A knock at my door woke me up, glancing at my phone I saw it was ́only seven AM.
“Honey it’s me can I come in” I am surprised Mom was here this early.
They stayed over at the Cresent Moon pack, so they could visit Kate and Tim again. And give them some of the gifts they already had for their pup. It was a two-hour drive to get here.
“Of course, Mom come on in” I shout at the closed door as I sit up straighter knowing I have to get anyway soon to finish my left shift at the library.
I could have probably gotten the day off with the news I got yesterday. I discussed it with Grandpa but I just wanted to end this normally. Most likely David would start a war, he has ruined enough things for me already. And he is going to ruin more, there is no way I am letting him take this last day at the job I so enjoyed away from me.
“Hi, honey, Grandpa told us you were still going to work so we decided to be here in time to have breakfast with you. Just so we can tell you how proud we are of you” Mom tells me.
And I appreciate it, it’s so sweet that they have gotten up so early to have breakfast with me. But I didn’t feel like I had done anything that warranted them being proud of me. All I did was finally accept the best thing that ever happened to me. Finally not letting David ruin even more for me. It was hard not feeling guilty about the fact that my parents and Daniël had lost everything because of me now. My mind kept going over all the things I could have done differently. Like Griffin, my parents would never want me to feel guilty and I am

determined not to ruin their breakfast. So I just k*ss my mother’s check and tell her I am just going to get dressed.
Opening my closet I smile when I see it is almost empty, most of my clothes are already packed. Neatly stacked away in the boxes stacked up against the other wall. I packed them a little early but it felt good taking steps towards my future. Mom and Dad would load them up in their car so that Griff would not see them. Then they would make their way to the castle tomorrow morning so they would just be in time for the BBQ. Thinking about the fact that Griffin still doesn’t have a clue about what is happening made me feel a lot lighter. There was no reason for me to dwell on the past when my future was shaping up to be so bright.
After a quick shower, I dress in simple jeans and a black shirt. The library didn’t have a uniform but they did want their staff to dress in dark jeans and black tops. I usually wore brighter colors, but I preferred just needing to stick to a color scheme instead of wearing a uniform. Still, I wouldn’t miss wearing these clothes. I tie my hair up in a bun and make my way to the kitchen.
Daniel jumps up to hug me telling me how proud he is of me. Dad just winks at me and for a moment it feels as if nothing else is going on. We try to not discuss the deaths of Alpha Phillip and Luna Jenna but you can’t just keep ignoring something so big. Being the intuitive smart man he is Grandpa is the first to break the silence
“Is there a possibility that this was not an accident, that there is more going on? Could the BloodMoon pack be under attack?” He says thinking out loud.
That theory isn’t too far-fetched, Alpha Phillip was a hard and cold Alpha, there is a reason we have hardly been able to keep the pack thriving. Most packs had several pack doctors. Even some retired ones who would be willing to help out in a crisis. Packs did only have one

lead warrior but they had close seconds. Who when not in a war could take over from the lead warrior whether that was permanently or temporarily. But not the BloodMoon pack they have always been struggling to make sure we had every necessary position filled in. There also had been quite a few rogue attacks, mainly because Alpha Phillip had a habit of driving wolves he deemed unworthy out of the pack.
“I’m so sorry we are about to lose it all, and Ayla my poor baby all the abuse I made you suffer through” Mom suddenly started sobbing.
When I was old enough I overheard a discussion between Mom and Dad about how the BloodMoon pack was being led. I know Dad had wanted to move out of the pack before, the longer they stayed the harder it had become. Eventually, Mom was the only pack doctor left and leaving would eventually lead to war. I was sure Dad did not blame Mom for what was happening and neither did I. Nob*dy did, being loyal to your pack was one of the things that made us wolves. Every wolf that left their pack, mostly to live with their mate felt the pain of breaking their first pack bond. Mom not wanting to abandon the good members of the pack made sense. After all, she became a doctor because she wanted to help people. After we all reassured her I said my goodbyes and walked into the library for the last time.
