"That is none of your concern Pup" Jared snap angrily.
"I apologize for my bluntness but Alpha King she is important to me and I don't want her to face any hardship involving with something she have no idea about. I don't want her to be caught up in a mess.. if you're not serious.." Sam growls back slightly. His wolf angry, possessive and protective of her.
"Sam.." Marley whisper worried about her son. With the Alpha King trembling with anger right infront of them.
"Mine. She's mine" he let out a possessive loud growl that could make anyone cower and tremble in fear.
"I don't see that's any of your concern but given since she is under the care of the Blue Moon pack.. we working on that now kid. Stacey is our to be Luna Queen. She would be under our protection and won't be involved in this matter.. Alpha King is currently handling everything clean" trying to settle the tension and ease his Alpha King from getting more agitated Cameron speak out.
"Our apology Alpha King. Stacey is a dear family member to us.. she is like a sister to Sam and daughter to us. Stacey is the daughter of my best friend Brandon. She have always being protected from the world.. distant from socializing. We are only worry for her well being. We don't mean to offend you Alpha King.. neither my son concern" Felix say glancing at Sam besides him with a clench jaw.
"That better be all and nothing more as you say Alpha Felix. It wouldn't be good if there is more" his voice firm and impassive.

"Stacey are you comfortable here? Are you liking it?" Marley ask making Stacey stare at her confused.
"Yes.. I like it here. Everyone is so kind and considerate towards me.. treating me like a real family" Stacey say with a smile.
"I'm glad to hear that. Stacey you are also a part of this family.. You can always come talk to me for anything.. I'll help you to my best ability. Please feel comfortable to share anything" she say holding her hand sitting on her bed. Marley came to her room after dinner.
"I will keep in mind about that.. thank you" she hug Stacey. She would probably be confused with everything.
If the Alpha king is truly her Mate then she would be experiencing all the symptoms. Unconsciously longing for their partner. Yearning for their touch. Being apart becomes hard for both. Delaying the mating would make them suffer more. Then the spark which erupt with physical contact. Being a human with no idea about mate ship would confused her more.
Jess knock entering her room dress in her sleeping pyjamas carrying her pillow.
"Hi mom you're here" Jess say surprise. Marley sigh helpless. As usual Jess never sniff.
"Stacs can I crash in with you tonight? Sam's seems pretty worried about you.." Jess say shrugging her shoulder leaning on the door with her pillow tug between her underarm.
"Sam really is protective of you Stacey.. I'll leave you girls to decide.. retire early to bed both of you.." giving them a stern look she walks out. Leaving them alone.
"Sure but I have extra pillows here.."
"Well I for an unknown reason can't fall asleep without my own pillow.. weird I know" Jess say climbing on the bed.
"Yours is much softer than me.. Sam really is partial" Jess groan muttering under her breathe refering to the mattress.
"You ok Stacey? I.. I mean about today.. everyone is sensitive about the topic tonight.." Jess ask awkwardly hugging her pillow. Sam even offer to buy her snacks for a whole month to check up on Stacey.
"Yeah I'm good.. I was just tired earlier I'm better now.. thank you" she smile at her. Her blue eyes sparkling.
"Wow.. uhh I mean you're really beautiful Stacey.. you have a beautiful smile and a very sparkling eye. I mean the real kind of beautiful not compliment because of awkwardness or being polite" Jess mumbles trying to explain herself.
"Thank you.. you're beautiful too Jess. Kind and innocent. Beautiful and pretty in your cute little ways. Same here real compliment" Jess blush with Stacey complimenting her. Stacey chuckle softly.
"Thank you.. let's get to bed. I'm so excited to sleep with you Stacey I always wish I have a sister"
"Good night Jess.." Stacey mumble softly pulling the blanket over them.

