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
ALEXANDERThe wind bristles, brushing through my locks and across my skin, though it doesn't bother me the slightest. Running my fingers through my hair, I tilt my head looking down the letters engraving his name.Taking a deep breath, I force my feet forward, force my eyes open as they focus on the lifeless ground beneath me."Hey, Adrian. Uhh...Fuck, honestly I don't know what to say to you now." I whisper into the air, picturing his piercing blue eyes which not only were identical to mine, but were also the same eyes I'd grown to hate through the years. I hated them then, because each time I look into those eyes my failures as an alpha haunted me in my sleep. Scratch that, not only my humiliating failures as an alpha, but also as a son, a brother. I gnash my teeth as my heart sinks, my head lowering for the first time for my brother's sake. I move down, I wipe away the remnants of dirt that gathered round the stone, letting a sigh fall from my lips as I stared at his name engraved w
ELEANOR “What do you think of this?” Laura gently nudges my arm, showing me the digital photo of a long, poppy red evening dress covered in shiny crimson sequins from top to bottom. I smile awkwardly, unable to bring myself to tell her that every dress she’s found so far was either way too revealing or simply too much. “Well, it’s a mating ceremony. It doesn’t have to be so…grand,” I tell her, and she stares at me in disbelief before letting out a sigh. “It’s precisely because it’s a mating ceremony that everything must look grand! If not, you are allowing yourself to miss out on your own event!” Laura huffs, her eyes squinting at the sight of me and my distaste for grand things. The exasperated look on her face brings out a giggle from my lips as I watch her continue scrolling through the dozens of dresses in the most successful clothing companies worldwide, making me wonder… “Then why don’t you come up with a design of your own? I’d be glad if it’s a dress you designed that I’d
ALEXANDERI've been pacing around these halls for nearly an entire fucking hour. After Ellie's water broke when she was fucking washing the dishes, like I fucking told her not to do, I was lucky to have Elijah and Vera there watching over her in case something happened. He'd linked me up and told me right away what had happened. I was in a meeting then, discussing pack negotiations, alliances, and rogue sightings type of shit. I didn't expect my pup to come at the only day I was forced to attend one of these meetings. Other alphas were becoming upset at my decreasing appearances. If Elijah had not convinced me she'd be safe with him and Vera this morning, I wouldn't have left. And I fucking wished I hadn't. Then I wouldn't have arrived late and had to get Elijah to take my place, and Vera wouldn't fucking let Elijah go anywhere by himself. Those two are inseparable.I felt something touch my shoulder and I whipped around ready to tell whoever this fucker is to leave me the heck alone
