Bloodline Redemption 20
{ Remi }I step into the living room and while my jitters are calmed thanks to Nov, my brain is still misfiring. I'm sworn into the Fire Rock pack, I've been apart of that pack over 20 years. So why is my mark on my skin, from Silver Rock? This had to be a sign, I mean obviously it was a sign. But did it only mean we belonged there, or did it mean even more?I pull out my phone and dial Armi's name without stopping to rethink it anymore."Hey, what's up?" He sounds winded and I Realize he was running."I just wanted to let you know I'd be out of touch for a few days.""Oh?""Yeah, my mate shifted last night and uh, well I'm gonna be a little preoccupied. I already called the clinic, everyone is aware I'll be gone and it's in good hands but I wanted you to know why I'd be out of touch and off the pack lands."He chuckles loudly when I tell him I'll be preoccupied and I can picture his stupid smirk on his face."Yeah I appreciate the heads up and I definitely understand. Wouldn't want a

“What uh, what do you mean Joal?” Joe asked hesitantly.Joal’s eyes didn’t leave me. I was standing a few steps back from Nov and her father, my hands in my pockets as I let them engage. I wasn’t sure what to say necessarily, but I knew that this would be one of those moments that defined a lot of what was to come. I felt a need to tell them my name, to show who I was. My wolf wanted to claim it, take it back and this entire pack with it the longer we stood in these walls. I wasn’t as far down the rabbit hole as he was, but I did know I was on the right trail.“Remington Calloway, nice to meet you,” I told him as I stepped forward and extended my hand to Joal. He didn’t hesitate to take it and shake it firmly. I saw a sort of questioning in his eyes, a test. Something I was sure I would face a lot here with the ones who knew my father and would wonder who I was compared to him. The other three elders sucked in breaths as I said my full name but I didn’t take my eyes off Joal.“He foun

I crack my neck while his voice continues to echo throughout this giant room. Not sure if I’m overwhelmed by irritation out of the sheer amount of irrelevance for me being here or by the anxiety I haven’t been able to curb since last night, but either way I feel like my skin is on fire and I know what that means is coming soon. I tune in long enough to deduce that we are not anywhere near done yet so I begin to figure my way out of here undetected. Step one: sit in the back. And that one is always a given for me.I glance around discretely and focus in on Armi’s face for a few moments. His eyes never meet mine, so I know I’m in the clear. Next I find my parents. They are second row, deeply involved despite it being irrelevant to them as well. I don’t even bother to hold back my smirk as the plan to leave unfolds cleanly.My chair in the dining hall is against the back wall, but the best part about it is that it&

“I need to leave. Next week. For a little while.”“To look for her?”Damn, he really was on the button today.“Yeah.”“So it’s about her. Not anything else?”“No Armi, and that’s the truth. It’s all about her. Everyday is a fucking struggle and I made Delta a promise that if we hadn’t found her by this full moon we would spend a little while looking. Even if she isn’t close by, at least if I look he might get off my back.”“I get that. Ozzy is fucking obnoxious as well. I’ve been thinking about doing something like that as well. An informal visit to the surrounding packs to revisit any contracts and such but also see if my mate’s there.”“It’s exhausting isn’t it?”For a moment, I a

I stared for a beat too long, I knew it but I couldn’t help it. Neither of us moved, seemingly frozen there in our trance.“I’m sorry,” she said shaking her head a bit and blushing. “I didn’t mean to stare. Or to startle you, I didn’t realize you would be..”“Sleeping under the receptionist desk? Isn’t that usually where you find the Doctor?”She smiled again and this time it was genuine and it was followed by a perfect melody as her laughter filled the room.“Yes, yes of course. That’s why I checked here first, obvious spot.”I rolled out from under the desk and stood up, dusting off my shirt as I turned to face my mate, my heart beating out of my chest at the reality she was here.“I’m Novaleigh,” she extends her hand out to me and I immediately take it, happiness overfl

“Yes?”“Are you at the clinic?”“Yes I am, what’s up?”“I just came by your place and you weren’t there. I was out for my morning run and got worried you ditched out again for another weekend of searching. Couldn’t sleep?” I wanted to tell him the truth but couldn’t in present company so I just kept it vague.“Nah, you either?”“Nope. Oh well, more time to work I guess.”“Yeah, but that isn’t always a bad thing.” her scent is getting stronger the longer we stand here and I can’t help but be torn about whether this was a bad thing or not.“Definitely not. I kinda need it actually, a lot going on with all the negotiations for new contracts business and truce wise that are up for review this year. Hey stop by later if

I thought more about that as I climbed into my car and fired it up, turning the heat to defrost the window. His eyes were the thing I found myself fixated on but damn if I couldn’t look at everything else just as much. He was a good 5 inches taller than me. He had dark brown hair and light brown eyes. His hair was shorter on the sides and wasn’t too long on the top, just enough to be messy but not enough to look unprofessional. He was also in deliciously good shape. I’d only seen him in long sleeve button down shirts but I could make out that he was strong and lean and a part of me was dying to rip them off him.Ok, and we are now turning down the heat cause I’m hot enough to warm the car. Get it together, Novaleigh.I drove down the road and crossed through the woods until town came into view. My mind was still reeling with thoughts of Remi but as soon as I saw the old sign for that bar I felt my stomach clench

Her scent was mixed with the smell of her blood and I focused on the tingles dancing on my skin instead of this because otherwise I was going to rage out of here and rip off Clarice’s head.We were like that for another 10 or 15 minutes before she moved slightly. I debated putting her down real quick, unsure how she would feel about me holding her, but before I could her eyes fluttered open and she groaned out loud as all the pain made itself known again. Her hand came up to touch her face and she flinched. Then her head tilted back and she looked up to my face. I just stared down at her, my heart broken that this was my fault.“Hello there.” she slurs and I chuckle cause she is adorable.“Hi, how are you feeling?”“Everything hurts.” She pauses a minute and closes her eyes before opening them again and blinking to adjust to the lights. “Did you have to
