"Alpha Hyungsik, alert the frontier wolves, I'm sure it's the night patrol and the border guards who are engaged at present." Aera promptly analyzed the situation, stepping into the responsibility of leadership in the absence of the pack Alpha.
"That's right Luna, the alert has already been issued." Alpha Hyungsik replied, he too had immediately taken the required action, as soon as the news of the attack reached him.
"That is good, dispatch a warning to the pack members, none of the Omegas, children and juvenile Alphas, uncapable of combat should step out of the homes, tell them to secure their houses." Aera instructed as she locked her own house securely, with her sleeping son inside.
"I have done that as well; five Beta wolves are already running the perimeter around pack borders, to assess the numbers of the enemy." Alpha Hyungsik informed, as he accompanied the Luna towards the main Packhouse.
"You are extremely reliable, Alpha Hyungsik, if not for you and with Seojoon missing, we would have been done for." Aera expressed her gratitude to the second in command of the Calyx, Seojoon had chosen himself, an outstandingly capable comrade.
"We are lacking in number to send wolves to the pack Nova for backup, I could go myself if you say so, Luna." Hungsik suggested, but Aera shook her head.
"We need you in the frontline, Alpha, as for calling for backup, leave that to me and assist the others." Aera said, as Alpha Hyungsik accepted his Luna's command and turned into a gigantic, ash grey wolf, immediately sprinting away to aid the other pack members in combat.
"Luna we are being attacked, the rogues, they are everywhere, do something!" A panicked blonde man, entered the wooden cabin, where Aera stood behind the timber wood workspace, engrossed in a task.
The man was Kim Sangyun, Minho's father and Seojoon's younger brother.
"We are taking the necessary measures, Sangyun, this is not the time to panic." Aera wearily replied to the Alpha; Sangyun, despite being the temporary in charge of the Calyx, did nothing but cower around the main house, while their pack was wallowing in crisis.
"What necessary measures, you are so irresponsible, how could you send the pack Alpha away like this!" Sangyun accused, while Aera ignored him and kept scanning the area map, to pinpoint the shortest route towards pack Nova.
"I didn't send him away, he was called upon for a meeting by the Council, and if you're so responsible why are you roaming around here, go to the frontline, you are a trained Alpha." Aera sternly retorted, silencing the Alpha with a sharp glare.
"Listen to me carefully, Sangyun, I am leaving the pack to arrange for backup from pack Nova, Alpha Hyungsik and the others are already fighting, I will assign someone else to handle things here, I'm asking only one thing of you, my Taehyung is in the house all alone, please take care of him." Aera said, her face grim, hazel eyes pinning the Alpha with a determined stare.
"Okay." Sangyun gulped and replied shortly, as he watched in stunned silence, when Aera stepped out of the main house and turned into a beautifully lithe, golden-brown wolf.
The Luna of pack Calyx gave the last of instructions to a subordinate Beta wolf and swiftly sped through the wilderness, heading towards pack Nova.
Aera had just crossed the eastern borders of the Calyx when three different scents hit her nose, making her slow down to an eventual stop.
The shortest route to pack Nova was through the dense Oakwood Forest, from behind the waterfall.
The woods were eerily silent and the tall Oak trees loomed over the moonless sky, enveloping the pathway, in a stifling darkness.
Aera's breaths were coming in heavy pants, as she had been running non-stop; the moment her nose sensed the unmistakable scent of rogue wolves, she knew she could go no further without a fight.
She stood straight; her heart thudding rapidly in her chest, as she mind-linked all the three wolves.
"Show yourselves." Her commanding voice prodded inside the heads of the creatures.
Three full-grown wolves stepped forward, two from the front and one from behind.
"Look what we caught Yunha; it is the Luna of Calyx." Aera could hear the taunting voices and laughs in her mind.
Two of the dark-furred wolves started circling Aera, as one of them stood in front, almost as if enjoying a show.
The scents meant, there were two Alphas and a Beta, in her current state, she could handle the Beta, but fighting two Alphas at once was not a possible match even for a trained Omega, like Aera.
"Why are you attacking my pack?" Aera questioned, obtaining a tense, defensive stance.
"No particular reason Luna, we were just bored, simply wanted to have some fun." One of the Alphas answered, getting more amused when Aera growled in anger.
All of a sudden, the Beta beside her jumped on her in a surprise attack, bearing its jaw open, but Aera was faster, as she dodged him and dug her claws in one of its limbs, ripping the flesh open, successfully injuring the wolf's side, as well as its pride.
"Oh, she's a feisty one." Another Alpha spoke, with a lecherous glint in its green eyes.
The Beta wolf limped a few steps away from Aera and attacked again, but this time together with one of the Alphas.
Aera managed to dodge the Beta once more, but the Alpha behind her smashed her face on the ground and stood with a forceful paw on her snout, grinning viciously.
Aera tried to wiggle in his grip, but the wolf dug its jagged claws in her shoulder, as the Luna howled in pain.
"I would have been gentler if you would have been in your human form Omega, you could have offered me your body." The Alpha whispered in her mind, thoroughly enjoying the helpless anger that flashed in Aera's bright, raging eyes.
"Oh, how I would love to see that mighty Alpha Seojoon's face, when he finds his Luna after we're done with her, it would be priceless." The Beta spoke, as all three wolves cackled, relishing in their pathetic dream.
"You will pay, you corrupt wolves will not get away with your actions." Aera growled in their minds.
"You're one to talk, you worthless Omega!" The Alpha yelled and sunk its claws deeper in her shoulder joint, as Aera jerked in agony, her excruciating howl echoed through the rustling trees of the deserted forest.
The Luna of pack Calyx whimpered in pain, she was helpless against the strength of these wolves, she couldn't even reach pack Nova, everything was over.
Just as Aera was about to give up, even in her weak state, her nose caught the heavy scent of fresh lavender, that abruptly spread through the woods.
She could feel the Alpha's grip on her jaws, loosen in confusion.
As the scent thickened, a solitary commanding voice ringed in their heads; "Step back from my mother, or prepare to die."
