Asu P.O.V
I awoke to find Harry holding onto my hand " Harry?" his eyes snapped to mine relief washed over his expression crushing me into a tight hug.
"Asu" he breathed in my sent trying to calm himself.
" I am alright love, is okay" I rubbed his back.
" Asu, what happen to you?" he pulled away to face me
" I ..." I looked down" really don't know," he frowned at my answer when everyone burst into the room he pulled me behind his back relaxing his muscles when he saw who it was
"ASU!" Diego came rushing to my side " Little sis that was quiet a scared you gave us"
"Honey" Dad was on the verge of tears.
"Do you feel better?" Kim asked pulling me away from Harry to examine me.
"Yes, I was telling Harry that I don't know what happened a memory came to mind" from the corner of my eyes I saw dad and Diego going rigid.
"what was the memory about?" Kim questioned but her eyes were not on me but Diego's stiffen figure
" it was a blur nothing much but the heart-wrenching pain made me lose conscience it was as if my heart was been torn apart" I shudder at the memory and Harry placed his hand around my waist giving me a reassuring smile " Celene couldn't help either she was as lost as I was"
there was silence until someone unexpected knock on the door Harry's hold tighten he didn't look pleased.
" Is okay Harry" Anna stepped towards with Jason on her side? " Mathew said it was okay, he was cleared of everything he will not harm her"
I didn't have time to be surprised at how Anna had called my dad by name I needed to calm harry down before he went all alpha on me " Harry I want to seat now"
his eyes cleared from any displeasure and help me down "careful angel"
"You're so whipped" Jason teased him but a growl from Harry shut him up, Anna sighed
" it seems like dad already spoke to you" he nodded " I won't ask what you meant because quite frankly all three will only play mind games with me" with that said dad and brother avoided my gaze " since dad has cleared you then welcome"
he smiled and bowed " thank you, your highness,"
"Come I'll show you where your pack will be staying at" dad basically dragged him out I watched in confusion his actions.
Kim burst out laughing and quickly composed herself "since you are okay and your mate is here I'll go and prepare some food for you" Kim chimed and ran off but not before saying " Ah! and no naughty stuff!"
I blushed deep scarlet, while the rest laughed it off
" for now" he whispered rubbing his nose on my cheek making me shiver " but for now I have to go and take care of perimeter with your brother"
I raised my eyebrow " for?"
"This is going to be good" Anna smiled.
" Now I know you are going to say you are perfectly capable of protecting yourself but I can't help but worry about your safety I won't let that happen again not on my watch" he crossed his arms
and he was damn right I will " I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself thank you very much" I stated as a matter of fact ignoring his piercing begging gaze.
" And I saw that love, but is just for precaution we can't let any rogues enter the pack either, you are my queen and soon enough everyone will know, once it gets out attacks won't cease" he spoke sternly
" So what? Kim and Anna are here as well not because I am your mate means I am weak Harry" I got up " plus I am sure that they would do a better job at keeping me safer"
"Asu, I won't take no for answer whether you like it or not we will strengthen the perimeter" He was serious
" You couldn't keep quiet" Anna sighed and shook her head
I shot her a glare " I thought both of you understood that"
" sis, sorry but I am with Harry on this one we can't let any of you come in contact with danger and besides is not only your safety but the packs as well" Diego patted my head " I also can't let my luna be in danger again "
"Now be good and stay here until I come" Harry kissed my forehead " Jason come"
"You two Liam and Will"
"Wait you two as well?!" I accused angrily
" Sorry, but they are right" Will shrugged and bolted off
"WILL?!" I yelled and Liam quickly followed him I growled annoyed
" They won't listen " I could hear Anna's anger behind her words " believe me"
"Beleive me this isn't over" I walked to the window and saw them running at full speed when Harry turn and winked at me " that boy," I was not going to lie he was sexy ass hell " Since when did you start calling my dad by name?"
