Chapter 125


    125 After The Battle


    Tia.


    Stacy and I had to prepare to head to Neev in a rush. We could not take much with us so we could travel faster. I


    wasn''t a fan of road travel, but that was the best option. The women were excited, especially after I had assigned ranks


    to them. They took it seriously even though it wasn''t real. They were eager to show what they had, and the fact that we


    would be going up against Regan gave them a new determination. A lot of them had it in for him. I knew if they had the


    opportunity to catch him on a one-on-one, they were bound to kill him. Which exined why the guy lurked in the


    shadows all these years. He was afraid of being caught.


    While we loaded ourselves in the transport, I had to address them again.


    "Ladies, I know we are pumped up for a fight but remember, everyone that is not our side is fair game except for


    Regan. His death will be slow and painful, so we should only injure and capture him!" I said, and they all agreed. Stacy


    looked at me and smiled. She was all geared up in her shorts and tank top. She looked hot and very young too. The


    woman was a hottie. No wonder neither Regan nor Aesop wanted to let go. Every van had a Leader in charge of


    coordinating the women. We were still loading up when I received a call on my cell phone. I answered immediately.


    "Hello," I said.


    "Luna Tia, this is Alpha Mark Winslow of Santa Braee," The voice said. It wasn''t the same voice I spoke to the day


    before, so I was careful.


    "Your voice.." I said, and he chuckled a bit.


    "I have an Alpha that fronts for me," he said, and I was silent because I did not know how to respond to that.


    "I got the documents you sent, and everything checks out. I just have one question?" He said, and I was attentive.


    "Is Regan Adhit Luis Moon?" He asked, and I knew the question was upside down, but it was okay, so I said, "Yes, it


    is."


    "So Luis Moon is Aesop Moon''s half brother?" He asked, and I burst intoughter. I could not believe the ridiculousness


    of what he had just said. I knew it was a bit insensitive of me, but that was a big lie.


    "Ehm, did you do your research?" I asked him, trying hard not tough again.


    "Yes, but I want to know how they are rted," he asked, and I smiled.


    "Well, Luis Moon is his pseudo name. His real name is Tom Regan Adhit. He is from a small town in


    Dome called Tempaah, and he is nowhere rted to the Moons." I said, and I could hear the man


    cursing at the other end.


    "That Weasle," he said, and I was quiet.


    "I flew into Woodw this morning with some men to capture that bastard. Can you lead me to him?"


    he asked, and I sighed.


    "Matter of fact, I am heading to his location now. He is fighting Alpha Aesop in a one-on-one battle for


    the control of the ind. I am going there to make sure he doesn''t cheat." I told him.


    "That is great. Let us meet up. I am currently at the Great Luval. Can we head to the venue together?


    Mind you, we are armed." He said, and I beamed with joy.


    "Any help is good help, but you have to agree to leave him for us to punish," I said, and he was silent


    for a bit.


    "Can I take a part of him?" He asked, and I thought about it.


    "As long as he can live without it, why not," I said, and that was how we struck a deal.


    I told Stacy and the fight club leaders about it. They were ecstatic. We met up with Mark Winslow as


    agreed, and I noticed Oliva was already tripping. Too bad he had a bold mark on his neck that


    screamed ''Hitched'' maybe in another life.


    The trip was long and hard. We travelled all through the night into the morning, and By the time we got


    to the battleground, there was chaos already. I was d we arrived when we did. If


    we hadn''t, Regan would have won.


    MORNING AFTER THE BATTLE


    I woke up in the morning to the sun stinging my eyes. I felt the side of the bed, and it was empty.


    Where was Luke? I sat up gently and looked around. I was naked under the covers, so I looked around


    for my oversized t-shirt and couldn''t find anything. Luke''s bag was in the room, so I got off the bed and


    went to see if there was something I could wear. I did note to Neev with an overnight bag. How


    could I, when we were armed and headed straight to the battle upon arrival. While I checked through


    his things, the images of the fight shed through my mind, making me giddy. I was grateful to the


    goddess for keeping Luke and everyone alive. I was sad about the lives we lost and hoped they find


    their reward in the afterlife.


