Alex's POV

We've stayed at the Red Moon pack for a week and a half now, helping to get the pack up and running.

Alpha James loved it, Xavier was helping him and showing him the ropes, much more than he normally would have in the past, I think he knew it was hard for me to leave Lilly. She was my first friend at the palace outside of Xavier's family. I would miss her terribly.

Lilly and I, along with most of the pack females had repainted the entire pack house and rearranged everything, giving it a new inviting feeling and warmth it had been missing.

After hearing how long James had been waiting to find Lilly and not having the chance to look for her, I had been mulling over the idea to have all the packs send their unmated wolves starting at age 18 to the palace every 3 to 5 years for a mating ball. Giving them a greater chance to meet their mates sooner. I would have to talk with Xavier about it though.

Currently Lilly and I were in her office going over her Luna Ceremony plans that was due to take place tonight. Lilly was a going to be an amazing Luna. I had already promised Lilly that I would pack up and ship the rest of her things. And she promised to keep in touch. After the ceremony Xavier, Fergus, Jimmy, David and I would have to leave so we could visit the other packs.

As we were putting the finishing on the plans Fergus and James busted through the door.

"T-they took..rogues...ambush.." They were both panicked, panting and out of breath.

"Slow down what's going on?" I asked taking in her appearance. Their clothing was ripped and James was bleeding from his side.

"They took him, they came out of no where and shot all of us with darts filled with silver and wolfsbane we couldn't shift." James said holding his side as Lilly rushed over to him.

"Who did they take?" I roared already fearing I knew who.

"The King." Fergus said.

"We fought back, we killed a lot of them, but they shot him twice with the silver. Before we could get to him they knock him out with a third shot and took him." James said.

I stayed calm and closed my eyes, focusing on Xavier, letting Celeste come forward. She could find him, something told me she could.

After pin pointing where his life force was I pushed out the feel the wolves around him, there was about 20 of them. My eyes snapped open shinning silver and I dashed out of the house.

Xavier's POV

As my eyes opened my head lulled back and I looked above me. I was hanging by my wrists from silver chains. I looked down and saw my legs shackled together leading to a chain bolted to the floor. I couldn't feel my wolf at all.

"Well if it isn't the King." A familiar voice said with laughter.

"Oliver." I growled

"We were going to take that annoying Queen of yours and kill her, but she stayed in the pack house destroying my life's work. You'll do though, but I won't kill you because I've got plans for you.

You see your going to mate with my daughter and make her the Queen, and your going to give my Alpha title back to me and consolidating maybe say all of America under my rule as compensation for what you did to me, but first I'm going to carve out my pound of flesh for the humiliation you made me suffer." He said holding up a silver blade with a wicked smile.

He walked behind me cutting my half torn shirt off and started carving in my back. I held in a groan, I was not going to give him the satisfaction.

I'm not sure when, but darkness consumed me and I welcomed it with open arms.

When I came to I was chained to a bed spread eagled with blood pooling under me, soaking the dirty mattress I was on. "Good your awake." I heard a female voice say as Charlotte came into view.

"I was worried I would have to start with out you." She said coming closer. I saw she didn't have any cloths on and it made me want to vomit.

"Get away from me." I growled.

"Is that anyway to treat with your mate?" She said pouting.

She started to unbutton my pants and I tried to kick her away from me, the shackles stopping me.

She succeeded in getting my pants and boxers down and she started touching me, she put my length in her mouth and started sucking, after getting no reaction from my body as my insides churned with disgust she stopped.

"Stop it! I will enjoy kill you." I growled at her

"I didn't want to do this, but you've left me with no choice." She said walking over to a table and coming back with a syringe.

She injected it into the base of my penis and to my horror I started standing at attention.

"There we go, see the humans are great for somethings. This concoction will keep you ready for me for hours." She said stroking my length.

Alex's mark on my neck started to burn. I grunted in pain as she straddled me and lowered her self onto my length, meeting no resistance what so ever, whore. She started bouncing on me and the burning became a searing pain. I wouldn't be surprised if my body erupted in flames at this point.

Charlotte screamed as she climaxed. I, however, did not.

"Come on baby it's no fun if you don't react. You know you love having me ride your cock." She purred next to my ear.

I stared blankly the wall of my cell, feeling disgusted with myself and dirty.

She started kissing up my torso, sliding her slimy tongue all over me and reaching my neck trying to get to Alex's mark, I kept my head turned to protect it from her canines.

"Fine have it your way." She growled getting off of me, I heard shuffling then my cell door closing.

A few minutes later Charlotte came back, clothed, with two men.

"If you don't enjoy being with a woman maybe you'll enjoy being with a man." She said with a smirk on her face.

For the first time in all my life I was truly afraid.

"I thought you said we'd get to fu*k the hot Queen, not some dude." One of them said with a disgruntled face.

"A royal is a royal and a hole is a hole." Charlotte said rolling her eyes.

"Not happening." The one guy said looking mortified.

The other rogue who had remained quite look at me with a smirk. "She's right a hole is a hole." He said walking over to my bed.

He crawled on me and positioned himself between my legs and lower his pants rubbing himself. He lifted my balls roughly up and lined up his tip with my bottom as I struggled.

"If I were you I'd relax, tensing up will only cause it to hurt worse." Charlotte said laughing.

I closed my eyes waiting for the pain when a thunderous growl shook the entire earth.

"What was that?" One of the men asked fear creeping into his eyes.

"That would be my Queen." I said smiling like a idiot.

All three of them rushed out of the dungeon not bothering to shut or lock my cell door.

I don't know how long it was, but all I heard was growls and screams.

Suddenly the door to the dungeon was busted open and my beautiful mate came in, her silver fur was coated with red and she had a head hanging out of her mouth. She dropped the head and it rolled towards me. Charlotte.

Alex shifted back in her human form and came over to me. She broke the chains around me setting me free. She helped me stand up and pulled my pants back up buttoning them, not commenting at my raging hard on from the drugs.

I could only imagine what she thought.

When I tried to take a step I almost fell. The silver and wolfsbane weakening me to the point I wasn't able to function properly.

Alex then picked me up like I weighed nothing, bridal style and started caring me out.

"I don't want the other pack members to see me like this." I said trying to get down.

"Shhh.. It's ok. No one is here but us love. When we get within range of the pack house I'll set you down." She said.

"They didn't come with you?" I asked looking her over to see if she was hurt.

"No, they would have only slowed me down." She said walking out of the dungeon. As we walked through the house I had been kept in it looked like it was painted red, only the red paint was still wet.

I placed my head in her neck taking in the comfort she always brings me. I know we must have looked odd, her carrying my huge frame in her arms. I was disgusted with my self over what had happened to me and what was about to take place. How could she even look at me the same way after being so weak that I couldn't save myself from... Charlotte. I know she had felt it.
