Ash's POV
I woke up in complete darkness with my hands chained to the ground 'Where am I?' I ask myself and give my eyes a minute to adjust to the darkness before looking around to find myself in a cave. "Good to see that you're awake." Said a voice and I looked in the shadows to see a man walk forward, a torch in his hand, "Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Maxwell Forenta." I looked at him and felt a burning feeling deep inside me. "I really don't give a shit about who you are, all I want to know is why you kidnapped me and where I am!" I shout at him and he laughs. "You should learn to keep your mouth shut kid, but I will answer your questions. I kidnapped you because you are mates with the Alpha of pack White Moon, and I need to use you to get him to step down from his position and give me control of the pack. As to where you are, I can't tell you that." He puts the torch in a holder on the side of the wall and turns to walk away. "All will be told shortly, but until then you will remain as my prisoner until you're needed." I glare at him, "GET YOUR PATHETIC ASS BACK HERE AND TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!" I shout loudly, my mind whirling with questions. Max stops and turns to look at me, his eyes red and a sinister smirk on his face, "I need you alive, but that doesn't mean I can't torture you for my enjoyment." He growls and stalks back towards me, opening the gate with the flick of his wrist and kneeling infront of me. "Ever heard of hell fire?" He asks and I shake my head no, not knowing anything that he is talking about. "Hell fire is a type of flame that covers the body, it doesn't burn you, but it simulates the feeling of burning in hell," he said and held out his hand, palm up and I see a ball of black flames form in his hand, I look at the flames then at him, my fear obvious. "Enjoy the pain." He touches my chest and the pain starts in the center of my chest and spreads to everywhere else on my body, as I feel the pain spread quickly I let out a loud scream thats mixed with fear, anger and pain. "This will teach you to respect me!" He spat in my face and laughed evily. I opened my tear filled eyes and looked down to see my hands glowing a bright blue and the pain easing, I then look up to see Max looking at me with confusion and fear clear in his eyes. "I don't need to show respect towards you! I DON'T TAKE ORDERS FROM ANYONE!" I shout and a ring of electricity forms around me and it quickly burst out in a wide circle, causing Max to be thrown backwards, I feel the chains break and I stand up and get banged against the rock wall, my hands and eyes glowing but beginning to fade as I feel my energy drain rapidly. As the last of my energy fades and I pass out and fall to the ground, the last thing I see before complete darkness is Max trying to get up, and a Moon and Star symbol on my wrist.

Angel's POV
I paced back in forth in my dimly lit office trying to figure out what to do to get my mate back. "Hey, you need to get some rest, you haven't slept in 2 days." My sister said as she put her hand on my shoulder to try and stop me. "I will not sleep until my mate is found... This is all my fault, if only I told him what was going on before. If I told him then maybe I could've kept him safe! I'm such a horrible mate, I don't deserve him..." I sat down in my chair and clenched my fists. Ivy put her hand on my shoulder and hugged me from behind, "You're not a bad mate, a bad mate wouldn't care, but you do. And i'm sure you will think of something to find him." She said in an attempt to comfort me. "I do-" the rest of my sentence was cut off by a scream of pain from downstairs and I jumped up, sprinting to the source of the scream. I burst into the living room and saw Ayame on the ground holding her wrist "What's wrong?!" I ask quickly and help her up. "My wrist..." She held it out and I saw a Moon and Star symbol shining brightly, "It's the royal crest... it's only supposed to show when someone of royal blood uses magic... but I have been cursed to not use it in the mortal world." She looked up, fear flashing through her eyes, "We need to find Ash." She whispered and pulled away from me. I nod and look at Ivy, "Come to my office with Charles and Jackson." I say and walk up the stairs and to my office, Ayame following closely. I sat on my desk and Ayame stood next to me, about a minute later Ivy, Jackson, Charles and Margaret come through the door. "Margaret? What are you doing here?" I ask the elder and she looks at me with a smile, "I may be old but that doesn't mean i'm going to sit around and do nothing while you look for your mate." She says and I nod, knowing better than to argue with her. I look at Ayame and nod for her to begin talking, "Well, only Ivy and Angel know this so I suppose i'll tell you as well, my name is Ayame Cromwell and I am the rightful Queen of the Moon Kingdom, which means that Ash, my son, is the Crown Prince, our magic is unusable in the mundane world but I think that Ash has figured out a way to use his magic. I do not know how but what I do know is this, Ash is in danger if anyone finds out he is a Moon Witch, none the less, the Prince." She says and I look up, "We must form a search party to find him, he is in danger." I say and the others nod, "Charles, I want you to get three others and they will join me, you and Jackson as we search for him." Margaret growled slightly, "I'm coming with you." She said sternly, "No you aren't, you are to stay here with Ayame and keep the pack under order, everyone listens to you." Margaret nodded but still looked angry. Ayame walked forward and stood next to Margaret. "We will keep your pack safe," she said, "I promise." I nodded and looked at Charles, "Go find three others and we will go." He nodded and sprinted out with Jackson to go find the other members of our party. "Angel. You must remember to be careful, you still do not have full control over your powers."Margaret said to me and Ayame looked confused, "You have powers?" She asked me and I nodded sightly, "I am the white wolf." Ayame looked surprised but nodded. "I must go, keep my pack safe." I said before walking out of the room and down the stairs to wait for the others. "So, you're gonna look for your precious mate?" Said a voice from behind me and I turned to see a angry April, "How could you leave me like this Angel?" She asked, her voice laced with sadness, "Because I found my mate. And we didn't have anything anyways, you're a slut so just go find another guy to fuck because were done." I growled, feeling impatient and annoyed. April's hurt faded to anger, "I'd watch the way you talk to her." Said a voice from behind me that I recognized immediately. "Max," I growled and forgot about April, turning and facing my uncle. "Thats the name, don't wear it out." He said smoothly and he walked out of the shadows, or should I say, limped. "I'm not here to fight," he said and looked at me with a smirk, "I came here to make an offer with you." I laughed, "What do you want?" I asked him and he leaned against a tree, "If you want to see your Moon Bitch again and unharmed then you will give up your title as Aplha of this pack, and give it to me." He said and it took all my will power not to jump on him and rip his throat out,'This bitch! If he harms our mate I will kill him!' Frost growled at me, 'Calm down, we need him alive... for now.' I said back and took a step forward "If you harm my mate you will regreat it." I said in a low growl. "Well, i'm giving you an opportunity to get him back, if you don't take it then oh well," he smiled brightly, "I guess ima have a lot of fun with the young prince." My heart stopped for a moment, "How do you know that he is the prince?!" I snarled and he looked at his watch, "Thats for me to know and you to find out, i'll give you until tomorrow to think about this. I will be back." After that he turned and disappeared in the shadows, damn demons, able to travel through shadows. I turned and punched a tree as hard as I could, yelping in pain but smirking in satisfaction as I see that the tree tilted a bit. "I will see you tomorrow. And you will learn why you shouldn't mess with the white wolf." I whispered and turned around, stalking back inside to let the others know what happened.
