Chapter 4 Fight With The Rogues

The forest was too vast, so Livia wouldn't be surprised if it took her until dawn to get back to the pack house. As she walked through the dark forest, with only the faint light of the moon illuminating her way, she couldn't help but cry as she thought about what had happened earlier.

Her image had been tarnished by her sister's actions, and she didn't know how she could face everyone anymore.

Everyone seemed to think she was the bad one, thanks to Amber's manipulation. Livia didn't know what to do. Aldrake was even more angry with her now.

She was trying her best not to engage with Amber anymore, hoping to improve her image and get Aldrake's attention, but it seemed like Amber was determined to ruin everything.

It hurt to think that Aldrake wasn't listening to her, that his mind was closed off to her. She didn't have any other intentions; all she wanted was for him to notice her and show her some love. That's all.

> "I told you, Livia, leave him! We don't deserve a bastard like him! We can still find a man who can love you back, and that's not him, Livia". Her wolf, Lilly, growled inside her head.

"But I love him--".

> "And he doesn't love you, Livia! Come on, don't be so desperate! Leave him and let's find our happiness! He's not the only man destined for you, Livia. Our Moon Goddess has another plan for you, and I know that".

"It's easy to say "leave him", Lilly, but it's hard to do, especially when I love him so much".

> "St*pid--" Lilly's words were cut off by a wolf suddenly appearing in front of Livia.

A rogue! F*ck! Why now, when she's not in the right state to fight?.

> "Unleash me, Livia! Let me handle that dog. I want to release my burning anger toward that bastard you call husband!". Lilly's growl echoed in Livia's mind. Her wolf can't control the anger, so she growls loudly in her mind.

"You're not in a good condition to fight, Lilly!" Livia firmly told her, studying the rogue's every move.

Its teeth were razor-sharp, and it was drooling like it was ready to devour her.

> "Trust me, Livia. My burning anger would help me k*ll that sh*tty dog!! Just unleash me, NOW!!" Livia was taken aback by Lilly's loud shout, which made her close her eyes.

She had no choice but to let Lilly take control of her body. "Take care" Were the last words Livia said before they shifted forms.

A loud howl came from Lilly after she took over Livia's body. Lilly was a large white wolf with gentle, deep-set blue eyes. She was a trained wolf. When Livia's best friend was still alive, she would often take them to train with the pack members.

Livia used to be one of the pack warriors, to make her body stronger and more resilient. But after Kleo d*ed, Livia stopped training. She wasn't close to the pack members anyway, since they preferred Amber's company.

So, after her friend's passing, Lilly and Livia would train at midnight. But because the mating bond with her mate, Aldrake wasn't complete, even if they train a hundred times, it won't make them stranger like other Luna.

> "It's nice to be in control. Now, show me what you got, sh*tty dog!".

The rogue in front of them didn't waste any time and attacked immediately, and Lilly did the same.

While fighting, they were taken aback by three more rogues emerging from the darkness.

> "Sh*t! They've planned this!" Lilly said.

They became alert after being surrounded by the rogues.

"Look at that, a Luna who got lost in our territory" One of the rogues said.

Livia fell silent at what she heard. She stared at him, and that's when she noticed he was bigger than his companions. At this point, it seemed like they were in trouble, especially since Lilly wasn't in top condition. It looked like the one in front of them was the leader.

"Lilly, we better run than feel sorry. You aren't in a good condition, so we better run before they k*ll us!!" Livia warned Lilly, but she was stubborn.

> "Ain't my forte to run, Livia. I'm Luna's wolf, so I'm not going to run like a scared kitten. So be ready!".

"Lilly, this isn't the time to be proud! You're not in a good condition, so----Lilly!!" It was too late to warn her, as she charged at the rogues.

Her body was weak due to the lack of communication with her mated wolf, and the same went for Livia.

They weren't bonded to their mate, which is why they experienced weakness at times. The third full moon was approaching, and they still hadn't had their mating session, which would have strengthened their bodies and wolf forms. And now, their fate is to fight until their ends come without any shared help with their mates.

One against four. They were at a disadvantage because the rogues were attacking them simultaneously. They didn't have eyes in the back of their heads, so Lilly couldn't avoid getting hurt.

"Lilly, let's just run!!" Livia shouted, but Lilly wasn't listening.

> "Argh!!" Lilly growled in pain as one of the rogues bit into her leg, while she was also wounded on her face due to the rogue's long claws.

Livia called out to her, "Lilly," but she didn't respond.

Livia was scared to death, thinking that this was the end for both of them, but to her surprise, a large wolf attacked the leader of the rogues. It bit into his neck before throwing him far away.

The rogue's body even hit the tree trunk, which was the cause of its death. Then, it attacked the rogue's companions, and in almost a minute, it had killed all the rogues.

Lilly collapsed to the ground due to the extreme weakness of her body from the wounds she had sustained. And because she couldn't control her body anymore, Livia slowly shifted back to her human form.
