Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

***The Red Moon Pack***

Alpha Mark, Luna Reema and the rest of the pack were gathered to perform the last rite of passage for baby Hera.

The Luna was crying bitterly while the Alpha who looked terribly sad was trying to act strong for his wife. They were almost done when a bright light shone in the palace. Everybody looked at one another in astonishment, then the Alpha spoke up.

"Everybody wait here, I'll go confirm what light that is" He said to the pack

"I'll come with Alpha" Beta Ted spoke up but the Alpha shook his head.

"No, please stay with the Luna" He walked into the house and he saw the great Priestess they had gone to for the baby.

"Priestess, our baby is gone" the Alpha sobbed.

"Please bring your wife and the baby" the Priestess said.

The Alpha went out and came back with his wife and the baby Hera.

"Great Priestess please bring my baby back, please" She knelt in front of the Priestess with the baby in hand.

"Give her to me, she was just sleeping" The Priestess said as she took the baby.

She wore a beautiful bracelet on the baby's hand and she turned to the Alpha.

"Take this other 3 bracelets" The Alpha took the bracelet from her.

"This bracelet must be on her at all times, it will grow with her hand so you don't have to change it, I gave you different colors so it won't drag attention to the baby, when she wants to change the bracelet, she must were the second one before removing the first" She explained and the couples nodded.

"It will hide the Stars and moon until she meets her mate and it's time to fulfill the prophecy" the Priestess explained.

"Our baby is still blue" Luna Reema noted.

"Oh, don't worry about her, I'll take her with me and you will go out back with this baby" A lifeless baby appeared in her right hand and she gave it to the Alpha.

"I'll bring back this baby, in a week time, when you see her you will know" The Priestess explained.

"Great Priestess, we don't understand what's going on" Alpha Mark said.

"We need Demetrius to believe that the baby is dead, so you must bury a baby. I didn't tell you about all this because the Priestess that came with him is called Nyx, she can read minds and also listen to conversations, it's why I have this halo of light around me to serve as a barrier so she can't hear what we a discussing. You must not tell anyone about this, go and bury that child and I will return your child to you in a week" The Priestess disappeared immediately.

After Luna Reema and Alpha Mark had both reflected on what the Priestess said, they went out to meet the pack.

"The goddess came to accept her soul" The Alpha explained and Luna Reema burst into tears. The Pack members were all sad as they loved their Alpha.

***Crescent Pack***

"Great Priestess welcome, the goddess has taken back the gift she gave us and my wife is having a hard time letting him go" Alpha Raymond looked at his wife who clutched the lifeless baby to her chest.

She walked to where Luna Cheryl sat and wore baby Helios a bracelet, though not as fanciful as the one she wore on baby Hera's hands. She touched the baby's forehead, he sneezed and came back to life.

Luna Cheryl screamed for joy but the Priestess immediately held her mouth.

"No one must no about this, you will pack as much as you will need, and leave at dawn to where no one will recognize you, Take this" She handed Alpha Raymond three pairs of the bracelet she wore on baby Helios hands.

"You must live under the radar till he comes of age to fulfill his destiny, give him to me" she said.

"I'll go with him, because he must stay dead to the world, don't worry I'll bring him back as soon as you settle in your new home" The Priestess took the baby from Luna Cheryl and before she could protest the Priestess vanished with baby Helios.

The Alpha announced that baby Helios was buried and he would like to take time to rest with his wife, the Beta was put in charge of the pack for the main time.

At dawn, the Alpha and Luna picked up their already packed load, put them in their car and drove out. They severed every connection and mind link they had with everyone and they went on with hope of seeing baby Helios again.

***A week later***

Alpha Raymond and Luna Cheryl were living in an apartment in Los Angeles, they had decided on the way that living amongst humans was the best way to hide their identity completely.

They had money so they started a restaurant business, they were still working on the finalities, so they can open the restaurant and blend in, in the community.

That afternoon they had gone to the restaurant to put somethings in place, Alpha Raymond who now go by the name Peter, was trying to hang the sign post, while Luna Cheryl who was going by the name Bloom, was showing the delivery men where to keep the oven.

Suddenly, there was a street fight between two boys and one of them shot at the other, but he misfired and the bullet hit a woman who was pushing her son in a stroller.

The boys ran away immediately and Peter (Alpha Raymond) ran to the scene and picked the baby up as the mother was lying in her own blood. His wife ran outside too and took the baby from him when he tried to get help for the woman on the floor, when the police and ambulance arrived, the woman was already dead.

They followed the police to the station and filled out their statements, the police allowed them stay with the baby until a home was found for the baby.

They didn't realize it in the heat of the moment but when they got home, they saw the bracelet and immediately knew it was baby Helios. Bloom (Luna Cheryl) cried tears of joy, her husband hugged them both to his chest and the couples promised to shelter the baby.

***Red Moon Pack***

"After Alpha Raymond announced the death of his son, he hasn't reached out and it's been a week since he left and severed connections with his pack, forcing you to take over his pack as they cannot stay without an Alpha, I hope they are safe" Luna Reema said.

"I'm sure they have good reasons to do that, and the goddess has been helping, we've had more than plenty to eat now that our pack is double the size of what it was and there is peace" The Alpha said.

"Alpha, a woman was at the border with her daughter, I think she's a lone wolf that was attacked by rogues, we are taking her and her daughter to the community clinic" Beta Ted mind linked the Alpha.

Alpha Mark explained everything to his wife and they both rushed down to the clinic. When they got there the woman was already very weak, Beta Ted and some of the elders and some guards were outside.

The Alpha and the Luna entered the ward to see the woman, she held the Luna's hands immediately, please take care of my daughter. Please" She was dead before the Luna could reply.

Luna Reema picked the baby up and saw the bracelet, she smiled and kissed the baby's cheek,

"Welcome home, Hera"
