Bronx's POV
As soon as my guard Tyree told me an omega was trying to get in my suite, I left the party and rushed upstairs. My wolf, Saint, urged me to hurry.
“Something’s wrong. We need to get to her now,” he growls.
I don’t have any pack secrets in the suite but that doesn't mean I want a stranger going in without my permission. As we turn the corner, we see a scrawny little girl at the end of the hall struggling to push open the heavy door of my suite.
The scent of fresh rain and lilacs wafts in the air, somehow making me feel less angry.
The girl looks up at us from under her baseball cap when Tyree yells at her. I can’t see her face from the shadow of the hat, but I don’t need to. I’m immediately drawn to her. My heart almost skips a beat.
“Mate,” Saint cries out, taking over control of my body. He strides over and roughly pushes her against the door. I feel my fangs extending as I deeply breathe in her scent.
“Saint, don’t you DARE mark her,” I warn, pulling on his consciousness, trying to regain control. He growls, but pulls back slightly.
At that moment all Hell breaks loose. Saint immediately acts to protect his newly found mate, resulting in the Silver Moon Luna ending up with a broken wrist and the drunk Alpha getting punched by one of his own people. My pack members put themselves in the middle to prevent me from attacking someone.
During the commotion, I feel a small tap on my arm and a sweet little voice whisper, “Help.”
I turn to see the girl looking up at me. The color of her eyes instantly shocks me. They’re as purple as UV lights. Her hair is an odd sparkly gray color. I feel a pang of pain when I notice how sickly gaunt and pale she is. As I take in her features, her eyes roll back in her head and she passes out.
A familiar scent hits my nose as I catch her falling body. Blood. My hands and the door behind her are covered in it. Saint didn’t claw her. What the Hell happened?
“Hospital wing! NOW!” I roared, stopping the Silver Moon pack members in their tracks.

"What are we going to do, Bronx?" Lenora asks. She is sitting in the back of the SUV holding my mate on her lap during a fuel stop. She wipes some stray hairs out of Kas's sleeping face. I take the last drag of my cigarette and stamp it out on the ground.
"I don't know, but we’ll figure it out. We’re her family now. She's obviously not the future Luna we were expecting but I don't care. She's mine and no one will ever hurt her again."
Lenora and I switch places and I finally get to hold my mate in my arms. I breathe in her amazing fresh rain and lilac scent. Having her close to me gives me a sense of calm I have not felt in years, if ever. I have waited for so long to find her. I almost lost hope. I will treasure her for the rest of our lives.
“You gonna be okay?" Lenora asks.
“Yeah. I'll tell the driver to pull over if there's a problem," I reassure her before she closes the door.
I look closer at the beautiful girl. There are small scars at her jawline and near her ears, but in my eyes, they only add to her stunning beauty. I take a few of her silver hairs in my fingers. It's like nothing I've ever seen; like a wig of silver filament but it isn't a wig. It is just how her hair is. Her breath hitches as she sighs in her sleep. I tuck the hairs behind her ear and pull her closer to me.
