Unknown’s P.O.V   I heard the link and when he suggested I take a bath, I was offended to the point that I growled. I wanted him, but I needed that b***h Cheyenne out of the way. Suddenly I heard branches snapping behind me and I turned around to face whoever it was. There was a man standing there, with red eyes and long dark hair, wearing a black coat.   “I know what you want, but I want her. If I change her then I'll be able to take over and we will be the most powerful couple, the couple that everyone is scared of. What do you say that we work together.” The man asked and I nodded.   “Well, if we’re going to work together then I'm going to need to know your name.” The man said and I looked at him again, hoping I was doing the right thing by trusting him, but f**k it if he gets that b***h then I get Mercury.   “The name is Holly and I was once his, but he threw me away after he was done. I want what's mine.” I replied and he smirked at me.   “And I want what's mine. I will have her.” The man replied, looking past me and towards the pack house.   Cheyenne’s P.O.V   As the night went on I started to dream again, but it soon turned into a nightmare. I was yet again running through the woods, running from something or someone, but before it caught up to me and I saw what it was, I woke up. Mercury was out cold next to me, sleeping peacefully with his arms wrapped around me. I carefully removed myself from Mercury’s hold and got out of bed, walking towards the double windows and opening them. I took in the cool night breeze and inhaled deeply, then let it out. I looked out of the window and to the vast woods in front of me. I shivered as I kept looking out, wondering what else was out there and seeing as the huge black wolf turned out to be Mercury, I wondered if the red eyed thing was also real. I heard Mercury stir and then wake up, he got out of bed and walked over to me, wrapping his arms around my waist and hugging me from behind.   “What's wrong, love?” Mercury asked, leaning his chin on my shoulder. I smiled and turned in his arms, facing him and wrapping my arms around his neck.   “I had that dream again, the one where something is chasing me out in the woods, it was dark, but before anything happened I woke up. I was hot when I woke up, so I opened the window and the breeze felt good against my skin, so I stood here and was looking out at the forest. I wonder what else is out there?” I replied, looking back out of the window. Mercury turned us so that we could both look out and feel the breeze, holding me closer to him.   “There are many things out there, rogue’s, rogue vampires, were-bears, were-cats and maybe even were-lions and were-tigers. I have even heard that there are mermaids, but we would have to go to the lake to find out. I hear that there are a few left, but hunters like to kill them for their tails. We also have witches and fairies. When you were human your parents probably read you bedtime stories, well what they didn't know was that half of them were true.” Mercury said and it made me wonder which ones.   “Mercury….” I said, snuggling into his chest.   “Yes love.” Mercury replied, kissing the top of my head.   “You said that this is a Mafia pack, right?” I asked and he nodded his head.   “Yes, that's right.” Mercury replied, curiously.   “Okay, well I was wondering have you ever named your pack or does it even have a name? I mean I've heard of human gangs, naming their gangs and everything, but do wolf packs do the same? Do wolf packs have names for their packs?” I asked, looking back up at him to see him smiling.   “Yeah, I named this pack when I first formed it many, many years ago. It’s called the Blood Moon Mafia. I thought it was a fitting name since well we are the Mafia and we do shed blood from time to time, so the name suited us well.” Mercury said, chuckling.   “I like the name, but are there other Mahia packs around?” I asked, still curious. I think the more answers I got the more questions I had.   “Yeah, there are many others. There's the Vampire Mafia and some rogue’s formed together and call themselves Mafia. The Vampire Mafia are vicious, they will drain you without question and take what they want, just like I do. They stay within their own territory because they dont want war, but I know it's coming, I can feel it and we will be ready. The rogue’s tend to be sneaky, they sneak inside a pack's territory and kill as many as they can, that's why we have trackers and hunters for them. We kill them off one at a time before they have the chance to kill us. If you look to the far north of our border you will see there is a worse pack out there, they are worse than the vampires and they are called The Silver Moon Mafia Pack. they will go to war over anything and that reminds me, the Alpha of that pack is coming here tomorrow. They want to talk about territory and his Luna will be coming with him, so I'll want and need you by my side.” Mercury said and I nodded.   “Will she try anything? If she does then what am i supposed to do or rather what am i allowed to do?” I asked, but Mercury smirked at me.   “This is our territory and if they disrespect us then they won't be looking pretty. I expect you to do what you do best and smash her f*****g head into the floor.” Mercury said and now it was my turn to smirk.   “If she screws up you know I'll do my thing. Come on, let's get some sleep. We have a long day tomorrow and we are going to need our rest.” I said, pulling him back over to the bed. We got back into bed and Mercury pulled me into his hold, he quickly fell asleep, but I couldn't just yet. I kept thinking about tomorrow and how it was going to go, how am I going to be a Mafia Queen? Will I be any good at it? I guess I will find out tomorrow, I thought to myself as sleep finally took hold of me.   