On the trail of the wolf 11
Unable to resist, I ran my hand over the runes on the door frame. What a huge mistake people made when they adopted a strange faith a little more than two thousand years ago. How much pain and suffering it brought. And I'm not talking now about werewolves who were skinned alive when they refused to be baptized by their prince. And not about other magical creatures who, after all the persecution, will never come out to meet with a mere mortal. What did the people get? What good did someone else's faith bring them?Knowledge that has been passed down by word of mouth for thousands of years has been washed away by the new religion. Divine creatures, who from the beginning of time lived side by side with man, were forgotten, and now they can only be mentioned in fairy tales. And what did people get in return? Churches where money is pulled from believers at every opportunity? Priests who go around draped in gold, not embarrassed to tell poor parishioners what to believe and endure? But wh
On the trail of the wolf 12
A frightened wolf is afraid of bumps,or a little bit about harsh reality.The week went by like a blur for me. I automatically went to the store, visited the pool every day, catching myself thinking that in anticipation of a meeting with Stanislav, even the smell of bleach had become something ordinary and not worth my attention. The beast was also in a state of stupor, occasionally drawing my attention to the presence or absence of guards nearby. But if during the day I was a little distracted, behaving like a person for the sake of appearance, then the nights turned into a real nightmare for me.Sleep did not go, just like when my wolf was dying inside me, causing an unbearable feeling of loneliness and longing. But now the reason was not in it. I was afraid. I was scared to death of being refused help from Stanislav and being left alone again. No, I don’t argue, Bestia will now forever remain with me together, but will we ever be able to live fully with her? Spread? Don't hide? Wh

- What will you do when you are convinced of his involvement? Stanislav asked me when we passed him. - To study, as I understand it, there will be no desire anymore?Stopping, I thought for a moment. Nonsense, of course, utter, in Arthur I am sure, as in myself, if not more. But, let's say Arseny acted on the orders of his son - what then?“I will study,” the answer came by itself, as soon as Bestia and I imagined for a moment that the sapphire wolf could really do this to us. I was able to deceive and betray in the most cruel way. “To cut their throats one day.”Stanislav only grunted at my words, shrugging vaguely, and I continued to follow Anya into the house.- Wow! What a bloodthirsty baby! - Andrei's voice flew into my back, followed by the sound of another slap in the face. - Ai! Dad! For what?- For childishness and posturing! - came the answer of Stanislav, and I could not help smiling.Once upon a time I had a family. Jokes, friendly teasing, caring for each other... It's ha

- I hate you, I hate, I hate ... - I whispered, looking at one point, trying to kill all my feelings for Arthur, - I hate, I hate ...The beast howled piercingly, echoing my words.Wolf habits, robber tricks,or how to become a real wolfdog.- Mira, it seems to me, or are you sleeping? - Stas's insinuating whisper invaded my dormant thoughts at the same time as Andrey's loud laugh.“I’m not sleeping,” sharply opening my eyes and stumbling upon the alpha’s gaze full of doubts, I realized that he didn’t believe me. And he does it right!After sobbing for almost a week in a communal apartment, feeling sorry for myself and cursing the former leader and his son, I realized that was all. Enough. And for almost a month now I have been regularly coming to Stanislav, where he is trying to teach me how to switch. But if only it were that easy!"I'm sorry," I confessed, trying desperately to hide a yawn. - I really concentrated, or rather, both of us. But…- But not enough! - Stas imprinted. May

- You can not inflict mortal harm on uninitiated werewolves. This is a law, for the violation of which Veles punishes instantly, - Stanislav answered me quite seriously. – And the death of the beast does not change anything, because there was no initiation anyway. That is why you have created acceptable living conditions. But why they simply didn’t wait for your initiation, and didn’t beat it later - I don’t know. But, in this case, seeing that you are an alpha, no one would get rid of you.“Wait,” I was completely confused in his explanations. “But I had an initiation. And I'm alpha! The guards feel this, you yourself said that ordinary wolves recognize who is in front of them - simple or alpha. And why did the leader and his son ignore this?- The guards don't feel you, - Stas rose to his feet, looking disapprovingly at his dozing son. “For them, you are still a normal person. And ahead of the flurry of your questions, - he raised his hand, laughing, as soon as I opened my mouth, -

Having gone out into the clearing and having found Andrey nearby, I turned to the she-wolf. The beast seemed to be just waiting for this, sending the thought that she was ready to try to spread again.Well, come on, dear! This time we will succeed!Looks like a sheep, but smells like a wolf,or everything comes with experience.Five years later...Will you pay by card or cash? - A pretty girl at the checkout with a smile glued to her lips turned to me, watching out of the corner of her eye as her assistant puts purchases in the store's branded bag.- With a card, - handing her a credit card, I turned slightly to the left, pretending to straighten my hair, looking into one of the mirrors hung everywhere.I was actually checking to see if my guards were missing. No, the boys are here! Funny. For the sixth hour I walk under their strict control around the shopping center.- Thank you for shopping! - the girl returned the card to me, holding out three weighty packages. We will be glad to

