Present Time...

"Hurry up!!"

A high-pitched tone nearly squealed in aggravation, finally coming to a stop beside a large tree. Reeling her head to the rushing sound of leaves and footsteps, she sighed, spotting her best friend from a rather far distance, blundering with a large basket of herb hanging over her shoulders.

A tiny giggle erupted from her throat as she could hear the grumbling sound of her friend's demurral.

"Are you going to hurry up or not, am leaving you behind!" She yelled out, not bothering to secrete her smile while kneading her palms on her large brown trousers and a considerable cherubic shirt that was tucked into her pants while her legs were covered with a pair of worn-out raven boots.

"Well, I'm apologetic your highness, am the one carrying this bloody basket here!" A sarcastic voice retorted, lividity almost evident in her voice.

With a sigh, Gwen rested her body

    Gwen dragged her feet on the ground of the forest...It all started from the pit of her stomach as she hugged her arms around her stomach and slowly, it circulated to her heart and slowly she drowned.It felt like she had fallen into a cactus, and her heart had been punctured a million times over by tiny pins. Its sting, it throbbed, it ached at first but now it felt like she had gone numb. She wasn't bleeding but she felt like blood would come gushing out from her chest. Why did it hurt so bad?"Goddess, why is he so heavy?!" Odessa panted and sweated from behind, carrying the unconscious person over her back as they finally reached their destination, in front of a large treehouse.Gwen halted, staring up as the ray of the evening sun lit up and comfortably nestled in a small treehouse. It was a cube with a star-shaped window on the walls and a broken and rotted rope ladder suspended in midair above the branches.

    An agonizing moan left his lips as he sluggishly regained consciousness. Slowly, his eyes fluttered opened but were welcomed with a blurred sight that cleared after a few blinks and he found himself staring at the trees that blocked the ray of sunlight from penetrating through his vision. He almost thought he was dead but the soft chirping of the birds, rustling of leaves was a reminder and the awful sting on both sides of his ribs brought him back to reality.He groaned again as a sharp pain shot through him from his injuries and a heavy throb from his head. He suddenly felt his vision spinning while he believed was because of the silver he was injured with.Wanting to bring his hand up to his forehead, a light gasp vacated his lips when he realized he couldn't move, his body was incapacitated, he couldn't shift a single muscle.He shut and opened his eyes, trying not to unnerve. What had happened to him after he has passed out because

    Gwen disregarded the enthusiastic stare that permeated through her face as she changed his plaster and wrapped his wounds with a new bandage. She tried not to gleam at his intense gaze, she could vouch he hadn't looked away from her face since he woke up. She tried to ignore it but she couldn't help it when she glanced up and her breath instantly hooked as she found herself entangled in a pair of midnight blue orbs that made her heart hop a beat. She found herself enmeshed, unable to look away, sniffing his lemony and musky scene but when the other unpleasant scent reached her sense of smell, she immediately looked away realizing he could never be hers, not anymore. He already had a mate that he seemed to love more than his destined.Suddenly her mouth turned sour and her heart ached as reality hammered her to the ground. She moved away after helping him rest his back against a tree. She distanced herself."I will make you something th

    Gwen strode out from the corner that was the little kitchen with a bowl of hot-raging spaghetti. She headed towards the portable round table where Gwen and her mate crouched on the small stools. He was robust enough to climb up the ladder after the silver quit taking effect.Gwen lay the bowl down in the middle of the round table and filled their plates with food before sitting beside Odessa, wanting to stay away from her mate as far as possible."This is all we have, hope you aren't royalty" Gwen addressed without glancing at him.He peered at his mate. "You have never asked for my name and it has been days since I regained consciousness "Gwen sough. "what's the point anyway, you will leave as soon as you heal properly, we will reject each other and we will never meet again""Rejection kills our wolves"In outrage, Gwen slammed her plate on the table and her fierce eyes met his. "If you cared, you would have never mated with another. Did you ever think of me before you dug your fang

    "Gwen?" Odessa dubbed as she ambled around the little treehouse. She sniffed deeply, discovering she couldn't snag her friend's strawberry fragrance anyway. She shrugged.Then, her blue eyes went to the little furniture that stood in the middle of the space, her tongue running over her plump lips at the appetizing sight of roasted meat set on a bowl. Her mouth moistened as the aromatic scent broke through her sense of smell. Before she could help it, she rushed over to the little stool beside the table and sat herself down, leaning close as she sniffed in the aroma, this was so good.Odessa nodded, already cutting a piece off the meat but just when she was about to bring it to her mouth, her hand was clasped, and rapidly her head snapped up to be confronted with a pair of midnight blue orbs that somehow reminded her of a starless night. "What?" she snarled, yanking her hand out from his rather powerful grasp. Where did he come from? Earlier, Odessa was conclusive she didn't detect an

