Dark Heart: Blood of the moon.
Chapter Two.
Lucien and Kale arrive home to find it in chaos, the vampires panicked and the human's very nervous.
"Castiel what happened ?" asked the werewolf alpha as he walked into the drawing room with his second.
The vampire lord looks up at him "The entire council bar Gabriel may have been killed".
"What ? How ?" asks Lucien.
"The fay… not Oran, he would never do that… we're thinking that rogue general" replies Lord Castiel.
"Of course Oran wouldn't" says Lucien as he shakes his head "This couldn't come at a worse time my friends… we wolves have trouble of our own and can not help you… I am sorry".
The vampires shake their heads "No we understand and we will aid you once we find that fay bitch" states Lord Balthazar.
Lucien smiles as all the vampires nod at that.
"Thank you all… Kale get the dogs" says Lucien.
"Yes Alpha" replies Kale as he turns around and goes to gather the pack.
"How do you know they are dead ?" asks Lucien.
"We don't yet… Lucifer found a boy who said he had seen it so they took some the army and went to look" replies Lord Castiel.
Lucien nods "I'm sure Oran will help you find the rouge fay".
The vampires all nod.
"So it's bad ?" asks Castiel.
Lucien nods "He's amassed a huge pack from what we hear… and they are heading this way. But we have several large packs with decent alpha's who will unite and fight… that should bring in other packs too. We'll need too stop him before he takes any pack this side of the range".
Lord Castiel nods "That would be Blake's pack then unless some pack moved closer to the Dannath".
"Yes it will be Blake's if we don't stop him and after the meeting we just had I think we can do this… we just have to see what our planner comes up with" grins Lucien.
"As Bal said after we avenge the council we will help anyway we can" says Dain.
"We plan to block the pass… let him and some through then I kill him… so come to the pass when you can" replies Lucien.
All the vampires nod.
"Thank you all again and happy hunting yourselves" says the alpha before going make sure his pack was ready.
Jo stops him on his way to them.
"Lucien… are you coming back ?" she asks.
He smiles softly at his alpha female to be "Yes sweet girl I am… I promise you I will come back for you".
Jo nods and wraps her arms around him as she says "Be careful".
"I will… I would not go but this needs to be done, not just for us… our pack but for all the packs of Midian" replies Lucien as he holds her close.
Jo nods slowly "I know… Kale better look after you I will kick his ass".
Lucien grins and kisses her temple "I have to leave you here or I won't leave… I will be back, look after your family while I'm gone".
Jo smiles "I will".
Lucien kisses her softly then lets go of her and continues on his way to the pack.
He knows Kale will have them gathered outside ready to move out, his boy knows what his alpha wants. He walks out the door to find them all waiting and he smiles.
"We head to a bloody fight… any of you may stay if you wish" he says to them.
"Who is with the Alpha ?" barks Kale.
All the original wolves shift… the newer ones get the idea very quickly and join them.
Lucien nods "To the Dannath pass…" he half growls before he and Kale shift.
Lucien runs… his pack on his heels, his second at his side.
Beau reaches his pack faster than most wolves could… he is the fastest thing on four legs his alpha has ever seen and it is why West sent him.
His alpha makes him rest and catch his breath for a few minutes before he says anything.
"The alpha Lucien is with us… as is the alpha William Stone" starts Beau "They wish you to come access the Dannath pass for an ambush".
West nods "Yes… good idea, may as well use a natural advantage".
"That's what the other alpha's thought too… also they asked if we could any other packs with us… as many as we can actually" finishes Beau.
West nods "I thought they would… I have sent word already… thank you dear boy, rest and I'll get ready to leave".
"Yes Alpha" replies Beau then heads outside to grab something to eat and rest.
West looks to Hunter.
"Let's get ready then Lover" says his boy.
The alpha nods and looks to Billy "Billy boy go ready the others to travel".
"As you wish Alpha" bows the boy and grabs his pants as he leaves.
"Pack light… and don't forget your bow" says West as he starts to gather his weapons.
Hunter rolls his eyes and crawls off the bed "Like I would".
West grins and says "True…".
Hunter walks around the cave naked packing his weapons and a few clothes "Make sure you remember your blades" he jokes.
West smiles more and the knot in his stomach eases a bit… his boy just does that to him. Hunter can calm him when no other can and it is one of the reasons he loves the boy so much.
By the time they are ready the whole pack is armed and ready to move out.
"East to the Dannath pass then" says West.
Hunter takes his hand and they lead their pack to war.
