Chapter 3
“Calvin, they are here.” Liam yelled. I smelled who he was talking about and it smelled like the alpha and beta that helped me. “Is that?” I started to ask when Calvin nodded his head. I was so happy that I was jumping up and down. I ran out of the bedroom with Calvin coming after me. Once I got to a room that looked like the living room I saw Alpha Damon and Beta Dusty standing talking to Liam. I ran up to them and hugged them both. They didn't hug back, because I took them by surprise. Until they finally realized that it was me. “Lily, it's really you. It's been a couple of years. How did you get here?” Damon asked. “Well I was in between missions and decided to lay down on the shore by a lake, got trapped in a tree by this alpha. Then rogues and hunters attacked and I helped out and got hurt. Finally healed and decided to let my walls down and Calvin ended up being my mate. Why are you guys here?”
They were trying to process the information. “Well, Liam here called and wanted to meet with us about the girl that we helped years ago.” Dusty said. I looked back at Damon and he had a far look on his face. “Damon's mindlinking Bella.” Dusty noticed that I was looking at him confused. “She's probably mad because I left without saying goodbye.” “Both her and Callie were, but they got over it.” I nodded. “Bella is very excited that you're alive. He also told Callie and they want to see you.” I felt really happy that I had people that missed me. “Now Lily why haven't you been eating?” Damon asked in a brotherly tone. “Well when you're short on cash and you're always on the go. I don't get much time to eat.” Dusty got out his phone and said, your lying." He showed Damon the phone and he looked kinda hurt. “Really Lily” “Hey I don't like to spend money. Anyways how do you have access to my bank account and I don't, that's not fair.” I whined. Both men laughed and said, “Well we set the account up for you. The only way that we know that you were alive was when your employers placed the money in an untraceable account then it got transfered into your account.” Dusty explained.
“If you're not careful I will take you down.” I said to him, “Bring it on sister.” Dusty said back. Then we heard a growl and we looked over to see who it was from, it ended up being Calvin. I looked at Calvin with a smile on my face. When I noticed that both Calvin and Liam looked a little confused on how I was talking to Damon and Dusty. I couldn't help myself and asked them, “What are you two thinking about?” “If we didn't know better we would have thought that you three were siblings.” Calvin spoke up. I laughed at that and said, “That is what a couple of months do to a young girl. Both these guys helped me and trained me. Their mates tried to spoil me and we became close. We think of each other as siblings and most of the time we act like siblings. Anyways I wanted to know if I can use your training grounds?” “I don't see a problem in that, but why do you want to use the training grounds?” Calvin was confused. I didn't give him an answer, I just smiled at him. I walked to the front door and left the pack house. I was walking to the training grounds when Calvin came up beside me and grabbed my hand and held it. Everyone was walking beside us until we reached the training grounds.
Calvin's pack was training hand to hand combat, but stopped once they sensed both alphas approaching. The wolves bowed to the alphas to show respect. “First things first, your training is horrible. Now everyone who wants to learn how to fight stays. The others that think women can't fight please leave!” I yelled. Everyone looked at Calvin for direction. “I suggest you all stay and learn.” Everyone nodded except one guy and he decided to open his mouth, “This chick is a rogue. Why should we listen and learn from her?” He sounded angry when he spoke about me being a rogue. I noticed Calvin getting ready to say something but I stepped in. “What's your name?” I asked in a nice voice. “Ryan, head of the warriors.” He sounded proud about his title. “Well, Ryan let's fight and see who is stronger and who should listen to who.” I suggested. “Ok, how about one round in human and one round in wolf form. No injuries and pin down to the count of ten. Sounds good to you, rogue?” I nodded and looked back at Dusty and said, “Sorry Dusty you have to wait, because this pathetic excuse they call the head warrior is first. Now everyone circled up and watched how to properly fight an enemy.”
