“Soapy,” Amelia says and hugs me as I walk up. That, at least, is still my sister. “Hunter wants you
behind the warriors.”
“I know and I won’t fight him on that. Where will you be?”
“Up front, with my warriors.” I look at her and unlike most warriors who go into the fight, she’s
wearing armor and carrying a sword.
“I found it in mom’s closet,” she says softly.
“It suits you,” I say to her. She smiles and checks the time.
“We need to get into position.”
I nod and Penny and Jaime nk me as we move to the back of the warriors.
Several warriors nod their heads in greeting. There’s an
anxiousness in the air, but also determination. ric killed their Alpha and therefore their Luna. The
pack wants blood, and they‘ re about to get it.
It’s eerily silent as we wait for the signal to go. I see Amelia raise her sword in the air, letting
everyone know to be ready and the moment it slices through the air, a whistling sound following its
descent, the pack leaps.
More than half of them shift, and we all run hard to get to the

border of ric’s pack. Just before the frontline of Amelia’s pack breaches the border, the howls of
rm go up and the battle begins.
It takes several moments before the battle gets to us and when it does, it’s light, most of ric’s
warriors getting attacked by our warriors. Not only that, but they also have to divide their warriors
into three areas since Dutton is attacking on one side and Hunter on another.
No one gets close to me, Penny and Jaime make sure of it and while I’m jostled around and pulled
between the two while they protect me and keep me out of harm’s way, it isn’t until the warriors in
front of us stop and stand aside that I know that ric has been captured.
When I step forward, I feel Hunter’s relief that I’m safe. I can feel his eyes looking me over for any
signs of injury.
What I see first is Amelia, standing in front of ric who is on his knees. Her chest is heaving from
her own fighting. Hunter and Dutton, both covered in blood and guts, each have one of ric’s arms
and are holding him down on the ground.
I walk up on Amelia’s left side. We’re both right–handed and that will be the hand that we use to give
him the killing blow. When I step up, I realize that my sister is also covered in blood, some of it is
hers. I’m not sure how badly she’s injured, but she’s not showing any weakness at all.
“Alpha ric, you havemitted crimes against my pack. You did knowingly, and without cause,
attack and murder my father, the Alpha, in cold blood. His death caused the death of my mother and
the Luna of the pack. For your crimes, I sentence you to death,” Amelia says, her strong voice
ringing out over the

“Bury the dead. I don’t want their stink drifting into our packnds,” she says to her warriors,
beginning to walk back to her pack.
“Yes, Alpha.”
“I will have breakfast prepared for all who fought for me and all who want to join my pack,” she says,
turning to look at everyone before her eyes finally fall on mine.
“It’s done.”
I nod, and as she walks away, I move to Hunter’s side, needing hisfort.
“Are you hurt? Are you injured in any way?” he asks, worry filling his tone as he looks me over.
“No, but you are. How bad is it?” I ask him, looking him over.
“Not bad. I was mostly worried about you.”
“Our new Gammas kept me very safe,” I tell him, smiling proudly at them. They, however, especially
Jaime, have quite a few scratches and bite marks on them. I’m guessing that Jaime was doing his
best to protect me and Penny.
“Come on, we need to feed my son, and I want a shower. I smell like ric which is ruining my
appetite.”
“Our pack members?” I ask.

“Are all alive. Some are injured and I’m sending them back home right after they eat.”
“Alpha Dutton?” I ask him, watching as he looks at what’s going on around us.
“My pack members are all alive as well, Luna. Thank you for asking. Mine, however, can head
straight home. I’m willing to take your injured too, if they need help, Hunter.”
“Thank you. I think I might have a few who could use help, and I think Amelia’s hospital might be
pretty full.”
They talk as we walk. Up ahead, I see Amelia stop and help one of her warriors who has a bad
injury on his leg. She wraps his arm over her shoulder and helps him to hobble back.
We make it back to her pack and she continues to hold her warrior with one arm, carrying ric’s
head in the other. We’ve just reached the edge of the forest that opens up to the back of the
packhouse when I hear his voice.
“Amelia, what the fuck? You went to war and didn’t tell me?” Alpha Calvin says, looking shocked
and angry.
