We ran for about six hours.
I was beyond exhausted. We had shifted to our wolf form only once but that was because we were trying to get out of another pack's territory before they found out.
We had ran like our lives depended on it. Well, it did.
"You said you made some arrangements. I'm tired, Felix!" I whined.
"I did. We just need to run a little bit more." He huffed. One look at him and you could tell that he was exhausted and so close to giving up.
He started to jog forward and I dragged my feet behind him. I saw a black shadow from the corner of my eye but thought it was nothing. I continued to walk until I was grabbed from my arm and pulled into someone's side.
"Felix!" I tried to scream out but it was muffled.
My wolf was on full alert and she tried to shift. But with the strong grip the person had on me, my wolf was struggling.
I mind linked Felix and that's when he turned around and saw. My eyes were wide open and tears formed in them.
Felix's eyes grew big and he took small steps closer.
"Helena, don't freak out. I'm right here!" He said through our mind link. My heart beat picked up and I stayed still in the persons' arms.
"Hey man, look. We were just simply passing by. We come in peace," Felix tried to explain.
I heard the person growl, and I shook in fear. I turned my head and saw the person had a hood on that covered his face.
The guy brought one hand up and removed the hood.
Felix gasped and started to laugh hysterically. I just looked at him like he was crazy.
"Felix, my man!" The guy said behind us. He had a very deep voice. He slowly let go of me and I ran to Felix.
I went behind his back and peaked from there. Felix took my hand in his and dragged me along with him.
"Don!" He chuckled.
They both gave each other a hug and a pat on the back. Felix pulled me forward and that's when I got a good look on this Don fellow.
He had the most mesmerizing eyes. They were a light ocean blue. He had a tan and well defined muscles. He looked quite handsome.
"This is my sister, Helena." Felix introduced us.
"Sorry if I gave you a little heartache. I wasn't trying to scare you." Don chuckled. I nodded my head at him.
"Are we already in Dark Moon territory?" Felix asked him. I gasped in shock. I've heard about Dark Moon territory. It had to be the biggest territory ever. With the strongest pack. The Alpha that had just taken over was young and extremely good looking. Well, that's what the rumors were about.
"Yeah, you did. You should've been happy I saw your happy ass jogging. Our trainers were doing their rounds and weren't expecting anyone. They would've attacked you guys." Don chuckled.
Felix smiled back at him.
"You ready to go?" Felix asked me.
They both looked at me, and I nodded my head.
"Thank you, Dom. This means the world to us. We'll just be staying for a while and then we'll be out of your way." I smiled at him in appreciation.
"No need to thank me, cutie. Your brother and I go way back. It's all I could do for a friend. Plus, the Alpha is my best friend. Hopefully, he'll understand and let you guys stay!" He smiled at me.
"I've heard Alpha Aaron is kind of rough and tough." Felix winced.
"He is, but nothing this beautiful young lady can't take care of!" Felix winked in my direction. He let out a growl and his eyes turned black.
"My sister will not do anything she doesn't want to. She will not persuade anyone!" He snapped.
Don smirked and raised his hands in surrender. "I was just playing. Chill!" He chuckled.
"Are you sure he'll be fine that we stay, Don?" I mumbled, feeling nervous.
"I'm pretty sure he will. Don't worry about it. I'll talk to him." He smiled.
We continued to walk to the pack house and once we arrived, a bunch of wolves snapped their head towards us.
"Move along. Nothing to see here. Keep going on with your duties!" Don waved his hand.
Don's wolf brought out this certain power.
"Felix, what's Don?" I asked him.
"As far as I know, I'm a guy!" Don chuckled.
"No no. That's not what I meant." I chuckled at him.
"I meant what's your position?" I asked him.
"Third in command." He stated proudly.
"You're really young." I commented. He tried to discreet and flexed his muscles. I giggled and shook my head.
"Anyways, where is Alpha Aaron?" Felix asked him.
"He's somewhere in the pack house. Why?" He replied.
"Does he know we've arrived?"
"Yes, I've informed him. He said he'll let you two settle in and then asked me if I could bring you guys down after." He replied.
We all walked inside the pack house and I could feel all the energy radiating off everyone.
We continued walking inside and soon reached the steps. I could see all the curious glances I was getting. I grabbed onto Felix's arm and looked down at my feet, as I was climbing up the stairs.
We suddenly stopped in front of a big door.
"I'll let you two freshen up. I'll come back in an hour with the Alpha so he can meet you two." Don said and with that he went back down the stairs.
