"Alpha, our patrollers have reported sightings of some Rouge's around the perimeter." My beta and closest friend announced.

"And they were only passing through?" I asked tiredly.

"Yes Alpha." He said.

"About how many?" I inquired further.

"Five." He replied.

"I seize to believe that they are just passing by. Rogues hardly walk together." I said.

"What should we do?" He asked

"I believe I made you my beta for a reason. You know the rules, Deal with it your self." I all but snapped.

"Yes alpha!" he said with a bow as he made a move to exit the room.

"Damien?"I called out.

"Alpha." He replied pursing at the door.

"I don't want any further disturbances. I'll rather you mind link me when things get serious. When I mean serious, I mean beyond your capacity. Are we clear?

"Yes alpha!" He replied.

"Now you can leave." I command.

After he exits the room, I expel a breath that I never knew I kept in.

I have been stressed and pissed pretty often this few weeks like a pregnant she wolf and it is being projected through the pack link leaving everyone on edge.

My wolf is in distress.

We haven't seen the moon in two weeks. Not in reality, not even in our dreams. I can't help but feel hallow. I haven't been stable. I can't think straight, function properly.

I never knew I could be this needy. Feel this lonely. This ache in my heart like I have lost a part of me. If I where told at the beginning of this year that I would feel this things toward the moon, I would laugh and have the person checked.

Where has she gone? Doesn't she want me anymore? Has she decided that this is a joke that can't work? That we won't work?

Then why....? Why did she draw me in just to end up kicking me out? Why did she voice out to me that night? And just when I had started to see a hope in all of this, she disappeared...

It happened about two weeks before today. I had been so eager to dream about the moon that I slept early that day. Not long after I closed my eyes, did I find myself in our special place. My Haven. The moon stood in her place radiant has ever. I got lost in her beauty. My wolf thinking that nothing and no one, could compare to her. My moon... for the first time in a long while, we both agreed on something.

I sat by the stream and Lightly touched my fingers to the moons reflection and that when the strangest thing happened.

I heard a humming sound of content. So subtle yet prominent. Feminine yet demanding to be heard. I could feel its vibration within me, it wasn't my doing nor my wolf's. Just like that the humming stopped. Like no sound was ever made.

Sitting still for a little longer, trying to see if I could pickup any sound, I heard nothing and decided to go on with eye rapping my mate. It sounds so wrong, but feels so right. I can't explain it, and I won't.

Just as I was about to touch my finger to her refection once more, the strangest thing happened. The moon dissapered and where once held illumilating light, darkness now occupied.

Panic... That's what I felt.

Rage.... That's what consumed my wolf.

Who dared to take our moon away from us?!

With a feral growl, my wolf struggles to gain control and I was more than willing to let him.

Still in human form but with the beast within at the forefront, we ready our self's for battle. Scanning the whole perimeter, but then finding nothing, we came to a conclusion that maybe the goddess as finally realised this pairing was a mistake.

We sat in silence. The word Confusion didn't do Justice to how lost we felt. My heart isn't just broken, its shattered.

Still standing in my state of stupor.

Whispers of my name began to resound in this dark empty space.

"Joel..."

"Joe.."

The voice that spoke it was angelic. It shook me to my very core. No one has ever made me love my full name has this feminine voice did that very moment..

The scents of the sea was becoming more prominent with a little note of lilly. It was intoxicating and I could not help but look allover the place for where the voice came from.

Just like before, it all seized making me ponder if it was all my wish full thinking. Be it my wishful thinking isn't this my dream? Shouldn't all my wishful thinking come true? Why don't I have a say in this?.

I woke up alarmed at my dream covered in cold sweat but soon consoled myself saying it was just one of those days my mind played tricks on me. Oh how wrong I was!

For the past two weeks, the moon as all but vanished without trace. Now when I close my eyes I find myself in the same place but with no moon in sight. When I'm awake, all that greet me is a blank sky.

My heart is in turmoil.

Oh Goddess!, where is my mate?
