Chapter 58.

last update Last Updated: 2024-03-09 06:18:58

“This can’t be happening”. I wept to myself as I led across the cold hard floor. My body was shivering from the lack of nutrients and daylight. The poison was attacking my human cells and parts of my memory were already beginning to fade and mesh into one timeline. I couldn’t remember anything about the fire, just seeing the burning flames, I couldn’t remember my first day at the camp, and only snippets remained of when I first shifted. My two forms were a war, I’d suddenly feel an urge to attack, and I’d try to fight against it, which only left me even weaker and in tears.

“This can’t be it!” I murmured to myself. My humanity was seizing to exist, but for now I could still feel the pain of what was happening to Leo, Izzy and Dante, and the overwhelming love I had for them, and even though it was agony, I held onto it. Clinging to my emotions would slow down the change, and I hoped it would be enough to still feel compassion and a sense of morality when it came to being used by Zach.

    It was a slow few hours as blood dripped from my wrist and stained the ground, and even though I still felt hazy and weak, my mind felt clearer, and I could stand without my legs buckling. I tore a piece of my shirt and wrapped it around the wound, not being able to heal it myself, it was my only other option to stop an infection. I heard the banging of the outside door and I quickly led down and closed my eyes, pretending to still be in the same state Zach last saw me in, too frail to even open my eyes. I heard his footsteps and the sound of the cell door clanging. His footsteps moved closer, and I could feel him hovering over me. I let out a fake exhausted breath, but the voice I heard surprised me, and I peeped through my lashes to see who was in the cell with me. “You’re not so scary”. He chuckled, and it definitely wasn’t Zach. This man had a bald head, a fresh cut across his lip and half of his left

    I felt incredibly uneasy all night as I tried to rest in the dug out fox hole, Zach had returned a few hours later to find I was gone. The constant thudding of feet running past, the shouting of demands to “fucking find her and drag the bitch back” echoed through the silence of the forest. I’d hear him growl loudly in frustration the longer time passed without any of his men being successful.Any time one of them ran past, I was so tempted to reach out, grab them by the ankles and pull them into the hole to kill them, but all night my body kept trembling and dazing in and out from the effects of the mushrooms and the poison attacking each other, and without the special herbs my grams used, the poison wouldn’t be completely erased from my body.My eyes suddenly shot open to the sounds of the birds chirping nearby and the daylight shining through the gaps of the brambles. I inhaled deeply, marvelling in the delight of how strong and fresh my lungs felt. I stretched my legs and they felt

    I stayed in my wolf form as I went from room to room to find the others, but so far apart from a small dirty kitchen and mismatched beds in all the rooms, I hadn’t found anything that would lead me to the nightwolves, or my friends and Leo.I could feel my frustration and worry start to boil as I rushed through each room again, tearing and hauling things around in anger. I flung the beds across the rooms and tore through the kitchen, fear thumping in my heart that he hadn’t even kept them here, he only bought them on the days he wanted to taunt me… Did he have some other secret building he was holding them in? I wanted them in front of me right now! I wanted to get every person out of this dark, dank, disgusting place and out into the daylight and fresh air! They deserved their freedom today, the same freedom as I now had!I panted and growled, sniffing the floor for any of their scents, if they weren’t kept here, at least I know they had been here, and I might be able to track them.

    The way I had pushed my wolf and myself today was exhilarating. To have gone from a weak, hopeless prisoner, spending her days lying on a dirty floor, to this!.... to who I really am! To be able to breathe in the crisp forest air that had a blissful aroma of blooming wildflowers and earthy mud that squelched beneath my worn down shoes. But so far, I had been the only one able to enjoy our newfound freedom.After getting everyone out of that wretched place, I had reluctantly gone back inside needing to find something to help me move everyone further away. To my shock and disgust, I found a stack of makeshift carts that they had obviously used to bring all the nightwolves here. There were patches of dried blood, claw marks and black fur stuck in between the gaps of the wood planks. I hated to use them again, to lay all their bodies onto the muck and crust, but it was the only way to move them all together.I had spent an entire night in my wolf form pulling them along with the attached

    I had barely slept the night, constantly listening out for any noises nearby, my mind constantly imagining Zach or what was left of his men watching and waiting to pounce and drag us away again. Then I’d be paranoid anytime Leo’s breaths seemed weaker, or his heart beat slowed. I spent many of the hours resting my head on his chest, needing the reassurance of his heart beat to tell me he was still holding on… he’d be ok…. He had to be! I wrung out the cloth with water and gave it to Dante to bathe Izzy. He was managing to sit up properly today, and he was eager to be able to stand by the end of the day, as he looked over at the stream and craved to cover himself head to toe and lay beneath the water. As he lovingly tended to her, I went from plant to plant, picking handfuls of yarrow, washed it, then crushed it against a flat pebble, intending to use it for everyone’s wounds. I started with Leo as his looked close to infection. One gash after another, I covered each one with the mix