    "Take off your shirt"Gwen urged, striding towards Emil who was on the little stool, his mouth gaping, a haughty thought going on in his head as he smirked and popped his elbow on the little table. "Why, you haven't seen enough of my body yet?"Gwen gave him a bizarre look before smacking him at the back of his."Ouch!""You idiot, take off your shirt, I need to check your wound. What in the name of the goddess is going on through that head of yours. It's probably filled with nothing appropriate" Gwen huffed and crossed her hands over her chest, managing to hold back the smile that threatened to spread across her lips as she watched a cute pout sported on his face before he slowly slipped off his shirt over his head and Gwen couldn't help the blush that stained his cheeks, her hazel eyes staring down at his well-build stomach and the abs that followed, she cleared her throat, tearing her gaze from the v line that ran straight into his pants."Stay still," She instructed, leaning down

    (FLASHBACK)Ten years old Gwen placed down the little stiff bucket of water in the front of the portable cabin she inhabited with her grandma and sisters.The little girl with crimson hair and unalloyed hazel eyes placed her hands on her hips, a vast grin sporting her face as she peered down at her accomplishment. She couldn't wait to tell her Grandma she has fetched water from the well and brought it back home without slipping any of it. She clapped her little hands happily, slightly ricocheting on her feet. Grandma would be so proud.With thoughts in mind, she ran to the back of the cabin, thrilled to tell her grandma but the little girl stopped dead in her tracks when she heard the wailing voice of her best friend, being pacified by their grandma Ola.Curiously, Gwen hid behind the edge of the hut and couldn't help but listen in on their dialogue."But she's your friend, Odessa" -Grandma Ola.Little Odessa wiped her tears-drenched face with the back of her palm.

    Sitting by the tree house, he loitered for the two she-wolves that saved his life. Odessa showed up first, Emil scurried to his feet, approaching the she-wolf halfway. "Odessa, where's Gwen, she went after you earlier," Odessa pushed up an eyebrow. "When did I become Gwen's keeper?" Emil equally raised an eyebrow, caught off guard by the she-wolf's change of demeanor and her peeved tone of voice. "Do we have a problem, Odessa?" He couldn't help but implore. Had he done something without being cognizant? Odessa took a step forward, her blue eyes twinkling with an anonymous spark. "We might have one if you don't mind your fucking business!" She snarled. Again, the male was caught off guard as he tilted his head confusedly. "Have I done anything improper to warrant this treatment?" "I don't like you, Emil, that's my problem," She aired bluntly. Emil nearly flinched at the acidity of her voice, "Why?" Odessa scoffed. "I don't want you for Gwen, you are nothing but a bad omen, you

    Odessa let out a content sigh as she looked down at the dazzling pack on a high cliff. A smile graced her lips at how tiny it was from up here. It had been years yet it felt like days. Days since she and Gwen lost their first home, days since they started a new journey in Black Fur Pack, days since everything fell apart and they fell crumbled as well. Quilt? Odessa had learned to live with it because she knew it would never go away. It would always be there, lingering in her heart, reminding her of the mistake she made that cost the life of her best friend and the man she loved. Odessa had learned to live with that burden.Now she could only think back with a sad smile and wished she could turn back time but what was done was done and there was nothing she or anyone could do about it.

    Yarkona ran with all her might but she didn't go far as a wolf abruptly obstructed her path on the pack training ground. With a flip of her hand, the wolf soar across the field. "Filthy wolves!" She spat and galloped toward the forest but again, she hung back on her feet as Reuben and Evelyn came out from the woods."You have nowhere to run to witch!" Evelyn feud with a smirk as she cracked her knuckles.Yarkona jeered, lifting her palm that had a ball of shady energy. "I can take you out with ease,""Not on our watch!"Dashingly, Yarkona veered and there they were, Seth, Gwen, Ruel, Onyx, and their men, and lastly, Yarkona's eyes leveled on Raphael, the unrewarded child she raised. If it hadn't been her, he would have succumbed alongside his mother. Yarkona's eyes solidified and darkness enclosed her. They were all ungrateful and now, she would show them, suddenly, Yarkona was bored of running. Why not finish this once and for all? If she was going down, she would bring them with her

    Odessa knew she'd be free of this monster inside of her soon, as well as the shackles around her wrist and ankle, and she knew she'd see her kid soon. It was only a matter of time, but she had no idea it would be this soon.Odessa cocked her head, peering at the kid who had just entered the little hut where she had been living for as long as she could remember. She slowly rose from the bed, and the chains made a loud noise on the floor. She noted the boy's familiar green eyes, how they boiled with tears, how his shoulders stiffened and his hands balled in tight fists.Odessa stood a foot away and didn't realize when the name slipped past her lips. "Raphael,"Raphael sobbed and wrapped his arms around Odessa, who remained still, trying to determine whether this was real or one of her numerous fantasies."Mom," Raphael sobbed on her shoulder.Odessa recovered from her fright and reached out to embrace her son. Her child! Odessa found herself wanting to scream with joy. Her kid was alive

