Song : Mercy by Shawn Mendes ( MY BAE )
Anyways, enjoy!

Stacey O'ellen's POV ( before Radiance got taken away )
How dare that bitch slap me! I could feel my own anger seeping through my veins, and some of the pack members growled when they saw me. Bunch of f*cktards. Why can't they just see that she isn't fit for Luna? I rolled my eyes and hurried to the forest, finding the Hunters.
After a good 15 minutes run in human form, I found them.
"Feel free to attack now."
Bentley Cole's POV ( after Radiance got taken away )
'Mate! I can't feel mate!' Alex was getting frustrated. I groaned, then I realized what he meant.
'What do you mean you can't feel her?!'
'It's like she's knocked out or something, I can't connect with her.' I scowled.
"Alpha!" One of the pack members ran towards me. He stopped to catch his breath for a while.
Once the next-in-line Alpha finds his mate and he acknowledges it, he's usually recognized as the new Alpha.
Remember that time when Dad had a meeting? Yeah, this was one of it; announcing that I'm the new Alpha. He'd stepped down, for me.
What's lacking now was the ceremony.
"It was definitely hunters.. They were here. And, uh,"
"And what?" I growled. No. Please, not what I'm thinking.
"They got our Luna."
Radiance Collins' POV
I groaned, rubbing my head in the process. I took time to take in where I was in. Apparently I was caged, as if I was some sort of animal. And I could smell blood. Is it mine?
"I see that you are awake." A man, probably in his late forties appeared. I took in his appearances; he had jet black hair with some grey hair growing with it, and black hard-cold eyes. There was this long scar that started from the right side of his forehead down to his nose level, slanted to the right.
If he doesn't look intimidating to you then there must be something wrong with your eyes. I noticed scars on his bottom lip, and his nose looks broken. I could feel some kind of power radiating off of him, but I wasn't affected.
He looks oddly familiar, but I couldn't remember who.
"And my head hurts like a bitch." I hissed. "What do you want?"
"You." I gritted my teeth.
"Bentley will find you and rip your throat out." I growled. What the hell is happening to me? I'm starting to act like a wolf.
"He will never find you."
"Let's see about that you pup." His eyes turned black, and he stalked towards me.
"You better control that mouth of yours." He hissed.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the Rouge King."
"How did you manage to break in?" There was definitely a snake in the pack.
"With the help of someone, of course."
"Wow, you totally, magically turned into a pink fluffy unicorn and got in! Let me ask again, who helped you?!" I hissed out.
"You better stop pushing your buttons. Enjoy your stay here, you'll be here for a long time. Don't even hope that Bentley will come and get you. He's probably f*cking Stacey." I whimpered, feeling waves of sadness hitting me like a truck.
If only puberty hit me as hard as that.
"You're lying."
He shrugged. "Suit yourself. You yourself know it best." I sighed. He's right. A part of me died, knowing that Bentley might not look for me, and I will never be able to find comfort in his arms.
But a part of me, believes that he will come.
For me, for us. I will be strong.
For our future.

Bentley Cole's POV
"Nothing, Alpha. There's no sign of her scent." I slammed my hand on the table, growling.
"Keep trying!" I growled out. The tracker widened his eyes in fear and nodded, afraid to speak. He left the room soon after and I flipped the desk, papers flying and documents dropping off the desk.
'Radiance, if you can hear me, reply me. Please.' I tried mind linking her for what seems like the hundredth time now. Stacey was nowhere to be seen. I've got three of my trackers to track her, and another five to track the hunters. As for Radiance, I had eight of them tracking her. Call me bias, but she's my mate and our Luna, and she comes before anything else.
'We'll find her.' I tried to re-assure my wolf.
'Well they f*cking better.' Alex whimpered. He thinks that it was his fault that Radiance got caught. Then it reminded me, the Moonlight Stone Pack! I wonder whether Radiance would be happy if I told their Luna that Radiance was her biological daughter.
I shook my head. Let's focus on getting Radiance back first.
I picked up the phone on my desk, punching their pack's number. I memorized all my allies pack numbers, so I didn't have to waste any time to find the number. Since we didn't ally a lot of packs, it was easy for me to memorize.
"Beta Kurt speaking."
"Alpha Bentley of the Black Cole pack. It's my mate. The hunters got her."
"We'll be there." With that, the line went dead.
I punched the Crescent Kylie Pack and their Alpha picked up.
"Alpha Bentley of Black Cole Pack. Hunters got my Luna." I didn't need to speak that much into details. He growled.
"We'll get there as soon as possible." And the line went off once again.
'Meeting in an hour.' I mind linked the people that were going to be involved in this. I got a few 'yes Alpha' and sighed. Don't worry Radiance. I'm coming for you.

