Rune.

The whole pack had been buzzing with excitement over the Elect Ritual coming up in three days. It had been all everyone could talk about. Well, I wouldn’t particularly know about everyone in the pack since I still wasn’t allowed to step out of the pack house, but it was all everyone in the pack house could talk about, from the Omegas to guards, to warriors to officials who poured in and out of the house for various meetings and what not. When the officials came, I was subjected to the confines of my cozy room, staying in it until they all left, courtesy of Alpha Kane, of course. He kept me hidden from view, and according to Soph, it was for my good, for my safety. I understood a little why she said it was for my safety, but it didn’t stop the pinch of disappointment I felt at her defending him. I told myself that it was only normal for Soph to defend Alpha Kane because she was the Beta female of the pack, and while there was no Luna, she answered directly to the Alpha, but a sma

    Rune.“Confirmed by who? Who said I was dead?” Rachael took a step back. No, several steps back with Jummy right beside her, exchanging panicked glances. “It was all the pack could talk about for days,” she rushed the words. “No names were mentioned,”“I’m not dumb, Rune. I am capable of putting two and two together. You were the only out-of-place wolf in the pack house,” she folded her arms and smirked.“And from the way people spoke about it, everyone could tell it wasn’t an omega that died. You had no reason to be there, so it was easy to think Alpha Kane got bored of you and decided to end your miserable life,” she scoffed and flattened out the nonexistent creases on her white sundress that exposed way more than her long creamy legs. She took a step forward.“Now that you’re here, let me ask you,” she took another step forward, her dark eyes digging holes into my skin. “What the hell are you still doing in the pack house?” One more step and she’d be in my face. I took a step b

    Rune.Sneaking out of the pack house was way easier than Soph and I expected it would be considering we made preparations for the excuses we’d make if we were caught and various other things, but in the end, we left the house through the front door, without even the tiniest bit of resistance from the guard wolves standing around. Alpha Kane was not home and not even Soph, whose mate left with him, knew where he went, and she didn’t seem to care. All she wanted to do was “get drunk and pass out till the next morning,” her words not mine, and it seemed to be our slogan for the night. I had an inkling that one of the reasons Soph agreed to come with me was because she thought I was heartbroken and needed some release from alcohol, which was funny. After all, that was something we knew only humans did. Wolves didn’t drink alcohol to mend a broken heart, as violent creatures, they went to hunt for large animals they wouldn’t hunt for on a normal day to expel the hurt. I guess that was why

    Rune.“GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF HER!” I’d heard that line before, and the moment it was uttered, it changed my life… for the worse. I couldn’t stop the burst of laughter at the irony. The arms around me tightened even harder and even though I couldn’t breathe well, it felt nice to be held like this. I looked up at the person holding me and saw deep black eyes and red hair. I blinked. I didn’t notice the lanky wolf had such an attractive face. Another giggle broke out of me. He smelled like mint on a cold night. I liked it.It must’ve been the alcohol in my system that made me reach out for his face and trace the line of his jaw. Red Hair’s eyes softened, and a little smile tugged at his strawberry-coloured lips. “Woah,“Fucking hell!” I heard another angry outburst before I pulled away from Red Hair and into the familiar musky scent. Angry green eyes stared down at me with tendrils of his black hair covering some of it. Another wolf and an even more attractive face. I smiled. “W

    Kane.“MINE”Her possessive declaration filled my mind, replaying over and over like a broken record. I paced back and forth in my room letting the memory of her teeth in my skin take over. “I told you to call it off countless times but you wouldn’t listen to me. Maybe you’ll listen to our mate,” Ky’s mocking voice interrupted hers for a split second. “I can’t call it off just because she asked me to. There are more than a thousand things wrong with her. She can’t hunt, she doesn’t have one combat bone in her tiny body,” “I can tell you what she has though. She has a Luna bone!”“Ky!”“What? You heard her declaration!” My pulse quickened with forbidden longing. An animalistic hunger had coursed through me the moment she sank her teeth into my neck. I hated how helpless she rendered me at that moment with nothing but her hot breath fanning my neck. I would’ve offered her my heart on a platter if she asked for it, and the realization of how true that was forced me into staying the f

    Rune.I thought I would feel a disconnect in my body when I stepped out of pack territory, but it felt the same way it felt yesterday when Soph and I snuck out for alcohol. There was nothing special about it. I hadn’t even realized we’d stepped out yet. I had to check to be sure we were out, and when it was confirmed, Kimi and I unconsciously let out breaths of relief.Our eyes met, and we chuckled. We hadn’t said a word to each other since we met at the pack house because I knew wolves. There was nothing that got past one wolf’s listening ear. Any talks about our movements would’ve been heard, and we would get caught and most likely be punished for trying to leave on the most important night the pack has had in decades. “We’ve overcome the hardest part,” I smiled down at Kimi, who nodded eagerly and looked up. “I feel the goddess is pissed at us for leaving tonight,” Kimi whispered and pointed to the sky. I looked up. Since I was born, I have witnessed all kinds of things that wer

