Daniel

Protect pup! My wolf, Knox, kept yelling at me.

What? I asked him, confusion crossing my face. What are you talking about?

We must protect this pup, under any circumstances. He answers me.

Why? I ask him, clearly not understanding the need to protect one small child.

It's important, you must trust me. He tells me, clearly hiding his reasons.

Alright. I tell him to calm his agitated behavior over my hesitance to automatically agree with him.

" Alpha Daniel" a voice pulls me out of my daze. I move my eyes to Luna Cabbie.

"Gabbie" I greet her. Her fave and clothes are covered in dried blood. Mud plagued her skin as she clutched the child closer to her when she saw my immediate fascination with her. "Come in"

I hold the door for her as she hesitantly enters the house. Corbyn leads her deeper into the house and back to my office. I follow behind her, staring into the blue eyes of the little pip she held as the pup stared at me with the same fascination.

"Right in here" Corbyn says to her as he opens the door and waits for both of us to enter.

" please sit" I tell her. She immediately takes a seat, placing the child in her lap.

I came around the desk and sat in my chair as Corbyn took the seat next to her. Before either of us could say a word, the door opened again and my gamma, Jonah, entered.

He didn't take more than five steps in before he plastered a grimace on his face the second he saw me. Most tough he should be my beta. He was stronger and bigger than Corbyn, but his gentleness towards those in need made him a perfect Gamma. His job was to protect the Luna, But there was no longer a Luna to protect.

His dark hair covered his eyes, but I knew what they held. Anger.

Ever since I lost my mate, he has been different. They had been as close as siblings. He had been one if the first to step up in the hunt to find her. But after six months of searching, he came back changed. He was no longer the same man that left to find her. He refused to be in the same room as me for more that five minutes without making an exuse to leave. He seemed as angry with me over the loss of our Luna as I was. As I became darker and crueler, he became even angrier with me.

He closed the door silently and stood in the back of the room, holding his contempt with me in silence.

I drew my eyes away from him and back to the matter at hand. " can you tell us what happened?" I asked Gabbie, trying not to feel the sting of seeing her again.

She cleared her throat before answering. "We were attackt by rogues. Jack and I were at the pack house when the first warning signal sounded"

Her head dipped as she tried to hold back the tears that wanted to flow. " What happened next?"

"They came from everywhere. They were attacking everyone, not just the warriors. Women, children, they went after all of them" she said as a single tear escaped her eyes.

Before she could lift her hand, the little girl in her arms reached up to her cheek and caught the fallen tear. Gabbie gave her a small smile as she stared down at the little girl and whispered quietly. "Thank you"

The little girl just nodded slowly back to her and went back to staring around the room in wonder.

"Is this your daughter?" Corbyn asked her, trying to get her mind off of the attack for a second.
