********** RILEY**********
I woke up again in the tiny bit of space called a prison, I always dream that one day a prince charming will come and sweep me off my feet but again that only happens in movies. “Riley, is he not coming today?” Josh asked. He was a nine year old kid whose mother died not quite long but was surprisingly taking it good.He is right.He ought to be here by now, telling us what our punishments will be and dishing them out.I suddenly heard footsteps, each step was making my heartbeat increase the more because whenever he is here, we always end up in trouble.The footsteps became louder and the door opens and it turns out to be Noah.Noah was my mate, I was beyond overjoyed when I found out he was my mate but the joy didn’t last long because his father made him reject me.It was like I was dying that day. Each time I recall that moment, the more my heart breaks.“You have to go, he will be back soon” Noah said as he unlock my cage and turn towards the others.“What do you mean?” I asked as I stumble to get myself in position and out of the prison.“He got drunk last night and forgot the keys before he left for his journey and knowing him, he will be back soon. Run and don’t ever come back” He said in a stern tone.“What about you?” Reuben, a thirteen year old who is also there with us and his baby sister asked while Josh held Noah’s hand.“He will kill you if he finds out you helped us” I said scared for his life.“I will take it as my punishment for rejecting you. Now leave” He said as he opened the back door.I stare at him for one last time before grabbing Josh’s hand and we all finally starts running, running away from the monster who had kept us there for years.We were free.Free from him.We are finally free.Maybe some dreams do come true.“Am hungry” Josh said after we finally stopped for what seems like hours.“Same here” Reuben said as I searched desperately for what we could possibly eat.“Do you hear that?” Reuben asked and we all kept quiet and I could hear footsteps approaching.It wasn’t coming in our directions but as if luck wasn’t on our side Daniella, Reuben’s baby sister starts crying.“Who are you and what are you doing on our lands?” A voice said and I look up to see a tall guy with two other people beside him,two ladies smiling at us, one rather devilishly.What does he mean by their land?Did we trespass into their territory?“Am sorry, we had no idea it was your territory, we were just passing by” I explained.“So you are rogues” He said.“That explains the stench” The lady beside him said while glaring at me.“Follow me” He commanded.“I will rather go my way and leave” I said and they all chuckled.“Nobody trespasses and go leave freely as he or she wishes. Now be a good rogue and follow us” The other lady who had been silent said and I growled at them.“You seriously like to play dirty, don’t you?” The guy said before hitting me on my neck and I black out.I woke up in a cell, well it does look more fancier than that of Noah’s but doesn’t mean I still didn’t hate it.I look over my side and see the kids and rush over to them to see if they are okay.“Did they hurt you? Are you okay?” I asked both of them while checking to make sure Ella was okay.“They didn’t beat us like I thought they would” Reuben said and I heave a sigh of relief.I will do anything to get out of here, it wouldn’t be like before.I can’t make the same mistake twice.*********CADEN**********I was beyond exhausted. I had been running for hours in order to let my wolf out.Out in order to have a taste of the world.I headed towards the pack when I saw Keith and Amelia coming towards me.“Is everything alright?” I asked.“Well we caught three rouges” Keith said and I growled.“Well four if we include the baby” Amelia said and I groaned.What were rogues doing in our territory?.We haven’t had any issue like this for a long time.“Increase the number of people looking over the border” I said to Keith and he nodded.“When are you going to see them?” He asked.“I need to see Mom first before going into full beast mode” I said before heading towards the pack house.I walked inside the house to receive greetings from people to which I gladly replied. I made my way to Mom’s suite and open the door to see her painting as always.“Did you see her?” She asked and I immediately knew she was talking about my mate.“Just because I go out of the pack lands do
