Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0587 More of his warriors joined the fight, | making the entire peaceful night shift into utter chaos. Maddox was yelling out commands but my eyes were focused on Anthony.

His attention was shifted to Colt. Colt had his beta by the neck. His feet were off the ground but Colt’s entire focus was on the beta and not Anthony.

“COLT!” I yelled as I took off running.

It was like slow motion as I sprinted towards Anthony. He had shifted into his wolf in mid air as he leaped down the stairs. Colt barely registered my voice, making him turn towards Anthony. His wolf just had landed on the ground when Colt shifted his

potion so the beta was no between Anthony and himself.

Anthony’s wolf was in motion so there was no stopping him from wrapping his mouth around his beta’s stomach before he fell on top of Colt. My own wolf cforward as blood went flying and we weren’t sure who's it was.

Jumping into the air, my wolf flew towards Anthony. Tucking his head, his shoulder made contact with Anthony’s ribs. The sickening snap of ribs were music to my hears as we tumbled over each other.

There wasn’t any tto see if Colt was okay. My wolf managed to slid on his paws, in the ready position for another attack. Anthony’s wolf struggled a little bit more.

“LET’S GO!” Maddox's voice barely

penetrated my focus, making my wolf angry. He wanted to finish this but that isn’t what we cfor. By this time, Anthony’s wolf was back on his feet, teeth growling at me.

“RETREAT!” “RETREAT!” I heard across the valley.

Colt’s wolf walked up beside me. I wanted to finish this but we didn’t have enough men to go against his warriors. Together, we backed up until we turned and ran away from a growling Anthony. He knew he wasn’t a match between Colt and I but we were no match for his entire army of men.

Jumping the wall was easy in our wolves. Colt raised his nose in the air and went off to the side of a tree. By the

tI saw him again, he was carrying two pairs of shorts in his mouth. As soon as we were back by the vehicles, we shifted back and were pulling up the shorts by the teveryone else arrived.

“GET IN!” Maddox was pissed but so was I.

Everyone piled in but no one said a word. Lars had a gash across his face otherwise he was fine. Jace seemed unhurt and Colt was covered in blood but was grabbing his own ribs.

“His beta?” I asked looking at Colt.

“Dead. He bit his whole side of him off.” Colt looked directly at me.

“Why the fuck did you engage? My instructions were clear!” Maddox turned and glared at us.

“Fuck you and your instructions!” I was pissed and my wolf was coming to the surface. “There wasn’t any. : instructions and did you actually believe that I wasn’t going to protect Colt? If there is an opportunity to kill Anthony or Ann, I am fucking taking ie “That’s the problem with being an Alpha. You want the quick kill and don’t appreciate the art of battle anymore. All you did by killing his beta was anger him more so it will up his own attacks. You just screwed yourself by allowing him to know it was you that was behind this.” “Shit, he knew we were going to be behind this from the start.” I leaned back as my anger was dissolving. I was still pissed but not ready to rip his head off.

“He killed his own beta. I wasn’t going to do it. He jumped and I used him for a human shield. He killed his own beta.” Colt was equally pissed off as I was.

“Did anything go according to your plan?” Maddox's eyes met Colt’s and narrowed. “We accomplished everything we set out to do, other than you fucking alphas trying to measure dicks.” “Fuck off, Maddox. Now I remember why dad cut ties. You are a fucking cowboy and do what is best for you.

You didn’t include us in the decision and didn’t even tell us what we were going to be involved in!” “I DID ALL THIS FOR YOU!” Maddox yelled back. “You ctofor help!”

“We wanted to terrorize him, not start awar. You did too much and now he has every right to declare a war.” Jace | said through gritted teeth. “We wanted to sneak and do things without making our presence known. We wanted to stay in the shadows and now that is fucking gone.” “You went in knowing they would start defending their territory. They won’t be on our side anymore. You put insects in people’s homes and | destroyed their water system. Not a single pack member is going to talk to us.” Lars added.

“Just be patient. Let’s see how this plays out.” Maddox seemed unbothered by our attitude. “Don’t forget you ctofor help. Maybe you should have done your own research before contacting me.”

Maddox looked directly at me. “When you ccrawling back, and you will, I may not be there to help anymore, Didn’t your dad teach you not to burn bridges?” “Did you forget what it means to work as a team and not as your men aren’t disposable? Did you forget that every life is worth something?” I challenged back. “Tonight put a bigger target on my family. On all of our families. You fucked each and every single one of us over. Tonight upped their game. We are responsible for thousands of people’s lives. You may not care if your men die but we do. After tonight, you put a hit on your own back. Don’t think for one second that Anthony won't figure out who you are. You need to now sleep with one eye open. When Anthony retaliates, he destroys. You fucked

yourself over just as bad.” My wolf was calm and collected as I delivered each word, looking directly into his eyes. —
