I woke up to an empty bed - it was 6am! Xander must have been training or something must have came up.

"Good morning. ", he chirped.

He was beside the door with a cup of coffee and his sweaty gym clothes.

He's muscles were so prominent.
"You're up early. ", I croaked and got up.

"I'm getting ahead of the day. ", he smiled.

"You're in a good mood. ", I smiled and went to brush my teeth.

I heard some shuffling in the bedroom.

"Today is a good day, I can feel it. ", he said merrily.

We're opposites. I'm not a morning person and he's a ray of sunshine in the morning.

I put my hair into a high bun and walked out the bathroom.

He gave me a goofy smile and stared at me. I raised an eyebrow and smiled. He was up to something.

"What? ", I asked as he looked at me.

"Nothing, I can just picture us doing this for the rest of our lives. ", he said with so much of adoration and thought.

"This? ", he stepped towards me and wrapped his arms around my waist and brought my head to his chest.

"You getting ready for your day and me watching you... You're perfect. ", he kissed my forehead and I felt tingles.

I couldn't help but smile.

He gave me a goofy smile again. What is he up to?

"You're sweaty. ", I pulled his cheek and walked away.

He caught my hand and spun me towards him.

I looked at him and he gave me a mischievous smirk.

"Don't you even think about it, Mr! ", I knew what he was up to.

He pulled me towards him and rubbed his sweaty body on me.

"Noooo! ", I cried out and laughed.

"Now you smell, too. ", he laughed.

I put my hands on my hips and raised my eyebrow.

"That was so uncalled for. ", I playfully hit his chest.

"Come shower with me. ", It was more of a command than a question. He walked into the shower and I followed behind.
-------

I kept smiling the entire day and remembered what he said this morning - I can just picture us doing this for the rest of our lives.

I bit my lower lip as I was deep in thought. I love him so much and I couldn't imagine my life without him. He's an idiot but he's my idiot. I now have no doubt in my mind that everything happens for a reason, every Single thing - the good and bad because it gets you where you're supposed to be.

Rogues captured wandering the border! - The pack mind-link interrupted my thoughts.

First breachers, now rogues? - Grace said worriedly.

Let's go check it out! - I said.

I got out of my office and went walked towards the rogue scent that lingered towards the holding cells.

This scent was sort of familiar.

Four guards were escorting a rogue passed me.

"Bryson!", A rouge I've met during my travels. He took me into his clan for a while before I had to move...I moved a lot because of the fear of Jacob finding me.

He was one of the good rogues - like me... he was born a rogue.

He was much taller than me, a little taller than Xander. He had Brown hair and brown eyes.

"Rebecca! ", he shouted.

"Wait! ", I used my Luna voice on he guards and they stopped walking.

"What happened? ", I asked.

"Leena and I were around the area and we were minding our own business when a few wolves began chasing us. We had no where to run so we took refuge on the outskirts of this pack - we weren't even a metre inside. It wasn't our fault. You know me Rebecca- I wouldn't hurt a fly! I pushed Leena out of the pack and she ran. She's safe but worried about me. ", he said with worry. He was telling the truth. He would never hurt anyone.

Leena was his girlfriend. They weren't mates but they loved each other a lot.

"I'll fix this. ", I said.

He sensed my rank and dropped to his knees and bowed.

I acknowledged him and he stood up.

"As much as I love reunions, He's a rogue who was trespassing... it's punishable by death you know.", Kiara popped out of the passageway.

"He's innocent. It wasn't even his fault. ", I said.

"Luna, a rogue wandering around pack borders is alarming. We have no proof of his intentions. After all he is a rouge - he can not be trusted. "

"I was a rogue too - I happen to know this wolf. He is harmless."

"Was - Luna, "she corrected, " you were a rogue, now you are the royal Luna - You have a code to follow. "

"He is innocent! that's all that matters right now. We can not kill him because he was defending himself against the horrors that packs are protected from. You forget that I stumbled into this pack by tresspasing as well - ", I was interrupted by Xander who over heard the commotion.

"What's going on? ", he used his alpha voice and Bryson, the guard's and kiara kneeld.

"This rogue was trespassing bear the borders, Luna Rebecca happens to know him. She deems it fit to set him free as she had encountered him in her past. She claims that he is innocent. I told her about the death penalty but she refuses to follow the codes. ", Kiara spoke with authority.

Xander was stern and serious. He was so unlike himself. This was his alpha instincts on show.

"I did not refuse- I simply believe that killing in the name of justice is not justice - it's a vendetta. How can two wrongs make a right? Just because he is a rogue does now mean that we must consort to extreme measures out of the feeling of hatred of rogues and mistake it for justice. "

Kiara and I watched Xander for his response, carefully. He was the tie-breaker.
