Moon Goddess Star

Liam

Star's POV

I can't believe my mom followed me here. How did she even know where I was? She just ruined everything! I keep my eyes on Nova as I try to fight off every wolf that is attacking me. "Star! Mom needs help!" I turn to my left and see a wolf lunging its claws at my moms throat. She doesn't see it coming as she is struggling to fight off the three other wolves biting her body.

"MOM!" I shout and the next thing I feel is the air swirling around like a tornado. The pressure is so strong that it knocks the wolves away from my mom and on to the ground. However, it didn't affect me or my mom. Weird.

I run to the water and am stopped by more wolves quickly recovering from their harsh knock to the ground. "You really are pissing me off now." Alpha John states with a cold tone. "I'll make you a deal. Stop your bullshit right this second, or your gorgeous mother here gets her throat slit. The princess is dead because of you. Do you want your mother's death on your hands as well?" He smirks at me and I feel anger boiling within me like I've never felt before.

"Star. Your father and the pack are on their way. DO NOT go with this monster. It's okay. My death will not be your fault. Please remember that." My eyes widen at the words my mother just said to me through our link. I shake my head vigorously.

"Star. Listen to me. Concentrate on the anger you're feeling and imagine the disgusting alpha and his men on fire. Aim your finger at them one by one. Trust me." I love my wolf and trust her more than I trust myself. Listening to her words of wisdom, I do as instructed. Holy f*****g s**t! I watch with delight as Alpha John is on fire and demanding his men to kill me and my mother. I aim at the men holding my mom and they drop instantly to the ground on fire. I smirk as I continue setting these men to their death one by one.

I hold back my laughter at the expression on my mother's face. If only she knew I was just as shocked as she is. After we are safe, I run to the water and grab Nova's body out. Please be alive, please be alive.

"Nova!" I continue screaming out her name, hoping she opens her little eyes. Hoping to even hear a heartbeat, but to no avail.

"Is-is she.." My mom whimpers as she kneels on the ground beside me as I cradle the lifeless body in my arms.

"I can help her." I'm not one to be startled, but I didn't even hear this man approach us. Where the hell did he come from? I tense up, but my wolf tells me that she scents no harm from him. At her words, I relax slightly.

"Who are you and how can you help? She's already gone."

"My name is Liam and that little girl is my mate." I stare at him in disbelief. "I'm sorry, but you're like, what? 30? How could you be the mate of a little girl who literally just turned 2 the other day?" I sniff the air and realize he's not even a werewolf. "You're a vampire." He nods his head in affirmation. "How did you know we were here?" I continue my questions as my mom is shaking like a leaf. I can feel the fear radiating off of her.

"Can we continue this interrogation after I save my mate?" He asked kindly, but I could sense that he was getting annoyed. At this point, I would do anything to save Nova. "Fine, but I'll be holding on to her the entire time." There's no way in hell I'm just going to hand Nova over to a stranger. Especially a vampire. Not that I have anything against their kind, but they have super-sonic speed and I won't risk him running off with her.

"Thank you. Hold her tight." I stare at him with disbelief. The little girl is dead, so it's not like she will be trying to run away or break free of my grasp. i***t.

He kneels beside me and brushes the wet hair away from her face. I'm trying my best not to cry every time I look down at her lifeless face. Aunt Alice and Uncle Landon are going to be devastated when they find out what happened. "You have a good hold on her?" He asks me, and I nod my head.

My mom turns around the second he bites his wrist. She absolutely hates blood, so I understand why she refuses to watch. The last thing I need is for her to pass out.

Liam takes his wrist and gently puts it to Nova's lips. Using his other hand, he opens her mouth slightly to allow his blood to drip into her mouth. My attention is pulled away when I hear an army of pounding paws running this direction. Oh, s**t. This is not what I want my aunt and uncle to see.
