As calm as I may seem on the outside, my mind is going a mile a minute, werewolves exist and not only do they exist, I'm one of them how amazingly scary is that, that aside it also means that I truly don't belong to my family, I know they tried their best to bring me up along with my sisters and brother but I always stood out even though I was the youngest and I know my brother resented me some for that, so I did my best to stay out of his way and his circle of friends and females I realized he was interested in but then I noticed that some how all the girls I became interested in somehow ended up on his radar and then they'd all break up with me after coming in contact with him and him telling them how much of a weirdo and a freak I am.
I stopped trying to date after more than a few attempts, I suppose that was his way of boosting his ego, at the fact that he can make girls break up with me, I drive for a total of Seven and a half hours before finally turning onto the road that leads back to Gaisha, after another Forty-Five minutes I pull up to Zacs' house first, it's naturally quite easy for me to get him into his house, I use his phone to make a video recording saying bye to him Una and Joe, and explaining vaguely that I found a place that I'm meant to be and it's best for them to stay here with their families and thanking them for being brave enough to journey with me and promising them I'd pay them a visit from time to time and expressing how much I love them all. After sending the video to Una and Joe I drop them both off at their homes, I drive by my house and stop, I stare at the house engulfed in darkness as everyone is still asleep, I think to myself, perhaps it's not a bad idea to rest for a few hours before heading back, I reverse and pull into the back of the house and park as to not make it obvious and then make my way up to my room, as soon as I see my bed the weight of all my traveling comes down on me but I could never drop onto my bed without showering first, once done with that I put on a track pants and vest then plop onto my bed and I'm out in an instant. I'm in a place, like a plain surrounded by wolves, my goodness they're all so massive but they do not harm me, I walk over to where they are and as I go they move away from me, the wolves all basically clear a path for me and I'm faced with a big dark brown wolf, his eyes are grey and he's watching me intently as I approach him, he sniffs the air and slowly moves to me, I reach my hand out to him and he sniffs it then nuzzles, the other wolves stampede away and he knicks me on my hand then licks it before running after them and a voice crashes into my mind ' see you soon human '. I'm jolted awake covered in sweat and sit up on my bed, I look out and realize it's fully day out, I over slept, I check the time and it's almost Noon " f**k " I hustle out of bed, shower and brush my teeth, I get dressed and grab a duffle bag and stuff some clothes, shoes, underwear in there, I was about to head back out the window when there's a knock at my door and the door is pushed open when my mom comes into the room. " We looked for you and your friends for Three days Beau, you show up here at ungodly hours and then expect to disappear again without a word, do you have any idea how worried I was about you, have you nothing to say to your mother? " I sigh and look back her " how did you know I was here mom " " I'm your mother Beau, you think I won't hear and know of your comings and goings through your window, talk to me what's going on with you, where have you been and where are you going? " " Mom, can I ask you something and trust you to be honest with me " " of course honey " " how did you manage to get me to raise me and do you know who my birth parents are " she looked at me long and hard and her eyes filled up with tears " so you know, for sure now, that we're not your parents but sweetheart you'd always be my baby " she looked away then back at me this time with her tears falling " there was a woman, I have no idea who she was, your father and I had been trying for another baby, we where just coming back from a trip to the big city to get some equipment’s your dad needed when she ran out onto the road from the forest, she was covered in blood and insisted she didn't need help but begged us to take you, she looked scared especially when we heard wolves in the forest, we told her to come with us to safety because the wolves probably could smell her blood and was following the scent but she refused, she pushed you into my arms and told us to leave and keep you safe, she shouted at us to leave then turned and ran back into the forest, your father tried looking for her but we never found her, we heard wolves snarling at a distance in the forest and ran back to the car and brought you with us Beau, we never meant to keep it from you or to lie to you but we saw you as only our son and we did try to make you feel like you belonged here with us, and I'm sorry if I failed you as a mother but please, don't run away, we can talk about it "" thank you for telling me the truth mom, finally and I have never resented you, I know how much you and dad love me, even more so than your own son and I love you too so very much and I thank you for doing what you did and taking such great care of me but unfortunately I can no longer stay here but it would always, always be my home mama " I pulled her into a hug and she sobbed into my chest and hugged me back " I love you Beau, with my whole heart, never you forget that and your room will always be right here for you " " thanks mom " * knock knock * " there's a red head downstairs says she came to meet him and take him back to their college " my older brother stares at me and points like I'm nothing more than a nuisance in his eyes, which I probably am, I stand and look out the window and Red is there, she looks up at me as though she can see me looking at her, I smile and turn to head down " let's go mom, I'd like you to meet my friend " she washes her face and dolls herself up in
