I held my chest, trying to calm my beating heart. I'd been waiting at the dining table for half an hour when a shatter echoed from the other side of the mansion. Cade instructed me to stay put while he checked things out, only to return a few minutes later with an unreadable look on his face. He seemed distant, lost in the sea of his own thoughts as he stationed himself beside me. I remained quiet, unsure what to say or do while a set of footsteps resonated from the end of the hallway connecting the entrance to the dinner room. Gazing up, I spotted Alexandra calmly approaching us, curly red hair bouncing beautifully over her shoulders. Her cherry red lips lifted into a warm and welcoming smile, which I returned with a shy but thankful grin."I see you two have met!" She chirped happily, hoisting herself into her tiptoes to kiss Cade's lips. Then, wrapping her arms around his, she turned to me. "Sorry about the long wait hun, Xavier and Jace had a little..." Muffled words shouted from
I glared from my window, starring at Cade when I spotted him walking throught the backyard with that thing at his side, as both giggled and smiled like kids on a play date. I felt my Wolf purr at the sight of the Omega, but I shun him down. I hated when he admired that pathetic excuse of a Wolf. It reflected onto my feelings and made me gain a certain admiration for her, making me feel sick. Everyone acted so sweet around her, like she was some sort of miracle child. Pathetic. She was nothing more than an abomination who's life worth little to— "Jace." A slick, black reddish male walked into my room, ripped jeans and leather jacket contrasting his edgy look. I groaned, annoyed as I recognized the wolf by his snarky voice as Ryder, one of the Pack's elite Scouts and Cade's second in command. He was the kind of person that ticked me off by simply breathing the same air I did. Emo look, hot headed, always questioning orders or calling me by my name rather than my title
"And here, we have the garden." I gasped as Cade brought me to the entrance of a beautiful hedge garden, the walls filled with all kinds of colorful plants and flowers. I never knew this place had a garden! A gorgeous one at that. I walked through the first alley, grazing my hand through the lush greenery. Roses, tulips, lavenders, marguerites and many more plants I couldn't identify. But they were still incredibly beautiful. I smiled, wonder floating in my mind. All these foreign plants and flowers, they had so many different shapes and colors! And each had it's unique scent, it was amazing! For an Omega who's lived in the woods all her life, this was a real jewel to see. A pang hit my chest while my thoughts drifted to my mother. She loved flowers... and she would've loved to see this garden.
"Don't move." The voice chilled the blood in my veins and I herd someone cock and charge their gun. Slowly, I turned my head and almost bumped my snout into the barrel of a loaded shotgun, it's holder gazing down at me with menacing eyes. A sinister smile lifted his lips. "Oh Alphas' gonna love this. OVER HERE! I'VE GOT- AAARGH!!!!" A white blurr suddenly jumped from the bushes and crashed into the male, sending him to the ground with his gun flying a few feet away. The white Wolf then plunged his teeth into the male's throat, blood gushing everywhere. I held a gasp, completely terrorized by the scene. I've never seen anyone get killed before! Sure, I've seen brutal scenes in movies and I was never very comfortable with them in the first place, but seeing a real person being murdered in front of your own eyes was a completely differen
The man screamed as I leaped and ripped at his throat, ending his life within mere seconds. With a blood covered snout, I gazed up, searching for my next target.By my side, Rider teared at the throat of another Wolf, his black Wolf's amber eyes shining with a mixture of rage and something else I couldn't grasp. I scoffed and continued ahead. I jumped at another target while it held it's gun at me, arms shaking.A grin lifted my lips. This is gonna be fun. Using my Werewolf speed, I dodged his bullets easily and then pinned him down with a wolfy grin. Horror laced the guy's gaze as he starred into the eyes of death. But a jolt of pale fur jabbed into my flank and threw me off my target. While I rolled onto the ground, a voice reached me through the link.'Jace what are you doing!?' Cade snarled, eyeing me from his spot.I shook my pelt and growled. 'What do you think I'm doing!? I'm getting rid of the enemy!''Those aren't Wolves Jace! There Humans
I winced, a sharp pain ripping through my chest as I felt like my heart was being ripped in two. Kira jumped while she finished the last loop of my stitches, frowning."Oh calm down, it's just a needle. I'm almost done."I shook my head, fighting the urge to scream my lungs out. "N-No... it's not... that..." suddenly, a wave of sadness and rage invaded my body, tears rising at my eyes. "I don't know... what's happening..."Kira placed her wrinkled hand onto my head, a sad smile on her face. "Hm, you don't have a fever but your body might be in shock. If you feel any discomfort, let me know immediately."I nodded, although the weird feeling had disappeared and I no longer felt any discomfort.She finished cleaning my wound and wrapped some sterilized gauze and bandages around my waist, making sure the injury wouldn't open up. "There. That should help keep any infection away. But don't strain yourself too much or it will reopen." I stood up, tucking
My eyes were glued onto the dancing flames of the campfire. Anger still clenched at my chest while I held my father's dog tag in my hand. I still couldn't believe he was gone... My own father, murdered in cold blood by the hands of Humans... what kind of a death is that...? How could Selene bestow such an unworthy death upon him!? Did he not deserve her blessing? Igazed over to the Omega, her head slumped onto Zed's shoulder. So it seems Missy couldn't shift because she was wounded... What a joke... And she isn't the one who just lost her father nor the house she's grown every memory in. No, she had to slump and cry because of some dam injury. My fist clenched and I nearly broke my father's tag, the last thing I wanted right now. So before I could make any mistake, I hung the
I found myself surrounded by a field of flowers; the sun shone from a pale blue sky. My fingers caressed against the petals as I walked forward, my body enveloped by a sense of peace and serenity. I smiled when my Wolf's pelt reached the tip of my fingers while she walked by my side.Her brown and red pelt looked pristine as usual, sleek and soft at the touch. Warm and comforting. She stopped and gazed up at me, her amber eyes filled with a questioning look.Hold on... How did I get here, anyway? I don't remember anything either... Where was I before?My Wolf tensed and I felt the fur on her neck stand. A wave of fear invaded my body as she cowered to the ground, tail between her legs. Startled, it took a moment for me to understand something was spooking her. I followed her gaze and gasped, taking a step back at the sight.A large form stood before me, red eyes shining from its undefined form with a piercing glare. When ours eyes met, my knees flinched a
