A war had started between both feline and canine shifters with other shifters caught in the cross fire. One queen did not want her cubs to be hurt and made a decision to hide them. She hoped that in the future her cubs would be treated fairly by the canine shifters. Her three cubs were due to shift back into their human forms soon. Speaking of humans, their race is pretty much extinct now. Which is want the queen's race is about to become.
You see the canines wanted the feline shifters to be more like them and have only one mate. Except the felines form prides where one or two tom-cats would have many mates to continue their bloodline. Sure there is a lead female, but they don't have set mates like the canines from the moon goddess. Who created both species and only gave the canines soulmates. Which can be another canine, human or other shifter. A few felines have been mates of canines, but the males don't stay loyal as it is in their nature to have more then one spouse. The females are more loyal, but if their mate loses a fight to an other male. They will choice the other male to have young with as it is in their nature to have young with the strongest male. As he can protect their off spring from reveals.
This queen however is loyal and has been to her mate for years. These three cubs are their first off spring. Except the war started while she was pregnant putting her and the cubs at risk. So her mate took their pride further away from the canines. Hoping they'd be left in peace. Their is not like other feline prides and is more like a wolf pack. Which makes others of their kind shun them and refuse to protect them. Each queen has only one tom-cat and there are other cubs on the way.
But the canines the wolf shifters decided to attack the queen's pride. She decided to save her daughter first and picked up Analise. The queen could hear the fighting as she run to away to met a friend of hers. He is a bear shifter and lives alone. He met her at the door and took Analise saying "please stay Kita it is to dangerous to save the others." But Kita would not listen she felt her mates pain and run back to her pride's house.
To see it in flames as she heard her final two cubs cries and she sees her mate trying to protect them. He was badly burnt and was dying slowly. She knew he had saved them from the fire as she ran to help him. However he was surrounded by wolves. The others were dead, just the five remained.
"How does it feel? Being the last of your kind? Knowing you couldn't protect your cubs or queens?" a wolf asked sneering.
"I only have one queen and she is about to kill you" her mate told the wolf. The queen took that as her signal and attacked the wolves. She managed to kill them all, but was fatally wounded as was her mate. She crawled over to her mate and last to cubs. "Where is Analise? I couldn't find her in the house" her mate asks nuzzling her.
"I left her with Blake and came back for you along with the other two" she tells him as she looks at her dying cubs. "What is wrong with them?" she asks as she tries to comfort her coughing cubs.
"They inhaled to much smoke, Kita we are the last of our kind. What the mutt said is right. They killed the other feline shifters, our daughter will be the last. You were right to save her first, she is special" he tells quietly. So there next to their burning house surrounded by dead shifters they curled around their last two cubs. The four of them closed their eyes and never awoke again from their eternal slumber.
The moon goddess watched from above ashamed of what her children have done. Sadden at the lost of her feline children. So she decided to bring them back one day when the last survivor Analise was grown up. She first went to the strongest wolf shifter pack to visit the alpha and his small family.
When he saw his goddess standing before him, he bowed down as did his mate who held their year old son. He was not like the other wolf pack, he had no issue with the felines way of life. Though he would never betray his mate that way. "The felines have been killed every single one is dead. The pack that attacked them is also dead. However one cub survived and is still alive. I have come up with a way to bring back the feline race. But I require your son's help" she explains looking at the baby in the Luna's arms.
"How can our son help you my lady?" Luna asks as she stands from the rocking chair holding her son close.
"He will not be harmed, but would it be ok with you both if I mated him to the last survivor of the feline race. She is only two months old and has not shifted back into her human form yet. But I will not force this upon you, it is your decision. However, please keep in mind if you agree you will be saving an entire race from extinction" the goddess explains.
"I never had a problem with the felines way of life though I would never choose it as my own. If my wife/mate/Luna agrees, then you may continue your plan with our son" the Alpha states.
They looked at the Luna who looked at her son thinking it over. Her best friend was a feline and she had died tonight. Luna would do anything to bring back the race that was killed without a purpose and any reason. "If we do this the feline race will return?" she asks the clarify.
"Yes, it won't bring back the dead felines. But new felines will raise in their place starting with the first offspring of your son and the last survivor. When they fully mate I will have to power to recreate the feline shifters" the goddess clarifies.
"Then do it, I would be honoured to know our son will help save an entire race" Luna said smiling and the alpha also smiles. The moon goddess smiled placing a hand over the baby's heart as she kissed his forehead. A light shined from both and she pulled away.
"It is done, now I must go check on the cub. By the way it may interest you to know, but her mother's name was Kita" the goddess told them. Luna smiled knowing her son was mated to her dead best friend's daughter. The goddess left and see the Analise was ok.
She was fine except for the fact that her and her new guardian were now in cages. This angered her, but she decided to do nothing as neither was seriously hurt. So instead she followed them to the slave camp and when they were left alone she appeared before the cub along with her bear guardian.
"I am sorry that I cannot help you, but I promise you will both be free" she states as she kissed the cubs forehead. As she pulled back the cub shifted into her human form with bright blue eyes. "Good luck Analise Cheetah and Blake Brown (bear shifter/her new guardian) I will watch over you from above" she promises and disappears.
Blake woke up to Analise cries and sees that she has turned human. She is now a baby instead of a cheetah cub. He took off his cloak and wrapped it around her holding her close. "Hush little one, I promise to look out for you always. No one is going to hurt you while I am around" he promises her as she now sleeps peacefully in his big arms. He to fell asleep as the moon goddess watched over them from above. She sent a message to the alpha and Luna informing them of the cubs situation. But telling them not to do anything for sixteen years and they promised they would wait.
