"Henry... Henry," Liam called out to him. Henry who was already waking towards the gate of the pack halted in response to the voice of Liam he heard. He turned but still on a spot to notice Liam. "I heard you are looking for me," Liam said. Henry muted but pressed on with his gaze on Liam. Henry walked suddenly and hurriedly towards Liam. Liam knew Henry was furious and might receive a punch from him if he should wait and let Henry got a hold of him. Liam immediately made some movement, walking with his back and still facing Henry as Henry walked towards him. Liam did not notice the tree that was behind him as his back was turned against it. He hit his back against causing him to make a loud grunt. Henry caught up with him in no time and grabbed him by his shoulder. He held him firmly. "Where have you been,... and don't you try to lie to me," Henry yelled at him. His voice caught the attention of other guards and a few members of the pack. Some of them stood to look at Henry and Liam
Henry's POVOnce upon a time, I wasn't like this. I was the smiling type, loved by everyone I knew. I lived with a pack not too far away from here. It was accross the riverside. I've got friends, bunches of them. We had always gone out together in search for supplies and get back to the pack with lots of them. I don't know who my parents were. I was nurtured by a man who claimed to have known my parents. I asked him about them and he said to me. "You were six months old when you lost your parents. We were all travellers. We lived so very far in the mountains. It was no different from a desert, the only difference was that, there was a stream of water flowing. It doesn't get dry... Your Father was our leader, not an Alpha but he was respected by everyone,... When you were born, he decided we move away from where we were since we were all adults and you were the only new born in our midst... it might be difficult for you to live amongst us without no friends of your age... we agreed an
Liam was mute but pressed on his glare on Henry while Henry wore a smile with his sight directed on the ground. He felt sorry for everything he had to experience. He could now see the reason why Henry was the way he was, the reason he had trust issues. Liam folded his lips and dared himself to tap Henry on his back. Henry chuckled and turned his head to face Liam. On normal days, Liam does not have the courage to touch Henry nor question him about anything which made Henry pondered how it was possible for him to have done everything he did. Henry on the other hand could not hurl back at him nor challenge him. He smiled at Liam. It was the first time he was going to do that. "That looks good on you," Liam whispered, silently.Stefan contemplated about Liam's attitude towards him. Though no one, not even Stefan had really asked him about where he came from or what really happened that he was in that condition when he founded him but yet he speculated about Liam's behavior. It seemed li
"Where have you been to," Stefan asked, his back turned against Liam and his hands folded behind his lower back. Liam responded with a grunt followed by a grumbling sound. Liam bowed his head as he was trying to avoid, making an eye contact with Stefan. Henry had pressurized him to go see Stefan as he was already summoned by him. He assured him of no problem if he could explain to Stefan the same thing he said to him. For Henry to become emotional all because of Liam's words then Stefan should feel the same. Stefan would understand as he was not always an angry wolf.Liam could hear Stefan chuckled. He knew he was infuriated by his silence. "Where have you been to," Stefan asked a second time but this time around, his voice was loud enough to be heard accross the Royal residence as it echoed, vibrating with a resonance sound. Liam swallowed his own spit. His eyes were closed, his head still bowed. He knew he had to say something to defend himself somehow if he does not want to face t
"Hey... wait up," Liam said with a loud tone as he referred to the guard which Stefan had sent to summon Cara as her presence was required by the Alpha of the pack. Liam hurried as he jogged along the narrow path of the Royal residence to meet up with the guard. He was about getting to Cara's door when Liam stopped him. The guard halted and turned to notice the one who had called him. The guard slightly bowed his head before Liam when he noticed it was him. He had done that being that Liam was also part of the Royal family of Stefan. There are some authority entitled to him. "You can go back to your post," Liam said to him. "I'll take her to meet Stefan since I'm the one giving the surprise," He added and spoke with authority when he noticed the guard was about to debate with him. The guard grunted and drifted into silent but pressed on with his glare on Liam. Liam stared back at him and soon questioned him why he would stare and never took off his eyes. The guard looked away and tur
Liam and Cara stopped when they were almost close to the gate of the pack. Liam glanced around the pack. Almost all the members of the pack were gathered around. "What's going on," Cara asked with a silent tone and referring to Liam. Liam shook his head as he also had no idea what was happening. Cara looked up and sighted Alice who was also standing only a few stride away from Stefan while Henry stood so very close to Stefan."I was summoned for a different course... why this," Cara asked and turned to notice Liam. Liam looked away as he could not give Cara an answer."Where's the horse," She questioned. Liam took a glance at the gate. He at first thought that he horse wasn't there but soon remembered that the horse was outside the gate as he did not bring along with him since it was a surprise but yet he was absorbed in his thought about the crowd that gathered around. Who might have summoned them, could it be Stefan. He turned to look at Cara and made a gesture with his eyes as he
Silent filled the entire pack square as everyone stopped clapping when the gate of the pack was opened. Cara took a step forward as her eyes caught the horse that Liam spoke of. It was truly Roy's horse. She was lost in thought. She remembered the first time she would get on the horse and rode on it. It was at the very time she became a Luna to Alpha Roy. She could imagine herself wailing, how excited she was as she rode around the pack, back and forth. She rode until she got to the nearest stream, closet to the pack. She fed the horse with water and with a apple she plucked from a tree after having shifted to her wolf and jumped up so high to get it. The horse would always loved to rub her head against Cara. And Cara would play with her like she was her friend.It was like a dream come true. Now, it was as if she could see Roy because that day, he got on the horse with her and they rode for a while, gisting and chitchatting with themselves. She gulped down a sob as she could not br
Cara gulped and swallowed her own spit. She fidgeted constantly on a spot. Her lips were folded such that they rested on each other. She made a firm fist with her hands and fixated her sight on Liam who was still on the ground while Liam pressed on with his gaze on her. His mouth was slightly opened. He could not believe what happened, how Cara saved him. Though, She should not have done that but she did after all. Cara slowly took off her eyes from Liam and raised it slowly. She wanted to see if any other member of the pack have their eyes on her.Silent filled the entire pack. A low tone uttered by someone could be heard from a far distance. She soon took a glance on Stefan and could see that Stefan eyes were fixated on her. She sighted Henry and it was the same result. She immediately turned her head and acted like she didn't see them. She hurried away from her spot to help Liam on his feet. She got to where Liam was and pull out her hands to reach out for his. Liam looked at her a
