My Miracle Luna
Their Gemini Wolves Chapter 25

{Chad's P.O.V.}

There was no doubt about it-s**t had just hit the fan. We all stood in Richard's office, completely overwhelmed by the newest update. He had just returned and immediately mind-linked me along with Brent and Jackson to join him; in addition, he summoned Luna Rylee and the girls to come as well. Mr. Rossi and Olivia had also finally joined us. He wasted no time at all and told us how Alpha Xavier of Black Moon was involved in all of this. "J..." Lexie said softly.

"You guys knew her?" I asked, and both she and Lanie nodded.

"She was only a couple of years older than us. She was the only other werewolf there. At least that we know of," Lanie answered. "We always wondered where she came from." "We were so sad when she left and never came back," Lexie mentioned.

"When was this?" I asked them.

"Ummm..." Lanie hummed, biting her bottom lip with a thoughtful expression on her face.

"It had to have been two, maybe three years before we escaped," Lexie replied.

"Richard, I don't understand. I've never heard of a Jade Wolf before," Luna Rylee stated.

"They're not as rare as you may believe, Luna. Rare, but not as much as you, or even the girls here. Jade wolves are born more frequently than our kind realizes," Richard responded. "What makes them so special?" Brent asked.

"Jade wolves are able to shift when they are infants. Most are born in their wolf form," Beta Jackson answered.

"What?!" I exclaimed. "Are you saying that they're born like ... a... puppy?" I asked to make sure I understood correctly.

"Not exactly, my dear boy. Jade wolves are born in wolf form, but not in a sack, like a dog would give birth. Their births are very unique because although they are in wolf form, they are born naturally the same way a human gives birth, with the umbilical cord attached to the belly button. As soon as a Jade Wolf pup feels the presence of their parents, they immediately shift back into their infant form," Jackson explained.

"What do Jade Wolves look like? I mean, if Marvin was told that Xavier's daughter was a Jade Wolf, he would have needed proof," Luna Rylee pointed out.

"Yes, Luna, you are indeed correct. The biggest proof of verification is the fact that a Jade Wolf can shift even as a child because they are born with their wolf spirit. Not like the rest of us who gain our wolves when we become of age at 18. Additionally, the name Jade Wolf isn't just called that for no reason. They are called that because they are in a Jade Wolf. They are jade-green with green and silver eyes."

"WHAT!?" we all exclaimed.

"How the hell can there be a green wolf?" Brent asked.

"It's not as far-fetched as you may think," Lune Rylee said to us. We all looked at her. "As you two may already have figured out, I'm not a normal wolf." Brent and I just nodded, Beta Jackson c****d his head. Luna Rylee took a deep breath and looked over at Mr. Rossi who only nodded as well. "I am what the Elders call a Primordial. A special wolf that is only born to two pureblooded Alphas every two to three hundred years. I am also the last female born, and in my case, that was important because I had to fulfill some kind of prophecy."

"The vampire attack last year," I said, to which she just nodded.

"Lorenzo here is also a Primordial. He's my forefather. It's hard to explain because Lorenzo never had children of his own. As I already stated, our kind can only be born to two pureblooded Alphas. We're blessed with abilities by the moon goddess and the other elders of the supernatural."

"That explains the freaky super speed and strength we saw back at Blue Lake," Brent said.

"In addition to enhanced werewolf capabilities, Rylee and I have other powers. Telepathy, telekinesis, the ability to control the mind of you and your wolf, premonition, and the power to control Earth's elements. Rylee is blessed with the power of regeneration," Mr. Rossi further explained.

"You know Victor's mate, Dianna?" the Luna asked Brent directly.

"Yeah."

"She was originally a vampire. Turned by the blood-sucking monster that I killed. When I abandoned my pack, Olivia had given me a new identity, and I actually looked like Dianna."

"Wait, Luna? Are you saying that girl I saw when I went to go get Killian for the first time... the brunette?" I exclaimed.

"Yeah... That was me in disguise."

"Then who was the person who looked like you!?"

