Artemis P.O.V
So right now I'm at the border of the Obscura luna pack pondering how I should go in. If I just walk in they're gonna attack me cuz I'm practically a rogue and they'll bring me in their disgusting cells which is just disrespectful... for me ofcourse. But I had it all planned.
I drive my bike to the entrance frantically.
"STOP ROUGE!" I heard someone shout. Suddenly I was surrounded by snarling wolves. I quickly pressed on the brakes not wanting to get thrown in the cells not only for trespassing but for hitting a pack member.
"Please help me! That mad man is trying to kill me!" I said tears falling out of my eyes. I scratched my wrist hoping no one saw. My wrist gets itchy when I lie and that's the only way you'll know.
"How do we know you're not lying?" A blonde middle aged man said looking at me suspiciously.
"Please you have to believe me!!" I said frantically looking around. "Please let me stay here for a few days! I'll give you anything! I don't want to die!" I said crying with my head in my hands. I took acting as a part of my training.
"Ok I'll help you just because my daughter also almost got killed by one of those crazy rouges. I just need to talk with the alpha first. Just come with me." Blondie said.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" I said wiping my tears.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm Blake by the way." Blondie/Blake said holding out his hand.
"Thank you so much Blake!" I said shaking his hand. "I don't know how I can repay you!"
"Oh, it's no biggie. I-" He was cut of by a growl from a not so happy rouge running straight for me. Long story short I took something kinda valuable from him.
"Please help me!" I screamed with tears streaming down my face as I jumped behind Blake.
One of the border patrol guys snapped the rouges neck, killing him. I guess I have to keep the pendant of his dead mate. And before you say, 'that's probably the only thing he has left of her and you took it.' I was gonna give it back. Plus he killed her himself cause she cheated on him with his best friend. Yeah the ultimate betrayal.
I stepped from behind Blake, tears still streaming down my face while I shook slightly.
"Don't worry he won't try to hurt you anymore." Blake said. "Let's sort this out with the alpha. Hopefully he'll understand and then we can get you a room in one of the pack houses." He's so nice I bet he's a great dad now I kinda feel bad for tricking him. Key word- kinda.
I followed Blake down the road towards the pack houses. I waited till we were out of earshot from the border patrol guys before I surprised Blake by walking in front of him then stopped.
"What are you doing?" Blake asked before I quickly hit him in his temple knocking him out. I looked around before I calmly dragged him into the bushes where I found a few clothes that I tore up and used to tie him up and gag his mouth. He'll be back to conscious in about an hour. That's enough time for me.
"Sorry Blake." I said walking out of the trees back on the road. I walked up to the pack houses and entered the one in the middle. I was on the third floor when someone grabbed me making electric shocks run up my arm that made Ria(my wolf) jump.
I stumbled into an office. "What the fu-" I turned around and saw a fuming Alpha Elijah.
"Shit.-" I said. This isn't how I had planned to meet the alpha like this.
Silence.
"Alpha Elijah! I was just on my way to see you!" I said observing the office. Anything to keep me from looking at this sexy snack. 'He smells nice.' I thought.
"Where's my worrior, rouge?" He asked coldly startling me. Firstly, that's a rude way to introduce yourself to someone and second, he's voice is deep and is like silk and velvet combined. Totally unrelated question but have they made clothes with silk and velvet combined? Cause I would so buy it or steal it.
I was so deep in my silks and velvets thought that I didn't notice him waiting for an answer.
"What?" I said looking up into his brown eyes.
'Mate!' Ria yelled. 'No shit sherlock' I said mentally glaring at her
"Shit!" I said. I gotta admit he's hot though...
"Where's my worrior mate?" He asked once again in a softer but still cold tone.
'He called us mate!' Ria said jumping around.
'Ok calm down Godzilla. That doesn't change the fact that we just met him and he's a bitch.' I said to her.
She glared at me. 'Can I have my moment?!?'
'Ok ok fine. Whatever.
"I don't know where he is." I said referring to his question.
He shot me an icy glare. "Ok, I know exactly where he is." I said taking a seat in front the desk.
Silence.
"Oh you're waiting for me to tell you." I said. "That's not important right now. He's fine, knocked out and tied to a tree near the border. But first we need to have a chat... mate." I said stressing the mate part.
"I won't tolerate being disrespected." He said sitting in front of me, in the chair behind the desk.
'Yeah, whatever, I don't care.' I thought I couldn't say that out loud though. He's an alpha it'll ruin his ego and then he'd probably try to kill me.
"Ok so I came to talk to you about the war that's gonna happen between you guys and the Sliver moon pack." I said leaning forward in my seat.
"Why? He's pretty stupid for declaring war against me." He said leaning back in his chair with a smug look on his face. 'Egotistical bitch.' I thought to myself.
"Yeah if I were you I wouldn't be so smug about that " I said. "We think they have formed allies with these creatures who called themselves the Mysticis and I don't know if they are vampires or witches but they are really powerful and move really fast and they were the same bitches that wiped out my pack." I said all in one breath.
