"That's... Oh my God that's Luna." Harry grabs the pages out of Louis' grasp with shakey fingers.

Harry stares at the sketch, but has to look away. It's way to detailed. When he looks up at Louis, he lets out a small whimper.

Louis' eyes are completely red, his chest heaving as he takes heavy breaths. His hands are griping the edge of the table so hard that his knuckles are pure white.

"L-Louis?" Harry asks nervously. He needs comfort from his alpha, badly.

"She's going to far. She's gorn to fucking far." A shiver runs down Harrys spine at hearing Louis' alpha voice.

Harry goes to say something but a loud knocking on the door stops him. He can pick up on his pups scent so he goes to stand up but Louis' strong grip on his forearm stops him.

"No, I'll get it. Stay here." He says with authority, leaving no room for argument. He opens the door and sees Niall and Maria smiling back at him with Luna and Adira talking by their feet.

"Hey mate, just came back to drop this little rascal off." Niall fluffs up Luna's hair.

"Uncle Niii." She whines, trying to fix her hair again.

Louis lets himself feel relief at seeing his daughter completely fine and unscratched. Safe.

He bends down and picks her up, holding her close in a massive hug. "Hey baby." He breaths in her comforting scent, one that smells like his and Harrys combined.

"Hi dada!" She exclaims back, not noticing how upright and stressed her farther is.

"Hey what's up Lou? You seem agitated." Niall frowns at him.

Louis shakes his head. "I'll tell you later. Thank you so much for watching her."

"It's all good, anytime." Maria smiles.

Usually he'd tell Luna to say thank you and stay chatting for a while but instead he's rushing to get back inside to his omega.

He sits back down and notices Harrys dad staring at Luna. Fuck, he forgot that he's never Luna before.

He quickly glances at Harry, silently asking what to do. He sees him take a deep breath before speaking.

"Dad, this is Luna. And pup this is, your grandfather."

Luna looks at the older man with a frown. "What?"

"You know how grandma and grandpa are your grandparents because they're Dada's parents?" Luna nods. "Well you also have another grandfather, this man."

"Really!?" She exclaims with wide eyes.

Louis nods. "Really."

She jumps off Louis' lap and all they can see is the very top of her little head bobbing up and down as she runs over to Harry's dad.

The man quickly leans down and catches her in his arms, letting her cuddle into him. He squeezes his eyes shut at feeling them get watery. This is the first time he's ever helt or seen his granddaughter.

"Hi grandad! D'wanna play toys!?" She asks as if they've known eachother for ever.

He looks at Louis and Harry, a silent plea to let him.

"Sure, you take him to your toys? Me and daddy are doing to stay here for a while okay?"

"Okay Ma!" She grabs Harry's dads hand and quickly leads him away, chattering the whole time.

Harry waits until they're out of ear shot before collapsing into Louis' chest, gripping the back of his shirt tightly. "Louis what are we gonna do? What if she hurts you or Luna? I-"

"Hey, hey. Shhh, calm down baby."

"No! Why would she draw that stuff Lou? Why..."

"I don't know love, I wish I did." By now Harry's completely in Louis' lap, needing to be as close as possible, while Louis gentally rocks them side to side.

"I've got a bad feeling about this." Harry admits.

"I'll keep you both safe, don't worry." Louis puts his hand on the back of Harry's head where his face is smushed into his neck, scenting him.

But Louis knows that this isn't going to end pretty. They're dealing with absolute psychos who don't care who they kill as long as they get what they want. Revenge.

But he knows one thing. And that's no matter what happens, he'll always be there for Harry and Luna. He'll always protect them, even if that costs himself his life.

***

The next day Louis needs to go into the office for a meeting about the war. So with alot of hesitation, goodbye kisses and promises to keep all doors and windows locked, he leaves Harry, Luna and their unborn pup home.

It's half way through the meeting when Liam clears his throat to speak. "A group of rogues where seen hanging around the water control systems early this morning. Luckily they were spotted as they were arriving so nothing happened. But we think they were trying to do something bad to the water, like poison it." He explains.

"How many troops are around that area?" Louis asks him.

"About 30."

"Alright... I might not put any more there. 30's heaps."

"I agree." Liam nods with approval.

"How many of ours have been found dead?" This is always Louis' least favourite part of the meetings. Hearing how many lives have been lost defending their pack

"This week, 16." Liam lowers his head. "All bodies have been found."

"Okay." Louis sighs with a sad frown, looking across the table to an old lady. "Are they ready for the ceremony tomorrow night?"

She nods.

Every week they have a ceremony for all the men and woman who have died fighting, letting their families and friends morn their loss and for them to all say a final thank you for their service. After the ceremony, they bury them in a nice little secluded area in the woods where all pack members are buried.

"Have their families been notified?"

She looks down. "Some of them have, some bodies had to be identified first. They were very..."

She doesn't finish her sentence, but Louis knows what she means. "Okay, thank you Linda." He smiles at her. He couldn't imagine how hard it must be to tell multiple families that their loved one was killed. It's absolutely awful.

The meeting goes smoothly, and finally after a few hours Louis' on his way back home to his little family.