I just blurted everything out in one go and hope for the best now I suppose. I look up at him after not hearing any movements or response from him, his chin is resting on his palm as he stares hard at me not blinking, "Alpha?" " I see, so you've befriended a witch who taught you interesting things, and where pray tell have you met this witch Ro and for how long have you known her and where does she live?" he asks these questions with a lethal and eerie low voice." I've known her for about Two years give or take, I met her by chance not too far outside our border when I was out for a run, well walk I guess and uhm, she lives in a cottage but I promised her I'd keep her home safe, please please please don't make me break my promise, I give you my word she's not dangerous to us, she really is the sweetest " " you seem to be throwing your words around quite a lot within the past couple hours, very well Ro, I will give your witch the benefit of the doubt"I breathe a sigh of relief " than
I sniffle and nod at him, we get back into the car and drive back to his house, this time with a comfortable silence, before we got out the car and touch his hand and simply say " thank you, I love it very much " " you're welcome honey, don't mention it" I nod and get out of the car, I rush to my room and grab a quick shower, change my clothes and head out the door.I began walking to the packhouse to meet Ivo so he could drop me to a point and then find my way the rest of the way when my dad slowed down by me " get in, I'd drop you " I hop in and we head out through the pack gates and down towards the high way " Ro, I hope you don't mind but I'd rather keep the fact that I bought the house for you from Nika and the kids okay? " " you didn't have to tell me that dad, I know, the last thing I want is to cause any trouble for you, I had no intention of saying anything to anyone " we continue the drive to a point and I ask him to pull over, I take a whiff and we continue on up until I c
I give a quick bow because it felt right and scurried after her " you know Red, if you don't want me in your house I'd be more than happy to tell Alpha I'd stay here " " oh be quiet and drive " we drove to what I would call the outskirts and pulled up to a house, I must say for the kind of person and the way she carries herself this is not what I expected her house to look like." Stop judging my home, and let's go in " I grabbed my bags and followed her onto the porch, she was about to turn the lock when she sighed and hung her head, she signalled for me to stand to the side and pushed the door open and stepped out of the way and out sprang this big guy while Two other voices inside shouted " SURPRISE!! " " Red, did you really have to dodge me like that? " " look at your big a** and look at me guy, you tryna crack my head on the porch or something? " " I'd never let you get hurt Red you know that " she smiled then glanced at me and it's as though everyone was just noticing me for the
" Alrighty Red, your kitchen is once again clean " " thank you, so Beau, time is really counting down for you so I'd give you a quick run down and the guys would fill in anything I miss out okay? " " okay " I sit opposite her, giving her my full attention." Right okay, so as you now know we're Werewolves, as regular wolves we live in packs and we have an Alpha, the Alpha's wife is called his mate and mates are predestined by our Moon God and Goddess, they are basically the other half of our souls or our soulmates, you'd be able to scent your mate after you come of age and shift, if you are ever disloyal to your mate he or she would feel a stabbing pain in their chest and vice versa if your mate is disloyal to you, when you touch you'd feel what we call sparks, she would be the only person you would feel that with and your world would rotate around her once you meet her, Alpha mates are called Lunas' our Alpha is Teejan Woods and his mate is Beatrice Woods so they'd be called Alpha Te
Alpha Woods( On a phone call )" I'm telling you Trevor, it has to be him, he's the spitting image of you and Maddie, I'm 90 percent sure he's your son Trent, and the time line matches, tomorrow is his Eighteenth birthday so please try to be here for his first shift, he was raised with humans without any knowledge of our kind so you'd have much to teach him and I'm sure he'd have questions as to where you've been all his life "" No, I don't think I'm wrong Tre, not this time, no Red, and her team mates happened upon them close to our border, he was scared and running away from his human family because people called him a freak for being different, his friends ran away with him, he's returned them home and everything already, please be here "" Okay, see you soon brother "There's no way I could be wrong about this, Beau, his resemblance is too uncanny to not be my nephew, my younger brother Trevor has been looking for his pup so Eighteen long years, he's supposed to be my Beta but b
