Andromeda's POV:

Crawling out from under the large wolf caused me to grunt, my face and shoulder ached as i stood up, Maia dived twords me concern on her face "oh goddess Andi are you okay!?" i nodded my head pushing her back into the group, this wasn't over yet, someone had shot all of them.

I pressed my body low to the ground flashing my bloody teeth as a rustle came from in front of us, my eyes scanning for the threat as a man stepped out of the bushes.

He was as tall like my father, well built with salt and pepper hair that he had tied back behind his head, he let out a grunt as he swung a long black sniper rifle over his shoulder one hand rubbing his greying stubble along his chin, "Well i did not expect to find this while on vacation"

I growled lowly at the man which just caused him to laugh gruffly "calm down little Alpha pup, i wont hurt you or your friends here" he took a few steps forward ignoring the dead bodies, "we need to go, i have a cabin not far from here, get you guys some food and see to your wounds"

The man bent over the shine of silver tags around his neck caught my eye as the dangled, what where they and who was this guy...

I looked over at everyone as he spoke again "just at least come eat, if you don't trust me y'all can leave after and i wont stop ya"

"I think he is safe for now, he wont kill us Andromeda we should go with him" that voice spoke again in my head and i finally realized who it was, my wolf.

"What's your name" i whispered back at her, "Ari" was the last thing she said before retreating to the back of my mind again.

I nodded at William, Max, and Maia as the man started to walk away from us, slowly i followed behind him inhaling and memorizing his scent, confusion swept through me when i smelt the wolf side of him, was he rogue, he didn't smell like one.

It didn't matter if he was a threat to us i would do everything i could to protect them, the last of my pack.

We broke through another tree line, a small log cabin sat in the middle of the field, was this the place he lived?

Without looking back at us he pushed the door open walking in, i stopped curious to know what he was doing, Max and William stood on both sides of me while we waited outside.

A few minutes later he came out with a large t-shirt "sorry pup this is all i have for you to change into" he tossed the shirt in my direction and i caught it, trotting over to the trees i shifted, hissing as the pain from my shoulder increased, i could feel the shallower end of the wound closing along my face thanks to wolf healing.

I put the shirt on my right side staining with blood from my wound as i moved back twords my pack, head held high i looked the man in the eyes "sorry about your shirt, but who are you?"

He smiled down at me from the porch "come inside i will tell you while we eat, i still have some deer meat i cooked last night" he turned waving us in behind him.

"Ok guys, don't let your guard down just yet" i whispered following the man inside.

The cabin was strange, guns lined the wall on display, but it felt welcoming soft carpet brushed under my bare feat as i walked over to the small table and sat town, the others spread out about the living room quietly watching.

"My name is Luke Abernathy, this is my vacation cabin, your luck i was here when i was" he spoke as he moved about the kitchen the smell of meat filling the area as he walked over to the table with a box of medical supplies.

"Im going to clean your wound, the part on your face has healed, lucky it was shallow enough to not scar, your right shoulder might be a different story, the food is being heated, it should be done after i disinfect that for ya ok pup" he sat down next to me using a knife to cut the bloody fabric from my shoulder so he could get a batter look.

I knew to keep silent and let him do it, out of kindness or trickery i was not sure but i wouldn't last long if my shoulder didn't heal right, that would mean i couldn't protect them, "Thank you for this Mr.Abernathy, once we eat we will go, so we wont burden you any further"

He sprayed and wiped away at my wound "Ah call me Luke pup, no worries y'all are not a burden, but if you wouldn't mind telling me what happened i think that would help"

I didn't have to say a word, instead Max spoke for me "our pack was attacked everyone else is dead, they died making sure we got away" Luke nodded his head.

"I see, not to be rude but you wont make it out there, lone wolfs are dangerous enough, never mind rogues, you are all to young without enough training, plus that little one needs proper care" he motioned twords brie and Ellie with his free hand.

"I have to try, im their Alpha now" i spoke up without hesitation, hissing a bit as he stuck a needle in my shoulder stitching away.

"Girl what are you twelve?, that's the youngest I've seen anyone shift in a long time, im guessing your wolf took over the moment your parents passed knowing she had people to protect, your strong and will have great power as you get older but not without proper training, plus if i let you go others will track you, those wolves were not lone or rouges, that means some bad shit went down, what pack are you from anyhow?" he cut the string as he finished up setting his supplies down he wrapped my shoulder in bandages, then started to clean up the medical supplies.

"Well Luke i guess telling you my name would only be fair" he chuckled at the comment walking back into the kitchen to get the food for us, he came out a moment later with a stack of paper plates and napkins as well as a tray of deer steaks and rolls, inhaling the scent of food i finally said it "my names Andromeda Artem, of the Artem pack"

"What!?" he yelled out slamming the food on the table as a furious look crossed his face, eyes glowing silver as he growled, only one word crossed my mind in that moment...shit.