She blushed a light pink " since you've been sleeping we were trying to ask the other alpha about what he meant and he asked both Kim and me to call him by his name that even though I may be mated to the royal Beta I was still Kim' sister and your best friend"
I laughed feeling a lot lighter than before funny how it took a major pain to bring me back to normal " So what's up with dad dragging him off and Harry been you know"
she smirked something was amusing her " oh that" she crossed her feet " your dad isn't happy that his sons seemed to have taken a liking to you and wanting to be close to you didn't put Harry the big bad alpha in a pleasurable mood either"
I laughed apparently what I told dad just poof into thin air, "I specially told them it was normal for other wolves to feel like they need to stick close to me I get Harry because he's still in the dark but Dad really"
she shrugged enjoying all of this, " Wipe that smirk off your face dear Anna, or-" I didn't have to finish my threat when I saw her changing it. I turn my attention to the window and noticed that it was daylight now the pack was up and in full swing but my eyes lingered to the forest mostly towards where Harry disappear to already longing for him.
" I never knew I could see you like this" Anna spoke bringing me back from my thoughts
"see me how?" turned to her tilting my head to the side
she smiled widely " so in love with your mate you're longing for him already"
I laughed " Aren't you the same, " she smiled widely and nodded " to be honest neither did I, I never thought it will change me in any way, when I am with Harry I feel safe and loved, it's like he has awoken all my inner desires"
she laughed " it's the same with Jason he is very sweet and attentive and just everything about him makes me go mad I think I understand now why Kim and Diego can't keep their paws off each other but his overprotectiveness is quiet.."
"Ugh, don't even get me started on that" I flop down on a chair " I feel like with Harry it will be worse"
she laughed " true" her eyes glazed over, " Kim asked if you want to eat here or downstairs "
" downstairs, I'll meet you there I have to wash my face" she nodded leaving me to indulge in Harry's scent wildly looming in my room.
" you do realize he will be treating us like a glass doll right?" Celene groan
I mentally rolled my eyes " I'll show him what kind of glass doll I am" she snickered before walking out the door I heard shuffling and the faint scent I knew it was Vanessa, seem like George already spoke to her I smirked, as I open the door and closed it walking slowly awaiting for her ambush and right on cue before I could take a step down the stairs she yanked my arm spinning around coming face to face with a very furious Vanessa if looks could kill this would be one of them.
" You b***h!" she snarled, " Geroge already knows! he threw me out and all of this is your damn fault!"
" Excuse me" I played innocently " weren't you already thrown out?"
" don't come with that s**t you little b***h I know damn well that you were the one who told him about this pup if it weren't for you then how could he have known!"
I chuckled " maybe because he isn't as dumb as you think"
she growled " if only you didn't exist! if only you never came back things would have been different!" she yelled hysterically " Don't let it get to your head George is MINE! he only wants you right now because you look different he is only after your p***y after he is done you will be yesterday's news!!"
I crossed my arms and saw her move forward a little I knew the foot of the stairs was close and her intentions were clear as day" is that really all you can say? do you really think that it will hurt me? come up with some better material"
" you act though only because you have the prince wrapped around your finger you slut" she smirked" or maybe you gave him something else to have such favoritism I am sure if another she-wolve came along and gave him something better he wouldn't even remember being with you!'
" Careful Vanessa" I warned her
" is that who I think it is?" Kim snarled
" shall we come and help?" Anna volunteer eagerly
"No is fine " let's see if you pass
"A...alright"
My silence only made her assumed she was right " what? oh so it's true you did" she laughed " your brother and dad still think their little princess is a saint you gave me a lecture and called me a hoe when you are doing the same! you HYPOCRITE!, to think that the pack has been saying stupid things recently praising you wherever you walked as if you are some sort of god while I been treated like s**t but once I tell them how you are slutting around with the prince that will change and who knows maybe after you I could go next a crown will fit me quite well don't you think?"
My body began to shake fighting back my anger as much as I could but her words made it worse I slapped her hard causing her to stumble back.
" You slapped ME!!" she yelled, " HOW DARE YOU f*****g SLAP!!"
" I warned you to stop that filthy mouth or yours but you decided to ignore, keep Harry's name out of that dirty mouth of yours not everyone is like you if you are angry that I told him well there is nothing you can really do is there? you should've known better than to open your damn legs for every guy out there, placing the blame on me for your stupid mistakes is ridiculous " I grabbed her by the hand she let out a whimper " but what for when all they wanted was to relieve themselves and what better than with you? is true you are beautiful but nothing more your heart is rotten and not to mention your mind do you really think anyone would want you with that kind of personality you have, from all of those you slept with how many of them took you seriously?"
her eyes went wide and tears began to run down her cheeks but her fury wasn't gone if anything it was more fired up than before.