"A clone that a dark witch created for Wyatt because he is an idiot." I didn't have anything to say to that. I looked over at Beta Jackson who was just as confused as I was. When I glanced at Richard, he just shook his head. He knew all of this already. "Anyway, that's beside the point. My point is, Jennifer, being a green-colored wolf isn't so crazy. And I say this because my wolf used to be pink."

"PINK!?!" we all shouted.

"You said used to be, Luna? What color is she now?" Beta Jackson asked.

"She's light blue."

"I didn't know a wolf could change colors," I brought up.

"In normal cases, they don't," Mr. Rossi said, catching my attention. "But in Rylee's case, she was part of a long foreseen prophecy and when her wolf matured to her full powers and abilities, her color changed. At first, we believed it was due to the disguise Olivia had placed on her when she turned into Megan. However, after further research, that wasn't the case.

"Also, my understanding is that the Jade Wolf isn't actually green," Olivia said, tapping her chin. "The last Jade Wolf I ever saw was more of black with a green hue to his fur. When light touched it at a specific angle. It is not uncommon to mistake the Jade Wolf as being green due to this factor."

"Okay, all of this is great information, and I'm obviously learning a lot right now, but how do we find Xavier's daughter while keeping our mates safe?" Brent asked.

"Mates? So, have the girls accepted the two of you?" Richard asked excitedly.

"Well ... Uh..." I looked over at Lanie who was looking off to the side, ignoring me. "That's yet to be determined, sir."

"Lexie and I talked it over. We're not at that point yet, but we did agree to take things slow," Brent answered.

"Luna? I thought you said that you were going to speak with them?" Richard asked her.

"I did, Richard. But you, more than anyone in this office, should know that the mate bond should never be forced. At least the girls aren't going to flat out reject them. They're taking things slow. Brent is a newborn, Lexie and Lanie are still learning to be wolves while trying to figure out who they are as individuals separate from being werewolves. They were given mates in a whole other pack the same time the person who made their lives living nightmares showed up at my pack territory faking an invitation to the Alpha's meeting. This weekend has been difficult for everyone, even you. Don't sit there and berate me for not forcing the girls to accept their mates. I said I would speak to them to get them to understand. I never once said that I would force the bond on them." Luna Rylee was really frustrated at Richard's insinuation that she didn't do anything to help Brent and me.

"You're right, I apologize Luna. I guess my old age is making me senile. But we have to decide what we are going to do come Monday evening. Jackson and I have to announce our retirement and name Chad my successor, and Brent as Jackson's," Richard said looking

at me.

"Richard, we can still make the announcements. They just need to pick a Gamma, and they can decide what to do about announcing that they have mates or not. The Luna is correct, we cannot force these young ladies to accept them," Jackson said putting his hand on Richard's shoulder. "Old friend, you and I both know that the pack will be in good hands with Chad and Brent in charge."

"You are correct Jackson, as always. I always knew I did right by making you my Beta," Richard replied with a smile.

"Sir, while we're on the topic of leadership in the pack," I began to say and grabbed his attention. "I think I know who I want my Gamma to be."

"YOU WANT ME TO WHAT!?!" Maverick, our head guard exclaimed when I announced that I wanted him to be the Gamma and run the pack alongside Brent and me.

"I think Mav is a fine choice, Chad. He'll make a great Gamma," Jasper, our previous Gamma stated. When I made my decision, I had Richard mind link both of them to come to the office. We asked that the Luna and the girls go back to my mother's place and wait for us there, while Mr. Rossi and Olivia were being shown to their guest room in the packhouse by an Omega. It wasn't because we were trying to get rid of them, the reason being we didn't want to explain everything to Maverick right away. He was someone I knew could be trusted with the girls' secret. The Luna stated that she really doesn't care who knows about her at this point and had no issues with me telling Maverick who she was when the time was right.

"I ... I... I ..." Maverick stuttered. Brent and I smirked at just how caught off-guard he was by the news. "Why!?"

"Come man, do you really have to ask?" I asked him. "You're the head guard. You're smart, quick on your feet, and you have the respect of the pack. Especially the other guards and warriors. You trained me, and Brent. That is until we both surpassed you. But that goes to show how well you trained us. The students became the teachers and now, these teachers are going to run this pack when Richard and Jackson announce their retirement in two days' time." "Seriously!? You're becoming Alpha?! And you want me to be your Gamma!? I'm a f*****g Omega!!"

