From Princess To Queen

A Hidden Gem

When Susan came clean about Libby’s lying on her birth certificates for her children, there was another ally on their side to put Libby away for good. Next in line would be Felix trapping him in his lies and what he planned on doing. They knew what he would do, but they needed it to be confirmed verbally, and getting him to do that would be tough.

“Xavior, we have problems back at the pack,” Dunken exclaims.

“What kind of problems?”

“Intruders broke through, and our warriors think it is part of Felix’s group of rogues.”

“Okay, we need to contact Kelly and see what is happening. I will link Clara and tell her what is happening and see what she says.”

“Clara, my pack has been attacked, and my warriors think they are part of Felix’s group.”

“I am linking Kelly about it right now.”

Clara's mind links Kelly to tell her what is happening, asking if she can find any news about this and to get back to her as soon as possible. Kelly snoops around and knows that Libby and Felix have been planning an attack on a nearby pack, but she needs to find out which one it is. The pack’s name was never mentioned by either one of them or any of the warriors.

“Libby, when is the next attack you are planning?”

“Why Issy? Do you think you have what it takes to kill other pack members so we can take them over?”

“Yes, where I came from, I was the elite warrior and trainer and had many kills. You want me to show you?”

“No, that will be fine; I will take your word for it. I will let my son know and see what he says, then get back to you.” Libby says with tight lips.

Kelly reports back to Clara, letting her know what she has found out, and will keep her posted when she speaks to someone. For now, she needs to start sparring with someone in the pack other than her mate to keep up the muscles in her body so that she can fight. She walks out into the forest, where nobody is around, and starts making some moves that do not require a sparring partner when some unknown man walks up and whistles.

“Wow, look at what the cat drug in. Darling, you look amazing in that outfit. I want to take it off you.” an unknown wolf tells her with an evil smirk.

“I have a mate, and if you want to live to see tonight, I suggest that you move along, asshat.”

He walks closer and starts to circle her with a shit-eaten grin stretching to his eyes. He does not see her mind-linking her mate to come and watch a match about to go down and to bring Libby and Felix. He agreed but did not understand what she would do or what was happening. When they arrived where she was, he was pissed. He started to growl, and she gave him a look and linked him to stay out of it. She has it handled.

“Come on, sweet thing, let me touch you and take those clothes off so I can do what I want to you.”

“Oh, how dare you try to touch me, you bastard. You will only regret it on the very first try.”

“Darling, I very much doubt it. You are nothing but a fucking gem to me.”

“Look who thinks he is funny. I almost forgot to laugh.”

He approaches her from behind, putting his arm around her shoulder and reaching for her neck. She takes his arm and flips him over her shoulder onto his back. She throat punches, kicking him in the balls and breaking his nose, making him scream. Kelly pulls him up by the collar of his shirt and gives him a complicated right hook sending him flying into a tree and knocking it down. He gets back up and runs at her while she summersaults over him, taking his head off his shoulders before she lands.

“Issy, you’re on the front lines when we attack. Also, I want you to start training both men and women in this pack. They need to know how to fight.” Felix states.

“Issy, what was that all about?” Max asked her.

“Xavier’s pack was attacked. We need to find out if it was Felix, so I need to start training with them and find out which pack is next.”

“Okay, but you need to be careful, love. I do not want anything happening to you. These men do not take their duties of killing pack members lightly, right?”

“I know, but he needs to be stopped, and Clara cannot do this alone. I am an elite warrior and trainer in my pack, an elite guard, and the only female on top. You just saw a smidge of what I can do.”

“Alright then, get in and get out. If possible, kill Felix’s pack instead of going to war against the next pack. Get on their side and tell them to take refuge as you belong with the princess. But only those that do not like being here and do not want to attack others which could be their alliances.”

“That was my plan all along, my love. Care to join me and head them off in disguise before we get there?”

“Oh hell yes, I would love that. Find out what pack it is so I can warn the alpha. I let him know that you will be joining his side. Let us see how many of these jackasses we can kill off before they know it is us.”

Issy partakes in the meetings for the subsequent attacks but keeps her mind-link open so Max can hear the conversations that are taking place. The next episode would occur in four days, and they move out mid-day the next day as it takes at least two full days to get near the pack. They will set up camp outside the borders and discuss their strategies that evening before attacking the following evening.