" Sure it isn't bad sleeping around with how many you wished but the problem here is that you have no values who will want a woman who has no values and no self-respect?" I let go of her "you are just one more slut to them, many of who already have their own mates and loving family while you" I looked down on her and saw her hand clenched.
"shut up" she voiced out
" have nothing, you who wanted to climb the ranks and try sleeping with my brother and even after been insulted you never changed you went ahead and slept with George to at least get the beta female position but what was low even for you was to use a child for your personal gains," I was feeling sorry for her at this point in her quest to be big she lost her way.
"Shut up" she repeated as more tears rolled down her eyes " you don't know anything how hard it is to just be a warriors daughter"
" so what? Do you think positions measure your value? I am the daughter of alpha yet that didn't stop George from rejecting me or you from bullying me did it? I am sorry a warrior's daughter is honorable as well they are in charge of the pack's safety and well-being they give their lives up for the rest of the pack what the hell is wrong with you?! you never went through hunger or needed clothing nothing was denied for any of you!"
her cries intensified my words hit her with full force but she never looked up. Pass this test, Vanessa.
" wait for your punishment in your home your father is already aware of it so just stay put, I pity you, Vanessa, I really do it hurts me from the bottom of my heart to see one of my kind go this low I wished you could've changed not for yourself but for the innocent pup you are carrying"
" SHUT UP! I SAID SHUT UP!" She jolted up pushing me backward with all her strength I lost my balance bracing for the impact but I was quickly embraced and the familiar sparks ran through my body shielding me, there was a loud THUD as we stumble down.
"ASU!"
"HARRY!"
Harry? he loosens his hold, scared I quickly look at him " Harry! Love!" I panicked and saw his blue ocean eyes filled with horror as he jolted up examing me as I did the same
"thank the goddess" we both let out.
" Harry are you okay?" I look over to his bruised shoulder " your shoulder!"
" I am fine, now that I made sure you are okay, I am perfect is just a bruise" he caressed my face I let out a sigh of relief his eyes darken and growled looking in the direction of the stairs
" How dare you try to harm my MATE!" he embraced me protectively Vanessa looked pale and horrified between me and Harry
"You-your Highness" she gasped " your mate?"
"Yes, my mate! your future Queen!" he roared making the rest bow as Anna and Kim came forward.
"I- I didn't know... mean it" she stuttered "
"you little b***h you intended to harm Asu and you dare say you didn't mean it!" Kim was ready to jump her but was caught by the waist by Anna who also looked ready to kill.
" Vanessa!" Diego growled, " You were warned to never approached my sister and never to set foot in this house, You order to await your punishment in your house but you deliberately fail to hear my warning over and over again and brought harm not only to my baby sister but to your future Queen!"
she began to quiver and looked around the room in a panic trying to desperately seek help but no one came forward
" Harry you have my permission to punish her" Diego was at his limit if Vanessa wasn't a girl she would have already been beaten to death.
Harry stood straight " For the crime of harming not only an alpha's daughter but a royal family member I sentence her to death"
"DEATH!" she gasped and looked at me
Death isn't that... I knew her intentions but I had hope deep within her she wouldn't.
" I didn't mean to kill her I just wanted to push her a bit" she tried to laugh nervously
Lies.
"Guards!" Harry called out and in a flash, two royal guards were next to us.
"Alpha, Luna" they bowed
" Take this ... girl to the dungeons where she will wait until her pup is born and be executed!" he orders in his alpha voice
the anger that flashed in the guards eyes were not something I expected
"NO, NO!" She screeched as she was dragged away not once did she say she was sorry, my heartache
" Asu, are you okay?" Harry called out to me with worry in his eyes
I tried to smile but I couldn't " even though I knew she would try to do I really hoped she wouldn't, seeing her lose her way it pains me deeply Harry"
he pulled into a hug rubbing my back " It's because you are the blue hybrid my love"
I look up to him " what?"
he chuckled " do you really think I wouldn't know about the history of the blue hybrids"
" you didn't though" Jason pointed out " You just remember which is different"
Harry glared at him " Like I was saying, " he turned to me " your kind is equal to the moon goddess, and as so you all watch over us seeing her lose her way pains you for that reason"
I figured as much " I-"
"Alpha!" A warrior barged in
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Diego snarled as he loosening his protective posture on Kim
but the panic in the warrior's voice only made it worse "rogues are attacking in the northern border!"
