MAEVEI gradually managed to regain my composure. I felt my flustered cheeks returning to a normal temperature. Once I was confident that my face no longer had a comparable colour to Red Skull from Captain America, I decided to take a seat on the sofa. I idly watched Bain pack some clothes into a suitcase. "So, Alpha Bain" I started. "I've already told you to call me Maddox." He interrupted. "I'm sorry, Maddox." I tried his name out."In all honesty, it just feels a little odd. You know, calling you 'Maddox'. Your whole persona screams authoritative. Which makes it difficult, not to refer to you as an Alpha." I reasoned. He listened to my explanation, whilst continuing to pack and shrugged his heavy shoulders nonchalantly. "I don't know what to suggest to you Maeve. But it would make me feel uncomfortable, to have you refer to me as Alpha. You're my mate, my equal." He finished. "Maybe you could somehow make yourself seem less authoritative around me? Less threatening somehow?"
MAEVEI knew we were fast approaching the Sabre Pack. The short drive made me realise how close I'd been to my pack the entire time. I had felt so alone, and isolated whilst in Alpha Carson's estate. Unbeknownst to me how close my pack had been. I suppose that's the tactic of a captor. To make you feel helpless. It had seemed as though I was a million miles away from any known familiarity, when it actual fact. I was but a stones throw away.As much as I yearned to go home I was slightly disheartened that my alone time with Maddox was coming to an end. I felt so at ease in his company, even just to silently sit next to him was so soothing to my soul. I decided to make the most of the short time we had left and get to know him a little better. I anticipated that things would get pretty hectic once we arrived, we may not get another moment alone for a while. "So, what's your favourite colour?" I asked. I immediately thought about how random this question was, but I had to start somewh
MAEVE"You know, you didn't have to be so mean to him." I mumbled, as we drove down the long road leading to the pack's main town. It was approximately 10 miles, from the guarded gate to the actual pack. It helped to ensure the humans didn't accidentally come across our town. "To who?" Maddox asked in return. "Luke..." I said with a tone of bewilderment. "You know, the guard we were talking to literally 60 seconds ago." I summed up."Oh." Was all he replied."I wasn't being rude Little Fox. I just can't be as pleasant and open with everyone as I can with you." He concluded, with a subtle shrug to his shoulders."Why not?" I asked genuinely. "My father was and our pack is still standing?" I queried.Maddox gave an awkward sigh. I could tell he was thinking of how to say whatever it was he was trying to get at, without being offensive."Yes I know Maeve. Your father did a brilliant job, I respected him as a fellow Alpha. However, there is a reason why my pack is the largest and most c
MADDOXI laid there and watched my mate sleep. I dared not move in case I woke her. I'm surprised it took her as long as it did to break down. I had known it was coming, no one could have gone through what she had the last few days and not have cracked. I was beginning to understand why the Moon Goddess had paired me with her. Her undeniable reliance and strength, outshone my own. She would be the perfect Luna for the White Claw pack, and probably far more than what I deserved in a mate. I was pulled from my trail of thought by the faint sound of her whimpering. Her petite form began to toss and turn beneath my arm. I used my free hand to gently stroke her cheek as I repeatedly cooed a reassuring "shhhh". Maybe she was having a nightmare. I wondered what could be plaguing her dreams.Once I was sure she was in a deep sleep I lifted myself ever so slightly from the pillows, in order to allow myself to take a deep intake through my nose. I was taking note of all the scents around me,
MAEVEI frantically looked around the room trying to find Maddox. I could hear someone running up the stairs, what if it was Alpha Carson, what if they'd come back for me and taken Maddox away? I couldn't bare to lose him as well as my parents."MADDOX!" I screamed, praying he was still here. The door burst open and I jumped up from my bed onto the floor. If they were going to try and take me again, at least I'd be able to put up a fight. I crouched down into a pounce, ready to shift at any moment. Maddox rushed into the room, visibly shaken. His eyes scanned across the bed and then landed on me. "MAEVE! WHAT IS IT, WHATS WRONG?" His eyes continued to to dart around the room trying to find the hidden danger. My shoulders slumped in relief when I saw him. 'It was just a dream Maeve, you're safe.' Freyja confirmed in my mind.I ran over to Maddox and jumped into his arms with my legs wrapped around his waist. I planted frenzied kisses all over his face and the rested my nose into his
