Sabine
I have been walking for hours now. The pain coming from my leg is almost unbearable, but I have to keep going. I have to. I sighed seeing the mark I made an hour ago, on an old stump. I kept going in circles. I can feel the tears ready to wash my face, but I refuse to give up. I will find a way out of this giant endless maze.
I hoped that by the time it’s going to be dark I would be close to the main road so I don’t have to worry about the wolves or other savage animals. Little did I know that I would probably get stuck in here forced to find shelter and something to eat.Despite Inna yelling in my head not to leave, to stay with Him, I chose to walk away. I meant every single word I said. I wanted to find my own way. As much as I was grateful for his help it wouldn’t be fair to him to drag him into my mess…
The
Kade Where are you, Sabine? I asked myself looking at the three lines. It’s been three days since anyone saw her and I started looking for her. It’s like she vanished into the darkness but I know better. She is here, I can feel her, yet I can’t find her. I sighed, going back to the table and pouring myself another drink. I curse under my breath seeing the empty bottle. “Any leads” I mind-link the patrol guards. “No, Alpha” their answers came back the same. I rubbed my temple annoyed trying to get rid of the headache I had. I started pacing back and forth forcing myself to think of the places we didn’t look at yet. She is injured and I know she couldn’t walk that far so why am I unable to find her then.
Kade“Fuck” I cursed under my breath seeing Sabine’s naked body laying on the frozen ground. My bones snapped and rearranged almost instantly, thanks to the multiple times I shifted.I bent down quickly checking her pulse and I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. She was alive. Her pulse was weak but it was there and that gave me hope.“Come on Sabine, wake up.” I said, shaking her trying to get a reaction from her. She looked just like a sleeping Snow White. “Don’t give up on me” I voiced out, surprising myself.I glanced around to see if I could spot the grey she-wolf, but like the other time, she was gone. Kieran's anxiety made my head spin and I had to push him back so I could focus. I know the she-wolf needed medical attention, too and I will do my best to find her. Right now I can’t go chasing
KadeI kept pacing back and forth on the pack clinic hallway waiting for someone to come and let me know how Sabine was doing. We were twenty minutes away when I mind linked the pack doctor, letting her know that I needed her help.The doctor waited for us in front of the clinic taking Sabine right away. I knew she was going to send someone as soon as she had news.I glanced at the wall clock and I felt stuck in time. Only a minute has passed since I checked it last time. I brushed my hair nervously not knowing what to do next."Boss, we came as soon as we heard the news” Jonah’s voice sounded behind me. As I turned to look at him I could see the worry spread all over his face.” This is my wife, Alma,” Jonah said, introducing a woman who looked down, fidgeting her fingers. “And this
SabineA sob leaves my mouth while I am covering my eyes. I feel sore. I kept tossing and turning, but I am not ready to wake up yet. My eyelids feel heavy and the light is bothering my eyes. I sighed thinking that today I have to come up with a plan. I am not going to survive if I keep eating frozen roots, I need some protein too.The thought I could fail slips into my mind and for a moment I am debating if I should go back to my dad, but I push the thought away. I would rather die here starving than going back and being forced to marry Mika.A growl escapes my mouth as a beeping sound becomes louder, forcing me to open my eyes and see where it was coming from.I gasped in shock seeing that I wasn’t in the tree hollow anymore. I was in a cold white roo
Kade“Mr., I don’t think you understand what I am saying. As soon as my granddaughter wakes up we will be leaving”, Coralia said shortly, tasting my patience.“Grandma” I said and she instantly rolled her eyes, annoyed. “ I don’t think you heard me when I said you are not taking the girl.” I told her through gritted teeth accentuating every word. Coralia opened her mouth to argue with me but I raised my finger to stop her.“I don’t think you understand that Your granddaughter was in pretty bad shape when I found her here on my land. All I want, is to make sure that she will fully recover and I am sorry to tell you but you can not provide such an environment.” I spat before heading towards the exit. “ Go and rest, the doctor will let
Kade I didn’t think I could walk that fast in my human form and yet I got to the pack clinic in record time. I convinced myself that I would just stop by and see how Sabine was doing, if she needed anything. Never have I ever believed that the moment I opened the room door I would be bewitched. My heart skipped a beat seeing her sitting on the edge of the bed dressed in a blue hospital gown that didn’t cover her too much, chatting with Sasha. I felt Kieran drooling over the bond and I wondered for the nth time what was about her that made us both so enchanted. “Hey”, I heard myself saying and I could see her cute mouth making an “o” shape. “Hi,” she replied, smiling trying to hide her surprise. “Alpha, I’ll be outside in case you need me” Sasha said q
SabineMy parents, oh no, what am I going to do? I don’t want to go back… why did you Goddess let them find me. Why didn’t you let me die in the woods? I would have died happy, with him in my thoughts. He was all I could think about it, I talked to him, while Inna stopped answering and he guided my steps through the woods. How I wished I had gone with him and his friend but my stubbornness got the best of me. I sigh thinking about those gorgeous chocolate eyes. Besides the men in our group I haven’t met many, but He was definitely the most handsome guy I saw. My face almost turns red when I remember how it felt to be in his muscular arms. How his soft hands cleaned my wound without me feeling anything. I only wish I knew his name.“Sabine, do you want anything else to eat?” Sasha asked me, interrupting my daydreaming.
