The Triplets' Fighter Luna

KODA POV

I just tried to call Tyler again for the third time but it kept ringing out so I put my phone down.

"He's not answering." I said.

"Do you think he could be in trouble?" Dean asked.

"No. I think he doesn't want to leave her house. He's too busy watching her and that's more important than what's going on here." I said. "Watching who?" Dad asked, walking into the room.

"Oh. Um, it's just this new girl at school." Dean said, caught off guard.

"We think that her parents are abusing her. She's always got stitches or bruises on her." I

added.

"A new girl at school. That would be Nova. Wouldn't it? She's the only new girl that's started here recently." Dad said, sitting down.

"Yeah. That's her." Dean said.

"I'm sure she'll be fine. Tyler needs to be here to deal with pack business." Dad said.

"He's not answering his phone." I said.

"Well, I'll talk to him when he gets back." Dad said.

"So dad, you were saying something about a possible threat to our pack?" Dean asked, trying to change the subject.

"There have been some wolves in the area. They don't belong here. They don't cross the border into our territory but they do hang around the border. Like they are trying to get a look at what's going on." Dad said.

"But there are humans living here. How could they think an attack was a good idea? I mean,

innocent people could be hurt." I said.

"I know that. Which is why we need to figure out what they want. I'm going to go and meet with them. I want you boys to stay here until I tell you otherwise." Dad said. "Why can't we come? We might be able to help defuse the situation." I said.

"No. I don't think you can. I think it's best if you all stay out of sight." Dad said, staring into his

"Alright. What aren't you telling us?" I asked.

Dad kept staring into his drink before he finally looked up at myself and Dean and I could tell that he had something to tell us but he was torn between telling us or keeping it from us. "If you don't tell us yourself then you know we are going to find out from somewhere else."

Dean said.

Dad nodded his head. Knowing how stubborn we are and that we would definitely find out. "I think these wolves are after you." Dad said.

"So, the threat is actually real? Those other Alpha's ended our alliances because they didn't want to be associated with us in case it got them killed. We thought they were being paranoid. "I said.

"They weren't. There are a lot of people out there who think triplet Alpha's is going to be the end of their packs or their species. There's a lot of species out there that don't like the fact that we had triplets and agreed to let you all take over the pack. Instead of appointing just the oldest to be the Alpha." Dad explained.

"We have no interest in world domination or whatever it is that they think we want." Dean said. "I know. But they don't know that. Which is why I need you boys to stay away from the border. And I need to know where you are at all times. Tyler is a little too close to the border right now.

I think he needs to come home and stay away from that girl's house." Dad said.

"We'll tell him when he gets back that he can't go that far out again." I said.

"I want you to go and find him. Bring him home. I already know that there are creatures

hanging around the border. But right now we've only seen wolves. We don't know what else is

out there. And these other creatures won't obey our border rules." Dad said.

So Dean and I looked at each other and we knew that we had to go back to Nova's house and get Tyler.

So we stood up and I grabbed a file off of the table that I received earlier today and we left the house. 

We went straight back to Nova's house but they weren't there.

We picked up Tyler's scent pretty quickly and we followed it into the forest behind her house

until we came to a walking trail and we followed it all the way through the forest.

"Where does this even lead?" Dean asked.

"I don't know. I've never been out this way before. There was never any reason for us to be out

here." I said.

"Where the hell could they be going?"

"Well, Nova likes to hike. Maybe she went on a hike and Tyler followed her." I suggested.

"Yeah. I guess that makes sense." Dean shrugged.

Pretty soon we heard some people talking. One of them was definitely Tyler and we approached slowly until we got to the treeline and there was a break in the forest to reveal a large opening. It was still surrounded by trees but the clearing was bare with just green grass and a few wild flowers on the ground.

We sat Tyler standing in the middle of the clearing and Nova was sitting on the ground, leaning back on her hands and her face was leaning up towards the sun that was rapidly setting.

"Do you always come out here at nighttime?" Tyler asked.

"You mean, in the forest?" I asked.

"Yeah." He said.

"I guess. You've met my parents, right?" She asked, being sarcastic. Knowing that we had.

"Good point. It's not safe out here at night." Tyler said.

"It's safer than my house." She admitted.

So Tyler sat down next to her.

"Stop staring at me." She said, without even looking at Tyler.

"How did you know I was staring? Your eyes are shut." Tyler said.

"Because I'm a freaking genius." Nova scoffed and Tyler chuckled.

"There's no crime about staring." Tyler said.

"What the hell is going on here?" Dean whispered.

"I don't know. They're actually getting along and she's not yelling at him." I whispered back.

"Alright, where were we?" Tyler asked.

"Favorite hobby." Nova said.

"Right. Well, I don't really have a hobby." Tyler said.

"Bullshit. You've gotta have a hobby. Everyone does." Nova said.

"What's yours? Apart from hiking." Tyler said.

"Drawing." Nova said.

"You're an artist." Tyler said.

"I try to be." Nova said.

"Alright. Different question. Favorite animal." Tyler said.

"Well, that's easy. Wolf." Nova said. And Dean and I looked at each other in shock.

No one ever says wolf. That was way out of left field and we were all curious as to why she would say that.

"Why?" Tyler asked.

"Because they are considered apex predators which means they can definitely take care of themselves. And they look completely free. They look like they have not got a care in the world. They don't have to worry about going home to their parents and having bottles being thrown at them or being accused of stealing their food or trying to seduce their mothers' boyfriends or husbands." Nova explained.

Dean and I looked at each other and we realized that her home life was a hell of a lot worse than we realized it was.

"Does your mother really do that? Accuse you of trying to seduce her husband? Does she stop you from eating their food?" Tyler asked. And Nova finally looked at him.

"Suns going down. Better get back." Nova said, standing up. Obviously avoiding the question.

Dean and I stayed out of the way while Tyler and Nova walked back to the house and then Tyler started walking into the forest as soon as Nova was inside and he saw us standing in front of him. "Did you like the little show in the clearing?" Tyler asked.

"Dad said that we had to get back. All of us. There are wolves and possibly other creatures hanging around the border. But I brought this because someone who dropped it off said that

you have been asking about it. And I figured you didn't want dad to see it." I said, handing him the file. So he opened it and started looking through the pages.

"What is that?" Dean asked.

"Everything that we need to know about Nova. And the people that she's been involved with in

the past." Tyler said.

"Anything interesting?" I asked.

"She's moved around a lot. Her mother has had a lot of boyfriends. Only one husband. Nova's father is unknown. I think that's where we need to dig further. We need to find out who her father is." Tyler said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because we just do. If you don't want to then fine, I'll do this s**t on my own." Tyler said, storming off in front of us.

"I think he's more invested in Nova now than us two." Dean said.

"That's because he just spent all afternoon with our mate. We haven't had the luxury of doing that yet." I said as we started walking after him.
