ALEX POV My wolf, Mars, is still pushing for control of my mind. Learning everything, yesterday, about what happened to my mom replays repeatedly through the front of my mind. The hell she went through. Just because of some dumbass notion that she has to be a vampire Queen. Even after her story, and after talking to Aaron last night, I don’t understand why she had to do this. Her life would have been significantly easier. Even more, we wouldn’t be preparing for a war that shouldn’t have been ours to fight. Hell, I’ll fight for this pack, and my family until my dying breath, but this wouldn’t be a war for us to fight if this supposed goddess hadn’t made my mom go to the bastard king anyways. Mars is agitated. It's an hour before training begins. Not that I slept much last night a
