I stopped a few miles away from Landor's dead territory.Using my super night vision, I looked as far as I could towards Landor's land. I could see a few men and women walking around the opening of the territory, looking from side to side and then towards the direction we were hidden at, as the road was right next to us."There're waiting for something." Silver commented through the wildly opened mind link between the six of us and I nodded my head.A few minutes ago, after an hour of our arrival to our hiding spot, Kalvin had mind linked me and told me that three trucks were granted passage through our western boarder and that they were headed our way.The entire time I was hiding behind the trees, waiting for his signal, I was internally praying that my informant would be wrong and that there was no one from my pack, my people, who would betray me like that.But as soon as he'd mind linked me to inform me that there truly was someone who let Haden's trucks pass through my lands, an
Mina Wolf...I stood by the corner, watching the shifters standing around the front room, looking at the dead warriors laying in the bed.The silence was so heavy that it was starting to weigh in my shoulders. Their pain and grief was pressing at me, bringing tears to my eyes.They were all still but I could feel the chaos in them, threatening to swallow them whole.Beta Silver still stood beside me, holding the bag over his head so the other warrior could get the glucose that he needed.When Kalven had dragged the two warriors in to the pack hospital, he'd knocked the glucose stand over and the top had broken. So, Monika had asked me to hold the bag up because there was no time to fix the stand.When Kalven had brought the two warriors, one of them were practically dead. He was barely breathing and his heart was barely pumping. So, Monika had performed CPR on him and she was able to being his back. He was the one I was holding a bag over my head. His upper body was covere
Raphael Stars...I slammed the door shut after I stepped in to my study and rushed over to my desk.I walked around the desk and dropped myself on my leather seat before I reached for the bottom drawer and pulled it open.Reaching in, I grabbed the phone and dialed the only number I know. I didn't care what time it was, I needed to have a little chat with my informant.I pressed the phone to my left ear and heard it ring three times before he finally picked up."Why are you calling me at this hour?" He mumbled, his tired voice barely audible through the phone."Do you want to tell me why the fuck there were actual shifters in those trucks?" I roared.The other side of the phone went silent and for a few seconds, all I could hear was shuffling noises."What are you talking about?" He whispered."The containers that were being transported to Landor's territory, why did it have shifter in them?" I asked again."No." I heard him mumble. "There... There were only animals. No shifter
Mina Wolf...I was in a deep sleep, dreaming about chaos and blood. Or... at least I thought I was in a deep sleep.But from the distance, I could hear wails and sobs crawling up the tiny window at the top corner of my cell, poisoning my dream with pain.After Beta Silver had told me that there would be a send off ceremony for the warrior that died tonight, I was left shivering and scared.I didn't know why their death caused me this much confusion and confliction.They're my enemies, every last one of them living in this pack and calling Raphael their Alpha. They attacked my pack, took me from my home, rained rocks on me on the first day and had made sure that I find no peace amongst them.Yet... thier death caused me pain.After I'd fought against my dinner, I tried to sleep. But all I could see was bloody images of the dead people of this pack.I saw little Diana. I saw the dead warrior from earlier tonight. I saw faceless people bathed in blood. And most confusingly,
I stood under the warm water with my head tilted back.I kept my eyes closed as I heard the door open and Beatrice walked in to leave me a clean dress and take the one I wore the previous day.I don't really know for how long I've been under the spray of warm water. My body was here, feeling the warmth of the water wash away the previous day. But my mind was elsewhere, showing me the few minutes I'd been in the presence of Raphael in his half shifted form.Since he left me last night, all of my thoughts have been about him. The fact that he came to me like Beta Silver had when he was about to go completely feral was unbelievable.The fact that he tore through the bars as if they were nothing just to get to me was also unbelievable.When Beatrice came to get me breakfast this morning, the gasp she'd let out had echoed through the dungeons. Her eyes had grown twice their usual size when she saw the damage made to the bars.She'd rushed to my cell and unlocked the door before she steppe
I looked at Beta Silver, wondering if I should go and talk to him.He walked further in to the woods before he stopped infront of a log, the same log I had see him sit on as he drank his morning drink, and sat down.Before I could decide what to do, Megan pushed past me and walked out through the back door.I stayed by the door as I watched her slowly and hesitantly walk in to the woods and approached Beta Silver.I could feel her nerves radiating out of her in waves as she got closer and closer to him.I wondered if Beta Silver ever felt that affection Megan has for him.Once she was next to him, she tapped his shoulder and said something. I, obviously couldn't hear what she was saying but I could tell that whatever reply he gave her wasn't what she had expected.I watched as she tucked her hair behind her left ear and said something but once again, I could tell how unhappy she was.As she was trying to talk to him, Beta Silver hadn't moved once, not even to turn his head to the side
Raphael Stars…I tried my best. I know that I have been saying this more often, but I really did try my best.I tried mu best to stay away from her. My little green flower.I tried to stop thinking about her. I tried to burry myself in work, I tried to over workout and when that didn't work, I tried going for a long run.But no matter what I did or what I tried to think about, my mind would constantly return to her.The way she'd looked at me with curiosity, the way she tried to help pop my dislocated shoulder back in its place, the way her fingers brushed through the strands of my hair, the way her cheeks flushed as she looked at my wolf's ears...Each expression that passed across her face and each movement of her body was burned in to my brain, constantly popping up the entire day as I tried to work.What I had actually thought was the entire day turned out to be just a few hours in the morning.But my goal to avoid thinking about her had came crumbling down when my inform
Mina Wolf...I stared at Raphael, my heart thundering in my chest.He looked down at me through the bars, slowly stepping closer to the door.He looked a bit hesitant as he reached for the key he'd tied on a string and wore around his neck.But after he took it off of his neck, he didn't hesitate to push the key in to the key hole and turn the lock before he pushed the door open.The silence was broken by the squeal of the door and his footsteps as he stepped in to my cell.The thought of what he wanted to say or do made my mind run a million miles per hour. I'd spent the day thinking about him and now, here he stood in front of me, not in his half shifted form as he was the previous night, but in his human form, all Six foot something glory and his handsome features magnified under the soft glow of the moon that stretched from the tiny window.No matter how much I tried to predict his move, I did not expect him to step closer to me and lower himself in my bed, sitting with his