Two SUV cars arrived at our lands. I mind linked those on patrol to let them in on my land. It wasn't necessary for allies to have to give permission to enter lands, but my father and I felt the need to. You never know if they enter and explore the pack lands and then plan a surprise attack on you.
A splitting image of Radiance stepped out. The difference between her and Radiance was the fact that she held no emotions in her eyes, while Radiance's were full of hope and love. Sure, her sister had put a spell so she would get over the loss of her mate, but I could tell that without the presence of her mate, she was already dead on the inside.
"Luna Elena," I greeted. She gave me a small nod and greeted me back.
"Alpha Caden, Luna Sarah." I greeted and they greeted me back.
"Follow me." And with that, I made sure that everyone was following me into the meeting room.
When I had made sure everyone had seats, I started.
"So as you all know, my Luna was taken away by hunters." Some of my warriors growled, not liking the fact that someone took their Luna.
"They are most definitely working with rouges. First off, we'll need a witch. Someone close to her. That will be Luna Sarah." The room was quiet, intensely immersed into the meeting. Good.
"Since she's half witch, and a powerful one at that, the tracking spell should be simple for her. Luna Sarah, please do the tracking spell.
She complied, finishing her tracking spell in less than ten minutes.
The blood moved, to an area which was isolated. I know that place.
"Now we'll talk about where we'll ambush. She is being locked up in a isolated house. And it's at least two hundred metres from the nearest bushes or trees." I said, starting to draw out what I know. "I want all of you to surround the house, hiding behind trees or bushes. We'll attack when we figure out where our Luna is. Any questions?" One of the warriors raised his hand.
"What if it's a trap?"
"We'll sniff the air to make sure that her scent is there, and strong before attacking. Anymore questions?" Another warrior raised his hand.
"How many warriors are we bringing?" I sure as heck do not know.
"We'll bring as many as possible. Most of you in this meeting room will be part of it. Does anyone want to back out?" No one dared to even move.
"Good. If there are no more questions, you are all dismissed. Assemble at the field in ten minutes."
Don't worry, Radiance. I'm coming.
Radiance Collins' POV
I woke up with a stinging sensation spreading through my cheeks.
"What do you want?" I hissed.
"Well, since you're here and I'm bored, might as well have some fun, right?" I gulped.
"What a-are yo-you going t-to do?" I let out a shaky breath. The rouge king chuckled.
"I'm going to torture you."
'Don't be scared, my friend. I'll protect you.'
'Who are you?'
'I'm Moon Goddess. Bentley will come soon and it will all be over. Don't worry.'
'Okay. What do I do now?'
'That, I can't tell you. You'll figure it out. I must go now.'
'Oh okay, I'm totally not about to be tortured by some psychopath, a little help would be nice.'
Geez, who lit the fuse to my tampon?
I didn't realize the Rouge King whose name was Mason, was dragging me into another room. My eyes grew wide with the amount of knifes that looked like it was coated with some substance. What was he going to do?
Don't show signs of fear, Radiance.
He pushed me down onto a chair and tied my hands with ropes. Being the stupid me, I kicked him where the sun doesn't shine as hard as I could. He crouched down in pain and I quickly untangled myself from the ropes. Come on Radiance!!
"YOU! GET BACK HERE!" Holy fluffy piggies. I cursed out aloud and ran straight for the door. I ran and turned to my right, there was no time for me to think about which direction to run to. I ran. Then I rolled my eyes, not believing my luck.
It was a dead end.
Damn you, sense of direction.
Mason pulled my hair and the memories of me being abused came rushing back in again. All the kicks, me getting backhanded, being knocked out cold, whipped and almost getting raped. It all hit me like a hundred punches.
Maybe you should change that hundred to infinity.
"NO! Please stop! Please!" I cried.
"You shall pay!" He dugged his nails into where Bentley marked him, and I felt like my body was on fire. I screamed and thrashed around. It hurts so fucking much, and it feels as if me and Bentley's bond was breaking a little. Not much, but little.
"Dad! What's going on?!" I looked at the direction where the voice came from. Look what the cat dragged in!
"Tyler." I whispered. He was the only friend I had, maybe even more, until he left town without bidding goodbye. Never in a million years would I expect to see him again.
And then, I passed out, mainly from shock.
