"What does that mean?" Alpha came to stand between us, "why would we have to kill the host?""If you don't, you're not only putting your pack in danger you're putting our entire species in dange, the hunger the red wolf has is insatiable and the control of her powers are unstoppable, if you do not kill the host, the red wolf won't die.""But Clarion says finding the source out is useful in preserving the life of the red wolf.""The source is from the mother," he said, causing us all to look at my mum.She widened her eyes, frowning at him, "excuse me, she cheated on the child's father, he was a descendant of a previous red wolf centuries ago, he laid the curse on her.""What? That's not possible, my dad died before he knew my mum was preg-" I trailed off realising that none of it was probably true."That has nothing to do with the red wolf, you only have to kill the host to get rid of the wolf, the only thing I can do is transfer the red wolf to a different host but whoever it is has
It felt like a lot to comprehend but I had expected something like this to happen. A part of me hoped that the red wolf would surface and save me from this situation while other parts wanted Asher to go ahead, knowing that if he killed me here it would put an end to the mystery and it would save others from being hurt.“Don’t hate me for this,” he sighed, “I don’t deserve to live the rest of my life like this.”I couldn't Phantom how he knew about me to begin with, none of it made sense. I closed my eyes waiting for impact when all of you saw I heard a loud cry and Asher let go my neck.I reopened my eyes only to find that he had hurt his hand.I looked around me in confusion only to find Riggs Standing a few meters away from us. He’d thrown a small knife at Asher’s hands. One of the men that had accompanied alpha Mateo was here as well. Beta waved me over, beckoning that I went to stand beside him. I went to stand behind him while he reached for Asher. Asher tried to back away bu
It felt like we were walking forever but he finally stopped still in the middle of nowhere. The other man that was accompanying us assisted beta to place me on the floor. There was a huge tree here, and a rampsack bag. He began to rumble through it, and their conversation felt muted to me, it seemed as though they had planned this for a long time beforehand. He pulled out a large chain and I watched in horror, It was hard being conscious and unable to do anything. Beta knelt in front of the tree, took his shirt off, put his hair up in a bun while the man started to tie the chain around him. “Wh..what are you doing?” I Managed to mutter. All my strength felt drained, I couldn’t move any part of my body. “Beta please …”The man continued to wrap the heavy chain around him and I couldn’t understand why. The man knelt in front of me and placed his hands on my chest before muttering some words. I tried to shake my head, “noo…” I cried internally, and after a minute, I felt the worst
I remained on the floor, unable to bring myself to move. “I have contacted your alpha and told him where to find us, he will be here in a minute.” The man beside me tapped my shoulder gently, “don’t think too much, it was for the best.”I couldn’t react to his words physically. I couldn’t bring myself to talk, unable to cry anymore, all that was left of my tears were uncontrollable sniffs. I stayed seated on the floor even after I heard the shuffling of sounds behind us. "Talie!" I heard my mum yell, running up behind me. I caught a whiff of Alpha's scent and in a second, he was kneeling in front of me, his arms wrapped tight around me. I couldn't react to him at all. He cupped my cheeks, trying to scan my face to see if there was any injury, “ are you hurt anywhere?""He's gone," I said and all of a sudden all the tears returned, "Riggs is gone," I began to wail again."It's okay," alpha held me tight in his arms. “Don't worry about anything just calm down.”He tried to get me t
The journey back to the pack house was the most quiet one, I retired to my room, not bothering to interact with anyone.I laid on my side, sniffing and crying as I thought about the way he died.About an hour passed when a knock came on my door.I sniffed, slowly sitting up and wiping my face with the back of my hands."Yes?"Alpha walked in. He was in a black hooded tank top, and black shorts. "You haven't changed out of your clothes?" He asked, pocketing his hands.I only stared at him sniffing.He came to sit in front of me, and wrapped his arms around me, "my love, it's okay." He rested my head on his shoulder, patting my back, that didn't comfort me, instead it made me sob even harder."How do I get over this?""It's hard, but we need to honor him, that's the most memorable thing anyone has done, so you don't have to hold yourself back, cry as much as you need to, it's going to be fine."I managed to nod in response.He pulled me away gently, "you need to get some sleep, you've b
I stared at him in shock, I hadn’t been expecting him to mark me. Traumatized by how the first mating went, I expected for a sharp pain to overwhelm me but this time Nala was hereby and ready to accept the mating. I felt the instant connection between our wolves, and for a brief moment I wanted to swear that I could actually feel myself being lifted and out of the environment. It felt as though everyone around us had vanished and only the images of our wolves were present. I could feel the instant connection to the pack being a Luna wolf. “That’s it,” alpha announced, pulling me back to reality, “you can all head back to your places until there’s further announcements to be made.”“Yes alpha,” the pack members chorused in response. Without waiting for them to leave, alpha held my face, pulling me closer to him and taking my lips in the softest kiss. I closed my eyes, receiving his lips and putting my arms around him. He pulled away, still cupping mg face and said in a low voice,
"What on earth do you think you're doing?" I raised my eyebrows at her."You took my place !"Her hold on my neck was getting tighter but for some reason, I couldn't bring myself to feel any tension. "Why do you mean your place? I am his fated mate," to be honest I had forgotten all about her presence by now. "Kaden and I are supposed to be together and he rejected me to make you his luna even after what we did when we were younger!" Tears filled her eyes, her puffy eyes and I vluld tell sne had been crying a lot before now."So go tell that to him, why are you coming to me?" I tried to pull her hand away to no avail.I felt a sudden anger surge through my veins, and strength from nowhere, I grabbed her hand tighter and pulled it away from ny neck, "I won't warn you a second time, leave my room right this instant, you don't want me to call alpha.""Isn't that what you always do?" She was wailing in my face, "crying for help like a helpless child." I pulled her hair causing her yo l
The next morning, my mum and Shayla were upon my room ready to help me with packing. Alpha said the trip was going to be two weeks long so I had no idea how much to pack."Mum, why so you look so gloomy?" I reased her."It just looks like you're going away for a long time, and it makes me realise my little girls all grown up.""I would think you'd be overjoyed, I'm literally leaving on a trip and you and your boyfriend get to be in charge, I thought that would bring you more joy than anything.""That's not true okay, im just glad you'll be with alpha." She sighed, "use protection," she added."Ew mum stop it," i rolled my eyes at her."It's fine, just make sure you take good care of yourself.""I will i promise ""You don't need another suitcase Tal," Shayla teased as i pulled out another bag."Tell me about it, she already filled two suitcases up, why are you taking another one out?" My mum raised her eyebrows at me."They are mini suitcases, you're acting like-""Talie, two suitcase
