Isabella's P.O.V.

*Two weeks later*

The Alphas or Betas of each pack besides the Thunder Mane pack have come together to prepare for the final battle. We are currently going over all the battles which have been fought over the last two weeks:

"Arthur had attacked the Desert Howler pack (Daniel and Miya's pack) the day after the declaration of war from the council gathering. That was the weakest 'bloodthirsty' pack and close to the Thunder Mane Pack (Arthur's) in strength. They won of course because Arthur didn't consider the fact that the neighboring pack, the Forest Growlers, would aid the Desert Howler. The casualties were low and most of the rogues were killed. There was only one person from the Thunder Mane pack at the battlefield to supervise. 

Three days later, he launched an attack on the Native Bones pack (Emilia's). I believe that Arthur thought that since this pack was weaker than everyone but the Forest Growlers no one would help and it would be easy. The neighboring Bold Fang pack (Jason and Emilia's) got there in time to save the majority. The casualties are higher this time, around ten. There was no capture of members of the Thunder Mane pack

Four days after that, Arthur went for the Crescent pack (Emma's old one) and the Shadow Tooth pack (Christopher and Emma's) simultaneously. He had learned from his mistakes. Carson and I were nearby and able to intervene before the Thunder Mane pack and assembled rogues' victory. It was a stalemate. Christopher was injured and his beta was dead. The Alpha of the Crescent pack was killed. If Carson and I had not intervened, both packs would have been decimated. At this point, we all know that Arthur had assembled a huge force of rogues to be able to attack so many packs so quickly.

And just a day ago, the Iron Walker pack (Sam's old one) and the Somber Paw Furs pack (Sam and Aiden's). This was an attack meant to kill everyone involved. The Alphas had been home in preparation to leave for this meeting. In this case, the Beta of the Iron Walker pack was killed and the Third in Command of the Somber Paw Furs pack was also killed. This weakens both packs tremendously. Luckily, some warriors of the Gray Mane pack and the Black Mane pack were out training and were able to help. 

We were able to capture several high ranking wolves of the Thunder Mane pack who have given information that lead us to believe that Arthur is going to attack our meeting which he believes happens in a week instead of today. They said that Arthur intends to use all his force to kill all the Alphas, leaving the packs leaderless. We will let them attack us before flanking them with what is hopefully superior numbers. Any questions?" I said all of this to the gathered Alphas who have finally accepted me as a main leader in this war. Elina got up from her seat and asked,

"How is the fight going to happen, in wolf or human form?" Oh, shit! I had not thought of that. None of us had told the others that we were white wolves. Everyone is looking at me, waiting for an answer. 

"I will leave that up to the discretion of each Alpha," I answer noncommittally. Elina nods and sits back down. No one else steps forward. Carson stands up and declares,

"If no one had any questions, this meeting is now over. Though I would like to speak more with Alpha Alex, Aiden, Christopher, Jason and Daniel with their Lunas." Those called nod heads in consent and wait until everyone else has left the room. Elina starts the conversation,

"Are we going to tell the others about being white wolves?" Sam and Miya replied with no hesitation,

"No." At the same moment when Emma and Emilia said,

"Yes." I take a deep breath,

"It seems we are at an impasse. What do our mates think?" Carson answers,

"Whatever you want, babe." Alex (Elina's mate) laughs and adds,

"If you really think that we are going to give you our opinion, then you are crazy." Aiden (Sam's mate) comments,

"We are not going to tell you what to do. No, that never ends well." I smirk at their answer,

"I think we should inform the Alphas and Lunas of each pack, so if goddess forbid we have to shift, they won't kill us because of their oath." Christopher (Emma's mate) agrees,

"I agree with you because when you shifted in front of us at the rogue attack on the safe house, I nearly killed you." Everyone nods. I mind-link all the Alphas because being the Luna of the strongest pack comes with the benefit of mind linking all wolves,

"All the Alphas and their Lunas please come back to the meeting hall. We have just received some new sensitive information." I do not let anyone ask any questions because it would be simpler to get them all in here first where they won't go off and try to kill me. We have to wait about five minutes before all the Alphas and Lunas come back. They are already annoyed that the 'bloodthirsty' Alphas had a secret meeting, but getting called in after, well it pissed them off more. I think if my dearest mate was not quite so scary we would have had some problems. I clear my throat and announce,

"Thank you for coming back into meeting after such short notice! As you know, my fellow Lunas and I have encountered white wolves in the past. I know of your oath to kill all white wolves on sight, but could we consider letting them help?" This causes everyone to rise out of their seats. The Alpha of the Crescent pack (Emma's old pack) exclaims,

"Those bloody creatures are only here to overpower us. I will not bow down to any higher power." Emma attempts to calm him,

"What Luna Isabella said had nothing to do with 'bowing down to a higher power'. She is suggesting we use our forces smartly. We know that Alpha Arthur knows no bounds working with dark wizards and the sort. From our encounters with white wolves, they have powers which could be useful." This only half way calms him. Instead, the Alpha of the Gray Mane pack (Elina's old one) declares,

"How would we know that these powers would not be used against us?" Elina decides to answer,

"Because that is not who they are. These white wolves swore an oath with my fellow Lunas, promising to protect us. Taking control of you hurts us, so they would not." The Alpha of the Iron Walkers pack (Sam's) adds,

"You know them, but can we trust you?" Sam scoffs at him,

"If you do not believe you can trust us, then leave. I will not fight a war with a bunch of backstabbing idiots. If you are gone, then we will still call upon them if necessary." It think her words shocked some people. After an awkward silence, the Alpha of the Native Bones pack comments,

"I for one believe that having the white wolves on speed dial is not a bad idea." Some of the Alphas glare and growl at him. "It is still true. We have nothing to lose and everything to win with them." He turns to me. "Can you set up a meeting between us and the leader of the white wolves?" I smile at him,

"Of course. If you had forgotten from my previous adventures. The Lunas and I belong to the White Wolves pack also, giving us a mind-link to them. You would have to speak through me though." The Alpha of the Forest Growlers says,

"I think we should talk to the leader of the white wolves." After some arguing, everyone agrees. From my point of vue, it is quite funny. They have been talking to the white wolves this entire time! When they all turn to me, I let my wolf, Belle, take over to change my voice some and let them actually speak to the white wolf. I am now just a spectator. Belle says,

"What do you need Alphas? I am only here at Isabella's request. Speak quickly!" The Alpha of the Gray Mane pack (Elina's) starts,

"Can we trust you?" My wolf laughs,

"The true question is if I reveal myself can I trust you." 

"That is not what I asked."

"As long as no harm comes from you towards the Lunas of the packs you will suffer no harm from my hand." The Alpha of the Iron Walkers pack goes next,

"What aid can you give us?" Again, Belle chuckles,

"Do you remember when Isabella killed all the rogues on the attack on the castle?" He nods. "She was borrowing a small piece of my strength through the pack bond." 

"So you are saying that you are more powerful than that?"

"Yes, I can be when angered. To calm your worries, I will not show myself or aid unless completely necessary. I have been anonymous for once and I would like to keep it that way." The Alphas continue questioning my wolf for a while until they declare that they will not kill any white wolves if they show themselves. After that, everyone heads to the war room. 

I mean we do have a war to finish planning.
