Chapter 41

Tobias’ POV

We get to the edge of the territory and I stand in front of Shaun and put my arm behind my back. He grabs my wrist and places his hand on the scruff of my neck; walking calmly into Emerald Moon Territory. Dustin comes up to us; I pretend to struggle; “Settle down; your father wants to see you” Shaun says to me. “He can get fucked” I replied; struggling to get free of the grip. “Do you need a hand?” Dustin asked. “I think; I’m right, Dusty. It’s not far to the pack house now” Shaun tells him. He watches us move forward; minimally releasing his grip, when we move out of sight.

We get to the pack house; now the performance is on; “Let go of me; you asshole” “Shut your fucking mouth; before I shut it for you.” “You don’t have the balls” Smack “Fuck you;” I spit in Shaun’s face. All the fake hitting and spitting Olivia and Jessica, came in handy.

Sebastian comes out of his office; “what the fuck is going on out here?” he screams at us. “Look who I found at the Desert Moon territory?” Shaun tells him. “Shaun, you look like shit; where’s Mark” “I don’t know; we got ambushed; I saw Jonny and my only thought was to grab him and get him back here. I reckon we interrogate him about what is going on.” I can see Benji in Sebastian’s eyes and I give him a nod only he would notice.

“Bring him in here” Sebastian booms; and as expected, Aubrey follows us in.

I smirk at both my ex-parents; Aubrey gives me a backhand across my face as Shaun holds me down and dad injects me with ‘No More Wolf’ serum. **“Are you ok Ty?” “Yeah, the cages came up and disappeared at the same time.”**

I smirk again. “Who’s in our territory?” Aubrey yells at me. I just glare at her. I should have expected it but it took me by surprise; I got punched in the stomach by Sebastian. I stare him down; “answer your mother” he screams. I say nothing; she slaps me across the face again. “I won’t ask again; Who is in our territory?” She demands.

I seethe at the pair; “you want to know what’s happening? I’ll tell you. The current Alpha’s and Clan Leader of Emerald moon, Desert Moon and Forrest Clan are here to take back the land you stole. Ramirez is currently at the Forrest Clan territory and Timothy and Alex are at the Desert Moon territory. You have two days to flee or be destroyed. Oh; and Alex has your precious brother.”

“I knew you weren’t Alpha material; an Alpha doesn’t give away that sort of information freely” he spat. “You underestimate me; asshole. That will be you’re undoing.” I received another punch across my chin. Aubrey; kicks me in the stomach “Don’t talk to your father like that” She screams; I continue to glare at them.

“Get him out of here and lock him in his room” Sebastian screams.

Shaun grabs me by the scruff of the neck and drags me out of the room; “I was expecting the dungeon; Sebastian is getting soft” I whisper, as he directs me down the stairs. “He’s more vigilant with Benji. He was pissed, Benji took over his body and released Tim. He’s even more pissed Benji won’t tell him what they spoke about” Shaun whispers back.

“I’m going to love going all Lycan on his ass. I want to see him piss his pants; before I rip his head off” “Did the antidote work?” he asks me “Tyler said the cages went up and disappeared at the same time” I tell him as he pushes me into my room. “I better get back down there, make sure he is calling Blood Moon for support.”

I look around my room; and check my closet. To my surprise; the lock box was still in there. I open the box and pull out the note

Toby; I took everything out and have it with me to give back to you when we get home. I’m not sure if you will be back in your room. Just in case; I left a picture of Liv for you. I know how much it means to have her close by; even if it’s just a picture.

Stay strong brother; We’ve waited 19 years for you to come and find us. I want you to know; we love you. Tim

I pull the picture of Liv out and place it on my bed and put the note in my pocket; lock the box and put it back in the closet.

A mind link comes through; *“Are you ok? Toby” “Kim? Where are you?”* I look out the window. *“The one thing lionesses are good at is staying downwind when we stalk our prey. I was sent to make sure, you’re all good” “Nothing I haven’t dealt with in the past. They have me locked in my room. I told them; now it’s up to Shaun to make sure Blood Moon and Emerald Moon attack.”* I scan the edge of the terrain and spot a creamy blonde tail on the ground. *“I’ll let Jessi know.”* I see Chelsea crawl along the ground toward the border. I smile; Jessi sent her; figures.

Shaun’s POV

“He’s locked away Boss” I say to Sebastian; heading back into the office. “Tell me what happened?” he demanded. I look at him and take a breath; “you know about us leaving to check out the commotion at the Desert Moon territory; we get close and we saw Alex and Jonny kicking a soccer ball around. As we got closer, Mark called out; I think he said; ‘well, what do we have here?’ There were three others, we didn’t see.” “Mark, always jumping the gun; he’s a fuckhead sometimes” Sebastian scoffed.

I chuckled and continued “They shifted. There was a bear, lion and another wolf; I think they were guarding Jonny and Alex. There was a scuffle and the lion scratched me up; the bear and wolf took on Mark. I got around the Lion and grabbed Jonny and dragged him into our territory as quickly as I could.”

“Do you know who they are?” He asked me, “I don’t remember their names but I do know they are Alex’s chosen enforcers. I met them at the picnic; when we took Jonny the first time around.”

**“Please don’t ask me anymore questions about the picnic”** I complain to Oscar, “I never did ask you; why were you invited to the picnic in the first place?” **“And he asks”** Oscar laughs; I look at Sebastian. “You told me to gain his confidence; so, I did. Alex only appointed the enforcers the day before and they invited a few friends and their mates. I asked if I could tag along and Jonny agreed.”

“What do you think we should do?” “Should do?” I question; trying to slow my pulse a bit. “About them trying to take back their territories” he elaborates. Here goes nothing; “oh, if Jonny is telling the truth and I think he is; we need to contact Raymond for assistance. We can get him to attack Forrest Clan while we take care of Desert Moon” I tell him. “I think you are right; I’ve already contacted Raymond. I’ve also contacted Brenda from Ruby Moon and both have agreed. We will keep Ruby Moon between the two borders and if they push us back, they can pounce.”

“Sounds like a great plan, Boss. What are we going to do about Mark?” I ask. He chuckles; "let him sit in their dungeons for a few days; might bring him down a peg or two. We’ll get him when we defeat them again.”

I nod. **“I need to text this information to Tim, to pass onto the others”** I tell Oscar; **“I agree.”**

“Do you need me for anything else?” I ask Sebastian. “No; you can go.” I nod to Sebastian and walk out the door. I calmly head up to my room; grab my phone and walk into the bathroom; turning on the shower.

‘Sebastian bought it. He has Ruby Moon coming as well. They will be holding back between 2 territories until the end’ and I hit the send button
