Rose-As I stand in the backyard, the clearing overlooking the forest line, I look around me at my family. Griselda, Mom, Dad, and Jeremy. I smile, knowing that any minute now, I would finally meet my wolf and we would all run together. This queasy feeling sinks into my stomach as the knots begin to tighten and pull inside of me. Jeremy had been holding my hand, which helped to relieve some of my nervousness, but I felt like I was going to vomit. I close my eyes only to be met with the most beautiful sight I have ever witnessed. A beautiful white wolf with green eyes standing in the back of my mind. She had a red patch on her chest and on
Jeremy-“Well, well, well. Look what we got here,” the dirty looking rogue growled. “Looks like a lost pup,” the other, smaller equally dirty rogue said. The third only snickered. The three savage wolves circled me after I had been chased for quite some time. I have been in my wolf form for about a year, I don’t know where I’m at, I have just been running and running. After Rose savagely broke my heart I returned to my pack. I packed my bags and left the house, my parents were not home, probably out for date night. I checked my brother’s room
Jeremy-I smelled them before I saw them. Sickly sweet yet they smelled like death. Their demonic laughter filled the forest as I became surrounded. They smacked their lips, “Come on doggy.” Their disturbed laughter was something to haunt dreams. The others whistled, “Come on boy.” Petro was on edge, growling at the forest. Then suddenly we were ambushed. Three skinny pale Vampires appeared before us, their eyes flashing red as they attacked. One latched onto Petro and began draining him.
Jeremy-Red Lake Pack was small, but organized. Their training routines were extraordinary and their warriors were lethal. I had been pinned so many times, I was about ready to leave with tail between my legs, but it seemed Petro had other ideas. Unlike me, he was not okay with losing and he was extremely adamant about staying and training until we were either just as good or better than the warriors there. I kept telling myself I would leave in the morning yet found myself not wanting to leave. I think part of me had grown tired of my loneliness. The Alpha, Alpha Valen, and I seemed to get along very well. He often trained with me and pus
Rose-Seven years. Seven years Jeremy had been missing. Seven years without so much as a letter to let us know he was okay. What had he been doing this whole time? Where had he been? I paced in my room back and forth. My nerves were shot. Kat was going crazy in my mind. She wanted to jump into his arms, but I held her back. Seven years. So much has happened since he left. I had become Pack Alpha, but not how I wanted.
Rose-When we arrived, my mother sat in my father’s office with Leo, going over some papers. We walked through the open door as the room grew quiet. I had never seen my mother look so broken. She did not have her usual look of annoyance when her eyes met mine, instead I saw nothing but heartbreak. “Louisa, it’s been too long,” my mother said as she nodded at my grandmother. She sighed, “Would you two please give me a moment with Roselia?” I stood awkwardly in place as I watched my mother fumble with the things on my father’s desk, aimlessly reminiscing how he used to use them as he worked on pack issues and waiting for the others to leave the roo
Jeremy-Rose had been avoiding me since I arrived. I had requested an audience with her several times with Garrison only to be told that it ‘was not necessary.’ What the fuck does that even mean? All I wanted to do is thank the stubborn Alpha for taking the boy in and allowing me to stay a while to gain back my strength and humanity. Of course Rose would deny my request. She probably never wanted to see me ever again and was annoyed that I came back. She was quick to get rid of me after having discovered I was her mate and lied to me about it. Of course, this was still speculation as I didn’t yet confirm it true.
