The Perfect Luna

The dust was settling down and they saw bodies scattered around the room. It was a terrible sight to see and Riannon gulped as she recognised her friends. It smelled of burnt bodies and blood. An internal scream was desperately trying to leave her body but she knew that this wasn’t the time to sob or panic, so she turned to Maya, who was equally petrified.

“We check their pulses and get them out of here if they are alive. Assess injuries and decide if they need extra help before regeneration kicks in. Especially if their rank is below Gamma,” she instructed and her Beta nodded, “We need to keep them alive until the medics arrive or until they can heal themselves.”

It was easier for her now that she voiced her plan. It was a task that she herself could

concentrate on.

They got to work. One by one they were checking the Lunas who were unconscious. Luckily, most of them had pulses still beating their rhythm. Yet some of them did not. Riannon closed the eyes of Luna Selena as a tear trickled down her cheek. Her mother’s friend did not make it. She remembered how many times she visited The Pearl Moon pack back when she

was still a child and her siblings were alive. It was a true loss…

she heard a noise right next to her and saw some movement under a pile of wood that was once a table. She recognised the red dress at once and rushed to help Luna Ada to get out.

“Hold on,” she mumbled as she was getting the pieces out of her way, “I’ll be there in just

a sec.”

Ada was covered in cuts and breathing heavily. However, Ria was positive that she was going to make it. Her frenemy was of Alpha blood and was supposed to heal quickly.

She got her out and dragged her out of the room in hope that the healers were already there. They always had a few teams ready for each Summit.

“People are already looking for them,” Riannon told her as she placed her on a bench outside, “I am sure he is fine.”

“Your law…did you manage…” the woman had trouble finishing her sentences.

“Yes, we did it,” Ria tried to calm her down, smiling gently as she brushed the hair out of her face, “It worked. Alphas went on a break, so most of them left the building. I am sure your husband is one of them.”

“Good,” the Luna in front of her nodded and waved her off, “Go, help the rest.”

alphas who were unharmed, who joined them, worked through the restaurant, getting out the injured. Now the foyer’s floor was covered with bodies of the ones who died.

The rest were taken outside. Luckily, some of the werewolves were regenerating fast and

some were even able to join the search party.

“I think we are done in that part of the building,” her Beta told her, “The upstairs was not damaged too badly but it would be best to evacuate people in case the building collapses.”

“Yes,” Riannon agreed, “Can you arrange that?”