    I almost cried, and I probably could have if I wasn’t extremely dehydrated, but there it was…. I could see it just in the distance. The gates of Lundberg, just ahead on the trail. Our refuge, our ray of sunshine beckoning me towards it through the grey clouds and heavy rain.My shoes and ankles slopped in the drenched mud, as I had to yank my foot up out of it with each step, dragging the wheels of the carts through it’s slush. My throat rasped and groaned for air as black fuzzy spots distorted my vision.“It’s Lundberg!”. I heard Dante shout from behind me. He had tried to help me with the carts but was still too weak and almost collapsed after only one mile.“Lund….ber… berg”. I tried to reply, but my voice barely came out in a whisper.I knew I was getting closer, but the more I pushed myself along, the further it seemed to feel. My head started to wobble back and forth, flashing in and out of a blank, dark daze. I kept trying to snap out of it and focus on the gates. The gates, ge

    Wayne took me down a long white washed corridor that led to the back of the hospital, away from any other patient’s.“We wanted to give them all some privacy to recover, and down here they won’t be disturbed by people coming and going”. He told me as he stopped at one of the white doors.He opened it quietly and I stepped in to see all eight wolves sleeping in individual beds. They were all still in their wolf form, and they were so still, they looked almost dead!“How have they been so far?” I asked as I walked past each bed to take a closer look They were all hooked up to medicated drips and bandages had been wrapped around their paws just like the ones on my feet.“The drips are to administer some nutrients and fluids. Apparently they were extremely dehydrated, and severely malnourished. I don’t know what he had been feeding them, but they look as though they haven’t eaten in weeks”. “If he fed them the same as what he gave me, then it was mainly just chunks of spoiled gristly mea

    “Look at you!”. I cooed as I pulled back to look at her. “Welcome back to the land of the living”. “It’s so good to be back”. She said, managing a light chuckle.“How do you feel?” I asked as Dante pulled up another chair for me to sit on.“Well, we’re all alive and we’re here, so, I couldn’t be happier”. She spoke in a croaky voice. “Thank you for everything”. She said with a tender look as she put her hand on mine.“You don’t need to thank me”. I told her, still feeling like I could have avoided this for all of us.“Raven, you got us out of there!”. She said insistently. “You are the reason why we’re all here and safe now. We owe you our lives”. “Too right!”. Dante chimed in.“You owe me nothing! I should have been able to see past his façade”. I replied remorsefully.“Don’t you even dare start with that”. Izzy spoke firmly. “I knew him longer than you, and I didn’t know who he really was either. So if you’re going to blame yourself for not seeing his true colours, then we’re all

    “I have something for you all”. I grinned mysteriously at the women. We had just finished another training session, which I had kept up with for the last six weeks of becoming Luna to reassure them that my dedication to them wouldn’t change.“You have something… what?” Abigail asked curiously as they all grouped together in front of me.I walked over to my bag that I always stuffed a towel and change of shirt into, but today I had something else… something I knew they had been wanting since we first started our sessions.I took out the document and held it out for them to see. Their eyes all wandered along it, but I could see the puzzlement in their faces.“What is it?” Clarissa questioned as they all looked at me.“Its what you all wanted”. I smiled. “As Luna, I gave the proposal to your new alpha, and…. “ I paused to build up their anticipation. “And your alpha, was more than happy to sign it off. So, from now on, any female of Whitlock that does the appropriate training can become

    “Wow look at our little girl”. Mother cooed as she and my father beamed at me in my wedding dress. “Soon to be a Luna”. She sniffled as father subtly wiped a tear that was about to escape his eye.“She’s not so little now, is she?” Father commented as he let out a heavy bittersweet exhale. “Our little girl… going to be the Luna”. He said as he shook his head trying to accept how much had changed. “You have come so far, my girl, all on your own strength”. “She really has, hasn’t she”. Mother agreed with a watery smile as I grinned bashfully at them, swaying my dress side to side, listening to the sound of the material swooshing.On the surface I looked confident and excited, but in reality my hands were sweating and so were my legs. I couldn’t wait to marry Leo, but every member of our pack were going to be at the ceremony today and to celebrate with us afterward. Having all of that kind of attention and eyes on me was something I still wasn’t used to, and in a way, I kind of missed t

    I stepped out of the bathroom with a towel secured around my chest as I dried my hair with another. I inwardly smiled as through the balcony glass doors, I could see the sun was beginning to set, so I walked out to the edge and rested my arms on the balcony wall looking out at Whitlock. Apart from a few children running and laughing on their way home from the lake, it all felt so warm, peaceful and safe. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath, savouring the cool spring air and my heart thumped cheerfully at how happy I was to finally be back home.I had arrived back late last night, and the first thing I did as rush to Leo’s room and woke him up with a kiss on his cheek, and the moment he opened his eyes, he wrapped his arms around me, pulled me onto the bed and frantically tore each other’s clothes off from the yearning arousal we had the moment we were back in each other’s arms. The next morning, I surprised my parents for breakfast and told them all about how Clemonte was comin