Max packed his clothes and headed out immediately by masking his scent so that he could not be followed and took to the trees to escape the compound safely. Once he was at least a day ahead of the rogue group, he contacted the alpha and told him what was happening and to get his people to safety now. His friend sent him a vehicle to pick him up and return to the pack.

There he gets a much-needed shower, shaves, and plans for the surprise attack on the rogues. He keeps his link open to Issy so that she knows what is coming for them, but she does not say a word to her fellow ‘killers’ as she does not want to throw them off their game of attack.

“Leo, my mate Kelly also known as Issy, will be with the group coming to attack your pack. She will not attack you or your warriors, and as we speak, Princess Clara is sending some of her top warriors that Kelly has trained to help with this battle. We need their help to defend Libby and Felix and put them away for good.”

“So it is that bitch and her son doing this? Do you know why they are attacking all these packs?”

“No, we do not know, and that is what Alpha Xavior and Dunken are trying to figure out. His beta was sent into Felix’s pack as a warrior to spy and provide intel but became his beta. He will never be in the battles if he can help it.”

“What happened to the other beta?”

“Felix killed him because he was the mate to his sister; go figure.”

“He is such a bastard, nothing like his father.”

“No, he threw his father out so that he could take over the pack and made it horrible for his members.”

“Just like his mother, she is not trustworthy at all. She has slept around with so many wolves that she does not even know who the father is to her children. But we can guarantee that it was not her husband.”

“WHAT? How do you know this?”

“Dad told me the old man could not have children he did not have...”

“Ouch, you do not have to go on with that story except what happened?”

“He never would tell anyone, and all we know is that he was abused as a child, so we can only imagine that either his father cut them or his mother had them taken off so that he could not become like his father. That was the speculation.”

“Damn, hopefully in his wolf form, not human?”

“Do not know, never asked the father.”

“Back to business. Issy/Kelly will take our side. Her warriors will know who she is once they see her. They know not to attack her. She never broke their mind link so that they could still communicate with each other. That is what the princess wants.”

“Good call on her part. Has she found her mate?”

“Yes, and the trouble that follows it is unbelievable. We think Felix is doing all this for the crown, but we are still determining. That is why Kelly has been sent there to spy on them, and I just happened to find my mate thinking she may be a rogue. She is an elite warrior and trainer, and yes, we already have mated, but no ceremony has taken place yet. We will wait till all this comes to an end.”

“The princess mate is who, and please tell me, not Felix.”

Max explains more to Leo about what he has learned from Kelly. They continue to make plans, bring the other warriors up to speed once they arrive, and prepare to attack the rogues. Xavior sends some of his warriors to Leo’s pack to help since they all know how many rogues will be fighting and want to capture the ones that will talk.

Issy made sure of that once she got in good with them and was making plans for the trip. A hundred warriors would be attacking, but only sixty-five wanted to be caught to get away from Felix and Libby’s rulings. They would do anything to be free and belong to a pack again, and Issy would ensure this would happen.

“Max, Princess Clara is sending pictures that need to be distributed to the warriors to take into custody so they can have their freedom away from Felix and Libby. They will tell you anything you want but be careful Felix will be with us this time.”

“Thank you. I will distribute those pictures so Leo can distribute them to the warriors, not to harm them.”

He texted the warriors’ pictures so they could plan to take the fighters during the day of the attack. Leo and Max want to be sure to get them on their side and get them cleaned up and sent to protection so they are safe, so the plans begin to take them out.

Issy had to let those sixty-five warriors know they would be taken and must be safe to follow Max and Leo. She devised a plan to help her fellow rogues get them a temporary home where they do not have to fight, at least not this night.

“Princess, please be prepared to accept some rogues for protection in the next few days. They are the ones I sent you pictures of; some will be sent your way and go into Xavier’s and Max’s packs after all this is over.”

“I will get Mom and Susan on it to look them over in the hospital once they arrive to ensure they are healthy.”

“Oh, something that you should tell Susan, Libby’s husband could not have children, ever have children.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

They ended their conversation secretly, and she went out to train some more before packing her bags. When she was finished, she took a shower, gathered a few of her belongings, and headed to the meeting place where they were to leave.

They all headed out, and Max had been gone for a day. She knew he had talked with the alpha of The Gentile Pride Pack. By now, they should have everyone to safety, and only a handful of his warriors would stay behind and collect the ones that would be going to a new pack and live in peace and start a new life.
