LOGINLittle Destiny could now crawl everywhere and she was fast. When she wanted to go somewhere, she went and there was no stopping her. Crystal decided to have Monica take care of Destiny while she and Killian had work to do and she was honored by this. She was good with Destiny and loved the little child. They were currently sitting outside in the garden and Destiny was crawling in the grass and touching everything she could get her hands on. Monica took Destiny outside every afternoon so she could enjoy the sun. Crystal usually got home before they went inside and loved sitting with them for a bit. Today, she knew Crystal wouldn't be back at her normal time. Rouges had been spotted at the border and Crystal asked Monica to keep Destiny safe.
For the next three weeks, Monica was with Destiny full time as Crystal and Killian were working on border control. She was sitting in the house with her in the main hall of the packhouse when someone burst through the door. Monica stood up in front of Destiny when she noticed it was Danielle, the traitor wolf that tried to get Crystal killed. Danielle stared at Monica and knew she was an omega. What she didn't know was that this omega had some liberties with other pack members and was not to be an omega against non-pack members. Danielle stared down Monica but she kept her nose up.
"An omega acting like she's not. Know your place and back off."
"Never. I've been given my orders to protect this baby. The Luna herself trusts me."
"Your soon to be dead Luna."
Monica straightened her shoulders and stood tall. Danielle charged her and Monica fought back. She moved them away from Destiny. Crystal rushed in and saw the fight and witnessed Monica snap Danielle's neck. She fell limp and crumpled on the floor. Crystal looked at Monica and Monica began to shake. Crystal ran to her and held her for a second to comfort her before picking up Destiny. Killian ran in and Crystal handed Destiny to him and went back to Monica.
"Monica, look at me. Are you okay?"
"I killed her."
"Yes. You saved Destiny's life. Monica, do you know who that was?"
"Danielle. She tried to kill you before."
"Yes, and she would have taken Destiny to Andrew."
"I saved her."
"Yes. Monica, it's okay. You did well."
Monica sat down with Dr. Browning and reviewed her mental state. An omega has never done something like this before. Crystal knew she had to do something. She needed to talk to Killian about everything.
Two weeks had gone by since that day and Monica was still trying to process it. She was a member of this pack and Crystal wanted to do something for her. She found Killian in his office with other members of the pack and they dipped their heads in respect for her as she walked in.
"Excuse me, guys. I need a moment with the alpha."
"Of course, Luna."
Once they were all gone, Killian asked the question on his mind.
"Are you alright, my love?"
"It's about Monica. I'm worried about her. I want to do something for her?"
"Like what? I agree that something should be done."
"You are the alpha and I am the luna which means we have the power to make an omega, not an omega."
"You want to give her a title?"
"I think her main problem is that she is an omega and what she did, an omega would be killed for."
"That makes sense. So what do you want to do?"
"I want to make her a guardian. Specifically, Destiny's guardian."
"I like that. She won't be a high ranking member but she will no longer be an omega."
"I want to have a ceremony for her. I want the pack to know what she did for us."
Killian agreed and Crystal started planning for Monica's guardian ceremony. She told Brandy and Mrs. Randall of the plans. They both agreed Monica needed recognition for what she had done. Crystal just hoped it would help Monica get through this. The pack gathered in the town square and Crystal went to get Monica. Killian waited in the center for them to arrive.
Monica sat in her room, not sure what to do. She thought about leaving or even ending her life. HSe couldn't take it anymore. Mainly, because she was an omega and omegas never do what she did. How could she live with herself? She had to tell Crystal she was leaving. She went to get up and go find her when there was a knock on her door. She opened it and was shocked to find Crystal on the other side.
"Luna?"
"Monica. How are you?"
"I was just coming to talk to you. I can't stay here after what I've done. I can't stand it."
"That's why I'm here, actually. I have been thinking of what you did and I found a solution for you and Killian and I have discussed it with the pack. They all agree with me on this."
"On what?"
"Come with me."
Monica followed Crystal through the packhouse and into town. Monica saw that the whole pack was there and Killian was waiting in the middle. She grew nervous and wondered what it was Luna Crystal had decided. They walked up to the center and Crystal smiled.
"Good evening Blood Moon. As you know, this incredible woman next to me has done something no one of her ranks has ever done. An omega has never killed anyone before, at least not without receiving the death penalty themselves. As you all know, she saved our daughter's life from those who still threaten us. Alpha Killian and I have decided to do something for Monica and I know all of you will agree."
The pack cheered and encouraged Monica. She couldn't believe they all supported her so much. Killian came up with a chalice and handed it to Crystal. She smiled at her mate and Monica watched on as they both drained some of their own blood into it. She was shocked and began to grow nervous. Before she could say anything, Crystal turned back to her with a smile.
"Monica, from this day forward, you will no longer be an omega of Blood Moon Pack. Instead, you will be a guardian of Blood Moon and more specifically, Destiny's guardian. Do you accept?"
