Chapter 9

Cherly's POV

After I said my goodbyes to Selena I knew there was a higher chance I might not come home but seeing her surrounded by the pack and family made me happy I knew I was lying to my own daughter but she will understand in the future, that everything I did was for her.

Me and my brother got into a vehicle and left with 2 other vehicles.

After a 5 hour drive we got to a abandoned car park we were surrounded by high walls and trash everywhere, moments after 10 vehicles arrived and surrounded us in a circle, men got out of vehicle and held guns at us until a guy came and lifted his hand high up telling the men to put their guns down.

"where is the girl?" he asked Derek as I stood behind him, I tried to look for a safe spot incase something happens but all I saw were trash,

"I thought we agreed that the girls identity will be hidden till such time" my brother said looking up at him with a growl,

"oh you mean till the alpha king is dead, I am sorry Amigos but that will never happen" the guy said holding a gun towards the ground, my brother tried to attack him until I reminded him

"keep still Derek, we are out numbered today" I told him holding his hands behind his back, he then nodded looking back at me till I let him go of him, then he took a deep breath looking at me one more time before saying

"we had a deal, you take us to the witch who can help my niece and in return your son marries my niece when she's 18" he said walking closer to the guy until the men next to him raised there guns at him, he came back towards me and turned to the man again as he said,

"ah yes the hand in marriage, I am sorry amigo but the alpha king had a better proposition" he winked at him, I could see Derek getting angry by the second as his wolf was about to come out,

I heard gun shots, it was the rest of the pack we told them to keep a distance before we got here, they came firing at the man as his men covered him,

"Fools" the man shouted as he pointed the gun at Derek I jumped in front of him as the bullet hit me, I fell to the ground but before my head could touch the ground I felt Derek catch me, I was carried to a vehicle and driven off.

the last thing I remember was laying down in the back seat of a car as I heard my brother shouting about something, little by little I started to see less and flashes appeared until my eyes closed shut.

Selena's POV

I was on my knees crying as I saw my mother bleeding the men carried her to her bed room, women came in with buckets of water and my grandma and sister stood near the door crying I didn't leave my mother's side until the witch entered the room, she pushed me away and ripped opened my mothers T-shirt she kept a cloth on top of the wound and then commanded

"I need everyone to leave the room besides the Alpha" I nodded at them and they left the room, my uncle locked the room it was only me, him and the witch with my mom.

she started chanting some words but nothing worked she looked and my uncle and kept a cloth on top of her wound,

"the bullet used to kill her is laced with an extreme amount of wolfbane I don't know how long she will live" she said looking down with her hands crossed.

"no, that cant be" I said crying holding my mothers hand. I stopped for a second and remembered something Carol tolled me,

"wait, I can help her right?, I am the white wolf, I can heal her" I asked looking up at the witch with hope, she took a deep breath still looking down

"if you try to heal her at this age there is a chance you can kill yourself during the process" she answered sending a worried look at my uncle,

"I don't care please tell me how do I save her" I asked begging her which an Alpha should never do,

"you will not go through with this and that's finale" my uncle ordered leaving the room, the witch bowed her head and left the room.

It was just me and my mom I sat on the floor holding her hand hoping she would get up but nothing, hours passed still nothing, Carol came in with a plate of food she tried to feed me but I shouted at her ordering her to leave me alone.

I was started falling asleep as I felt something grip my hand lightly, it was my mother she opened her eyes, I wiped my tears and sat on the bed still holding her hand, I then heard a voice so lightly not even my werewolf ears could hear, I leaned against her mouth and she said softly

"I am sorry Selena, it was never my intension to leave you this early, but I am at peace, I am with your father" tears burst out of my eyes and I rubbed the ones on my mothers face but she still continued

"promise me you will do as fate wants you to do, there is good inside of him I was terribly mistaken about him, you must save him before its too late, promise me you will save him" her voice faded and her eyes stood still open, I tried to find her heart beat but I couldn't hear anything.

I ran outside with tears I looked around and there were people all over, I let out a scream so loud it broke the tall mirror which hung at the entrance of the house, I couldn't hold my wolf in I transformed and ran into the woods,

I started to remember everything my mom said to me and all the fun memories I had with her until I stopped at a hill, I looked at the half moon and howled, finally I ran back to the house, I saw that someone had kept me clothes I wore them and went inside, everyone looked down as I walked pass them, my uncle came to me and hugged me tight we both cried until I pulled back and went and stood next to my grandma, she kissed my head and announced to everyone who was here,

"we lost a great Luna today, Luna Cheryl is dead, someone is responsible for her death" I heard everyone gasp and the women there were in tears, my grandma looked at me as I wiped my tears and step forward

"There is someone out there who is responsible for my mothers death and I wont rest till I find them, but all I ask from you'll is your support, my mother's burial will be in 2 days I expect everyone to be there no excuses" I commanded in a deep voice as I left with Carol beside me. I went to my room and started to cry along with Carol, until my grandma came inside and hugged me

"it's ok to cry even if your Alpha, that is what make you a living being on this earth, now come its time" she said tapping my back as Carol gave me tissues to wipe my tears.

we went into my mothers room my uncle and aunt dressed her in a beautiful blue gown and I wiped her face and wounds on her arms and legs, I then closed her eyes and my family half circled her and bowed there head saying all together,

"May her wolf find its way to you" I bowed my head and kissed her forehead as I held back my tears, I went to my room and wore a black dress,

when I went downstairs people were coming inside and going straight into my moms room and coming out sympathizing me, it was the afternoon and 6 vehicles came in, 6 people got out I knew they must be special, I went to the porch as they introduced themselves, they were the 5 alpha's from the other 5 packs,

After the 5 Alpha's went to my moms room a Auntie came in she wore a black skirt and white top and had a black clutch, she wore a diamond earing pair big as ever, she came and hugged me, she then looked from up to down examining every part of my body as she introduced herself

"I am Lucie hale, from the blood moon pack, I knew your mom personally" she said looking at me,

"you were the Alpha Queen before your Nephew" I said knowing who she really is.

she nodded saying

"well seems like I don't need to introduced myself" she said laughing a bit and heading upstairs to my mothers room.

The 5 Alphas came back down and sympathized me and left in the vehicles they came in, but Lucie decided to stay a bit more,

I heard her apologizing to my uncle and telling him that Alpha Jacob couldn't come today cause he was stuck with work but he will come and drop in tomorrow.

My body shivered did this mean I need to hide tomorrow, there was no way I am leaving my mom even if it means I have to fight with the Alpha king.

everyone finally left it was 1 in the morning my uncle told me to go and sleep since tomorrow was going to be a full day, I looked at my mother one more time before I left,

she looked peaceful and she slept with her hands joining, I then left and went to Carol's room I didn't want to sleep alone, I slept next to Carol but I couldn't stop thinking about what was going to happen tomorrow, as I was in a huge thought I fell asleep.
