It's been a month since I moved in with Kane and I have never been happier. At first, I was very uncomfortable around him always with me, always making sure I don't get hurt. He wouldn't let me lift anything for a week until he thought I was capable of doing it myself.

He is a very demanding man so didn't fight him on it. He looked very happy doing it for me and I didn't want to take that away from him.

I have spent a lot of time in the home studio he made for me and I have made some insanely good progress.

It's currently raining and I'm again in the studio with a hot cup of green tea.

Kane had 'pack business' come up and left early this morning and I haven't heard from him since. I'm used to it now but at first, I was worried something would be wrong.

It's quite dangerous being an Alpha, as I heard from Amanda who still worries about Lucas while he is out doing god knows what in the woods.

Kane has sheltered me from the pack for now until I feel ready. But I have met some of his pack members and I'm really good friends with a lead warrior, he is called Lex. He reminds me of an older brother if I ever had one and he is on very good terms with Kane.

At first, Kane did not like the thought of any unmated men around me but he eventually gave in when I wouldn't speak to him. Now I and Lex are very good friends.

A lead warrior is in charge of all the warriors, they are guardians of the pack. Like an army for humans but they mainly focus on night guarding and patrolling the borders.

I did not know until Kane told me but this is one of the strongest top five packs in the world, with over four thousand members and growing.

It's very overwhelming that I am the Luna. As I heard, me being Luna is a very important role in the pack,. My main role? To provide an heir for the Alpha. Meaning I have to give Kane children when I first found out I wanted to pack my stuff and run.

We haven't even had sex yet... we have come close but it feels as if he is holding back about something, I know lately it feels as if I am almost too obvious about wanting to have sex with him and he ignores it.

It's mainly because his family has a long history of keeping tradition and he wants to respect it.

The tradition? He has to mark me before we mate.

He has to bite into my neck.

No biggie. Just let his huge wolf teeth out and bite into somewhere where it could literally kill me.

I haven't wrapped my brain around it yet so because of me holding back on him.. we have not had sex yet.

I look at the time and it's currently five last one in the morning, he should be home any minute now.

I tidy up my workspace, paintbrushes, and pencils and then I head towards the bathroom to get ready for bed. Brushing my teeth, washed my face, and tidied up after myself then grabbed some pajamas to wear for bed.

I sigh and lie down staring at the ceiling. It's too quiet out here. I close my eyes to sleep and hope Kane comes home soon.

I miss him when he's not here..

SLAM

I jump awake at the noise.

There are loud banging coming from downstairs and I get nervous.

Are we being broken into? Oh my god.

I look for my phone and grab it on the nightstand, going straight for Kane's number. I notice it's currently five in the morning and Kane still hasn't come home.

I hit call.

"FUCKING SHIT!" I hear coming from downstairs as I hear more crashing and slams.

I hear glass being thrown.

Pick up Kane, pick up!

The call goes to voicemail and I panic.

I get out of bed quietly and put my slippers on and head towards the landing, my heart is beating out my chest and I feel incredibly stupid to be doing this.

I hear a familiar pissed-off growling coming from the kitchen downstairs and familiar voices.

That is definitely Kane.

"Alpha...s.. sti.."

Is that Lucas's voice?

I walk down the stairs and the door is wide open, there's blood on the floor and the vase that once belonged to his ancestor that was once near the door has now been smashed into a million pieces.

"Sit still, the healer is on her way!" Lucas's frustrated voice comes out harsh.

Healer? What the hell is happening?

I quickly walk into the kitchen and I feel like a fish out of water gasping for air.

Blood is everywhere, it's a slaughterhouse in the kitchen, and Kane is covered in blood from head to toe.

"What the hell is going on!" I gasp out looking between Kane and Lucas, who are both looking very guilty and shocked at me right now.

"Who's blood is that?" I ask horrified as Kane's face turns white staring at me shocked.

"Lucas get her out of here." Kane's voice is unrecognizable.

Lucas sighs. "Alpha-"

"GET HER AWAY FROM ME!" He booms out, his voice laced with no room for discussion.

I am speechless. Who is this man?

He won't even look at me. No. He promised to not hide anything from me.

Lucas was about to move me from the kitchen as I hear one of the pack healers come in through the door.

"NO! I'm not moving!" I shout at Lucas angrily.

Kane's frustrated growl is now threatening and loud. He looks at me and his eyes are bright yellow, cold, empty and he looks furious.. this is not Kane, his wolf has taken over which means something is wrong with Kane.

He was about to yell at me by the look of fire in his eyes as the pack healer enters the room.