Garrison-I watched as Rose slapped Jeremy. The storm in her eyes held a hint of sadness and yet I found myself trembling at the aura radiating off of her. He had crossed the line. Although I couldn’t really blame him, he was ignorant. He didn’t know what happened to the late Alpha. Rose had stormed off into the trails to cool down while Jeremy looked at a loss. I placed my arm around his shoulder and gave him a smack, making him wince. I forgot about his injuries and retracted my arm quickly. “Let’s go to the infirmary and talk. There are some things you need to know,” I said as I watched his gaze glued to th
Rose-After the intake of the rest of Blue Moon Pack, we commenced with the pack meeting. I wanted everyone to know what was happening and what would be happening to secure their safety. I would also give everyone options if they wanted to transfer packs. After the trauma they have been through, I would not force anyone to stay here if they truly did not want to. I wanted my pack members to be happy and healthy, in body, mind, and soul.“I know you are uncertain and scared. You are concerned of what will happen with our pack. With your future. And Jeremy and I are here to put your nerves to rest. We will take care of you. We will protect you. Together, we will get through this difficult time and together we will grow stronger, for we cannot move forward without each other. Without you. But, I do not want to keep anyone who is not or does not think they could be happy here. It is hard to cope, living with a constant reminder of what used to be. So, I am offering those who
Rose-I was finally able to leave that wretched place after a few hours of persistence. Belle was being completely unreasonable in wanting to keep me until the evening to give the stitching a few more hours to properly heal the parts of my skin that had been ripped open by Eric’s disgusting beast. I didn’t need the extra time. Kat was doing a fabulous job on her own.Damn right! Kat chimed in.As Jeremy wheeled me through the pack, much to my embarrassment, I was pleased to see that Jeremy had handled the aftermath quite well. There was little to nothing left for me to do. About half way to the pack house, Tyler met us with a clipboard in hand.“Beta, let’s have a rundown of things that still need to be settled,” I commanded.Tyler nodded, flipping through the pages and grabbing the pen from behind his ear.“Jeremy has divided the pack members between those who were willingly with Eric and those only following orders. The ones following orders have been placed on a probation and
Rose-The bright light makes my eyes water as I quickly shift my head away from it. As I bring my hand up to shield my eyes, I notice the needles and tubes sticking out of it. The sudden movement makes my head spin and I feel a wave of dizziness, making me close my eyes again. Am I in the pack clinic? Suddenly, I remember what brought me out of the unconsciousness as I peel my eyes open roughly, searching for those beautiful golden swirls.I feel something heavy around my chest as I take note of the delicious scent of rain and forest that fills the room. The incredible warmth on my back makes me smile and relax as I begin to slowly move my sore body towards my mate. His soft snores make me smile as I reach out to cup his cheek, running my fingers through his scratchy beard. Sparks erupt all over my skin and I bask in the feeling. Jeremy’s eyes blink open before he realizes it is I who caresses his handsome face. A million dollar smile lights up his face as he meets my gaze.
Jeremy-After I prosecuted every prisoner, killing the guilty ones and sending the rest for further judgement, we headed to Blue Moon. The other packs kept their word and aided us in the fight. I left some behind to guard Blood Moon while the others followed me to across the border. Upon entering, there were a group of men walking towards us.“Father,” Tyler calls from beside me, brushing passed me to run into his fathers arms.They pull from the hug, slapping each others arms roughly. Roddy stands before me, a handful of men behind them. They look rather rough, having been in hiding for so long.“Alpha Jeremy,” Roddy says, taking his knee before me, “I pledge my loyalty to you.”The other men follow suit and I stood there with pride filling my chest. I wasn’t used to this, but Petro felt like he was exactly where he was supposed to be.I grasped Roddy’s forearm, “Thank you, Roddy. Now lead me inside. Tell me what’s going on.”He walked me to the pack house, the Blue Moon warr
