AVENA

On the way out, Marco and I had a little chit-chat. It was just him asking me about my life the past few years, how the other pack had been and if I remembered my memory. It was nice that I was talking to him and he was just as fun as the little I could remember from back then.

We turned around the corner and then reached the large grassy field, which was just beside the schoolyard, away from the parking lot, to see that a huge deep box had been positioned at one end of it, filled with sand. The box looked a bit spacious like it could contain at least fifteen people in it. And I wondered why it was here. I guessed everyone was thinking the same thing because they started to murmur amongst themselves.

“Why is there so much sand in there?” I said and Sera mumbled something.

Just then, I noticed Isaac’s presence and spun around. I locked eyes with him immediately and his eyes were glaring directly at me. I could also feel the annoyance and slight jealousy through our bond. And I

  • Crescent Claw High: Her Fated Mate    Twenty two

    AVENAAfter the announcement, a random lot was drawn to determine which two teams would compete against whom and as if fate really wanted to see both Isaac and Marco fight, the two packs were competing against each other. I saw a devious smirk spread on Isaac’s lips and felt a little prick of uneasiness embarrass me. I only hoped he wasn’t up to anything mischievous.We stood in a straight line to determine our order to play. Strength and gender were irrelevant now because it didn’t matter whether or not the person you were up against was male or female or stronger or weaker. You just had to fight them. Some said it was cruel, to me, I didn't really mind.My eyes went to my partner and it was a girl from another class. She was a head taller than I was and a little more muscular. She had her brown hair pulled back in a bun and her arms folded, scanning the area and assembling students. She seemed to have noticed me staring at her and then turned to meet my gaze. Her dark eyebrows shot

  • Crescent Claw High: Her Fated Mate    Twenty three

    AVENAI dashed into the sand immediately. I just had to dodge her and be as fast as I could. As long as I was fast on my feet, I’d have the advantage and me being smaller in weight than her seemed to give me another advantage. The sand was heavy on my legs than I expected but I tried to keep my feet light and make me way through it as fast as possible. My heart pounded in my chest and Sage didn’t seem to be disturbed surprisingly or want to be let out how she did some times when I trained alone. This made me worry less as I didn’t have to think about her randomly spouting out and ending the game for me even before it started. Instead it gave me a little space in my brain to notice the dry dusty air that was settling in my throat busily. As I ran and gazed forward, the only thing in my central vision being the rolled up scroll, I knew I had to get it and most especially, get it fast. I was almost there, arms stretched out forward and my fingertips almost halfway on the scroll that I

    AVENAThe shifters rolled their eyes at me and sneered. "Why do you think we'd let you come with us to the coming of age ceremony?" The brown short haired girl asked with the most expressive scowl plastering her face. "We're not tainting our reputation by associating with a Nyxian blood."I knew they would say that. Everyone did.Being a Nyxian blood had caused me more harm than good ever since I was born. There was a whole list of disadvantages that came with it. Like why everyone hated me and treated me like an outcast was only to name one of them. "Why bother going when you won't even find your mate huh? You think anyone's going to want you?" The blondie and their little group princess asked. They all laughed. I felt my wolf, Sage growl. Kill them. She said and I shook my head at her, trying my best to control her and thankfully she listened. Was there anytime Sage wasn't getting ready to snap at someone?One of the girls fixed the blondie's hair and dress, "Let's get going. Yo

    ~ 19 years ago ~The wind howled, the atmosphere chilly while it's violent blast went through the trees swirling the leaves to the ground. The candles which were set up by the seer to illuminate the night, took turns in going off gently, allowing darkness take over the surrounding slowly.She had been preparing for this day all along, doing rituals, praying to the moon goddess to give her the powers and let her see what she had in store for them. The black moon was nothing to joke about and no matter whatever preparations she had done, it didn't seem like it was enough. Immediately, the last candle went off and the wind stopped for a brief moment, everywhere became calmer and just like that, the vision came. There were two babies crying in their loudest voices, who had just been birthed during the black moon, a girl and a boy who had an invisible string that had joined their fate together and linked them together forever. And just like that, the vision left. Nothing else. No other i

