Savage,
I smelled my coffee and sighed. It smelled divine especially after a long hard day. Running errands and filling paperwork to claim that piece of land.
I have gone through officials, alphas and even humans to have it under my name. It was bothersome but I can’t waltz in and just start building my pack houses.
I sipped the coffee and groaned in pleasure, all I needed now was a run in my new claimed land and mark my territory the old fashion way.
Some alphas don’t do that now but this is our instinct or to be more exact our wolf’s basic instinct. To mark our territories by peeing on it.
Yeah thinking about it out load makes it look and feel ridiculous even disgusting but this was how my father did it and his father before him.
I sipped the last drop of my coffee and signaled the bartender to bring me another cup. But the man who looked to be running the diner nodded to the girl and came to my table holding the big coffee pot.
“Are you just passing by or are you intending to stay here in Black feet longer.”
I sipped some of my hot scolding coffee before looking up at the male who asked me this invasive question.
I breathed his scent in and held it for a long moment. A male adult wolf, over twenty five and from his scent he might be an enforcer.
“Do you think that it is your business to middle in my business, wolf?”
I said calmly but let my aura and pheromones seep out. The male’s eyes narrowed and his nose flared as he smelled my scent.
“It is not meddling if you were trespassing on another’s alpha territory. I was merely asking so I would tell my alpha about your presence.”
I smirked; the enforcer has a backbone, good, so the Black Feet pack aren’t a bunch of cowards. This is good news at least they will have my back if anything happened.
“Alpha Hunter already knows about our presence, the officials had told him that we will be your new neighboring pack.”
Sawyer my beta said as I ignored the lesser wolf. This was already making me bored. I came here to this diner for one reason only and still it didn’t show.
“Then excuse my rude attitude. Please enjoy your day and your order is on the house.”
The enforcer said bowing his head a little and turned around but not before letting his pheromones out a little.
I chuckled when my beta growled at the show of aggression. If I was another alpha I would have put that male on his ass, but again this isn’t the purpose of my little visit today.
“Then it is true. That pack is so closed off and they don’t mingle with others. That warrior is already talking with his alpha even though I had told him he already knows. Are you sure that you want to do this, especially after what we had heard from the people around, he is using you, Savage.”
I hummed not saying anything to Sawyer’s question. We have been through this for a while now and still my answer was the same.
This union needs to be made, there is no other way around it specially now after seeing this. The whole diner atmosphere turned rigid and hostile.
I can count five new enforcers and a few pack members that showed themselves now. They were agitated and uneasy.
But they can’t do shit about it. Their alpha must have told them by now that it is pointless. Now I’m their new neighbor, I got the final papers from the council already.
We sat in silence for over ten minutes Sawyer was giving me those disapproving looks which in another time, I would have clawed his eyes off for.
The door of the diner dinged and my body went rigged. I knew that was her before seeing or even smelling her scent.
My wolf perked up too, he has been uninterested in anything that took place around us today and curling up in the far corner of my mind.
But now the fucker was wide awake and looking at my surroundings. I felt my sense open and spread. I could smell, feel and hear every heartbeat, scent and small voices around me.
Even though the place went silent the moment that door opened and everyone was looking at something behind my back.
‘The little demon girl is here.’
‘Do you think that this strange alpha might do something to her here, I would love to see it happen?’
‘Oh be quiet he might hear you and it would be our asses that get handed to us.’
Some people murmured and I frowned a little, she can hear them but they choose to ignore it and just spoke what is on their minds?
I focused on the small female that walked slowly but surely toward the male who was just talking to me. Her little feet were silent but they moved swiftly on the floor.
Her shoes didn’t even squeak or give any indication that there was any weight on it. It was impressive because she wasn’t small at all.
That small pink t shirt and jeans she wore didn’t hide her generous hips or full breasts. They both moved and jiggled with each step she took.
The female stopped mere inches away from the man and giggled silently. Her small hand rose to tap the taller male on his shoulder but the male turned around suddenly and hugged the female and raised her up.
