Luna blinked softly listening to the soft thumping of the stereo as she stared at the part she was installing. The thing she was installing was a new piece of equipment from Redview County, it is called ESF, or Electrostatic Field. Also, earlier she had installed another machine dubbed Shockwave to keep the cops at bay. She was glad that Wolf had connections in many places were street racing was prominent, saved her time.

As the part slid into its designated spot she breathed a breathed out in relief. The little light on the part flashed indicating it connected to the correct circuits and was ready to use. She then backed away to admire her work. It was short-lived when her phone rang loudly in the garage.

"Seriously? I don't have time for that," Luna got up popping her knees and picked up the phone. "Hello?"

" 'Ello? Luna?" An older voice spoke formally. "If it is you..."

"Daddy?" Luna tested. "Yeah it's me."

"Happy birthday, Wolf gave me your number."

"He did now, did he?" Luna shrugged. "It's good to hear from you but is something wrong?"

A soft mocking laugh echoed through the phone. Luna tensed and narrowed her eyes dangerously, "who are you? And what have you done with my dad?"

The new man on the other line 'tsked', "Luna, when are you going to realise that I'm taking you down," the voice sighed. "I didn't want it to come to this, but now your family isn't safe."

Luna slammed her hand on her tool cart causing it to collapse. "Leave my family alone, I left them to avoid something like this!" Wailing Luna kicked the broken cart scattering the tools. "All of this is your fault Allan, I hate you! I love Wolf, I hate you... I hate you..."

Through the phone she heard a gasp and her Dad's voice quietly, "Allan... I... Told you, from what I can infer is that you left her..."

Luna sunk to the ground surrounded by the scattered tools, "Allan, leave them alone. This is between you, Wolf and I. I'm sorry but you broke me, for your own devices." She heard his soft grunt and continued, "I loved you... You didn't care for me.

So this is war, real war, never mess with someone's family. Allan finally spoke, "then in a week's time I will see you I Carbon canyon. And I'm letting your father go." Luna hummed in agreement, "okay, give him my number and never, ever go near him again, or I'll kill you!"

She quickly clicked the end call button and placed the cell phone in her pocket and leaned over and began to collect the scattered wrenches. As she did, the door opened and Wolf walked in and noticed the disaster. He wordlessly approached Luna and helped her.

"What happened, Dear?" Luna flinched at the word, it was odd being called something like that, "Allan had... He had taken my dad as a hostage..."

Wolf growled but worked on fixing the tool cart that had collapsed. He tightened the bolts and set it back up straight. He saw Luna staring at a set of wrenches in front of her, but she made no move to grab it, luckily he took the liberty of picking it up.

"Luna, it's okay. Let's clean this up and get some coffee."

Luna snorted softly, "tea."

Wolf shook his head, "coffee."

She got up and pushed Wolf slightly, "tea, coffee stains your teeth."

Wolf steadied himself and laughed, she was right, but his teeth were not at all stained. He had an image to keep up and that meant even the smallest things had to be corrected. Luna smiled, her teeth were white like his and straighter than his, due to the help of braces at age 13. Tea loving Brit, and that was probably the reason her teeth stayed clean.

"Stop staring at my teeth, my eyes are up here or you can look a little lower and have a look," Luna smirked. "But I wouldn't recommend that because then I won't have a fiancé anymore."

Wolf blanched at the hidden threat and turned away from Luna. And that caused Luna to move from her place to in front of him and poke his nose.

"I won't hurt you at all," Luna paused seeing him looking at her strangely. "I need you around, you're the only one who'll stay."

Wolf pulled her against himself and sighed into her hair, "alright, alright I'm not leaving. I'm marrying you, right?"

"Right."

Luna smiled and wrapped her arms around Wolf tightly, he allowed her to do so as to not upset his wife. She was already upset with Allan, and Wolf would rather be on her good side.

"Wolf? Have you heard of the rumors from Tri-City?" Luna asked softly.

"Who hasn't, but now's not the time to dwell on that. We need to eat and get ready for your race." Wolf murmured into Luna's ear huskily.

Luna pouted slightly, "but... It's still a week away..."

"Luna. You shouldn't just waste this week. Now, let's get some food," Wolf pulled away. "What would you want, Italian, English or whatever."

"Why not some Swedish Meatballs!" She couldn't contain herself.

Wolf shrugged and started walking towards the door luring Luna behind him and to their kitchen to prepare their meal. However, they maybe trying to act normal but both knew they were going to face their enemy and it would tear many things apart. Maybe each other as well, and they were afraid of that.

Allan slammed the phone against the table shattering the screen, yet it buzzed with a text. Luna.

"Read this carefully, I want my car back. Richard, remember him right? Yeah, well my brother is coming to get it and if you so much as make any resistance he will not hesitate to kill you." Allan froze, Luna was warning him? "Don't take this as a form of me caring. I want to kill you myself. Oh and just so you know, if you don't die in the canyon you will be banished from Palmont. Not leaving will involve Wolf's new friends killing you."

