Tattooed Luna by Mrs Smith

Chapter 0540 Emmy laid our dresses down in the back as we piled back into my jeep.

“That was so much fun!” Penny was extra excited for her dress.

“I can’t wait! This ball will be so much fun.” Emmy started dancing as I put the car in drive. The snow was really coming down to the point that it felt more like a blizzard than just regular SNOW.

“Ice, you're getting a call.” Emmy said as she handed me back my phone.

“Hey, love. What’s up?” “It’s getting pretty bad out. Where are you girls?” Alec seemed a little worried.

“Headed home. I'm driving slow and

just got on the highway.” “Good. Did you guys find dresses?” Alec seemed distracted but he would have hung up if he didn’t want to make sure we made it okay.

“We did. I'm really excited fo-" “KRISTEN! WATCH OUT!” Emmy screamed. She pointed to the tree line and four rogues came charging out.

“What's happening?” I heard Alec asked as I had only a second before they slammed into my jeep.

“ALEC!” I screamed as my phone went flying out of my hands. End over end, my jeep rolled down the side of the bank and landed in a small frozen stream. The stream empted into a small pond below.

It took me a second to focus but as 2/0

| soon as reality came shooting back, so did the noise. The snarls of the rogues trying to get into my jeep were.

something else but it was Penny crying that caught my attention.

The jeep was on the side and Penny’s arm was stuck between the jeep and the frozen ground. I was laying on top of Emmy who was trying to move.

“Ice!” She said weakly. Looking at her, she pointed at the windshield. It was completely shattered but what I could see was a rogue, looking at me... yet he wasn’t dirty or even foaming at the mouth.

“Emmy, does that look like a rogue to you?” I asked as the snarls stopped. I could see them circle the jeep, trying to find a way in. The issue was, Alec had this jeep reinforced. Penny had to have

had her window cracked for it to shattered like it was.

“No. They don’t.” Bl Suddenly, the jeep started to lift up and fall back down. “AWWW” Penny screamed as it came crashing down on her arm again.

“Shit, they are trying to flip us over.

Where is my phone?” “Here.” Emmy held up a completely busted phone. “Alec heard us though.

He will come, right?” Looking at Emmy, I could see the fear in her eyes. “Yes but until then, Emmy, we are going to have to fight. Put your fear away and pull our that inner warrior.” “What about Penny?” Emmy nodded and I could see the shift in her wolf.

“Penny can’t fight. We are going to have to hold them off till help gets here.” As soon as I said this, the jeep flipped around and landed back on it’s wheels.

“Ready?” Emmy asked as she looked back at Penny.

“AARRGG!” Penny moved to the other side of the jeep. A rogue had put his head in the window, trying to get her.

Climbing over the center console, I tried to kick the rogue has hard as I could in the nose. It worked enough that I could use the door and slam it into his head. “NOW!” I yelled. Emmy and I jumped out and shifted into our wolves. Within seconds, we stood between four rogues and Penny.

“Ice, these aren’t rogues.” Emmy said in the mind-link.

“I know but I am a fucking alpha and you are my beta. Use your strength and take these fuckers down.” I said as Sierra snapped at one that was getting too close. One of them jumped and she met them in the air.

Using her hind legs, she kicked it back and landed on one trying to get to Penny. Bitting down on his shoulder, it reared back trying to throw me.

Sierra used it to toss the rogue off to the side as the first one came back.

Dodging the lunge, she kicked in the head. Right as she went in for the kill, a sharp pain erupted on her thigh.

As much as it hurt, it only pissed her off more. Using her claws, she grabbed his neck and dug them in. His teeth

instantly leg go but she pulled her other hand around and dug her claws in. Pulling it apart, his neck split wide open, almost completely decapitating him.

The original wolf came barreling into Sierra, sending her into another wolf that was trying to get Emmy. The three of us rolled down the hill a bit more before our wolves broke the ice.

Sierra was not a swimmer and instantly changed back into our human form. Since I had the lead, I tried my best to grab ahold of the ice.

Something sharp dug into my ankle and pulled me under.

Looking down, the rogues had shifted and the guy was trying to use my body to pull himself back up. The water was pressing down on us, making it hard to

kick him loose but somehow I managed.

My lungs cried for air as I reached the surface. “KRISTEN!” I heard Emmy as I struggled to grip something. The ice was slippery with the water.

“EMMY!” I screamed. “BEHIND YOU!” All I saw was more wolves coming down the hill. My body was giving out and I was struggling to stay above the water.

Something brown got tossed into the water. I wasn’t sure what it was but I grabbed it. Pulling me up, I didn’t have the strength to grip it enough and I fell back in.

Pictures of Alec holding Adalynn flashed before my eyes as my lungs filled up with water. The cold stopped feeling cold and a warmth surrounded

me. More pictures of Adalynn smiling, laughing and then pictures of Alec holding me, telling me he loved me. It was all I could do but smile as the surface of the water got further and further away.
