Are you going to keep nagging me or will you prefer telling Lance that he is mistaken for his mate and perhaps suggest to him that you are his true mate instead?" I said, trying my best to sound as sarcastic as I could. Oh no! I have absolutely zero interest in Lance. Anyways, if you still don't believe me then I guess I should let you know that I am mated to Mike!"Wait, Mike was her mate? He did not strike me like someone who could be mated let alone be mated to Petra. There was nothing wrong with the pair! I told myself. They fitted well in terms of power matching one another. I was going to wish it were so for Lance and I but I remembered the promise I made silently to myself to stop giving two shits about Lancelot. "That's awesome! Although, I'm wondering why you both don't act like it?" I said, carelessly. "Mike is a tad bit worse than your Lance," Petra said. "Really? Have you seen Lance lately? How he constantly embarrasses me-""Save it! Hayley, you are weak and that is o
Come on! Where did all that fire in me go? I melted under his cold gaze as he let go of my hand."Em um I'm-""Sorry, I don't understand gibberish," Lance said. Why wouldn't I sound like that when he was shirtless and his scent did stupid things to me. "It's just that I wanted to go home for a few minutes and talk with my sister." I finally got the words out but that sounded more like I was taking permission. I wanted to demand it. "Gray," he called, looking past me. "Did I stutter?" He banged the door in my face and I shook out of fear. Gray threw his hands in the air!"I told you to leave it," he said. "But-""Why is it so difficult for you to listen to me Hayley?" Gray yelled. To think that Gray of all people would yell at me. I was downcast and I moved past him like he was a ghost. "Hayley, Hayley I'm sorry I yelled okay," he said, doubling his pace. Gray doubled his pace but still could not meet up with me. Anger, sadness and a bunch of negative emotions bubbled up withi
Then I realized something."Beam!" "What is it?" she said to me like it was forbidden to call her name. "Do you know where I can get some nails and a hammer?" I said, trying to sound like a good aunt. "Nails and hammer you say?" Beam pinched her nose with both hands, expanding the holes. "What's that?" I asked, in total confusion. "Check my nose," Beam said. Her voice was muffled. The other children laughed. I chose to ignore her and turned to leave. "Okay fine," Beam said. "Jeez, you're so grumpy. Come with me, it's in the tool box that's kept in the kitchen store."The kitchen? Not again! Whenever I went in there everyone looked at me with expectations. I was definitely not an Omega wolf or a chore wolf, whatever they thought me as. I felt a bit more relaxed though, this time, as I walked into the kitchen. I am your future Luna duh, the voice came unexpectedly and strong in my head. "Hey, the chore wolf is here again!" Tyler, Simon's brother from my pack announced. "She's
Out in the fields, Gray and I were sparring and I was pretty much getting my ass whooped. We had gone through the basic morning exercises and now he was showing me some real moves. As usual where there was a fight between two werewolves, trust there would definitely be spectators of pack mates. The summer sun glinted into my eyes as I laid on the floor in defeat and bit the dust. Gray offered me a hand and smiled down at me. I stretched out my arm and he gripped mine powerfully as he pulled me up.”Ah, you are picking up!” he said to me once I was back up on my feet.“Oh please! I’m still getting my ass kicked and you’re not even breaking a sweat.”He shrugged.“Well, I’m pretty much the second strongest person around here. So don’t beat yourself up if you feel like you’re not doing much improvement.”“What next?” I asked hungry to move on to the next lesson.“Now, you are going to come at me in your were-form, super speed, claws and fangs. I’ll try to fend you off in my normal form.
I went back into my room and by this time my rib seemed fine, luckily. A thought occured me that I did not know if there had been any significant changes to how fast I healed since I lost my magic which often sped up the process. I let my thoughts run over to Lance as I took a shower. It had been a few days since I saw or heard from him. Gray assured me that he is doing well. To be frank, the boring routine of waking up, doing chores or training, sometimes both and eating got me feeling jaded. I longed for something more. I entertained the thought of slipping away for a few minutes but I would do that the next day. There was a continuous knocking on my door. Who the hell knocks like that?I stormed my way to get the door. "I swear Lucas if that's you-"It was just Beam. I eased up and gave her a friendly smile."Get your ass over to the turrets, Hayley, Gray needs you there pronto!" Beam said."My what!" I asked, almost reaching for her little ears so I could pull them, but she sli
The phone's battery was low and it required me to charge it unless it threatened to power off which was like it just basically dying for a while. It reminded me of vampires. I needed Gray's assistance with something. The socket in my room was either not working or the phone itself had a problem with charging. I came out of my room but then I suddenly remembered that I had left the phone carelessly on the bed. As I turned back to my door, I was greeted with the most cruel message written on my door in eight words. It read: Hayley the Luna you will surely die here. I got my phone and bolted out of the room to get Gray. "So what do you think?" I asked as we stood in front of my door. "I don't know Hayley, it could be a prank," he said, sounding nonchalant. "Werewolves like to prank newbie werewolves or perhaps someone's just trying to scare you out of jealousy that Lance announced you as his mate. It could even have been Beam!""Very funny," I said, but there was nothing funny about
"Um, excuse me? You said?" I was totally unsure what she meant. I mean I knew the word but did not understand the context with which it was being used. "Bonding, as in family time, pack time. All the pack mates come together to see a movie every Friday. We missed it last Friday though."Beam came closer to me. "What is it?" I asked her suspiciously. "I kinda promised my friends that I could get you to allow them to play games with your phone," she whispered. If the children could control their hearing abilities as werewolves then Beam whispering was quite unnecessary but still I played along."What? Well, that's not happening.""But you said if I behaved like a good girl I can have access for a lifetime," she said, sounding betrayed. "Fine, but not now, okay? My charger is faulty and Gray hasn't gotten me a new one."I patted her hair and she grumbled. "You're lying Hayley! Stop lying to little children!" her voice rose intermittently. I laughed."No, Beam I'm not lying, you co
There was a guard outside, he was in charge of the back door, so he was my only issue. Luckily, I had just the solution, I planned on spraying him a bit of my ibuprofen silver to make him unconscious but just as I arrived, I found him fast asleep. It was to my own advantage. I kicked a plate that I assumed it was what the guard had used to eat and it made a very loud noise. "Who's there?!" the guard said, immediately looking alert. I sprayed him with my ibuprofen which knocked him unconscious in a matter of seconds. "Sorry," I whispered to the unconscious guard, opening up the door. The scouts on patrol duty were situated at the allure. The allure or wall-walk was found at the top of a curtain wall, normally found on the inside of the wall. This allowed them to look over the top of the wall to look for enemies. One of the men stood in the middle. The other two men were patrolling back and forth from the middle man's left and right hand side like characters from a video game. And de