Everyone listened and circled up around us and I noticed that Dusty was in his wolf form and sitting down watching the beginning of the fight. Once everyone was settled I looked at Ryan and said, “Calvin will start counting once we are pinned down. What form are we starting in first?” I asked. Ryan looked at me and said, “Human for first then we can move to wolf form.” I nodded and got into my fighting stance. Once Calvin said 'Start' Ryan didn't take long before charging at me, I dodged his attacks because he was so predictable. I saw his punches before he was able to send them my way. It was a pathetic fight. I was just letting him wear himself down before I took him down. I love to have fun when I'm fighting and I know how they throw or kick, it makes it easier for me. But I was trying to show this pack that they needed to learn how to fight better. I finally had my fun and ended the match and pinned him down. After the first round I held my hand out for Ryan to grab it, so I could help him up. He looked at it and swatted it away and got up. Then out of anger he quickly shifted to his wolf.
His wolf was a brown color and I noticed that his markings matched the wolf that stepped on the twig that gave them away. I looked at Calvin and said, “We need to practice on stealth. He’s the one that stepped on a twig that alerted me. I can't believe that the head of the warriors couldn't watch where he was stepping.” I giggled a little, but I was soon cut off by a growl and people telling me to run. I decided to jump and shift in mid air. I looked around and everyone except Damon and Dusty were surprised. It didn't take Ryan long to recover from the shock. He charged at me again and I dodged.
Then the smell of rogues hit my nose and I ended up running towards the smell. Damon, Dusty, Liam, Calvin, and all the fighters were on my tail. We got to the rogures and we attacked them. Once every single rogue was killed or fled, I turned around. I found Ryan who was getting ready to attack me when my back was turned. I quickly let out a loud fierce growl and he stopped in his tracks and shifted back to human. I shifted back and said, “Never attack when your sparring partner has their back turned. Now go and train.” Everyone left except for the alphas and betas that were looking at me dumbfounded.
Calvin snapped out of it and came over and placed his arm over my shoulder and said, “That was amazing.” “Thanks” We headed back to the pack house. Dusty looked at Calvin and asked, “Can we spend a couple of days here until after the alpha's meeting, which is in two days? It would be kind of pointless to leave and have to come back this way just to go to the meeting.” “Ya that is absolutely fine with me we got extra rooms that you can stay in. Hey Lily I was wondering if you would like to accompany Liam and I to the meeting?” Calvin asked me. I looked shocked but eventually I responded and said, “That's fine” Before I was able to ask about clothes Liam said, “I already have a bag packed for you. We will depart tomorrow because we have some other business to discuss with the pack before the meeting.” Everyone nodded.
We were in silence until Calvin asked, “Anyone hungry?” “Yes, Lily can make us something to eat.” Damon said in a joking tone. “Ya right if you want to die.” I said back. “Ya Damon, remember when she made mac and cheese and both of us were out of commission for two days.” Dusty reminded both of us of my terrible cooking experience in their pack house. Then the three of us laughed because it was horrible. “I remember my old pack made me cook and I burnt myself on the stove to get out of it. Needless to say that the punishment for not cooking was worse. Until they decided that I couldn't cook. I can't wait to show that alpha what I have become.” Calvin smiled at my statement because it was full of confidence. Calvin fixed sandwiches for us all.
Damon decided to ask me a question. “Lily, when is your birthday?” I looked down at my food. I hated letting people know when my birthday was. “My birthday, I don't celebrate. The reason for that is it was the day my parents died. Also the day that the beta of my old pack took advantage of me, but that is not the worst thing. The worst thing was that it was the day that I became a lone wolf. Stripped from my title, from family, friends, and pack.” When I finished I was crying. I was pulled from my seat and in a group hug with four strong men. I knew they were family. Three brothers and a mate that loved me even though they only knew me for a short amount of time. “Well here we celebrate birthdays and my little sis needs a celebration so either you tell us or we will find out.” Liam said, I was able to tell in his voice that he will find a way of finding out my birthday. I couldn't help the smile that came to my face when he said sis. “I turn sixteen on September 18th.” “That's in a week. I will tell Bella and Callie to get over here by then. They would love to see you again.” Damon said with a smile on his face.
