Fated For Lycan's Luna (Chloe and Blake)

Blake's POV

The night enveloped me in its chilly embrace, casting an eerie silence over the surroundings. Above, the sky displayed a haunting hue of red, as though symbolizing the spilled blood that tainted the world. I found myself seated at my office table, where an overwhelming sense of emptiness permeated my being since Chloe's departure. Deep inside, I felt lifeless, my body moving mechanically to fulfill its duties while my soul remained lost, and my heart hollow.

The purpose that once fueled my existence, embodied by Chloe and our lost child, had vanished without a trace. I believed that nothing could stir me from this state of desolation, until Arthur burst into the room, his eyes filled with a hint of panic. In that moment, my unmoved heart began to race with an unexpected surge of emotions.

Something had gone terribly wrong. With a sense of foreboding, I inquired, "What happened?"

"Blake... there's some bad news," Arthur hurriedly replied, his words hanging in the tense air.

"The Red Moon Pack has been attacked," he continued, his voice filled with urgency. Tremors coursed through my hands, which rested on the table, as I gazed at Arthur, my eyes turning bloodshot.

His hands tightened into fists as he pressed on, "An alliance was formed among the four neighboring packs. The Red Moon Pack stood no chance." The revelation of four packs uniting against us drained the color from my face. Each word Arthur spoke felt like a heavy hammer striking my already wounded heart.

"They launched their attack in the dead of night, during the Red Moon Pack's Alpha's mother's birthday celebration. It all unfolded so swiftly. Within minutes, their defenses were breached, and within hours, the pack had fallen," Arthur reported solemnly. Unable to remain seated, I rose abruptly, my heart pounding in my chest like a thunderous drumbeat.

"What about the pack members?" I forced out the painful question, my voice laced with anguish.

Arthur furrowed his brow, his eyes filled with concern. He then shook his head slightly, his face turning even paler.

"Except for the Alpha, her mother, and the head sentinel, the standing order was to eliminate everyone... Only a few managed to escape. The majority of the Red Moon Pack was swiftly annihilated."

"Damn it!" I cursed, slamming my fist down on the table, my entire body trembling with rage. Within my chest, my heart felt on the verge of exploding.
