I recalled the light. The pain. The fire that coursed through my entire body and tore my stomach and abdomen to shreds. The stabbing pain of my pelvis decaying hurt so bad I lost consciousness. I lost my mind. I wanted to hold my breath and kill myself right away but I couldn't. I didn't have the strength. I didn't have the power to take control of my own life. I couldn't kill myself. I recalled the light.The light.The light that hung above me. The burning leather restraints that held me from jerking my body left, right and everywhere and saved me from banging my head on the floor. A demon overcame me or was it an angel that wanted to deliver me from this earthly body. I was ready for the last push, the last immense pain before a sweet darkness. It was the end. It was here. The poison triumphed and ruled over my body. It did its desire and purpose which was to destroy.I heard the sound I heard in the movies I used to watch with Khai. The sound of a flattened line. The sound of deat

I got out of and left the med bay. I needed to be alone.It's not like I envied Linda's gift of twins. It's not like I wished to have as many kids as my parents did. It's not like I wanted to keep Sun Wolf blood alive. It's not like I wanted any of that. But when I got into the shower, with my clothes on, I wept incredibly. I sobbed like a five-year-old and screamed as silently as I could. I wanted it. I wanted all of that. I wanted kids. I wanted twins. It was a desire that burned in me as soon as I saw Fern. She was young and full of life, something I needed. I needed someone of my blood around, I wanted kids. Even one would’ve been enough.I knew it was Yaga who brought me back.I know you brought me back so why didn't you bring back my family? Why do you keep hurting me when all I do is worship you? When all I do is give you my all. You’ve let everything be taken from me. Did you make me so you could watch my melancholic story unfold? Let me die and bring me back to kill me inside.

I woke up with a sharp pain in my wrists. My eyes opened to the glorious warmth of health and I held my breath in deep, questioning this oddity. Perhaps, the poison was playing its games with me again. It wouldn't be out of the question. Then I wondered if Malcolm was somewhere in the room, among the bodies that laid asleep on the floor of our bedroom.I turned around to face my love whose hand was still in mine. I squeezed his hand to wake him up but his hand was cold. Ice cold. Khai stayed asleep and didn't move so I sat up and found dark orbs staring at me.They watched me with the darkest eyes, sitting on their hind legs with eyes filled with sorrow and melancholy. Then I felt it. The atmosphere and the world had grown thinner. It was like something that was always there went missing in the middle of the night. I turned my attention mainly to Linda whose eyes were actually a shade darker, almost brown. Everyone was in their wolf form as Khai had instructed them to remain.Their ey

I stayed with him for hours until I saw the next sunrise. I woke up to Hannah, she used a little voice, as if afraid of waking Khai up.“Wake up, you need to eat,” she said.She stood over me, her hair in a high ponytail, her skin so clean and beautiful like it was any other day. She kept her eyes focused on me to not look at the person beside me.“What? You can’t face it?” I asked.She sighed.“Roman, please.”She rubbed her hand along my calf. I sat up and realized my hand was still wrapped around Khai’s. I turned around to face him.His eyelashes were always disgustingly long. I envied his long eyelashes. I brushed his silky hair out of his face and gave him a peck on the lips. I felt some warmth between us but I knew I was crazy. I had slept with a corpse for two nights now. When I faced Hannah she was sobbing into her hands as silently as she could. I knew then I wasn’t going anywhere. I pulled the covers open and slid back into the bed beside him.“Roman, please.”“I’ll eat when

The man was right it had been two days. Two days was not enough for me to act like it was something that was supposed to happen. I had whiplash. It was just yesterday. He kissed me, held me, and read to me. Had he known all along? When he called the whole pack here to protect me, did he know he would die that night? I couldn’t wrap my head around it.“Is that how you guys do it?”Hannah sighed and looked up at me from the table.“Do what?” she asked tiresomely.“Death? You just move on?”She shrugged. Falcon rubbed her shoulders. Her eyes were swollen, and everyone’s eyes were swollen with grief but I couldn’t buy it. I couldn’t believe they were feeling the pain I was feeling. Where was the screaming, the crying, the drama? This wasn’t just anyone. This was Khai.“What do expect us to do?” she asked.This felt like a dream. Oh, how I needed it to be a dream.I expected the world to stop and not in a superficial way, I meant literally. The earth to stop turning, the sunrise, the birds

