Author's POV:

Many Years Ago,

"Go Thiago! Save yourself!" his mother shouted at him while trying to fight off the crazy and

lustful alpha king. Thiago did what his mother told him. He started sprinting into the woods to

somehow reach his pack and ask his father for help. He ran and ran. His little legs didn't even

want to give up because his mother needed him.

"I must tell dad to help mom," he said, rushing through the trees and making his way to his

pack.

"Dad needs to save mom," he repeated, tripping and hitting his head hard. He didn't even let

out a cry, and he got on his feet the next minute to make sure he didn't waste any time.

"Help!" He then let out a scream after running for an hour and watching his pack arrive. The

guards at the pack border shared a glance and then looked his way.

"Alpha Thiago? Your Highness! What is going on?" The guards approached him, and Thiago

finally stopped.

"D--ad!" he stuttered, fighting for his breath.

"Dad n-eeds to help mom," he whispered, slowly breaking down as reality began to settle in.

Once he was done with his mission to reach the pack, he began to cry like the innocent child he

was.

"I don't understand what you mean. Where is Luna?" The guard looked behind him and instantly realized something

was definitely not right.

"I will go get Alpha Shepherd," the guard said, running towards the mansion while the other guard offered Thiago

water.

He was sobbing uncontrollably and not accepting any help. His dad arrived at the scene and pulled his son aside to

make sure he spoke to him in private first.

"Dad!" Thiago hugged his father. "Mom needs you." He whispered, making sure the guards didn't hear anything. He

just felt like he needed to save everything from his mother.

"Some bad wolf was hurting mom," he yelled, pulling away from his father.

"What are you saying?" Shepard straightened his back and then gestured at the guards to get ready.

"I know where they are; we need to hurry." Thiago held his father's hand and started pulling him along.

"No! You tell me where they are, and I will go save her. You are going to stay here," Shepard disagreed with the

idea of taking his son along. Thiago had been crying so much that he looked like he was going to faint. He had also

run for an hour and more in the cold weather. His little body and muscles were sore.

Thiago quickly told them all about the directions while the guard took him back to the mansion. He spent the entire

night crying while sitting on the cold floor and waiting for his parents to arrive.

"They must have saved her, right?" He turned to the Royal beta, who looked very sad at the condition of the little

prince.

"Janet! Come here, my dear daughter. Why don't you take Thiago to his room and you two play some video

games?" Mr. Mackenzie eyed his little daughter, who was the same age as Thiago, to distract him as he denied

leaving the cold spot near the entrance of his mansion.

"I don't want to play any games. I want to sit here and welcome my parents," Thiago shook his head, denying to

take any help.

"Uncle! Why don't you call dad and ask him where mom is? Is she hurt?" he turned to Mr. Mackenzie and stared at

him with his crystal grey eyes, begging to know how his mother is.

"Umm-1 — will. But you know she will be very sad if she finds out you didn't go to bed and sat here in high fever—

oh Goddess! My child! You have a high fever," Mr. Mackenzie expressed, shocked when he touched Thiago's face.

"I am fine," Thiago shook his head once again.

"Thiago! Your mom will be very upset if-," Mr. Makenzie paused once he noticed Thiago wasn't even listening to him.

"Oh, no!" The royal beta got on his feet and walked over to speak to the guard.

"He has a high fever. I don’t know how to tell him what happened to his mother," he sighed, feeling bad for the little

boy who had been staring at the door, hoping to find his parents walking inside, holding hands.

"What exactly happened?" It was then that Royal Beta asked the guard, who was told to inform

Mackenzie of everything.

"By the time they arrived, the car and Luna were gone. It didn't even seem like what Prince

Thiago said was true. In fact, they found the car tracks leading to the hills. Maybe the car broke

down and she told Thiago to wait on the side while she tried to fix it; maybe she sped away?

Nobody knows what happened until the car is found," the guard said, and the two watched

Thiago's eyes close by force.

"I have to rush him to the hospital," Mr. Makenzie said when he saw Thiago's body drifting to the

side as he passed out from fever.

He took him to the hospital while Lord Shepard spent the night with the investigators looking for

the car.

"We found something!" a warrior yelled from down the hills.

"What is it?" a cop yelled.

"It is Luna's car, and — Oh My God!" The warrior started throwing up. It was enough to make

Lord Shepard uneasy.

He rushed to the bottom like a beast to see what they had found. The moment he saw the sight,

his heart stopped. Before him was a car that had run off the cliff, and inside it was his dead

Luna.

"No!" Shepard screamed, watching the silver traps that were supposed to keep the rogues out

pierce through her heart.

She must have died hours ago, all alone and miserable.

"My Luna!" Shepard dropped to his knees while a pack doctor ran to inspect her dead body.

"Umm! There he paused after taking one look at the body, "There seemed to have been a foul

play," he murmured and Shepard’s eyes grew double the size in shock.
