Prologue 2

I looked down at the victims and immediately

wished I hadn't. The pack members looked at me in awe and gratitude. It was almost as if they had already given up before I even came over.

No, they can't die on me.

"Hang on! I'll get you out of here". I tugged

at the panel but to may dismay, it wouldn't budge. Finally someone came over to help me. I looked up to see my father's Beta, James, leaning over to lift the other side. With enraged cry, I pushed the panel above my head just in time to see another fall in front of my face.

Covering my face with my hands, I took

a few backwards steps. The debris came up in clouds, choking me.

"Hazlynn!" I heard that voice again, this time filled with hints of desperation. A figure appeared beside me just when I pushed the useless piece of wood away. With a heavy tug

on the arm, she dragged me away from the scene.

"We are under attack . Let's go! "

Knowing that James would take care of the victims,I tried to keep up with my mother."What's happening?" I asked in between gasps, exhausted from the effort the put in the resue mission.

"We are under attack" , she repeated. Her shoulders we're slumped forwards and she wore a frown on her face. Wisps of hair falling were out from her usually-neat bun. For the first time of my life, my mother looked flustered and not at all in control of situation. Her face was charred and her clothes... It was hard to believe they were white in the first place.

"Blood Moon" . It sounded like a statement not a question.

"Yes .We've got to get you somewhere safe"

she led me past empty corridors and showed and slowed down when we entered the study.

She suddenly stumbled and would have fallen had I not caught her.

"Mum!"

"I'm fine." She breathed out holding my her left hand out onto the wall to balance herself."I can just feel the ties from the pack members

slowly being ripped off from my heart one by one".

As the Alpha and the Luna, mum and dad could feel every death of a pack member. But for me, they were just pinches to the heart, unlike my parents. Each one heart more than the last.

She opened the drawer of a table and took out a bottle. Moving quickly, she sprayed my entire body throughly the liquid. It smelled like smoke. This was tactic that I had learned a few years ago. That was used to cover up one's scent.

"Let me see if I can smell you".She started sniff around my body, trying to detect my scent before nodding in satisfaction.

That particular move from my mum supported my next guess.

I was leaving.

She walked over to the bookcase with it's back facing the brick wall. There was an empty space where a flower pot once stood

beside the bookcase. It was big enough for one person to squeeze through.

"Dad and the kids?"

"Dad, below fighting. The kids, you'll see them later." She flicked her fingers impatiently.

I never knew why my dad didn't just take away the flower pot and push the bookcase straight into the wall, but now I did.

I watched as my mum push the flower pot away before running her fingers over the brick wall. She suddenly stopped at a particular brick and pushed it in.

Like a scene from a movie , the wall pushed to the side and a poorly-lit passageway could be seen. "Go"

I hesitated and turned around to face her and asked "What about you?"

She gave me shaky smile of reassurance. "I'll be fine".Stay Save. You will meet the kids at the other side . Drive until you teach Golden Moon, alright? Look for the Alpha. Tell him that you are the one they're looking for" she brushed the stray strands of my hair away from my forehead and before kissing it gently.

"What do you mean?"

"There is no time for questions."

A choked sob escaped from my lips.This felt too much like a goodbye; like it was the last time I would ever see her.

"Why don't you and dad come with us?"

It was futile question, but I needed to hear her response."As the Alpha and the Luna, we're the last ones going down fighting."

I felt my heart clench at her words. I was about presuade her to come along with me when a tortured scream came from a few corridors away. My mother quickly pushed me into the sceret passageway and pressed a liver at the side.

The wall began closing and I turned around towards the small opening.

"Mum"!

"Stay Safe." There was a sad smile on her face." And remember, we always love you."

Just like that, the wall closed until all I saw now were slabs of concrete holding the bricks in place. The shouts and screams of agony that sounded vaguely familiar from the other side of the wall we're enough to make me want to break down and cry.

"Where are they?" I heard a gruff voice ask.

" They're.. died ." My mum coughed out, as if she was choking on something.

I heard the sound of knief cutting through the flesh and I held in sobs. One thing that was weird that I didn't feel any pain. I should've, if my mum was gone away.

"Sniff around and see if there was anyone here," that same voice from before spoke ." **She may not have been alone."

"Yes,Leo**."

Is my mum gone? What would I do without her? What would the kids do without her?

The kids!

I suddenly remembered about my siblings who were waiting for me and turned back to the passageway.

Leo.

At least I had gotten his name.

Without caring about all the warnings I had heard for the better part of my life, I shifted in to my wolf and ran towards wherever the path was leading to. As I got closer to the end of pack's territory, I distinctively heard a howl of victory and knew right there and then, that my pack had lost.

It was nearly back.

Shifting back into my human form before reaching the end of tunnel , I was immediately greeted by my younger siblings and the personal bodyguards that were assigned to the Alpha's children.

"Miss Hazlynn, we've got to go now."

One of the guards, Richards handed me a long cotton T-shirt which I pulled over my ***** body .At the particular situation , there were more important things going through my mind than to care about my nudity.

Nudity wasn't an issue among our pack members as we did grow up around each other anyway .

"What happened to your dress, miss?" Homer asked from the driver's seat as I got into the tinted black car.

"It got burnt so I threw it away."

It was exactly a lie, It was just ripped into pieces when I shifted .

"Where's dad and mum ?" my 15-year old sister, Hadliegh , asked even though she already knew the answer.

"Back in the house." was my brief response .I want sure if they were dead or alive, and judging from Hadliegh's reaction, she didn't feel anything either.

"They are not coming?" . Tristan, who was busy wiping his tired eyes, asked .

"No"

With that, the floodgates open . it didn't matter wheather my parents were alive, I mean ,It did. Of course. But the whole pack was gone.

My parents? I was sure that they're somewhere .

Hiding.

I turned away to stare out of the window as Homer sped off into the darkness. Out of the corner of my tear-filled eyes, I could see Hadliegh coaxing Tristan to sleep. I didn't dare turn behind.

I knew how horrifying the situation was.

The White Moon pack has gone down in flames.

Lost in my thoughts, everything happened so quickly that I had almost missed it.

As were driving up the rocky and hilly terrain belonging to the Golden Moon pack , one tyre from the right side of the car came off and flew past my window. The whole car crashed into a tree and I hit the passenger seat in front of me impact.

My ears were ringing and my arms were outstretched as I tried to reach for my siblings. Hadleigh, who still had a sleeping Tristan on her lap stared at me in confusion, before panic settled in . Her eyes grew wide and her mouth was opened as she tried to speak.

But I couldn't hear her.

Black spots covered my eyes and my breathing got heavier and heavier before I was engulfed into darkness.

The last thing I saw was a pair of blue eyes staring into mine.
