I breathe a sigh of relief at seeing Alpha Marcus lying motionless on the ground. However, it is short-lived as I turn and scan the battlefield. My heart aches seeing all the injured and dead werewolves. This didn’t need to get to this point.
A faint smile suddenly spreads across my face as my eyes stop at Sammy and Katelyn. Sammy is getting up off the ground and is completely healed. As she stands, she changes from her light tan wolf to Alpha Marcus’ gray wolf.
Well, at least she is feeling well enough to use her abilities. That is a good sign.
My mate is amazing.
My smile slowly fades as my eyes spot Mike, who is staring at Katelyn and Sammy. What is Mike doing? He knows he can never have Katelyn again. Right.
My thoughts are interrupted when the Supreme Elder calmly walks out of the trees, along with a few of the other elders, and scans around the open fiel
Katelyn POV I walk across my bedroom to the crib. Even though the baby is crying, and you can’t hear anything except him, I smile as I stop at the edge. Our first born and the next alpha to the Sun Moon pack. My pride and joy. I lean over the edge of the crib and softly coo, “Are you mad, Max? You can’t be hungry. You just had your milk.” I gently pick him up from the crib and begin to sway back and forth, while cradling my son in my arms. “Hush, baby. You need to rest. You have to grow up to be big and strong.” However, Max continues to cry. Knock. Knock. Still swaying back and forth, I glance up at the door. “Come in.” The door opens and Fiona pokes her head into the bedroom. “Uhm, you can’t get him to calm down again?” I slowly shake my head. She steps into the bedroom. “Do you want me to help?
How long have I been running? I don’t remember. However, I can’t stop now. I have to keep going. I have to get as far away from there as possible. My paws pound on the forest floor as I dash around a tree and over a fallen log. With each step, my legs cramp a little more, but I can’t pay attention to it now. I have to get away. With sheer determination in my eyes, I focus my attention on the terrain ahead. My escape almost came to a crashing halt a few minutes ago when I took my eyes off the path ahead and I almost slammed into a tree trunk. Good thing my wolf has good reflexes. I still can’t believe that I could be this stupid. What was I thinking? Oh, yeah. I hoped when my mate turned 18 and could finally sense my presence that he would love me and claim me. What a joke? I’ve known since my 18th birthday, which has been two years now, that th
Fear slowly consumes me, as my mind won’t stop asking question after question. Will they like me? Are they a peaceful pack? Will they really let me stay? Then my mind slowly turns to darker questions. Will they make me work like a slave? Shoot. Will they try to sexually assault me? NO!! I’M STILL A VIRGIN! They can’t do that. Shoot. I still haven’t had my first kiss. I have been waiting for my mate, but that won’t ever happen now. He has already claimed and mated with the alpha’s daughter from another pack. Oh, I have to stop thinking about this. I’m sure that everything that I’m thinking about surely won’t happen. I need to have faith in the Moon Goddess. Gus stops the car in front of an enormous house. No. This isn’t a house. It is a freaking mansion. A very huge mansion. What kind of pack is this? I lean forward in my seat
What have I gotten myself into? I follow Wyatt to his area of the mansion. I don’t even know where my bag is. Shortly after I sat down for the meal, one of the pack members took my bag. She said that she would put it in my room, but I don’t know where that is. Now, I’m following Wyatt through the various halls, which feel more like a maze than a house. Wyatt did tell me, as soon as we met, omegas need to be protected, but what does that really mean? Wait. Does that mean I have to sleep in the same room as Wyatt? I have never shared a bed with anyone. I have been planning on doing that only with my mate. Dang. Why did I have to think about him? With my head lowered, I bite my bottom lip as I try to keep my tears from forming yet again. Over the past few days, I think I have cried enough for that idiot. I know my wolf is yearning for him, but he is no longer my mate.
Where is Katelyn? I have tried repeatedly to get someone to try and search for my best friend, but everyone seems to just ignore me. Well, not everyone is ignoring me. Katelyn’s father, Beta Malcolm, has sent search groups out, but they keep coming up empty. How could she just disappear like that? I know she has to be miserable and in pain right now. I could see it in her face as Alpha Marcus announced that his son, Mike, had finally found his mate. I wanted to stand up and scream that the girl wasn’t Mike’s mate, but I can’t. It isn’t acceptable for someone like me to stand up against Alpha Marcus. Now Katelyn could do it, but I know she won’t. She has kept the identity of her mate a secret from everyone except me for the last two years. She only had a couple more months before Mike turns 18 and he would then be able to find his mate on his own. However, that all has come crashing down in an ins
I can’t believe I’m actually learning to fight. I made a simple comment to Wyatt that I wish I could be more like him and bam. Ford and Mason are teaching me to fight. I think I could have handled just one teacher, but with both of them, it is like an intense lesson. When one has to leave to take care of something, the other one comes in and continues with my training. Usually, Mason is my primary teacher since he is the lead warrior and is the one leading all the training sessions while Ford is Wyatt’s Beta. Between the two, they have taught me in an extremely intense training session every day. I don’t even get Saturday or Sunday off. However, if this is going to get me to the level that Wyatt is at, then I’ll gladly work all these hours and more. Well, I have little else to do, so I might as well train. If I was back at my old pack, I would be getting ready to go back to college. However,
Oh, Brenda, she is too cute when she is thinking really hard. I should say Katelyn instead. I know she gave us a fake name when she first got here. We have given her so many hints to try and slowly let her know that we have special abilities. As the alpha of the pack, even though my gender is beta, I can see people’s abilities. My father, who was the former alpha, has the ability too. We have passed it from each generation to the next one. Other members of the pack have special abilities too. However, everyone in our pack has the ability to see into other people’s minds and see their thoughts. We still don’t understand how we have formed this ability, but it is also one reason that we have secretly hidden ourselves for many generations. According to our elders, other packs learned of our abilities and began to try to use them for their benefit. However, it didn’t take long for us to run in orde
I still can’t understand what has happened. How can someone who has never met me before know who I am?As I sit on the bus, I can’t seem to take my eyes off the bus driver. My mind keeps trying to figure it out. However, the only thing that I can think of is that Katelyn somehow knew I may come to her, and she showed them a picture of me. Nothing else explains what is happening.I finally tear my eyes away from Gus and look out the window. My mind is still trying to grasp the events for today, but what I keep jumping to is the fact that I will see my best friend in a few hours. Just the thought of finally getting to see her has me smiling. I also can’t stop trying to think of all the things I want to tell her.There is one thing that I’m positive that I won’t say to her. No matter what, I’m not going to tell her anything about Mike and that witch. Oops, I mean B