    When I arrived, the opponents had won. My heart was in my mouth when I thought they had killed my


    husband, and that was why I shot at the wolves like a mad woman. The moment I saw Luke in his wolf


    form, my heart rested, and I was filled with the determination to leave there alive with my family. Alpha


    Winslow and Alpha Aesop did a number on Regan, and he deserved it. I went to the bathroom to


    shower and then wore Luke''s T-shirt and boxers after. I hoped the oversized T- shirts they gave the


    women would suffice because none of us came with extra clothes. We were so excited about the battle


    that we did not think of what we would wear after we shifted.


    The moment I exited the bathroom, Luke was standing and staring at me with a broad grin on his face.


    His eyes were filled with love and gratitude; I was ted to see him. He was alive and well, something I


    feared would be the opposite when I arrived and did not see him. Remembering how I felt at that


    moment, unwanted tears ran down my cheeks. I tried to blink them away, but they won''t stop. I was


    d, and at the same time, the fear that lingered was leaving me. Luke rushed to me and held me.


    cing my head against his chest, I breathed in his scent.


    "Don''t ever die on me, Luke," I said, and he squeezed tightly.


    "I am d you came, Tia. For the first time. I am d you disobeyed me." he said and squeezed


    tighter.


    "You broke all your promises to keep me alive, Tia," he said, kissing the top of my head. " Thank you.


    Thank you so much," he said, and I held him tightly and sobbed. The realisation of what we passed


    through on the battlefield had dawned on me. I did not know if it was luck that that was on our side, but


    I was so thankful that Luke was alive.


    Pulling away from me, he stared into my eyes.


    "I will never give you orders again, Tia. You are free to do as you like within reason as long as it won''t


    harm you or anyone, " he said and wiped away the tears from my cheeks. I nodded, and he smiled. His


    eyes were teary, and I knew he was fighting back the tears too.


    "We finally got him, Luke. We finally caught the bastard." I said, and he nodded and smiled.


    "Yes, darling. We got the bastard." He said and then looked at me in his shirt.


    "I will take you right now to show appreciation, but we have a helicopter to board. There are Helicopters here to


    transport everyone back to Woodw," he said, and I smiled.


    "So what now?" I asked him.


    "What needs to be done. Kirk and Caleb have gone ahead of us. I issued an arrest warrant for all the Alphas that


    backed Regan up and withdrew their military support. We will be sentencing them this evening in the sentencing hall for


    all to see." he said and ced his hand on my shoulders.


    "It is time to take back the ind, Tia," He said, and I smiled at him.


    "I want to be part of the decision-making." I requested.


    "You and Stacy have earned a seat on the council," He said, and I smiled at him.


    "What about the women?" I asked.


    "They are free to join the military and try out for the ranks." He said, and I smiled. I was so happy that some of them


    would have their dreamse true. Luke and I stared at each other for a bit, appreciating that we were alive. I exhaled


    and smiled with love.


    "I love you, Luke. I love you so much." I said not to make him happy but as a confession of my true feelings.


    "I love you too, Tia. I love you more than my life, and it will always be that way for me until the day I take myst


    breath," he said and kissed me.


    We left the hotel room and boarded the helicopter. Alpha Mark Winslow was there deep in conversation with Olivia.


    Stacy and Aesop were there too. Aesop held on to her tightly, and she leaned against him. I hoped she would not leave


    now. They can love each other without obstacles now that she is officially his mate. I wondered if the mark on his neck


    was Stacy''s and Chloe''s or just Chloe''s since it was just on one side.

    "Tia," Stacy said, smiling at me. " We did it. We arrived on time," she said, and I leaned forward and held her hand. She


    touched mine, and words did not need to be spoken between us. A new bond had been created without us knowing it.


    We put on the headphones, and I leaned against my husband while the helicopter lifted into the air.