She laughed loudly and the male twirled her around and then hugged her to his firm body while scent marking her cheeks and neck intimately.
I narrowed my eyes at the scene. This was strange, from the information I had gathered I knew that she has one brother and to mark a neck is considered intimate act that belongs to mates only and I’m sure as fuck that he is not her mate.
I stood up my still half full mug in my right hand and walked toward them as they chatted happily while the male was still scent marking each inch of her body he can reach.
“Hey you didn’t tell me that you are visiting today; I would have made some of your favorite lemon cakes.”
The male said as he was looking at the female fondly.
“It is ok, something came up and the alpha sent me here to the city, I need to go back soon something about important meeting but I thought to pass by to say hello and leave. Besides, you should be happy not like that.”
The female said in her small lyrical voice pouting and I swallowed a loud growl that was threatening to come out.
“Tam, you know it’s always nice to see you. This would be the highlight of my day, precious.”
The male enforcer said and this time I couldn’t stop my snarl. The woman stiffened when she felt my aura approaching her and I was able to see her body shake the moment she smelled my scent.
I crowded her between me and the enforcer and lowered my head to scent her but kept my blazing blue eyes on the male.
My wolf didn’t like how close they were to each other even though she isn’t ours but in his mind that female is already is.
I smelled her white hair and neck and growled when all I got were faint traces of lavender and something sweet. She stunk of him.
My fist clenched on the mug and it cracked between my fingers. Blood flew rabidly from the cuts and the female turned around to eye me in horror.
My nose flared at the smell of her fear and agitation but all it did was making my wolf purr. This was his favorite smell after the smell of our enemies’ blood.
The female striking lavender eyes looked at my face, body then my hand. She staggered backward and pumped into the man’s chest when she figured my status.
Her loud whimpers were pathetic and the small shudders that racked her body were so obvious that I almost rolled my eyes.
But beyond that everything about her was beautiful. From her long white hair to her stunning lavender round eyes that were framed by long white lashes.
I lowered my mouth to her ear and whispered.
“Go home, little wolf. Tell your brother that alpha Savage is on his way for our meeting and we need to finalize what we had discussed before.”
The woman swallowed harshly before nodding her head and run out of the place. I sneered in the man’s face flashing him my canines and turned around to my beta.
“She will do Sawyer. Let us go.”
Savage,“I already told you that she is yours.”I clicked a long claw on one of the chair’s armrest while looking at the agitated alpha. He has been pacing his office since I came annoyingly.“I accepted to have you and your pack close as long as you accept my offer, Savage. And this isn’t up to discussion, Take it or leave it.”I sighed and stood up to cut off the pacing alpha and grinned at him broadly.“You know I have heard some rumors. People here in the US loves to talk and it didn’t matter if they were talking about their friends or loved ones. They just do it.”He stopped and his face went white with fear as he stared at me. Then that fear I saw and smelt turned into rage.“What the fuck do you mean Savage and whatever those rumors were, they are not true.”I tsked and walked to the small window and looked outside at the scene. I loved it here. It reminded me of home back in Canada.“People say that you are not the real alpha of this pack. You are a bastard whose mother begged
Tamara,I curled over myself and shook, in anger, fear and even disgust. I wasn’t sure of my actual feelings, but they were true.Anger at my brother the alpha who sold me to that savage, the pack for watching from a far and laugh at me and myself for being weak and helpless.Fear from the future and what it will bring to me. I have heard that this alpha came from the north. He had been kicked out because of how…. Savage he was.He killed people humans and shifters a like. He slaughtered everyone that stood in front of him. The man’s reputation was so dirty and pungent that it reached us here.They said that they couldn’t control him in Canada and the council offered to replace him here in the US. It is said that he was an enforcer to the alpha king that is why they couldn’t get rid of him.And now that man wants me to be his breeder.This afternoon when my brother dragged me to his office and spread my legs open for the doctor to cheek my purity was a new downfall for me.Yes I have
