The alpha’s voice was already the one pronounced, not sure I wanted to show my face. He shouted and was screaming at someone as if to tear them to pieces. I could hear commotion the more I walked through until I broke from the crowd. A distance was left between the king, the alpha, the doctor and the crowd. I slowly walked on, seeing the bed where I was sure the dying alpha’s son was fighting for his life. On the floor was blood, so much blood with some having silver, some black. I heard the constant coughing with more blood dripping from the bed. It was a horrifying sight but I was out and had to move further.Alpha Rivers jumped from the king’s grip seeing his distraction. He ran for the doctor who was crying himself. The doctor was a whole grown man, crying tears. He had scratches here and there showing that the alpha had been pouring as much anger as he could out on him.He scratched and dug his extended claws in the doctor who did not even scream. The doctor just mumbled it in wi
I was getting trapped in my body way more than I would like. Just swerving away to a point where I did not even panic, I just lay there until my eyes flickered open to the ceiling staring back at me. Everything came hard on me, pouring and all I could think about was all the time I was losing. It was not the time to drift away, it was not the time to waste away because it seemed our world was burning.My eyes narrowed with me frowning.The ceiling was white yet seemed unfamiliar. The whole room seemed too large to be my room. Was I in the king’s bedroom? The excitement was too much, thinking of the way he had held me then in that moment, I felt it. A very warm hand was holding so firmly to mine. It was a man’s hand. I could tell with how big and firm it was.I nearly died of excitement but took deep breaths.Wait.Sparks?It hit. The man was definitely not the king. Was it Brum? The excitement shot up again. I missed him, I had not seen him since he walked off to war. I did not care
We reached our floor and that was when the king lay me down gentle. Okay, he did not lay me down but just set me down. My feet kissed the floor, my socks protecting me from the cold as I straightened up, slowly letting go no matter how much I did not want to. My hands pulled on the sleeves of the sweater, hating for everything to be over but kind of excited and hopeful to slip in bed after a long hot bath.The king took a step back, turning and walking away just like that. It still amazed me how he just easily detached. I was still buzzing from his touch, I was still dreamy from our walk but he was on to the next thing.My body turned, my hand on the handle, my safe haven.“Would you know where my black shirt is?” The king asked suddenly, shocking me. I frowned, why would he ask me? But then, I recalled.“Uhm, Please check the laundry room. I washed the day before, ironed and folded them. I was going to take them to your room along with Brum’s the next day.” I said to him only to do a
I couldn’t rest. My mind was everywhere. I cried and cried until I stopped, tossing and turning in bed. As much as I knew Brum was alive, his near death experience had me imagine a life without him and it was so painful in such a way as if he had passed. Everything was confusing. How was it even possible? I did not know seriously and thinking about it had my head ache in such a way I could not take it. I got off the bed as soon as I saw the first light of the glorious sun hit my room. I made my bed, walking to take a shower. I had so many things to do I did not even know where to start. Since the king was back, I did not even know if I was allowed to still work in his office but at the same time I did not think I could bare being in Brum’s office. All I needed was to see him and until then my heart was sore in ways I could not state. I walked to the king’s office, knocking twice with no answer coming so I nervously opened the door, peeked in my head, finding it empty. A breath was l
The first thing I did when I got back was take a shower then went over to the king’s office to continue with work. I thought he would still be at the Rivers pack which was why I just opened the door without knocking, waltzing in only to gasp as my eyes lay on him. I froze where I was, no turning back, realizing what I had done.His eyes which had been reading through something rose up to me, eyebrows furrowed at the person who had a liver to just waltz into his office as if they owned it.“Sorry my king, I don’t know where my head was at.” I quickly said, not sure if to continue in or walk away but I favored the latter. I took a step back, ready to dash from there.“Come in.” The king said with me nodding my head yet so nervous I thought I would faint. The door was closed behind me and I walked quick to pull the chair facing his and sat down. I was sure he knew I was there in the morning and had sat in his chair. What had I been thinking? I mentally scolded myself.When settled, my ey
“Uhm, okay.” I said to her, slipping from the bed but stood instantly because the girl was not barging and she had this excited look to her which just kind of set me off. No offense to her, she just found me at a bad time. My eyes stared at her intently and it looked like she would squeal seriously. “Sorry Luna, can I please help you get ready. Everyone there is well dressed. I used to help my Luna.” She said with me taking in her words. The Luna that just so brutally died and she was that happy? I bit my lip, well, we grieved differently. And Conri had been asking for his shirt. When has Conri ever worn a shirt? I guess it was very serious. Good thing the girl had talked because I would have gone as I was with my leggings. “Thank you, I would appreciate that.” I said with her smiling even brighter. I turned, making my way to my closet and she was right after me, her eyes taking everything in. A slight smile fought to settle on my face. I knew I would like her, just that it had be
I stood for so long I even started seeing them in two’s. I just couldn’t, I just couldn’t process seeing them there. What did Conri want with them? Why were they there?My chest closed in and for my own well-being I moved, slipping on the chair which was pushed back in as soon as I sat.“Thank you your highness.” I said as a way of pulling my eyes from the two people sitting right next to me. Damn it, damn Conri and damn that Girl.My eyes stared anywhere but the two people we were in the room with. The king sat down, the tension in the room hitting the roof. I was at least happy the girl had forced me to dress up. Imagine my utter horror if I had walked in with my leggings and t-shirt.No one ate, no one moved.I found them there, I had to greet them but hell. I was a Luna and they were guests so I had to be civil. My head turned, staring at two people I thought I would never see in my life. They lived far far away and I never dreamed of a day where they would be there, in my pack.“
I cried until I stopped, my body just the only thing that shook as I lay there. My head was pounding, everything was pounding along with my eyes. My nose blocked to unblock only to block again. My body shivered, something not even my arms to tame. I rolled on the bed, bringing the covers over my body with me hiccupping now and again. I let myself drift away with all my senses falling numb. I let myself drown in my head where nothing but darkness waited. I would wake up and have the whole pack and werewolf species on my shoulders, the same betrayer expecting me to go over and above to protect his people while he stabbed me at the back. The anger rose, the night going with the different emotions hitting one after another. The covers were brought higher, fresh tears burning my eyes because I felt so hurt and so betrayed by so many people I had just wanted nothing else but love from, nothing else but just care from. I would have done anything for all of them, I would have loved them with