I chuckle and grab my bag with my clothes, I close my bedroom door and follow her out, we use the jeep and drive back into the centre of the pack where the packhouse is located.When we get out of the jeep the Alpha, Luna and kids are there on the front porch but there is a strange vibe about them “ is everything okay Alpha? ” “ well, we are about to find out Roro” “ okay, shall I stay out here sir or return home?” “ of course not Roro, none of this would have been possible without you honey, Beau please both of you come in and please keep an open mind okay”I silently walk up to them and follow them in the Alpha kids seem to be looking at me with less hostility than before, well I guess having dinner with me paid off then.I walk into the common area and I freeze, there’s a man there he’s an exact replica of me but older, or perhaps I should say, I’m an exact replica of him, I sniff the air and I know right away, this man, this man is my father. Before I say a word he spoke “ I spent
I pick up the sound of footsteps and turn around growling ready to fight " calm down son, it's us, it's me your dad" I growl more aggressively while covering Red with my body, what the hell is happening to me? I was about to lounge when another wave of pain hit me and I fall over and groan in pain, beads of sweat begin to fall from my body, I feel warm hands gently rub my side, even though the pain does not subside it still calms me down a bit " Roro get out of there before he hurts you " I growl ferociously at my uncle, I'm sorry guys I can't help it, I place my weight down on Red, God I hope I'm not hurting her. Another round of mind breaking pain shoots to me and I swear to you I'm about to die, my bones feel like they're breaking on their own, I look down at my hands and I can see fur shooting though my skin, my nose begins to elongate, there's fur everywhere, I throw my head back and scream but it comes out as a howl, I'm exhausted, I hadn't even noticed that Red had moved from
Once they were all done, the King stood up and thanked them for their time, we were about to leave when Evo called out to me " ah Alpha Teejan " " yes Evo " " Ivo wants to know, where Red is, he'd like to say thank you but Red never came to visit which is pretty unusual "" Ahh yes sorry, you know Red would've been the first in and last out huh, I sent Red out on a solo mission sorry to say but it couldn't wait "" Okay, we understand we will see Red after then, thank you Alpha " they all bow again as we turn to leave.We walk out of the hospital in silence, once we're outside the King comes closer to me " may I ask what was Red's mission that had to be done so soon after an incident like that " " I do apologies my King, if I had known before you were coming I would not have sent Red straight away, it wasn't until after Red left I got word that you were on the way to the pack "" I see, well if that's what happened then I suppose it can't be helped " Alpha King TylerHmm, I do find i
I meet them on their way to the second site which is where the creatures escaped, I quite honestly feel some type of way that we had them, well one of them in our grasp and let them get away but what comforts me is knowing that even though that happened we were able to save the warrior, his human form has only a small scar on his face which I know would've been much worse had Roro not been there, he most likely would've been disfigured or worse, dead." Ah, Alpha Teejan, you made it " " sorry for the delay Alpha Tyler " " hmm it's no problem, I'd like to speak to the warriors after we finish inspection on the border, I was also telling your Beta that you should think about cutting a few trees around the territory, if it is a case of the creatures really are hiding from the sun then that could be helpful "" Well as much as I appreciate that advise sir, but I don't really that would be a good thing to do because it would then expose our borders not only to other packs and rogues but al
Alpha King Tyler' Perhaps the scent was something they used to clean the office Hunter, what else could it possibly be? '' I don't know human but it smelled delicious, I want to eat it ' my wolf licks his snout in my mind and I shake my head, ' focus please, we came on a mission not to be gluttons ' he snorts and goes to lay down in the back of my mind." Here we are my King " my guards followed along with the Beta and I and they fanned out looking and sniffing around the area, considering they are Royal Guards they share in the Lycan Lineage so the sense is Ten times that of a werewolf." Search carefully men, even if it's the tiniest clue, it would most certainly be helpful " " yes sir! " " so this is where they would have seen the trespassers? " " yes " " where is the look out? " I tilt my head back and look up to the tree top but I can't see anything, the Beta chuckles lightly beside me " it's right above us my King, Red was very instrumental in designing and building the hide o
