The Moon Goddess' Children

Chapter 9. Silver Chains

Eliza, Kaden and Alexander were sleeping peacefully when Rence entered their room. Rence stood in the triplets' room and looked at them sleeping. They had everything they could have wanted in the human world, life was perfect there and then they had to come here. He almost felt sorry for them. Key word, almost. He looked over to Eliza.

'She's actually kinda cute when she's sleeping.' He thought. 'Now for the fun part.'

"WAKE UP MUTTS!" He yelled startling the triplets awake.

"Rence what the heck man!" Alexander shouted rubbing his aching head.

"Breakfast ends in thirty minutes, if you don't get there on time, you don't eat." He said as he turned to leave.

"Wait! We don't have any clothes." Eliza said.

"I have arranged for clothes to be a be brought to you. You will be taken shopping later on today." Rence said before leaving.

"What pissed in his cornflakes?" Kaden asked.

"I know. He's cold." Alexander said.

"Don't let his grumpy butt, ruin our morning. I call dibs on using the shower first." Eliza said as she ran towards the bathroom. Clothes were brought to them by an omega; and the three of them took turns showering and getting dressed. As soon as Alexander came out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door.

"Is anyone expecting someone?" Alexander asked. Eliza and Kaden shook their head equally confused. Kaden opened the door to see a girl about 5'2 with jet black hair, cream colored skin, and forest green eyes. She was very pretty.

"Oh! You three must be the new people that Alpha Blake was talking about." She smiled as she entered the room. "I can't wait to do all the fun things I've planned."

"You can't just enter someone's room without permission. Didn't anyone teach you manners! I swear I think your adopted." A guy said as he followed in after her. He had the same eyes color but his hair was dirty blond and he towered over her. He placed his arm on top of her head. She frowned.

"I'm sorry about her, she gets too excited. I'm Luke and this is my little sister, Allie." Allie shoved her brother's arm away and playfully glared at him. Now the triplets were really confused. Alpha Blake and Rence were so cold but, Luke and Allie seem like really kind people.

'What is up with this pack?' Eliza linked to her brothers.

'I have no idea.' Kaden responded.

"We are here to escort you to breakfast." Allie said as she grabbed Eliza's hand. "So come on, before we're late."

'Are you sure it's too late to go home.' Alexander linked to his siblings causing them to chuckle. Luke and Allie led the triplets to the dinning hall; they were still lots of people there and among them was Isabel and April. As soon as they made eye contact with Eliza they instantly felt bad. They have been lying for the best friend for so long, that it soon became natural; but as soon as they saw her face all the guilt came rushing back to them. As soon as Eliza saw that she frowned and turned her head, she never wanted to speak to them again.

"There is a whole breakfast buffet. Eat whatever you like!" Allie said and the triplets didn't hesitate to chow down.  After they stacked their plates, the buffet cart was rolled away.

*****************

"And this is the garden, and directly across from the garden is the forest which is where the pack goes for runs." Allie said. Allie and Luke were given the honor to show the triplets around.

"Where's Rence? I thought he was the one who suppose to be showing us around." Alexander asked.

"Ugh, his exact words were 'You two, show the new mutts around, I don't have time to babysit a bunch of stupid weaklings.'" Luke said. This caused Alexander's and Kaden's wolf to get angry but it made Eliza's wolf sad.

'He thinks we're stupid.' she whimpered.

'Who cares what he thinks, I don't.' she said. Crystal retreated to the back corner of Eliza's mind.

" And this is the training grounds. We have training everyday except for the Sundays. Sometimes we get Saturday off if Rence is feeling generous, we usually train from 3-5pm." Allie said. As she led the to the training field.

"I think they are training now." Luke said. In the distance were two girl sparing, Rence stood and watched as the two fought.

"Can we watch?" Kaden asked.

"Sure." Allie said. As they moved closer, they got a better look at the two girls. The girl on the left stood in a sloopy stance and she had several bruises on her face, which was contorted with pain. The girl on the right stood in a solid stance with barely any cuts on her at all.

"Shift!" Rence commanded. The girls both shifted into the their wolves. The girl on left wolf was a sandy color, and the girl on the right was a ash gray color.

"Begin!" The gray wolf charge at the sandy one. The sandy wolf quickly evaded the attack but the gray on spun around and jumped on it's back and ripped a large chuck of it's ear off. It whimpered in pain and bucked the wolf off it. The gray wolf shook itself off and tackled the sandy wolf, pinning. The gray wolf turned gripped the sandy wolf's neck tightly and the sandy wolf turned its neck up in submission. The wolf gripped tighter, its teeth ripping into the flesh of the sandy wolf making its blood soak its fur.

"You're killing her!" Eliza shouted, as she rushed towards them.

"Eliza, wait!" Rowan shouted. The rest of the grouped followed after her. Eliza shifted into Crystal and clawed the gray wolf in the back. It let go of the sandy wolf and turned towards Eliza. The gray wolf let out a murderous growl before charging at Eliza.

"That's enough!" Rence commanded, making the gray wolf stop. "Both of you, shift back. Now!" Both girls shifted back. Rence turned to the sandy wolf.

"Shift back to, Addelyn. Your done for the day." She instantly shifted back. "You two!" He said pointing at Luke and Allie. "Help her to the infirmary." 

"But Beta-"

"That wasn't a request, it was an order. Now go!" He said. They hung their head.

"Yes sir." They said as they went to aid Addelyn.

"Beta, I have business to settle her." The girl said staring daggers at Eliza. "Even if she is new she needs to learn not to cross me." Kaden and Alexander growled at her. If anyone wanted to hurt their sister would have to go through them.

"I'll handle it Valerie, you are dismissed."

"With all due respect Beta, I-"

"I said, you are dismissed, so leave before I take back my generous offer."  Valerie huffed and turned towards Eliza.

"You better watch your back, mutt." She whispered before leaving. 

"You two may leave, I have no business with you." He said.

"Pfft, as if we would leave our sister with the likes of you." Alexander said.

"I don't know who you think we are but we are not going to listen to you." Rence growled lowly trying to keep his cool.

"I'm giving you one last chance, LEAVE!"

"NO! You better watch your tone, punk." Kaden said as he shoved Rence. Rence's eyes turned black as he grabbed all three of them and drug them towards the dungeons.

No matter how hard they squirmed and how loud they protested, Rence wouldn't let them go. He opened the silver door to the cell and tossed them inside. There heads slammed against the brick walls making their vision a little blurry.

Rence chained silver chains to their arms and ankles.

"I'm sure after spending a couple of days in here, you runts will know your place." He said as he closed the silver door, burn marks visible all on his hands and arms.

"Wait come back." Eliza said as everything went dark.

'Trust me, you pups have it easy.' Rence thought as he jogged out of the dungeon and headed to the training grounds.
