Chapter 12
‘Lucy!’ Luna Hale’s mind-link woke Lucianne from deep sleep.
‘What? What happened, Luna? What?’ Lucianne mind-linked back in a daze as she reached for her
phone to check the time.
2:32 a.m. ‘You’ve got to be kidding me. What the he*l is happening at this hour?!’, Lucianne thought to
herself.
‘Lucy, sorry to wake you but we need you to come over now!
‘What happened? Where’s Juan? Is he okay?’ Lucianne bolted out of bed before putting a tank
top over the sports bra she was sleeping in. Her shorts will have to do. Hale’s mind-links
‘He’s fine. He’s speaking to Alpha Frederick from the Jewel Pack. Please come quick. You need to hear
them out.’
‘I’m coming!
Lucianne didn’t even bother checking her appearance or tying up her hair as she dashed out o f the
room with her phone and took the emergency stairs to the floor above and ran down corridor before she
reached her leaders’ room and knocked on it three times.
Juan opened the door and said, “Come.”
He was worried. That, in itself, was not a good sign. Apart from Juan and Hale, Lucianne recognized
Alpha Frederick, Luna Felicity and Gamma Brighton from the Jewel Pack, all of whom she just met hours
ago at dinner. Luna Felicity looked like she was holding back her tears but the puffiness under her
glistening eyes showed that she had already cried a lot before Lucianne’s arrival.

“What happened?” Lucianne asked, dropping all formalities despite being in the presence of the leaders
from another pack.
Juan explained in a serious tone, “Lucy, there’s been an attack. The Jewel Pack lost eleven out of fifteen
warriors.”
Lucianne’s eyes widened. Then, she calmed herself before asking in an equally serious tone,”
The Beta?”
“He’s one of the four who survived, and the one who delivered the news to Alpha Frederick.”
Juan explained
“How many rogues?”
“At least ten, maybe more.”
“When did the attack start?”
“A little after midnight.”
Lucianne nodded emotionlessly and said, “Then we need to leave now. They’ll attack again before
dawn.”
“Yes, we know, Lucy. Who do you need? I can mind-link the Alphas or Lunas.” Juan asked. This wasn’t
the first time he left the discretion of choosing warriors for battle to Lucianne. She was the best person
for the job since she knew everyone’s capabilities by heart.
Lucianne looked at the wall in front of her like she was going through an invisible list of names as she
spoke, “Gamma Tobias, Alpha Tate, Alpha Zeke, Luna Zelena, Gamma Raden, Luna Lovelace and
Gamma Sylvia. Most of us will be able to take on two at a time. That should be enough.”
“I apologize for this, Gamma Lucianne.” Alpha Frederick said abruptly.
Lucianne tore off her serious expression, and smiled amicably at the guilty-looking man and said, “No,
Alpha. Don’t apologize. You did the right thing to seek help.” 1
She then set her sights on their Gamma, and her confident voice rang in the room, “Gamma Brighton,
you’re coming along. There’s no better practice than one to save your pack. Don’t worry, we won’t let
anything happen to you.”
“Thank you for letting me come along, Gamma Lucianne.” He gladly accepted even before asking for his
Alpha’s permission. There was something in Lucianne’s voice that no one wanted to argue with because
there was assurance of their safety and confidence in a good
SUTan
“May I come along?” Alpha Frederick asked. Lucianne thought he was directing the question t o Juan but
realized that it was her he was asking since Juan was in the bathroom trying to concentrate on mind-
linking the people that they were bringing with them.
Lucianne glanced a worried look at Luna Felicity before she told the Alpha, “Only if your Luna allows it,
Alpha Frederick.” With so many warriors dead, it was no doubt that there was a risk of the rogues killing
the Alpha if he were there. The Luna had just lost so many. It was
r she could endure further worry and heartache should things go sideways
Before her mate could ask, she bravely held back the tears and said in a muffled voice, “Go, Fred. You
must. It’s a duty.”
“I’ll stay with Luna Felicity until you’ve all returned.” Luna Hale assured Alpha Frederick.
“Thank you, Luna Hale.” He said gratefully.

When Juan exited the bathroom at last, he looked at Lucianne and said, “Let’s go.”
“Hey, Lucy! Here!” Hale threw her a scrunchie when she noticed Lucianne didn’t even have time to fix her
hair before she came.
Lucianne caught it with ease. “Thanks, Hale. C’mon, Brighton, Alpha Frederick.”
Juan slammed the elevator button and when a door opened, they hopped into it and reached the ground
floor within seconds. The people Lucianne had asked for were already in the lobby, all looking like they
hopped out of bed and dashed to there without changing clothes. Lucianne tied her hair into a tight bun
as Tobias scanned her from head to toe.
“Don’t look at me like that, Toby. It’s not the first time you’ve seen me like this.” Lucianne said.
He scratched the back of his head uneasily and said, “Yeah, well. I’m still not used to it.”
Juan asked, “Plane tickets?”
Alpha Zeke said, “Done. Take-off in 25 minutes. It’s 15 minutes to the airport from here.”
“I’ve already got us the taxis. They should be here in 2 minutes.” Gamma Sylvia said.
“We’re not driving?” Alpha Frederick asked.
“Parking is a waste of time.” Juan explained simply.
“Taxis are here!” Sylvia exclaimed, and everyone dashed out.
Lucianne then told Benjamin guarding the front door, “Benjamin, if anyone asks, tell them we went to the
Jewel Pack. There’s going to be a rogue attack.”
His eyes widened and he said, “You should really tell the King, your H-”
Before he could finish, Lucianne said, “Yeah, I will when I get in the car. Thanks, Ben!”
called Xandar. It rang but he didn’t pick up. She then sent him a message to tell him where they were
going and promised to give him the details later.
