Stronger by Ang Chris
Chapter 61

They had stationed themselves between two small peaks; it was a smart move. They had intelligencewritten all over their camp. No open flames, generators instead, heat lamps, dull lights they had a smallvalley that was undetectable.

The most interesting thing was their idea to use different scents and scent blockers, bear scent. Theysomehow knew we leave bears alone unlike most packs in our region.

It had been rumbling for a while, after Luna had been attempted upon. How could they have knownwhere our moon. pool was? How could they have known the weakest part of our wall? That the alphawas away?

Though half of the warriors refused to believe it, this was becoming more and more likely we had amole in our pack. Those who had acknowledged this threat had all decided to test the trust of anyonethey weren’t close with..

We were all on edge with the idea that someone had betrayed the trust of an Alpha who had giveneverything to give us’a haven, overflowing with food, resources, income, defense.

What was worse is that some women were whispering Luna Annette was pregnant, they swore shecouldn’t stand a whiff of pig they had brought her some when she claimed to be working late and shehad ushered herself into the

bathroom.

I had kept that idea to myself. Annette and Grayson had welcomed my sister to them whenever shewas nervous, there was no more protected place in the whole pack than their house. Grayson hadmade sure.

We had found their camp last night, we were going to attack tonight. I wanted to see their faces whenthey realized they couldn’t call for help,when it dawned on them that we must have someone from theirpack, that one of their own: had turned.

We had an explosive rigged on their generator, small, wouldn’t get any smoke past the mountainpeaks. We only had to hope that their tracker hadn’t noticed anything yet so when we attacked theyhad shock in their veins.

I perched myself up on the top of the peak with my bow and arrows, silver tipped. We wanted themuntransformed. Wolf power was strong but I had faith in my team if they had to transform too they’dwin.

It’s a known fact that if your alpha is a large alpha chances are the warriors are of a larger variety.Grayson trumped any Alpha I had seen so I had no doubt that had a hand in why they hadn’t met us inopen combat yet.

“Charge going in 3…2…1,

The sound echoed too much for my liking still I drew back my bow and shot the largest one in the backof the n*eck as he went to inspect the generator.

Their camp had no more than 20 wolves they all ran for weapons we cut the lights when we blew thegenerator so they had to adjust for a second and gtwo of our men had night vision a gift from theCrescent Mountain pack.

I saw once glint of an arrow and the sound of it hitting the softness of the abdomen that terriblesquelching sound. The wolf hit ripped it out stupidly giving him more of a wound. My eyes adjusted andI shot for a wolf running to

escape.

We had a team of wolves positioned at the back and front of their little hideout but I’ll pluck off whoeverI can. I wasn’t in a forgiving or merciful move so I waited and narrowed in on her heart before Iloosened.

An agonized moan left out as someone cradled her. I suppose they were close, that horrible feeling ofwhat I had done itched in my brain. I would think of what I had done when my family, my pack, thepeople who served us were all safe.

I had duty.

I heard someone wrestling with one of them and decided to descend from my hiding spot. I droppeddown from the peak and did my best to land on one of them missed by about a foot.

The shock on my legs knocked me off my balance and one of them tackled me. Tackling the guy withsilver arrows is an interesting move, not one I would take. He had me in a choke hold without any focuson my hands. I grabbed the arrow and sliced him up the side and jabbed him as much I could in theshoulder as his grip weakened.

With the amount of silver in his blood by now there was no way he’d be able to transform. He let me goI kneed him in between his legs and rolled away onto my feet grabbing a rock and knocking him outwith it.

Some crazy wolf jumped on my back and dug her claws into me.

“FUCK!” I growled but before 1 could rip her off of me she had an arrow in her.

I heard a growl next to me.

“Of course.” I cursed my luck.

A wolf that wasn’t particularly small growled at me getting on his haunches for a pounce. My men hadmy back two- fighters came in, grabbing his hind legs and attempting to drag them down. To no avail.

He couldn’t launch at me but he shook them off. Still it gave me time. I transformed in that short span,my wolf Dante coming forward. His balck fur was similar to Graysons, but my eyes were not black likehis but brown.

He charged me and our jaws clashed and scratched nipping for each other. I clawed his front left leg asbest I could but he twisted before I could do much damage. He tried to bite my leg bot a few teeth in itbut it gave me an opening to bite his n*eck.

He yelped and pushed me off of him with his paws but I didn’t leave him alone I went and clawed deepin the back. I went for his hind Jeg and chomped, crushing the bone. He had no choice; he turned backgroaning and holding his

shattered bone.

I turned back when I saw that we had them all injured, dead or surrendered. We then went througheverything they

had.

I sent out a call for a truck to come and get them.

I grabbed one of their computers that was funnily enough still unlocked. I opened the files to see whatthey may have

on us.

Basic rundown on our resources, simple names list of our high ranking wolves.

A file on the Luna got my attention.

Photos of her appeared. Her around the pack, her with Grayson, her on her way back from the moonpool, her with amaria, her and her younger brothers, her through the windows of their house, her nak-.

I closed the folder before I saw what would cost me my eyes.

The alpha would be certain there is a traitor now. Not only that but they were gathering inmate detailsof his wife. Intimate moments between her and Grayson.

But what was worse and what I know would get our warriors killed was the next file, invintory of ourweapns, where our wall defenses were, where the guard out posts were. Everything.
