"I am trying to plead with your mate here to let us stay here a while longer," Elena rolled her eyes.Yeah right. “Good luck with that but we both had already come up with a conclusion.” I shrugged. Lance gave her a flat look and I smiled, at least we were on the same page. “You can’t do that to us,” Elena argued, trying to cry but failing woefully. “We don’t have a choice, you pushed our hands of judgement against you,” Lance told her. “But we–”“If you’re not out of this pack by the time I am back, I’ll make sure that your belongings are found in the woods. Trust me,” I smiled, glaring at her along with my grin. “Lance–”“I’m sorry, but she is the boss,” he raised his hands in defence, walking away from her room as I did. I had to admit, we were like badass couples. “Where are you going?” Lance asked, putting me on a halt. “Grey caused some nasty shits it’s his mate's clothes now. I have to do him a Favour by prolonging her stay in the hospital till he fixes it,” I sighed.
We were starting to notice the wintry weather and my sister and mother were gone for a good two weeks. It was the very first day in December and we were making preparations for the stockpiling of hot chocolate ingredients, board games, and winter craft supplies to avoid succumbing to that thing known as "cabin fever." I loved winter because winter offered an exciting smorgasbord of activities in the great outdoors such as sledding, skiing, snowball fighting and building snowmen. Although, I hardly took part in any of those things mentioned, personally, because winter made me shiver a lot. It was morning and it was not even snowing but the mere thought of it all made my teeth chatter. "Hayley, gosh are you alright?" Lance said, returning to me on the bed. I think he went to pee or something. "I'm cold, super cold. Check if the windows are open." They were and he went to shut them close. "It's not even snowing yet," Lance said, curling up beside me. "You are shaking like a leaf in s
"So," Petra began, moving away from where she sat. "What is wrong with him?""It's a flu and I should check you too. It's contagious, I'll prescribe some drugs to him and in a week he will be alright. Don't worry," I smiled at her. "Thank you," she sighed in relief. Even with their enclosed relationship, she cared so much about him. It was beautiful, I knew he cared too, he just needed time showing it, like Lance. "He was running a fever throughout the night," Petra added in worry. "Yes, it's part of the symptoms of the flu. I just injected him with a cure. I've written down drugs you would have to get for him at a pharmacy. The change of weather is what is affecting everyone," I shrugged. "Thank you so much Hayley, you should check on yourself too. You look tired," Petra finally noticed me. "I will be fine. I'm the doctor here, you will also be part of his medication you know. There is a definite possibility that you caught what he has and also avoid talking to people, wear a m
After a moment's rest, Talia was feeling relatively better. She had been waiting for her parents who were occupied with their pack duties and it was dawn. I went to Lance to contact her parents at once and she followed me. "Hello, yeah this is Alpha Lance," he said into the phone. They spoke for a brief while but I did not bother eavesdropping because he was still going to tell me at the end. "So what's their status?" I asked the moment Lance dropped the call."Kiddo, it's one of two things!" he said, turning to Talia. "You can stay here and pass the night or someone from my pack will take you home.""Why can't my parents just send someone themselves?" Talia asked, sounding disappointed. "Well, if you get home tonight or tomorrow you'll have to ask them about it!" Lance said, lowering himself to make eye contact with her. "You don't scare me," she said and I erupted with laughter. "What, no I wasn't trying to do that!" Lance said defensively as he rose. I watched them with a cert
“Can you fix it?” I asked Sean who had spent a few minutes staring at the broken toy. “It’s been damaged for a while now. I have a few tools back at home, that is if you’ll allow me take it home,” Sean replied, taking a glance at Alpha Jonathan as a means of permission from the man. “Why yes you can,” he shrugged and Sean smiled. I watched him closely, he would look at Talia, then look away quickly. He seemed too troubled. “Hey,” I pulled him aside so we could talk. “What’s wrong?”“Nothing,” he replied but I did not buy it. “You wanna stay here a little while longer so you can talk to her? I see you have a crush on her,” I wiggled my brows at him and I could see how his face heated up in a blush. “You would do that?” Sean asked with brighter eyes. “What about Lance?”“He will be fine,” I waved the topic off. I knew he would not be fine at all, Lance had been trying to get me to stay with him and I just brought up unnecessary excuses. “But we will only stay like an hour more,
The news shocked us all. He found his what?! "Aren't you like thirteen?" Grey asked with a raised brow. "No, I turned 16 the day before yesterday," Sean rolled his eyes. "But Talia is eleven," I deadpanned. "Exactly why she cannot know yet. I'm not going to ruin her childhood because some moon goddess fated us together," he grunted. "Hey, have some respect for your creator. Also, how sure are you that you two are mated. You might just be mistaken," Lance frowned. It made sense, there were stories of werewolves mistaking infatuation for mates and they never ended well.“I suspected you all would assume that, because you think I’m still a child,” Sean sounded disappointed. I felt sorry for him.Shaking his head, he walked right past us. I wanted to call after him but I stopped myself, knowing fully well that I still had to deal with Lance. He looked down at me, “Good night Grey.” Lance walked away. That was my own cue to follow him and try hard to make him less upset with me. I
“Dude it’s time to wake up!” Lance yelled. I grumbled when I heard him shout into my ear. “Did you just call me dude?” I frowned, shuffling around the bed before sitting up and resting on the wooden frame of the bed. “Yes, what do you want to do about it?” Lance raised a brow. “Buzz off,” I said, rubbing my eyes and yawning. “You wish,” he scoffed, then walked away into the bathroom. “What are we doing today?” I asked, audible enough for him to hear. He was taking a shower and I could see hot steam sipping from underneath the bathroom door as the shower kept pouring down. I had to have that kind of a bath too, hot and steamy. “We’re in the winter season, I am going out with some pack mates to get some goods. Winter clothes and food and some more logs of woods,” he replied. I stared blankly at the bathroom’s door, I could imagine him there already. Having a bath under the shower, his hair damp with some strands sticking to his face while he swipes them to the back. “You reall
'I'm home!' Lance shouted over the link. Just in time for dinner. 'Why are you shouting Lance?' I shouted back. 'You are also shouting,''You started it,' I argued. I could already perceive his scent, he was trying to find me. 'Aww you missed me,' I smiled. I was done cooking, but I was still clearing up the kitchen so it wouldn't become a mess. "I did," he replied. I turned on my heels to face him, he was leaning on the door frame of the kitchen, with his arms crossed as he stared at me. I looked like a mess and I knew that. I smelt like cheese and I think I got some in my hair. I was wearing an apron and I already stained it with tomato sauce. "Hey," I bit on my bottom lip when I saw him. I missed him too, I was glad he was back. He could assume his position again, I hated every bit of it. "I heard that you kept groaning when you were asked to do aloha duties," he smirked, walking into the kitchen to stand in front of me. "Yes, I don't want to have anything to do with it
