Salem"Rain," Madison, held me in her arms and stopped me on the porch the moment I ran from his home.She held me tightly in her arms.My hand returned her hug, holding her tighter."Deucalion sends me a message that you are here," she said in my right ear. "That he found you lying soaked in the rain by the river. Why did you run away from me last night?" asked Madison, worried.I cried hard, recollecting how angry and hurt I was that night when my memory returned to me of what the cruel alpha did to me. My body was filled with so much anger and resentment for him that I felt like I was going to explode that night. I had to vent it out.I didn't retort to Madison. My face was buried in her shoulder, which was now soaked from my tears."I was so worried when you were gone," continued Madison. "I felt like I was going to die no longer seeing you in the room. Please don't leave me again, ever. I beg you."My tears stopped instantly at her comment."Please don't," she remained to beg. "I
SalemAs much as I wanted to see the alpha being scolded and losing Madison for everything he has done to me, I didn't want to be in the same room with him. My wolf was starting to hate his scent and everything about him. I couldn't stand to look at him anymore.I walked away from Madison, and her hand held mine, not wanting me to go. I turned to look at her."Did you give her to the Grey Pack?" Madison's teeth tightened in anger as she asked the alpha.The alpha walked over to the window, and his head lowered."Did you give her to them? I want an answer now, Deucalion?!" she yelled.Of the trauma I've gone through and the amount of distress my body underwent. I couldn't stand to stay in the room anymore. I was starting to feel like I couldn't breathe.I exited immediately.I breathed heavily as I went downstairs and sat down, holding my chest, trying to stay calm. I eventually did.I tried to listen to what was going on upstairs, but I heard nothing. It was for the better. All I wante
SalemI had returned to Madison's place, and as for the she-wolf I had badly injured, she returned to the land as well with us along with her pup. Alpha Deucalion had decided to help her out until she was okay with leaving.We found out that she was a victim of the Grey Pack and the forced Luna of the Pack. The alpha had not only compelled her to be his mate even though they were not fated mates, but he also pressured her to get intimate with him, which ended her with twins, a girl and a boy who were only 7 years old. I felt sorry for her and for what I did. I was so upset with myself and feared what I almost became: angry, too angry, and merciless like the alpha."Is she going to be okay?" I sat up on the bed as Madison entered my room."She's fine," Madison retorted."And her pups?" I again asked.The frightening look in their eyes and spots of their mother's blood on their gray fur were tormenting me at what I'd done. I was not that violent of a wolf. They forced me to become who I
SalemFor two weeks, I haven't left the house, stood by the window, or gone on the porch since the day Madison carried me back to her place from the depths of the forest.She has managed to get me out of the house and to the supermarket with her. I felt weird being outside after two weeks. I clung closely to Madison, nervous and scared, looking around for anyone who wanted to harm me."You're safe; there's nothing here to worry about," Madison would say, trying to make me feel less worried.We made it to the busy area, which Madison once informed me was the main business area of the land. I paused, and my heart began to race to see the number of strange wolves walking by. A tall male walked past me, and I jumped closer to Madison."It's okay, you're here with me; everything is going to be fine," she said.I nodded as my eyes widen, frightened."Come, let us get the items I need so we can go home quickly," said Madison.I nodded, and we continued to walk.I looked around, having an unco
Salem"Rain, you got to get used to this new life. And quit eating the raw sausages!" yelled Madison.The raw sausages that were now half-eaten dropped from my mouth. I could feel their wetness as they fell to my bare feet. My eyes never left the alpha as they did, nor did his, as he held two bags of groceries in his hand.His unexpected present froze me."My sausages!" Madison ran to the pot, smelling like it had been burned.I've regained motion over my body, and I ran past the alpha running upstairs.What was he doing here? I thought as I closed the door behind me.I walked over to my window and looked out, wanting to see him leave.Within a few minutes, I heard a knock on the door."Rain," I heard Madison call.I went to open the door. In her hands, I saw grapes. I remembered seeing them in a bag the alpha was carrying."Sorry, I have burned the sausages. Eat on these two bunches of grapes until I've fried some more," said Madison as she gave me the grapes."No, I don't want them."
Salem I haven't left the room since the fight with Madison. I stayed the entire evening until the next day. The morning I got up early, feeling the need for a run. My wolf was dying too. Madison was still asleep in her room when I sneaked out and shifted into my white wolf. I covered my markings that screamed I was a member of the River Pack, a high rank, and then I ran into the forest. The Grey Pack was no more, and I had planned to run until my wolf had had enough. The surroundings weren't as brightly lit as yet. I had also awoken before the morning sun. I could find my way running through the forest without falling or hitting anything. It was a wolf thing, or was it dwelling in the depths of the forest for 18 years apart? It felt good to race through the forest alone. I felt a sense of peace; it relaxed me. The morning sunlight had finally arrived. I was panting and tired. I went to a small river and licked some water, quenching my thirst and preparing to head back to Madison
SalemI spun through another page, and I saw a picture of a female. Her hair was like mine, but longer. It was like an endless, beautiful river. She was gorgeous. I, too, had her bright blue eyes. A single finger touched the picture of her, observing her beauty."I'm sorry I had to leave you for a short moment," Madison said, returning to the living room.I stood up, frightened, and dropped the book. The book lay open on the floor, revealing the page featuring a female who resembled me.Madison looked at me as if she was surprised by the book I had. She then hurriedly came over, removing it from the floor."I'm sorry," I apologized, hoping I didn't offend her in any way, but still, I was curious about that book. It was about my kind, the River Pack."I see you've found the book; my ex-mate wrote about the River Packs while studying them before he fell in love with their Luna," Madison grumbled as she shut the book and angrily threw it back into the box.I knew it was about us. At that
SalemThe entire morning, Madison stayed in her room. I blamed myself for her sudden change of mood.I hurriedly searched through the book for more pictures of my kind, but there were only two pictures. My mom in her human form and her wolf form. The book was mostly words; sadly, words I cannot read because I am illiterate.I heard Madison's door close. I quickly threw the book back into the box and took up the small book she was using to teach me the alphabet before she could spot me with the book her ex-mate wrote about my kind.My head lifted from the picture alphabetical book as if I were looking through it as I heard her enter the living room.She smiled at me.I returned her smile."I'm sorry, I have gotten you all excited to start reading, and then my painful past will ruin things for you," she apologized."It's okay," I retorted. "Are you feeling much better now to start teaching me again?" I asked.I was very eager to learn how to read now. I needed to know more about my kind.
