Prologue

The autumn wind was blowing swiftly over the pine trees the moon was full and glowing bright the whole wood was quiet and at peace. Watching from above on his rocky ledge a grey wolf looked on the moon's light making his coat shine he was a strong wolf not to old and not to young just in the middle, he had a scar going down his left eye he wore it with pride he looked over the forest it's creatures were silent they knew tonight was a bad night to be out on the full moon when the lupun run wild. As the wind went silent his ears perked up at the sound of foot steps coming from behind him quickly turning around three men were coming out from behind the trees, as the wolf walked towards them they bowed on one nee and bowed their heads "Leader Akins the rouges as you said are moving fast their heading straight to the hospital.'' said the tallest of the three "Yes I knew he would come back looking for blood.'' Said Akins he turned to the other two men "Go, to my wife tell her its time.'' The men quickly bowed their heads and took off faster then any human could.

Marla was laying on the hospital bed looking out the window she had a good view of the moon it always made her happy to see it but not today her eyes watered she feared this day the day that should have been a happy occasion when her second child was born but know it was a nightmare and she wished she could have hold on longer but the child had to come. She looked at the baby boy cradled in her arms "Little baby Luke how I wish we could be together.'' Tears streamed down her face as she looked at her innocent little boy sound asleep when not to long ago he was crying her daughter was also crying she had been told a lie and was taken home earlier after she had gotten the news that the baby had died shortly after birth. As she wiped away her tears two men came into the room one a short man her brother David with his short brown hair and muscular arms he gave her a sad look the other men Patrick had his head down he couldn't look her in the eye he to was sad to see his nephew go it made her cry and soon she couldn't stop herself David hugged her giving her some comfort "This is his only chance he'll be killed if he stays here.'' Her crying slowed "I know.'' With a sad sigh she laid the baby down on the bed while she got dressed her brother and Patrick were waiting outside the door keeping an lookout for him, when she was finished she wrapped baby Luke in a blanket she kissed him on the forehead before opening the door and following her body guards too the car.

Akins and Dave were making great speed to the hospital their paws were scrapping the earth of the forest as they made speed trying to cut him and his pack of rogues off before they reached the hospital. They were coming into a clearing when they spotted the gang running wild and savage thanks to the full moon the lupun are more wild and savage during the full moon unless they controlled it on their first full moon. But not these lupuns they allowed the savageness take over and know are it's slaves their eyes glowed a demon red as they growled and snapped at the two wolves before them they circled them snapping and drooling waiting for their leader to give the word to kill and then he stepped out of the circle of wolves he was a big grey wolf his body was covered in scars his face wore the scars of many battles his teeth spilled many innocent lives blood. He smiled an evil smile and grinned showing his teeth " So the great Akins shows himself at last funny I thought you were going to hide from me.'' He said pacing back and forth "Now why would we hide from a waste of shit like you?'' Said Dave snapping at the rogue leader who didn't even flinch "I know why you're here Edward.'' Akins said both he and Edward stared at each other with ice in their eyes teeth showing "Yes I've come for your son and will take his life as you did mine.'' he said growling "That was not my fault your son attacked my daughter and threatened my family.'' Akins said remembering the day when the boy no older then ten went savage when he couldn't control his lupun form he attacked his little girl when she was two he managed to get to her in time but had no chose but to kill the boy who would be a threat to all lupuns if he lived. "I'm sorry about your son but there was no other chose he grew to savage and wouldn't survive the night if I haven't…'' " Shut up you sun of a bitch you killed my son and now I'm going to kill yours .'' he said growling the other wolves around them started to close in one leaped out aiming for Akins but was intercepted by Dave grabbing the wolf in his jaws by the scruff he shook the it sinking his teeth into it's neck it cried in pain as he ripped it's throat out blood dripping down his muzzle to his chest the others were furious and attacked at full force will Edward slipped away off to do his dirty deed. Akins and Dave were fighting for their lives they were out numbered and the savage wolves were more savage then they were thanks to the full moon one by one they would kill or injure another but it didn't stop the wolves that were driven by blood lust Akins had a black wolf penned down in his jaws when he noticed Edward had disappeared "No!'' he howled tearing the penned wolf's neck Dave was fighting two wolves at once " Dave, Edward has gone after Marla and the baby you must go after him.'' He said grabbing another wolf giving him a deadly shake. Dave had one of the two wolves in his mouth the other one was already dying on the ground blood pouring out of his neck " But what about you I cant just leave you here.'' He said reaping the wolf's throat out "You have to that's and order from your Alpha.'' Dave whimpered there was no way he could disobey an Alpha's orders he ran past his leader without a second glance and followed Edwards scent leaving his leader to the rouge wolves.

