Chapter 21
Chapter 21
Hoping to arrive by nightfall in Ashwood, we decide to stop and stretch our legs, and let our wolf
and lycan out for a run. Excitement builds, because it’s Chaos’ first time running with Storm. We strip
our clothes, and shift, and chase each other, roll, nip and play.
We shift back into our human forms, and naked, lie next to each other in a beautiful field. I roll onto
my side and stare into Hope's beautiful eyes. My fingers run down her stomach and down her arms.
Leaning down, I kiss her passionately. Grabbing her bum, I lift her onto my lap; my erection pressed
against her wet core.
As we kiss, she becomes more aroused and she grinds herself against my member. My hands
make their way to her waist before cupping her breasts.
Hope repositions herself, and I slide my member into her slowly. She moans in ecstasy as it
enters.
We thrust our hips in unison, and moan in pleasure; her eyes fixed on my neck. She can't hold
back any longer, and her teeth protrude.
She is close to climaxing, my fangs protrude, and I mark her as she orgasms. She marks me as I
release my seed into her. She lies on my chest, panting, and gazes into my eyes with love and desire.
We share a fiery kiss. We stay in each other's arms all night, not even making it Ashwood. We make
love and let our wolves out to run and play several times.
The following morning, we continue to Ashwood and enter the territory by midday. Alpha Greg and
Alpha Dan greet us when we arrive. Alex runs out, almost knocking me over, and we hug and pat each
other on the back.
‘Alex, I want you to meet Hope, my mate and your Luna,’ I say, smiling. Alex bows his head.
‘I’m thrilled to meet you. I must introduce you to Bella, my mate,’ he smiles.
We follow them into the pack house, where all the Blood Moon pack members are gathered
around, happy I’m alive and well, and thrilled to see their new Luna by my side. Everyone is excited
and tries to have a moment with Hope. I’m happy to see them welcoming her with open arms.
Bella is sitting on the couch, and looks like she will burst any moment. I take Hope's hand and walk
over to Bella.
‘Bella, this is our new Luna, Hope. Hope, this is Bella, Alex's mate,’ I say. Hope sits down next to
Bella and they form a friendship right away. I approach Alpha Greg and Alpha Dan.
‘Alpha Dan, I want to thank you for looking after the loyal members of my pack. I hope one day, I
can return the favour. Alpha Greg, I'm glad you chose to fight with me, instead of against me. I hope we
will be great allies,’ I smile. They nod, happy with my words.
‘Tomorrow, we will fight and reclaim your territory. I suggest we all get some rest before the battle
tomorrow,’ Alpha Dan suggests. We nod in agreement. I walk over to Hope and take her hand.
‘Come. We’re exhausted, and we must rest, so we can reclaim our home tomorrow,’ I say,
fatigued.
Hope smiles, stands, we go to our room, and strip off and shower together, before falling asleep.
We sleep all night.
We join the other alphas and Bella and Alex for breakfast.
‘We’ll leave at noon, and we should arrive in Blood Moon territory by nightfall,’ I say.
‘I want to come as well,’ Bella says.
‘You’re overdue. You can't come home during a battle. You could be hurt or killed,’ Alex says.
‘I'm sorry, but I'm siding with Alex. You’ll be in safe hands here. When it’s safe to return home, we
will arrange transport back home safely.’ Bella moans, annoyed. Hope gives her a sympathetic look.
‘You will be back with Alex before you know it,’ Hope says, giving her a reassuring smile.
‘Thanks, Luna,’ she replies, with a smile.
We all shift, and run through the fields towards Blood Moon territory. It’s dark when we arrive, and
there are hundreds of pack warriors scattered everywhere.
‘You fight your way through the warriors. I'm going to sneak around and find the alphas,’ I say.
Alpha Dan and Alpha Greg both run off, and shift into their wolves.
The three packs collide with our opposition, and there are yelps and whimpers, as Hope and I
sneak around through the long grass. A twig snaps behind us, and five wolves growl and snarl at us.
We lunge at them, snapping, and biting until they’re all dead.
‘I can't see any of the alphas. I don't understand,’ I say, confused.
‘Should we check inside the pack house?’ She asks.
‘It’s the only place they could be. You would think they would be out here fighting, with their pack,’ I
point out.
‘They might be cowards like Alpha Tate,’ Hope says.
‘True,’ I agree.
‘I can't believe how beautiful Blood Moon is. You said we would live in a pack house. This is a
medieval castle!’ Hope yells.
‘Pack house, medieval castle; same thing,’ I say, shrugging my shoulders. Hope shakes her head,
in disbelief.
‘You are unbelievable, Maximus,’ she says, smirking. I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her
into me.
‘And you, Hope, are unbelievably beautiful,’ I reply, giving her a fiery kiss.
‘Max!’ She giggles, pushing me away. ‘This isn't the time or place,’ she says, blushing. I sigh.
‘You’re right. We must focus on finding the alphas. After I kill them, I’ll focus on making you moan
all night,’ I say, giving her a wink and cheeky grin.
She shoves me, and smiles, and we creep towards the blue stone wall surrounding the pack
house. I lift her onto my shoulders and she climbs over. I shift, and join her on the other side. We drop
quietly into the bushes and scan the area. There are some warriors patrolling the area, but not many.
We sneak up on them, and quietly kill them, one by one.
Looking into a few windows, there’s no movement inside.
Waving my hand, Hope follows. I know a way to get into the castle, that no one but Alex and
Nathan know about.
We crawl through the garden and come across a well. I move some branches aside to reveal a
wooden door on the ground behind it in a corner.
Opening the door, I climb down. Hope is about to jump down, and I raise my hands and catch her
just in time.

‘This way takes us into the castle,’ I whisper. Holding her nose, Hope quietly follows as we walk
through the smelly tunnel. The odd rat runs past us, squeaking, along the dark tunnel. We stop at a
ladder.
I climb up, and push a stone tile aside. I hoist myself up, and reach for Hope's hand, and pull her
up, and into my chest. She looks around in awe and amazement.
‘This bedroom is incredible,’ she whispers. The walls and floor are stone, and there are red velvet
curtains on the windows. There’s a large four-poster, wooden bed with white drapes, and a golden,
silky cover.
Elegant tapestries, and a stunning banner of a wolf and a lycan decorate the walls.
‘This is our room,’ I say, chuffed with her reaction.
‘No way! This was made for royalty,’ she says.
‘It was,’ I explain, and she looks at me confused.
‘I am a prince, but I prefer to be addressed by my alpha status,’ I explain.
‘That explains why this isn't your typical pack house,’ she says, amazed. Out the window, outside,
all the packs in the distance are fighting.
‘Let's keep going,’ I say.
We open the bedroom door, discreetly sticking our heads out. No one is around and it’s eerily
quiet, walking down the hallway. We enter the great hall, where our footsteps echo.
‘Looking for us?’ A deep voice echoes.
Hope and I are standing back-to-back, when three alphas and a group of warriors enter the hall
from different ends.