She is fighting for control of her wolf who I'm sure wants her mate and she turns away and makes him whimper again " what's your name? " " my name is --" " NO, she will reject you if you tell her " " Alpha! "The King interjects " Ms. I can vouch for my guard and tell you he is without a doubt an exemplary man who has saved himself for his mate, that is how much he values his matebond, he will not hurt you nor use the matebond against you I give you my word as your King, give Grey a chance, get to know him "Once again she's fighting her wolf and this time she loses, she runs up to him and throws herself at him and he catches her effortlessly and begin making out like we’re not even here." Okay, I take that as our que to leave " " I concur "The King and I leave the kitchen and make our way up to my office, I open and step in first " please, be seated my K-Alpha Tyler " his eyes seem kind of wild and gleam golden " is everything okay sire? " he sniffs the air " what is this scent ? "
The King follows me up to the top floor, it's a wing that has never been used but I always thought necessary if in the event we have visitors of high esteem and finally my silly thought as my mate said has come to fruitarian, I will certainly remind her of her words later on haha." This is where you will stay my King, the entire floor is unused, you are the first, if needed there is a lift right here to get you up and down if you don't feel like taking the stairs "" Ah yes thank you for mentioning that after we've made the hike "I feel very sheepish, " apologies my King, I'm so used to taking the stairs that it slipped my mind " I'm only teasing you Alpha, thank you I will be down shortly, see you then "I bow and take my leave, heading back down to check on the kitchen and dining room.I push the kitchen door and they are really on the go running about and barking orders at each other but when they notice me they all stop to bow at me " don't mind me, carry on, how are things comin
Alpha Teejan" The King you said? "" Yes Alpha Teejan, that's correct the King "" On his way to my pack? rrright now? "" Yes Alpha Teejan that's correct once again, he's heard of your recent incident and wishes to investigate it on his own so he's on his way to you, already landed and is on route as we speak "" What?! b-but h-how long will he be staying with us? "" Just over night "" Then I have to go and get a room ready for him and get the pack ready to welcome him "" Calm down Alpha, it's an incognito impromptu visit, just get the room ready, a meal and that is all, no need to go above and beyond, it's not a royal official visit okay? the most important thing is that he's comfortable and get the information needed and most importantly, he does not appreciate she wolves throwing themselves at him or approaching him with any sort of idea of bedding him okay? so be cautious of that "" Noted, thank you Royal Beta for your call, I will get things in place for him right away "" D
Roho" Roro, I know this may feel like I'm asking a lot of you but you understand don't you, I know what I said while not saying it out right when we spoke before but I'm sure your 'friend' would be able to help us " " it's fine my Alpha, I really have no problem doing this, it's like a sanctioned road trip to a friend! so I don't mind plus I can top up on some potions too! " " do you want me to send an escort with you? " " no way, sorry I mean, no thank you Alpha, I rather do this on my own, plus Tabi isn't so comfortable with new people " " understood well don't let me keep you and please Ro, be safe " " always, I will see you in a few days my Alpha "I bow and turn to leave his office, opening and closing the door behind me gently, I turn and bump right into the chest of Ivan, who places two hands on my shoulders to steady me and keep me from falling backwards, " careful there Red, what's the hurry? " " hey Ivo! it's been a while since I've seen you, how you been? too busy for frien
Lord Umi "Sire! you're needed urgently back at the palace" I rise immediately because I know for me to be asked back has to be something major happened whether good or bad I need to know. " Hey, where you off to?" Right Astrid " I've got some urgent business to take care of, I'll see you later. I don't have time for explanations right now, I brush by her and head out, I know I have to use the gateway at my office because if I go into my room she will only pester me. We arrive at the office building and ride the elevator to the top floor were my office and other domain door is, everyone on this floor belong to me so I have no need for formality or greetings when I come and go here, they all seem to be tensed for some reason though. My office door swings open with a bang and I waste no time heading straight to the domain door and stepping through, my commander is waiting a few feet away for me and rushes to me when he sees me " sire, thank Hades you've arrived! we have a problem, le
Roho I am so damn tired, I have no idea how long I have to do this training class for but this is most certainly not it for me, hanging with a bunch of kids, sheesh but anyway it's cool to see how well Beau has adapted to our way of life and made friends here so there's that. Alpha Teegan really seems to have it in for me, there are so many other warriors that can do the training but somehow when casting lots I always seem to get the short stick ( -_- ) Beau was the first to find his way to me through the forest on our last session, apart from him only Four others made it to me while the other Thirteen did not so those Five are in the training centre doing the drills I left them to do and the Thirteen is here with me redoing it, today is their third day if you can believe it. This rock has seen my ass in three days more than my bed has in a week, sigh I look up when I sense a few presence close by, I guess they made it after all , third time the charm. No, this isn't right the pres
