Chapter 4 Chapter 4

"THERE'S OUR MATES" Eve screams in my head and a stream of panic instantly washes over me, with their pitch black coats and large form, it suddenly dawns on me that these were the two twin alpha's.

Taking a breath to calm my racing heart and stop my panicking, i try to think of an escape plan but everything ends with the pack slaughtered as a result.

Slowly taking a step back, my first plan of action was to head quietly back to the safety of the pack without being seen

"What are you doing, their our mates. Run to them" Eve yells but i ignore her, concentrating on the task at hand. Eve continues her endless rant of screaming at me that i eventually feel a small headache forming at the back of my mind.

I begin to think as i near the forrest, why would the moon goddess pair me with these two alpha twins? Why would she be so cruel? I hadn't done anything to deserve them.

My paws accidentally step on a twig, snapping it immediately and alerting the attention of the twin alpha's.

I'm frozen in place as they turn towards me, meeting my gaze. Eve howls with joy as she tries to connect with their wolves but I wasn't going to let that happen.

With a burst of unknown speed I turn around and race back to the pack, I was the daughter of the alpha with this head start I should be able to easily outrun them, but I heard the lie in my words.

I'm halfway to the pack house, my safe haven, when my ears prick up at the sound of oncoming paws.

I try desperately to run faster but my efforts are futile.

The scent of fresh rain collides with me as one of the alpha's leap onto my back flipping me over. His eyes are pitch black indicating that his wolf is entirely in control.

"You're mine" he growls possessively but I refuse to look at him showing a clear sign of disrespect. Maybe they would reject me i think, hope momentarily fills me at the thought. Maybe they would find another attractive female who desperately wants to become Luna.

Eve begins whining melancholically inside my head at my thoughts but i continue to ignore her. I didn't want the responsibility of being Luna.

At my clear disrespect the Alpha applies pressure on my paws and a wince escape my throat as I bare my neck in submission.

He quickly releases me, stepping off me. I get up but i continue to remain in a submissive position with my head bowed.

Years ago, I heard a rumour that the Alpha's were old fashioned, apparently they strongly believed that their Luna was beneath them, not equal in status. If this rumour was true, i wouldn't survive being their mate.

"Shift" The other alpha orders watching me with scrutiny. The one that smells like vanilla continue talking, "Go behind a tree, I'll find you a shirt"

Walking behind the tree, I sneak a look at the alpha's shifting, in their human they're are gloriously beautiful, both have ripped stomachs and strong muscular arms.

They begin searching the tree's for clothing. It was customary for each pack to place clothing in the trunks of the tree's, for when we shifted.

Taking another glance, Eve begins to speak up

"Their ours" she coaxes and I can imagine her licking her lips

"Please give them a chance"

"I'm sorry....I just can't"

My apology lands on deaf ears, but I can't get roped into this lifestyle, the position of Luna frightens me and I don't want to be restrained by the two dominating alpha's.

I want the chance to roam the woods freely without the presence of my mates or guards.

Using this sacred opportunity as the alpha's are distracted searching for a shirt, I take a dress hidden in the tree trunk and shift back into a wolf.

I grip the dress between my teeth as i sprint back towards the pack house.

Reaching the door, I prick my ears and hear the two alpha's in the forrest, still searching for some clothes.

I had a few seconds to spare, i needed to escape, Ken's words come back to me from this morning, "They wouldn't dare attack the pack, not when the pack members are their mate's family"

Quickly shifting, i place the dress on and storm through the front door. I'm surprised to see my brothers and Ken crowded around the table.

"We've got a plan to get you out of the pack before the alpha's arrive" Ken says proudly

"There here and they're my mates, I'm getting my stuff and leaving" I state as their eyes go wide with shock.

"Shit" my brothers say in unison

I rush up the stairs to my bedroom, my brothers and Ken following right behind me.

"Where did you meet them" Andy says frustration and angst seeping into his voice as he paces up and down my bedroom.

"In the forest" I turn my back to them as I haphazardly throw clothes into the suitcase waiting for their outburst.

"What were you doing in the forest at night by yourself" Ken says anger colouring his voice, I turn and see that his eyes are flickering between the colour blue and black; his wolf was surfacing.

I take a moment and rest my hand on his shoulder comforting him, his eyes turn back to the beautiful bright ocean blue, unfortunately I can't change the angry expression on his face.

Even though Ken and I weren't mates he and his wolf was very protective of me.

"Look I'm sorry" I turn facing them all, "But I love being in the forrest alone with Eve, it's the only time where I feel truly free.

Looking at my brothers their angry expression slips off their face replacing it with an expression of understanding and acceptance.