Jeremy-“M-mark me,” she whispers and my whole world stops.The pain in my stomach evaporated for a split second as her words floated into my ear. My vision had been blurring, but I regained enough consciousness so that I could see her clear as day. The tears streaming down her cheeks made my chest clench, but she was still the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on. I never wanted to hurt her and I feel guilty for being the one to make her cry. I didn’t want to leave her, but I could see Petro fading away within me and I knew I was nearing the end. It was getting harder to fight, harder to breathe. I could feel my body growing colder even when Rose climbed on top of me and shared her warmth. It felt so good to just close my eyes, to rest.Marking Rose brought the most euphoric sensation to my body. The sparks ignited all over my body as her scent enveloped me and I inhaled it one last time. Suddenly, a bright light filled my mind and I felt like I was floating. Panic
Garrison-Alpha Jeremy is down! Secure the bunker! Guille rings out in mind-link.No…J. Oh, shit. Rose. My heart drops and I suddenly can’t breathe. This can’t be true. A warm hand slips into mine and I jump, turning my head to meet Belle’s crystal-blue eyes.“I’m sorry,” Belle says, seeing that she frightened me.“I just heard…” she begins as tears fall from her eyes, “Oh, it’s awful, Garry.”Tears stream down her face as I wrap my hand around the back of her head and bring her into my chest. She weeps openly as I attempt to calm her down.“I-If Jeremy’s dead…Will Rose be able to defeat him?” she asks as her bottom lips tremble, her nose and cheeks flushed.“What if..What if they come after us?” she continues when I can’t find the words to say.“Baby, that’s why I’m here. And all these warriors,” I gesture to the men around me, “Alpha Rose was prepared for this.”“She-She’s such a good Alpha. I-I can’t believe this,” she stutters as she buries her face in my shirt.Blue Moon
Rose-What the fuck is happening? One minute Jeremy is close to ending this fight and the next, Eric is transforming into some..some kind of…beast! It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen before. It’s like literally…a fucking wolf-man. It’s like Eric shifted into his wolf, but it has a man’s body. It’s wolf-face is snarling viciously as a collective gasp rings out among the crowd. Jeremy is just as surprised as me as he looks frozen in shock for a split second before the beast begins swiping at him with it’s enormous claws.“This is cheating! Stop the match!” I yell as loud as I can, forcing my way in front of the line of warriors who are in defensive positions.“Rose, stay back,” Tyler says as he tries to pull me back.I yank my arm away as I enter the field, “Stop the match! This is dark magic!”The Elders begin yelling for Eric and Jeremy to stop, but the next second, Eric’s men begin attacking the warriors. All hell breaks loose as chaos erupts and everyone begins to fight. The
Tyler-Today was the day of the challenge. Things were about to change. We would finally be able to rescue the people of Blue Moon Pack and remove Eric from power. I couldn’t believe it. I was super nervous of course. My best friend would be fighting to the death and if shit hit the fan, we could possibly be facing a war. I knew Eric wouldn’t fight fair, so we had been prepping all week. Black Blood Pack was going to secure their side of the border, while Blood Moon’s warriors would be surrounding the fight. The other allie’s warriors would remain hidden, but would intervene if all hell broke loose. The Council, fortunately for us, chose the location of the fight to be between the two borders, Blood Moon and Blue Moon. Women and children would be put down in the bunkers until after the fight was over, just in case.After kissing Clara for the millionth time and securing the bunker, I headed back outside. I waved off to Garrison, who would be protecting the bunker along with
Rose-I empty the contents of my stomach for like the hundredth morning in a row. This shit was getting old real fucking quick. I brush my teeth and get ready for training. I was really impressed with Jeremy’s progress. I wasn’t lying when I told the Alphas he was more than ready. I knew he could beat Eric, I was just afraid Eric wouldn’t play fair. If he had poisoned his father without anyone’s knowledge, he had to have some kind of help. My hunch said he knew a dark witch. I was afraid that little prick would use magic to cheat.I headed to training running a bit late. I told Jeremy to leave without me because I didn’t want him hearing my cries of agony as I threw up last night’s dinner.When will you tell him? Kat purred anxiously in my mind.After his challenge. We cannot burden his mind with this kind of information right now. He needs to remain focused, I replied as she huffed in response.Jeremy was leading the training today. Him and Tyler were going head-to-head,