Savage,I looked at the full moon and exhaled loudly. It has been two days and still my anger didn’t cool down. Even my wolf was always on the surface and would snap at anyone.My pack has been evading me ever since and I felt like a total asshole for it but I can’t help it, seeing her try to run away from me felt like betrayal.I feel nothing to that female but in my wolf’s mind she was ours and bound to us even before mating and all that shit.I tried to tell him that she was a mean to an end and she is only serving one purpose which was giving us an heir.But the fucker insisted that it didn’t matter, he owned her now and that male was trying to steal her away from us.Wolves were known for being possessive and dominant specially alpha’s but in my wolf’s case this was much more, even though I was sure he felt nothing to her. She wasn’t more than a hole to fill.The breeze picked up and I inhaled deeply sampling all the scents and smells around me. And it brought the packs noises my
Tamara,I opened my eyes or at least tried to because it was so hard after crying most of the night from fear, frustration, and pain.Yesterday…….yesterday… I closed my eyes again as I felt a sob rip out of me. Yesterday was horrible. It felt like I was raped and everyone was a witness to it and did nothing.I was mounted as if I was some animal and Savage used my body until he came and knotted me. All of that happened under the eyes of my pack and his.I curled around myself, then I hissed in pain when every inch of my body hurt. I felt like I was run over by a damn truck.And this wasn’t just because of Savage and the mating ceremony. My brother has been hitting me since he found out that I tried to run away.Even though Savage had warned him not to do it and that he wasn’t allowed to put a hand on me ever again, but Hunter, I mean Dickson, was fuming.But what did he think?! He thought that I will just bow my head and do whatever the hell he ordered me. Death would have been better
Tamara,I closed my eyes and stretched my arms on each side and breathed in the fresh air.Running has been always my favorite thing to do and riding on Lily’s back reminded me of the old happy days.When my parents were alive, and before we were introduced to my brother hunter, or Dickson as he liked to be called. He thought being called by our dad’s name would give him the respect he needed.Lily looked back at me while her tongue lolled out and I laughed wholeheartedly and leaned down to scratch behind her ear, making her purr.The female snapped her teeth at my hand playfully, then she gave me a wolfish grin before she took off, making me scream.I held tightly to her fur, screaming and laughing, forgetting everything that had happened lately and just living in the moment.But it was cut off so soon when we reached an area ahead and found the two other females waiting for us, and the same female looked down at me in disgust.“What the fuck is that? Why is she riding on your back a
Savage,“You should have waited for her to wake up and then bring her here. She is new and everything is overwhelming for her, especially after yesterday’s events. Everything really.”Sawyer said as he stood beside me and watched the almost finished pack house and I gritted my teeth as I glared at him.“If you are telling me indirectly that I was an asshole to her last night and humiliated her, then I will tell you that this was the tradition of all alphas before me. Losing almost half of my pack doesn’t mean that I will drop all the traditions that uphold our truth. I will run this damn pack the same way as my father and his father before him. This isn’t a happy mating, Sawyer. This is a political one on both sides and you know it.”I snarled at my friend, making him nod his head silently and we stood staring at what we have achieved so far. There is a lot that needed to be done.We have gone through a lot and my pack was already drained and exhausted, but we need to stand back again
Tamara,“But sir. We don’t know……we just need……..”Jeremy started to say stuttering, but Savage raised his hand up, making him shut his mouth and look down at his feet.“It is done. No one here takes a position they don’t deserve or earn. And her being my mate doesn’t change that. These are the rules and our law. End of discussion.”Savage growled at his head enforcer and I didn’t even have the power to flinch in fear. I was frozen in my place, shocked and feeling lost.I looked around me as tears fell down my face and tried to see if anyone else was going to tell him to reconsider his decree, but there was nothing.They were all just staring at me with different expressions, but I didn’t see any compassion or pity on any of their faces.Some were calculating, some were grinning, and some were excited. While I was standing in my place and stopped breathing.I looked back at savage and saw the disgusted look on his face before he gave me an ugly snarl and he stomped to the pack’s house