I smiled back and said, “You guys are my family. I never had a party for my birthday. I was usually locked in a room or forced to do something. I love you guys.” The four guys gave me another group hug and when we broke up, I noticed Jake standing in the doorway. I walked over to him and gave him a hug and said, “Your family too. This pack is family to me and the Royal blood pack is too.” The day went quickly. Calvin asked me out on a date, and it was a simple picnic under the stars. We got back to the pack house and he hugged me after dropping me off at my room door. I opened my door and Calvin was walking away. “Calvin” He turned around and I pulled him into a hug. “Thank you for everything.” Then before I realized what I was doing I kissed his cheek. He returned the kiss with one on my cheek and said, “Your welcome mate.” Then he left.
I smiled and walked inside my room, I was happy. I couldn't really sleep that night. “So what do you think about our mate, Kira?” “He's sweet. I'm happy his wolf and him are waiting for us.” “What do you mean?” “It's hard for a male wolf not to mark their mate after finding them, it's especially hard for alpha wolves. But I have been talking with Prince, my mate's wolf, and he understands. He doesn't want to lose us.” “When will we feel the mate bond?” “Usually when a wolf turns sixteen. Before knowing and talking with him I would have said wait till you're sure, but after talking with him and getting to know who he is, I have no doubt that he is our mate.” I was happy to find out that Kira was accepting our mate. “Get some rest my child, we had a busy day.” After she said that I fell asleep.
“Hey Lily, time to leave.” Calvin said. I groaned and went back to sleep. That's when I felt Calvin pick me up and carry me, but I was so tired that I didn't care where we were going. When I finally decided to wake up we were in a car. I stretched and noticed that I was sitting in between Calvin and Damon, then Dusty and Liam were sitting up front. I looked out the window and noticed trees that looked familiar. Then Dusty said, “We are here. Welcome to the Dark Claw pack.” My heart started to beat faster until I felt someone's hand on my lap and that calmed me down. “This is my old pack.” I whispered. “It's alright you got us sis.” Damon said. Which calmed me down a little hearing that I had people to protect me.
“I also requested that I have one room because I would be sharing with my future luna. I didn't feel right making you sleep on your own. But I would sleep on the couch or floor.” Calvin's words really calmed me down and actually I had a smile on my face, because he really cared for my well being. We pulled up to the pack house and I saw a couple of omegas waiting. The boys got out and the girls bowed and said, “Alpha is glad to meet you but he had to deal with something. Please sit in the living room and wait. We will take your bags to your rooms.” The head girl said. “Thank you girls.” Liam said, trying to be nice and polite. Calvin wrapped his arm around my waist and we walked inside. I looked around and everything was the same, nothing had changed which worried me.
The boys sat down and I looked at Calvin and said, “I have to use the bathroom. I will be back.” He nodded. I found the bathroom and when I was done I was walking back to the guys when I ran into someone. “Watch where you're going!” A very familiar voice yelled at me. I looked up from the ground and noticed that it was the luna of the pack. I got up and kept my head down and tried to walk away, but it didn't take long before she realized it was me, that's when she grabbed me by my neck and pinned me to a wall. “What is an abomination like yourself doing back inside this house. You're a rogue, a dangerous one at that.” She was spitting in my face as she talked. I was losing my breath until I heard a growl. “You take your hand off my mate, Now!” Calvin said. “Are you crazy in the head because she is no good for anything? This slave couldn't even produce an heir for this pack. She ran away from her duties and became a rogue.” She continued to say.
That was all It took to push me off the edge and I couldn't control my growl. I growled at her and she dropped me in shock. “I was the daughter of the Alpha and Luna of this pack before they died. I was the next alpha but that isn't what happened. I ran away and became a lone wolf and assassin. Then found my Mate, Calvin the Alpha of the Silver Moon pack. I also made a family with the Royal Blood pack. So I suggest you back off and leave me alone, or I will hurt you!” She ran away and I felt tired. Calvin was holding me and he looked proud. He picked me up and kissed my forehead and said, “That's a true alpha and she is my mate.” I smiled at him and he carried me back to the living room where all the guys started to clap. Calvin set me down and sat next to me on the couch and I laid my head on his shoulder.
