"We have to leave" I heard my wolf say. 

I did not argue. I felt as if someone was watching me. I quickly raced out of the water and looked for my shoes. I slipped them on and then began to safely strap Alessandro to me. He was fussing so I began to coo at him. He calmed down and I quickly left the waterfall. I am really going to miss this place, but I have no time to think about this. 

I ran deeper into the woods trying to use the trees as shields. I heard the stomping of feet behind me making my already rapid beating turn into over drive.

Have they found me? I God please don't let them find us? I prayed in my head. I picked up my pace as the sounds began to get louder. Growls can be heard from about half a mile away. Tears were stinging my eyes as I tightened my hold on Alessandro who began to cry at this moment. 

"Please. Please" I cried silently as I ran. The stomps and growls got closer and closer when out of nowhere a huge wolf jumped out behind me tackling me to the ground. Before I hit the floor I quickly moved to my back do I do not land on my baby. 

The wind was knocked out of me as my attackers kept growling and circling me like predators. My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest. My wolf was stirring inside me wanting to protect her pup.

"Who are you and why are you on our land?!" A voice yelled at me. I turned my head to a mas standing infront of me. He was very tall and muscular. He looked as if he could rip a tree from its roots and use the tree as a baseball bat. "I asked you a question rogue" He growled.

I swallowed the lump in my throat.

"I-I mean n-no h-harm sir" I stuttered. I clutched Alessandro closer to me as I hid him from the people in front of me.

The giant man looked down at my arms and narrowed his eyes.

"What are you hold?" He asked in a hard voice. I began to shake. He can't take my baby.

"Nothing." I said. His eyes grew darker as he stocked towards me making me shrink back as his followers growled.

"Who are you and why have you entered the Crystal Water territory?" He demanded. I shivered in fear as he looked at me.

"I-I didn't know I was t-trespassing" I stuttered. 

"Of course you didn't" He said sarcastically while still holding hardness. My heart was hammering in my chest. "What are you holding?"

"Nothing" I said again as I held my baby closer. 

I guess what I said made him snap because the next thing I knew he wrapped his large hands around my neck as he roughly grabbed Alessandro from my arms. 

"NO!!!!" I yelled as a wail came from my baby. The quilt unwrapped as the man grabbed him and fell to the floor. My baby was dangling in the blankets screaming. Shock entered the mans face. I felt my wolf trying take over me as she watched her pup get man handled. I grabbed the mans hand and twisted it making him cry out and drop Alessandro. I quickly raced towards him and caught him before he hit the floor. Cradling him to me I looked up at the men and growled so loud I felt the trees shake.

"Don't. Touch. My. Baby" I said through gritted teeth.

Shock was still evident on all of the wolves faces. My stance was in a defensive position in case they attacked again. The man who grabbed my baby was opening and closing his mouth making him look like a fish.

"I am so sorry. I-I thought it was something stolen" He said looking horrified at what he had done. I relaxed my body but still kept my guard. I nodded my head at him. "But I still need answers. Who are you and what are you doing on our territory?"

I sighed and looked at Alessandro. His face was drenched with his tears as he looked up at me, he snuggled in my chest. I felt my wolf growl in my head. I hushed her reminding her that our baby is okay and in our arms. I looked back up to the man.

"My name is Sasha and this is my son Alessandro. We mean harm to anyone. I didn't know this land was taken." I said formally.

The man looked at me and then at my baby. He nodded his head. My name is Jeremiah Abrahms, Alpha of the Crystal Waters pack."

My eyes nearly bulged out of my head when I heard that.

"Alpha?" I squeaked causing the Alpha to smile.

"Yes." 

"A-are you going to kill us?" I asked quietly. The alpha looked at me.

"No, but I do have a lot of questions and you are going to answer them." I nodded my head to him keeping my gaze down so not to look him in the eyes.

"My men are no threat to you now child, but if you attack you will leave us no choice but to kill you and your son" He said in a business voice. I gulped and held my son closer to me and nodded my head.

"Okay then. Follow me, we will talk in my office at the pack house."

My heart once again went into overdrive. Is this pack just like the New Moons? I prayed to God that they werent and that they would let me go. A tear escaped my eye but I quickly wiped it away as the alpha escorted me to the pack house. I kept my head down  and cradled my son to me. 

Please God, please help me.