"So am I. So is Brent! Hell, Brent is even lower than an Omega. He's a f*****g newborn!" I joked, which made Brent glare at me.

"Maverick, my boy, take the position. If there is someone I trust more than Chad to take that spot, it's you," Jasper said to him, patting him on the back.

"..."

"Come on man," Brent said to him. "The three of us are already close friends. You guys showed me how to be a werewolf and a guard. I would be honored to run this pack with you guys."

"You always said you wanted to get away from training, did you not? Training is the Beta's job, so you would be in charge of pack logistics and keeping the peace between pack members. You already do that as it is when a fight breaks out. And you do it without having to get physical, or at least not much," I told him. Maverick just stared and said nothing. I could see the cogwheels turning in his head as he considered my offer.

I saw his gaze revert back to Jasper next to him, who just smiled and nodded. Then his gaze fell upon Richard and Jackson, and I could see in my peripherals that they also nodded their heads. Finally, he turned his eyes back to me, and I smiled at him. He took a deep breath and looked at the floor while he exhaled. After what felt like an hour of silence, Maverick let out another sigh and nodded his head. He looked up and smiled. I smiled in return. Brent slapped him on the back hard and laughed with delight. "I am here to serve you, Alpha Chad," Maverick said, making me laugh.

"Then it's settled! We have our new ranked members of Golden Moon!" Richard bellowed in his Alpha tone.

"A fine trio of young men to take our places," Jackson said with a nod.

"I couldn't agree more. Now you too can finally join me in retirement," Jasper said to Richard and Jackson, making us all smile and laugh.

"How is that none of us had, boys?" Jackson asked.

"Don't know, don't care. I love my girls, and they're serving their roles just fine at their packs. My life has come full circle," Jasper answered, and Richard just nodded.

I wanted to give this time to Maverick so he could fully enjoy his new promotion to a ranked werewolf. Whatever we did in our lives to deserve this kind of blessing, none of us knew, but we're not going to take it for granted. Especially me. I was dealt a pretty shitty hand when I met Terrine and was rejected via hotel notepad, and the only good thing to come out of that messed-up mate bond was Killian. Now, whatever the moon goddess wanted of me, she's mated me with Lanie. Her own daughter.

I already knew what my first order of business as the new Alpha of Golden Moon was going to be. Well, more like my second order of business. The first would be to get Maverick caught up on everything and to make sure he knew how important Lanie and Lexie were. I had no doubt in my mind that he would do whatever it took to protect them. Maverick was a big guy, and scary when he was in fight mode. He was 6'5 and 275 pounds of solid muscle. The women in the pack loved him and called him chocolate thunder. Having him as Gamma was a no-brainer in my mind.

As soon as Brent and I got him up to speed, our first order of business as the new leaders of this pack would be to find a way to bring down Marvin Archimedes and find a way to find Jennifer of Black Moon and return her safely to Xavier. I was going to have to work closely with Alpha Wyatt of Blue Lake, especially now that I was in charge of keeping his Luna and his son safe. Though something told me that the Luna didn't really need any protection. {Unknown P.O.V.}

"Please, please don't hurt me," the human beneath me begged for her life.

"Hurt you, I'm not going to hurt you," I responded. I saw the glimmer of hope in her eyes. Just like they all did when I said that. It made taking that hope away even better when I said, "I'm going to kill you." I laughed as I released my tail of knives. "Oh my god, what are you!?" she shouted as she struggled to break away from my grip. She was no match for me.

"Me? Oh, I'm just an average nine-tailed fox," I responded as I wagged my tail in all directions trying to decide which blade to kill this human with.

"Please, no, please, I'm pregnant."

"Oh, two for the price of one. Very nice." Her eyes widened in fear as I made my selection and cut her multiple times while avoiding any major arteries. The last thing I wanted for her was to die too quickly. That would be no fun. I took my time with her, as I did all of my victims. She was victim number 12, and her unborn, lucky number 13.

