The Alpha's Triple Lunas novel Chapter 82

Chapter Eighty-Three – Man on a black horse.

(At the Forbidden Forest)

Gerard stood at the border, checking for sounds of screeches or for burning tree tops. He found none. Surely his sister was here.

He strolled past the landmark and stood few trees away, he could still hear nothing except for trees and growls of wolves.

The war had started, “Anya, are you here? Let’s go back!” he called out. He didn’t want anything to do with this. Why couldn’t she understand?

He went back and climbed his horse, heading deeper into the forest. At a slight sound, he unsheathed his sword and looked for it.

As he came closer to a river bank, he could hear muffling sounds. And slight screeches. He found her.

“You'd have to forgive me, Chan. How can you fight wolves?” he saw her scolding Chan, who was tied, hands, feet and mouth.

“You are not serious” he sighed, dropping down his sword. She looked shocked seeing him there and stomped to him, shaking her head.

“You are not taking me back. See, I got Chan. And I’m getting Margaret” she pointed at him. Chan glared at both of them.

Gerard cleared the way for her and she passed, “It will be wise if no one sees this birds. They know who it belongs too…”.

“I settled that. Our hideout is behind trees and all I do is shoot down arrows. Come on, be my sidekick” she threw him an arrow and bow.

Gerard frowned. Since when was she good at shooting arrows. He found her ‘hideout' which was on a tree branch. An obvious tree branch.

“Just because the wolves don’t climb up to kill you doesn’t mean they haven’t see you?”.

“Who said some didn’t try” she showed him a hole she dug, “I killed them and buried them. I’m a princess, I can handle myself”.

Her brother watched her climb to the branch, she targeted at something and let her arrow go, “Sidekick, go now, that one is after Margaret!”.

Gerard rolled his eyes. What was he doing here? And why should he save her? She’s doing what she wanted to do.

“Do not let this princess repeat herself. Go now!” Anya ordered. His horse came forward and Gerard lifted himself to it.

“Bring her back. And note, the ones attacking her are bad wolfs, the ones protecting her are good!” Anya screamed as her brother ran off.

Margaret heard an instinct scream behind her and she knew that a cavern had been unlocked. The ones belonging to the children.

She let go of the werewolf she had been trying to strangle and threw him into the river bank to buy her some time.

She drove the sword into the wolf before he could pounce on the children. She let the sword stay there for five seconds before drawing it out.

As Scott had told her, Red Mountains warriors had faster healing process so only the worst injuries could kill them.

“Look out!” the children shouted to her. The wolf that she had thrown into the river was charging at her.

An arrow sped into his ear, coming out from the other ear. Margaret searched for who shot it. All archers were at Blue Moon.
