Katniss was still a little girl when she realized that being a rogue was not safe and was very hard. They ate when they were able to hunt, if and when the packwolves left them alone or other rogues, cruel and sadistic, weren't around. They went cold or hot, with nothing clean to cover themselves with.
She had lived in hiding since she was orphaned at age sixteen. Now at eighteen, she had her wolf to protect her, but she wasn't strong enough to win against the nasty rogues who crossed her path and looked at her with lust in their eyes.
She had lost her father and mother on the same day. His father fought to the death to save the family from the clutches of 4 rogues. She managed to escape, because her parents ordered her to flee without looking back. Her poor mother allowed herself to be raped to death to keep them entertained while she fled.
His father had been a good alpha, who had run out of pack, been defeated by enemies, and forced to go rogue. He was a good man, but bitter at having been forced to subject his pregnant Luna to that life. He asked her to reject him and stay in the pack, but the love that united them won, and she followed him, even if it took her to hell.
During the years they lived together, her father tried to be accepted into some pack, but no alpha wanted another alpha on their land, even if that alpha had been destroyed.
She lived alone, hiding as best she could from other rogues. She knew that if she was caught, nothing would save her from the carnal desires of men, or worse, she would be made a sex slave to some rogue pack.
Her biggest dream was to find a pack that would accept her. She had alpha blood, but would gladly accept being an omega, a simple kitchen maid, in exchange for a real bed, clean clothes and three meals a day.
The problem was her fear of packwolves, as she had grown up with stories that they first killed the rogues, and only later would they find out if they were dangerous. How could a little shewolf approach a pack without being killed by them? That was something she still hadn't figured out, so she was still alone and without a pack.
Alexander acquired his Alpha title at the age of twenty-one, when his father thought it was the right time for him to be replaced. At twenty-three, he was the strongest and smartest of the pack, serious and honest, loved by all.
Michael has been his best friend since birth. He'd become his beta at age twenty, as his father didn't think a forty-year-old would be the perfect right-hand man for a young alpha.
Over the past two years, Alexander and Michael had become the perfect team, they didn't need to talk to know what the other thought or wanted.
The members of the Black Stone Pack lived happily and adored their leaders, but among themselves they commented on how sad it was to see such a good man as Michael suffer in silence. Michael didn't know that his secret was known in the pack.
Michael had loved Alexander since he was a little boy, and when he turned 18, his biggest heartbreak was seeing that Alex wasn't his soulmate. This secret he guarded religiously, and Alexander had no idea what was going on in his best friend's heart.
Alexandre had looked for his mate between eighteen and twenty-one, but had given up looking, telling his father that one day he would find her.
Michael, in turn, said he was in no hurry. He spent his free time in human bars, having sex with women and men who succumbed to his charms. That was the way he had to deal with not being able to touch the man he had loved forever. That was another secret he kept. He was bisexual.
Alex wasn't a virgin, he had his share of relationships, always out of the pack, with a few human women and even a few shewolves, but it never lasted more than a few months. He expected the Moon Goddess to mate him and he would wait for her as long as it took.
Luna, his mother, continued to assume the role of mother of the pack, until her son's mate appeared.
The packhouse was very large, and many werewolves lived in it. The 5th floor was reserved for the alpha and his family. On the 4th floor, lived the beta and his family. The 3rd and 2nd floors, with many rooms, were reserved for pack members, who, for different reasons, did not live in their own houses.
The 1st floor was reserved for orphans and the elderly who needed help to survive, while on the ground floor were the offices, library, dining room, collective showers, bathroom and kitchen.
Not far from the packhouse, there was the pack hospital, the school, the gym, the training fields, barracks, agricultural fields, livestock, orchards, in addition to several houses occupied by families of werewolves.
There was also a huge underground bunker, well supplied with food and water, which would serve to hide the pack members if any war broke out.
It wasn't a small pack, it had about five hundred members, and they lived in peace with neighboring packs and a few humans who knew of their existence.
