A Runt Luna novel Chapter 10

"You know what, fine. Have the runt, but let me warn you, she's a little bitch. " Darren smirked.

Something inside Kole caused him to snap and before he could contain himself he was shifting, and lunging at Darren.

Aurora watched as the two Alphas met in the middle, her stomach lurching as she watched them crash into each other snarling. Not one to like confrontation and wolf battles; Aurora couldn't help but back up. Seeing Darren's beta Ron, and third Walter shift ready to defend their Alpha, the men with Georgia's brother shifted as well. Aurora didn't want this, she didn't want to be apart of this. Scanning the crowd her eyes fell on Alec, and felt a cold chill run through her body at the smirk he was giving her. She knew that look, it was the same look every time he gave her before he hurt her. Panicking, she shifted and ran into the forest.

Kole threw Darren to the ground, relieved to see that the wolf wasn't getting back up. He knew he was defeated. Standing tall, Kole was relieved to see that Darren's men, and his were standing down. Kole won fair and square, Darren was just lucky that he spared his life. Kole felt anxious, and he knew it wasn't him feeling it, it was his mate.

"Where is she?" He asked turning to his sister, to see that his mate was missing from her side.

"I don't know. She was just here." Georgia spoke glancing around. The four of them spun around looking for the Alpha's mate, their soon to be Luna, but no success.

"Alec's missing." Georgia stated. "We have to go."

Knowing her new friend, she was in the woods. Georgia took off in the direction looking for her.

"Kole, there's something you should know." Georgia spoke as they ran. They were getting closer, she knew it. There was snarling coming from ahead.

"What?" Kole demanded.

Georgia didn't have time to explain because they tore into a clearing, and saw a large wolf towering over something, sharp teeth out.

She whimpered as he growled; thinking that he was growling at her. Aurora wanted to disappear. She shied away hoping the ground would swallow her. Her mate was mad, as she expected him to be after discovering that she was not a normal mate, but it still hurt her feelings.

Aurora tried to get up, but the pain in her arm made it so she couldn't walk very well. She turned her head looking to see what became of Alec, only to wish that she hadn't. Two wolves; one black and one brown, circled him attacking him in turns. Alec was a bloody mess, his blond fur hidden by red. Closing her eyes, not wanting to see the wolves end him, like she knew they would. She pushed herself up on wobbly legs and could feel the warmth of her mates fur against her back; him covering her she slowly tried to escape him. She didn't make it far before she was scooped up into human arms.

"Stop struggling." A deep voice commanded freezing her wiggling. "Will you shift back, Mate?" He asked in a softer tone.

Green eyes starred at him, as she listened to what he asked but she made no movement to respond or shift back to her human form. He should have known that she wasn't going to listen to him. She probably was scared out of her mind. The thought of her scared of him, made Kole sick to his stomach. That was the last thing he wanted.

With a huff, he pulled her close to his chest and began walking to Darren's pack home. His thoughts lost in what he was going to do with his little mate, unconsciously petting her in hopes to calm her.

"Do you want me to hold her?" Georgia questioned her soft blue eyes fixed on Aurora's form.