David was driving as fast as he could they had to make it before Edward found them , sitting in the back Marla was cradling the baby keeping him covered with the blanket. "Were almost there.'' He said turning and heading for the Mason house as he turned again something appeared in front of the road it was a wolf with red eyes but just as he was about to hit it the wolf was rammed by another wolf. David lost control of the wheel Marla hanging on to the baby as tightly as she could to her chest as David finally managed to get the car under control as he stopped to look back a black and brown wolf appeared in front of them it was Dave "We must hurry that was Edward I managed to get him out of the way but you must hurry.'' He said turning around heading back the way he came but Marla stopped him sticking her head out the window " Where's Akins?'' she asked Dave turned " Fighting know go Edward won't stay down long.'' He said running into the woods as the car started again and drove off.

Akins was exhausted and bloody he had deep cuts all over his body his body was covered in both rouge blood and his blood the rouges kept attacking and he wouldn't stop fighting until something attacked him from behind he cried in pain as a pair of jaws locked onto his neck his paws slashed at the air as he gasped for breath as an icy voice said "I might not get your son yet but I will get you.'' Edward said his left side was covered in blood from where Dave tacked him on the road the rogue fled but would take out his frustration out on Akins as he crushed down harder he could fell the leader's life seeping out of his body with every desperate gasp for air. "You'll never get him he'll always be ….protected by the ….pack.'' Akins managed to say before he gave his last breath. Edward gave a howl of triumph before he and his rogues fled the scene just as Dave appeared.

He was horrified at what he saw Akins's body was covered with blood his throat was pouring out blood as he lay there dying " No leader you can't be.'' He said tears streaming down his face the "Dave don't cry for me we've won he didn't get my boy.'' The leader said weakly his strength fading "Akins don't worry I'll get help you'll be fine.'' He said about to run off."No don't it'll do no good I'm not going to make it.'' He said his breathing starting to slow "Yes you will you're a fighter you can pull through I know you can.'' Dave said trying to help Akins up "No I can't too much of my blood has been spilled.'' He said his eyes closing "No you can't give up you can't I wont let you.'' Dave said franticly trying to get the leader up "Dave my good friend I have no regrets but one …'' he said his voice breaking Dave was crying and whimpering his tail between his legs "That I didn't get to see my little boy one last time.'' " Oh, leader you can see him once more he's safe by know he's safe in the arms of the Masons.'' He said but the leader was already losing life "Please leader don't die I love you like a brother you helped me master my inure lupun I owe you so much.'' He whimpered "Then please let me go with pride in knowing that my son is safe and that all of you are safe.'' Dave cried harder "Good bye my friend and tell Marla that I love her and tell my little girl to be good and watch over her mother.'' And with his last dyeing wish Akins passed on. Dave we all the grief in the world howled like the wind in a heavy storm at the human body lying at his feet.

David pulled into the drive way a moving truck was already there in the drive way about to pull out "Marla its time do you want me too or do…'' "No he's my son I'll do it.'' She said wiping away one last tear before stepping out of the car she and the others heard Dave's howl she knew what had happened to her love she knew she had to be strong for Akins and baby Luke. She walked up the steps leading to the door she rang the door bell she waited a few minutes before the door was opened and a young women in her thirties came out " Oh, Marla we were afraid you wouldn't make it.'' She said inviting her in while David and Patrick guarded the door "I must hurry or they might find him.'' She said giving Luke to her "Yes… but I know this is hard for you and I promise I'll give him a good life.'' she said rocking him gently "Thank you.'' Was all Marla could say wiping a tear away "Would you like a few minutes to say good bye?'' she said "No if I don't leave him know I never will.'' She said pulling out something silver it was a silver chain with a wolf pendant "Here my last gift to you. "She said placing it around his neck "So that you'll always fell the presents of your pack.'' And with one kiss to the forehead she left him. As the car pulled out of the drive way Marla looked back and saw the moving truck leave with her son in the car right behind it.
