CHAPTER TWELVE

My eyes blinked gently as I turned in bed, my hands touching an object on my right hand. I cleared my face and realised there was a wristwatch on my hand.

The aura was entirely different, the weather remaining cool, the breeze also filling up the air but slowly engulfing me. I felt warmth with Angus, as he ran through my body.

I looked up instantly and got up. I wondered, my mouth opened agape when I saw Angus.

"Angus Fraser!" I called him, waving to him to come near. He was speaking with some of his friends far away, but I knew he was the one.

"Is it that urgent?" Ronan, Angus's brother asked me, suddenly showing up behind me. "As you can see, Alpha Angus is occupied at the moment and he cannot be available anytime soon."

"Why?" I muttered, wiping my face as the wonder and beauty of the new environment cast a lasting radiance to my view. "And, why is Angus called an Alpha?"

"Didn't you know how he fought and won at last?" Ronan continued, his heads bowed and his arms curling ar

    The sound of the music was quite overwhelming, tingling my ears. It was an unusual meeting point with numerous people, who claimed to have come from different families. I realised I was made to sit in between two hefty men, my eyes blinking in uncertainty. I kept on staring at Angus, who was wonderfully dressed in a suit, sharing glasses of wine with the people that sat at the table. When Angus reached me, he smiled and dropped the wine bottle. “Ellie, how are you today?” I didn't respond, but then, I made Angus bend his head to hear my whisper. “What are we up to, here?” “Don't you realise this is our second party in Glasgow?” Angus wondered, making gestures with his hands. “It is another day of celebration.” “Then, who are these people?” I muttered, trying to avoid my face from moving around their eyes. “Angus, do you really know them?”“That's funny of you.” Angus stated, smiling widely as he raised his head again. “I will…” I said, my words falling off, as Angus left tempora

    It was already evening. Everyone who had graced the third meeting had dispersed. Ewen had walked farther from me before I could realise I was left alone. The third party we celebrated was a grand one as well, but we didn't spend much time like we did, the earlier times. Suddenly, the weather became cloudy but I didn't expect a downpour at all, since it was quite unusual to see such, back in Arleta. “Well, here is a different place.” I muttered to myself, as I raised my feet and hurried to meet Ewen. “Hey, wait!” I called him, my voice recklessly raised. “Just stop, right there!” “What is it?” Ewen voiced back, turning back instantly. “Why are you after me now? Do you need any piece of information from me?” I was taken aback. Ewen might be trying to hide some secrets from the rest of us, who were present at the three parties. It was made clear in the way Ewen spoke, the tone of his voice dwindling suspiciously, as someone aiming to only spy on us. After Angus had requested to ha

    The week wrapped up in a short period of time, making way for the current month end to come around. I was already self-employed as an overall Manager of a non-governmental organisation in central Glasgow. It was a holiday for me, so I was at home listening to loud high life music. I kept dancing to the tune for hours and didn't want to stop. Suddenly, my mood changed as what I would call strange memories flashed through my face, engaging my sight and engulfing my mind. The music I had turned on was sounding eerie to my ears, when the news of my mother's demise which had long happened in the past came visiting again. “What's wrong?” I said to myself, walking up to the bluetooth device to turn it off. “I can't listen to this anymore, at least for now…” Ewen's suspicious mission, Angus's usual long-stretch departure from home and memory of Alpha Thane's desire to capture and claim me, were all I was thinking about before I recalled that I once had a mother.Whenever I thought of that

    A few months later, after our introduction during those three parties and the discussions we made to know more about each other, Angus pointed the location of the new apartment to me. Well, I didn't know yet why Angus chose to leave that building we first lived in when we got to Glasgow. Perhaps he wanted to switch from renting to private housing, I wasn't sure. It was a bright noon, but the atmosphere remained cool, casting a comfortable breeze into the house. I hadn't seen every side of the house, since we arrived there late, the night before. “Ellie.” Mary called my name, as she tapped me at the back, whispering some words into my ears. “Are you ready?” “For?” I shot back, my fingers placed on my lips in uncertainty.“We already said we would go to the mall to get some stuff.” Mary explained, her voice brought low. “Can't you recall?” “Oh, that’s true.” I rejoined, clicking my hands with affirmation. “Get ready!” Mary snapped at me, as she walked back into the visitor's room.

