"The alpha is truly taking you to Riverton?" My Gamma, Noda spoke as I watch a maid pack my belongings.

She placed many dresses inside the trunk. Since I have been here, Eron have got me many dresses of all shapes and colors. There has yet been one day where I wear the same dress.

Those rags I wore when I was under captive aren't even worthy to be undergarments.

"Is it truly as magical as Julia claimed it to be?" I spoke as I sat up from my bed. The silk fabric rubbed upon my skin, giving me all types of comfort.

"Of course! Any and everyone who ever goes and returns ends up with-child or married!" Noda spoke as she sat beside me.

Is he doing this on purpose? Perhaps with the Noda and Julia having cubs, he may want one of his own!

I roll my eyes at Farrah's comment before turning back to Noda.
"I just hope it is as magical as you all claimed it to be" I spoke.
Noda gave me a smile before patting my hand which sat inches away from me.

There was silence between the two of us, the only sound that could be heard was the scuffling coming from the maid who seemed to be enjoying choosing the dresses I shall take with me to Riverton.

"Luna, Harold-"

"How is he?" I spoke. I should have known she was going to bring him up. After all, he is her mate. Hurting him, I probably hurt her the most.

"He's quite alright. He was very disappointed with himself about keeping that secret with you"

"As he should be" I spoke, crossing my arms over my chest. "He has information on my mother. I have always wanted to know my mother!"

"He only did it for your protection, Luna Isabella. How could anyone tell a person such a thing?"

"By just blurting it out." I spoke. "Just like how Eron blurted out he wishes to marry me"

"It is not that easy. Harold has a burden upon. He has every since he was a young cub. He witnessed the affairs his father had. Even with that he did not have the best relationship with his father. His father placed a knife to his throat and threatened if he was to tell a soul about the affairs, he would end him" Noda spoke.

"I had no idea" I spoke, feeling guilty for putting Harold through what I put him through.

"Harold didn't go through what you went through, but he had been through a lot of things. A lot which haunts him to this day"

Suddenly the bedroom roof opens and Eron peels his head in.

"Are you ready, love?" He ask me.

"I am just waiting for-"
Just as I spoke, out comes the maid dusting off her hands.

"Your trunks are packed, madam" She spoke as she curtsied.

"Thank you, you may be dismissed" I told her.

"I shall get two others to bring your belongings to the carriage your majesty" the maid spoke as she exits out of the bedroom.

"You have a wonderful time and do tell your parents I said hello" Noda spoke. She gives Eron a hug and to me as well.

"I will, you take care of my home" Eron told Noda as he grabbed my hand and escorted me out the castle.

Sitting in front of the castle was a carriage with four gray horses attached. They each were attached by golden buckles. I stared in awe at the horse, their manes properly brushed to the sides.

I could not help myself, as I walked to pat the horses.
Complementing then although they could not understand.

"You seem to like them" Eron spoke as he stood beside me.

"Indeed I do! Look at them" I spoke, placing a kiss upon one of the horse's snout.

"When we return, we will get you a personal one" Eron say to me as he placed a kissed upon my cheek.

I smiled, allowing him to escort me to the door of the carriage.

"You all have a safe trip!" A voice spoke as this servant opened the door for me.

I turn around to see Harold and Weston standing there, arms crossed as they watched us.

"Harold" I say before going into the carriage, I deeply apologize for lashing out on you! I hope you can forgive me"

"All is well, Luna" Harold replied back to me

We shared a small smile as I sat fully into the carriage, enjoying the luxurious red seats. Eron came in moments later, giving his Beta and Gamma one last look.

"Well, let us go" Eron spoke as he tapped at the door of the carriage.
During then, the carriage trotted away.

In the eyes of Harold
Harold's pov:
Weston and I stood stiffly, watching the carriage until we could no longer see it.

"Remember what the Alpha said. He want us to look for Mochief" Weston spoke as he and I strolled back to the entrance of the castle.

"I was intensely listening to what he was speaking. We must get the witch and she will help us"

The doors opened for me as I walk into the castle. Looking up at the balcony, Noda was leaning over the rails, rubbing her tummy. I cannot wait for our cub to be born.
I smile at Noda as she returned the smile back.

"Come on Harold, we have things to do" Weston suddenly spoke. I glance at Noda once more before following Weston into Alpha Eron's office.

Weston sat in the Alpha's chair as I sat in my regular seat.
Two maids stood near the door, waiting for me to tell them what to do.
I order one of them to give me a drink before turning to Weston.

"Alright, I just have gotten news that Mochief was caught in town talking to someone. They suspect it is Callicus" Weston spoke as he held a piece of paper.

"It cannot be him, Luna Isabella killed him" I told him as the maid came back with my drink. These maids work fast, something I truly enjoy when it comes to them.

"Dismissed" I say to the maids. In return, they curtsied and exited.

I sip my drink as Weston tapped his chin.

"Who was he speaking with then? This is not good. We cannot allow him to have any contact with anyone. I know for a fact he is plotting revenge once again"

I stayed quiet. Of course he would be plotting revenge. Our pack is not his favorite. We have done many cruel things to him. Now this may be his breaking point. Who knows when, but surely he will attack. And when he does, it will not be pretty.

"Harold" Weston spoke.

"I'm listening" I spoke as I took another sip of my drink.

"We have to attack him first before he attacks us" Weston spoke.

"Agreed, but we need confirmation with the alpha and he isn't going to be back until a couple of days" I spoke.

"Our Luna is in jeopardy Harold, I am sure the Alpha wouldn't care what we did to him, although that is." Weston began.
"It doesn't matter, we shall finish this once and for all"

I sigh "Weston this isn't-"

"Are you not up for this? Think of what Noda would say" Weston spoke.

I frown. Why is he using my mate to manipulate me?

"Fine. But do not bring my mate into this" I warn him.
Weston places his hand in a mock surrender.
"We take the witch and leave at night"