    AVENAWe loaded up the truck and my mind didn't stop dancing around in thoughts. It seemed so unbelievable. After so many long years, we were going back. Half of my memory from there was lost especially from the week when I'd lost my parents. But it didn't stop the thoughts. I was going back to where I used to live in, where I lost my parents, where everything started to go wrong. I didn't have anyone to say goodbye to and once aunt said her goodbyes, we were off. Few hours later, after driving past what looked like endless hills and trees, we arrived at where seemed to be the territory. A little signboard was hung by the side of the road and it read, "UNITED PACK COALITION". As we went further, we saw some shifters, seven of them from my counting - both males and females. They were alert, three of them held guns, two of them held clip boards while the rest watched keenly. I was sure some others were hiding in places we couldn't see and they were careful to not be scented. The ones

    AVENA We stopped briefly for lunch before going to the Silvermoon territory as I learnt from Uncle Gray few minutes ago. Soon we were there. And once the scouts at the territory saw him, they let us in without questions.The Silvermoon territory was large, had lots of beautiful lakes, huge trees and beautiful flowers. Their cabins were beautifully made and richly styled giving the whole place a wealthy look. We arrived at the Alpha palace and the car came to a halt. We all got out and uncle Gray turned to me. "How well can you control your wolf?" He asked. "Mona tells me you're trying your best."I was confused by why he asked but I still nodded,"I'm still trying. It is not yet perfect." I replied. Uncle Gray took my hand. "The Alphas in there have misjudged our pack. No matter what happens, don't let your wolf out. Keep her under control. Those idiots in there can be disrespectful sometimes." He said sharing a look between me and aunt Mona. "I will. You don't have to worry about

    AVENA The room was dimly illuminated, the chandelier at the center supplying most of the light in the room. There was a long table with chairs where a total of eleven shifters at the Alpha pack meeting sat. Six of them sat facing each other at the table, four sitting opposite each other and two at each end of the table. Five except one, had the remaining five shifters sitting behind them and I was guessing that was their betas. This made me wonder who the last person without a beta was. The Alpha who sat at one end of the table and had maintained an expressionless face spoke first, "To what do we owe this unusual honor, Alpha Slade? You haven't attended an Alpha pack meeting in the past six years.""And he seems to have brought company," Another one with long unkempt beards uttered with a head nod in our direction. Uncle Gray stepped forward, clasping both his hands behind him, "If most of you didn't have hidden grudges and were a bit well mannered, I would have considered it." He

    AVENA"Isaac Langston," I repeated.Isaac didn't look too different now I remembered him. He used to be lanky and shorter but that was all that changed. The frown on his lips was very much still present and he was still handsome."Hmm." He said, his frown not disappearing. His response said he wasn't impressed by me remembering him and it made me unsure of what to say next.I bit at my lower lip hesitating before continuing, "Well... Uh.. It's been a while? You live here?" I asked.Sage was almost uncontrollable at this point and stirred with excitement and thrill."What have you been doing for the past ten years?" He asked shoving his hands in his pockets.I was taken back by the question, "Well I -He shook his head cutting me off. " Scratch that. I meant who asked you to come back here?""Excuse me?" I asked his rudeness sending a bad current to my stomach."We don't need drama here. Go back to wherever the f*ck you've been, Slade." With that, he shot me a final glare, turned aroun

    AVENAThe girls filled me in how they usually had pack group games each session during the beginning of the session. Two days were dedicated to each grade and they usually started with the higher grades - us.The games were crafted based on the standards and difficulties of that particular grade and helped evaluate different sections of each pack, such as skills, agility, intelligence, etc.By the end of the games, each scores were added to the pack project that was usually done later on in the semester. It was... all interesting to me per say. We never had this at my old school so it piqued my interest immediately.I was also curious to know if my shifting was still running wild and unable to control and if, perchance, finding my mate had affected it in a positive light. Or if at all, I was a bit close to even figuring out my unique abilities. "I'm pretty sure the Silvermoon and Mystic pack are going to go neck and neck this year, again, especially if there are combat games include

