Artemis
"How dare you step foot on my territory?" I demanded as I glared at the two traitorous, backstabbing she wolves who dared to show their faces to me after the sheer hell they put me through.
"Artemis can you chill out and stop yelling? I have a headache," Barbara said rolling her eyes.

"That's Luna Artemis to you! I'm not your friend," I snapped.
"Luna Artemis you say? Wow from one alpha to the next, aren't you a lucky bitch," Tali said smirking.
"Don't you dare speak to my mate that way!" Dimitri shouted making Tali and Barbara flinch and step backwards.

"What are you doing on my territory? I won't ask again," I said pinpointing them with a glare.
"We left Emerald Guardians and we've been on our own for a while and accidentally stumbled on Crimson Blood territory, unknowingly," Barbara said nervously.

"Why did you leave the pack? Was Natalie's dictatorship and spoiled brat mentality getting to you?" Bria asked smirking.
"We just decided to strike out in our own direction," Tali mumbled. "She doesn't have any use for us anyway, her new Beta, Gamma and Delta are really hitting it off with her."

"Oh I see, you were replaced, now you know how I felt when you two ditched me for Natalie," I said smiling sweetly.
"What choice did we have? She was the future Luna, you know the punishment for defying her," Barbara protested.

"You could've followed her orders and still be friends with me, you could've done what she asked of you and still be nice. But no! You were dazzled ny her sweet talks, her designer clothes and status she held in Emerald Guardians. You betrayed me!" I shouted. "You hurt me so badly, where were you when I needed you the most? Where were you?!"

They didn't answer, they just stared, not knowing what to say.
"What shall we do with them Luna?" Dan asked.
"Take them to the edge of the territory and leave them there. They have no place here," Dimitri said as he took my arm and prepared to walk away.

"What? No! Artemis please, don't leave us," Tali begged as she dropped down on her knees.
"You had no problems leaving me alone. Why shouldn't I do the same to you?" I asked looking back at them.
"Because I'm pregnant," Barbara whimpered.

I stopped walking and turned to face her, my eyebrows raised.
"You're pregnant?" I asked skeptical at her words.
"When we were wandering around, rouges attacked us and raped me. I got pregnant with his pups,"
"And you came here to Artemis, knowing that with her kind heart, she'd never turn you away," Bria said disgustedly.

"It's not that...we thought she was still mated to Marcus," Tali said.
"I don't trust them Artemis, how do we know she's telling the truth? She could be lying to get in Crimson Blood," Dimitri mindlinked me.
"I know you have your doubts babe, but what if she's really telling the truth? I'm not like them, or Natalie, or Alec or my mother. I can't do what they did," I said as to reassure my mate.

"I think we should drop them off at Shining Cosmos, Marcus will get some new flowers for his bouquet," Alessandro said grinning at Bria who smirked and elbowed him playfully.
"Stop it guys, we'll bring them back to the packhouse," I said folding my arms across my chest.

"What?" Dimitri, Bria and Alessandro exclaimed in unison.
"I'm not them you guys, I can't leave Tali and Barbara here. I don't want to bring them home, but I can't leave them here, if I do that, I won't be any better than Natalie or Alec or my mother, I can't be like that," I said shrugging my shoulders.

My father walked up to me and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"I'm proud of you sweetheart. Despite everything they did to you, you're willing to put it all behind you and do the right thing,"
I smiled at him then turned back to Tali and Barbara.

"You may come with us to the packhouse," I said begrudgingly.
"Yes! Thank you Artemis," Barbara said excitedly.
"We are not on friendly terms, I am merely doing it because of humanity. Don't assume you're on my page," I said sternly. "And you will address me by my title, Luna Artemis."

"Oh..okay, sure... Luna Artemis," Tali said averting eye contact.
"Let's go home," I said in a gentler tone as I took Dimitri's arm and walked with him back to the packhouse with Bria, Alessandro, my Dad, Mr Chekhov, Tali and Barbara.
"Don't assume just because she's allowing you into the packhouse means that you deserve it," Bria said coldly.
"What are you talking about?" Barbara asked.

"I don't trust you two. I've got my eyes on you tramps,"
"Tramps? Are you serious?" Tali growled. "You filthy pile of-"
"Tali don't dare speak to my Gamma that way or there will be problems!" I shouted turning to face her.
"Yes Artemis," she mumbled almost inaudibly.
"What was that? I thought I heard something,"
"Yes Luna Artemis,"