Without wasting time on unnecessary reasoning, I scratched my finger with my fingernail and activated one of Anya's amulets that imitated my presence in the apartment, sprinkling it a little with my blood. Now you don't have to worry about the guards - for three days they will be completely sure that I am here. We can only hope that Mitrich just decided to use the phone, and nothing out of the ordinary happened. Hope was fragile, but at least something! I didn't mean to panic. Whatever it is, I have plenty of time to deal with the problem. Beast growled in agreement, habitually listening to her surroundings.It was already dark outside the windows and there were no people walking on the street. Putting on new stiletto boots, and taking a leather jacket and a clutch with documents and a phone just in case, I gently jumped out of the window, landing on the sidewalk near the house. Still, jeans are not suitable for such somersaults, otherwise how to explain the protesting crackle of the

Live with wolves, howl like a wolf,or a little about useful acquaintances.I was sitting on a couch, at the feet of the newly-minted princess, waiting for the moment when she wakes up. Mitrich was bustling about at the stove, preparing us his signature pies, the mere aroma of which made my stomach rumble loudly. The girl's name was Akulina, as the goblin enlightened me, and, judging by her revived emotions, she should just wake up.- Good morning, Akulina, - I greeted the girl, as soon as she opened her eyes. She, in response, was frightened and jumped up on the bed, miraculously not throwing me from her familiar place. - I see you are better now, since you are jumping like that!Goblin was not mistaken - the girl really is. And although at the moment she didn’t smell of anything inhuman, her eyes betrayed her with her head. Like all nagas who are in power and related to the royal family, Akulina's pupil changed color from black to sparkling gold and constantly changed in size, pulsa

On the trail of the wolf Epilogue
“Hi, my personal wolfdog!I am sincerely happy for you, and for your Arthur! Although, still a little shocked by everything his father did. The main thing is that everything was resolved for you in the best possible way! Yes, and your sister is good, you won’t say anything, she didn’t go far from mine. By the way, Vasilisa, like your Barbara, apologized to me. I didn’t personally approach, like yours, but wrote a very strange letter, but we’ll talk about this sometime when we meet! If they let me out of here...Basilesk keeps shaking over me, like over a crystal vase, despite all my objections! And you know what? It seems like I'm starting to like it! Especially when he does not go too far. His last bzik is called: "Protect your wife from bad news!". And given that he now considers everything bad from a creaking door (which will suddenly disturb my sleep!) To too hot tea (I can get burned!), Now I live as if in a sugary vanilla world ... I’m wondering, but if I will ask for sunlight,

- Now! Varvara grinned at me in the face and went to the exit.Right now, right now, I don't really care when I beat her. But he won’t dare to climb into our pair anymore. I was about to follow when I was intercepted by Arthur.- Why? he whispered, and looking into his eyes full of despair and fear, I felt a little uneasy. He does not know that I have Bestia, and that nothing threatens me.“Everything will be fine,” I whispered, cupping his face in my hands, “trust me.”His fear did not go away, and I felt ashamed that I had dragged out the confession for so long. On the other hand, he had ten minutes left to worry, no more, then there would be a fight, and he himself would see everything. The main thing is not to rush to defend me, spitting on all the rules of the wolfs.“Follow him,” I asked Stas as I passed by, shaking my head at Arthur.- He does not know?- Not.After waiting for a nod from Stas, and seeing how he equals Arthur and reminds him not to interfere, I calmed down.Why

A wolf was born, a sheep cannot be,or each in his place.I woke up from the sound of a loudly slamming door, and at first I was confused, diligently trying to get out from under the blanket covering me with my head. The room was dim, from which I detachedly concluded that it was still early morning. The question, why the hell did someone decide to slam the door to my room so early, got stuck in my throat, as I saw Arthur lying next to me, and the events of the past night quickly surfaced in my memory, driving away all my drowsiness.- Good morning, - noticing that I woke up, my beloved smiled at me, hugging and pulling me to him.- Something happened? - I did not hide the bewildered look of the leader, with which he bored the door, before looking at me.- Stas came, - kissing my nose, Arthur reluctantly continued, - you know, he seems to be angry.I was silent, waiting to hear the continuation, but my leader was clearly not going to continue the conversation, thoughtfully fingering t