Every passing minutes Stacey feels like on cloud. Skipping her class sneaking out of the school. She escaped to the woods. Walking down the narrow path to their spot. A smile tuck on her face.
A small whimper makes her stop. Scanning around she saw nothing. But the small painful whimper continues. Getting concern with it Stacey begin looking around. Till she discovered two young pups cuddle together trembling behind the bush. Her heart clench with the sight infront of her.
The slight grey pup was injured on his ribcage blood spilling out continuously. Stacey gasp seeing the huge blood loss. When she make a move to help stop the blood the other pup growl. Snarling his long teeth at her. Taking her as a enemy. Before she could speak or make a move a low growl from behind make her freeze.
The mother wolf. The rogue queen after eliminating the threat took off sniffing for her pups. How a normal day out with her newly shifted sons for a run lead to this much damage. Inorder to teach them small basics things they came out without any warriors. Not expecting how terrible the outcome would be. From a small chase of rabbits leading to a huge chase of life and death. Unconsciously stepping into an Alpha land was immediately attack by their warriors. Even though they mean no harm.
Just because they are Rogue.
It took slow agonising step towards her despite she is deeply hurt from the attack. Her son's safety was her first priority that she did not notice the defenseless human girl standing before her son. Everything was a threat to them. Stacey gulp freezing all over. It was another similar huge dog like Cookie but small compare with him. The eye was nothing soft and caring like his.
Three wolves appears from nowhere attacking the mother wolf. With her injured state she could not stand against the warriors wolves. After it went dead their attention shifted to the two pups. But Stacey comes first.
With a loud growl one jumps attacking her. A loud scream of terror and close eyes was all she could do. More growls and snarling sounded but the large painful bite she anticipated never took place. Opening her eyes to the horrible view before her. Her legs gave her up as she slump down.
Bloods stain on his mouth as the other wolves goes limp. Jared growls turning around to see his mate petrified terror looks on her pale face. Her mouth parted with shock.. her blue eyes blur. He growls ignoring her fearful frightened state. If he was a minute late he would have lost her forever.
When he saw the wolf propel at her while she stood frozen he felt his breathe cut short. His heart pounding thinking of the worst scenario that could possibly happend. He panicked running towards her shifting in the process. Fully naked. As she falls on his arm. Eyes close, sweats on her forehead.
He never want to terrified her like this. Nor let her experience a situation like this.
"It's alright now.. I'm sorry you have to see this" he whisper stroking her hair as she lost consciousness.
"Hunter double the guards on the border. I want all the warriors in the ground in an hour. All new and old.. everyone" he need to protect her now. The wolves he killed are not just any ordinary werewolves but his enemy pack and the Rogue Queen dead. Would only make it messier.
He fear no one. But he now have someone to protect.
"Cameron prepare the room.. your Luna Queen is coming home" he order picking her up.
"Alpha King but the problem with the Black Sliver pack is not solved yet" Cameron concern voice sounded through the link. It would be more dangerous for Stacey to be exposed as the Luna Queen now. When there are many eyes aiming for the position.
Power hunger Alpha's and females.
"Do as I said" he snap blocking him out. Like the hell he don't know about the danger. It was why he delay claiming her. But now the situation change.

Stacey groan sweats forming on her head with a deep frown. Shifting and turning around. Laying on the soft king size bed.
"You kill my mother.. you took her from us" the two pups she saw in the woods glare and growl at her. She wanted to speak out but no words escape her mouth.
Tears roll down her cheeks trying her best to explain her innocence. She was moving her mouth shouting at the top of her voice but it was deaf to their ears as they blame her.
"He kill her for you.. to protect you. Because of you she's dead" Stacey stop shouting their words processing through her. Who kill to protect her? She ask but no voice came out.
Getting frustrated she shouts and scream.
Stacey woke up breathing heavily cover in sweats. Sitting up. The door kick open and a frantic looking Jared rush in panting. Looking alert. Scanning the room for any danger. Sniffing the air for any scent or threats.
"Stacey.. are you hurt? I heard you scream" sitting in the bed he cupped her cheeks wiping the tears that roll down.
She open her mouth to speak but stop. What if he thinks she's crazy? The event that took place was anything near normal. Hearing her words would make anyone thinks she have lost her mind. She don't want to view as a patient again. The sympathy and pity look she gets from her doctor and nurse make her feel pathetic. Weak.
"Tell me. Are you hurting any where?" His voice came out rougher and stern. He don't want her hurting either mentally or physically.
"No.." she softly whisper shaking her head.
"Why were you screaming? Mmh.." he hummed pushing the hair out of her face.
"Nightmares" she whisper again. Her hand trembling as she remembers the two pups.
"Would you tell me what it is?'' the tingling sensation never fades away as he touch her. It was very comforting to her. Her pounding heart her uneven breathing slow down. Returning back to normal.
Jared smile sadly but happy he was able to bring her a little comfort. Stacey shakes her head not wanting to talk about it. It was scary.. too scary for her to remember again.
"Are you sure? You'll feel better if you share.. maybe I can help" he suggest wanting to help his mate.
"I don't want to think about it" she mumble looking at her slightly shaking hands clamp together. Jared sigh holding her hand. The tingling sensation starting again.
"Ok I won't.. lay down and rest more. When you wake up I'll have someone bring you food if you like or you can come down" Stacey immediately shakes her head. Afraid to dream of them again.
"Stacey.. you need rest" his voice stern narrowing his eyes at her. Stacey gulp with his immediate change of attitude. From soft and caring to scary and stern.
"I'm scared.." she mutters under her breathe. Jared eyes soften staring at his mate fidgeting with her tiny fingers.
Alex whimpers sadly.
"I'll be here Stacey. I'll be beside you.." he assured rubbing her hand with his thumb.
"But sti-" she protest not wanting to close her eyes. The image was vividly imprint on her mind.
"Trust me.. I'll be here when you wake up. Right besides you" he cut her protest. Knowing she needed rest. He smile when she hesitantly nod back.
Pulling the blanket over her he stroke her hair gently giving her comfort through his touch. A mate touch and scent bring comfort to their partner. Mostly during crucial times like losing their temper, in a panicking state, having an attack.. in any situation.
"Beta Cameron continued the meeting" he mind link his beta. A smile tuck on his lips when Stacey holds his two fingers tightly. Fearing he would leave her when she falls asleep.
"I'm here.. I'm not leaving" he peck her forehead as she stumble off to sleep. Her breathing even out. Inhaling softly.