Trevor’s P.O.V   I had been outside for hours, trying to find the scent that was so familiar to me, I knew that scent and had smelt it before Mercury had sent her off on a mission. I already knew that she was my mate, but thing is will she know? I smelt her scent getting stronger, she was getting closer and when I looked towards the clearing there she was. Goldie. She was beautiful and even though I had never wanted a mate before because of all the drama that came with them, Goldie wasn't like that. Goldie hated drama as much as I did and as she got closer to me I could tell that she hadn't long shifted. Her eyes were glowing in the dark, her smile lit up her face and it was like she already knew.   “MINE!” I said, growling loudly at her, calling her to me.   Goldie’s P.O.V   Doing my first shift alone wasn't easy and it definitely wasn't how I wanted it to go either. I was coming back from doing business with another pack, when suddenly I felt the burning heat, quickly followed by pain and I knew exactly what was happening, I was shifting. Luckily for me I was in a part of the woods where no rogue’s or vampires ever came, otherwise it would have been a whole other situation all together. Once the searing pain had subsided I was on four paws and started walking, looking for the small stream I knew was nearby. I found it and leaned forward, looking at my reflection in the water. I was a beautiful brown wolf.   “Hey Goldie, I’m Lita. I'm your wolf.” Lita said inside my head. Her voice was really soothing and I was so happy to meet her.   “Hi Lita, thanks for helping me shift. I just wish the others were here for you to meet.” I replied and she just started giggling in my head.    “It's okay, I'll meet them soon enough. At least we have each other now, that's the main thing, well, that and finding our mate.” Lita said, making me feel better. We decided that it was a good idea to stretch our legs and run all the way back to the territory in our wolf form. I got all the way back to a clearing near the pack house and found a pair of shorts and a shirt in the nearby trees. There were clothes littered all over the territory, just in case one of us had to shift back we wouldn't have to walk around naked. I put them on and started walking back to the house when I smelled this strange and beautiful scent of fresh cut grass. I knew exactly what it meant, I had heard the other she-wolves talking about it and knew that my mate was close by. I saw him just standing outside the house and I knew it was him, he was my mate, but would he want me. We had talked about the mate bond before and I knew that Trevor didn't want a mate, but what did that mean for me? Would he reject me as soon as he knew? I guess I will find out soon enough. I got closer and closer to Trevor and the scent got stronger, when he turned around and faced me. His eyes were glowing in the dark and I watched him step forward, but I was waiting for it. I was waiting for him to say those horrible fateful words, but instead he growled.   “MINE!” Trevor said, growling and it was music to my ears. I walked closer and stood in the light, smiling from ear to ear.   “MINE!” I said, growling back and he too started smiling.   “So, does this mean that we are mates and that you accept me?” I asked, fearful of his reply. Even though he had said mine it still didn't mean that he had accepted me and he could still reject me.   “Yes, on both counts, but there is so much I have to tell you. A lot has happened since you've been gone, remember our feisty Luna?” Trevor said, making my heart beat faster and my wolf jump for joy inside my head.   “Yeah i remember, she's got a strong and mean right hook.” I replied, remembering the first and last time I met Cheyenne. I sat down on the porch and Trevor sat next to me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. Trevor told me everything that had happened since I had been away, everything from Cheyenne saving Alpha Mercury to Cheyenne shifting and revealing that she was a Luna Alpha. I got caught up and my mouth grew wider with everything that Trevor was telling me.   “You mean she's an Alpha as well? Our Alpha’s are going to be powerful, the most powerful couple ever. Do….do you think she will hold a grudge against me? Mercury told me to piss her off just to see how strong she really was.” I asked, but Trevor just smirked and held me closer.   “Only tomorrow will we be able to tell. I'm sure she will be fine, just remember that she’s an Alpha along with our boss and she has some meanness in her.” Trevor said, making me laugh. Trevor stood to his feet and held his hand out for me, I took it and he helped me up, walking me inside the house.   “You can move into my room tomorrow afternoon, we have company tomorrow morning and we need to be there.” Trevor said and I nodded as we walked to his room.   “Nice room, you still keep it tidy since the last time I was here.” I said, as Trevor opened his bedroom door.   “You're the only one that has been in this room.” Trevor replied, making me laugh as we walked into his room.   “I better be.” I said as I walked in front of him and he grabbed my hand, turning me around and pulling me into his embrace. He wrapped his one hand around my waist while the other grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me forward, crashing his lips into mine, as we fell on the bed kissing.
