SWNOVELS Chapter 50
The plans in motion
Aries, Dad and Bear are back and Rach and her mate are back to full health, they are waiting for us in the conference room.
Let’s go then, we need to find her. My wolf is going crazy at me! How did we let this happen brother? Our mate, our Luna! She has two mates, she should be the most protected wolf there ever was and she slipped away from us.
I know brother, I will never forgive myself if something happens to her, I do know I’ll enjoy beating that son of a bitch Argon to a pulp though.
Aries and I power walk down to the conference room ready to start looking for our beloved mate again, we have to find her.
The beta’s and my father stand and bow their heads slightly as my brother and I enter the conference room.
I urge Bear to tell us everything he has as soon as our arses hit the chairs. He explains that they found a lead after reviewing every piece of footage and that he believes Argon personally took her, the wolf they kept in the dungeons was tortured and let everything slip apart from an exact location but he did know what area. Bear explains that in exchange for this information they offered the rogue’s mate and children safe passage into the pack once they had been vetted. I agree to that on the terms that Bear personally handle the vetting and sorting them out into the pack to which he agrees.
“Ok” I say, pulling out the territory map and rolling it out of the desk. “We have trackers out all over the place that are yet to give us any feedback, let’s pull them back in and we can start on this lead we will give them 12 hours to rest and hit them with the plan we agree on but let’s call them back now the sooner they get back the sooner we can start.”
I look over the map thinking out a plan just like the others. We stand silently for a little while until Rach finally speaks.
“So, I have a plan. Why don’t we send a group that hasn’t been out yet to survey the area and see if they can pick up any scents, find a building or caves, anything of the sort and start there.”
“Smart Rach, send four teams of seven men, each to surround and survey and when they have fully scouted the place they can fall back into safety and wait for us from there. The Rogue we saved seemed helpful enough and folded easily. I’m glad we got him.” I say
“OK let’s all go strengthen up and put this plan in motion, we have all been on edge for a few days and pack morale is low without our Luna. Let’s bring her back.” Aries tells the group as he rests his hand on my shoulder both sharing our pain and blame.
And the group disperses to go and start their duties.

OK Ersa, it’s time to start falling for the enemy. I tell my wolf silently. We can’t fall madly in love with him straight away but we can start to show a little submission and make a few hair flicks and hooded eyes whilst staying angry at him so he thinks he is wearing us down, he clearly is deluded to think he can sway us to him over our fated mates, let’s play in to it. It’s the only way to get him to trust us and give him more freedom.
Our mates won’t like this Cierra. My wolf tells me. But the dumb arse Alpha will be putty in our hands she giggles in my head. I roll my eyes at her and push her back as I hear the multiple locks on the door start to be undone. I brace myself for what is coming.
I sit on the edge of the bed, knees up to my face and start to shake my shoulders and fake cry. I smell that Argon has walked into the room and continues to subtly cry so that he will notice.
“Cierra, my soon to be Luna, what has those tears falling from your pretty eyes?” He asks menacingly, his voice laced with the slightest concern. I don’t answer and continue my false crying. I hear his steps as he comes closer to me and I realise I did not hear him close the door, he is already focused on me and making mistakes.
I feel the bed dip next to me and I shiver as his hand strokes down my hair.
“My my little Luna, don’t you worry. You are going to love it here and in turn love me, together we will be powerful it will take time but I know you already have a thing for me, I saw it at the summit, I saw the way you stared into my soul, my wolf even felt it.” He tells me his voice is soft falling into my trap already.
Idiot it’s been two minutes and the dumb fluff is putty. Ersa snarls in my mind.
Ersa hush I’m trying to concentrate I tell her and push her back. I can feel my wolf’s anger at the feel of his hands anywhere near us but we both need to reign in that anger to carry out our plan.
