Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna

Ch 35 How Long

Thea wished she could shift and run. Feel the wind rustle through her fur.

“Luna!” Oz called out after her.

“I can’t stay in there forever!” she yelled.

She knew they were probably mind linking the Alpha, Liam, and the whole Delta team to get orders. They’d tell them to subdue her and drag her back to the pack house.

“I just need a minute!” she added.

She pushed herself faster than she’d ever run before. Her muscles screamed at the exertion.

Into the woods. Past trees. She made it halfway to the border before the entire Delta team, minus Liam, ran up next to her in wolf form, encircling her.

She was surprised when they didn’t stop her. Instead, they ran alongside her in a protective circle. The wolf in front led the way. He turned away from the border but not back toward the pack house. He led them in a circle around the territory.

Tears started to build as she ran. Her vision blurred. Thea slowed to a stop. The wolves circled her.

Thea sobbed and fell to her knees. The wolves let out high-pitched whines. After a moment, a few of them approached her, heads down, ears and tails down. 

She didn’t tell them to stop. She knew them all, even in wolf form. It was Landon, Maverick, Jonah, and Logan. They laid down next to her like a dog would when its owner was sad. After a while, her crying slowed.

“You all know everything, right?” Thea said. Maverick trotted off and came back in his human form and basketball shorts. His tawny hair looked the same as always in his short crew cut. Thea wondered if Delta team kept their hair that way so they never had to waste time styling it.

“Yes, Luna,” he said.

“How long have you been following me, watching me, without me knowing?”

“Delta team was created for the sole purpose of protecting you, Luna,” Maverick said.

I’ve never had a moment of privacy, have I?” He didn’t answer. His
