Mj walked to stand beside Dante and had a sudden recollection “Dante?” Mj began tentatively, “when Sam and I were in that big room, why did that kid attack me?” she started to raise her voice just slightly, “and what the hell did he mean I’m bonded but not mated he said he wanted to challenge for breeding rights, please tell me it's not what it sounds like.” Dante did not turn around but Mj could feel how tens
Mj looked unsure as Dante ushered her out of the room. “Come on kitten” he chuckled, “although I love you in my shirt, you definitely need your own things” Mj agreed and they walked together down the hall, she brushed up against his arm and he put it around her shoulder, she shrugged it off and he slid it to the middle of her back she started to turn and protest when all the sudden she felt Theron tense inside her, she looked to the right and noticed a few young boys making lewd gestures at her.
“LOU'' Mj screamed as she pointed at Azreal and the entire room jumped as her voice echoed through the room. Everyone laughed and she apologized again “Im sorry, I guess I'm processing information kinda slow”, Mj said laughing a little embarrassed. Tanner popped up next to Azreal like a weird shorter body double “Its ok doll,” Tanner chirped “it's just the wolf settling in to your body, its like puberty all over again” Mj rolled her eyes and groaned playfully, “puberty had been horrible for her the first time around” she thought, “now at almost 30 she was gonna do it all over again except this time she was sharing her body with an alien.” Mj felt Theron groan in her head at the thought.
Mj was walking as fast as she could out of the room to catch up with the others when Dante grabbed her by the arm and spun her around. “Dammit kitten will you wait!” he snapped at her impatiently, she jerked away from him and started to run, “I said dont touch me!” she yelled behind her. Dante ran after her yelling “Stop Mj, now!” she only laughed through her frustration and ran faster. Mj reached a door and reached out to open it, when Tanner did it for her she dove between his legs and rolled back to her feet. Mj spun around and realized she was outside with the rest of the hunters and for the first time she looked at her surroundings.
Mj was so upset she didn't even notice that she leaped off the top of the car, landed on the pavement and started walking “Wait up M” Sam shouted and Mj waved at her “Its cool girl, Dante’s been here before” Mj spat sarcastically “I'm sure he knows how to get there, plus I wanna try something,” and without warning she leapt into the air about 12 feet and grabbed the bottom of a balcony. Mj laughed and sw
Mj opened her eyes and instantly knew she was dreaming, she was back on the moon with its familiar deep blue grass and lavender sky, “Theron?” Mj hollered out, but there was no answer so she started to walk a little. She walked along a small stream until it emptied into a pool and Mj couldn't believe her eyes, the water almost sparkled. She bent down and touched it and for some reason she felt the overwhelming need to strip and dive in. A low throaty laugh cut her train of thought short “You may do as you please here little one, however I do not think it is fair for me to see your beauty before the boy” Mj turned around to see Theron in Dante form looking at he
“He could have just let you die you know” Ace’s words brought Mj out of her mind, they were sharper than a cold wind and Mj almost winced when he spoke.“What?” was all she could get out, and it was almost a whisper. Her stomach was in knots from crying and now she felt truly trapped and nauseous. Ace rolled his eyes and walked right up
Mj was painfully aware that before she had entered the room they were all laughing and joking and now the table was silent with only the sounds of vigorous eating and an occasional belch from Tanner or Ed. Mj grinned and decided she would be extra brave and a little mischievous “Hay superman” she stated loudly and looked slyly at Ace “I uh, I know your not real fond of me but I owe you big time for last night, so thanks” and she let out a breath of relief as to her surprise she actually felt better now.
Dante smiled at Mj and offered her his arm. She lightly slid under his elbow and clasped his forearm with both hands “lead the way prince charming” Mj chirped as he led her out of the dining area and through another maze of hallways “Prince charming?” Dante said quizzically and almost defensively “first I’m a chupacapra Now im prince fucking charming?” he said in a sarcastic tone that made Mj laugh a little
******* I will upload Chapter 1 under Legacy of the wolf but it will be a seperate book, Legacy of the wolf: War of the Wolves******** The haunted sounds of a wolf's broken-hearted song lit up the darkness inside Dante’s mind, just like it had done every night since he left his mate asleep in their bed almost a year ago. Dante turned his head on a swivel in the obscurity, even though he knew he was still asleep. “Why do you do this to me every night, Theo! Do you enjoy torturing me?” Dante spat the words into the darkness and was only answered by the forlorn echo of a pathetic whimper as Theron’s vast body sulked into view. The normally large majestic beast now looked ragged and old, his head hung low between his shoulders and the wolf walked with such an exaggerated bow in his back that his knuckles drug the ground like lifeless attachments, “you torture us all, ignorant boy.” Dante scowl
In the months following Dante’s leaving the pack Mj learned he surrendered himself to Alpha Talia as a peace offering for the pack member Mj killed in the challenge, and that she had not only accepted his offer but had agreed to make him the Alpha after their mating bond.Mj had kept herself busy in the kitchens, pulling every shift she could to fill her days. She tried several times to pack her clothes and ask Azreal to move to a different room but she just couldn't tear herself away from the fading scent that still lingered, and as much as it broke her heart to be near him she couldn't make herself leave him the way he left her.Mj no longer sat at the Alpha’s table for meals she simply ate between kitchen shifts, the only time she saw any of the other hunters was during training and even then she would be cordial dur
