to kill Purple Moon Pack and avenge Yana.
Now the rogue army has already hit Purple Moon Pack's doorstep, that's why their group is in such a hurry to rush us to leave."
So that's how it is, but I listened to it this way, I actually thought Gary's reason for going to war was very good and reasonable, Andy drove the older Luna off the throne and found a new MATE himself, this thing is too ugly to do. If I am that Luna, I guess I will carry the knife and cut the Alpha myself.
But Purple Moon Pack in the end belongs to our Alpha alliance, and the rogue army originally plagued the communities on the East Continent, this temporary assembly, may not be able to listen to Gary's command, to the end of the war or a scourge.
So I suppressed the dissatisfaction in my heart, asked for a map, and began to familiarize myself with the terrain.
"Xavier, come over here and look at it together." I waited for a while, but Xavier did not come over. I turned my head and saw him sitting there in a daze. It was strange, he started to wander off after listening to Wyatt's story.
"Xavier?" I shook his shoulder, "What are you thinking about that's so engrossing, I've called you several times."
Xavier was startled, and it was then that he came back to his senses: "Lsabella, sorry, I was just thinking about something else."
"It's okay," I put the map in front of him, "Let's familiarize ourselves with the terrain first, this time it's a joint army battle, we may lack tacit understanding, we need to make up for the rest."
"It's okay, Lsabella. I'll protect you."
Xavier was back to his previous form, and he gazed at me with a very sincere gaze that made me feel truly at ease, and my tense heart relaxed.
"I'm your Alpha, where do I need your protection anymore, you just have to follow me to defeat the rogues."
"Yes, Alpha."
Xavier's Pov:
At night, I fell asleep watching Lsabella.
I couldn't sleep, my mind was now full of pseudo-mates, thoughts that were long lost were burning wildly at this moment, how I wished Lsabella and Jasper were also pseudo-mates.
This little sporadic flame fell on my long-dead heart, and then uncontrollably, my whole heart began to burn hard for this, I no longer dare to think about this matter I, I am afraid that I will now take Lsabella away.
I forced myself to calm down and not to screw this up.
I remembered that on the day I came of age, I originally smelled a strange scent, and although the scent was pulling me into a deep sleep, I suspected that it was the smell of my MATE.
However I fell into the pain that was about to destroy me, my MATE relationship or wolf, all disappeared and I have not been able to contact my wolf until now.
I have asked the clan elders long ago, and they have not encountered such a situation either. Originally Blood Moon Pack still had three elders, and the catastrophe ten years ago made our pack lose too much.
I secretly hooked Lsabella's hand in the darkness, good thing we still have each other, no matter what the truth of the matter really is, I will always guard her.
Suddenly, I got up in the darkness. Because I heard a subtle rattle in the distance, Jasper's warriors extinguished the campfire in an instant.
It seems my judgment was not wrong, someone is hiding in the dark.
Here is the fascinating thing about the dark forest, we all hid in the darkness and relied on a fight to the death to judge who was the better fighter on both sides.
I did not choose to wake Lsabella, these few minions to me will be fine.
I exchanged a look with the warriors on watch, then sneaked into the bushes in the dark.
There were about five rogues nearby, which must have been a small group, two of which were very close to me, just a few meters away.
The clouds covered the bright moon, and I transformed my form in a flash under the shelter of the moon goddess.
No one noticed me.
My explosive power would be stronger in the mind of a wolf, and I pressed down my predecessor, my eyes dead on the werewolf in the tree.
The clouds were blown away by the wind, and the moonlight shone on the earth again. The bright light fell through the gaps in the branches, partly on the bushes, and the werewolf in the tree seemed to be in doubt, he could not identify whether the black shadow was the shaking of the shade or the coming of death.
I pounced on it in a flash, as fast as a white shadow flashed.
The werewolf's head was already in my mouth, the blood coming and dripping with me a few meters away.
I did not pause, another flash, the werewolf under the far tree only a chance to turn around, then my teeth bite down, his head also left his body.
Uninterested, I spit out the werewolf's head, regained my form, and wiped away the blood I had accidentally splattered on my body in the moonlight.
The sounds of fighting in the distance also stopped, and Declan left one alive.
