ALEXANDER Veronyka led me towards the boundary. I'd shifted into my wolf form to get there faster, of course, but Veronyka was oddly falling behind. She'd already begun to feel restless when we were still halfway there. "Go, Elijah needs you there. I'll stay at the pack until you come back," she told me through mindlink. I grunted in response and turned around when she spoke in my head again. "Promise me something, Alex." I glanced back at her. I could tell her eyes were shot with unshed tears. "What?" "Promise me that when the two of you come back, you'll come back alive," she choked making me stare at her. My eyes softening at the sight of the woman I've always treated as a little sister, a girl who's obviously about to break down in tears, yet mature enough to bite them back. I give her a small nod. "I will," With that, I turned around and kicked my legs, running to the direction where I can hear growling and snapping of bones in each second that pass. I got there sooner tha
ALEXANDEREzekiel in his bloody wolf form, was leading a whole pack of warriors behind him. Each immediately got to work as they launched themselves at every rogue who suddenly whimpered and backed away in what smelt like fear and panic. My eyes widen a little when Ezekiel's warriors seemed too focused on the rogues' necks. Ripping their blody heads clean off as if that would stop them from healing. I couldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. Each time they ripped their heads off in one swift, clean move, the rogues dropped dead on the ground and never climbed up again.Was this some trick they managed to land on?Suddenly, Elijah yelled in my head, causing me to avert my gaze from Ezekiel who seemed too relaxed while fighting the largest rogue amongst them. When I turned around, one female wolf had just thrown herself at me in abid to attack, but I was faster. A loud growl rumbles through my chest before I equally launched myself at her, catching her off gua
BARBARA'S POVTwo weeks ago...The news of Alpha Victor's death spread like a plague amongst the omegas and ranked wolves of the pack. Everyone was either murmuring or cursing amongst themselves at the unimaginable revelation that could ever befall a pack. The death of their alpha.Without an Alpha to look up to, the pack could hardly thrive on their own, unless of course, someone else will assume the role.Eleanor was not an option because she had always been a sore eye to the pack for being the wolfless daughter of their alpha. It was her fault for being born that way, or so they thought. I could still remember how Alpha Victor grabbed my arm before dragging me into his office. He had threatened me as a child, and it was enough to mess my head up for reasons I was incapable of understanding as well. I never could have expected what would have happened had I not eavesdropped in their conversation. But then again, I was fucking eight! I didn't know what the fuck I was doing until it
ELEANORWhen I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a big oak tree. Grass pricked my ears, letting me know I'd been lying on the ground under this oak tree for goddess knows how long. Streaks of sunlight pressed against my face warmly, compelling me too move to take in my surroundings.My brows furrow instantly when I realize I wasn't in the Red Silverwood Pack territory.I was back in mine, the Blue Mountains Pack, and I don't even know how I got here, or at least remember how I got here. With my heart racing and my body jerking forward as I scramble to my feet, I whip around. Flinching when I see Marcus walking in my direction.I froze in my spot, but a few seconds later I find myself squinting at him, my father.Why does he suddenly look so much younger now? He was getting closer, compelling me to take quick steps back and prepare for a run, but as soon as I whirl around to go for it, I stumbled on my feet letting me fall on my ass."Ouch!" I yelped, but before I could get mys
ELEANOR"Hello, Eleanor.."If I was right, then this person standing in front of me now must be my..."Mother?" The word barely coming out my mouth through a whisper. My real mother.A smile covers her lips. She looks at me softly, nodding her head ever so gently like royalty at its finest.From that moment, I felt my heartbeat speed up. My hands itching to reach out and touch her in that moment, but I couldn't.She was too bright. Her body surrounded with white glowing light as she stepped out from the darkness. The scene before disappeared, and suddenly it was as if the world has erased itself from this dream."Look at you," she breathes, seemingly unable to stop her lips from reaching her ears while her eyes look me up and down. Not in a bad way, but rather in a way that you would know when someone is truly admiring you, finding themselves at awe at you presence and beauty.I plastered a smile on my face as well, mirroring just how pleased I was to finally see my real mother. Someo
ELEANORMy mother looks up at him, and I could see the pain in her eyes when she spots all his wounds. Making her gasp at the bloody sight, probably wondering how he even managed to survive the fight against every Alpha in the country. All of them seemed desperate, too obsessed at the power of the blood wolf which I'm starting to realize...must be too valuable to compel a war like that. My heart instantly constricts and my chest began to feel heavy. Marcus, after seeing me as a baby, dropped with a loud thud on the cold ground. Hitting his head first as he did. "Marcus?" My mother slowly gets up before crawling to him. She began by feeling his wrist, and checking his wounds which were getting worse by the second."No,"Taking one last look at the baby, she heaves a deep breath before closing her eyes, and...healing him.Wait, but if she does that... then she...I bring my hand over my lips, watching wide-eyed as my mother continues to heal all his wounds, and soon enough, every on
ELEANORWe were getting near the border when I noticed a weird scent laced through the air. I couldn't pinpoint what it is, but I could feel it in my bones that it was something...dangerous.My wolf growls lowly, and I urge her to glance around for a moment, halting in her tracks. She sniffs the air as I instructed her to. Trying to see if she can find anything out of the ordinary in these parts.'Found anything?' I ask, and Ares simply shook her head though she acknowledged something felt really off. My entire body was tingling, and I wasn't sure if it was from excitement, or some other feeling brought by the effects of this pregnancy.'Why did you stop?' Laura asks, walking closer to us in her small wolf form. I find myself panting heavily, as though I had drained all my energy out from running a few miles away from the packhouse.'Just tired,' I reply, hoping she would stop questioning me any further.I didn't tell her about my pregnancy, hoping I'd be able to tell Alexander first
ELEANORPretty soon, Alexander's men rounded up the rogues, keeping an eye on them in case they try to make a move. They don't, and there is no doubt from the look of betrayal and defeat in their eyes they won't risk their lives to try. Members of my pack were, in fact, pretty neutral about it. Heck, they didn't even spare a glance of pity for Sandra when they saw Alexander's warriors drag her ae rbway and force her into the car. They held no respect for her, that I was sure about. I couldn't ignore how none of them attempted to act in rescuing their new Alpha despite knowing she was being forced to step down. Weren't they concerned at all for her safety? From the looks of it, they'd rather see her step down than let her continue to be Alpha.That goes without saying, because one thing everyone in Blue Mountains Pack knows is the fact that Sandra could barely lead a pack. Let alone fulfill the duty of being a Luna. I flit my eyes between Barbara and the pack. In one split second, I no