MAEVE"If you're finished stroking your massive ego, I'd like to get the meeting underway." I retorted, rolling my eyes dramatically.He gave me a playful wink and placed a delicate kiss on my forehead. "Very well then Little Alpha. Do you know how to mindlink the Beta of this pack?" Maddox asked. I wasn't actually sure if I could mindlink anyone within the pack. You're only able to mindlink once you have your Wolf, and due to obvious circumstances, I'd been a little pre occupied with the various unfortunate events that had happened between then and now. My mother had always told me that mindlinking came pretty naturally once your Wolf was present. So I was willing to give it a try. "Tell him I've requested a meeting with the council." Maddox interrupted my trail of thought."Why you?" I questioned. "Why can't I just tell him I want the meeting?" "Because only Alpha's can request meetings with the council, currently you're not an Alpha, Little Fox. So unless you want to unveil yo
MAEVEWe walked hand in hand, through the hallway of the estate. My eyes wondered over the off white walls, and the pictures that hung there. So much had changed in such a short space of time that it was difficult to process, I hadn't had time to think, to understand or to grieve. One picture in particular caught my attention. It was a picture of my mother and I standing in the clearing. The same clearing where my life had been turned upside down, less than a week before now. The memory surrounding the picture was so vivid. My papa had taken the picture. Mother joking about how this one was definitely going on the wall, how she was always the one behind the camera, catching the memories, she was so happy that she finally got to be in one of the pictures that we could one day look back on and cherish. I was only 10 at the time, and the bluebells were yet to blossom, the field was bare and the air still crisp from the not long past winter. I was so obsessed with one day finding my wo
The world as we know it will come to an end,War will divide family, mate and friend.The white wolf reincarnate will repair or destroy all that is left,Driven by a love that will be oppressed or confessed.Beware of the Alpha with greed in his heart,If he succeeds the bond will remain unmarked.Yin & Yang must come together as one,To become the leaders and salvation of old and young.Beware of the Alpha with greed in his heart,If he succeeds the war will be lost before it starts.When day and night are torn apart,The Moon Goddess will be held in disregard.Beware of the Alpha who tries to deceive and leave his mark,Beware of the Alpha with greed in his heart.

MAEVEI gave my best witty glare in Alpha Bain's direction. I lifted my hand and slapped his shoulder playfully. He clearly thought he was quite the comedian!He winced and took a sharp inhale. My face dropped as I realised I'd slapped his bad shoulder. "Oh my Goddess! I am so sorry!" I offered apologetically. He controlled his expression quickly."It's fine, don't worry about it." He responded."Shall we go and meet this Beta Stimpson of yours?" He continued. Alpha Bain, Luca and I walked out of the tent. I was in such a haze when Bain had first brought me here, that I hadn't had a chance to look around before being carried into his tent. I took in my surroundings and was astounded by the amount of tents that had been erected. The number of people here was astonishing! The whole pack must have joined to help. Even the women and children. I felt numerous eyes on me from members of the White Claw pack as we followed Luca to the location of Beta Stimpson and the women. I could here
MAEVE"I kissed him" I wailed. I felt his comforting hand on my back stop it's movements. To say that I was feeling like the shittiest werewolf in existence, would be an understatement. Alpha Bain and his pack had been risking their lives for days on end, whilst I was swanning around Theo's estate playing the deluded dream of a love sick pup. I heard him let out a deep controlled breath. I didn't have much experience with my own wolf, but I knew from other pack members within the Sabre pack that he was trying to control his wolf. I slowly removed my head from my hands, to look up at my mates beautiful blurred face between my tears. He had stood upright and was pinching the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger. "You kissed who Maeve?" He questioned.I could see how much it pained him to string that sentence together. He continued to take deep breaths, not yet daring himself to look at me. I panicked. What if he hated me? Could I blame him. I had shared a passionate
