Royal Luna

Chapter 7

<Lakota>

When that wolf slapped Rose, I tensed and was on edge and I saw that a few of the warriors growled at the wolf along with me. Even though she was hear only for a few days many of the wolves like her; I noticed that Rose started chuckling and I was confused about what she found funny. She jumped into the story of her life; I was shocked that all of this happened to her and wished this hadn’t happened to her. I looked towards the pups as they moved closer to Rose, I smiled that even at a young age they still clung to their mom like they did when they were pups. Rose finally ended her story but before the wolf that slapped her could say anything clapping broke the silent atmosphere. Everyone turned to the wolf who was clapping to see a man in his forties standing at the edge of the clearing, “A very touching story Rozen I guess I’m going to have to kill you faster.”

I growled at this man and moved in front of Rose, “I see that my men were telling the truth when they told me that little Rozen had found her mate, and didn’t bless my son with one but two pups.”

I growled louder at this man, Rose had mentioned that the father of the pups was a man that she thought would never hurt her and that would always be her friend. This man allowed his own flesh and blood rape a woman and then leave her to die. Before I could lunge at this man and rip his throat out, I felt Rose grip my shirt. I turned to look at her to see her shaking in fear of this man and mumbling to herself; I glanced at the pups to see them hiding completely behind their mother crying their eyes out in fear.

<Rose>

I was shaking in both fear and anger that this man had the nerve of this man to talk to me like we were old friend and scared because I know what he’s capable of if Lakota attacks him. “Little Rose I have someone that you might want to meet.”

I looked to see a boy being dragged from the woods along with a few other wolves. This boy had long dirty black hair, green eyes to match my own, he was skinny and had cuts and burns on his body but I would know this boy anywhere. Even after seven years he hasn’t changed much, before anyone could act I was in front of the wolves holding the boy, I pushed them away from the boy and snapping the silver chain from him before appearing beside Lakota again. I looked into the eyes of my brother, “Matthew can you hear me, say something.”

Matthew looked at me before he nodded, I smiled at my brother before turning towards Nathanial. I saw that while I had moved away from my pups he had somehow grabbed Mia, I slowly climbed to my feet as Mia cried. All the wolves around me slowly moved from my sight, my wolf was in more control at the moment; and again before anyone could see me I slammed into Nathanial, all my fear gone and replaced with anger at this man for harming one of my pups. The battle last five minutes before I was able to stab Nathanial in the arm making him drop Mia but it came with the price of receiving a head wound from him. He pulled away and started leaving with his pack, “We will attack you in five days’ time; anyone not sided with us will die.”

I growled at the man before heading to my pups, mate and brother; I first went to my pups and clutched them to me. I felt Lakota touch my head near the wound, and growled when I winced but stopped when he saw he scared Mia. Lakota scoped her up and held her close then picked Michel up as I rose to my feet and went to my brother. The doctor was already over there looking him over, “These wounds will take a total of a year to completely heal with faint scares.”

Matthew turned towards me as the doctor spoke and then when he was finished speaking he spoke to me, “What would you Rosie 4-6 months?”

I smirked at him as the doctor glared, “It will take longer than that to heal.”

I chimed in to only be glared at as well, “Depends when was your last shift, because if you let your wolf out it might speed the process but you need a haircut first.”