*********RILEY*********Valerie and I made our way downstairs and I saw the guy and lady that were with Val when we were captured again.“Why on earth is she roaming round the pack house?” The guy asked.“And why in the world isn’t she in a cell?” The other lady asked.“Will you both calm down? Caden was the one who took her away from the cell. He will explain when he comes back” Valerie said.“That doesn’t mean she gets to roam around the pack house where kids are” The lady said.“And may I ask why?” I said and she glare at me.“Because rogues are vicious and crazy mutts who ought to be killed” She said and I frowned.“I haven’t done anything wrong” I said while Val leads me to the kitchen.“You might have not done anything here but you certainly did something hence the reason why you got banished from your pack” She said while following us into the kitchen.“Don’t mind their manners. That is Amelia and Keith. They are actually fun to be with but they detest rogues” Valerie said.“Du

********RILEY**********We all went downstairs and met Caden and his friends chatting in the living room.“Do you need anything?” Valerie asked while making her way over to where I was.“Do you think I can get baby food anywhere?” I asked while trying to make Ella stop her cries but it really isn’t working.“The only thing you can find is milk but Caden’s younger sister has a baby so you can get baby food from her” She said.“And where can I find her?” I asked.“She is not staying in the pack house” Keith said as he makes his way over to where we are standing and I groaned.“But I can take you to where you can shop for that” He said and Caden growl.What is his problem?.“Or perhaps Caden can take you there” He said with a nervous laugh.“Couldn’t you have offered like a normal human being?” I asked.“I will back in a second” He said before going upstairs.“I want to go with you” Josh said while holding on to my jeans.“How about you stay with Reuben and Val. I will be quick” I said a
********RILEY*******I was beyond scared for two reasons.One, I have never trained before.Two, Amelia hates me.“Think of your partner as your enemy on battle field, the goal is to make sure your partner ends up on the ground. You may rough them up a little but make sure to be careful.” Keith said.What sort of training is this?Rough your partner up.Yeah right.More like Amelia is going to kill me.“Begin” Before Keith could finish his statement, I felt a punch on my face.That hurtsssss.“Ohhh, am sorry, did that hurt?” She said in a mocking manner.“Yeah right” I said annoyed at the fact that she is launching her anger at me.“If you can’t fight then am sure you aren’t cut out to be Luna” She said before throwing the second punch which I narrowly evaded.More punches swam in and the more the punches, the more she was enjoying my pain.I couldn’t bear it anymore.“Fucking stop” I yelled drawing a little bit of attention to us“Ohh is the little missy scared that her face is
********CADEN********Getting to know Riley and the kids was kind of fun but as much as it was fun, the pack were asking about who she is and how she is related to me.I wasn’t scared of their reaction when they find out she is mate, I was scared of the series of competition that was going to follow.If someone who is a rogue, a vampire or human turns out to be an Alpha’s mate, it was mandatory for the pack members to come out if interested to fight the position of Luna because many believes such a person isn’t capable of leading a pack.“Can I come in?” Mom said as she pecks through door.“Yes, you can” I said and she smiled before walking in and take a seat in front of me.“You hate entering my office, is anything the matter?” I asked knowing how much she detest coming here ever since Dad died.“Well, I wanted to talk to you about something and it can’t wait”.“What is it?”“It is about Riley and the pack. People are asking questions, even though I have an idea why you are doing thi
********RILEY********* I woke up to a knock on the door, why does everyone likes to disturb my sleep?.It is annoying.I stood up and walk lazily to the door only to be greeted by Amelia.“Rise and shine, sleeping beauty” She said with a big smile on her face.“Why are you so happy early in the morning?” I asked.“Training starts today” She said and I groaned.“Why do I feel like am about to start the suffering of my entire life” I said and she chuckles.“Nah, am past over that” She said.“Go and dress up” She said and I head over to the bathroom to freshen up.We go over to the pack grounds for training since Amelia said no one is going to disturb us.“Rule number one, the person you are fighting with isn’t your friend but your enemy” She said and I nodded.“The most important is to be in align with your wolf, she will be able to quickly detect whenever punches is coming in. You should also make sure you study your partner’s movements and be able to quickly detect his or her weaknes
********RILEY*********I woke up early today and had training before going over to take care of Ella and Josh.“Riley, I need clothes” Josh said and I nodded.He was right.Caden had given us some clothes he borrowed from someone but we couldn’t keep using it plus, the clothes does not fit.“How about I ask Val for shopping and we can go?” I said and he nodded.“Hey, I was about looking for you” Val said once I get out of the room.“Is everything alright?” I asked.“I thought you guys might need some clothes and decided it was high time we go out for shopping” She said.“I was about to ask you the same thing” I said and she smiles.“Amelia is joining us so let me inform her” She said.“But I don’t know who will help me babysit Ella” I said.“I will ask Caden’s Mom if she can help, am sure she will love to” She said and I nodded.“I will dress up and meet you downstairs” I said before heading back in.I quickly freshen up and dress up before dressing Josh up and headed downstairs with
