Hayley looked around for places where to start so that the pack did not fear her.
She subconsciously walked to the house she used to live it, there was nothing there anymore. Not even the ash, just an empty space of what used to be.
Hayley stooped to pick up a few blackened stones, sad that she and Carrie didn't get to give Mr and Mrs Blackwater a proper goodbye.
Hayley was about to get up when an image played out before her eyes.
She gasped when it ended.
"That little. I can't believe this." She said to herself, feeling tears forming in her eyes.
She wasted no time in racing back to the pack house, knowing that the real culprit who caused her parents' death was there.
Hayley kicked the door of the office open. With eyes ablaze, she gave a roar.
"Conrad!" She charged him.
From the quickness and force of Hayley's attack, Conrad had no time to react. It even caused them to break through the office wall and fell three stori
Hayley dreamt of being in a meadow with red and yellow flowers, with what seem to be blood raining down on them. She could feel herself crying in her sleep, both for the revelation of what had happened and for feeling conflicted at times.’’You will be great. Just believe in yourself and your abilities. Trust the timing that everything happens for a reason.’’ A voice that seemed to be coming from all around said.’’Most times the reason makes no sense. Why did my parents have to die?’’’’Every hero has a sad back story.’’’’But haven’t I suffered enough?’’’’And that is to make you all the more greater.’’ The voice faded.The flowers soon turn to ash, blowing away in the wind and the scene changed to her sitting at a table with food.When Hayley woke up, her eyes felt heavy from all the crying. She was also hun
Kane turned to look at his mate. His eyes were sad, yet pleading.Hayley could feel and see his pain. He wanted the simple spells that are slowly turning into curses gone.Hayley felt bad for him to feel this way. She hated that something like that was happening to her mate.She kissed his cheek, but that didn't seem to ease his worry."I don't think I can do this anymore." Kane said softly."Do what?""Be the Alpha. You can go ahead and reject me. You need someone strong by your side, that someone isn't me.""What? No, don't talk like that. Please, at least fight those spells a little longer. You can't give up now."Kane shook his head. "I feel like I have failed this pack."Hayley fought back her tears to embrace Kane."You are the strongest and best person I know. You are Alpha for a reason. You know right from wrong, you treat people fairly."There was a rush of wind. When Hayley pulled away from Kane,
Hayley ran into Sam and Axel on her way down the stairs. The two pulled away from each other as if they were mischievous kids who just got caught."Come on guys, you two are mates and we are like adults. No need to be shy."Sam did a little giggle."Hayley, I never told you this. But thank you, you helped me a lot by helping me break free of Davina's ability. No longer do I have those headaches, and I'm truly happy now." Sam said, pulling Hayley into a hug."It was no problem, Axel asked, I delivered."Sam gave her a nodding smile before pulling Axel away.The moment Hayley got outside, she could hear a few pack members talking about the vampire that was still on the loose."I am not too keen on being out and about like this. The vampire can easily kill one of us.""I doubt it. Few vampires have fighting skills, hence the reason why they train all of us in combat.""I'm still going to be cautious. I heard he was at the B
"Get inside." A mother told her child, pushing him in the house, even though that wouldn’t keep him safe if Hayley’s Timber beast decided to attack. ’’What is that thing?’’ Someone asked. Hayley tried hard to concentrate on her mission, but with each step, her Timber wolf was beginning to gain control again and all she could see now was red. "Is that a rogue?" Someone asked. There was a howl, which made Hayley's wolf howl back. Accepting the challenge, as a pack member called for the Alpha. There was a growl and soon Hayley was surrounded by of few members of the court guards, both in wolf and human form. "Who are you?" The leader asked. Trying to remain in control, Hayley let out what she thought was a soft growl, but instead it came out as a loud roar. Hayley hardly had enough time to blink before they jumped on her. Scratching, biting, clawing. The Timber beast seemed to love that, because Hayley could sense
Hayley left Kane so that she could walk around and make sure no one hated or feared her."Hayley!"She turned to see her sister running up to her. She didn't stop and threw her arms around Hayley's shoulder, giving her a tight squeeze before letting go."I have some good news. I went by the pack house but Kane said you already left.""Good news?" Hayley questioned."You're going to be an aunt." Carrie squealed.At first Hayley stared at her blankly, then a smile spread across her face."That's so awesome." Hayley pulled her into another hu
"I should get going, maybe Kane will enjoy these with me." Hayley held up the basket."I honestly don't know why you still put up with Davina.""Because sometimes revenge isn't sweet."Carrie scoffed, "save the monk talk, you need to kick some ass.""I hope when I do that to you, you don't complain.""I'll see you around," Carrie said walking off.When Hayley got to the house, she went up to Kane's room with the basket she got.