    Nine weeks had come and gone… Nine weeks I had once again been away from home, and I was missing it more and more each day. Me and Leo had been able to speak twice a week on the phone, and I knew by his voice he was feeling the same as I was about us being apart for so long. But with his own duties, his training and taking over my classes with the she-wolves, there was just no time for him to visit.I had many conversations with Caleb and Wayne, and it was decided that Jonah would come to Clemonte with Wayne’s sister, Diana and her mate Corbin in just another weeks time. According to Wayne, most of Corbin’s family had since moved on to other packs and they had already been contemplating a new chapter in their lives, so it didn’t take as much persuasion as Wayne had thought. Jonah would help them for six months to settle in and learn their new roles as alpha and Luna to Clemonte, and with a son and daughter of their own, if they chose to mate with one of Clemonte’s members, that would

    For the following week, me and my night wolves had taken over the rule of Clemonte. When Robert had killed James and we locked up his people, I spoke to both Caleb and Wayne about what had happened, and I was surprised by how relieved they sounded of his demise. But with no heirs, they had both asked that we begin to lead Clemonte back into shape until they could find someone to be its next ruler.We had no intentions of being cruel to them, neglect them or bully them whilst we were here, but from the way James and his pack house lived, there were clearly no strict rules, authority or structure. James always lived behind his wall that surrounded the pack house with his guards, their wives and whatever women they had become fond of and made the cut to living within his home.It baffled us at how little the rest of his people ever saw him or had protection from him or his guards. Every day, we let his people come out three times a day for fresh air, food and water, but we always kept th

    We stormed all the way through the forest, until our tongues were hanging out of our mouths, and we were panting for breath. Luckily for our breed, the desire to protect and hunt down anyone targeting our own was stronger than the ache in our legs and the hunger in our stomach’s.As soon as we had Clemonte in sight, it gave us even more of a push to run faster. We sped along, growling deep in our chests as we stormed through his broken fence and across the field. Foolish James thought his mere wall would stop any intrusions but together as a pack we all rushed to it as a unit and smashed our bodies into it, smashing it to the floor, causing everyone outside of the pack house to scream and shout in alarm. We quickly rolled back onto our feet and began chasing all the men and women as they tried to flee or shift into their wolves. We’d grab them in our mouths, piercing their skin with our teeth, enough to cause them pain and submission but not to kill, and knocking them off their feet a

    One month later:“Another successful session everyone!” I chimed to all the women as they wiped the sweat from their foreheads and walked toward me, panting with breaths.“Are we always going to be able to train? Because I don’t think I can go back to how things were before”. Clarissa asked as the other women nodded in agreement.“Of course. We’ll continue our sessions for as long as you all want to”. I responded, noticing the hopefulness in their eyes.“Oh, good, cause I haven’t had this much fun in a long time, and now I feel like I’m… I’m”. “Powerful?” Laura finished her sentence as Clarissa tried to find the right word.“Yes! Yes, that’s it”. She exclaimed. “I feel like I don’t have to be so scared now if any threat comes to our border again”. “Yea, me too”. All the other women agreed in unison“That’s amazing! That’s exactly why we’re doing these classes, it’s what I want you all to feel”. I smiled, seeing the passion in their eagerness to train.“But is there more?” Jodie quiz

    You really think they could handle training alongside men?” Caleb asked with a doubtful frown as I filled out the progress of each she-wolf on their training forms.“Yes, I do”. I answered adamantly as I glanced up from the paperwork, but his frown didn’t shift.“But they’ve only been training for three weeks”. “Yes, but you should see them! They’re so determined to improve. They bring their A – game to every session. They’re honestly so skilled already”. “I don’t know”. Caleb sighed as he signed off the schedule sheets for the patrol shifts.I slumped my shoulders in annoyance that he wouldn’t even attend one session to see just how incredible the women of our pack were. For once they were given the opportunity to show their capability, and I was the first to say how impressed I was. “Could you at least consider it? Just think of all the new opportunities it would open up for them. They could help patrol the borders or become palace guards! They’d be so good at it, and I can see ho

    I dragged him through the dirt, along the sharp stones, branches and thorns as he winged as my teeth still dug into his flesh and begged for me to let him go, but I knew a man like James and his pack needed a strong enough warning so that me and the other night wolves could be free to roam.The rest of the men all whimpered and didn’t try to retaliate as we led them all back to their land. We finally reached the border at first light as the ground beneath us now lay frosty and the grass was damp but the forest around us smelt fresh and earthly rich.We stopped at their dilapidated fence, and I glanced back at the night wolves to make some noise and they all howled together to alert Clemonte of our arrival. Moments later, James and a gathering of his men came out from his pack house walls and stopped at the top of the field, looking at us with apprehension. I dropped the man from my mouth and growled and he didn’t hesitate to try and scramble to his feet as he clutched his shoulder. He
