Chapter 8: Newly found ability

***Tamara***

Alpha Ryker backed orders to his warriors, giving very precise  instructions to them.

He had divided them into groups to cover each part of the vast pack lands.  They were to simply search, detect and fish out anything that was out of place along the borders.

'Bring  the mut who dared to infiltrate my pack . ' He ordered in a serious directive tone.

'Alive. ' His grave clear voice was heard as his long tongue snaked on his bottom lip, licking the soft pink flesh in anticipation. No doubt in my mind that he would draw pleasure from imposing torture onto the culprit.

A chorus of 'yes Alpha' rang on the meadow followed by strident footsteps.

The question was...

Would they really find the supposed infiltrator, or was 'he' already gone?

A million thoughts jumbled in my mind as  the frontal lobe of my brain tried evoking different scenarios, on how the bloodied paper could have gotten to the meadows.

What if the Alpha was overlooking something, anything?

My late mother told me that her guts were always premonitory and that so are mine. How I wish she was still kicking, she would have known what to do in this situation.

By now everyone had left except for me and the Alpha. The tall Alpha man stood in undoubtedly deep thoughts. His whole exterior, starting from the tense broad shoulders to his wide stance, screamed seriousness and some underlying stress.

He was a man after blood for anyone threatening his pack and he would remain so as long as he was the Alpha leader.

I softly called him. 'Alpha. '

'Not now Tamara. ' He grunted.

'Please Alpha this is important. ' I wondered why he was always such a grump. Or was it just to me in the pack? because as far as I knew, he was a good social leader to his people. But he became a different person when it came to his family, the pack.

The surrounding packs and even the stray werewolves however disagreed with him being a good Alpha. The stories and rumors about his mythical killing spree scared them to the core.

They portrayed him as the devil incarnate with a triad of dark traits. Some rumors had him been referred to as ferocious and sadistic. Others painted him as a narcissistic werewolf, one who used his power to do whatever he desired to other people.

How could she have known that the paper was there?

I suddenly jumped at the Alpha's voice in my head. The abrupt intrusion put my brain in pause, the organ struggling to make a connection to what was happening.

Did she plant it there?

This time I stepped back, my eyes wide with my right hand over my open mouth. I stood fazed momentarily, my body parts refusing to coordinate.

Why was I hearing his voice in my head? I wasn't a werewolf, hell I had no single explanation whatsoever.

No she couldn't have known that she'd run on the trails leading to the meadow.

'My child, as you grow older with each passing day, you will uncover more abilities that you'd never guess you possess. Don't fret Tamara, embrace them, make them a part of you because, this pack will need them. '

I remembered my mothers' words as the Alpha male thoughts continued infiltrating my mind. I had no control whatsoever on how to stop hearing them.

Casting my eyes in him quickly, I could tell he had no idea that I knew what he was thinking.

Maybe I should pressure her on telling me how she knew it would be there.

'Alpha Ryker. '

He turned to me in pure irritation. 'Can't you shut up for once Tamara? '

I didn't have any intention in listening anymore to his thoughts, so I decided to just engage him in a conversation.

'Alpha, you want the supposed culprit to be brought to you alive, right? ' I put quotation marks in the air as I uttered the word supposed.

'Why else did I sent my pack warriors to conduct a search? ' He visibly looked at me in utter anger.

'Alpha, with all due respect, the particular person you're searching for did nothing wrong. ' I voiced my thoughts.

'He threatened my pack Tamara, he fucking threatened my family? ' He snarled, his tone taking a very different turn and tempo.

'Alpha..'

'I swear if you start another sentence with 'Alpha'...' He swore, cutting me off .

'I'm sorry, but this person did nothing wrong except attempting to get into the pack grounds. ' I explained.

'No! ' He growled the word out of his throat.

'The fucker placed that piece of paper there as a warning. How can you even say that? ' He exasperatedly asked.

'And where is the threat there? the only words written were, I AM. Nothing else, or are you on the insinuation that the message is cryptic? '

'Listen here, witch.' He drawled the word witch, talking a step closer to my almost shaking small frame.

'I know a threat when I see one and I don't need a pathetic witch like you coaching me. ' His warning was candid as day and I took it pretty seriously.

