Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0118

Kala POV

I growl at him for blocking my path...burnt oranges and dark chocolate....his scent calls out to me. Not only was |

sensing another alpha entering the battle...| was sensing a mate bond....the weak buzz of the mate connection

informinghe was close by. Unbelievable.

Not only has he entered onto my Father's lands without permission...now he was blocking my path... blocking me

from fighting this monstrous alpha. Stealing my fight.

"Who is that?" Sof the warriors push on my mind-link but I push them out...they need to concentrate on the

task in hand, and so do I.

He was huge, bigger than the beast before me...he was more the size of a bear. A charcoal black grizzly bear, if |

didn't have a beast already before me...I would say he was the monster.

| can't see much else...all | am getting is fur in my face, my wolf tempted to bite into him to show him I can

handle my own fights.

My wolf sidesteps, out from his fur wall he had created in front of her, to face the other alpha again..

But Hector's wolf has the nerve to growl at me, leaping back in front of me. He givesno mind as he launches

a full on attack on this enemy alpha, leavingnow standing by the sidelines...watching my own fight, with me

not in it.

Frustratingly | am not afforded the tto watch, or protest my outrage as a wolf knocksover... pinning my

wolf down to the ground, it's jaws snapping at my throat, tellingto stay down.

So | was wanted alive, the daughter of the Nightshade Reformed Alpha would fetch them a great price, or a

ransom to give up the lands. | don't think so, | wouldn't let Father do that...not my life for our people, not when

they have cso far even in the 4 years whilst | was absent from them.

| push up off the ground biting into the wolf's hind only for Samson now in human form to pull at its tail and

swing it away from me. He shifts back instantly, back to fighting by my side as | keep an eye on

Hector and this other alpha battling for dominance.

What was he doing here, how had he found me...

Anger fuels my wolf's fighting methods as she tries to get back to the alpha wolf only for Hector's wolf to

continue to block us. What was he playing at. These were not his lands....I was Luna here and without our alpha

in battle, | was in charge. Without the link to the Dark Phantom pack running through my veins, | am unable to

mind-link him to tell him to stand down.

I have no choice but to shift.

I shift into my skin form in the middle of a battle field, surrounded by venomous wolves snapping at each other

"Stand down Hector!" | order at him, letting my luna auga roll off me. His wolf stares at the length ofbefore

growling at my order, using his snout to push my behind him.

Chapter 0118

"No Hector, these are my lands, my Father's lands...back down now. This is my fight!" I'm concentrating on

Hector's wolf that | do not hear the sprinting beast behind me, the beast that is using our distraction to take out

the Hector's bear wolf. Hector sees it last minute as he knocksto the ground. I shift mid fall as | surround

myself with fur and extra muscle to cushion myself on impact, I'm instantly back in the throes of battle when |

feel the presence of another alpha wolf join the fight, this ta sandy brown wolf jumping overand backing

up Hector's wolf.

Who the hell was this?

Both wolves attack the beast, both sinking their teeth into his flanks...a whimper of pain surrounds us as Hector

and the new wolf snarl in warning. Alpha Jude...it had to be......

The enemy alpha must call to retreat, as the attacking wolves start to back away...running back into the treelines

that surround the pack grounds.

"Luna Luna do with give chase?" Warriors push on my mind-link, their wolf forms preparing to give chase.

| pause for a moment, not wanting to lose any more of our people, my eyes stuck on the 2 new wolves before

me.

"No, let them go. See to our injured, we need to get them to the medical centre." We still haven't got enough

medical staff, and just looking at the injured that litter the fields...we didn't have enough beds. | hadn't had a

chance to revise provisions since our last deadly attack. Samson shifts beforewhich forcesto shift also, |

can't talk to him without the pack link in place.

"I need you to get the injured to the medical centre, for the dead to be prepared for burial." I need to check on

Father, | could feel he and Alora were safe and well, but he never found the loss of pack members easy, but then

which alpha did..

"I will first check on the alpha house, then | will cto the hospital...| need you to remain there and wait for

me."

"I think we should determine who our guests are first, don't you?" Samson whispers to me, his eyes on the 2

wolves standing watching our conversation. Tongues panting by the side of their mouths as if they were- waiting

for a welcbowl of water and a bloody bone to say thank you. They've just made things a hundred times

worse.

"They can do as they please...but ideally they will leave as they came." | snap before turning and heading

towards the alpha house not caring at this moment in twhether | am followed or not.