Tamara,“keep your arms in front of your face and when you see an opening just take it. Don’t think, just hit her. Do you understand?”Jeremy said as he stared me in the eye and I nodded my head absently as I looked around me and shuddered visibly, but I jumped in fear when I heard an angry snarl.“Stop shaking like a damn scared rabbit. We are animals, we smell fear and we strive for it. Control yourself.”The male growled at me and I stared at him with big round eyes, then I nodded my head quickly when I saw his anger focused on me.“It is time, Jer. All that you are doing here is for nothing. You can’t teach her six or five years’ worth of fighting experience.”The man that I saw with my mate a couple of times before said and I sneered at him, making him scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.“I didn’t mean to insult you, Tamara, but it is the truth. We all know that no one cared for you in your old pack, so you can’t fight. I mean, your body is already shaking before anyth
EpilogueTamara,When the god of thunder left, I dropped to my knees because my feet were shaking from stress.The day didn’t end yet and I feel like almost fainting, but I looked back at my mate and a soft smile touched my lips. He is back and alive.“Are you certain about this, mortal? The gods aren’t trustworthy. They are known for their decisive and for playing with mortals’ dreams and hopes.“it is you who have been sensing around, Tamara? You were the one who caused her all of this trauma and stress.”Savage snarled as I sat on the couch and put his legs slowly on the ground, planning to stand up and attack the fox, but I stopped him by shaking my head and made him sit back again.“And you are the stupid mortal who had brought doom upon us, but I guess what you did was lesser than what was already happening already, so the Ragnarok won’t be entirely your fault.”She said in a snarling voice and Savage frowned at me and everyone in the room and I sighed, then told him everything
Savage,I gasped as I opened my eyes and touched my heart, breathing harshly.I have never felt such pain in my life. It felt like there is fire running through my veins branding me and even though I can feel it, I can’t do anything to stop it except cough up black blood.I looked around me, feeling confused and disoriented, looking for Tamara or anyone who helped me to open my eyes again.But there was no one I was alone sleeping on a couch in my office and it was empty. I opened my mouth to call for my mate.But nothing came out except for some gurgles and coughs. I looked at my hand that was holding my chest, then touched my mouth and found nothing. There is no blood!And I blinked at it in confusion. Was I sleeping for long that they cleaned me meanwhile? But why am I in my office and not in my room on the third floor? And why am I still in my clothes from that fight?I shook my head to clear it from all the thoughts and doubts, then I walked on shaky legs to the door and opened i
Tamara,“Long time no see fox.”Zeus said in his masculine voice and I almost shivered from how deep and beautiful it was, but instead I watched the fox as she shook in anger and hatred.“I fail to see this as a happy reunion, my lord. If you are here to kill me for a second time, be certain that this time I will fight. I have nothing to lose anymore, my lord.”The fox said snarling, and the god frowned as he walked toward us, but then the entire place held their breath and suddenly they dropped to the ground, kneeling and bowing to the god.I blinked at the scene because I didn’t have the obligation to do the same and Zeus frowned at me as he continued walking toward us, but then the fox stood in front of me, blocking his way.“Ah, I see. Then she is the reason that you are here and back in the mortal world. She is your connection and the only thing that connected you to it. She is your anchor.”The god said, smiling, and I shuddered. Is this the moment when he kills me to sever this
Tamara,I stroked my mate’s matted hair and his blood crusted cheeks, then gave him one last long kiss before I turned around and stood in front of Silas.The male gritted his teeth, but when I nodded my head at him with a faint smile on my face, he hardened his features.“I don’t know how you are going to do this, but I don’t mind anything, even the pain.”I said, then closed my eyes and pushed my head back a little to give him some space to work with as I imagined myself joining my mate soon.But then I heard some racket, and a fight started startling me and I opened my eyes to find the entire room in chaos.“How could you approve of such a thing, you coward? How fucking could kill an innocent soul who carries one that didn’t see the light yet?”“They are my responsibility. I will not let you hurt either of them. The alpha asked me to take care of them and the pack as well. I won’t allow it.”“Look at you. Finally found your voices and balls and you were just watching minutes ago. Y