"Where is Kane?" A growling voice came.Hayley looked up at Kane from her place on the floor."That soun-"Conrad pushed the door open, invading their privacy."I'm here for a challenge, to show you and this pack who the true Alpha is." Conrad gave a wide grin.Hayley nodded at Kane to let him know that he should pretend as if he is weak."I guess you can do this." Kane shrugged, then got up."Or to make my work easier, you could just hand over the position to me.""No what kind of challenge would that be? You have to work for what you want Conrad, can't expect things to be handed to you." Hayley piped up.Conrad scoffed, "I wouldn't be much of a challenge anyway. I am sure that I'm now strong than the Alpha."Kane scratched
The day didn't go by without Hayley being challenged, she was picked on by two females differing in age.Even though they ganged up on Hayley, they fought each other as well.The youngest female, who seemed to be in her early 20s, kicked the other female that seemed close to 40 in her stomach."It's just you and me now." She said, advancing on Hayley."Don't count me out." The other female struggled to her feet."Go sit down grandma, Kane would even look at you twice. I hardly even know why he is with this child."Hayley growled, "are you going to keep talking?""Oh, ready and eager to lose."Hayley sidestepped an attack, got behind the female then punched her in the back of the neck.She fell to the ground."Don't tell me one hit is all it takes. What if I was the enemy? Would you just let me win like that? Get up and fight like the tough girl you said you were. If you want to be Luna, you have to fight."The female got up with a gro
Hayley woke at dawn to a delicious sore feeling down below. She rolled over to see Kane exiting the bathroom wearing only a towel, displaying his muscular body. Her lips parted with appreciation, while a smile played on his lips. "Like what you see?" Kane flexed his pec muscles, making them jump. "Mouthwatering." She bit her lips. Her eyes riveted to the bulge behind his towel that swayed when he walked. He abruptly turned, catching her staring. He smirked. "Need help with that?" Kane chuckled, "you are such a sex addict." "You are my mate, so it's fine." In no time, Hayley was stooping before Kane. Once she'd removed the towel, his erection jerked as if excited to have her eyes on it. "What are you going to do?" He moved his hips forward. Hayley gave a wicked smile before taking his length in her mouth, making him groan. When she pulled back to catch her breath, Kane roughly dragged her
"Yes, no. I don't know anymore." Holly cried."There is no need to be scared. Take it easy." Hayley touched her shoulder."They did something to me." Holly looked at her."They?""Yes. I wasn't even at school for a month after my second year of college, before being kidnapped. My boyfriend, well, I thought he was my boyfriend. He was there.""What did they do to you?" Kane asked.Holly looked at him, her eyes unreadable."We went to a party. It was a welcome back to school type of thing. When the party was over, my boyfriend wanted to stay even though I insisted on going home. The next thing I know, I was drugged and then…" She trailed off."And then what? Tell me what happened to you." Gunther said, taking her face in his hands.Holly sobbed, her body shaking. Her voice had turned to a whisper as she spoke again. "When I woke up, I was naked and on a stone altar for some kind of ritual. There were at least four o
The next morning, Hayley woke up feeling angry for no reason."Morning." Kane greeted, trying to pull her into a hug, but she kept moving away."No good morning kiss?""I'm not in the mood, Kane."Kane glanced over at his mate."That's a first."Hayley rolled to her side, facing away from him."Are you alright?""Can you not talk at all?""Ok." Whispered Kane."Can you go too, please?""Go?""Leave the room.""I- ok."Kane got up with a sigh, then head to the bathroom, where he took a shower, brushed his teeth and shaved.Just as he was drying his face, he felt a presence behind him. He turned, thinking that it was Hayley, but saw no one."Should I bring you breakfast?"Hayley didn't respond. Instead, she turned the other way, to face away from Kane again."I guess that's a no."Kane gently closed the door behind him, making his way to breakfast.
