Vida's POV Cont. *********

I go straight to my bathtub to soak my stress away. I light a few candles I have places around the tub, turning off the lights. If my Gran would let me, I would have a glass of wine too but, no such luck. I have the water as hot as I can take it when I get in to soak and chillax. Some people meditate, I marinate in the tub with scented candles, and I love it. Being dearly loved is a lot of pressure and all I want to do is go horseback riding.

"It's weird how you like horses so much, a werewolf on a horse, hilarious." Red said.

"Are you calling- my conversation interrupted.

"Vida? Are you-" said Ares busting in the door.

A few minutes before...


Ares POV******

"All clear Alpha, no unusual movement." informed Ken.

"It looks like we are going back to the cabin. Scout ahead." I order.

"Yes Alpha." Ken replied leaping out of the tree he perched in.

My men and I aren't normally this formal. But guarding our Luna is our greatest priority, our greatest mission.

"How are you doing Alpha?" asked Zane getting no reply from Ares walking to stand to his side. "If it makes you feel better you aren't actually fishing, and this isn't a river it's a pond. We killed all the hunters. Luna will be safe, and we are ready. Put what happened to our previous Luna out of your mind. If you're thinking about that you will not be focused on today." said Zane being a good friend and beta.

"I know that Zane just shut up! We're leaving do another perimeter run of the pack." I say knowing he is right, but I don't want to hear it. Zane groans but replies, "Yes Alpha." shakes his head going to do another perimeter run for the journey back to the cabin..

By the time I've checked in with Ken and my eyes focus again I see Vida in her beautiful red fur dash off with her pets to her cabin. I quickly jump on the 4-wheeler speeding behind in her dust. I push the gas to it limit but, the 4-wheeler cannot keep up with her.

"Mate is fast." said Jax with pride. "And a more beautiful wolf than I have ever dreamed of. Did you see her Auburn eyes? And her red fur?" said Jax in a mate-stricken haze.

"She is so different than we imagined." added Ares.

"I hope you mean she is more beautiful than we dreamed?" quipped Jax "She has fire red hair and creamy soft white skin like the Moon Goddess herself."

"The Moon Goddess?" asks Ares as the motor of the 4-wheeler hums.

"As much as you had to learn about the Gods as a pup you should have learned something." snapped Jax.

"What are you talking about?'" said Ares confused.

"Don't you remember the old "History of the Gods' book that had the old paintings of the Gods in their human and beast forms in it?" said Jax.

"Oh yea, I liked it because it was the only one with pictures." said Ares coming to a stop.

"Remember the painting of Shedu and Pterolycus?" asked Jax

"Yea, I - Oh Yea. She does have hair and skin the same color as Pterolycus. But, how is that possible? Her whole family have black hair and olive skin?" asks Ares.
