Third Person POV
Selene had fallen asleep after countless times trying to bust the window bars open. After a few hours, she had no longer cared the silver bars were burning her skin. All she wanted was to run to his side. She tried hitting it with her feet, pushing the damn bars with her bare hands. Pinning her entire body against the bars....nothing worked!
Eight long and excruciating hours had gone by. Her mind was a complete whirl of torment. She was determined, and she was far from giving up. But all her efforts and frustration were beginning to wear her out.
The tears in her eyes kept pouring out, relentlessly staining her cheeks, all the way to her shirt. Her hair sticking to her face, moistened by her tears.
"Fuck!!! Come on!!! Blake, please? You can't do this to me." She let her body fall on her knees, covering her face with the sides of her hands to muffle her cries.

Selene
I sat by the window sill. My face feels rough from the countless tears fresh and old on my cheeks. This stupid knot refuses to leave my throat. I feel a heavy burden and emptiness inside of me.
"I have to do something. I have to get out of here. I need to make sure Blake and Ty are ok. Momma, please help! Goddess please? Carrie!....please..... someone help me get out!" I whisper. My knees bent as I wrapped my arms around them.
The sudden faint sound of my phone suddenly startled me. I raised my head towards it... "My phone!!! Why the fuck didn't I think of my stupid phone!?" I quickly grab it and looked at the screen. It had a notification from James and Caleb.
James where the fuck are you? Already here!
Caleb Hey boss! We're here. Don't see you anywhere! We're still doing this right?
I quickly dialed James' number. It rang twice before he picked up and placed his phone on speaker.
"Hey man! Where are you? We've been out here for over twenty minutes!" He sounded annoyed. Just like me, he hates having to wait.
"There's a problem with that James!"
"Ok! What's the hold-up?"
"Blake locked me in. There are guards by the door. And the windows have silver bars. I need you to help me break out!"
"Yes!!! Operation break Alpha out!" Caleb yells joyfully. He has always liked doing these types of operations. I laugh and quickly get up. I grab my suitcase from the closet, open it, and grab my combat stuff from inside.
Thankfully, Blake hadn't taken these things out. Inside the suitcase, I grabbed my uniform and changed. Placed my belt in. Hiding all my little gadgets inside. Including my daggers, a few tiny pieces that make huge and beautiful explosions, and more. I place my head in a high ponytail and place my shades on. Last, to find where the hell Blake left my katana.
I mind link, James. It's been fifteen minutes since I talked to them. They should have already been here.
"Where the fuck are you? What's taking so long?"
"We had a setback. Almost there!" He sounded tired. Heaving a bit as he gasped for air.
"Fuck... your pack warriors are good. Have you thought maybe we should convince them to help? They could be useful Sel!"
"Shit. You kidding? They are loyal to the bone to Blake! They won't go against his word."
I suddenly hear the growling of my guards as Caleb and James neared.
I quickly went to the door and opened it. They were ready to attack. They could smell the scent of a different pack, sending them quickly into defensive mode to a possible attack.
"Wait!" They all turned. One of the guards stood to block them from me.
"You'll have to get through us before getting to her."
"Guys it's ok. They are with me." I say as they widened their eyes and turn towards me.
"I Uhm, so did I!" I respond.
"Luna!?" A young warrior yells as she stands in front of the pack. She walks swiftly close to me as my eyes widened and my mouth gawked openly.
"We're ready to fight by your side! And we won't take no for an answer."
My eyes tear up as I cover my mouth. "Guys I can't let you do this! It's too risky. You all need to go back home! Please?... go home!" I say out loud and I hear many growls from our pack members.
"We won't take no for an answer Luna! We will stand with you! mind we will help to protect our Alpha... just like he has done everything to protect us!"
Emily makes her way, holding a wrapped item in a red and blue flannel cloth. I glance as she comes close.
"What is this?" I say as she places it before me.
"Luna! I got this from one of the warriors that left with our Alpha. He was the one who told me if you managed to get out, to get help and give you this. I think you will need it."
I unwrapped the fabric and immediately got excited to see the glow of my beautiful baby. In the wrapped cloth, inside, stood my katana. I smiled at her grabbed it and stood before them as they all cheered.
I glanced at Christy who held her hand out and helped me up unto the deck. Our pack went silent, waiting for me to speak.
"I want to thank all of you for being here with me. Most of you are already aware that our Alpha has gone off to rescue my brother Ty. He was taken by our former pack member Jazmin Tanner. But, I am afraid that our alpha is in greater danger than he anticipated. As part of this pack and as a fellow warrior, I ask every one of you willing to fight.... to stand with me. I don't know the outcome of this war, but I do know that the Primord Pack ALWAYS STICKS TOGETHER. SO!!! Without wasting any more precious time.... who will stand and go forth to fight with me..... and protect our alpha?" I yelled my heart out. Tears ran down my cheeks.
The crowd erupted together in cheer. My heart felt mixed as frustration to find Blake safe and my brother alive perturbed my thoughts.
'Primords Primords Primords!'
The pack erupted in unison as I glanced between them yelling our pack name. I had never felt so proud and thankful for this pack.
