Chapter 1

Lucian

"Alpha! We are coming up on the Rogue village." Beta Marcus tells me, a look of anger on his face because he is in a desperate search for his mate who was taken by Rogues, "I suggest that we shift now and kill them."

The trees are rushing past us, almost a blur by how fast we are running. This is a dangerous situation, something that we might not be able to control. The warriors with me are waiting for my answer, looking at me for permission. I know I feel the hatred even though I didn't have anyone taken. These are my people and I'm not going to let them be taken like this.

"Yes, we need to shift but make sure to not be anywhere alone!" I command of them, my heart thumping erratically in my chest, "These wolves are going to do everything in their power to kill you and separate us. We are not going to allow this to happen. That is all that I will say to this. Go!"

Everyone shifts, myself included, and I feel my paws hit the ground. I take off running through the forest, knowing that I'm being followed even as we decide to split up a little bit. So much has changed, and it is a dangerous game that is being played right now because the Rogues are going to do everything in their power to kill us. I'm not going to let it happen so easily and I'm sure everyone is feeling the same way.

MARCUS ~ Alpha,I sense Rogues up ahead. Should we surround them or let them know we are here?

It's an easy enough decision for me to make because I'm not going to let these bastards win anymore.

LUCIAN ~ Letthem know we are here. They are not going to win anyways and I'm going to relish in their death if I am being honest. Let's just take them on and be done with it. I hate them either way. Let's do this, Beta.

No one would dare question me because they know what I'm capable of. I'm not so nice when it comes down to it, and I don't mind destroying these bastards for everything that they have done so far. Rogues are the worst, making me completely sick to my stomach because I honestly don't know how they even dared to pull this bullshit because it is pretty obvious to me where we would end up going with this.

The first Rogue that I see, I tackle him to the ground, clamping my jaws down around his throat. He can't win against me, no Rogue being able to protect themselves from an Alpha. I'm okay with this though, wanting to destroy each and every one of them for even trying this shit. It's nerve-wracking in the sense that it has even come to this, and it makes me feel a bit sick to my stomach to know that I could have lost everything if I wasn't being careful enough.

MARCUS~ I think I have the scent of the females! I am going to track it, Alpha.

LUCIAN ~ Dothat and I'll be right behind you. I think that they are trying to lead us away from where we need to get to. Don't let them win.

MARCUS ~ I understand.I won't let them.

I take the Rogues down one by one without really thinking about it, just trying to do everything in my power to protect my people. I hate these selfish bastards, knowing it is highly possible that they are only doing this because they can. They don't care about anyone but themselves and they know that there is no way to hold back when so much has happened already. I hate it, feeling like my blood is boiling every time I see those bastards coming towards me.

I don't know why the Rogues thought it would be a good idea to take women from my pack. They should have known that I would come after them and I wouldn't show mercy. I have never been through something like this before and I know there is no way in hell that I'm going to allow it to happen this way either way. I just keep thinking that maybe I will be able to do everything in my power to run after them and find my people. They better hope no one has been injured.

MARCUS~ I found where they have the women, and it is heavily guarded. I think the best thing for us to do is to just get to them and not let these bastards take them. What do you want me to do?

LUCIAN~ I will be right there. Kill anyone who approaches you but don't try to go inside yet. I will handle this.

I trust Marcus to handle everything but the best thing for me to do is to be there to help him. When I see how the Rogues are acting, I know that they are trying to hide everything from me but I'm not going to let them fool me so easily. I hate bastards who think that they can do whatever they want. They are lucky that I don't just rip their heads off the minute that I see them.

They better just hope to the Moon Goddess that my people are alright.