Mj knew the guest house was code for a dungeon or prison but she had not expected it to actually be underground, Azreal had opened a door in the ground surrounded by bushes and guards with spot lights lining the perimeter. The hatch had led them down a stone staircase to a galley hallway that had singular cells lining it, the doors were metal with small slit windows and the entire place felt cold, as Mj reached out to touch a door Azreal grabbed her hand, “mercury and silver Mj...I wouldn't unless you wear gloves.” Mj pulled her hand back and Azreal motioned toward a room at the end of the galley, “she is behind the door on the end,” Mj took a few steps forward and Azreal touched her shoulder, causing her to turn her head to look at him. “She was part of this pack Mj, and she betrayed us all...her fate is upon you little sister, it was agreed by the pack as a whole.” Mj looked at Azreal and then be
Dante caught up to Mj quickly and although he could see the tears streaming from her face as they ran he didn't try to stop her, he could feel her desperate anger and hurt, the feeling surprised him a little because Mj had not been brought up on the stories of wolves but she still felt such an intense connection to her own ancestors she was grieving them now. After running for almost three miles Mj’s sprinting came to a slow stop and she turned around, burying her face into Dante’s chest. Mj wrapped her arms around his waist and cried silently into the hollow of Dante’s torso before she leaned back and let a blood curdling howl explode from her chest. Dante squeezed her tightly and they both looked toward the slumbering moon before releasing another cry to the listening sky above. Dante pulled Mj back into his chest and kissed the top of her head, “
**TRIGGER WARNING**Some of the events discussed in this chapter are NOT fictional and are extremely violent, reader beware Dante gingerly opened the door to his room and the crisp chirp of the first birds of the morning made it painfully clear he had been gone all night. After shutting the door he turned and his heart sank into his feet, Mj was asleep on his side of the bed with a book splayed open in one hand and his pillow clutched tightly to her chest with the other. Dante toed off his shoes and softly padded toward the bed with his prize held gingerly between his fingers, as Dante approached the bed he lifted his hand and began to stroke Mj’s face gingerly with a few white long stem lilies. The soft white curved flowers brushed across Mj’s cheek and she smiled slightly as a satisfied hum left her throat and she curled tighter Dante’s pillow, he
Briella did not need much time to corroborate the intruders story, they were also able to keep her identity a complete secret by simply blindfolding him while Dante and Lila rattled off questions they had already asked him twenty or so times and waiting for Briella to either nod her head yes that he was calm and truthful or shake it no that his thermal temperature gave away dishonesty or fear. After about half an hour of back and forth Lila began to sway on her feet and sigh with fatigue, Mj slid her hands underneath Lila’s elbows and leaned her chest into the Beta’s back. Lila hummed in appreciation as she leaned into her newest pack member to relieve some of the pressure on her feet, “would it be weird if I offered to be your chair.” Mj almost whispered in her ear and Lila pursed her lips as she hummed small giggles. “Normally I would say don't worry about me, bu
As Theron moved effortlessly through the trees he noticed that Mj’s body was trembling so he pulled her closer, wrapping both arms tightly around as much of her body as he could and tucking his head over his arms to warm her with his breath. The feel of the large beasts fur snaking around Mj’s body like a safety bubble had her skin alive and almost hypersensitive. The cold air was so intense it almost hurt as it blasted past her skin while they darted past trees moving toward the packhouse, Mj noticed that the pounding in her head seemed to ease as she snuggled in closer to Theron’s body and as she dug her fingers into his fur the electric feel of the skin beneath earned her a pacified grumbling pur from the enormous creature cradling her in its arms. The vibration from Theron’s satisfied purrs were causing more intensely sensitive sensations to wash over Mj and she began to almost
Mj was sleepy but she knew that danger was close, and as Theron set her on the ground she opened her eyes to a sight that drained all the color from her face. Walkers were laying dead and dismembered on the ground while the hunters advanced over their bodies like they were sandbags, Moxie had shifted and was hanging from a tree while Ace and Jay were still in human form but only barely. “You are not welcome to cause trouble during our full moon fire rouges...you will leave Quicksilver pack territory or you will be brought before the Alpha for judgment.” Mj watched Ace glance their way, “stay. Here.” Theron said to Mj before stalking closer to the still armed rouges, “You are not the only one who’s Alpha is an Original, you do not scare us and we are not rouge.” Theron growled and Mj felt the hair on her body stand on end as the wolf thrashed under her skin, she stro
Mj stood in front of the mirror for what seemed like an eternity, she had not noticed the continued bustling around her until the door opened again and a brush of cold air along with Lila’s tender touch brought her back to the room, “are you alright Mj?” Briella asked as Lila stood holding on to her elbow and looking at her like she expected an answer to a question Mj never heard. “Yea sorry...I’m just,” Briella cut her off “you are just so nervous I know...you could blot out the sun.” Lila rubbed Mj’s elbows soothingly and began to purr, “are you really that terrified of wearing a dress Mj...or is it the people?” Mj looked Lila in the eye and began to tremble, “I don't want him to see me like this,” she almost whispered and Lila squeezed her eyebrows together “who...Ace, the commander wont tease you and if he does then I will put him on bathroom clean up tonight