Felix handed me my backpack and went to the other door. He opened the door slipped in, closing the door in the process.
I opened the door to the room I would be using and was amazing. It was a spacious room. With a king sized bed. It had s black comforter and a black canopy hanging over it. A dark grey carpet surrounded the bed and it led to another door.
What I realized was that it had a huge balcony. I opened one door to find out that there was a master washroom too.
I decided to take a shower, so I slipped out of the clothes I had and went inside the tub. The tub looked like it could fit over 10 people in it.
I pulled the curtain and turned the knob to warm. The water trickled down my back, erasing all the dirt from my body and removing all of the strained muscles. I heard a door opening so I peaked my head out of the curtain.
"Oh, it's you!" I sighed. Felix stood there with just a pair of shorts.
"I didn't hear anything, so I just came to check on you." He smile at me.
I turned off the water and quickly took a robe that was hanging by the tub. I wiped my body and placed the robe over my body and tied it. I put my hair in a bun and stepped out of the bathroom.
Felix sat there on the bed looking stressed.
"What happened?" I walked over to him and placed an arm over his shoulder.
He looked up and he looked stressed out.
"I should've been there when they forced you on dates." He whispered.
I ruffled up his hair.
"It's okay. I'm just glad I don't have to be there anymore." I smiled at him.
He stood up and wrapped his arms tightly around my waist.
We both heard a door slam and saw a very pissed off person. My eyebrows scrunched in confusion and I saw a huffing Don grabbing onto the guy's arm.
"Mine!" Is all the pissed off person said while stalking towards me.
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't deny it. My wolf was screaming only one word out.
Mate!
'Idiot, do something. Its our mate!' My wolf screamed at me. But, all I did was just stand like an idiot. "Mine!" He growled again. He stopped a couple of centimeters away from my face and I felt someone grab my hand. I looked down and saw Felix's hand wrapped around my wrist. I was roughly pushed behind him and his hand stayed on my wrist. Both men were growling at each other and Dom looked like he was going to pass out. "Let her go!" I heard the guy growl. "Aaron, calm down man!" Don huffed. "Don't fucking tell me to calm down!" The guy, Aaron, yelled at Don. Don jumped from the yell and bowed his head. Aaron came to face my brother, and pushed him roughly to the side. "Felix!" I yelled out. I ran over to where he had landed. There was a big gash across his forehead. "Oh my God! Felix, are you okay?" I whispered to him. "Why the hell are you asking him if he's okay?" Aaron snapped. "Because he's my damn brother!" I screamed at him. His face softened just a tiny bit. "Hel
"Luna, Alpha Aaron told me to come and get you." Don walked inside the room. "You can call me Helena. Luna's too proper." I shuddered to make my point. He chuckled and nodded his head. "I have a question, Luna." I glared at him. He caught on and chuckled. "Sorry. I have a question, Helena?" I smiled at him. I nodded my head at him, which signaled him to talk. "Why was Alpha Aaron mad?" My smile dropped and a blush appeared. "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked!" He bowed his head. I shook my head and mustered up a smile. "It's fine. We just had a little argument. That's all." He looked up at me and smiled. "Aaron's a good guy." He smiled. I nodded my head. The door slammed open and there stood a pissed off Aaron. "I told you to get her, not chit chat with her, Don," he said sternly. "Sorry, Alpha. Helena was just grabbing some things." He bowed his head. 'During these times, he can be a real bastard!' Don sent through a mind link. I held onto a chuckle that was about to break loos
"What are you doing here?!" Imer growled out. "W-What... What are you doing here?" I asked stupidly. Aaron just looked back and forth, clearly amused. He won't be amused after he finds out what had happened. Imer didn't even answer my question and he turned to Aaron. "Thank you, Aaron. I'll take your leave." He smiled at Aaron, and Aaron gave a curt nod and stood up. Imer stalked towards me and took my hand, dragging me along with him. "Hey! What do you think you're doing?" Oscar growled out. He stepped in front of Imer, and I felt someone pull me to their chest. I looked up to Aaron, shaking with anger. I stayed glued to his chest and Imer looked at Oscar. "I'm taking my mate back home!" Imer announced. Oscar cocked his head to the side and growled. "And who would that be?" Oscar asked him, he turned to look at me and his eyes shifted to a pitch black. "Helena!" Imer growled. I pushed myself closer to Aaron and didn't meet Imer eyes. I felt Aaron adjust himself so I was hi
