    And of course, it is Hannah and her little band of bitches.


    “What is it this time, Hannah?” I asked.


    Not wanting to shift back to my human form, because I stood a better chance like this.


    “I heard you are going to the ball hosted by the royal family. Do you really think you are fit to be the


    queen, the Luna of all Luna’s, if you are unfit to be the Luna of our pack?” Hannah scoffed.


    I should have known it was her jealousy again. As I heard that David had told her he wanted to have


    her as his chosen mate. However, Hannah did not want toplete the mating process. Because she


    wanted to be unmated for the prince’s ball, hoping she would either be his second chance mate or his


    chosen mate, fully delusional that she had all it took to be the next Queen.


    While I was not looking forward to this event, and I knew the Prince would never choose me. I did know


    that the royal family is seen as kind and fair. I imagine the future queen has to possess those same


    qualities, meaning it could never be Hannah. The smart thing was to keep my mouth shut. Not egg her


    on more. Shame, that I wasn’t wise, I was stubborn and I would never let anyone get away with


    offending me.

    “You’ve got a lot of lips for someone who the Moon Goddess herself deemed barely worthy of an


    Omega. You think the royal family won’t see you for the garbage you are?”


    In an instant, all five of them were on me, head–butting me and biting me. Scratching me with their


    paws. I tried hitting them back with my paws, but they were all over me and I could not defend myself


    sufficiently.


    My body grew limp, but they didn’t stop. Their growls and snaps told me I was about to get more


    beating.


    “What the hell do you think you are? Doing five against one?” An unfamiliar voice boomed through the


    forest.


    I looked up to see someone wearing the royal sigil on his jacket.


    Everyone shifted back to their human forms. Awkward tension filled the. air. I was the only one who


    brought my clothes with me. So I quickly got dressed again.


    Ignoring the royal sigil, either out of pure stupidity Hannah still bucked naked in front of the man.


    or pure arrogance,


    “F*ck off! Who do you think you are? Even if you are a servant of the royal family, you have no right to


    interfere with our pack business.” Hannah warned the man.

    “No wolf should deem themselves worthy enough to attack a single wolf in a group. Honestly, I don’t


    know if I am praying to the Moon Goddess that you are mated, so you won’te to the royal ball. Or


    to pray you are unmated to spare other wolves from having a mate as horrendous as you are.” He


    scoffed.


    The authority in his voice was not that of a low–rank wolf. In fact, it terrified Hannah. She faded away


    with her minions quickly.


    “Are you okay?” He walked to me and helped me up, his eyes focused on me with kindness.


    “I think so…” Gasping in pain, I slowly rose to my feet.


    “Are you sure?” He asked, worries visible in his eyes.


    “Yes” The next second, I stumbled and fell back to the ground.


    “No, you are not.” He chuckled, “Come on, let me walk you home.”


    “Thank you…Um…” I stammered.


    “Call me Dillion.” He introduced himself, holding me up and walking me out of the forest.

    “Nice to meet you. Dillion. I’m A. Thank you for saving me back there.” I smiled.


    “No a big deal. As a return, would you please tell me how to get to Alpha Phillip? I am here to hand


    deliver the invitation for the Prince’s ball.” He asked.


    “No problem. It’s just a few blocks ahead.” I replied.


    “And I know this is an offensive question in most cases, but I don’t see a mark on you. And you seem


    to be of age. Are you unmated or have you notpleted the mating process yet?”


    There was no malice in his questions. I could tell that from his gentle. voice.


    “I have been rejected by my mate. So I won’t bepleting a mating process ever.” I answered


    immediately cursing myself.


    Always speaking my mind had put me in trouble before. That is why some of the pack members believe


    me to be unfit as a Luna. They want someone poised and gentle, and Hannah does a far better job


    pretending she is than I do.


    “Never say never. “Dillion winked and handed me the invitation.

    I epted it with a bright smile, not for the reason he might think. I was not excited to meet this Prince.


    But going to a fancy ball where I have to overdress at least present me with a small break from the


    bullying and pain. It might be a good getaway.


    I think I like Dillion. He seemed to be very down–to–earth. He reminded me of my great–uncle


    Nichs. Funny, spontaneous but fair. When he walked me home, we chatted a little about the


    BloodMoon pack. He asked me how I had been treated here. No wonder he would do that after seeing


    all the bruises on my body when saving me from the five pack members. He picked up on most of the


    pack members whispering on our way to the packhouse as well.


    I didn’t tell him anything. It was still not worth the trouble that woulde from revealing this.


    “Sis, I am worried. Where are you?” Daniel sounded agitated, so I excused myself to Dillion and


    mindlinked my brother back.


    “Ran into Hannah but we got interrupted by a messenger of the royal family. I’m walking him over to the


    packhouse and will be home soon.”


    “You’re close to your family. I take it. Would you ever be able to move to a different pack for a chosen


    or second chance mate?” Dillion asked me.


    If it wasn’t for the beautiful intricate mark on his neck I would think he was flirting with me. Maybe he


    was just being nice, making me aware of

    the fact that I can find another mate. Or maybe he wanted to see if I had honest intentions ining to


    the ball. Either way. I did not know him well enough to let him in on my ns or feelings.


    “Part of being a wolf is the potential of needing to move to a new pack. I always know and I still do.” I


    gave the most nonmittal answer I could think of before telling him the exact location of the


    packhouse and saying my goodbyes.

    Coming home indeed exhausted thest bit of my energy.


    My mother gasped the second I opened the front door, Kate and her mate ran to catch me, to stop me


    from falling over. Dad was growling about to shift when Daniel stopped him.


    “This is what you allow to happen. She tried to protect all of us, but this is what you’re letting them get


    away with?!”


    Daniel has never screamed at either one of our parents, I was about to tell him not to, but the second I


    opened my mouth, ckness overtook


    1. me.
