"Valerie". Gwen muttered as she crumbled the sheet of paper in her hand, her blood boiled with rage as a heavy wind blew, scattering everything in the living room, things started flying around as her eyes began to glow brightly. 

Asher looked at Lance worriedly, she needed to calm down before she destroyed the whole place In rage. 

"lance, do something". Asher yelled as he held onto a chair for support. 

"amor, please calm down". Lance said through the mindlink, but Gwen was already blinded by rage to even listen to him, she just wants Valerie dead at that moment. 

"please listen to me, control your anger, you need to control it". Lance yelled as the wind pushed him, sending him flying into the wall, his body hit hard against the wall, giving it a crack. 

Gwen's eyes became clouded, she seems to be in some kind of trance, she then laviated, floating in the air. 

"Lance, do something". Asher yelled as he was also pushed against the wall, things began floating, while some smashed into pieces.

"I'm trying, i can't get through to her, there's a huge wall blocking me". he yelled back. 

"then do something to make her conscious you idiot". Asher yelled. 

Lance stared at Gwen as his mind began to race real fast, what can he do to make her conscious. 

"cornor, any idea, this is getting out of control".

"I've got an idea, don't know if that'll work, but let's give it a trial".

"what's it".

"hurt yourself lance, she's our mate, I guess if she feels our pain, she'll get conscious".

"alright". Lance replied as his eyes searched for something to hurt himself with, luckily, he saw a knife lying on the floor, not too far from him. 

Lance struggled to get to it through the heavy wind, picking it up, he slashed his right palm deeply. 

Gwen let out a scream as she felt his pain. 

"lance". she screamed as she dropped to the floor, everywhere became calm, but the whole room was left in a big mess and damage.

"lance". she said as she ran to meet him, where he laid on the floor. 

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry". she said in tears as she helped him up. 

"no love, I'm fine, how are you". He asked as he hugged her. 

"I'm sorry, I couldn't control my anger, I'm so sorry''. She said, sobbing into his chest. 

"shh, it's alright, it's fine". He cooed ,patting her head lovingly. 

"let me see your palm". She said, pulling away from him.

She grabbed both of his hands, but the one he cut was his right palm, and it healed immediately. 

"it's healed". She whispered. 

"of course, we're immortals". He chuckled. 

"Well well well,seems someone's forgotten about me". Asher said, walking towards them. 

"you really need to work on your anger Gwen, you almost killed an innocent young man you know, and a very handsome one at that".

"what would you have told my lovely mate, we don't even have pups yet". he said dramatically, while Gwen chuckled. 

"I'm so sorry asher, it won't happen again".

"nope, you've gotta promise me on this one, your anger is even worse than lance, thought he had anger issues, but man, yours is much worse".

"right lance". He smirked. 

"shut up". Lance said with an eye roll. 

"But what made you so angry, Gwen?". Asher asked and Gwen frowned immediately. 

"hey hey hey, calm down ok, don't go all gaga now, please, i certainly don't wanna experience that again". he said, wiping off an imaginary sweat. 

"you're such a drama queen asher". Gwen said, pulling Lance so they could sit on the only surviving cushion. 

"did i really do all this". she muttered, looking at the damage she's cost. 

"don't worry love, we'll have this fixed in no time". Lance said, tucking a loose strand of her white hair behind her ear. 

"Well I'm definitely not sitting on the floor, so you both had better move your asses a bit for me". Asher said, pushing Lance a bit so he could also sit. 

"do you have a death wish". Lance growled. 

"how about, no, but I'm not giving this seat up". He scoffed. 

"you two stop with the fight now, we need Leo and both your mates here, we all need to talk ". Gwen said seriously. 

"I've mindlinked them already, they'll be here soon". Lance said. 

They waited for a while, and not too long, the trio stepped in. 

"sweet baby Jesus, what in the world happened here, did a storm come in OR something". Grace said as she carefully stepped over a broken glass.

"ok, someone needs to say why the whole place is in a huge mess and where did all the chairs go". Linda added. 

"ladies ladies, your Luna did this in a fit of rage". Asher said and the trio turned to look at gwen. 

"guys, stop giving me that look, things happen, you know, and this is all a mistake". She defended. 

"huh huh". Grace said. 

"I'll get y'all a chair now". She said and they all gave her the *are you kidding me look*.

she rolled her eyes at them, and with a swipe of her hand, she created three cushions. 

"OMG, I love you". Asher squealed and lance immediately let out a dangerous growl. 

"oh please, calm down lance, why are you being so jealous". He said as he quickly stood up from where he sat to sit on one of the other cushions, his mate joined him, while Leo and his mate occupied another one. 

"I'm with Lance Asher, say that once more and I'll roast your jewel". Grace threatened with a sweet smile. 

"ok, that's enough y'all, let's talk about something important". She said, and they all wore a serious look. 

"the bodies we found at the pack borders". She said, 

"what about it". Lily asked. 

"it's all Valerie's doing". She said and they all growled in anger. 

"yes, y'all remember her, I told you about her, she's the witch responsible for all what's happened to me".

"so the bitch is back". Grace growled. 

"yes, and asher found a letter, i got angry after reading the content, and to top it all, it was written with blood".

"what's in the letter". Asher asked. 

"she said the dead teenage girls were only but a welcome gift, she's asking for a war, and she believes she can destroy the pack". Gwen growled while Lance scoffed. 

"that foolish woman doesn't know what she's asking for, i would have her head for this, i promise I won't give her a quick death". He growled.

"leave her to me alpha, I'll enjoy snapping her neck". Asher growled. 

yea, asher can be playful and all that, but when angry, you wouldn't believe he's the one who's always unserious, he can be very dangerous when he needs to, and the unfortunate person would regret coming in contact with him, he isn't called a BETA for nothing. 

''y'all leave Valerie to me, get the pack ready, prepare the bunker for the women and children, the warriors needs to train twice as much as the usual, i trust the pack is strong, there's no doubt about that, get everyone prepared, Valerie would definitely Strike soon, and she won't be meeting us unprepared, we'll be ready for her". Gwen said, with the full authority of a Luna. 

''yes luna". They all bowed, and Lance felt his chest swell with pride, he was proud of his mate. 

"We'll see to your orders now Luna". Asher said as they all stood up to leave. 

"you're really taking this calmly, just like a true luna". Lance complimented, pulling her to him. 

"of course, this is my pack, they're my family and responsibility, it's my duty to protect them". She replied. 

"I'm so proud of you my love". Lance said, as he placed a kiss on her hair, Gwen snuggled closer to him, resting her head on his broad chest as she wrapped her hands around his waist. 

"thanks love". she muttered. 

*no matter what happens Valerie, I'll definitely punish you for what you've done*

*i'll be waiting for you*

*I'LL BE READY FOR YOU*