Allan looked surprise, that man actually made friends. He was such an ass to so many people, and somehow he made friends. So Allan texted back with some difficulty. "Friends? He actually made friends. Luna, whatever friends he made are probably some rich asses."

After sending that he waited for a message from his enemy, "funny, Wolf can make friends. And they are the Blacklist, your old "friends" from Rockport. I've kind of made friends with many of them. My favorite chaps are Baron, Jewels, Izzy, and even rough and tough Razor. I'm sure they would love to see you again, arse."

Allan sat there shocked, how did they even get out of prison? And Razor was one of Luna and Wolf's new friends. Something was up and he finally had a feeling if dread creep up in his heart. Locking his phone he slammed his fist on the table's surface.

Not even twenty minutes after his text war with Luna the garage door opened and in walked her eldest brother, Richard.

"I'm here for the car," as he spoke the keys came flying through the air at him.

Richard quietly got into the Aston and turned it on. He drove out the garage and closed it using the garage opener in the car.

"Damn it..."

Luna sighed at the mess in the kitchen she and Wolf had made. There was some gravy on the ceiling, and some meatballs on the stove. Wolf licked his lips clean of the gravy, "not exactly what I was expecting."

Luna giggled and picked up a meatball from the stove and ate it. She looked back at Wolf who was cleaning his face with a clean rag, he growled when he found sauce had gotten in his hair. Luna quickly started to help him clean his dark hair of the gravy. As adorable as it was Luna couldn't help but think that this had ruined their lunch.

"I'm sorry, Dear," Wolf murmured. "I didn't expect for that to explode like that."

"Hush, let's get this gravy out of your hair and deal with some of the cuts and bruises you got," She hushed him quietly. "I'll salvage what's left of the meal and make some more."

Wolf leaned towards Luna's touch as she softly cleaned as much of the gravy out of his hair as humanly possible, "you'll have to take a shower, hon'. You are way to covered in this stuff for me to clean all of it."

Wolf turned slightly and grabbed Luna's face softly. He grinned and pecked her lips before pulling himself away from her and leaving the kitchen. Luna shook her head and began to salvage, clean, and cook their lunch once more.

"Never ever letting him cook again, he needs to stick to driving."

Luna smiled softly and thought about their relationship in the past. Sure, it was not always smooth but he always had her best interests in his heart.

"Luna? Where are you?"

"Over here Wolf, I made some cookies."

"Cookies?" Wolf didn't know she could actually do that.

Luna walked out of the kitchen holding a plate of a dozen perfect little chocolate chip cookies, "see? Cookies."

Wolf smirked and took one while she watched very carefully with a deep red blush covering her pale face. He ate the pastry and it tasted like no other chocolate chip cookie, Luna's were the best he tasted by far. However, he wanted to mess with her and decided to pretend they weren't really that great.

"They're okay."

Luna's face fell slightly, "only o-okay?"

Wolf nodded and waited if Luna would say anything back, but instead she ran into the kitchen and left the cookies on the counter before sliding to the ground. She started crying and that tugged on Wolf's heart.

"Luna... I was joking," Wolf walked into the kitchen and sat next to Luna before pulling her on his lap. "They are the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever tasted."

Luna sniffled softly, "r-really?"

Wolf nodded and held her close, she was a tad too sensitive for his humor. Luna wasn't too strong, and she needed his help so much he had her live with him. She was bright in his dull house and he loved every moment she was around. Not only could she race like a pro, she was his and his alone.

"I'm very sorry, Luna," Wolf kissed her temple softly. "I love you my little racer, now baker..."

Luna blinked and felt two arms wrap around her. He had finished with his shower and he focused on the finished food.

"Good job," Wolf kissed her hair. "It looks great."

Luna nodded she had already eaten and grabbed the plate to give it to Wolf. He accepted it and took it to the table. Wolf grinned and sat at the table beginning to eat the food. Luna watched and lifted herself on the counter. She hummed softly, causing Wolf to chuckle softly around his food.

The phone rang and Luna picked up the corded phone, "hello?"

"Show time, you need money and we found some races," the voice on the end cheered.

"Alright Baron, we'll come once Wolf finishes his..." Luna paused. "Oh we are coming."

Wolf had finished his lunch and was grabbing both of their keys, "you'll need this."

She grabbed the keys and hung up the phone. Luna licked her lips and hopped of the counter and adjusted her flats.

"Let's go."

A/N: Oh my goodness, what a way to come back. No racing... But I'm glad I'm back I got some inspiration from a fellow author NOS junkie, so thank you for that. My inspiration came from reading her new chapters of her two stories, keep up the good work with those. Anyways, finally I'm out of school and ready to get on my game and start writing this story again. Until next time, Ciao!