He stiffened after the outburst, his gaze momentarily directed at one spot. Someone was mind linking him, and judging from the expression on his face, the info was far from being rosy.

'Alpha. ' Beta Jayson came into view, his head respectfully bowed before the Alpha.

'Jayson, I want to know why there is still no capture of anyone whatsoever. ' His voice was now cold, although he was offering a listening ear to his Beta.

'There wasn't a single thing out of place, everything was absolutely normal as it always is. There were no unusual scents and no sight of an outsider. We even went as far as to the neutral lands, trying to see whether we could pin point something out of the ordinary. Still we came across no one or anything eye catching. '

After the much needed explanation from the Beta, Alpha Ryker gave him a nod dismissed him and turned to leave. I had actually expected the man to lash at his beta but instead he calmly left, asking me to follow him.

We walked on the trails we had taken as we previously ran, this time taking somewhat longer to reach at the pack centre. The silence that rested between us was quite uncomfortable, such that it had me fiddling with my fingers.

Our footsteps echoed into the quiet surroundings crackling on the leaves that lay on the ground. I relied purely on my familiarity with the trail since I couldn't quite see well. It was at the end of the civil twilight, and some stars had already started becoming visible.

It was unusually quiet as we passed in between homes after coming out of the forest. People would still be outside running errands and some even going for runs and walks. Today seemed different though, I hadn't seen a single civilian except for the warriors and guards.

'Where is everyone? '

'In their homes. ' He simply answered.

'You ordered them to stay inside, didn't you? '

'No, I ordered them to retire to their homes till further notice. '

'What's the difference? ' I asked.

'If you don't see the difference then...' He trailed off.

Oh my goddess, must these nosy people peep through their windows?

His voice yet again sounded in my mind, making me jump in surprise. It was making me feel very uncomfortable.

'You are quite jumpy today. ' Alpha Ryker pointed out.

'I must admit Alpha, you are quite observant today. ' I answered.

He walked beside me, both of his hands in his pockets. That particular appearance threatened to sway my thoughts really fast.

'Stop it Tamara, we are in the open. '

'What have I even done? '

'In my office. ' He stated with finality, stringing me along with him towards his office.

Once we got inside I immediately turned to him, avoiding eye contact as I did so.

'What was that about? '

He watched me for sometime, probably wondering what I was talking about.

'Out there, for a moment I could smell a whiff of your arousal. '

His voice became huskier his slow steps towards me increasing my heart beat. I had forgotten he had a strong sense of smell.

'I didn't want the people living in the nearby houses to smell it. ' He stated.

Why I'm I letting her arousal affect this much? Is it her plan to distract me from earlier? Now I really think she had something to do with that...

'I didn't put that bloodied piece of paper there. ' I finally decided to stop this madness of him accusing me in his thoughts.

'That blood was clearly fresh, how would I have placed it there while I was running with you and Theo? ' I continued.

'Wait. ' He put his hand on the air.

'Why are you explaining yourself out of the blues if you didn't put it there? Why are you justifying yourself Tamara? ' His calm demeanour was clearly breaking.

'Because you keep on thinking that maybe I'm the one who did it. '

'Ha ha, come on! ' He laughed in mockery.

'How would you even know what I'm thinking? '

'I can hear your thoughts loud and clear, Alpha. '

The connection of her back with the distinguished intricate panel details, set off a quick and barely perceptible wince from her mouth. My right hand eased on her lower back, rubbing sensually to distract her from the slight pain. I swept my hand in slow, wide motions, teasing my way down to her ass cheeks. I then opened her legs apart with my muscular thigh, planting it firmly such that her heat was on my thigh directly. 'Oh fuck! ' My little mate swore in a whisper, her petite body rocking gently into mine. Her well rounded hips gyrated rhythmically on my thigh to a tune only known to her. I grabbed her more firmly by her butt cheeks, aiding her movements, encouraging her to grind harder on me. I swear I