    Rune.I could not answer Alpha Kane’s question, and he didn’t seem like he cared for my answer anyway as he swooped me into his arms, slightly pressing my head against his chest. I was still shell-shocked from what had just happened and how I almost lost my life for the third time in less than a month. I let my body relax into the relief that flowed out of his body into mine—basking in the sweet, soft fabric of his coat that added to my comfort, although it smelled like him mixed with blood. The blood of the wolf he’d just killed.From the way his wicked eyes hardened when he looked at me a little over a minute ago, I knew he had a lot of things to say to me concerning my behaviour. I had disrespected his command to not leave the pack, and worse, I ended up in danger. But he showed up, once more like he’d been doing since our fates intertwined together on that one sunny morning. Zarah purred with a satisfied smile sitting on her face and dreamy eyes.Zarah’s behavior clicked a tiny f

    Rune. My mouth hung open at the declaration as though it was my first time hearing about it, matching the shocked faces around me. Behind me stood the moon, clear and bright, announcing to the entire pack that I was exactly who they’d been waiting for: the Alpha’s mate.“That’s not possible,” a voice said from beside me. It belonged to one of the “chosen” females.“It can’t possibly be her. She’s a nobody,” she shook her head. I stared at her long black hair that framed her face, flowing loosely with the wind behind her. I had never seen her before; I didn’t even know her name, but she knew I couldn't be the Alpha’s fated mate. No doubt she had hoped it would be her, but then all the other females that stood beside me thought it would somehow be them. The other girls, Rachael included, made sounds of agreement, but all seemed to cease when Alpha Kane stepped down slowly from the altar, and his eyes glowed with a savage inner fire as he walked silently. I sucked in a breath and held

    Rune.I found out days later that my training was by no means a punishment. The real punishment was Soph being so close and not speaking to me. I thought she was going through a rough time and needed some space on her own, but I found she was all smiles with Marian and even Kimi, who, by the way, was too excited to join me for the training. According to her, Alpha Kane had summoned her and told her that if she wanted to be by my side or live in the pack house at all, she had to do something about her weak bones. Soph was our trainer; she was strict and very strong. Those rumors about her started to feel true. She was rigorous and firm, barking out commands without a smile on her face, even when I cried out in pain. Marian and Kimi saved me that day. It was later revealed to me that the training had been to strengthen my body so I’d have enough stamina to perform a customary dance as an offering to Alpha Kane and the pack during the feast. It was right of Alpha Kane and Soph to arran

    Rune. I stilled as I watched Kane fall to his knees, covered in his blood and others, and more flashes of my dream engulfed me.But things were supposed to be different. We changed our fate, he was supposed to save me and take me back with him to our territory, so why?I looked up to the sky, and the full moon stared back at me, but the more I stared at it, the more I felt as though it was coming to me. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain all over my body, and cracks as though my bones were breaking. “Zarah! What is happening?” I yelled out, but Zarah remained silent. I didn’t know what was happening until my claws began to lengthen, and white fur emerged from my skin, coating my entire body. “We are shifting,” Zarah finally said, “and I will end this!” She added and I watched as she lunged at Black, growling dangerously at him. “Rune!” He called out, but Zarah wasted no time in biting off one of his limbs, giving him no choice but to shift. We ran around the pack in search of my fathe

    Rune. Black had arrived shortly after to show me to my room, claiming I’d have more time to talk with my father at dinner because he wanted me to rest since I was pregnant.I didn’t want to leave my father, but I was grateful for the solitude the room provided because I could finally think. I replayed everything my father said to me, picking out the most. My father was innocent, and he knew where my mother and sister were kept, which meant we had to be careful if we didn’t want to be caught. When my father said Black planned to kill him and force me to stay with him, I believed him instantly, because a person who could conceal his real identity to carry out various plans was dangerous and was capable of doing plenty of damage. Before we parted, my father had told me to find a way to contact Kane because he was the only one who could save us, but I doubted I had such skill. I had never initiated a mind link with Kane when we were in the same territory, talk more of doing so while

    Rune. Black had suggested we visit my father, claiming that it would help me make a better decision; the decision to go to him. I was so confused, and numb that I couldn’t even cry or scream, instead, I sat stiffly on Black’s back, laying out my thoughts and thinking about what my next course of action would be. It was then I recalled my dream. My dream had some truths to it, like how I’d seen my father with Black, and some Elders, while the entire Shadow Moon pack was wiped away. “I know you’ve missed your father, so I knew this would warm your heart,” I heard Black say, but I was not bothered by him. I didn’t know what was happening, but I knew I couldn’t do anything until I heard all the sides of the story, the most important side being my father’s.Black ran for a while and stopped at the border of territory nearly thirty minutes later. My brows knitted in confusion as I recalled that the nearest pack to Shadow Moon pack was Pearl Crest, and if I was right then that meant Bla

