From Here to Ecstasy

A/N Wanted to send a big thank you out to PenumbraMINE and N.Y.O.B. You two make my day every time I read your comments.

Recap

I teleported right in front of the she-bitch, causing her to jump and turn to run. “Nope.” He froze her where she stood, keeping her mouth free.

“You, mother fucker! Let me loose! I haven’t done anything to you!” She screamed.

“Well, that wasn’t nice. Your words are partly true. You didn’t do anything to me. But, it affects me all the same. You-” I was cut off.

“I challenge Willow for the Luna position!” She yelled.

Willow’s POV

I grunted when Asher joined his wolf with mine, not that I knew what he did until he explained. I didn’t want to fall to my knees, but it was close. I wanted to look strong and fierce. I didn’t want Amy to know any different. I hadn’t been trained since I was taken, hell, I wasn’t allowed out my locked cell. The only ‘comfort’ items I had were a bed and blanket, well, I did have a bucket to use as my toilet.

“Are you deaf? I challenge the slut for the Luna position!”

I growled so loud I was almost deaf. “It’s me, Willow. Can I use your voice to get a message to the bitch? I won’t take too long,” the Moon Goddess asked me, getting my consent immediately.

“You will not call my granddaughter a slut. She did nothing wrong. She trusted the wrong people, but what do you expect from a child in her own territory? You called a challenge, so come on,” the Moon Goddess spoke through me.

“Don’t worry about killing in anger, Willow. I’ll keep your level headed. She’s going to taunt you to get you mad, but don’t fall for her bull. I’ve got you,” Asher told me, making my heart rate calm.

“Thanks, Asher. I was worried. I’ve never had a fight in my life,” my wolf, Flame, told him.

“I have, so you’re going to learn some techniques. I will be guiding you the whole time.”

I had forgotten to answer Amy’s challenge, making me look weak. “Challenge accepted!” I yelled as I gave her my back and walked over to the challenge circle.

I turned when I heard scuffling and saw Griffith pulling Amy to the challenge circle, making sure she stayed in place until the rules were over. I could tell she was furious and embarrassed. I guess she didn’t like being trussed up and encased in ice. I knew Griffith would let her thaw out before our challenge.

I couldn’t believe that the Amy I know was the bitch who stole me from my pack. What she did to me was wrong on so many levels. How could someone do that to someone, knowing the child would be raped and beat? She had no soul for her to be able to hear me scream and cry as she laughed at my attempts to get away from the perv.

I watched as Griffith’s mom smiled at Amy. “Just so you know...Willow hasn’t had her Luna ceremony, but she’s still going to fight you. That’s a real Luna.”

“I’ll be the Luna here! I have wanted an Alpha forever. Why the hell do you think I stole her? I thought he would make me his Luna and keep her as his mistress!” Amy yelled as her eyes widened.

“Thank you, Amy. You opened your mouth without a truth spell. Take care of this bitch, Willow.” Griffith glared at Amy and nodded at me. I nodded as I smiled wickedly, trying to rile her up, going with what Asher told me what to do.

“How did you figure out I was Griffith’s mate? That is why you took me to start with, right?” I asked as I glared at Amy. It was a question that had bothered me since I got here. The perv would come by this pack or by Alpha Summer’s pack even if it was out of the way, dragging me with him.

I’m an idiot.

He was trying to find out who my mate was. He was going to kill me in front of my mate and bring the pack down. I should have known what he was doing. He was always one to dabble with witches, and not the good kind either.

Amy started laughing. “We didn’t know at first. But, when we would take over other packs and go by this one you always looked in this direction wistfully. You gave yourself away. It was fun to play with all of you. All I needed was to give a sob story about my family being killed and viola. You-”

“should shut your mouth,” Griffith’s mom told her. “Now, are you going to fight or stand there and gloat?”

“I’m done gloating, bitch. I’m going to kill her and be the Luna of this pack,” Amy stated as she smiled at my mother-in-law, who in turn smirked at her.

She went over the rules and Amy didn’t take magic out of the equation. I wondered why her thoughts weren’t heard. How did she dupe everyone? It had to be a strong witch or maybe a warlock.

“Fight!” I heard, bringing me out of my musings.

I watched as Amy fidgeted and glared at me. “Just to let you know...I was one of the pack warriors. I will be able to crush you quickly. I can’t wait to make a fool out of you in front of your parents,” Amy remarked as she looked at my parents with a smirk.

“Are you going to talk all day or fight? I have things to do,” I taunted Amy.

I watched as Amy huffed and ran towards me. My heart was in my throat and I was trying not to shake. At the last minute, I stepped aside and kicked her in the back, per Asher’s instructions. Amy went flying through the air, landing hard, surprising the shit out of me.

Amy got up and growled, holding her arm she landed on. I noticed when I kicked her Amy had landed on her shoulder and now it was dislocated. I waited to see what Amy would do next. Amy popped her shoulder back in place and growled again as she ran at me. Again.

I let out a huge growl, startling me and causing Amy to fall to her knees. What the fuck? I'm a witch, not a were. I walked over to her and knelt in front of her. “If you were a stronger wolf you would have never knelt to me. I could take your life as you bow to me, but I’m not going to be unfair to you. I’m not like you at all and I don’t want to be. Don’t take my words as weak. I will end you to keep my pack safe.” I walked away and turned back around to Amy. “You may rise and continue.” Everyone in our pack rose, startling me and causing me to give them a sheepish grin.

Amy rose and glared at me, but she didn’t move. She waited for me to make a move. I rolled my eyes. I disappeared and reappeared right in front of Amy and punched her in the nose. I stomped on her foot and kicked out her knee, taking a few steps back. I could tell she was trying to keep her shaking to herself. It had to hurt, not only her face but her pride. And, she was very prideful.

“You’re cheating! I didn’t know you could use magic, too!” Amy whined as she wiped the blood off her nose.

“You should always know your opponent's strengths and weaknesses.”

“You are weak, that’s all I needed to know!” Amy yelled as she continued to wipe her nose.

“Said the person with blood on her face and a messed up leg,” I snarled back.

Did she really think I would let her take my position, my mate, and my pack? She had to have a screw loose, several screws loose. What did she think I was going to do, lay down and let her walk all over me? That I would let her kill me?

No chance in hell.

I had enough of her shit. I was tired of watching her stand there and bleed. I knew she was trying to heal her leg while she waited, not thinking I would come at her again. But, that was exactly what I did. I ran at her, causing her to look up and move towards me, a surprised look on her face.

Now, who’s the bitch?

Me, that’s who.
