Hera is running as fast as she could. The thick forest is dark despite it being a sunny day. She is out of breath and stumbled more than a few times. The thick branches of the trees are scratching her limbs. She ignored the stinging feeling and ran for her life. If her father, who is the Alpha of her pack found her, then he will beat her to death.
She just turned 18 and she decided to run away from her abusive father and the tormenting pack members who are supposed to make her feel belonged and protected. Instead, all they did is torment her. She left behind the pack she grow up in and ran away to protect herself and her wolf whom she met last night after she turned 18.
Hera is a werewolf and every werewolf would shift into their wolf form when they are 12 or 13 years old. But Hera didn't, which added fuel to her already miserable life. Her father began to treat her as if she is worthless and unfit to be the daughter of an Alpha.
After waiting for so long, Hera finally connected with her wolf last night. She couldn't shift, but her wolf talked to her as soon as the clock struck 12 and encouraged her to run.
'You have to run Hera. If you stay here, they will kill you one day. This is not a healthy atmosphere for us. I think that's why we couldn't shift into our wolf form. I was dormant for all these years, but I could see how they all treat you. This pack consists of a bunch of cruel people as pack members. Let's get out of here ' her wolf ' Isa ' urged her.
She was already desperate to leave the pack, but she was scared. After the little push she got from her wolf she packed up what little belongings she had along with her savings and left before anyone could wake up and notice that she is gone.
After 8 hours of non-stop running, Hera finally stopped to catch her breath. She found a small pond nearby. She walked towards the pond and greedily drank water from it. She washed her wounds and noticed that her clothes are torn and barely hanging to her thin frame.
"You are trespassing," a commanding male voice thundered from all around her, which made her jump with fear. She turned to face the owner of the voice. As soon as her eyes landed on the God-like man, her mouth became dry. Her skin tingled with an unknown feeling.
He is tall and might be around 6.6 feet. His silky jet black hair, which is slightly longer is teasing his ears and his neck. He has a straight nose and olive skin tone with high cheekbones. His shirtless torso is muscular and her palms itched to feel the ridges and grooves of his ab muscles.
He is the most beautiful man she has ever seen in her life, not that she had seen many. But compared to the men of her pack, he is stronger and his aura is demanding respect. His black eyes peppered with orange specks in them are staring at her blankly. He looks like he is in his early 20s.
Logan Harris is rich and he is the CEO of the expensive gemstones company which he founded and owned. He has more money than he can count and he is cold and unmoving. He is like a robot working night and day. He can have any woman he wants and he uses them when he wants. When he is done, he will never look at the same woman again. He hates relationships and avoids them like plague.
Something that happened 7 years ago strained his relationship with his father and made him hate being in a relationship. Since then, he barely visits his pack and lives in the city on his own. He is a Lycan and a pure blodded one at that. He can command any supernatural being with one glance. He also have some magical abilities, which he owned from his grandfather.
Even though Leo is his twin brother born only 20 mins after him, Leo didn't inherit the magical abilities like Logan. After Logan left the pack, now its Leo who would take over the pack after his father Alexander Harris.
Logan looked at the girl with a frown. She is tall for a girl. She is easily 5.8. Her dark brown hair is dirty and so is her face and body. Her clothes are torn and are barely hanging from her frame. Her arms and legs have scratch marks and a few of them are bleeding. Her bare feet have mud caked on them.
He can smell her wolf, but her scent is unique. He is sure she is a werewolf, but her scent, which is a mixture of lavender and something else is making him curious. Despite her dirty appearance, he can see that she is beautiful under all that mud and dirt. By the looks of it, she doesn't appear to be of legal age.
His senses are urging him to go towards her and make her his. His Lycan is pushing to take over. Which is obnoxious. He never had this kind of reaction towards any woman. For him, they are just tools to be used for his pleasure. Losing his mind over a girl is not his style.
'What is wrong with you Ray? You have seen gorgeous women before. And this one is not that hot. More over look at her dirty appearance. You haven't seen her face yet. What are you doing pushing your way to the forefront of my mind?' he chided his Lycan with irritation.