Monica was speechless. They were making her a guardian. That's never happened before. She stood shocked and looked out to the pack and saw their faces and saw they all agreed. How could she refuse? As a guardian, she didn't need to feel guilty about what she had done. She smiled at Crystal and accepted their offer.
"I accept."
"From this day forth, you will be known as Guardian Monica. Protector of Destiny Barker."
Crystal handed her the chalice and she drank. Instantly, she could hear the pack. Their voices ringing a welcome and congratulations in her head. She was the first omega to get promoted for killing someone and now she felt pride, especially towards her Luna and Alpha. She was Destiny's guardian and she would continue to protect her as she had done.
Destiny felt hopeful about her future after the meeting with Black Heart went so well. She sat in her room on the window seat and looking down into the garden. She saw her mom run out; laughing as she turned around and saw Killian. He was smiling and laughing and nodding his head as he walked up to Crystal. He grabbed her hand she had outstretched to keep him back and he pulled her to him. He wrapped his arms around her and Destiny started to laugh as he started to dance with her. There was no music or anything, they were in their own world. She saw her mother look up at her father with such love in her eyes as they stood there swaying back and forth. Killian pecked kisses all over her face and it made Crystal laugh as they kissed each other passionately and went to sit somewhere in the garden to enjoy each other's company. Destiny realized then that that was what she wanted with Tim. Her parents were the true definition of mates. They were completely different, yet they were perfec
Six months went by faster than Destiny ever remembered as she and Tim talked non-stop since they found out. They sneaked into the tunnels to see each other but even as impulsive as they both were, they were always mindful of Killian's rule. Timothy had no choice, Killian was Alpha King, but Killian was Destiny's father and she chose to follow his rule. She figured if she broke his one request and something so life-changing, what kind of Luna would that make her. She focused more on what her mother said and did and followed her to every meeting. On small things, Crystal even let her make the decision and put an input in.Today was different. Today there was a meeting of the packs. All Alphas and Lunas would be present and those old enough to attend the meetings that would be alpha or luna next. She knew Alex would go but when Crystal told Destiny she would also go, she was shocked."Mom, this a major meeting.""One that involves you. You will be there."
A few years had gone by since Crystal's breakdown. She had been worried for nothing as the lunas absolutely loved her guidance. Crystal was now standing on her balcony and watching her children play. Destiny was six months away from finding out what her wolf was, and Alex was still a few years from it. Alex had grown more mature since learning and understanding that one day he would take over as Alpha King. His mate would take her place. Destiny just hoped to find her mate, she didn't really care if he was an alpha or not. Destiny was the oldest out of the children her friends had, and she would be the first to turn. Crystal and Kellie kept talking about how close Destiny and Timothy had gotten. They were sure they were mates.Alex was stopped by Killian as he walked out, and Crystal watched him as him as they talked. Alex told Destiny bye and followed Killian inside. Alex had been doing his Alpha training a
************Sorry it took so long for his chapter guys. Needed some inspiration.***********In the weeks that followed their crowning, they had a new sense of responsibility and new energy that flowed through them us they were connected to all the wolves. With this new energy, they couldn't keep their hands off of each other and Killian said it was worse than when they first mated while she was in heat. Every chance they got they were all over one another. It didn't even matter where they were. He'd lock his office and shed lock her. If they were in their bedroom, it was game on for them. Their wolves even did it if they were in their form. It was like they couldn't get enough of each other and they couldn't stop.The day it simmered down, she doesn't remember them ever having sex as much as they did. She followed his scent to their room and saw him standing there. He looked like a sculpted god standing there on the balco
Crystal woke up on the morning of the first day of the ball. All her family was still asleep and the rest of the pack was too. She walked outside and took a breath of fresh air. Kellie came over and sat with her on the bench."Good morning, Luna.""Good morning, Luna.""Ready for tonight?""I am but it's a question if the guys are. Killian hates dressing up. I let him get away with wearing his cowboy boots instead of dress shoes. He says if he's going to dress like a monkey, he wants one part of him to be him.""Makes sense. Samuel loves dressing in the suit and tie.""I know that doesn't bother you.""Not at all."Just then, Destiny came walking out and sat next to Crystal."Good morning, darling.""Morning, momma.""Sleep okay?""Yeah."The three of them sat and enjoyed the crisp mountain air as they waited for the men to rise.After about an hour, Crystal walked back inside while Kel
Since the treaty of the packs was signed, it was agreed that once a year, the packs would come together for one grand ball to honor the treaty. There was an old castle up in the mountains that was dedicated for the event. The old couple who lived there were more than willing and happy to host such an event. They were honored their home was chosen and thought it ridiculous that omegas were given to them to help them maintain the castle. The omegas were happy to help and loved living with them. The packs were so numerous and even kids were allowed to attend. Houses were built around the property to accommodate everyone. Each pack had their part of the property to settle on if anyone brought a tent for camping while they were there.Crystal stood and watched everyone pack in the house. Everyone was coming except for the omegas. These next two weeks would be a vacation for them. They enjoyed the time off and thanked the Luna. Crystal walked through the town and saw everyone prepa