    ***Tamara*** 'Hold it there. ' I untangled myself from the black cotton sheets, muttering curses at no one in particular. Somehow during the steamy session my legs had been caught up in between the messy beddings. After untangling my legs, I swung them over the edge of the bed, planting my feet on the comforter that had fallen off during our mating. The jacquard comforter set was fully black, with visible two tone rectangular patterns. Its feel on my feet was exquisitely velvety. Had I not been mad at the moment, I would have taken my time to feel on the material. 'Tamara. ' 'Give me a minute. ' I picked up the material and put it back on the bed messily. I needed to think properly, without his emotions running through our bond distracting me. I paced on the long fluffy rug area, making it possible for me to avoid the long runs of the soft hued wide plank hardwood flooring. My eyes to

    ***Alpha Ryker*** 'How far are you with the information about that paper? ' I stood at the head of the Maple live edge communal table, waiting for an answer from my appointed pack members. There were a total of 9 heads in the sound proof meeting room, including mine. Theo, Jayson, Mateo the lead enforcer, Tyron a very good tracker and four other warriors. Their stiff postures had me questioning whether they had heard my question. 'Alpha. ' Tyron stood up, bowing slightly in avowed dutiful respect. He was a teenager gifted with a very exceptional scent tracking ability. His sense of smell and the capability to detect an extremely small difference between many smells made him the best. 'The perfume on the paper is different with that of Monica. ' He spoke in a low fearful voice. He was slightly shaking, my aura was affecting him. His wolf recognised me as his Alpha, the poor kid was in t

Their bond strengthened, thickening as skin slapped against skin. 'Faster Ry!

    TamaraWe had been searching for Jayson for hours, it was as if he had disappeared without a trace. No one including his mate had seen him for close to 12 hours now. Every attempt to telepathically reach out to him proved futile. Even Janette couldn't feel his emotions and neither could she get through to him.Poor Janette, she was distraught and hysterical to a point where I had no choice but to put a sleeping spell on her. Any stress would affect the foetus and put it in danger, and I wasn't about to let it happen. 'Any luck Tyron? ' We were back at my mate's office after almost covering every corner looking for him. There were heavy showers that started in the midst of our search forcing us to retreat until they were over.The afternoon sun had long been masked by dark thick clouds, making the sky appear low and gray. The clouds had been forming since dawn and now they were finally leaden with water. The sound of the water drops on the roof top sw

The more writings and drawings I saw, the more I began to savvy that it was not a journal but a spell book of some sort. I knew most of the spells, starting from binding to healing, even cleansing spells.The book had this sweet musty smell that seemed to waft and linger in my nose. It's appearance was powerfully and mysteriously alluring. It's as if there was a magnetism I couldn't explain that pulled me into it. Curiosity began to brew deep inside, the need to go through every drawing and writing grew in minutes. I was however after a specific spell, the channeling spell.I knew what I was getting into and yet it was the only option I had if I wanted to defeat the evil wizard. As I skimmed through the drawings, one caught my eye. There was a large candle in a tin of water, with two large pots of plant on eithe

To begin with, her right thumb was bandaged and when I unwrapped it, a quarter of the finger was missing. She was the same person Theo remembered seeing when he was immured. But that had been weeks ago, she would have been healed by now. Near rhetorical questions kept on pressing my conscious for answers. Why? Is it because I finally got mated? Is it the reason she sought out my cousin? To hurt him as revenge against my death sentence to her? 'Ryker I already told you that her mental state suffers greatly. Her wolf is so weak otherwise by now that wound on her thumb would be healed. I need to heal her first then we can question her when she is back to normal. ' Tamara, whisp

'But it's barely 30 minutes since you forced 2 pieces of arrow roots down my throat. ' I was so full, but the mouth watering aroma of the sizzling soup as it wafted through my nostrils posed a temptation. It was filled with white beans, roasted chicken, hearty and root vegetables. 'Just ten spoons. ' She placed the spoon inside the bowl and urged me to take a sip. 'Mmmmh.' My taste buds exploded as the savoury herbs settled and melted on my tongue. It was scrumptious, the taste of it making me forget my manners. I placed the spoon aside and picked up the bowl, downing the soothing fluid in big gulps. 'This is sooo sweet.

I was sure as hell that wasn't her wolf talking, she would never physically use her powers on me.This, this was an entirely different force. Formidable than the power my mate possessed. What the hell was that? My beast was still shaken up, and he had retreated on the back of my conscious. A power that left my mate unconscious, but breathing peacefully.