Ray, his Lycan snorted.
'Don't tell me you are not feeling the pull from that woman. She is calling to us without even opening her mouth. I want to hug her and assure her that everything will be alright ' Ray replied dreamily.
Logan gritted his teeth.
'Focus, she looks harmless but looks can be deceiving. Mooning over a stranger is dangerous to our pack. She looks like a rogue' he reminded his lycan.
Even though he left ' the Blood moon pack ' a long time ago, the people in this pack are still his and their safety is his responsibility.
Ray grumbled with displeasure but remained silent.
"Are you deaf?" he snapped when Hera failed to respond to him.
That snapped her out of her trance. She began to panic.
'What if he tells my father where to find me? It's better if I run away from here ' she thought.
"I was passing by. I stopped by to drink some water. I will leave now" she replied meekly.
Her voice is melodic and he found it is pleasant to his ears.
His domineering aura is unmistakable. She is sure that this man carries alpha blood. Belatedly she recognised that he is not an ordinary wolf.
'He is a lycan' Isa muttered inside her head. But strangely, neither Isa nor Hera are scared. They are curious. His presence is making her feel at peace. But she know lycans are dangerous. So she decided to get away from there as soon as she can.
Lycans are superior species to werewolves and they are treated as royalty because they are much too powerful to truffle with.
She turned to leave, but stumbled over a tree root and fell on the forest floor. She hissed with agonising pain that began to radiate from her right ankle.
'You sprained your ankle' Isa noticed worriedly.
'Oh God, not now' Hera began to panic.
"Idiot" Logan muttered irritably, but he was by her side in the next second. He helped her off the floor. When she was struggling to stand on her own, he lifted her off her feet and carried her towards the pond.
She began to panic.
"Please don't throw me inside that pond. I don't know how to swim" she begged with fear.
He gave her a pointed glare.
"Shut up" he hissed, which made her close her mouth immediately.
'Clumsy girl' he thought.
Despite his anger, he found her cute.
Logan carried Hera into the pond and stopped when the water reached his waist level. Slowly he lowered her into the water, careful not to hurt her injured leg."Hold on to me and don't put weight on your right leg" he instructed her.Hera is so scared, that she did as she was instructed without protest.When he raised his hands to wash the dirt off her face, she tightly closed her eyes out of fear. She heard that Lycans are territorial and they don't like werewolves or humans if they trespass into their lands. So Hera is worried that he might kill her. She is so weak with out her ability to shift into her wolf form yet, she is not his match in any way."Please don't kill me" she begged with her eyes still closed shut.Logan's lips twitched lightly, which confused him. He is a cold asshole. Nothing amuses him. He is not emotional like his twin Leo. He is calculative and practical. His mind is telling him to send this girl away, but for the fir
Logan's cabin is small with an open floor plan. A small portion of the cabin is used as the kitchen and a big king-sized bed is placed to one end of the cabin. Apart from the main door, there is another door which leads to the bathroom. It has a centralised heating system and an air conditioning system. It has 24 hours water supply as well. A small portion of the area around the cabin is cleaned from the overgrown bushes and extended branches. It is small but clean. He stocks up the small fridge with fresh food. This cabin is situated near the borders of the Lycan pack, which is spread in an area of ten thousand hectares. The pack members live in small towns which are spread all over these 10000 hectares.The Blood moon pack is beautiful with small ponds every here and there and lush green forest surrounded by hills which has beautiful water falls.Compared to the werewolf population, the Lycan population is less. There are only some 2000 Lycans in the world and more t
Hera is sleeping on one side of the bed and Logan is sleeping on the other side. She is wide awake. Despite being tired, her mind refused to relax and rest. 'You need to tell me something about yourself ' he demanded to know about her pack and where she came from. She is scared to trust a total stranger. Till now he was good to her. But that can change any second. He might be pretending. As soon as she reveals her identity, he might send a word to her father and might send her packing. That's what she is scared about the most. That's why she remained quiet until he gave up for the time being and asked her to sleep. She is sure he is not going to let it go. He would begin to inquire as soon as she woke up the following morning. 'What should I do now? I can run away from here as well. I can hide in a human town' she thought. Slowly she turned to face the man sleeping beside her. She remembered how she agreed to sleep beside him on this bed.
