[Gem? Gem can you hear me?] I groan as a voice fills my head, the effects of the wolfsbane finally gone.

[Gem baby where are you?] Ariven! It was his voice reaching me and I bolt up in bed, my heart fluttering with the sound of my mate's voice.

[I'm here!] I link back, a smile forming as I hold back the tears. I haven't herd his for a week and I realized how much I missed him. I missed his warmth and his smile. I just wanted him.

[Geminie where are you?] He asks gently and I took a deep sigh. He would be here soon.

[You were near the entrance before the search party went to the far right bank.] I said, concentrating my mind to feel around the earth.

[The ledge by the will tree, there's an entrance there.] I add quickly, a smile forming on my lips. I had full control of my body and powers now. It was time for war.

Quickly I slide off the bed and onto my feet, quietly stalking my way towards the door.

[We will be there in half an hour.] His voice confirms before the link quiets down. I knew by that I had been kept farthest away from the entrance and I had to make my way there. But there were so many twist and turns to this place I'd get lost.

"The wolves are heading this way sir!" I wolf yells out as I hear approaching steps.

"What do you mean." The soulless King answers and I grin. The irritation and shock in his voice had my body heating up as flames licked at my finger tips.

"I mean they know where she is." The messenger states and I use their destruction to unlock the door before slipping into the hall way of the cave home.

"How is that possible? She is dosed with wolfsbane she shouldn't be able to contact them." I took this as my que to hide in the crook of stones, using the rock to form a blanket over me as the two rush to where I had once been.

"She's gone!" The King roars as he runs out, his chest heaving and veins popping with his rage.

"Where the hell is she?" His voice vibrates around the walls as he shouts, fear seeping into the passageways.

This brought the world into chaos as I watch him shift into a black wolf with red tinted fur, his howl filling the cave and a shiver of fear running down my spine.

He was pissed.

But I was the Future Moon Goddess. I had to put him in his place. I had to stand up for myself.

When the hall way was cleared of wolves I slip out from my hiding spot, running silently as I make my way towards the sounds of wolves searching everywhere for me.

Quickly I hide in the nearest room I could find as wolves run past me. Their eyes blood red and the foul smell filling my nose. I can't wait to get to fresh air and a shower.

With a sight I turn to the room, smiling at the clothes that greeted me. If I wanted to escape I guess the best way would be to look like one of them.

I grab the nearest outfit, my nose crinkling in disgust as I hastily shove them on, happy I had grabbed a hooded shirt. I tuck my hair into the hood and keep my head down as I rush around the cave, pretending to look around like the rest of the wolves as I make my way to what I hope was the exit.

"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE!" It sounded like the soulless king had shifted back to human so I had to make my way quickly out to freedom.

"You." I pause as his voice reaches me and his presence confirms he is behind me.

"Go outside and track her down. Take him with you." A young wolf who looked just as scared as me was pushed into me and I turn to catch him, realizing he must have been sixteen.

"Go now!" We nodd and I let the boy led the way, trying so hard not to laugh at the fact he gave me my own freedom. What an idiot.

[I'm almost outside.] I link to Ariven, a smile on my face as we go through twists and turns to only climb up to an opening. There the water could be heard long before the light to the end, to freedom, could be seen.

"Let's go." The teen says and we rush outside, me taking the lead as I emerge into the forest, a smile on my face before it ends and I am tackle to the ground, a set of sharp teeth snarling at me.

I froze, thinking the souls figured out who I was, my body ready to fight as I tense underneath the wolf, until the wind blew it's scent towards me and I instantly relaxed.

The stupid idiot. I think with a chuckle as I turn my head to look up, the hood falling off my head to show my white curls as my silver eyes searches his.

"Riv it's me." I whisper, tears starting to pool in my eyes as his snarls turned to whimpers and his snout started to nuzzle me. I couldn't help but wrap my arms around his neck as my hands fisted into his fur.

[Gem I'm sorry you smelt like them.] His voice sounded like he was crying and I couldn't help but burry my face into his fur.

"I know I do, it was the only way out." I whisper and he nodds, his wolf shielding me from the others I soon learned were there.

"Alpha are we going to attack?" Mike, a warrior from my pack, asks and I smile.

"Not yet. They are looking for me still." That's when I realize the teenager that was with me and instantly start wiggling out from under my mate, getting to my feet to look for the teen, who - thankfully - decided that kneeling down with his hands over his head was a good idea.

"Did you link them?" I ask and he shook his head.

"I knew who you were the moment he had pushed me at you. The Soulless King had kidnapped me from my family when I was six because I could see the future. I know who you are Goddess Geminie." I couldn't help but kneel infront of him, my hands going to cup his cheek. His eyes were a silver like mine and his hair, even though dirty, was like spun gold.

"You don't have red eyes?" I notice and he chuckles.

"I never gave up hope for freedom." I smile and look back at my wolves that had come to help train my old pack. All of them had been rougues, kicked out from their pack for something the never did, rejected by their mate's or just not good enough. But they were perfect for me.

"What do you all say? Should we let this wolf join our pack?" They all howled with agreement and I couldn't help but stand, offering my hand to the wolf.

"My mother told me about wolves like you. You're an Oracle and she and I will train you. Welcome to my pack." I couldn't help but feel sad as tears form in the teen's eyes as he rushes to give me a hug, his body heaving.

"Thank you." He whispers and I nodd.

"Now let's head back to the guest house, get cleaned up and prepare for war!"