"Excuse me Luna! I need to treat this wound before he loses consciousness." The pack healer says nervously.

I look at Kane to notice he is very pale, trying to sit up straight as Lucas keeps him steady.

I watch the pack doctor grab something in a needle and inject him with it, in an area that is glowing purple..

His veins are glowing, what happened to him? This is all too much to wrap my head around.

"Someone tell me what is going on! Lucas!" I cry out watching the scene unfold in front of me.

Lucas looks at me exhaustion written on his face. "We got ambushed" His voice hardens, his eyes glowing red like normal wolves' eyes do. "We need to get you someplace safe, the Alpha would want this." He says and I'm crying louder now. He nods to one of the pack warriors who escorted me out of the room.

"By who? Please stop!.. don't touch me Lucas!... KANE!" I cry desperately my eyes never leaving Kane's closed ones. He passed out from whatever the healer injected him with and she's abstracting the glowing purple substance from his veins, could it be poison?

"I'm so sorry Sora, he's alive.. you cant see this, he wouldn't want you to see this." Lucas's worried voice rushes out as I'm being dragged out.

I'm kicking and screaming for Kane but my voice is going to deaf ears as they all avoid my gaze with regret written on their faces.

No..!

As I am being carried out of the house I hear it. And I know it will haunt me.

The sound of my big bad Alpha mate yelling out trying to hide the pain, the man who promised me there was nothing bad ever going to happen to him every time he left for pack duties.

The man who promised he would come home safe.

What the fuck happened to you Kane...

Please don't leave me..

The next day

"Sora?" Lex's voice startles me as I was glancing out the window, lost in my thoughts.

"Lex? Is he ok? Is he awake? Can I see him!" I rush out, almost begging him.

I haven't slept all night, I couldn't.

He chucks and brings me in for a hug. I relax a little. "He's fine, really pissed off but he will be fine." He says rolling his eyes. "He's more hurt by what he said to you than being stabbed by a shifter." His amused laugh booms out.

I frown and push Lex away. "This is not funny Lex! He could have died, no one was telling me anything!" I yell out pissed, glaring at him.

His face looks guilty then relaxes. "I'm sorry Sora, he sent me to take you to him, but really he is fine, he cannot die that easy. The poison just stunned him and pissed him off, making his wolf seem out of control as you put it." He says.

"What about the blood? Whose blood was it?" I ask, not sure I will like the answer.

He growls out as he glares daggers at nothing. "The filthy shifters, the Alpha did worse to them than what they did to him."

I swallow hard. "What did he do?" I ask as we drive to the pack clinic.

Lex's eyes were hard. "Ripped every single limb off from their body, before the poison took over, he managed to kill them all before he was stunned, unable to move."

All of them? How many are we talking about here?

I stare at him horrified. "How many were there? "I ask.

"At least a dozen." He says quietly.

A DOZEN?!

I'm getting incredibly pissed off by everything he has told me so far. "Where were you?" I ask quietly, anger in my voice. "Why weren't you there TO PROTECT HIM?" I yell at his face, not caring who hears me.

"Luna.. it was an ambush, none of us knew until we got there." He states. "The whole thing lasted minutes, when we got there he slaughtered them all. It was a bloodbath... none of the blood was his, he killed over 30 shifters in minutes.." He says and I'm horrified.

How is that possible. "But he was alone! That doesn't make sense.." I mutter to myself, not believing what I'm hearing. He should be dead going against that many shifters.

My stomach drops in dread at the thought of losing him.

"We don't know how.. he is shrugging it off as nothing happened." Lex grimaces. "But Sora, something is wrong, there is something he is not telling us." He says quietly as he parks the car, we arrived at the pack clinic, and it's quiet.

"Go, he only wants to see you." Lex says and I nod.

"Thank you.. and sorry for snapping at you.. I.. I will speak to you later?" I ask him, slightly embarrassed at how I raised my voice.

He nods and smiles warmly at me then messes up my hair. "He's waiting for you. Try not to strangle him, he is feeling sorry for himself from the way you saw him last night." He says shaking his head, slightly amused.

I nod feeling slightly better talking to Lex. Knowing Kane would be alright if Lex said so. I still feel really scared to see him. Last night he looked lethal and ready to hurt me if I wouldn't listen to his order to leave.

I snort at the thought of me defying him.

That was a first for me. I smile at how far I've come since meeting him.

I sigh and walk through the building, ready to see my invincible Alpha mate who is literally the most fearless, reckless, and stubborn man I know.

Let's just hope I don't strangle him for being those things.

Cause so help me god if it's not tempting.