    “Ahh!” I exclaimed, the ringtone sounding inside the room attracting me. I dropped my bag outside and forced the door open. “You've missed Angus so bad.” Mary teased me, helping with my bag as we walked into the house. “Why not?” I returned, as I received the call and fortunately for me, it was Angus. “Hello?” “Hey, Ellie.” Angus replied to me. “It's so cold right here. Please, come over and meet me at the park.” “Whoa!” I interjected. “You're at the park!” “Yes.” Angus responded, “I will be expecting you.” “No qualms, baby.” I answered him, hurrying to my room to quickly undress and change my clothes. I wanted to appear more beautiful to Angus, since I had seen him for quite a long time. In a few minutes, I was out of the room, my heels making a noise on the tiled floor that Mary looked back. “When will you be back, Ellie?” Mary questioned, as she slowly walked into the kitchen. “Anytime soon.” I replied, speaking somewhat coldly. “Okay.” Mary reverted Immediately, drooping

    Thirty minutes later, after we had reached the park and I had even alighted from the car, I began to feel an ache in my stomach. I was disturbed and I discovered there must be something causing it, so I held onto a wall. Angus didn't want us to wait in Glasgow any longer. At least if we wanted to spend more time there, we had to escape from Alpha Thane, who was preparing to wage war against us. Mary saw me and came down from the car immediately. Shocked and concerned, she asked me. “What is going wrong, Ellie?” “Hmm…” I let out, my clear voice hindered by the intensity of the pain. Mary understood the situation so fast, but she didn't say anything until Angus came down also, hurrying to my side. “Ellie, what's this?” Angus questioned, quickly handling his car keys to Mary. “I guess she needs an urgent medical attention.” “Exactly she does.” Mary answered, “I could recall we passed through a well known hospital while we were driving down here.” “So, shall we return there?

    Suddenly, as I turned my head, I discovered there was a strange passage we needed to walk through, whenever we wanted to land in Arleta again. The atmosphere was often warm in the passage, not cold like that of Glasgow's.My chest beat when I lost sight of Angus. Even Mary wasn't seen as well. It appeared to me like they had already reached Arleta, leaving me behind. I saw some other people moving tirelessly as well, so I looked around if Angus was still nearby. “Angus?” I called his name, my voice intentionally raised. “Where are you, Angus?”“Right behind you…” Angus responded immediately, appearing with a smile. “Where did you go?” I questioned. “Nowhere, dear.” Angus answered me. “I have been close.” “Who are these people?” I whispered to Angus's ears, grabbing him to my side. “They are werewolves.” Angus replied, dashing me in amazement. “Many of them aren't mere men. They are wolves.” “But, they can't fight us…” I muttered, my eyes rolling at one of them in fear. “Can they

    Thirty minutes after 4pm, as the evening closed, inviting the night, we reached Arleta. As usual, the land was seriously overwhelmed with strange serenity and shrouded in darkness, nearly blinding us. Before we were permitted to move around the environment, some guards stopped us, throwing several questions at us. “Wait!” The guard ordered, adjusting his position to my right. “Hope you people have a pack you belong to here in Arleta?”“I don't understand this.” Mary questioned the man, twisting her hands in uncertainty. “Has Arleta been modernised?” “Err…” Angus complemented, his voice lowered anyways. “Do we need all these processes before we enter this dark and dangerous land?”“Did you just call it dangerous?” The guard shot back, deliberately supporting his jaws with his hands. “Aren't you werewolves of a pack?” “Well,” Angus retorted. “Since you're this eager to know a lot about us. I'll tell you we are wolves. But, the pack we belong to doesn't concern you in any way, does i