" Kim" Brother yelled, " gather the those who can't fight and bring them to the cellar now!"
"Asu you and the girls go and wait for us there!" Hary urged
" No, We can-
" Anna please listen to what they are saying go along with our Luna to the cellar and wait there!" Jason snarled
" No Jason we
" Anna, Kim" I called out to them " we are running out of time bickering do as you are told NOW!"
They scowl " yes, your highness"
" Harry, " I grabbed him by the collar and smashed my lips against his our kiss was deeply passionate, and full of need for one another I let out a moan and he let out a soft growl " please be careful" I gasped out
he chuckled " always my love,"
" Brother, Jason, Liam, Will" I turned to them " please stay safe"
they nodded " don't worry little sis" they dashed off leaving us I felt something build up inside my chest a bad feeling.
"What the hell Asu!" Kim stomp
" Kim, as the Luna you need to watch over those who can't fight it bugs me to the core that we have to stay but who will protect the weak?" her eyes soften and nodded
"you are right" and turn to the nearby warrior " gather everyone who can't fight and bring them to the cellar NOW!" she Luna commanded him
"yes, luna" he bowed and bolted off
" come!" I ran out and saw mother's carrying their pups in their arms running to safety some stumbling and falling while some pups were crying yet the women here had no sign of tears only anger and fierce protectiveness as they held tight their young
"Kim go right, Anna left " I commanded them, we helped the mothers gather their kids helping them get up, and got them to safety thankfully no rogues had made it here giving us time plenty of time a warrior carried Vanessa to the tunnels upon my order.
"Is everyone here?!" Kim asked looking around
" yes!"
"CLOSE THE BUNKER!" I order the two warriors began to close it
when we heard a shriek we turned alert to the woman whose horrified eyes landed on Kim as she began to tremble " L-Luna we are missing some pups from the orphanage!"
everything stood still, I growled and Kim hiss making her submit
" You just noticed!" I yelled
"Lady Asu " one warrior came closer to me " let us take care of it"
"No" I shook my head " we can't take any chances I'll be the one to go stay and protect the rest of the pack"
"then we will join you " Kim came to my side and so did Anna putting the pup she was holding on to down
" I am sorry, but we can not allow you three to take such chances if something were to happen to you three our alpha and royal highness will kill us"
" You dare go against your luna" Kim stood her ground making flinched all this fighting was losing time "as your Luna I command you to let us through your alpha will not do anything to you I promise you that" even if she commanded she wasn't using her Luna's voice they looked at each other.
but wouldn't budge " I order you to stand aside and protect these people while we come back close the door and wait for our signal!"
they couldn't shake her command no matter how much they wanted to, we ran out " CLOSE THE DOOR!" she orders with one last look at the pack I turned and bend down calling placing my hands on the ground calling the water that was soaking deep into the walls forming a wall of thick Ice this will hold it, we turned and ran hearing the loud creak of the door closing
" Harry and Apollo will not like this one bit"
" too bad, I can worry about that later right now we need to get the pups to safety"
" At least the rogues weren't in the field when we came," Anna said
but it was a little too soon for her words the moment we got outside one of them flew over our heads dropping dead the stench of rogues and spilled blood was everywhere what we saw wasn't a clean field anymore it was destruction fire had started and houses destroyed " you had to jinx it didn't you" I looked at her
"Oops" the sound of small cries alerted us and saw a group of rogues surrounding the small ball of pups their tears and fear made my heartache, Kim send them flying with her wind while Anna formed a wall of fire to protect the pups " shh, you are safe now" I cooed their trembling intensified but once they saw us they slowly stop and came running to me clinging to me " is fine, is fine your safe now"
" Asu we'll cover you take the pups and run to safety!" Kim yelled I smell fresh blood and a crack
I can't shift and they cant see that m******e any longer " Anna, keep the wall up we can't let them see this!"