We heard the door open and close then the alpha walked in. He was wiping something off his hands and said, “Sorry for the wait, also sorry for my lunas behavior. My name is Jack, the alpha of the Dark claw pack. Nice to meet the Royal blood pack and the Silver Moon pack.” Then he finally looked up and saw me and he said, “Well if it's not the little slave Lily. What is a rogue doing in my pack house?” That's when Calvin got up and said, “My name is Calvin, Alpha of the silver moon pack. This is my mate and future luna of the Silver Moon pack, Lily. Then this is my beta Liam.” Then Damon got up and said, “I'm alpha and King Damon of the Royal Blood pack. This is my beta Dusty. Now if you have issues with my sister being in your pack house then we will leave.” I could see the surprised expression on Jack's face. “Fine I will have a couple of my omegas show you to your rooms.” Four girls came out and showed us our rooms. “Dinner is at six pm,” our girl said. We nodded and walked in.
Calvin sat down on the couch and I walked around the room. I opened the nightstand and pulled out a pack of condoms and lube. I walked over to the other nightstand and pulled out the chains, handcuffs, and a gag. I walked over to the dresser and opened all the drawers which contained s*x toys. Then I opened the closet and pulled out the revealing outfits. I proceeded to walk in the bathroom and set everything out of its hiding place, even restraints in the shower. Once I was done the door opened and three really mad guys walked in. They looked around at everything and hugged me. “What is this place?” Calvin asked. “We got to our rooms and there was a naked girl handcuffed to each of our beds. Now looking at your room is it a s*x room.” Liam said.
All the emotions from my past flooded back. “I need to go for a run.” I managed to say. I ran out of the room and outside. I covered my scent and shifted and I started to run. I ended up crying in my wolf form, I felt weak. I ended up stopping to take a breather and pull myself back together before I headed back to the pack house. Before I was able to go back I was surrounded by wolves and they were growling at me. I knew it was the Dark claw pack. They charged at me and I quickly dodged them. I ran back to the pack house and howled, considering I wasn't part of either of the packs I couldn't mindlink them for help. Shortly after I howled I saw Calvin's black wolf running to me. I was exhausted and shifted back to human and fell to the ground. He laid beside me on the ground and then darkness consumed me.
Calvin POV
I was sitting on the couch as Lily walked around the room taking out everything. I was shocked at how many things that this pack stocked in the rooms. They definitely made sure that anyone's kinky fantasies were taken care of. After Lily finished up the bedroom the door opened and the guys walked in and gave Lily a hug. “What in the world is this place?” I asked. “We got to our rooms and there was a naked girl cuffed to each of our beds. Now looking at your room it looks like they like to please their guests in anything they can think about. Whether they are single and the pack loans out a girl or if your with someone and the pack gives you a s*x room.” Liam said.
I looked over at Lily and she looked like every memory that she had came back to her and slapped her in the face. I barely heard her say, “I need to go for a run.” Then she ran out of the pack house. We were trying to follow her but we lost her. We looked around the pack house but she wasn't near. Then Jack ran past us yelling “Rogue on the territory!” I looked back at the other three and said, “Damon, you want to come with me and then we can see what he is talking about?” Damon nodded his head. We shifted and ran off in the direction that Jack went. Before we were able to comprehend what was going on we saw Lily running fast towards the house. Once we saw her, I ran to her and she stopped right in front of me and she shifted back to human and fell to the ground. I laid next to her. “Liam, we found her. Can you please come and find us? We are not very far from the pack house.” I said in the mindlink. “On our way.” he replied. After Liam and Dusty came they surrounded us. Damon was beside me standing while Liam and Dusty were standing in front of us. Everyone was trying to protect Lily because she was exhausted and passed out.
The Dark claw pack came. “Let us have the rogue and everything will be fine.” One guy said. I growled and so did Damon. “You're not going to take my Luna when she didn't do anything wrong.” Liam growled. “Ya, You would have to go through us four to get her. If you do that, then war will break out between your pack and ours. Would you want that?” Dusty asked.