Knock. Knock.“Go away!” I shouted.“The elders are requesting you.” Malcom’s whisper pierced through the door.He sounded tender, kind and genuine. I think he was trying to comfort me but I wanted to be left alone. Forever.The elders? What did they want from me? Probably to hate me in my face or say in ten different ways how I killed Khai. And if that Whitney woman was there, they are here to tell me crap.They are probably going to kick me out.“Roman?” His voice became softer.I quickly rubbed my face against the duvet, wore Khai’s black gown and opened the door. Malcom’s strong and tall body leaned on the frame of the door, his upper arm resting above me. The middle of his forehead grew deep as his different eyes narrowed.“What were you doing?”I walked past him and went to the living room. I was not in the mood for Malcolm, for anyone. I’d face this quickly and swiftly.I found them gathered in the living room. The curtains were drawn and they all looked at me when I entered. I

With that, I launched into the forest, following my nose. Their smell hurt and that had to end. It had to end. I was going to end them. After all they put me through I would kill them slowly.The strength I felt pulsing through my veins and the size I was at then, I could taste their blood on my tongue. I wanted to tear them to shreds, starting with every pack member and ending with dessert. Intiyago. I wanted to first tear him from limb to limb and crush his skull.Tears tore from my face in the wind, my heart still mourned and I howled painful howls as I followed my nose. Yaga and Traga must’ve given me this power to do this exact thing. This would be for everything. For my pack, for the lives they took from Traga and lastly for Khai.Navigating through the trees was hard this time, I wasn’t as small as I used to be so I could not fit into places I used to. I was bigger, stronger… an alpha? Not only was I bigger, but I was also heavier and therefore slower.A few hits from miscalcul

I could hear them just as we were a few trees from the main house.Abomination!Surely you cannot expect us to bow to a woman. This is not something we decided for ourselves; it was placed upon us. Have you lost trust in your ancestors?The last voice was Khai’s grandfather, to my surprise he was defending me. It seemed he was the only one on my side.Malcolm placed me on the ground. The sun hid behind a couple of clouds and I was still helpless as my body healed at a snail’s pace. If I had been like other wolves I would’ve healed by now. Intiyago’s head would be between my jaws. My body boiled with anger and rage and a surge of power I had no business having. This must’ve been what Khai experienced when he suddenly became the alpha.No, but that couldn’t be. I wasn’t the alpha. Firstly a foreigner, no matter how long they have assimilated to a pack, could never become an alpha but a woman... That was impossible for natives.The whole pack had been summoned, perhaps by my transformat

When the elders gathered in the living room, winter was coming to a visible end. Their eyes were still full of grief and heartache, but Raymond was as cold as stone.I told no one else about what Yaga and Khai told me to do after Audrey's reaction. I kept it to myself. Malcolm could read a difference in me but he couldn’t put a finger on it. Most of the time I avoided his advances and efforts to make something out of the proposed arrangement but I gave him no opening.My stomach turned; I could feel another war coming on.“Roman, the time has come. We understand that you may not want anything big but we will need it on paper,” Khai’s grandfather said to me.I sat alone on the single couch while everyone sat around me. This must’ve been how Khai felt when he led. All these eyes and weight on him. No wonder he was broken.My mouth remained sealed and I looked over at Malcolm who for once in one of these meetings was looking me directly in the eyes. Bold and immovable.“By the end of tom

I reached out for her and she moved her hand away. That's when I knew there was division between us."Do you know what you sound like?" she said as she glared at me.I shrugged helplessly."A colonizer.""Excuse me?" I breathed.I wasn't sure if I heard her right."I should've listened to Malcolm. You've made Malcolm a reliable source. Do you know how insane you need to be to make Malcolm sound reliable?" she shouted.The workers around us watched us and all the harvesting had stopped. Audrey saw the eyes and closed the space between us and lowered her voice."How dare you use Khai's name to justify your schemes," she said through clenched teeth."This is not my scheme Audrey. I don't want this either but Khai said-""How dare you?"Her eyes became glossy and she jabbed a finger in my chest."Doing that will eradicate everything that makes us Traga. You came in here and usurped our leader and now you

Winter covered the garden with its cold whiteness and a few months breezed past. The trees grew bare with leaves and frostbite crept up my fragile human toes.I never had to worry about these things when I spent every day and night as a wolf. My fur always kept me warm but as a human, which I spent most of my time as - I found sickness and shivering to be commonplace.They were generous with the mourning period but time was running out. I couldn't avoid the subject of marriage to Malcolm any longer. Eventually, the elders would end their kind silence and come to the house again.Intimidated and confused, I had said yes to marrying Malcolm under the condition that they would lend me the guard dogs in my fight against the Azraels. They had done that for me.This was against my moral code. Growing up, my father taught me to keep my word but then I felt Khai, heard him in my head and promised him I’d never marry Malcolm and see the plan through - my mor

