I pulled her onto my lap, then settled her down betweenAxel's POV Continued "So you are saying that Luke could still be there? With the other guy that Ayla saw, around humans?Do you think they will hurt them?! I can't..can't... this can't be happening Axel, those people don't deserve to have to deal with them, not after keeping us hidden for so long and letting us make their home our home."I could feel her anxiety as she let everything sink in that I told her, but I can also feel her fighting to maintain her composure as she evens out her breathing.I forget sometimes, just how truly strong this woman is, how she can overcome more than anyone I've ever met. She has calmed herself down before I even managed to help with my touch. She closed her eyes, taking a few deep breaths before opening them to look up at me, concern written in her eyes yet a calm heart rate as she relaxes back onto the headrest of the bed."I assume you are going to contact the people there, let them know what
I want to be safe, to keep our kids safeRaven's POV Here I am sitting at the hospital, in a room alone, waiting for the doctor to come in for my check up to find out if I can come off of best rest. The waiting is killing me though, sitting here on this bed chair thing that's killing my back.I pray to the Moon Goddess that I can come off the best rest because I am honestly going stir crazy in the suite. I've had people in and out more this past week than ever before, so much interaction doesn't bother me really but it being done in my personal space seems to annoy me quite a bit.Today is the longest I have been out of there this entire past week. The moment I walked outside to head over here I breathed in so deeply I actually got a bit dizzy from all the fresh cool air that whipped around me.I didn't want to have a car take me here but I had no choice so even that didn't last long enough for me. Yet now, being in here all alone, the quiet surrounding me, only the small sounds of fe
She nodded but just stayed curled into herself for a while longerRaven's POV Continued It was as if I lost all feeling through out the entirety of my body as I stared at the screen. Every cell in body went numb as I just sat there, the room spinning around me as I watched him disappear behind the trees, fading into the darkness that surrounded him because of the denseness of the woods casting off nothing but dark shadows.I wanted to scream out, to run to Axel, to hide Ayla away from seeing his face ever again. So many things running through my mind yet I couldn't even open my mind link to tell Axel what I had just seen.Was it my imagination?I heard a muffled voice calling out to me but my eyes were still locked on the screen in front of me, questioning my sanity as I waited impatiently for him to come back out where I could see him once again, yet nothing.I don't even really know how long I sat there staring at the screen but then I felt a small hand grip onto me snapping me fro
Any movements on your end?Axel's POV When I had to leave Raven I felt a pang in my heart as I watched her scurry off to where Ayla was standing with our son. Unable to go to him, to stay with her, as I sent them off to be safe in the best way I knew how.Rushing out with Jason and David, we all took off, shifting mid air as we ran through the pack lands to the borders, each of us taking a separate one as Isaac already headed to the East. Retired or not now, he is still someone I count on heavily to help protect this pack.I hadn't shifted, in what felt like ages, Lucian claiming control as he took off running while keeping our pack link open for anyone to get a hold of us if needed.The wind whipping through our fur, the coolness of the air passing through to our body as we ran hard in this form. His legs extended with every step he took, the sense of freedom surrounding us as we came to a stop by the guards tower to the South where the main rogues had been spotted.Lucian pushed to
His hand went limp in mine as his eyes fluttered backAxel's POV Continued When I woke up it was dark outside. Deciding to go out to check things out I chose to shift. Being as dark as we are, without light you can't see Lucian when shifted at all, especially with our onyx colored eyes.Walking out the cold breeze hit my face making me take a deep breath before Lucian pushed forward as I removed my basketball shorts, he shifted slowly as his bones felt cold.Feeling each snap of our bones breaking before they realigned to form his enormous size. My face elongated as he howled deep inside our mind so he wouldn't alert anyone to our position.Padding our paws down, digging our claws into the cold earth around us we stretched out our body before shaking our fur out. The breeze whipped by us as it ruffled through the thick long midnight black fur in a soothing nature.I felt our neck stretch up as he inhaled all the scents that were surrounding us when one caught his attention drawing hi
Her scent surrounding me as I inhaled deeply.Axel's POV Continued It's been two days, two days of watching Timothy recuperate while staying out here away from my family while these damn rogues keep appearing in different areas at different times of the day, no pattern to it at all but definitely keeping us guessing and on our toes.I contacted the hunters society, calling a sort of truce, one that has been there for decades, so long as we keep our end and not attack human villages.Being in this decade, we work well with others, manage to stay off the radar of hunters besides the occasional rogue that may attack someone jogging through the woods they happen to be in, of course we even try to keep that maintained by hunting down a rogue that has killed someone.Basically we do everything in house when possible and the hunters have left us alone for a long time. They mainly go after vampires or witches that take qualms in hurting humans without a second thought. We on the other hand,
I hate you being away from me, my AlphaRaven's POV From the moment I caught his scent I was overwhelmed with so many emotions but this, this pure intimacy was everything I have been craving and so much more.We didn't need to have sex, or make love, I just needed to be held in his arms, to feel his presence surrounding my body.Taking advantage of his scent, it being fresh and intoxicating compared to his pile of clothes, dirty or clean, that now sat in the corner of my bedroom where I would curl myself into it at night after everyone else fell asleep.I held him tightly, my fingers digging into his flesh as he continued to kiss me deeply, my head tilted to the side allowing him better access as he started trailing the kisses down my chin to my neck, his tongue sliding over my mark sending shivers up my spine at the feel of it.I looked down at where his fingers were, gently moving over the edge of my panty line, watching the goosebumps raise up on my skin as my bottom lip pulled be
The metallic copper scent of blood filling my sensesAxel's POV When I got back to the lookout, Timothy was pacing outside when he spotted me coming up in wolf form. When I got up to him he held out a pair of shorts and a shirt to me as I shifted back.I pulled the shorts on before I started pulling the shirt over my head when he spoke. His tone held a hint of worry before I looked up at him to see his expression holding so much more."Axel, I'm glad your back, how is your Luna holding up?""She will be better when this is all done. But enough with the pleasantries, what's wrong Timothy?"He ran his hand down his face while sighing deeply."They found the cave, they killed a good thirty rogues but no one else was there, they found traces of the others, including the hunters. However, they were attempting to track their whereabouts.""Were attempting?"I felt heart beat spike suddenly when the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stood up as I looked at him before hearing a howl making