Tamara,“kro….nos. Savage. SAVAGEEEEE. Answer me, please. Plea….se.”I called his name shakily, and I began to wail when I saw his eyes close slowly after he throw up black blood.“HELP. SOMEBODY HELP ME, PLEASEEEEEE.”I touched his face then his chest and felt it as it rose and fell slowly and his heart beating was so slow and he kept opening and closing his mouth trying to say something but it was so hard for him.“No, stop don’t try to speak. I…I will get help.”I said through my tears and he snarled weakly then his eyes closed entirely and my sobbing and wailing rose.“What happened? Minutes ago, he was fine fighting like a damn beast.”Jeremy came running, and he crouched in front of my mate and leaned down trying to listen to his heartbeat then he looked at me frowning.“His heartbeat is so slow and he is barely breathing. We need to go back and let the healer see him. I don’t know what happened to him, but he doesn’t look like he was seriously injured.”The male said as he haul
Savage,“Are you sure about this?”Cyrus asked me when we reached our destination and I nodded my head silently, telling them that I won’t change my mind.He will be the one to search for Tamra and Aryan, not me. I will be here fighting my way through and clearing a path for him.And Silas is back in my territory guarding the pack house because we don’t know if the witch went there or if she is still here.But either way, we will surprise them. This is our only chance to have an upper hand because they don’t know that we found their hiding place.I looked behind and found Jeremy, my head enforcer, along with my warriors and some from the other packs.The alphas were gracious enough to lend me some of their strongest. Even Silas sent his daughter with me, leading half of his warriors.“Just wait for my signal and don’t engage in any fights. Try to avoid them as much as you can.”I told the alpha firmly and even though he didn’t like what I just said and it showed on his face; he nodded
Tamara,I woke up with a start when I heard the loud screams and powerful bangs.“Shh, it is ok, I’m here with you. Something is happening outside. I think they have finally found us.”Aryan said as he hugged me tightly and I stared at the closed door expectantly, but nothing happened even though the sounds and shouts continued.I stood up on shaky legs, still nursing my right kidney because the bitch had kicked my ass because of that damn fox.I leaned my ear against the thick door and tried to listen to what was happening outside, but still, it felt so far and I wasn’t sure about the identity of the people who cause all of that racket.So I began to bang on the door even though I was in so much pain and my legs couldn’t support me at all, but then Aryan joined me and he shouted at the top of his lungs, calling for help, and I copied him.The door was pushed open, and we staggered back, almost falling on our asses expecting Savage or any one of the other alphas, but it was just that
Savage,I was back from another nightly run and went straight to my office.I need to handle some things before I met with the witch today. I must be sure if things went south that my pack will be taken care of.And on the chance that my mate survived this, I wanted to secure their life after my death. I wasn’t sure if she would like to keep living here with the pack or maybe choose to live in the human world.And who would blame her? Her life has been miserable before me and my showing didn’t help and in the end, I hurt her the same as others did.I will leave Sawyer the pack’s responsibility if my mate didn’t want it and some funds to run everything. The rest will go to my mate and pup.I will then send an email to my cousins, the two of them, to inform them of everything that had happened so far and what is about to happen next.I need them to know about my mate and son and respect their choices, but they must keep an eye on them.But not interfere in any life choices of theirs, th
Tamara,It was one of those dreams, but still; you were aware of it.I was back in the woods running and laughing with Savage. We were running in our wolf's form, then human, naked and uncaring.From the beginning, I was aware that it was a dream, but still, I enjoyed it. I even pushed myself further to do everything I have never done with my mate before.We hunted together; we ate together and we even skinny dipped in the small pond together. And when the day was over, we slept in each other’s hands under the moonlight.I even told him how much I loved him and love the baby we are going to have, and he told me how much he loved me and vowed to keep me safe forever.It was so good that I even cried and I know if I woke up just right now, I will find my cheeks wet and I would be a sniffling mess.‘What a nice lie you are living here. Is this your way of escaping your reality? Just pathetic.’A snarky hateful voice said, and I went rigid and slowly Savage’s image began to shake and he v
