Episode 16

Maia’s POV

The supreme calling me mom was funny, but having part of Luna in me may have caused this situation. The presentation was incredible but the whole time I felt like I was being watched, after the dance that feeling got worse, I looked to the sides and saw Helena, I already knew she was looking at me but it wasn’t her look that was bothering me.

Lucca: You don't have to participate in the challenge, love…

Maia: Love?

Lucca: Yes, my love…

I smiled and kissed his lips but suddenly I smelled a familiar smell, I ran my eyes around and saw those who have already been arrested, I see Brendon running with Mirtes towards us.

Brendon: Alpha, we're under attack, this smell is a sleeping pill for wolves.

Maia: I knew I knew that smell.

Mirtes: It's mixed with hallucinogen.

Lucca: Tell everyone to go to the hideouts, let's organize and focus on defense and then counterattack.

Brendon: Yes, Alpha.

An endless rush begins, the smoke getting thicker.

Maia: Wet towels and put them on your faces, protect yourselves from the smell...

Several towels were distributed as people ran, I looked for the supreme and saw him with his hand on his head and his Companion trying to put a towel on him. I ran towards him and as soon as he sees me his eyes light up.

Estefan: Mommy, I missed you so much, this girl wants to force me to cover my face.

(Use my self-control to help, I know it's the hallucinogen and it's no use arguing.)

Maia: Yes, my love, put the towel on, I asked for it.

Estefan: Oh, okay.

He takes the towel and puts it on his face and looks at me…

Estefan: I'm going to shelter the girl and I'll be back to help.

The smoke was getting thicker and thicker, I couldn't see anything in front of me anymore, and even with the towel I felt dizzy and tired, this feeling I know well, I kneel down to see if I can see anyone but I see a lot of people fallen, I hear a voice in the background that I swore I wouldn't hear anymore...

Woman: Found you, project 27…

Maia: Erica.

Erica: Didn't forget your friends. Take her away.

I black out afterwards…

Lucca’s POV

The smoke was getting thicker and thicker and when I realized it I couldn't see an inch in front of me, I can't identify where Maia is and that makes me anxious, I go back to where I was before hoping to find her but nothing.

Brendon: Alpha, Alpha, where are you?

Lucca: Here…

He approaches and I see that he is hurt.

Lucca: What happened?

Brendon: Bruno and William hid the people, Attila is trying to find the main elder and I was in charge of finding you. Come.

Lucca: I didn't hear you mention Maia.

Brendon: Didn't she go to the hideout?

Lucca: Let's go see.

We ran and went towards the hideout and I went out hunting among the people for my beloved, after trying a lot we left to find it when we could smell it, we took care of the elderly and the wounded. Almost an hour passed and the smoke from the square slowly dissipated...

Mirtes: Where is she?

Lucca: I don't know. She isn't here?

Mirtes: No, Alpha, she didn't come here.

I run out of the hideout and search the middle of the square for a body or something to lead me to where it is. But my despair is even greater when I find nothing and one day soldiers. Hegar all wounded.

Soldier: They took the Luna.

Lucca: Which way?

Soldier: East, sir.

He is helped by my men and I follow where he spoke, already feeling Dexter wanting to go out.
