My Fated Human Luna
Fated Human Alpha Chapter 33

Gabriella

POV

I'm so happy to see Monica standing with her mate taking on the Alpha and Luna roles in this pack. She has become one of my best friends despite our beginnings. I will miss having her around every day but this is how it was meant to be. I'm glad Lake knew what was best for this pack and is the type of Alpha to put them first. Atticus and Monica will be great leaders, which is what they need after the loss the pack suffered. Elder Bradford announces the pack run and I see the fear in Leslie's eyes. I know this plan will work. I trust Tabby completely. I look at Tabby as Lake undresses so he can shift into Razor. She nods and I climb on Razor's back. I lay with my chest against the soft fur. I love the way it feels against my skin every time we run. Phoenix and Marigold take off with the pack running behind them. We stay at the tail end of the pack members with Brian and Leslie's wolves running by our side. I can feel the nerves in my stomach knowing what is about to happen. As we round the territory border the hair stands up on the back of my neck. Brian's wolf starts to slow and sniff the air, so Razor follows suit.

Razor lays down and I slide off. Lake, Leslie, and Brian all shift. "What is happening?" "You and Leslie need to stay behind us." "I smell rogues." Lake says. Before he can say anymore, two rogue wolves break through the trees heading straight for Lake. "Protect Gabriella" he says before he shifts. They begin to fight and Leslie comes to stand next to me. I watch Brian frozen in place for a moment before he turns toward me. He takes five steps until he is standing in front of me and has partially shifted. "What are you doing Brian, why aren't you helping Lake?" I look to see Lake dealing with the rogues and I look back at Brian, who has unshed tears in his eyes. "I'm so sorry" he says pulling his arm back. I wait to feel the blow but it never comes. He falls to his knees in front of me. "I can't, I can't do it" he sobs. He looks up to Leslie, who smiles at him before she comes to stand in front of me. Leslie POV

As soon as the rogues break the trees, I look to my right side and Tabby is hiding where we said she would be. I say a prayer to the goddess that this plan truly works. I'm standing next to Gabriella when Brian walks toward us. I see the utter defeat in his eyes and I hate that he couldn't be included in the plan. We needed our mates to truly believe what is about to happen. We need those ba**ards to believe what is happening is real so they will give us our pups. I still don't know how to feel if he truly goes through with killing Gabby. Even if it won't be real, he doesn't know that. My heart is in my throat as he stands partially shifted in front of her. When he falls to his knees pleading that he can't harm her, I feel that panic melt away. I come to stand in front of her and watch her eyes change colors. I partially shift and slam my claw into her chest. When I pull my hand back, Brian screams. She falls to the ground and he starts to pull me away from her. "Shift and run now Leslie." "He will kill you." I listen and we take off toward the border as we hear Lake roar.

As soon as we cross the border and weave through the trees, I catch the scent of those two evil ba**ards. We don't shift and they step out in front of our wolves. "I didn't think you had it in you, Leslie", Jessica smiles. Kenneth looks like he won the lottery. "As for you brother, that was pathetic." He growls, "enough we need to get far from here", Kenneth says. They both shift and they take off with us, following behind them. When we have run for what feels like a lifetime, they both stop. I breathe deeply trying to smell my pups, but I can't scent them. I immediately shift. "Where are my pups you f**king b**ch?" "We did what you asked, I want my girls now" I say moving toward her. Brian wraps his arms around me. She shifts and laughs. "Calm down Leslie, we don't want your pups." "They are on their way to the diner in the human city." " Honestly, I didn't think either of you would go through with it." "I just wish I could be there to watch that ba**ard cry over his dead mate's body" she says. I can't wait to watch this b**ch suffer for all she has done. I want a front row seat. We shift again, heading toward the human city.

Lake POV

As I fight the rogues, I feel like something is trying to break through my block. "Lake Gabby is safe, remember you would feel the pain if she wasn't", I hear a soft female voice say before I snap the second rogue's neck. They both lay dead before me. Where the hell is Brian? I turn to see Brian and Leslie shift, running toward the border. I look back and Gabriella is lying on the ground. Razor roars and we run, moving as fast as we can toward our mate. We reach her in seconds and shift. The words play over in my head and I felt no pain as the voice said. I bend down, placing my hand on her cheek. I know despite the way she looks, this is not my mate. "What the f**k is going on," Razor growls in my mind. Tabby appears next to me. "We need to go back to the pack house now." "Tell me what the hell is happening" I demand. "I promise you that Gabby is safe and she will explain everything when we get there." I realize it was Tabby's voice I heard in my mind. I stand and she wraps her arms around me. She teleports me to the pack yard. I rush inside and up to the office. Gabriella is inside with Archer and Sabrina. I immediately wrap my arms around her and bury my head in her neck. "Sabrina, you should have told us what you ladies were up to", Archer says to his mate. Despite his words there is no real anger in his voice. "Dad don't be mad at mom, I take full responsibility for not telling Lake." I pick up my head to look into my beautiful mate's eyes. "You're lucky Tabby warned me or I'd be losing my sh*t right now." "I'm sorry we needed it to be believable." "Brian has no idea that Leslie didn't kill me" Gabriella says. "Can you tell me exactly what the hell just happened?" "It looked like you but obviously I know it wasn't."