When I was done with her, I left her sprawled out on the floor of her apartment as I did all of my prior victims. I put my tail away, cleaned up, and went up to the rooftop of the building, and leaped across to the other side. When I landed, I was met with a group of unknown men.

"You've been busy, Mr. Fox."

"Who are you?" I asked the unknown man.

"My name is not important but you, my dear specimen, are very important."

"Specimen?! What the f**k?"

"Boys make sure you don't damage that tail of his. That is where this one is going to make us a lot of money."

"Yes, sir!!" the crowd of men shouted. I turned to leap back to the other building but was met with another group. Who were these men? Some were supernatural, some weren't. Some were human. How did they know I was a fox? How did they know about my tail? I looked for an escape, but there was none. I looked back at the unknown man who spoke to me.

"WHO ARE YOU!?" I shouted.

"Me? Just someone hired to snag you so we can make millions," he replied and laughed maniacally. I took out my tail and started to s***h at the men. At this rate, I didn't care if I was caught by human authorities. I was not going to become some stuffed fox for this guy to hang up in his living room.

"GET HIM!" the man shouted at his goons. I slashed one, but he recovered, and then I felt a whip around my leg. I was brought down and face-planted the floor. Just then, they all piled on top of me, and I felt my tail being tied against my body so I couldn't control it. I felt a jab in my neck, and my vision started to blur. "What is this thing?" I heard someone ask as my consciousness went back and forth.

"This, Diego, is what the boss calls a nine-tailed werefox. He says that it's a rare breed and that he's been after him for months. He said he got a tip on his whereabouts from a friend at Interpol in Luxembourg. Apparently, he was also being hunted by bounty hunters for human authorities. We needed to get to him before they did." My eyes started to close as I felt my head spinning. "Bag him and tag him, boys. We need to get him stateside ASAP."

"Yes, Bane!"

"Nighty night Mr. Fox," was the last thing I heard before everything went dark.

{Third person P.O.V.}

They watched from afar as the werefox they had been after for the last two weeks was captured so easily. Whoever this group was, they were stunned at how efficient they were taking down a powerful adversary such as the nine-tailed fox. "Holy s**t did you guys see that!?" Jedediah, a team member exclaimed after he saw what just happened.

"Amos, what are we going to do?"

"I don't know, Amy, but we need to report this back to the boss," Amos replied.

"Amos, I think those men are traffickers. The one who was in charge just now said that the fox would be worth millions," Albert, one of Amos' team members, said. "Albert," Amos said to him.

"Sir?"

"I want you to take team one and follow these guys. Figure out where their base of operations is. If they're trafficking the supernatural, we need to stop them."

"Wait, why do we care what happens to this guy?" Jedediah asked in utter confusion. "We've been tracking this guy for two weeks. Even the bounty hunters Dorian sent couldn't catch this guy. If this is about the bounty ..."

"Jed, this has nothing to do with the bounty. The boss could care less about the money. He has a f*****g endless supply of money," Amy said as she smacked Jedediah upside the head.

"Jed, these men are trafficking the supernatural. That's something that we don't stand for, regardless of who their victims are. Trafficking the supernatural is a very high-risk business, and it can lead to the exposure of our kind to humans. If humans are the buyers, that makes it even worse."

"This guy is a f*****g monster. Look what he's done to countless innocent humans. Who cares what happens to him? Let him become someone else's b***h. That's karma for the s**t that he's done." "Karma isn't justice, Jed," Albert said to him.

"We need to have him turned into the authorities for the supernatural. It is against the law of our kind to hurt humans for the game. For any supernatural other than vampires. They kill for food. This guy was killing for sport, and that is prohibited," Amy told him. "Being a tracker isn't just about finding the target, Jed. It's about making sure the proper measures are taken regardless of who or what they are," Amos concluded. Jedediah sighed and nodded his head in understanding. "Albert, go," Amos commanded and Albert took several of their teammates and left to follow the group of men who captured the fox. "The rest of us, let's go home and update the Alpha on the way. Something tells me this is bigger than any one of us can comprehend."