The houses, and even the packhouse, were fitted with thick, huge silver railings, which were lowered to protect the shewolves from the males when they came into heat, or to keep the males trapped when they were in a rut.
Any unmarked shewolf in heat attracts males like lights attract moths. The alpha had ensured with this equipment that unmarked females were not in danger of being violated and marked by unmarked males, who entered a rut after sensing the pheromones of a female in heat.
These heat cycles occurred 4 times a year, and the only intention was to procreate.
The other packs didn't protect their females like the Black Stone Pack did. There, it was up to the marked relatives to protect and keep the children apart at these times of the year.
Heat cycles, which hit mated females and non-dominant males whose mate was of the same sex, lasted 4 to 6 days, during which time their mates would go into a rut and attempt to spawn small pups.
Mateless shewolves or non-dominant mateless males, also have similar cycles, but mateless dominant males only enter a rut once a year, at the end of winter, or when another mateless werewolf in heat gets too close.
A werewolf in a rut was very dangerous, loose in a pack, but there was nothing more dangerous than an Alpha in a rut.
For all that, Alex had installed all possible protection in his room too, and the pack was grateful.
"Alpha Alexander, we just let a small rogue into the territory and we need your help to defend the packlend from a group of rogues who were chasing her."As soon as he receives the maidlink, Alex contacts Micky and some warriors and runs to the border in feral form."We are on our way. Hold on guys.”When rogues see such formidable wolves arriving, they tuck their tails between their legs and run away whimpering.- Where's Rogue? - Alex asks the border patrols.- She headed towards the orchards. She was small and skinny. She looked so scared as she passed us that I don't think she even saw us. Alpha pardons, but we didn't have the heart to grab her and throw her out. We all know what those dogs intended to do to the poor little girl.- Well done guys. We're going to look for her.In feral form, they try to locate her scent, and some warriors end up surrounding her near the apple trees. She had shifted into human form, and she was naked and completely terrified.When she feels surround
Kat was ready. Her stomach was ready to be full too, it rumbled with hunger.She blushes but Rivem tells her that when they go down, it will be time for dinner.- You look beautiful, my angel.- Will Alexander like it? - she asks, blushing.- O my sweet. Your mate will like you regardless of your appearance. But, of course, he will appreciate you much more this way, showing your true beauty. Look at yourself in the mirror.She looks at River, and following her indication, goes to the mirror and looks at herself.The person she ordinarily saw in the reflection of the water, when she had the chance to be near a river, had nothing to do with the figure looking back at her now.Her hair pulled back, with small loose strands that fell to the side of her face, made her emerald green eyes stand out. The skin was clean and rosy. The white dress she wore, clean and without a single tear, fitted perfectly to her narrow waist, and the green sandals, the color of her hair ribbon, matched her eyes
Katniss Redwood might be a princess without a pack and raised like a rogue, but she really did look like a squirrel, stuffing her mouth until the food spilled out. Everyone was staring at her with a smile, and when she saw it, she put down the food, really flushed.- Don't worry about them. They've never seen someone so small eat so much, but I know you barely eat before, so please, eat until your belly's full. You have to get your physique healthy, because you're too skinny to have pups.- Mother! - scolds Alex, when he sees Kat cringe when hearing about pups.- Well, don't get involved in women's conversations. - His mother answers, making Kat laugh.She picks up the food again, but eats more slowly, and uses the cutlery instead of her hands, as she sees the others doing. She doesn't need to run to eat. Now she had a home and was safe. She could even eat whenever she was hungry.Micky was looking at Kat with a silly smile and Alex contacted him by maidlink with a serious expression.