    Rune. I woke to the gentle warmth of sunlight filtering through the small window of the cabin. Blinking away sleep, I stretched and sat up, realizing I was still in Black's cabin. The events of last night came rushing back to me—the unexpected reunion with Black, the cozy cabin, the little talk we had. However, when I noticed the sun shining brightly, I realized I had slept in and Black did not bother to wake me.Frowning, I slipped out of bed and padded to the door, intending to find Black and ask him to let me leave. To my surprise, he was nowhere to be found. A sense of unease settled in my chest as I searched the cabin, finding only silence and emptiness.Resigned, I located a pen and paper on a nearby table and hastily scribbled a note:Black,I appreciate your hospitality, if you’re reading this it means I’ve gone. I’ll see you some other time.Rune.I folded the note and placed it on the kitchen counter, intending to leave immediately. But as I approached the door, I realized

    Kane. The night air was thick with tension as I returned to Shadow Moon Pack after my secret mission. The moon hung low in the sky, casting a pale silver glow over the familiar grounds that now felt haunted by the feeling that something was wrong, but I deduced that it was my finding that made me feel that way. My mind raced with the revelations from my short trip to Pearl Crest, where I found they were the ones behind the charms and wolfsbane plaguing my territory. On my way home, I had made plans of what I would do and how to go about ending that pack and everyone in it for good, but upon entering the pack house, I found Soph, Jett, and Kimi gathered in the living room, their expressions somber and troubled. My eyes swept over them, dread pooling in my stomach. “What is going on?” I demanded, my voice low and urgent.No one spoke for a tense moment, their silence deafening. "Where is Rune?" I repeated, my voice rising with each word.Jett shifted uncomfortably, avoiding my gaze

    Rune. “Black?”The cool evening air whispered through the dense trees as I stared at Black, my senses on high alert. Scanty rays of sunlight filtered through the branches, casting shadows on the forest floor. It was unusual to find anyone out here, let alone Black. He stood before me, tall and imposing, a smile in his eyes. "What are you doing here?"His smile widened, his eyes a mixture of relief and uncertainty. "I wanted to see you, Rune. I... I wasn't sure how, but then you appeared, as though the goddess herself guided you to me.""In Shadow Moon territory?" I raised an eyebrow, eyeing him warily.He nodded solemnly. "Yes. I had to see you."“What are you doing here though?” he asked, his eyes traveling up and down my body. I shifted uncomfortably in my tank top and black shorts. I ran out of the pack house without thinking and ended up leaving in such little clothing."I... I came out for some air," I stammered, feeling foolish.His gaze lingered on me, his expression unreada

    Rune. A sigh escaped my lips when I no longer felt Kane’s presence in the pack; a dreadful feeling of emptiness settled in immediately, as though it was waiting for his departure. However, I had to wipe the sadness from my face when I headed downstairs nearly two hours later, taking note of the omega’s cleaning the pack house instead. Kane was away on a mission and I had a mission of my own; to track down the wolf sending those notes to me, and to make sure no one could tell Kane was gone.“Good morning,” An Omega greeted, making her way up the stairs.“Are you going up to clean my room?” I asked her, and she turned, long black hair swaying behind her before she nodded.“Don’t bother. Alpha is still sleeping,” I told her, pulling off the best nonchalant attitude I could muster so she wouldn’t suspect me, and thankfully she didn’t.Everything was going well, and no one came to ask if they could clean the room again, but it seemed our luck ran out when a group of elders came to seek K

    Kane. “I hate to say it but her dreams bother me,” I said with a deep breath, “Especially when it shouldn’t,” I added, running my fingers through my hair.“Does it bother you because you think it could happen or because she’s the one who had those dreams?” Jett asked with a raised brow, and I frowned at him. We were lodged in his house, an hour after I had put my mate to bed. He had opted to drink, but I was more worried about the pack and Rune’s dream to indulge him, and now he was just trying to get on my nerves.“Are you crazy?” “Not quite,” he replied with a little laugh and I shook my head before I turned serious.“On a more serious note, I think I’ll have to visit the Fay soon, to hear more about this dream my mate had. I think we’re missing something very important here,” A sigh escaped my lips at the same time Jett nodded, taking a sip out of his alcohol right after.“If you’re making plans to see her, then that means you accept her? I thought you’d turn to your precious pri

    Rune. “Talk to me,” Kane inched closer, staring intently at me. “I don’t know how accurate I am, or if this will mean anything to you, but I had a bad dream that the pack was set on fire, and a lot of wolves died.”My words were met with silence and Kane’s head hung low.“Did you hear me?” I tilted my head to search his face. “Fire you say?”I nodded. “I’m sure Soph has told you about the charms we found in the pack?” I nodded, patiently waiting for him to explain to me the relationship between the two things. “I’m forced to believe there’s a new pack targeting us, and they work closely with witches.”The seriousness of his words settled in and I found myself sitting up straight, my hands in his.“But what do you believe?”“I believe Pearlcrest is behind it. I mean it makes no sense that it’s a new pack because all the leads are somehow connected to Pearlcrest but yet, I’m being told something entirely different.”“Soph told me they are the ones with sightings of more charms?”H
