Author's Note: Hey loves! I've decided to continue the book and finish it for y'all. So here's a new chapter for you guys :) Love you babes <3

Diana's POV

I wake up in the our bedroom and the house is deadly quiet.

'Not good, not good...' Gretchen comments.

I carefully roll to the side of the bed, all the time my senses on point of any sign of life. I'm about to step off the bed when I hear a crash downstairs and my heart leaps into my throat.

I know this, this is always how horror movies start. The girl goes downstairs, says "hello? Is anyone there?" and then something bad happens and she dies.

I play this in my head over and over again and soon my heart starts beating faster in my chest. I try to mind-link Pierce but he's out doing "business" according to the letter he wrote me. 

I pull on a long sweatshirt since I realize that Pierce undressed me when he put me in bed, I suddenly get self conscious.

I realize that eventually I must investigate what the crash was downstairs, so I look under the bed and find the cold mahogany box that Pierce showed me incase of an emergency. Inside was a shiny pistol, already loaded. He made me go through training, of course, before I could use it.

Slowly I creep to the door and twist the knob. It creaks as it turns and I cringe, how is it that everything is so much louder when I'm being robbed?

I hear a footstep downstairs and just about jump out my window. Why isn't anyone here? What's going on?

I don't shift to my wolf because I would destroy everything (the floors, mainly). I just stay in my human form with the pistol gripped in my quivering hand. The door creaks open and I see that the stairs are clear, so I slowly descend. My wolf is going crazy inside my head:

'Do you know how stupid you are right now? You don't know who's down there!'

'There's only one way to find out! And what if it's nothing?'

'Oh yeah, a vase just falls on its own. Yeah that happens!'

'You should be helping me right now Gretchen! I am a Luna and it is my job to protect my territory!'

She shuts up after that and focuses on the situation at hand. I slowly moved toward the bottom of the stairs and froze. I swear I just heard someone...

I was jumped on by what I assume was a man. He grunted and shoved his hands over my mouth. I started to panic as my breaths became shorter and I made a quick reflex by turning around and kicking him in the balls. He grunted and doubled over in pain as I caught my breath and aimed the pistol at him, ready to fire.

"Look, I don't want trouble here..." The mystery man said.

"Don't move. Don't take one step." I warned with my best deadly voice.

He looked at me and I saw in his eyes helplessness, and then anger.

He started to run towards me and I dropped the gun with slippery fingers.

Ohhhhh shoot...

I held out my hands and waited for the blow. But....there was none. Looking up, I put my hands over my mouth. The man was in a running position with his mouth open, still in a screaming expression. 

"Who am I?"