It was 3 am, and everyone in the packhouse was asleep, when the metallic sound of a car hitting something woke them up.The Alpha and his family, as well as Kat and other members of the pack, went down to the street to see what was going on.A car was smoking from having slammed into the packhouse's thick walls, and inside, with his head buried in the airbag, was Micky, covered in blood and with glass embedded in his skin. Alex ran to the car door, and with his inhuman strength, manages to rip the door off and free his friend. He takes him out of the car, and runs to the pack hospital, followed by everyone.As soon as he enters, he is greeted by the doctor and some nurses, who take the inanimate beta into the treatment room.Everyone waits for news. Kat sits down next to Alex. With the skirt of her nightshirt, she wipes off Alex's bloodied hands, who is visibly agitated.- Micky is strong, he'll be fine. - Alex's father says, trying to lighten the mood.- Where did he come from, and i
Micky walks into the room and drops the fake smile he had on his face. He throws the rest of the toast in the trash, undresses and goes to shower.When the water falls on him, he sighs with relief, and cleans his body of last night's remains. He gets out and wraps a towel around his waist, brushes his teeth, and runs his fingers through his hair. Leaving the bathroom, he sits on the bed with his head down.When there is a knock on the door, he's startled. He hadn't noticed the time pass, but he had been in that position for some time.- It's opan. - he says without moving.- Are you still undressed? - Alex asks in astonishment.- I fell asleep. - Micky lies, with a smile.- I need to ask you something - Alex says, sitting on Micky's bed. - Do you like Kat?Micky narrows his eyes and glares at his friend.- Of course I like Kat. She's your mate and my Luna. Why are you asking that? Did I do something that upset her? She complained about me?- No - Alex says, laughing. – You didn't unde
Micky takes a pack car. His car was destroyed, and not even worth fixing. He would have to buy another one, but for now, the van would do.He takes off for the human city and on to his favorite pub. Border guards see him pass and bow to him.When he enters the pub, he goes to the counter, where his friend and owner of the pup, was also a barman. He greets him.- Micky, here again? I've got your drink ready, you want the vodka, or you'll have a regular drink.- I want the vodka. – he says, putting some dollars on the counter. The man grabs the money and gives him the bottle.- I don't want to drink here. – Micky says, looking tired and sad.The friend reaches into his pocket and pulls out the keys to the back office, which Micky takes and leaves. Before Micky disappears, the man asks him:- Don't you want company today?Micky smiles at his friend and asks with a mocking voice:- Why? You're offering?- Jesus, hell no. I like my tight ass as it is. I'm just amazed that you're going with
When Micky wakes up he looks around confused. The last thing he remembers was being in the pub office. Had he got in the car and gone home?He looks at the clock and is scandalized by himself. It was almost 10 am, and he always gets up at 5 am.He gets out of bed, clutching his head, which hurts like hell. Go to the bathroom, lift the toilet lid and relieve his bladder.Then he gets into the shower, washes himself and does all the other morning rituals.After getting dressed, he leaves the room and slowly walks down the stairs, towards the kitchen.He enters the empty kitchen, takes a cup of coffee, and, with the cup in his hand, opens the fridge.- Looking for breakfast? – Alex asks, as he enters the kitchen and sits down on a bench.- Ya. Overslept. I missed breakfast.- You have a plate in the microwave. I had it saved for you.Micky grins, opens the fridge and pulls out a plate full of scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon.Alex gets up and goes to the toaster. He puts some bread slic
The friends laugh and from the side, with his head in his hand, the beta looks at the two friends.- I want to see “Pretty Woman”. Kat will like it.- Again? Let's see “Fast X” first.- Kat, my friend who is a girl, do you want to see a love story or cars racing on the road?- Hey, that's not fair. It's not just cars racing on the road. - Alex says with a pout.- Baby, I want to see the love story first, - Kat says, with a giggle.- Fine. – Alex replies, taking a cola from the bag and giving it to Kat and two beers, which he opens while Macky takes the command and forces, victorious, Alex to watch the same movie for the twentieth time.Alex's bed was huge. The 3 could sleep there without touching each other, but Macky snuggles at the foot of the bed. Leaving Alex and Kat side by side.They eat the snacks and drink the drinks. And they end up seeing "Wall-E" to Alex's despair and Kat and Micky's happiness.During the course of the night, Kat changes positions and lies down next to Mack