Kane and Hayley met up with Gunther, who was downing a glass of dark liquid.He coughed, "dragon's breath."Gunther glanced up at the stairs to where the vampire had his mate in chains.Not long after, the dirty-looking girl was standing before the Delta."What did you do?" She asked, her voice trembling."There is no time to explain, you have to come with me," Gunther told her."Why should I trust you? I am nothing but a human.""You are my mate. It is my duty to protect you. But I promise, if you come with me, I will never hurt you."Before the girl could respond, the vampire was standing by her. He had a smile on his face and an evil glint in his eyes.He placed a hand on the girl's head, turning it slowly so that her wide eyes can stare at him."You know better than to wander off. Now come.""Yes." The girl held her head low and walked with him."Is he keeping her like some kind of pet?" Sam aske
When Hayley got back to Kane, he had a bath ready for her, as promised."Hey.""Hayley," Kane said.Picking off petals from a rose and dropping them in the water."You aren't mad at me, are you?" She asked."Why would I be?""I just killed."Kane chuckled, "if you didn't, I would have done it myself."Hayley moved over to kiss Kane. He kissed her back, then pulled away."My mate." He said, burying his face in her neck.He pulled back, then peeled her clothes off."Gods, you are so perfect." Kane took a step back, running his eyes over Hayley's body."So gods damn perfect." He said."Is there something you want to do about it?" Hayley breathingly asked."Let's get you cleaned first."Kane helped Hayley into the tub. When she sat down, he removed his clothes sit behind her.Hayley leant back into him, already feeling his erection growing.Kane applied soap on Hayley's
Hayley woke to having a cottonmouth. It was so dry she couldn't feel her tongue.She licked her lips, moving her tongue to make sure it was still there.Hayley rolled on her back with a groan, then bolted upright."What the gods just happened?"She looked around to see that she was in the cherry field, then what happened came back to her.Clutching her still aching neck, she gazed around again, then got up."That little shithead," Hayley said, stumbling as she took a step.Her vision swam and the place span."I am going to squeeze that bitch's neck until her eyes pop out."When Hayley made her way back to the centre of the town, she came upon three headless bodies that were also missing a few limbs and the pack gathered around."What happened here?""Some creature was on a rampage, but ran away after."Hayley hurried to the packhouse to see Kane, Gunther and Axel in a discussion."It's Conrad,
Hayley gave up on what to do on how to get Conrad. She wanted to put a stop to him once and for all but his scent wasn't anywhere near the pack territory.When she got back to the house, the former Beta was in the office, telling Kane how disgusted he was with his son's action."I am ashamed to call that boy my son. In my days, I wouldn't think of disrespecting a woman or going as far as challenging the Alpha. It goes to show that he is weak, and after all those years, he only got worse.""Good afternoon." Hayley greeted, just to be respectful, even though Angelo was one of them that wanted to leave her the night she was found."Luna." He gave a smile and now."I should have seen it, but your father was the one that kept that boy safe. If it was up to me, he would be in a grave.""Angelo, don't talk like that. He is still your son.""Son?" The older man scoffed. "Did he see my mate as someone that cared for him? No, he lashed out afte
Hayley now has come to terms with the fact that she can never have a perfect day or a day where she relaxes.She pulled away from Kane.’’What is it?’’“Something just happened.’’ She said, trying to figure out what, but Kane pulled her back into a kiss.’’The only thing that is going to happen is me bending you over again.’’ Kane said, breaking the kiss.Before he could kiss Hayley again, a knock came at the door.’’And there goes that.’’ Hayley said.Kane let out a soft growl before getting up, when he opened the door, the guard before him did a salute."Conrad was spotted at the border, he attacked a woodland creature. She is hardly alive." A court guard said."Imp, he attacks an Imp," Gunther said, pushing his glasses up his nose. He, along with Axel, was standing behind the guard.."I think it was the one that mage
Kane and Hayley were in a heated make-out session, in the office, the door was locked and there wasn't anyone around to disturb them, like those countless other times."Are you ready for this?" Kane asked.Hayley broke the kiss to stare up at Kane. Instead of unbuttoning her blouse, she ripped it from her body."That's a yes then." Hayley began to kiss her again.Hayley could feel Kane's need in every kiss and every nibble."To the bedroom." Harley breathed out.Kane lift her and she wrapped her legs around his waist as he brought her to their bedroom, never breaking their kiss."I need you so bad," Kane kissed her deeply, before kicking the door open and slamming it behind him."Then don't stop."Hayley used her hands to put his hand on her breast.Kane growled before throwing Hayley on the bed, then climbed on top of her.He kissed her deeply again, struggling to unbutton his pants while trying to remove
