Chapter 4

Lunaris stops the car with Jordan's family at a roadside diner, which is usually a great place to find out what's been going on for the past few hours.

They all grab a table and sit down watching the TV on there on a typical Sunday talk show, however the program is interrupted. "Urgent news" followed by the typical music of when bad news will appear.

"We interrupt our programming to inform you of an urgent news, the serial killer responsible for the death of dozens of people was found at the door of the police station investigation the detail is that the suspect was bound, gagged and was unconscious along with him was an envelope bound for the police station with several photos and a possible location of the crime scene. We are live with reporter Kim"

"Good evening Kim, how are the repercussions at the police station?

"Good evening Bruno, as you can see many popular people are uttering swear words, the suspect is giving a statement at this time, we have been informed that the location would be on the Governor Lionel reservation that could arrive any moment now"

"Thank you, Kim, for more details go to our website, we will be back any moment with more information."

" Do you think...." Jordan tries but keeps quiet, not knowing how the situation would be back in the pack""Surely they must have intervened and sent the assassin to the humans." Lunaris commented, shaking his head in denial

" I don't think that was a good idea" Nilce, Jordan's mother states, "The humans will be on the reservation for a long time and may end up discovering the pack buildings and will ask questions.

"The situation is getting complicated, Aunt Luna, I don't know if Logan will be able to handle it." Jordan doubts that his hard-headed friend would change his mind about the one who ran away from classes in high school with him and avoided any too serious subject.

Hours pass and dawn breaks without the conversation between father and son. Logan was out running down the path he walked yesterday with Anamali, with his headset on as the sun was rising and sitting there on a rock and watching the day clear up. Returning after a few hours and spotting near a river, Anamali hid while watching a deer and this time she had a bow in her hand like those warriors in the movies she watched or in the games. Her golden hair was tied back and her green eyes were fixed on the animal, the bow was shot, and the arrow hit the animal, wounding it, it ran hurt and began to chase until she saw it fall to the ground.

"Good hunting" He comments watching her put a dagger in him.

"Hi, there you are, I need to end his suffering, and thank you for the hunt, and we need to show respect to the animal that will serve us as food.

After the two head to the pack with the animal, finding everyone gathered watching a car arrive, Logan recognizes it immediately.

Jake pales, "nothing has changed about her" thought her black hair and eyes, Her lips red from lipstick and that perfume. Long dormant instincts awaken something wild in him. "Mine," her wolf was telling her.

" Jake...my love" She hugs him tight, she could feel tears coming down, it was painful for two soulmates to spend so much time apart

" My love, together at last." He smiles, squeezing his beloved against himself. "My Luna, we all miss you."

As they walk away from each other, she greets her acquaintances and in the distance sees Logan with a girl full of blood and an animal.

" Sorry, I was supposed to take care of you and not allow anything to happen to the heir" Jordan says

" You were my best friend! It was your duty to tell me" Logan says angry

" Logan, he protected you and that is why your mother took you to the human world. And that is why you have more guards around the pack." Anamali says

" I know" He sighs angrily" Let's get the deer ready, skin it..." Logan says and walks off, Mali turns to the alpha and Luna who nods.

"Anamali? Katherina's daughter? She is the guardian of Logan's wolf!" Lunaris counters in surprise" Maybe... leave it alone only time will tell, Jake, we need to talk about the hybrids." Lunaris finishes and smiles

" Before ... we have a private meeting, you know, Luna?" Jake says and the two smile, walking hand in hand to the alpha's house.

Lunaris and Jake met as children, he as the son of the current alpha Johan Muller went to introduce himself to the newcomers, their pack had caught fire, a mysterious fire. The two became friends instantly. They did everything together and discovered everything together, best friends, the two of them and Farkas and Katherina, did everything together and were even in squadron 1. They went out on missions together until the alpha became ill and Jake was trained by his mother Bianca, the Luna to be an alpha. At sixteen, he discovered Lunaris as his mate, they already nurtured love for each other and then married, so Jake would take over his father's position. No one trusted that a teenager would do a good job, the two had to fight hard to achieve respect and not be fooled by any cheaters and interested parties, over the years they were elected the reserve representatives and Fullmoon became the main wolf pack, they worked hard for this, for respect and to show that they could be young and responsible. War came with the news of the pregnancy, he was 27 and his mate was 26, Logan came in good health, however the burden on the small family was too much, the elder wolf on such a small baby with such a great destiny and an even greater burden. The heir came from an ancient prophecy that said about two companions, the guardian and the heiress, the unconsummated love that crossed the barriers of time, he needed to find out who the guardian was, he thought about the newborn Jordan but soon discarded because there was no mark on him. Two years passed, and every day the idea that his friends would be the guardian's parents grew. Until her birth, the elders delivered the baby personally, just like Logan's two years before. Rituals performed with examinations and scar checks and surprise. Anamali was born with the tiny scar in the shape of a wolf, Blackverus pledged to take close care of the guardian, going to live in the pack Jake, Lunaris, Farkas and Katherina promised never to mention the real reason for his coming to the pack.

The war, the invasion and the fight where Lunaris and Katherina put Logan's wolves to sleep and Luna ran away with her baby still crying, it was cold, so she wrapped him in her own sweater as she ran, she could smell blood in the air and her best friend screaming as she faced several enemies who wanted the heir. Luna knew that the ice cream on her face was sweat and tears. She got a ride with a couple of farmworkers on their way home, spent the night, and in the morning with warm dry clothes they were able to continue their journey. Her heart was broken for years, her beloved was so far away that she could not feel him. He saw his baby growing up fast, he participated in various races at school and knew it was because of a great advantage in his genes, but the surprise came with music, dancing and singing.

Jake could only look at his companion in his arms while they looked at the moon, ate some fruit and drank wine. The silence at no time was awkward, there are moments when conversation is not necessary, Lunaris notices her companion's gaze and a familiar sensation runs through her body, the touch on her exposed skin brings goosebumps, kisses on her shoulders going up to her neck makes her close her eyes totally surrender. The couple's lips touch and seek each other as if at any moment the other would disappear. Her beloved was there, and she couldn't and didn't want to think of anything else but their bodies united, his lips on hers and his firm hands walking through her body without any prohibition.

Hours pass with the two of them there loving each other under the moonlight and the stars, but they knew that soon they would be back and thousands of questions should be answered and all of them involved Logan, the heir. Who in turn was angry because he was training with Jordan, he hadn't forgiven him but needed to vent all the anger within him, Anamali was missing, the twins whose names he couldn't remember were there and screamed at each hit.

"You're the best, Logan!" Shouts one of them, while the heir was totally focused, he felt the sweat dripping, but he couldn't stop.

"I know you're an upset man, the friendship I offered you was always real." Jordan says dodging a punch and countering.

"I know, but I'm still mad! Everyone, every person around me lied to me, starting with my mother" He says stopping and sitting down under the tree.

"This conversation can no longer be avoided, you know that" Jordan comments sitting down as they watch the more experienced fight.