    ISAAC“It’s not worth three weeks suspension, Isaac Langston.” Principal Taurus said. She had her hands folded, leaning back into her seat and pouring her unwavering gaze at me through her glasses. She was stern in everything she did, that I knew. And her rigid personality showcased itself in everything in her life. From how she dressed up to how she ran the school and in the little way of how she arranged her desk, always ensuring that her desk name plate bore, ‘PRINCIPAL TAURUS’ boldly written in the fine print was sat at the edge of the finely polished desk, in the exact same line and place. Her office space itself was the same as her, a dark shade of depressing blue and a historian wall clock, over her mini library that couldn't wait to announce what hour it was at the moment with a tic-tok sound. Her only flaw had to be that her sternness and principled nature had not rubbed off on her daughter because everyone in school and the UPC if I was not mistaken, was aware that her dau

    AVENA "I mean f*ck her. She's lame, to be honest." Clay grumbled as he poured out some cereal into his plate the next morning. "You need to beat her a*s someday." "Watch your words, cuss lord." Nell scolded from beside him, her voice harbouring a sharpness in it. She gave him a look and took the cereal box from his grasp. Asher gave a low chuckle from his seat in front of me before dragging his steaming cup of coffee to his mouth and taking a sip. "What?! She's eighteen now. She knows these things." Clay retorted, his voice raising in defence and gaining an eye roll from Nell. He shook his head sighing, before going to the fridge to get a new milk carton for his cereal. I was seated by the table for breakfast, dressed in a fitted yellow pastel-coloured flowery patterned top and some loose baby blue jeans with casual sneakers. My hair was in a slick back ponytail which I had had Nell and Aunt Mona design with baby blue hair pins. My cherry-flavoured lip gloss was laid beside

    AVENA"What's he going to do when he gets there?" I asked Nell as we trudged towards the carNell shook her head, her lips pressed in a thin worried line for a brief second, "One thing about Alpha Gray is he's unpredictable to a fault. Even he wouldn't know what he'd do there."That was quite surprising. Back when we had arrived and had gone to the Silvermoon pack to the Alpha's meeting, I had pictured Uncle Gray to be like the kind of man who was calculated from how he talked to us and who didn't go head in first hoping for future actions to lead the way. But It wasn't as if I had known Uncle Gray all my life.. I mean, I didn't grow up with him, so there was nothing I could say I indeed knew about him. But hearing Nell describe him like this now made me kind of fear him a bit.I looked to see Isaac's Jaws locked. His gaze was fixed on the ground now, focusing like there was some kind of mystery he was seeing that we couldn't see. I knew he obviously had a lot going on in his head. A

    AVENAThe run in the woods was refreshing and I could feel both me and Sage feeling better. I didn't know how long I'd been running but I knew since the sun was already setting, it had been a while. I came to a halt under one of the trees the setting sun had cast its orange glow on and plopped down under the tree like a sack of stones. I thought to myself how I needed to do this frequently as the familiar sensation of me shifting back to human form hit me. I enjoyed the cold evening breeze on my naked body as I hurdled up, dragging my knees to myself and letting out a huge force of air from my mouth. Thankfully, Sage was behaving at the moment which had made it easy for me to shift back. The feeling was peaceful and it made me feel warm and quiet inside for once. The sound of the birds chirping loudly was soothing, and I closed my eyes, enjoying their little song. Just immediately, I heard rustling in front of me and as I opened my eyes, a bunch of clothes were thrown into my face

    AVENA It felt like the world had slipped away, and it was us two, just like in my memory. Isaac's lips were soft, moving possessively on mine as he poured in feelings he had been holding back into it. I didn't expect it to be like this. It was not like I had ever imagined him kissing me, either. Well..that was a lie. I had actually. The same day he had kissed, Linda was the same day I had imagined what it'd be like and how long it would take before it happened. But I was wrong. Here we were already. My heart pounded in my chest as Sage purred in excitement, urging me to deepen the kiss, to move my fingers around him and to grind my body against his toned one. I didn't even know I was capable of such thoughts until now and I had to say that the mate effect was more powerful than I imagined. Just as I inched further giving in, he broke the kiss.I was disappointed. I opened my eyes when his lips pulled away to see Linda strut away from where she was with the Ridger twins. Most peopl
