I Am The Luna

"Well, the likes of you don't deserve to live amongst us, anyway. You should have been long dead Valerie Scott," the man sneers. "You did something to one of our friends when he paid you a visit, didn't you?" One of the men sneers as he steps forward.

My anger bubbles inside of me, wondering if some of these men were those who had broken into my apartment. "You mean the man who drugged me and tried to rape me?" I ask, my voice trembling but not in fear, as some of them are mistaking it for.

"That was to teach you a lesson. None of us would want to fuck a bitch for pleasure. Get it, bitch? He just wanted to show you your place, bitch!" The man throws his head back laughing and my eyes blaze.

"Bitch is perfect for her! Yeah, cus she's a-"

A menacing growl tears through the sky, one that even I don't recognise. My eyes blazing, and it takes me a second to realise it's mine.

"We are people just like you, yet if you kill us, it's ok. If you rape us, it's ok. But if we retaliate, we are the villains, the monsters. We should be hunted and killed and that's ok?! Why?!"

They start advancing on me and I can hear approaching footsteps. Fuck, I was too loud!

Well... I know this is reckless, but... they want to see my wrath, then they'll see it. I am not the doctor who happens to be a werewolf who they were hunting, but Luna to an incredible Alpha, and I will not disappoint him.

Thinking quickly, I grab my skirt, removing my phone and bunching it into it before I tear it right off, making a few of the men snicker. "Looks like the bitch is ready to bend over for us."

Oh, if only Zade heard you... you'd be dead by now.

I shift, grabbing my skirt with my phone in my mouth as I launch myself at them, claws out as I rip through them with no mercy, my aura spreads around me making the ground rumble, and they're thrown to the ground as I tear through several of them.

Blood splatters everywhere, only fuelling me. When I'm done, standing by the door, I look out at the mess of men all thrown to the ground. At least three of them are not going to make it... I leave them lying there, completely blindsided.

I push open the door hearing shouts and shifting back, drop my skirt as I lock the door before I grab my skirt off the floor and wrap it around me like a towel, tearing a strip from the side to wrap around my waist to hold it in place as I run down the hall with my phone in hand.

Get to the main breaker box, switch the lights back on...

I speed up, relieved that this place is pretty empty. I haven't heard from Zade, but I also haven't felt any pain so he must be ok.

'Zade, are you ok?' I ask through the mind-link.

'Yeah, and you?' he sounds breathless.

'Great.'

'Good, get the electricity back up... things are fucked here.'

My stomach churns for Zade to say that... 'Help is on the way. I managed to contact them. I'm sure they are on their way,' I reassure him.

'I can't wait, Baby Girl. I've got to end this now... one way or another. Watch your back.'

I don't know how to reply to that. I'm filled with dread as I pull out my phone, switch airplane mode off and feel relieved to see the messages.

Atticus, Zaia, Sebastian, and Adriana have all replied. 'Help is on its way.'

'Cool. Turn the lights on and get out, Little Mate. Don't return to the main hall.' He's serious...

My heart thumps at his words. What is he planning?

'Take care, I love you. I'm just outside the storeroom.'

'Alright. Love you.'

I glance down the hallway, pressing my ear to the door. 'I love you too, I say. Not hearing anything from inside, I open the door and step inside the storeroom, making my way through it and opening the door to where all the fuse boxes and the main breaker box is located.

Breathing a sigh of relief, I reach up and I'm about to grab hold of the lever.

Suddenly, I sense someone behind me, and my eyes widen.

Fuck.

"This is where your story ends," a voice whispers in my ear. My eyes blaze and my only aim is to get the electricity back on.

No matter what.

I reach for the level just as the man grabs me by the hair...
