Stronger by Ang Chris

Chapter 45 

He would’ve shifted back and that meant breaking more bones, I didn’t bother tracking him, he wouldn’t get far. 

He knew that too. I could see his fire right now; he wasn’t bothering to hide. He wanted to negotiate a surrender, he didn’t want to die, or he was drawing me in. 

I had Luna Lillianna head west so that if he had a trapped planned she wouldn’t get caught. I had a flare ready to light to signal her to go. 

I had asked Beck from the Waxing Pride to hold off with a bow. Wolves typically preferred hand to hand combat as it was more honorable and it required more strength. 

Having him follow behind with a bow and arrows wasn’t entirely ideal in combat but I didn’t like anything to do with cat and mouse chase they had led us on. 

1 headed down from my perch I had climbed to watch him. All I had to do was get the information and leave him to die. 

I walked through the woods keeping my feet silent only on the dry floor. I watched the roots and I moved in on my target. 

He was bloody and wheezing. Battered and bruised and an inch from death. He had so little time left. 

“I’m alone,” His raspy and breathless sounds crawled and my morality, “I can’t go home or ask for help,” 

“If you try and kill me I will burn you alive,” I warned. 

The laugh that followed would probably haunt me for the rest of my life. The way I heard the blood gurgling inside him. 

“They’ll kill me for failing, or worse,” He managed to get out. 

“Then why stay there,” 

“They’ll kill me for leaving,” he chuckled again the sickening sound gumming up my mind. 

“Why am I here. You knew I’d come,” 

“I’m not sure I should say this. But I know that I’m dead no matter what. I suppose that when we go we all want a clean conscience just in case,” He confessed. 

“The Sigma your alpha killed was the elder brother of my Alpha. Now he wants raze your pack to the ground,” he 

spoke 

“What are they going to do,” I pressed finally stepping into the light. 

“I don’t know,”

That was all I needed. I tumed hind libedad back to the camp and sent up the flare. I had to get back and prepare f whatever they were planning. 

Lilianna had to leave. They wanted us viced doc revenge and in wolves that was potent motivation. We felt everythi more than humans anger it was curduul innawed dought. 

I made my way back as quickly as i could. 

“We need to go home everyone. They wannown that still they want. Which means we now need to defend,” I show up everything I could find.. 

“War,” the Luna gasped. 

“Personal too. I do not know what they wish to ledbed Imaging everything is at risk,” I huffed zipping up pack. 

“It’s time to go home,” She shifted into her wolf shreddatingneticthes. 

Me and Beck did the same. We were at war….. 

“Stop it!” I giggled gasping to catch my breath. 

“Mmni No, Grayson continued to attack my n*eck with soft tickling kisees as krieked and laughed trying to roll 

from him. 

“Stop!” I laughed as ge tickled my sides. “Aaah!! 

Then the knock came at the door. 

(Grayson had sensed my worried mind all day and this morning when the sun censoappitter the surety of his arms. 

ocfift gouged my mind again. 

That was when he began to run his finger up and down my b*dy. And whisper in mycetow I should go back to 

tontice. 

When I had asked him what or else meant he instigated the onslaught of tickling thh hhd bhseddidit fear from me 

fromme 

Moond knew the answer to the question that was lingering in my mind… 

Ifscomoond had dared to come into our home unannounced and they hnd even come to nur beddooont three was no 

“Menon, man has returned,” Matt called from the other side of the door.. 

111 called zipping Grayson arm the had clenched on me. 

Teamed to speak to you,”

I looked over at him, his face now gray and mane like. I gently ran my fingers over it the decision I had made to keep the likelyhood of us bearing a child a set seemed so stupid and naive. 

“We will be down in five minutes Mart. I need you to leave the house.” 1 commanded. 

He was shocked at my requesting I bet. But I didn’t want them to hear or see what was about to take place. 

When I heard the faint click of the door in our entry sand and paced gathering the courage to admit my lie. 

“Do not worry we will not lose.” He guessed at the ammery that controlled my actions. 

“Grayson.” I crawled back into bed and placed my hands godly on his chest and not meeting his eyes as tears began 

prickling my vision. 

“I lied to you,” I breathed. “I–I had a dream before our bunting and the night of the fever dream. I have dreamt of 

pups….” 

His warmth left my hands and the sob escaped me. 

“Why?” He kept his voice calm but his knuckles cracked as they went witte. 

“I was scared we weren’t ready,” 

“You should have said-!” He held himself back 

“You know and I know if I thought this threat was more I would have said something right away,” I sniffled. I felt like a naive imbecile way to optimistic about the world. 

He loosened slightly and walked back to me tilting my head up to look at him. “No more semets,” 

“I promise.” I grabbed him and wrapped my legs around him, his l*ps pressing into my n*eck 

When we separated I had no fears, this time nothing was between us. We gut dressed and wallbed down together. 

We walked downstairs after getting dressed and Matt and Elizabeth were waiting for us.. 

“Luna I assure you that this will be dealt with swiftly,” Elizabeth spoke following behind me 

I don’t think everyone would be this on edge if it was something that we could handle swiftly. I know she wanted me to have faith in our warriors and I do, but I don’t want things sugarcoated. 

When we entered the keep I was thankful to the early rise if the people had seen the warriors the way they were on guard and the distress of the inside. think mass panic would have been the pack’s only option. 

I entered the medic bay and Brian was panting between gulps of water. 

“Are you alright?” I asked as I entered the room. 

“Alpha, Luna,” Brain bowed his head.

“He’s exhausted because he ran here without sleeping, but he’s alright, a little dehydrated but alright,” Aarron sighed as he started an LV of fis 

“Alpha they are from the pack we thought. They want war, the sigma you killed was the brother of their alpha and be wants take everything you hold dear.” Brian told Grayson the worst thing I could think of. 

The chill 

down my spine made 

tum away from them all for 

We have no choice now. We were no longer growing, we’re now being forged.