It became apparent why I was here. Why it was the doorstep of the Tragas I fell upon. It was for this moment right here. Khai and I were nothing but collateral, a means to an end.I was but a small cog in the machine, a pawn in a chess game played by the gods. Traga was willing to sacrifice himself to Yaga so his children would get stronger and live longer. My blood would certainly guarantee that.After Khai left my mind and body I felt lonely. Lonelier than I’d ever been or believed was possible. I sat in the desert crying for what felt like an hour as the black hole in my chest gaped wider.I saw them looking for me in the distance and I ran to hide so I could cry all the cowardice out of me.I couldn’t continue like this anymore. I needed to take the first step. Move out of the passive and into the active.For the first time in a long time, I got on my knees and said a prayer.Give me the strength to see these plans through. Please soften the hearts of Traga Wolves so they may rece

The night went on and I left the crowd to sit alone with my fourth drink. I wanted to cry but my body felt too tired of all the sadness and pain. Also, I was tired of forcing smiles.I walked a mile off and sat on the dirt, gazing up at the moon.I’d never given the moon much thought till I came to Traga. All I cared about before was the sun and now I was of both the sun and the moon.As I stared the moon it began to glow. I kept my gaze fixed on it and I felt my blood rushing through my veins. I stood up to my feet as my heart pounded in my chest.What was happening?It went on for a while until my chest felt warm. Tears brimmed at my eyes as I felt it again. His love. His warmth, his presence glowing from inside of me.It was Khai. How?Roman. Khai?Yes. How? I laughed, a mix of joy and tears.How was this happening. I’d never felt so whole in my life. My

Ginos was a place out of town, randomly in the middle of the dessert like area. It was made of shipping containers huddled into a circle where people could sit and have drinks. They only served barbeque meats and alcohol. The air was heavy with spices, smoke and charred meat which made my mouth salivate.I couldn’t believe the Tragas had finally managed to get me off raw meat. I couldn’t imagine eating it.We joined two tables and sat together, the loudest group in the whole place. Hannah, Falcon, Jacob, Yolanda, Audrey, Malcolm, Linda and apparently Greg was coming. The idea didn’t excite me and I felt that it was disrespectful seeing as Khai was barely gone for a week and she was already going over his head.Khai never wanted Greg around them. He could do nothing about Linda’s love for him but he made it clear he didn’t want him around other wolves.I didn’t have the energy to argue and fight a losing battle. No matter what I said, Linda would justify his presence in her head. And on

The guard dogs ran ahead of me, howling in celebration. I turned my head away from the corpses and tried to convince myself I was walking back from somewhere else. But I couldn’t forget what I did, not while I had his skull in my mouth.The howls filled the air all the way back to Traga land. Outside the house many wolves in their human forms had gathered, ready to receive us. They were so excited to see us, cheering and joyful that the reign of Azraels was finally over. I placed Intiyago’s head in the middle of the garden and everyone erupted in joy.Where was my joy, I wondered. I couldn’t feel a thing.Intiyago haunted me for so long, made my life a living hell and now that I had ended him I felt no joy nor sense of completion. I entered the house and phased into a human in the kitchen.My behavior offset them but they continued to cheer and celebrate outside, hoisting Intiyago’s head and parading around with it. The house was e

The world was red as I backed away, trying to shake the blood off my face. Intiyago walked slowly toward me. Prowling, Ravenous and angry but his eyes – his eyes were sympathetic.Roman, this is not what I want. His voice was soft in my head. He stopped in his tracks, his head lowered down and he licked drops of my blood which had fallen on a rock.No.But it was too late, his pink tongue wiped the rock clean and his eyes surged with a golden glow. A menacing growl ripped out of him.This is what I want!His voice was heavy again, dark and sharp. The sun healed the scratch and I could see properly again. I charged toward him and clawed at his face. Claw after claw I saw blood and more blood until his face was disfigured. He howled and jumped to the side where he rammed me into a tree. The impact almost broke my ribs but I got back up and gave him everything I had. I rammed him into the other tree and bit into his arm so hard I hit his bone.The painful howl he screamed satisfied me i

Malcolm decided to return to the funeral with a busted nose and lips. I waited on the porch for the guard dogs to appear. They said that as soon as Khai was buried we would get to go.Nothing else mattered but my vengeance, nothing at all. There was no after. I couldn’t imagine it and if I died killing all the Azraels I would be satisfied, I would’ve achieved my life’s purpose.A couple of wolves… Ten? No fifteen. Twenty-seven? Thirty! Thirty, to be exact broke out of the forest, ravenous and ready to fight. Traga guard dogs. Slightly bigger than other wolves and their legs showed that they spent their time fighting and running. These were strong wolves. I almost felt pride when I saw them coming in, if no one knew – they would’ve thought they were wild wolves.I got to my feet as family members and other Tragas came back to the house in their human forms. Hannah ran to my side.“You don’t have to do this. You’re the alpha, send them out instead. You stay.”Vomit bubbled in the back o
