The air began to miss, my sight was completely clouded. I was only aware of his gaze murdering me. I noticed that the haze disappeared as the seconds passed. My magic was trying to go back, but my state was not the best. I could not think of coherence. I thought about Hunter … If I died, he would follow me. I did not want to die like that, I did not want to lose everything like that. I wanted to cling to life. However, I did not prepare myself to notice the change in his eyes. He went from seeing me as if he wanted to make me disappear, to seeing me with panic, with the horror mark on his face, as if he did not understand what was happening. As if something was killing him inside … He released me. I fell to the ground, hitting my head on the spot with some roots. I was about to lose consciousness, my sight became black and started dancing and entered into the unconsciousness and reality when I noticed Primrose. Primrose emerged from the forests with a dagger in her hand. It was
They looked at each other’s eyes, as if they were deciding what to do without words. It even seemed like a discussion. I knew what they thought. Lily had accepted my words without replicas, but Liam was insisting. He wanted to stay. Liam was incredibly overprotective with me. “There’s no time for this!” I shouted. “Get out of here!” Lily nodded in my direction, taking Liam’s hand and disappearing before he could register it. I breathed calmly once they left. Leonel looked at me with apprehension, transmitting everything he felt through that look. He left a soft caress on my shoulder without saying a word. I know how much he felt with the loss of Primrose. He had also been her friend, for a very short time he did live with her. “Do you have an idea of what we are going to do?” he asked. “We’re going to condemn us.” We move towards the dying body of Allen Samuel. He was sweating and murmuring Primrose’s name . He seemed to be in a lot of pain. He writhed between the withered flow
“This new life … is it good?” He stood up. “It will be.” I smiled. Yule Cairo walked away from me. I saw him leave smiling. I’m happy for him. We had managed to save him. The meadow began to darken, until the sun hid and the moon came out to replace it. It was then when my head began to hurt. It hurt a lot. I complained, holding my head. What the hell was happening with me? “Wake up!” I opened his eyes, getting close with Hunter’s anguished face. My mate, my best friend. His hetero chromatic eyes welcomed me. His gaze travelled over my body as if he were looking for injuries, as if he’s trying to find out what was wrong. “Sienna, my bunny, my love.” He hugged me as he cried. I felt my body slow, my mind scattering between sleep and reality. What had happened? Wolf? Wolf? Wolf! “Hunter,” I whispered in panic, my voice trembling just like my hands. “My wolf…” Hunter shook his head, answering me without words. My wolf had not managed to survive. There were no traces of her,
I had to run.I wasn’t so sure about why I was running off anymore. I had a gut feeling that I should never quit. It didn’t matter how exhausted I was to the point that my feet bled. Or how hungry I was which made my stomach howl as if it were home to an evil beast.The only rule was that I should not stop, and if I did, it should be for a limited time as possible. Only when it was dark, and I was somewhere safe, such as the top of a tree or a cave, was I allowed to stop running. I was only doing it because running across the forest after the sunset was impossible. I could also plug in a town and try to stock up on food, but that didn’t always work out because I didn’t have ample money to buy it so I ended up stealing most of the time.I had to hold out for as long as I could to avoid being caught.Who was going to be the one to catch me? I had no idea.I had been on the run for so long that I had forgotten what had been worrying me. However, when I let my guard down, something in me
“Enough!” I yelled angrily.The kids around me paused for a few seconds before running around again. In this place, I was as powerful as a flea. Actually, they ignored me much more than fleas could.Bradley, the pack’s beta, had requested my assistance because his sister was in labor. Along with his mate, he was in charge of the pack’s nursery.Yes, I am a member of a werewolf pack, though I am not one of them.Packs worked in unusual ways. We had an alpha who served as our leader and wielded the greatest amount of power. Then the beta stood beside him and gave orders. He was the second in command, a respectable man who was capable of taking control of the pack if the situation demanded it.There’s also a moon, of course. The moon was predestined to be the Alpha’s partner. But we lacked someone to fill her position. And inquiring about it was considered impolite at the time. Nobody brought up the moon’s absence because they were afraid of the outcomes of doing so.I was adopted when I
The Institute. That place that is full of teenagers and raging hormones was anyone’s nightmare. Some could pretend to love this place while others instead openly demonstrated how much they hated it. Hunter was one of those guys. Always complaining and always grumpy. The Institute was dangerous and teeming with predators. Much more because this said Institute was full of supernatural beings who barely managed to live together. Humans were a minority in this place, but other humans felt too special to notice the anomalies. They did not realize that sometimes we shared classes with werewolves. A being so terrifying that they could kill an average human in just seconds. Oh, but arrogance can do more. None of them paid enough attention to anyone other than themselves, so even if the werewolves sometimes showed that wild behavior that characterizes them, the human would simply not notice. In fact, I only knew the existence of wolves because I was raised in a pack and I knew each of the m
And, of course, I didn’t.I had been walking in the rain for two hours. And not just any rain, it seems that the sky is about to split in two. I shivered with every step I took, my teeth chattering from the cold.The worst of the case? The rain didn’t allow me to see where I was walking, so I wasn’t even sure I was going to the right place. In the forest, everything was dark, with no trace of moonlight to guide my way. I tripped over a root in the ground again, hitting my knees as I fell to the muddy ground.I got up, even when it was just provoking me to stay there, give up and wait for, hopefully, the members of the pack to look for me all over the forest.I was tired, hungry, and dead from the cold. I couldn’t think coherently. I just wanted to take refuge in the heat of the pack.It haunted me to think that while I was having the worst day of my life, Hunter was on a date, having fun, happy.I collapsed, exhausted. There was not the slightest sign of being near the herd. I was los
The next day I was feeling much better. There were still traces of illness, I sneezed from time to time and I should always have a handkerchief at hand, but at least I could now go to school.The future Alpha was leaning against his white car, gleaming, waiting for me. He wore a forest green shirt, ripped pants at the knees, and a wild smile on his lips.So attractive, so provocative. I had an immense desire to jump on him, taste his lips and lose myself in him. He cleared his throat, drawing my attention.I didn’t feel ashamed. Hee did the same thing all the time. I was wearing a white T-shirt and distressed jeans. I needed to buy more clothes, but I had to free myself from a couple of exams before I could get to work.Sometimes I worked in a cafeteria in the center of the city. The owner was a kind she-wolf. She had accepted me as a daughter, despite her being a widow.I had come into her life right after the death of her husband. Werewolves normally die after the loss of their mate
