Exhaling loudly, I stopped running after realizing I was far from the pack house. I looked through the dark wood, as the thought of going back home crossed my mind, but I knew my stepfather would not hesitate to send me back. The pack wasn't safe either as I could easily be found.The woods was really dark. However, I was able to thread through it with the help of my night vision. The feeling of having a wolf was once again nice, and this brought questions I always had for Kyra but I never seemed to ask, because I was either too busy to ask or trying to understand why Alpha Jared wished to reject me. I had the time now, so I reached out to Kyra who was wide awake and helping me make my way through the woods."Where were you all this while?" When I clocked sixteen, I patiently waited for her to surface, but she didn't and that was the needed age to get your wolf. I heard there and I wanted to know mine, but the reply she gave shocked Byme."It's because of the wolfsbane.""Wolfsbane?"
"Clean up the room and make sure you're not noisy.""Okay.""I will leave now."My eyelids fluttered open at the sound of people talking. Above me, I saw a white surface. What's this place? The sound of footsteps made me turn my head."Ooh, she is awake!" Two women showed up by my sides, their eyes peering into mine."Are you okay?" I looked at the middle aged woman staring down at me."Where am I?" I managed to ask, my voice weak."You're at the Black Moon Pack." She replied."Black Moon?" I asked, confused as I tried sitting up. They helped me."Yes. Our Alpha found you and brought you here." The woman explained."Alpha? Found?" I'm supposed to be in the Crescent Moonstone Pack, aren't I?Just then, the door opened, and a man entered the room. "You're awake." "Alpha!" My brows furrowed as he walked closer to me. The two ladies stepped back."How do you feel? Does your head hurt?""Head? Did I get hurt?" I asked, instinctively taking my hand to my head. My fingers grazed the bandag
JARED"Are you ready?" My room door opened and Mavis poked his head in. The Alpha of the Silver bead Pack was back from traveling and we had managed to schedule a meeting with him. I was currently getting dressed for it.Tucking my shirt in my trouser, I grabbed my jacket and phone before heading out."Has Avery arrived?" It was already thirty minutes passed the usual time she came to my room, but I had not seen her."No, why?" Mavis asked."My coffee," I muttered, "but let's go." We both walked out of the room. Garvey made to follow us, but I told him to stay back in case Avery comes.We got to the car and Mavis drove out of the pack house. It took about an hour before we got to the Silver bead pack. We were stopped at the border for questioning, but I didn't have to answer lots of questions before we were allowed into the pack.It took about another twenty minutes before we got to their pack house. Mavis and I left the car and one of the guards approached us immediately. He must hav
AVERYI ambled out of the bathroom in a new dress, which was given to me by the court lady, the lady from earlier. My head was still bandaged, so I made sure not to touch it. I stepped out of the room and I was in the middle of a hallway with soft lighting and warm colors.I made my way forward. I had no idea where I was heading but I just wanted to be out of the room. As I walked through the hallway, I caught sight of the paintings laid on the wall. One of them was a painting of the moon, the other was the sky. At a distance, a painting of a human figure laid on the wall. I sauntered to the painting and I blinked when I saw a man there. He looked like he was in his early fifties in the painting. His face was stoic and carried elegance and power. I got chills from just staring at it."Avery." I turned at the sound of my name."Alpha." I bowed when I saw Alpha Drew walking towards me."What are you doing here?""Oh.. I'm just looking around. Who is he though?" I questioned, pointing at
LISAA loud yell left my lips as I walked into my room, picking and throwing the first vase my eyes landed on. The vase hit the wall and shattered loudly on the ground, but it isn't enough to quench my boiling blood. I went over to the mirror hanged on the wall, I took it off and hit it on the ground, another loud yell leaving my lips. How could Jared support Avery when I'm his girlfriend and Luna to be, and that bitch – how could she get pregnant!She better not come back here or better still, she should never be found. Getting my phone, I dialed the only number I could think of, and after few rings, the person picked."Yes, Princess Lisa." The hoarse voice rang through my ears and I smiled."I need you to help me find someone with the aim of killing her.""Who is that?'"It's a girl," I told him everything I knew about Avery, and he hanged up after assuring me to do the job well. I trusted him too, he always gave good results
JARED"So, you are yet to find her?" I looked up at Raul who was standing in front of me, a kind of remorseful look on his face.Sighing, I bit my lip - hard. "You know she is pregnant, right?""I'm sorry.""You are sorry? What are you doing, gamma. Are we this weak? We can't even find just one girl. Just one.""I'm sorry." He bowed, remorse laced in his voice, but I don't care. All I want is my Avery back. Knowing that she is out there alone, and probably without shelter makes my heart ache so much.I just can't seem to find her no matter how I try. I had even gone out to search for her myself but there was nothing. Even her friend here, who we eventually found out said she had no idea where she went too even though she helped her. It's like she disappeared into thin air.I was about sending Raul off when the door burst open and Mavis rushed in. "Alpha!" He showed me his phone and my eyes widened when I saw Avery's picture there."What's this?" I asked, my eyes not leaving the pictu
AVERYAs I left Drew and my so called mate, my heart raced and different questions whirled through my mind. How come I have a mate? Even though, it was more weird that I was pregnant without a mate, it felt so unreal. I didn't feel the they said comes when you see your mate for the first time or is it because I had seen him before even though I don't remember.Instead of feeling happy that I had a mate, It was strange. My feelings were distorted. I looked back when I heard the revving of an engine. Even from a distance, I could still see two cars driving out.Sigh. I looked away, heading into my room. I moved to the closet, draping a muffler around my neck cause I felt cold. I went back to my bed, settling on it with another sigh. What should I do?A knock on the door made me go get it,and Alpha Drew showed up. I said nothing as he made his way in."Are you okay?" He asked, and I sighed shutting the door before turning to me. "I don't know, but is he really my mate?"I asked, but
JAREDWhen I met with Drew, and calmly asked him to let Avery come with me, also saying that Avery herself, refused to go with me, but I didn't believe. I decided to see her and it was true. She didn't want to go with me and it seemed she felt uncomfortable around me. I didn't like it and I would change it. I don't mind coming here everyday to do so.When I got back to the pack house, I was met with Mavis who was all smiles. I asked him the reason for the smiles and he told me that the Silverbead Pack agreed to form a deal with us. But the disappointing thing was that he also agreed to form a deal with The Black Moon Pack tooI heard he was all considerate, but I never expected it to be to this extent. How could he collaborate with the two packs knowing our situation? But on a second thought, it was better than nothing. None of our packs surpassed the other.I still wasn't satisfied. If I was higher than Drew and was a member of the werewolf community council as a whole, I wouldn't ne