"YES"
"Alright" I turned to the kids " little ones I need you to grab a hold of the person in front of you okay these wall and those two outside will keep us safe but I need you to run as fast as you can without pushing or pulling okay?"
they nodded frantically, and did as they were told they ran as fast as their little legs could my eyes shifted to one who was limping his black curls were a mess and little blue eyes were full of tears but he showed no weakness there was a thug on my heart I reached out for him covering his little face " I got you little buddy" he wrapped his small arms around my neck his shivering stopped and only small whimpers came out moving my heartstrings I placed him down once we reached the opening slowly taking off his arms that were tightly holding on to me " okay little one is time, beyond this point, there will be a glass door and will only open for all of you once inside the wall nothing will harm, go"
he shook his head " pwease cowom with ush! ( please come with us) " he wailed small tears formed in my eyes
" I will give you a mission but for that, you need to be a big boy" I wiped his tears from his baby face " lead the rest to where I told you and make sure everyone gets inside and keep them safe inside the ice wall do you think you can do that?"
he stood tall and puff out his small chest his eyes full of determination " yesh!"
I laughed softly and his small eyes widen " good now go" he nodded and grabbed the hand of the one next to him
"lesh go!" he ran
I laughed and watched his little frame disappear, the wall of fire disappeared, and the girls were out of breath a trail of death rogues behind them.
" took you long enough!" Anna hissed
" What now?" Kim asked
" protect this opening," I order as six rogues were marching to us
" Asu! what the hell! get your asses back in the cellar NOW!" Diego order
" tsk, tsk you now well that command will not work dear brother"
"ASU!" he roared and I closed the link
" mad?" Kim questioned delight in her voice
" try furious" I shrugged " split!"
" if something happens tell Diego and Jason about our past just in case-
" your ass better tell them yourselves!" I spat out we took two rogues each one tried to s***h my back while the other jump at me I took hold of the paw from one and lifted him throwing him to the other with enough force that their colliding the sound of their broken bones signal their death.
" BEHIND YOU!" Celene roared
just in time, I moved to the right as a paw slashed deep into the ground sliding under him and ripping out his heart a loud growl came from him until he gargled and flop down, roundhouse kicking one and smashing the other one with one punch right in the center breaking his ribs and protruding his lungs after a few more, five more cornered us Kim and Anna bumped into my back " it looks like I am a bit of a burden"
"b***h you killed most of them, burden my ass!" Kim laughed
we both laugh with her and began fighting again I jump in the back of one and twisted clean his neck, ripping off the hind leg of one more and digging out the eyes of another but one stopped his eyes frozen on me
" YOU!" he sniffed the air
"f**k!"
"s**t!"
"FOUND YOU!" I stiffen remembering that I forgot to mask my scent
" This isn't good Asu get out of here!" Celene order me
" Retreat!" I order
"OH NO YOU DON'T" he snarled unaware that we could hear him " ALPHA I FOUND-"
Anna snapped her finger the rogue was indulged in a fire burning his feet first slowly traveling up he roared in pain trying to put it out by running his distress and anguish was heard all over as the flames ate him up until nothing but ash was left
" GO!" I urged turning on my heels
until two powerful and shivering growls erupted from behind stopping us as rogues surrounded us Kim and Anna pulled me behind them
" AH, WHAT BEAUTIES!" one of them snickered " and one is the luna"
" This scent!"
" but which one?!"
" We meet again!" two thought our heads turned to the sound of the voices seeing two large Alpha wolves walking from behind the other's one was had his eyes on Kim and the other watching Anna Until their eyes settled on me their dark eyes growing wide and redder sniffing the air,
"Dark magic," I said
Both snickered " beauty and smart, so you are the one he has been going crazy for to think that bastard was right, although sending us here was his mistake"
" for we won't be giving any of you away!"
Anna and Kim stood petrified their eyes glistening the immense pain they were feeling and the rage they were carrying was been leaked out, I knew well who these two bastards were.
" pity, you don't even know what we are saying" The blackest mocked
" so you were the one's who marked their lives" rage flowed in me like venom and Celene begged to be left out "None of you bastards will be keeping any of us, is a pity that whoever sent you won't receive any news, you see I can perfectly hear what you stupid wolves are saying ALL OF YOU!"
Leaking a small but powerful amount of aura, seeing with my own eyes the roles had now reversed having the pleasure to see their eyes widen with horror and surprise.
" Is time to collect a long over-due debt" I smirk