"Baby girl," Logan said in a commanding tone and she instantly became quiet. That's when she opened her eyes and looked at the man hovering over her with a frown. When Hera opened her eyes, Logan could see fear. He is confused. 'She had a nightmare?' he thought with concern. She is shaking with fear and tears began to stream down her cheeks. "What happened? You had a bad dream?" he asked her softly. She shook her head, unable to speak through her tears. Logan frowned. Even though he couldn't understand what is wrong with her, her fear is making him angry. He wanted to kill the person who put that look in her eyes. He pulled her into a hug and made her sit in his lap. On instinct, she wrapped her arms around his abdomen and rested her head on his chest. Logan slowly stroked her hair. When she finally calmed down and her shivering stopped, he decided to ask her what happened. "What happened just now?" he asked her softly.
When Hera heard about the Lycan spell, she became excited. She would no longer be scared of anyone. She can live her life without constantly looking behind her for any threats. "I like this spell..." She shared her opinion excitedly. But then, all of a sudden her excitement is gone and is replaced with a frown. Logan shook his head with amusement. "Now what? Something bothering you?" he murmured, looking at her cute frown. Hera nodded her head. "If this spell is so powerful, then it must be expensive. But I don't have any money to pay for the spell" she replied sadly. Logan couldn't help but laugh at her concern. He is one of the richest men in the world. He has more money than he can count. He could buy ten islands at once with his monthly profits. Even then a few billion dollars would be left for him to spent. He don't need money. Hera frowned. "Why are you laughing?" She asked with confusion.
The next morning, Logan is woken up by an insistent knocking on his door. He groaned with irritation. He was having the best sleep after so many years, but someone dared to disturb him. He opened his eyes to look at the time. But his sleepiness is gone in an instant when he realised why he is sleeping so peacefully. Hera is sleeping with her head resting on his chest. One of her arms is thrown haphazardly over his abdomen and one of her legs is draped over his thighs. Almost half of her body is lying over his. The most shocking thing is, one of his arms is wrapping around her small waist. Logan likes to sleep alone. He never let any of his one night stands to sleep in his bed. As soon as he finishes, he will leave. He never let his flings to enter his bedroom, never alone sleep on his bed. But he let Hera inside his private cabin. He insisted that she sleep on his bed. And he is holding her as if she is the most precious thing in the
After Leo left, Logan walked inside the cabin after locking the door after himself. He looked at Hera, who is now sleeping in the place where he slept until a few minutes ago. She must have moved to his side of the bed after he left. He contemplated whether to wake her or not. But looking at her peaceful sleeping face, he decided not to disturb her.Quickly he took a bath a changed into a pair of black jeans and a black t-shirt. He left a note near her pillow stating that he will be back soon. With that, he left the cabin leaving her behind. Little did he know that her father is waiting for a chance to take her back to his pack.Kael Wilson, Hera's father looked at Logan's retreating figure. He identified the person as a Lycan, but he didn't get a chance to look at his face."He left. Now is our only chance to drag her back to the pack" Kael's Beta, Jason whispered. They are too scared to talk out loud. They fear that the Lycan might hear their voices and
3 years later.... Logan punched his opponent with so much power that his opponent fell down making a loud noise. He was writhing on the floor with pain and couldn't get up. Logan is still not satisfied. He signaled the referee to send another opponent. The Lycan referee hesitated a little. Logan is so powerful as it is and on top of it, he is angry. He has been in a typical mood for the past three years. So he is fighting to vent out his anger. No one knows what made Logan Harris change drastically. But whenever he feels restless, he visits this Lycan training ground and begins to fight. Already 6 of his best Lycan fighters are injured. He is not willing to send the others to a similar fate. If this goes on like this, by the end of this day, all the Lycan warriors will be injured. Usually, Lycans heal within minutes. But Logan's punches are so powerful, it is taking them at least one day to heal completely. The referee looked at Logan's twin Leo