"Helena!" Dad spat out. I didn't have time to react before he shifted into his brown wolf and leaped on me. "Helena!" I heard screaming but it was too late. My Dad started clawing at my face and by each swipe. I felt a burn and blood trickled down the side of my face. "You're stupid! How could embarrass me in front of the whole pack?!" My Dad sent through a mind link. My brain wasn't registering anything. I didn't know when someone pulled my Dad away because all I was seeing was black. I felt the blood continuously drip down my neck and down my cheeks. I could smell the scent of blood which was making me nauseous. "Stay with me. . . Please, baby. Stay with me." I heard someone shout but all I wanted to do was sleep. So that's what I did. ** "Helena, are you awake?" My eyes fluttered open to see Aaron's handsome face looking deeply at me. I smiled at him and he sighed in relief. "God, I thought something had happened to you!" And that's when it all hit me. I reached up to touch
"Helena..." Alpha Imer smirked at me. My eyes widened and jumped out of my bed. "Aaron!" I screamed as loud as I could but Imer snatched me, and threw me out the open window. I was waiting for the hard impact I was going to make when I fell to the sidewalk but nothing came. I opened my eyes and let out a terrified shriek. My father held me in his arms. His face had dried blood, covering it and his canines were out. "Make another sound, Helena, and you're fucking screwed." My father growled lowly at me. I heard someone land beside my father and saw Imer, smirking. "Let's go. We are going home." Tears started to pour down the side of my face, and I tried to get out of Dad's grip. His hand rose and slapped me across the face when I protest. "Don't make this hard for ourselves, Helena. I will kill you right now if you keep doing this," Dad warned me. They were still running, and I kept trying to get out of his grip. He threw me onto the ground and kicked my sides. The air was knoc
"I don't wanna go home. Please, Dad!" I cried out in pain. "Shut the fuck up, Helena, so you don't get hit again." My father said angrily in my face. "What did I ever do to you?" "You did everything. From the day you were born, I disliked you." He spat in my face. I took my sleeve and wiped away the spit. My legs were shackled in chains made of silver. Every time I moved them, they would burn and hurt. "Aaron will come for me." I whispered, full of hope. "Stop this craziness of yours, Helena! You will marry Imer, and that is my final decision." "Alpha, someone needs your assistance upstairs." Imer called out. He came down the steps and looked at me. "If Helana bothers you, just hit her," Dad replied. He sneered at me and walked up the steps. Once I heard the door slam close, Imer came to my side. My mouth fell opened when he unlocked the silver chains from my legs and helped me up. "W-What are you doing?" I asked astonished. "Imer. . . What are you doing?" "Helping you out. D
My heart pounded when the words left Imer's mouth. "Nothing will happen, baby." Aaron tried to soothe me, but it wasn't working. When Imer said my father was in a foul mood, that meant he would destroy everyone and everything that was in his way. "Helena!" A voice boomed. A voice I didn't want to hear. . . "Stay behind." Aaron growled. He quickly turned into his black wolf. My brother Felix, turned into his wolf and leaped forward. He snapped his teeth at Imer, and slowly walked over to the door. Felix ferociously snapped his teeth and soon my fathers' bloody body came into view. "Stay away," Don warned, but my father just chuckled. Aaron's wolf was huffing and his teeth continued to snap. I sidestepped away from them but Aaron was watching, and he pushed me behind him. He snapped his teeth at me, and Christian held me in place. I pushed his hands away and quickly got out of the way. "D-Dad, if it's me you want to talk to then here I am," I announced calmly. But inside, I was
AARON "Mother, what a surprise!" I plastered a fake smile, and so did she. "Likewise, honey. May I talk to you?" She looked at Helena, and back at me. "In private." I looked to Helena, and she got out of my arms and made her way back upstairs. I looked back at my mother and saw her eyeing me. "Why didn't you tell me you had found your mate? I was told through another pack member. Am I not your mother anymore?" She rambled. I rolled my eyes at her. "You would've stayed my mom even if I didn't tell you." I chuckled. She huffed and folded her arms. "I've just been kind of busy with all of the situations going on." I mumbled. "It looks like your mate has caused quite a scene already," she replied. My eyes snapped at her and I balled my fist. "She's my mate. I don't care what she does. I'll love her no matter what, Mom." I growled at her. I didn't want to show disrespect in front of my own mother, but my wolf didn't enjoy the fact that she was accusing our mate. "I never question