- At the expense of the forest, - lifting my chin with his hand, he forced me to look into his eyes. - In my opinion, it was wrong to take advantage of the situation. There, you were the Mira who loved me with all her heart. And here - hating, as I thought, Vladimira. I was afraid that if I give vent to feelings, then waking up, you will hate me even more. That's what I meant then.- And Barbara? - I felt that he was not lying to me, but I did not understand why at that moment he did not think about my sister.We are alphas. And we can’t trade because the inner beast simply won’t allow us to do this. And since Arthur was with her, it could not have meant nothing to him. The stupid thought that, why, if Varya is so important to him, he easily spent the night with me, I pushed aside, referring to the echoes of the former affection.- Of course, I am extremely pleased that you are jealous of me ...“I’m not jealous,” I interrupted the man, but he only smiled back.This means that all is

To be afraid of a wolf - and to run away from a squirrel,or fears and misunderstandings.Three long days have passed since my dream with Arthur. The parasite was indeed destroyed, which I confirmed with the help of Mitrich by visiting him the next morning. It was wonderful! Just great! After all, now I could sleep alone again without fear of not waking up in the morning. I could have, but I didn't sleep. Now I'm starting to suffer from insomnia.Anya, seeing my torment, did not ambiguously hint at the need to talk to Arthur and stop torturing myself. For her, everything was simple and obvious. I just thought differently. The beast rolled her eyes and pretended to faint as she listened to my thoughts. It is easy for them to reason: go and talk! What should I tell him? Or rather, what will happen to me if he answers not what I want to hear?! My doubts about the words he said in a dream were very justified. In my opinion.It's good that Stas and Dyusha did not notice my mental throwing

His lips covered mine, furiously crushing them in a passionate kiss. I tried to answer him with all possible dedication, to show how much I love him, and that I did not doubt him for a second!- Vladimira, - the kiss ended as suddenly as it began, and the cold, squeamish tone of his voice caused me a new wave of panic, - a naive girl! Did you really think that I came to save you?His words made me break out in a cold sweat, but I didn’t have time to react at least somehow. As if out of nowhere, a huge black wolf swooped down on Arthur, knocking him to the ground! What happened next left me frozen in place in horror. Arthur's features sharpened and began to change rapidly until they turned into a completely healthy black creature with huge claws and red eye sockets on his face. The creature consisted, as if from patches of black fog, which were furious, torn by the wolf that came to my aid. A few minutes later, the monster was defeated, and in place of the wolf, Arthur, breathing heavi

The wolf will not crush the tail of the wolf,or return to the past for an hour.I sat like this until the evening, ignoring persistent knocks on the door. I felt Anya and Andrey's return home, but I didn't want to go out. After all, Arthur and Alice were also below. Bestia and I couldn't help noticing them either. Even though I really wanted to. But I couldn’t help but go out for dinner - the leader’s direct order cannot be ignored. Namely, Stas was for me. I didn't swear an oath to anyone else.- Obscurantism! I swore through my teeth, realizing that it was time to go downstairs, despite my desperate desire to stay in the room. One. Perhaps forever.But there was a plus in this situation! Beastia did not like to carry out the order, although it did not go against her desires. Therefore, today she promised me not to provoke me for her part into actions against Arthur. And thanks for that!Leaving the room, I almost cursed out loud again, as Arthur was standing opposite my door, propp

- Yes, we are not together! Unable to stand it, I raised my voice.Everything that was happening was starting to frankly strain! Alice's stubbornness got on my nerves no worse than Beast, in those moments when she tried to provoke me into unacceptable acts. But, praise the Gods, the she-wolf was now completely absorbed in our conversation with Dyushina's chosen one, and so far left her plans for rapprochement with Arthur. I hope that for good!- You sleep with him! the girl blurted out, also raising her voice. Or are you going to deny that too?Well, now it’s clear who Bestia and I smelled in our bedroom in the morning! Alice came, apparently decided to talk to me about Andrei, but she saw us sleeping in an embrace! That's just interpreted everything is fundamentally wrong!- I won't! I dismissed her argument. “It doesn't mean anything at all. Yes, and I sleep not only with him! Seeing her astonishment, and thinking about the words she had just spoken aloud, and how she could understa

One wolf drives a regiment of sheep,or strange accidents.The morning was strange. I woke up as if from a shock, but I could not determine the cause of my excitement. Somehow getting out of the arms of Andrey, who, during our overnight stays, has recently gotten into the habit of using me instead of a pillow, and, having examined the bedroom, I did not find anything suspicious. Typical early morning. There were no strangers in the room ... or were there? The Bestia, who woke up inside me, caught someone else, but she couldn’t say who exactly. Someone opened our door! And it was definitely not Stas and Anya. Walking to the exit of the room into the corridor and sniffing, I caught the smell. Weak werewolf, girl. We could not determine more with the she-wolf, since an unknown person came to us about an hour ago. And who came to visit us? And most importantly - why?Having come to the conclusion that, most likely, it was one of the outcasts (after all, the local residents of the communit
