"Here you are," Lucas said when he saw Roman standing in-between the plants. "I've been looking for you everywhere" he stated, causing Roman to him. "Who would have ever thought you would be found here?" He asked when he got close to Roman and stood beside him. Roman again hummed as a reply. "So what's up?" Lucas asked. He is trying to lighten Roman's mood and also get him to tell him what exactly was making him feel so down. "Are you okay?" Lucas asked and Roman again hummed as he played with the plants in front of him Lucas sighed, he was tired of the continuous humming but he wanted to know what Roman's problem was. What harm would it cause Roman to bring Dianne to the elders? It won't have caused him anything. "Do you wish to talk about it?" He asked his friend. And Roman sneer, "I'm fine. I just didn't want to bring Dianne to them yet." "With all due respect Alpha Roman, that's a lie," Lucas stated causing Roman to frown before looking at him "Let's say I know when yo
Roman is finding it hard to let go of Adrainna who is his wife (Dianne) lookalike. He has a good friend, Lucas who helps him once in a while too.

The woods came alive around her. Mounds of dark earthly soil parting beneath her feet as she strained her muscles and ran. It had taken Kihara weeks to learn this woods. To be able to navigate its dense vegetation without tripping on her foot every five seconds. It was hard at first, hard for her to give in to the chase, to the feel of the woods around her, soil and breathing animals, to become a part of it all and not fear it. Asher had told her that young wolves were trained here. Every morning before the sun woke up, they had to run through it. And if they encountered any danger in the woods, they had to face it, best it. A boy wasn’t a full-grown wolf until he could tame every beast in the forest he lived in.When Asher mentioned ‘danger’ Kihara had nearly caved. Her heart quaked as she repeated the word. “Danger? What sought of danger is there?”Asher had looked at her and shrugged. “You know, the normal. Cayotes, other wolves.”“You mean your kin.” Kihara said, teasing him to di
Breakfast in the pack house was served in heaps. This was a surprising and amusing fact to Kihara during her first days in the pack house. She learned quickly that wolves consumed food thrice the quantity an average male would eat and still look at you with their puppy dog eyes begging for more. The wonders of a super-fast metabolism. Kihara mused. Asher drank every day, his alcohol was his water, and yet, she’d never seen him drunk. Nothing like giving the man a few drinks to loosen his tongue would ever happen with him. How sad. Kihara thought.After breakfast, there was nothing much to do in the pack house. Asher and his men went to work, where they tried to act like normal men for a few hours. Since Asher owned his own company, all he had to do was look the part of the CEO. Victor had whispered to Kihara once that the Alpha did nothing but sleep in his office all day, while he was stuck with doing all the paperwork’s since he was Ashers beta. Kihara asked Victor, “If all he does i
Don had left her. Or at least he’d tried to, the bastard. He’d gotten in that truck with the hopes of abandoning Anna and her baby. As much as Anna would like to deny it, she wasn’t completely shocked. Don was exactly that kind of man. He was selfish and conceited. He thought he was smarter than everybody else. He thought he was going to win.And because he was so full of it, so full of shit, Anna had believed in him. She should have known better.That day, she’d only barely escaped. She’d gotten in that truck as she watched Asher beat Don to a bloody pulp, knowing that if she stuck around, if she was caught, she would be next. And so she’d driven like there was no tomorrow. One of Asher’s men had come after her, and he nearly caught up to her, but she was lucky. Machines do not get tired, but wolves do, no matter how fast they are. They are only half human too.But there was no where to go. No where to run to. She couldn’t go back to her place, she couldn’t go to Don’s. She had
Weekends greeted Kihara with lots of activities. There was always something to do. Wolves trained everyday, they ran, they hunted, and did whatever else wolves did, but on weekends when the whole pack was at home, they liked to train together. Some of that training included some heavy fighting that often lead to some heavy injuries. It was bloody and brutal and quite enjoyable.Kihara would often help the injured wolves clean their injuries, lending a hand to Maria, the pack doctor. With the rate at which wolves got injured often, thank the moon for their supernatural healing abilities. Kihara couldn’t imagine how long it would take a human to heal from a sprained muscle, with blood and bones jutting out. But these wolves. Damn this wolves, everything they did made being human feel so mediocre.The training grounds was flat and filled with sand and it was alive again today. Kihara stood at the sides where the first aid kits were, watching. Some of the men had gone to hunt some game w
They showered, then they made love. Their love making was long and thorough. When finally, they both fell on their backs on the bed, a little exhausted, mostly satisfied, their faces glowed in the dark. On Kihara’s lips, a permanent smile had embedded itself. She turned her head to Asher beside her, her thoughts empty, her gaze helplessly fevered.Asher looked at her too, his hands cupping her cheeks. He kissed her lips softly, biting at the lower lip gently. Kihara let out a moan, closing her eyes.“Are you in love with me yet?”Her gaze flung open. She stared into his earnest eyes. His smile was still there, curved playfully like a tease, but his eyes were intense, searching, earnest. His eyes did not lie.“I might be Asher.” She told him gently. His smile widened.“Let’s get you to surety.” Kihara cocked an eyebrow. “Because only then can this,” He pointed to the space between the both of them. “Be fair.”The implication was clear. She knew what he was trying to tell her, what he h
The weekend ended. On Monday morning, Kihara sneaked out of the Alphas bedroom for her morning run. She’d run in the woods so often and had learned it well enough that she didn’t need to bring Asher along.She started at the mouth of the lake like she did every morning and ran her way around back to it. It was a long mile, and the first time she attempted it, she'd collapsed halfway. Even now, the run tested the limits of her endurance, hence, her strategy was to have short pauses in between runs to catch her breadth.This morning she was running her way back when she decided to take a short break, because her sides were burning and it was becoming extremely difficult to run another step. She grabbed the flask of water by her side and took a long swing from it. The water ran through her insides, it’s cool temperature soothing her burning organs and weak joints. Kihara found a large tree with a thick blanket of branches and sat by it, her back resting on it’s trunk.There wasn’t any p