    "So, what do we have here?" Alpha Gallon grinned as he entered the dungeons, his gaze fixed on the victims. "It looks like your Alpha has abandoned you to your fate," he sneered. "You know it's so pleasant to watch you people like this, and soon, your alpha would join you or you'd join him in your graves," he grinned, then his gaze fell on Eloise and he looked in admiration. "So gorgeous like your mother," he said, stooping down to her level. He got ahead of himself and didn't realize the death daggers he was receiving as he reached out to touch her, but his wrist was snatched and he was hurled across the cell.Reuben surged to his feet, nearing the idiot Alpha who had deigned to touch his little sister in his presence, but before he could get any closer, he felt hands holding him back to find Alpha Gallon's men, he shook them off as if they were ants, but they were soon back on him, combating him to the floor."Get the hell away from him!"

    Two days letter, Raphael found himself back in the vaults, opening the cell his mate was kept in and trudging inside with a tray of food. Instantly, their heads jerked up to meet his, especially his mate who looked like she had seen an apparition.Raphael took his chances to get closer as he noticed Reuben was fast asleep. He squatted and hoisted the tray towards her."What are you doing??" Evelyn snarled and her aghast gaze swerved into a glare. "Aren't you hungry, you haven't eaten in a while," Raphael's tone came out meekly as he set his eyes only on his mate. It was like there was no one there except her.Evelyn sneered. "I rather starved to death than accept anything from you!"Hurt flashed in Raphael's eyes. "Why?"Evelyn gaped. Of all the idiots in the world, she was paired with the dumbest one! "You've got to be kidding me. Are you fucking blind, look what you freaking did to us and my home, you nearly killed my brother! go away now while Reuben is asleep!"Raphael looked ove

    Onyx couldn't believe she was back in these shady and shitty dungeons. She couldn't believe she was back in the place she detested the most.Sitting there on the reformatory floor, Onyx held Daniel to her chest, making sure he was rehabilitating properly, Evelyn was clutching her arm and her head lounged on her mom's shoulder while Reuben sat at the corner, ogling at the floor with a vacuum gaze and Onyx didn't blame the boy. It was their fault for letting their guard down when they knew Yarkona was still out there and would strike anything.And just when Onyx thought it couldn't get any worst, the cell suddenly opened and Everleigh and Eloise were hurled inside.Eloise trotted to her brother's side while Everleigh came to her Mother and siblings.Onyx peered in apprehension. "What are you girls doing here? I thought I told you not to return, where is everyone else?!""We couldn't leave knowing you guys are here, we sent everyone to the hideout and returned," Everleigh retorted, reach

    The loud hammering on Onyx's bedroom door made her scream. She rolled onto her back and nearly dismissed it, but the loud, terrified overflowing voices jolted him out of bed and he went to answer the door, only to discover Eloise with terror in her eyes."What's the matter, Eloise?" She seemed perplexed."WE ARE ATTACKED!" The girl wailed in terror, and Onyx became aware of the cries, loud echoes, and rushing footfall.Shit! How could she have missed this?"Let's go!" She grabbed Eloise's wrist and they hurried through the mansion's corridor and out of the home, and Onyx abruptly froze at the smoldering sight of houses and bodies.Onyx looked up in terror. "Not this time!" She screamed. "Quick! To the pack house!" She snarled, transforming into a wolf, and Eloise immediately followed, shifting into a white fur wolf and racing after her aunt toward the pack home, where the true commotion was.When Onyx arrived at the pack home, she saw it was under attack and immediate

    "Another rogue attack, this is more critical than the last one. They are propagating in numbers," Seth sighed laying his back on his chair inside his office. He gazed up at Ruel who owned the chair at the other side of the table. "Rose Pack has always been an associate, since they are calling for assistance, we can't rescind them," Ruel indicated and Seth nodded."You are right, we can't abandon them, we should go to their pack right away,""But Dad, if you, Mom, Uncle, and Aunt Onyx are gone, who's going to look after the pack?" Reuben who has been standing at the side voiced out his thoughts.Seth grinned. "There's you,"The boy's eyes magnified for a brisk second. He cackled nervously. "But Dad, I-I-I don't think I can," being one of the future leaders, Reuben had always been pressured since the future Beta and Gamma were both 15 and hadn't even shifted yet and now, he was being given the responsibility of taking care of the pack alone.