    Moonlight and clearing reigned, as even now the full energy of the ancient tree coursed through me. Visions were mercifully bright and elegant, telling secrets of our pack's history and destiny. It stirred awe and wonder in me, as my brain tried to process the weight of what I had learned. Deep breath, to chill out the racing thoughts. I clearly knew that I had to share it with Angus and our advisors to let any meaning sink in, but for now, I may just stand in the serene clearing. Suddenly, silence fell apart with the rustling of leaves. Turned alert on high senses, a figure showed from the shadows, eyes sicked upon me with an unnerving intensity. Then close, I was shaken by the shiver that raked my spine again as he took a step closer, facial features still hidden by darkness. "Scream caution. Protect. Our pack."It raised wide hands, preparing to defend, were it needed. Another step forward and I could make out a little of their features - shape of face, general outline of eye

    I lay down softly on the ground and began to look around for the fight. The Thane Wrest pack was powerful, but I was not to be defeated. With one smooth move, I tore into the wolves, closing my fingers around their mouths to rip out their teeth. They howled and snapped as they stumbled backward, trying to shake out the confusion.I attacked quickly, bringing down wolf after wolf. But with each kill, the gnawing sense of caution appeared to grow stronger. I didn't want to kill those wolves. They were forced to fight just as my pack members were. A moment's hesitation was all the Thane Wrest needed to rally.The wolves were breeding practically unlimited. I realised the need to do something fast. "No killing. I wonder why we cannot just settle this fight between us!” The wolves stopped their growls but looked at me with frightened but firm eyes. I knew I had to do something or be swamped.Breathing a little harder, I bound my mind and unleashed a blast of my power. The wolves were knoc

    I stood there tall in front of the Thane Wrest pack. My feet were suspended above the ground, and my voice rang clear through the clearing, being reflected back off the trees. "I am here for peace, with an offer for a treaty that would end the bloodshed between our packs." The tension was palatable, the pack members exchanging casino glances. Some looked away; others looked at me with a blend of curiosity and hostility. I met them unwavering. Then from the throng, a tall figure strode forth. There appeared a frown on Alpha Thane's face and in the process, it widened in rage. "You're nothing but a fool, don't you know?" he shouted at me, spitting on the ground, his tone wrapped with scorn. "How can just walk in here and demand that we sign a treaty?" I grinned; my gaze was fixed on his. "I don't demand Alpha Thane; I propose. I'm willing to negotiate terms." Alpha Thane's face grew even darker. "The only term I'll accept is you becoming mine." I laughed, filling the clearing with

    CHAPTER 76 It was the first day of the full dark moon and I realised it was just counting. The moment meant for the war with strange beasts and we, the wolves had just started. I was seated with Angus, my wolf mate and what he could only do was caress me. "Angus!" I calmed him down, looking at him closely. "Why aren't you concerned about what might suddenly happen?" "When I am horny?" Angus reacted strangely, rolling his tongue lustfully. "I shouldn't be any concerned, my love.” "Angus, this isn't the time for your lustful desires!" I retorted, pushing him away gently. "We have a war to prepare for, lives to protect!" He chuckled, his golden eyes gleaming in the dim light of our den. "And what better way to protect lives than to ensure the continuation of our pack, my Luna?" He reached for me again, but I stood up, my patience wearing thin. "Angus, be serious!" I growled, my wolf instincts rising to the surface. "The dark moon brings out the worst in those creatures. We need

    The following day was sweet, as well. But, I felt no change in my body. My wolf didn't come out of my body. I wondered but the feeling of sleeping with Angus, my husband that night was too sweet. Angus reached me, as if knowing each of my thoughts. "Are you ready for an outing in Arleta. Shall we go to a nearby bar?""Hmm, what of Eric, your friend?" I asked, concerned."No." Angus objected. "He can't be with us, seeing our tools. I will fuck you right there too.""Okay." I replied, firmly agreed to Angus as I kept staring at him. "I want doggy..." I purred, rubbing my body against his, feeling the familiar heat rise within me. He chuckled, a low, rumbling sound that vibrated through my core. "As you wish, my love. But first, let's have a drink, shall we?" He took my hand, his touch sending shivers down my spine. The anticipation was almost unbearable. I knew that tonight, under the Arletan sky, with the taste of alcohol on our lips, we would unleash a passion that would leave us bre