Tabby POV

"I can probably explain that better than Gabby can" I say walking into the office. "Leslie was sure that Brian wouldn't follow through with killing Gabby and she was right." "It was Gabby with you the whole time during the pack run." "I followed and waited in the trees." "When Leslie stepped in front of her, I used my power to send Gabby back to the pack house." I smile at Sabrina "it worked once before so I was hopeful that it would work again." Lake looks at me confused. "Archer's father tried to kill Fern but ended up killing something that was made of sand to look like her." "If you headed back out to the border where all this happened you would replace nothing but sand now." He smiles "you truly are amazing Tabitha." "We are so lucky to have you as part of our pack and family." "I will do anything to protect my family." "Thank you for warning me so I didn't lose my mind when I saw Gabriella lying on the ground."

"We should be hearing very soon about the pups?" Now Gabby looks confused. "Let's just say I may have added a little to the plan." She smiles "what would that be?" "I gave Leslie a little something that will help us replace those two a**hats after they have their pups safe and sound." Gabby rushes over and hugs me. She whispers in my ear "he's right, you know, we are so lucky to have you." "I promise you, Gabby, you have all given me far more than I could ever give." We head back down to the celebration waiting to hear from Leslie.

Brian POV

I can't believe Leslie killed her after all she said in the SUV. I couldn't kill that innocent girl. I can't believe she could. I can't lose my mate, even if what she did was wrong. We will have to leave. I don't care about my title, I won't lose my family. As we run toward the human city, my thoughts are drowning me. We reach the edge of the forest and shift back to human form. Jessica throws us clothes and we dress quickly. We don't even wait for them and we rush into the diner. I look around and I don't see the girls. They come in behind us. "Take a seat, he is on his way with the girls", Kenneth says. I want to grab him by the throat snapping his neck for all he has done with my sister's help, but we have come this far and I will see this through. We slide into the booth. Ten minutes later, the bell on the door sounds and my beautiful pups walk in, followed by another rogue. Leslie is on her feet and wrapped around our pups before anyone can speak. I am right behind her. The rogue that brought them in steps back. I pick up Candace and Leslie picks up Molly. We head for the door and once we are outside, we look the girls over checking for any sign of injury. "Are you hurt?" "No daddy, they didn't hurt us." "I told you they would be unharmed as long as you did what we told you to do", Jessica says. I whip my head in her direction. "We are done with you two." "You got what you wanted now, leave us the f**k alone." "Such language in front of your innocent pups" she says. Before I can stop her, Leslie puts Molly down and walks toward my sister. She slaps her across the face and walks back to us. Jessica growls and Kenneth grabs her before she can go after my mate. "We are in the human city, enough." "We are done with them", he says and they head toward the forest. I pull Leslie to me, "what the hell were you thinking?" She smiles but doesn't answer me. She picks up Molly and we walk into the trees. Leslie turns toward me "we need to head back to the Silver Moon Pack." "Like hell we will." "Archer is going to kill you for what you have done." She comes to stand in front of me "do you really think I killed Gabby, Brian?" Now I'm really confused. "I watched you" I stop myself remembering Tabby. "Are you telling me that Gabby is still alive?" She smiles "she is very much still alive." "Oh, my goddess if I wasn't so happy right now that she is alive and we have the pups I would put you over my knee." She leans in to kiss my cheek "maybe later." I chuckle and I can't believe how much lighter I feel in just a few minutes.

We shift and the girls climb on our backs. We run at a reasonable speed until we reach the pack. As soon as we head inside, everyone is waiting. Gabby comes toward us. "I'm sorry we tricked you, Brian, but I'm glad to see it worked." I wrap her in a hug so happy that she is really alive. "Did you do what I told you to do" Tabby asks Leslie. "I did and it felt really good." "I'm sure it did." "Can you let the rest of us in on the secret?" They both smile "when Leslie slapped your sister, she marked her with magic powder I gave her." "They can't see it but I can sense it, so we can replace them and make them pay for all they have done."
