Dear Readers, kindly gift my book GEMS. Thank you!
BAELAThe chirping of birds could be heard from the trees overheard as I made my way through the woods. It was just past dawn and the morning dew could still be seen resting on the grasses on the ground. The cool breeze was sweet to perceive as it touched my delicate skin, soothing it. It was in sharp contrast with how rough my skin had been handled the night before and I had a scar on my arm to show for it.My scar reminded me of him, of Alpha Abbadon. As we set off on our journey through the great woods of Gaiasania, this scar reminded me that this was not a leisure trip of the great woods of Gaiasania, Alpha Abbadon had done this to me and we were on our way to the ends of the world. I looked straight ahead at him as he walked in front of the rest of the pack majestically. He ordered the Beta's who were with him to bring some more gifts for his new bride - gold, silver and precious stones. They were carried in a special backpack by one of the Beta's that accompanied us, it was to
BAELAI laid in a tent made by Alpha Abbadon himself in the woods. It was the Alpha's tent but as his slave, he had ordered me to say in it for tonight but he was not in. Inside of the tent was covered in total darkness because there were no lights lit inside. There were no lights lit outside either because the camp fire had been put out. Alpha Abbadon was out of his tent late at night because he was on guard duty. As the Alpha of the pack, he had to keep us all safe and lead us...those were his primary responsibilities. He was not alone in his guard duties, he had some Beta's by his side who accompanied him.I laid on his mat in his tent feeling cold. I had covered up properly but despite that I couldn't get warm. I thought it was sort of kind for Alpha Abbadon to let me share his tent and his mat. The harsh version of him I had known of late wouldn't really care if I slept on the dirty ground of the woods.I rolled from side to side on the mat unable to sleep. I wasn't sure if it
BAELAI stayed in the stream watching as Alpha Abbadon had his bath in the water of the stream. He was backing me now and I had my head tilted to the side as I watched. I didn't want him to know I was staring at him just in case he turned back unexpectedly towards my direction to look at me. What he said about him figuring I needed his blanket and his action of swimming away from me when I asked my question was still lingering on my mind.It felt like hope...I know I now hated him but seeing him care about me even though slightly warmed my heart towards him again. What did these all mean?I couldn't take my eyes off him as I watched him intently clean his body. His naked body was visible from his head down to his thorax. It was quite the view to be honest, watching his athletic back visible from the waters. I was in the stream but I swear I thirsted for him.I was now filled with longing for him after the spark of flames he had ignited in me. We were both alone, naked in the same str
BAELA Beta Oliver walked beside me to keep me company for the rest of the journey for the day. I felt he was an unwanted distraction for me because I didn't want his company today but as a Beta I couldn't tell him off. We were just 25 werewolves in total going to the ends of the earth and out of that number, only 3 of us were females. It was clear there was a shortage of females going for this trip and I understood I would be having a lot more company than I had anticipated. I just wished my company would be from the special one my soul craved for and not from any werewolf. Our journey so far had been relatively peaceful as we stopped close by at a small waterfall to rest. We wouldn't stay here for the night and would continue our journey shortly there after. Finally the silence rule was over temporarily. I knew this was my opportunity to speak with Alpha Abbadon. "You haven't been yourself all morning I have noticed, are you bothered about something or someone?" I heard Beta Ol
BAELAI was back in camp but in low spirits as we got ready to leave again. Beta Oliver was the first to spot me as I made my way back behind Alpha Abbadon separated by some meters. I could tell he looked worried for me and he was right to be, I wasn't feeling alright.I avoided making eye contact with Alpha Abbadon as I walked past him quietly. I regretted ever believing anything positive could happen between us after all he had done to me and was now putting me through. I walked slowly as I made my way back to my line.Beta Oliver once again was right beside me. He didn't say a word to me but his look was all telling. I could sense he believed something must have transpired between Alpha Abbadon and I when we were alone. We remained in our silent state although the silence rule wasn't yet in effect. We still had a few more minutes before we would resume back on our journey. Just for the record, werewolves didn't move in silence. We were loud and fearsome creatures that liked our p
BAELA I rolled sideways on the mat in Beta Oliver's tent like the night before. Tonight though I had an extra blanket to keep me warm and it was playing its role but I was still restless. For some unexplainable reason I couldn't sleep. I most likely would need Aria's services before midnight if I couldn't fall asleep on my own. I guess I wasn't used to the smell of Beta Oliver's tent. The smell wasn't bad, it was nice but I preferred that of Alpha Abbadon better, I have become accustomed to it in a very short while. I also wished I had my own tent but I did not. Why did I not have one? Only Alpha Abbadon could answer. I rolled one more time on the mat when I heard footsteps of someone approaching. Who could it be this late? Nobody was walking around in camp by this time of the night. "Aria, go find out who it is immediately!" I ordered. Instantly she appeared and was out of the tent to investigate who it was. I didn't have to wait long for the answer as she reappeared almost 2 se
BAELAI moved upstream, as far as I could go with my legs but there were no signs of Alpha Abbadon or any werewolf of my pack. It was as if they had disappeared into thin air and I was now tired.It will take me an hour at least to walk back the distance I had covered while running. I was breathing through my mouth to get more air into my lungs. Sweats had now formed all over my forehead and some parts of my body. The good news was that I hadn't lost my way. I had followed the stream up to this point, I just had to follow it back to my starting point. The bad news though was plentiful.Where was Alpha Abbadon and the rest of the pack? What had happened to them while I was asleep? How was I going to survive on my own out here in the wild if anything happened to them? "I need your help now more than ever Aria". I whispered to her as she flew above me."Yes Baela, what will you have me do?" She asked."I don't have Alpha Abbadon here to look out for me, so I want you to do that for me.
BAELAIt was nightfall again in the woods of Gaiasania. Almost 2 days had gone past without anything eventful happening to me. We had left the camp this morning to continue on our journey and now it was nightfall.I was still assigned to sleep in Beta Oliver's tent. So far for almost 2 days Alpha Abbadon had simply ignored me like I didn't exist. I heard him questioning the Beta's when I went missing but now I was back he didn't care so much after all.Beta Oliver for his part had tried to make amends and I had accepted his apologies. The details behind his abandoning me in camp though were still not clear. He had failed to provide me with any details so far.I laid on the mat that was in Beta Oliver's tent as I got ready to sleep. Tonight was different from other nights I spent out in the woods because I felt sleepy right away. I was probably tired from being forced to walk almost non-stop all day by Alpha Abbadon to make up for the lost time we had lost the previous day."Good night