"What?" Elijah said.
"I said-" I rolled my eyes and started again before he cut my off.
"I heard what you said."
"Then why did you-" I started before I got cut off again.
"So let me get this straight. These Mysticis guys are working with the Sliver moon pack?"
"Yes." I said slightly irritated by being cut off twice
"And they are going to help them destroy my pack?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"That's what I just said." I said with an annoyed sigh.
"And what makes you so sure about this?" Elijah asked looking at me skeptically.
"Ok are there cameras in here? Or guards out the door. If there are please remove them." I said.
"There aren't any guards out the door. The camera in my office is never on when I'm in it." He said.
"Ok so I work for SOSA. That's a secret agency for supernatural assassins and spys and when we found out about the silver moon pack declaring war on the Obscura Luna pack it was stange so we sent one of our spies to check it out and we found out that the alpha is a coward, sketchy peice of shit and have possibly made alliances with these Mysticis bitches." I whisper.
"So SOSA sent you here to help me fight?" He said leaning forward in his chair with an amused look on his face. 'Ok that's rude and that hurt.'
"No." I said glaring at him. "I came to help you make a plan to fight them."
"I can do that myself." He said leaning back in his chair. 'Can't he just magically fall off?'
"I have seen these creatures in action so I have an idea of what you're up against but if you want to do it yourself that's fine by me. I'll just leave so the Mysticis can tear you to pieces. If you don't mind I have to be on my way." I said angrily getting up and walking to the door.
"You can't leave." He said.
"Excuse me, what?" I asked turning around.
"You can't leave." He repeated standing up. 'Oh he's wearing jeans. I bet he has a nice ass. Wait no stop thinking.'
"And why the hell not?" I asked.
"You're my mate. This pack needs a luna. You have to stay." He says turning towards the ceiling to floor window. 'I was right. He does have a nice ass.'
I quickly shook the thought out of my head. "You're my mate. This pack needs a luna." I said mimicking him. "Listen, I don't have to do anything. So I suggest you let me go."
"Why are you so eager to leave?" He said turning from the window. 'I was enjoying the view.' Ria whined. 'Weren't you sleeping?' I said mentally glaring at her.
"I technically completed my mission plus you guys don't seem to want my help even though I thought you guys were smart. So I'll be on my way back home." I half lied. I need to leave now so I can get a gift for K.C.
'Maybe a stuffed unicorn. She'll like that.' Ria said. 'Finally you said something sensible.' I said. Ria considers K.C. as her pup like I consider her my child. She gets madly possessive when strangers get too close to her.
"Call your boss and tell him you have to stay." Elijah said breaking me out of my thoughts.
"No way plus I have someone I need to get back to." I said. Hurt flashed across his eyes then anger then his face turned blank.
"You're not leaving." He said icily. Knowing it would be useless to argue with or upset a stubborn hot-headed alpha, 1I nod.
"Fine, whatever, I'll stay." I said rolling my eyes. Hearing nothing but silence I look up at him only to see his eyes glazed over telling me he's mind linking someone. After a while a knock came on the door.
"Come in." Elijah said. Two guards came in. "Please show miss..." he trailed off. I looked at him confused. Oh, I didn't tell him my name.
"Artemis. Artemis Victorian." I said. "But everyone calls me Red." I added. Familiarity flashed though his eyes so quick it's almost like I didn't see it.
"Artemis." He repeated. A shiver ran down my spine. "Please show miss Victorian her room."
"This way miss." One of the guards said gently tugging my arm. 'Atleast he's nice. Unlike some of us.' I thought.
I followed the guards up to the second floor where they showed me my room. "So where's the alpha's room?" I questioned. They looked at each other before looking at me.
"If you don't mind me asking I don't want to accidentally walk into forbidden places." I quickly said playing it off.
"The alpha's room is one the third floor. Above your room." One of the guards informed me. I bet he got alot of expensive things in there that I could use as gifts.
I opened the door to the room only to see the guards still standing at the door. "What are you waiting for? The perfect moment to kill me?" I asked sarcastically. Though come to think about it that could be the reason.
"No. The alpha ordered us to guard your door." The guard that replied to my earlier question said. Seriously? He thinks they can stop me if I wanted to escape?
"Fine." I said in amusement before closing the door. I turned around to look at the room. It's way bigger than my room back home but my room is more homey. But I have to admit the room is beautiful. I walked to the balcony window only to see a lock on it.
'Seriously? A lock?' I thought. I took out one of the hair pins I hide in my hair and started picking the lock. You never know when you might need one. I twisted the hair pin around for a while before hearing a faint click. Deciding to wait till tonight when I'm escaping to open the window just incase the guards decided to come check up on me I walked over to the bed and collapsed on it. Taking out my phone I looked at the time to see it's only noon.
'I'll just take a short nap...' I thought already drifting off to sleep.