    "I don't see you," I said, my heart pounding in my chest. "This isn't funny, Angus."A low growl reverberated through the air, and the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end. It wasn't Angus's voice, and it definitely wasn't human. The sound seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to locate its source. Panic began to set in, and I spun around, desperately trying to find something familiar in the shifting shadows.Then I saw it. A pair of glowing eyes, burning like embers in the darkness. They were fixed on me, and I felt a primal fear grip me, paralyzing me in place. The growling intensified, and a dark shape began to emerge from the trees. It was large, muscular, and covered in thick fur. Its teeth were bared in a menacing snarl, and its eyes held a wild, predatory gleam. This was no ordinary animal. This was something else entirely. Something terrifying."Angus?" I whispered again, but I already knew it wasn't him. This creature, whatever it was, had taken his pl

    At a nearby restaurant called Klingon bar, where Angus usually visited since we got here, in order to have some fun, and take his mind off worries, he stood and watched around, hoping he would meet Mr. Kenneth, who was his new adviser. As usual, I was around him to ensure he was doing well and nothing bothered him much. I stayed with Sarah, his friend at the bar. It had been two hours, Angus hadn't even heard of the man. Several peeping through his window didn't work, especially when he found out from Sarah that the man had travelled for a tour. Angus yawned. Sarah offered him a chair as usual, but not with any soft drink. He called her, talking to her as if he was joking. "Sarah! Won't you offer me a drink at least? I trust you for the delicious… orange juice." "Hmm…" Sarah returned, her response conveying the same thought as Angus's. "I think we have a small extra here, I'll be back soon." She entered to get one cup for him and arrived so quickly with a straw neatly pierced in i

    It was a snowy day. Nothing happened yet. Suddenly, Angus's voice broke the silence. I was in the study room, overhearing Angus's complaints. "God!" Angus howled, not speaking to anybody, but to himself. "It's high time I found a job in this strange land. Why should everything be unclear?” "Perhaps New Hawkshire wasn't meant for you…" Mr. Cooper retorted, as he appeared suddenly from the dining room. "Oh, you are here, sir…" Angus whimpered, almost bowing. “What's the meaning of that?” "Keep it right there." Mr. Cooper reverted, his mind clearly rejecting Angus's greeting, and angry, because of the words he heard him say earlier. "Are you reporting me to God, or what? Whatever…! Just make sure you secure a job, and shamelessly make your own money, at least for once…" "Money?!" Angus interrupted him, almost rudely. He was getting frustrated and at that particular time, I walked in. "Dad, what's wrong again?" I questioned Mr. Cooper, who played the role of my father due to his w

    Since we found ourselves in another land, we weren't settled yet. What bothered everyone mostly was the war.Angus sighed, waking up to the usually dull atmosphere, his mouth effusing cold breath as of an idle person. He didn't have any work to do, not even a reasonable duty. "Hi, Mr. Cooper!" He greeted the man he called his father-in-law, who had accommodated him in a family house. "Hope you slept well, Angus?" Mr. Cooper returned, closing and opening his eyes intermittently to shake off some dust off his face. "Yes, sir." Angus answered, hoping to escape and go outside to perhaps walk around. He feared Mr. Cooper's threat, especially whenever he was angry and was pointing at him, hurling potent words at him. "Come over…" Mr. Cooper interposed, not letting Angus move a step. "Have you ever seen the person you love today? Let me start from there." "Oh, sincerely…" Angus replied, trying to snub the right response. "But, she hasn't woken up.
