It was Monday morning already. I felt like the sun rose too early, I could have stayed in bed for a few more hours. But after an extra-long weekend, I needed to get ready for work. I kissed Sam and hugged him tight, breathed his scent of a man that I love so much.
I went to get dressed. It was supposed to be a beautiful sunny day today, so I decided to put on my lovely white summer dress with red flowers on it. I loved this dress so much! It was mostly white on top, with no sleeves. Then on the way down, it became flowy with flowers. I thought it was quite elegant and fun at the same time. I got my hair up in a bun and looked around to see Sam staring at me.
“Wow! You are too pretty to go to work,” he said in a husky voice as he got close to me.
I blushed at his comment and laughed. “Thanks, but you know we need to go, right?”
He nodded even though I knew he wished we could take more days off instead of going to work
I took my phone out and tried to call Sarah but got no answer. Then I tried to concentrate and to her through her mind, but it didn’t work. That wasn’t normal, that wasn’t good. Our bond was strong, it was easy to talk to her through my mind. If that wasn’t working, then there was a problem. “Zach, we need to go, something’s wrong with Sarah. We need to find her, now.” Zach stood up and said, “Don’t worry man, we’ll find your mate. I have a hunch I know just where to search for her.” I looked at him. I knew exactly what he had in mind, the ruins of the ancient pack. Keven was seen with other wolves searching for the sepulcher of Eurynomos. Of course, that’s where he would have taken her. I didn’t know why he would bring her there, but whatever the reason, I only knew it wasn’t a good thing. My wolf wanted to come out so bad. But I knew we needed to go by car, it would be way faster than to run as a wolf. I kept him under
It took us a little longer than expected to find the entrance. There were a few guards, but we dealt with them. A good portion of the pack was there. We were a good team of wolves and humans, all together to find Sarah. There was this long corridor and at the end seemed to be a big room. I could hear sounds coming from it. That’s when she spoke to me, that’s when I heard her saying she was going to die. I couldn’t hold my wolf anymore. I turned into my wolf form and ran as fast as I could. Zach knew what it meant. He led the pack towards the room, behind me. As I arrived in the room, I saw Sarah on an altar at the center, Keven was about to stab her with a dagger in the chest. I let Zach and the pack deal with the wolves that were all around the room. I jumped between Keven and Sarah with a threatening growl. There was no way I was letting him harm my mate. “It’s okay babe, I’m here.” I told Sarah through her mind. She opened he
I heard Sarah say, “You’re wrong. Humans are not weak. We have our place in the pack with the others. What we lack in physical strength, we compensate in our hearts.” I didn’t want her to speak and get attention on her. But it was too late. Georges was coming her way. He spoke with hatred in the eyes, “You fool…” nothing more was said, and I knew he was coming for her. I stepped in his way just in time to stop him. His punch was so strong I fell to the floor. My leg was hurting from the fight with Keven. “You annoying bastard.” Georges told me and then changed into his wolf form as I followed him and changed too. With the demon’s power absorbed, he was much bigger and stronger than me, even if he didn’t have Alpha blood. That fight was going to be challenging. ************ Sarah’s POV ************ A silent filled the room as Georges and Sam turned to their wolf form, preparing to battle. Everybody stopped fighting
************ Sarah’s POV ************A lot had happened since that day. After the battle we went back to Sam’s parents’ house. We were injured but we were fine. They sent some members of the pack to clean up the mess and then seal the sepulcher, hoping no one would have the idea to go there again.With the respect gained from the fight, and the courage and strength that he showed, it was decided Sam would become the Alpha. His father stepped down as the Alpha and began teaching his son, showing him what it means to be a good Alpha. I had no doubts he would do great. As for myself, Sam’s mom has been teaching me what it means to be a Luna.At work, we had to think of a reason for Marissa and Keven not to show up at work anymore. We’ve told the other employees that they had decided to go live abroad and couldn’t work for us anymore. Of course, employees that were members of the pack knew the truth, b
All boxes are unpacked. Finally, I’ll be able to settle down. Not too soon either as I start my new job tomorrow. I’m so excited! I’ll be working for a big video game company in downtown Montréal, joining the marketing team. This is a dream come true! I’ve always enjoyed video games ever since I was a kid. Mom and dad where a little sad to see me go away but I’m only a half an hour drive from their homes so it’s not like I’m never going to see them again. Looking around, I can’t help but feel proud to finally live on my own. At twenty-five, some of my friends already moved on their own. But I wasn’t in a hurry to move, life was good living with my parents. And as their only daughter, they didn’t put any pressure on me to go away, we were getting along just fine. Walking around my apartment, everything was just as I wanted it. A big open space which serves as a dinner and living room, a modern kitchen and finally, my bedroom. I pu
When it finally did finish, I was eager to go home. I picked up my notes and got up, but a hand fell on my shoulder as I was about to start walking. I felt tingles coming from that touch. When I turned around, I saw Sam with the biggest smile on his face. “Hey! Sarah, it is, right?” He asked with a deep voice. “Yes, it is, and you’re Sam?” I asked him in reply, as if I didn’t remember his name. I mean the guy is gorgeous! I had a hard time concentrating the whole meeting, my eyes just kept coming back to him all the time. I was trying not to drool on the desk. He laughed a little before answering, “Yeah that’s right. So… I couldn’t help noticing you looking at me earlier.” Oh crap! I thought to myself. And here I managed to make myself look like a fool on my first day. So much for a first impression. I tried to make it as if it wasn’t true, even though it must have been so obvious.
What a day! Finding my mate was never something that worried me. A lot of my family found their mates early on. Some of my friends were teasing me as I was getting older. I knew that one day it would come. But I didn’t expect to find her today! I still remember waiting in that meeting for everyone to come. When I smelled her, I just knew. One word repeated in my brain: mate. My wolf knew it was her, he wanted out. When she came in the room, she looked at me. Her brown hair coming at her shoulders. She had the most beautiful hazel eyes. From the look she gave me, I knew that she felt it too. She was human, I couldn’t smell any wolf in her. I would have to take it slow with her; I don’t know how she’ll react when she finds out what I am. But today was great! I didn’t expect her to accept going to the restaurant with me but I’m so glad she did! And that feeling when our lips touched, I don’t even know how to d
The day was going fine but the development of the new game was going slower than anticipated. I had to sit in with many developers trying to explain why we were behind schedule. Keven was the lead developer on that game. He was also Marissa’s mate. Keven was always a little distant, a little different from other wolves in our pack. But overall, Keven was a good guy, working hard on the software development team. “Listen, we just have a little more bugs than anticipated,” he told me. “The new dev, he’s having problems but he’s learning. Just give us a little more time and we’ll get the game ready.” He assured me. “Fine Keven, I trust you.” He gave me a smile and said, “Thanks, you won’t regret it.” And then he left my office. The day was coming to an end, when suddenly, I felt fear in my heart! Something was wrong with Sarah, our bond as mates was strong enough that I could feel it. I ran to he
