My Hockey Alpha

Enzo and the rest of us stared after Lewis and the dean in disbelief as they walked out of the conference room. Were they really not even going to try to help the surrounding towns? I could understand that Cynthia’s main concern was for her campus, but the Fullmoons were the ones who were at war with the Crescents, so I felt as though it should have been their responsibility to mitigate the damages. The excuse that ‘we figured it out, so the other towns could figure it out as well’ was just pathetic and it made my blood boil.

“What are we gonna do?” Matt asked once we were alone again with our new pack. “They’re really just gonna let all of those other people suffer?”

Enzo shook his head as he clenched his jaw so tightly I could see the muscles straining under his skin. He stood abruptly, pushing his chair back.

“We’ll figure something out,” he said. “Let’s meet up again tonight to talk about it. For now… We’re gonna help clean up our campus, because it’s obvious that the Fullmoons aren’t gonna be any help.”

I could tell that Enzo was furious that his father’s own Beta would just let other people suffer at the hands of the Crescents. Good, innocent people who had absolutely nothing to do with this stupid war. And it was all because of whatever power Mountainview had thanks to its purely coincidental location. To Lewis and the Fullmoons, Mountainview was the only town that mattered; everywhere else was just collateral.

Either way, we spent the afternoon doing what we promised and cleaning up our campus. Quite a few students volunteered to help as well, and we spent the day picking up debris that had been created by the Crescents. By late afternoon, the campus seemed mostly back to normal; some things, like doors and windows, would need to be repaired, but thankfully the damage wasn’t too bad.

I wasn’t sure what the Crescents did to her body after they dragged her away, but at this point, I didn’t want to see it anyway. Days of being left out in the woods

Even though our new little pack had somehow managed to defeat the Crescents on our campus and drive them away, we couldn’t handle all of the other towns on our own. By now, for all we knew the Crescents had hundreds, thousands of rogues
