Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 509

Instantly, their noses lifted and their eyes met mine. As soon as some started growling, the one asleep woke up and joined in. By the looks at the others being trampled, they must be dead. Not surviving the transformation.

The chain-link held up against their protest. I wished their was a cure but I doubt anything would change what they did to these humans. Their DNA was completely altered. It would take years to achieve that, if it was even possible.

After a few moments, Alec and everyone else started piling in. My attention was brought back to my surroundings as I kept looking around. The lights were out, making it really dark and only getting darker. Thankfully, wolves had excellent night vision or this would really be difficult.

“Alpha.” I heard someone whisper. I had started walking down a hallway when they tried to get my attention from behind.

Not verbally answering but I turned and looked to see who it was. All eyes were on a single man as he looked into the glass of double doors. My curiosity got the best of me and I turned back to see what he was looking at.

He stepped aside so I could get a good look. Cleaning the dust off the window, I got a good look. It was one of the main rooms. Tables were lined up with looked like hospital beds in the middle. The whole scene reminded me of when humans would give blood for the Red cross but this was much for unorganized. It wasn’t until I saw another cage that I got concerned.

“Be ready.” I muttered and pushed the door open.

I was expecting more growling but I was met with cries of scared women and men yelling, ‘stay back’. I was still trying to comprehend what I was seeing when the overhead lights flickered on. It took a few times and some didn’t work but it allowed us to see the entire room.

“They are still human.” Alec whispered in shock.

“Why are women where?” Carson asked. “I thought the wolves were all men?”

As much as I wanted to let them out, I wanted to know what they knew. Quietly, I walked up to the men since they didn’t seem as scared. “Have you been injured?” I asked, looking at their naked bodies for injuries.

“No! Stay back!” One of them held up his fist like he was going to fight us. By the look of them, they haven’t had a decent meal in days.

“I’m not here to hurt you.” I wasn’t sure how to help them though either. “Can you tell me what happened here?”

All the humans were looking at me like I was crazy. I couldn’t exactly bring them back to my pack. They weren’t fully aware of what all this even meant. Seeing as they were all living on the streets, I felt like this was the best way for them to cooperate.

“You think you can make this go away like that? You think you can buy us off?” A guy from the back asked angerly.

“You don’t have an option. I am giving you back your life and giving you a chance to have a better one than the one they stripped from you. The only choice you have is if you want to take the money and what hotel you want. This place will be cleaned and destroyed before tomorrow is even up. I’m not your enemy but I’m also not someone that you should cross. I do value your life so I urge you to make your next move as easy as possible.”

“This isn’t fair.” He said in a more sadden tone. “I want justice.”

“The men that did this to you…” I looked at him in the eyes. “… they are all dead. We killed every single one of them. There isn’t anyone for the police to arrest. Justice was served and don’t think for one moment you were the only ones that were wronged in this. Everyone in this room suffered a loss. Don’t confuse my generosity with guilt.”