We returned to the camp and the campfire had been re-lit.
Jasper sat in the main seat by the campfire, with Lsabella sitting beside him.
Seeing me back, Lsabella lunged at once, and I caught her steadily.
"You're not on watch tonight, what are you doing? Not hurt, right?"
I was in an extraordinarily good mood in the face of Lsabella's repeated inquiries.
"I'm fine, I couldn't sleep and happened to hear a strange noise."
The warriors under Jasper were very sharp, and the werewolf was already tied up and brought up. A few cuts and he was willing to say anything.
The rogue army led by Gary already knew about the movement of the combined forces, and this was a prying squad, and this rogue, who was in so much pain that his face was contorted, told us that there were two more such squads.
Declan at this point to Jasper's advice: "Alpha, I think we need to speed up the advance, or else once the other rogues have spied on our movement, it will be bad if we encounter an ambush."
I do think the possibility of encountering a rogue ambush has always been high because they do not have a fixed territory and have been using theft and looting to plunder resources. The terrain in this area is also certainly not as familiar to us as the rogues.
I looked to Lsabella with some concern and she looked to me, it seems we were thinking the same thing.
Jasper finally stood up after pondering: "Okay, it's decided, destination Purple Moon Pack, all hands on deck!"
The wolves who heard his order all started to pack their bags and prepared to leave. I walked through the busy crowd and went to Lsabella's side.
Lsabella grabbed my arm, her radiant green eyes emitting a blinding light in the moonlight: "Whatever the mission, you must not play with your life, you must end this war alive."
"Yes, my Alpha."
I cupped her hand and gently dropped a kiss on the back of her hand.
"And you be safe."
Charlotte's Pov.
I saw correctly that the relationship between Lsabella and his Beta was not that simple, especially the way Xavier looked at Lsabella, and because of the similarities between his and Jasper's looks, I also felt my heartache whenever I saw their intimate scenes.
Before I was an adult, I accompanied my father to meet Jasper who came to negotiate with our community.
He was different from all the men I had met up until then. His special childhood experience made his eyes much deeper than those of his peers, and while other boys were still competing with their partners for strength, he could already bring his Beta to negotiate with the neighboring community.
But Jasper is not like the leaders of our pack, including our father, he has a handsome young appearance, elegant demeanor, and does not indulge in preaching like those old men.
I fell into the hole while hunting.
Because Jasper was also present, I rushed to the front of the group despite my father's advice, I just wanted to show myself in front of Jasper.
It was a good thing that it was just an ordinary hole covered by grass and there was no organ set by the rogue below.
But I still fell and broke my leg, at that time I was not able to transform my form, in short, I was trapped here.
When I was about to support, a light shone down, I saw Jasper, he found me.
He was not an adult at that time, and there was no way to get me up with the little tools he had.
Just when I was thinking about how to talk to him and beg him to stay with me nearby, Jasper leaped down and slid along the cave wall to me.
He came down to stay with me.
"Because I also almost fell off the cliff when I was a child, so I know this fear and loneliness. Don't worry, I will be here with you."
O Goddess of the Moon, is this the miracle you have given me? Such a special boy and I have long been in love with him, and now you tell me that this boy is also so tender to me.
I gently leaned on Jasper's shoulder and he didn't duck away.
Right at this moment, I tied all the rest of myself to this man.
But I had worked so hard to get to this point, with pain and joy, that I paralyzed myself that it was all worth it. Then this woman Lsabella came along and in a matter of days she achieved what I hadn't gotten in all those years.
She was praised for being worthy of Jasper, recognized by Jasper, made Jasper's mate, and declared his Luna by Jasper.
Lsabella, on the other hand, only had to sue and I was not only imprisoned but all the things I had worked for were destroyed.
Jasper wouldn't even let me join the Blue Moon Pack in the war!
I had to make connections to get into the Cyan Moon Pack squad, and I could only watch them from afar. I looked at Jasper, who was getting farther and farther away from me, and Lsabella, who had a Xavier by her side but was still thinking about me, and how happy they were, and how miserable I was.
How come Lsabella has not been punished yet? Wasn't Olivia's several "accidents" bad enough?
I clenched my fist in the darkness, I would not let her go even if I had to risk my life.
