"Please, stay awake," Kendrick shouted as he tapped the girl's face, she was slipping away. She had lost so much blood, he feared she was going to die before she could be treated.
"Hey ... Hey... Stay with me," he whispered again. The lady who came to call him from the office stood beside him, holding her hands as they wheeled her into the Pack hospital. She was rushed into the theatre, and only then did Kendrick notice the girl was crying.
He moved to her and tapped her back, he didn't understand why she was crying but he just wanted her to stop crying. She looked at him and sniffled.
"Is that how you fight in your Pack?" She asked, a strange look in her eyes.
"No..." He assured her. He had never seen Helen that wild, biting someone who was already hurting wasn't something she should do. He taught her that. He glanced around the room to see if she followed them in but he didn't see her.
"Her name is Jasmine," the girl filled him in. He looked at her and nodded.
"I thought you were new, how'd you know her?" He asked.
"She's my sister!" She snapped at him and he moved back startled.
She was hurt, it was her first training and her sister had been beaten to a pulp.
He placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her onto a chair. She dropped into it heavily as she covered her face with her hands, sobbing so hard her body shook.
He tapped her back softly. Allowing her to cry, he had a lot of questions to ask but he needed her to calm down. They stayed that way till she finally stopped crying.
He handed her a towel to clean her face which had now gotten puffy and red. She blew her nose loudly into it and stuffed it into her back pocket. She glanced at him and hissed.
"Now, you want to talk?" She asked with a scoff.
He remembered she had tried to communicate at the fight field, he shook his head and smiled. She sure was petty.
"I'm sorry about that. I was so focused on watching Helen."
"She's not your mate, why were you so engrossed with her?" She asked
"I like her," Kendrick admitted innocently.
"She's a beast, why continue to fight a wounded member?"
The mention of a beast made Kendrick's stomach churn as he remembered the gory sight he had seen in the morning. He also didn't understand why she fought that way.
"It's probably stress," he muttered, covering up for her.
"Her mate's in your Pack" The lady responded so quietly he almost didn't hear her.
"And how do you know that?" He knew mates could be in different packs but you had to come in contact with them before you could smell them.
"My mum smelt him," she replied, playing with her fingers. It made no sense, only mates could smell mates. She looked like she was about to say something when the doctor walked into the room.
Kendrick stood up at the same time the lady stood up. They faced the doctor who raised his hands midway to calm them down.
"She's going to be okay, she's stopped bleeding and she's received blood transfusions so she would be fine," he stopped and as If remembering something continued, "She's not healing."
Kendrick glanced at the lady beside him, a puzzled look on his face.
"She's not healing?" He asked the doctor.
"Yes, the wounds aren't healing. We've stitched some but I decided to inform you before we stitch it all."
"She won't heal," the lady muttered sadly.
Kendrick excused the doctor and faced the lady. "Why won't she?" He asked softly
She looked down at her feet, before swallowing gently. "She has no wolf," she revealed.
That's why she hadn't transformed, Kendrick put a hand to his mouth as he took in the revelation.
"Was that why you left your Pack?"
"We didn't leave, we were banished. Our parents fought back, refusing to leave and they killed them. We escaped before they came for us. That's why we had to join your Pack." She let out with a huff.
She looked so pitiful, Kendrick suddenly felt bad for not listening to her earlier.
"That's why we wanted to learn to fight, that's why she got into the box on the first day, she's heartbroken and she knows they'd come for us," she continued.
He held her hands gently in his as he realized he hadn't asked for her name. "What's your name?"
"Kayla," she smiled as she answered.
"You're from which Pack?" If they were coming for them, the least he could do was get prepared.
"NightGlow Pack" she whispered and he gasped. That spelt trouble. Had the Alpha not made enough enquiries before allowing them in? The Alpha of her pack was one of the most brutal Alpha he knew.
"NightGlow Pack?" He repeated, hoping he had heard wrongly.
"Yes. Alpha Thorne," she muttered and he felt his heart sink.
The thunder rumbled loudly as Helen whimpered. It had become very dark, she had hidden herself after the fight. She felt bad for fighting that way. She had been stressed from running too many laps before the fight. She wanted to stay home and rest but her mum had forced her to the field saying she had to train harder.She was just going to do a little since it was a new girl she was paired with but when the girl landed a blow to her stomach. Her mum had mind-linked her telling her the Beta was watching her.She didn't want to seem like a weakling, it was a privilege that the beta taught her privately. She didn't want to bring shame to him so she transformed and charged at the girl. Helen didn't expect her not to transform, that's why she kept coming at her.It felt as if she was in rage, she suddenly couldn't see clearly as she tasted the girl's blood. It tasted sweet and she wanted more, she didn't know what happened, and only when she saw Kendrick's blood did she calm down.The thu
The moon was very bright, Steph noted as she made her way to the stream. The forest was strangely quiet as the wind blew slowly. She whistled as she made her way, pushing the branches of the large trees away with her palm. It's been a while since she went swimming in the river. Her wolf growled quietly and she smiled. It could smell the waters, Werewolves were known for their strong sense of smell. The town was quiet, everyone was still scared from the killings that had been happening in the land. There'd always been the death of a wolf every full moon in the last six months. No one knew the cause of their deaths other than the fact that it had been the work of a wolf. It was definitely a wolf from a different pack, wolves didn't kill in their packs, and the killings had stopped for a while since the security had heightened. The Alpha had commanded watches doubled and watchers increased. Her wolf growled again and she stifled a shout as she came in front of the river, it looked s
The smell filled Kendrick's nostrils before he could open his eyes. Snapping out of his slumber he sat up as his wolf struggled to come out.He sat still for a while trying to calm his wolf. "It's not here."His wolf quieted down, letting out sad whimpers as he rushed to wear his clothes. He stepped out of his house and squinted, the sun shone very brightly, and he could almost feel his skin sizzling. A glance at his wristwatch revealed it was still early in the morning, the road was bustling with people all around. Has there been another death?He stood in front of his house as he tried to pick where the smell came from. It was the river, it was close to his house so he walked hurriedly to the direction. The smell became stronger as he picked a familiar scent. Was that someone he knew?His wolf peeped, channelling its energy into his legs as he burst into a run. He arrived at the river and gasped at the number of people looking at the body. He growled deeply, registering his prese
Kendrick stormed out of the packhouse and moved to his house. He dressed up and drove to the pack's Academy. It was already full before he got in. He smiled at some students as they greeted him while he walked into the office. Being the Alpha's Beta came with a lot of responsibility. He was sitting in his office when a female student walked in. She stood over a well 5'6 ft tall and had the longest hair he had ever seen.She was new, he assured himself as he watched her walk to his table swaying her hips. She stood directly opposite him and gave him a mock bow."Hey Beta, what's up?" She drawled and he couldn't help but smile at the attempt to sound sexy. A look at her neck revealed she hadn't met her mate as it was without a mate mark. "You're new?" He asked as he arranged files on his table. She smoothed her short skirt with her hands and sat down on a chair. "Just joined the pack." Kendrick tried not to sigh, his Father had been accepting members of other packs despite warnings