Sabine“I can’t even look at you right now,” My dad spat angrily. “I don’t think you realized how bad you made us look, I thought you understood the importance of your union with Mika. It’s not about you, it’s about everyone” Dad continued clenching his fists.Every word he says hits my heart like a thousand knives, why don't I have a word to say? Why didn't it matter what I wanted? I gulped down the lump formed in my throat not being able to look at him while he continued blaming me.“As soon as the doctor lets you go, you will marry Mika and we all leave this place. No celebration, nothing. We wasted precious food on an engagement that didn’t take place, I am not going to do it again. Now pray, that Mika would still agree to take you” Dad uttered and I chuckled. “Like he would miss the chance to become the next Chief” I heard myself saying.
Happiness… When I was just a child I wondered many times what exactly happiness was. Everyone around me struggled to find it out despite their constant efforts. Not only did I question its existence, but I was sure it wasn’t something I was going to be blessed with. I blamed myself for ruining my parents’ chance of happiness. Because of me, they spent their lives separate seeking a reason to live. Only when Sabine appeared in my life, I begin to hope I would find happiness. A smile spread across my face as I looked at the beautiful woman lying next to me with her chestnut long spread across my pillow. Her chest rose and fell as I continued to enjoy the peaceful moment. Twelve years had passed since the Goddess brought Sabine into my life and not a day passed without me being grateful. Even when I was in the coma, I knew I had to find my way back to her, as she was the light of my darkness. “I love you,” my own goddess whispered while she turned over to face me. “I love y
SabineMy heart hammered in my chest as the fear took over. I couldn’t believe I was about to lose everything, my home, my mate, the father of my unborn child. I struggled with the decision of announcing everyone I was carrying the alpha’s unborn son, but somehow I wanted the people who had been my family for the past year to choose me as their Luna for my skills, not because they were taking pity on me... After a moment of reflection, I decided to let the people vote, speak their minds. If they wanted me as their Luna, they would say so through their votes. Deep inside, I understood why my father decided to follow the laws. A pack needed a strong Luna, one who could fight their battles and carry on with his legacy.The fear I was going to be cast aside took over me and for the first time I wondered what I was going to do alone, how I was supposed to make amends for me and for my child I was carrying. One thing was certain: I wasn’t letting Kade step down from his role. A ragged breat
Kade “Someone find Cameron,” I barked as Zeke, my new Beta, gave me a small nod before he stepped away to carry my orders. I liked that about him. He was a man of few words, but he was strong. When I chose him to become my second in command, there was no better person to fill the list of skills I had in mind. Zeke was a good man and got along with both my people and the gypsies. While I turned my head towards the fight, I was unable to focus. I could see the hate in Octavia’s eyes and despite my encouragement’s words, Sabine seemed to give up. I knew how much Seth and Cameron meant to her, but I could only hope none of Octavia’s affirmations were true. Anger boiled into my veins while I saw Octavia’s wolf jumping on my mate. Once again I brushed my hair with my fingers, cursing under my breath my inability to stop the fight. “I am not a werewolf. Your laws don’t apply to me,” Cordelia’s words surprised me as she stabbed Octavia’s wolf with the silver ceremonial dagger. “Any news
SabineAs the words left my lips, people who surrounded us began chanting my name. The obvious hate in their eyes towards Octavia fueled my rage, giving me strength. I had to win this fight for all of us. Octavia was the one responsible for the fire that destroyed many lives. A lot of good people had died because of her hate and yet if it wasn’t for her reckless actions, I would have never met my parents. My mother would have continued to be King’s Philip's prisoner while my father struggled in the mines.“Sabine, you can’t fight her. There has to be another way,” Sasha mumbled, interrupting the line of my thoughts. “We both know fighting her is the only way.” I choked out the words straightening my back. “I can’t allow Kade to step down and just give her our pack. It’s his birthright,” I added clenching my fists. “But you..”“If I can have your attention.” King Darius voiced out interrupting her. “As werewolves we live, develop and grow together as a community, a family. We have la
Sabine “There is nothing to be afraid of. You were born for this. It’s your destiny,” my mother whispered low as she gave a light squeeze to my hand. I gave her a small nod while I took a deep breath in my efforts to calm down my racing heart.I straightened my back, pushing my chin high as I turned my head towards my father, signaling to him I was ready for him to open the door. The omegas began to bow their heads in respect while I walked holding my mom’s hand slowly down the decorated path. Everything was perfect. Wooden pillars stood proudly on each side of the alley decorated with green garlands and fairy lights, offering the place a magical vibe. Time seemed to stop for a moment while my eyes found the black ones of the person the Goddess decided to pair me with. My heart skipped a beat as I saw him dressed in a tailored gray suit with a silver button-down shirt that matched my dress, standing on the small stage, waiting…waiting for me. “Friends and family, I would like to sa
I quietly looked at the young women in the mirror, barely able to recognize myself. A confident, strong woman who not long ago was just a naive gipsy girl who had her long chestnut hair braided into a ponytail was now staring back at me.While a happiness sparkle danced in my green eyes, a smile spread across my face, making Sasha growled in annoyance.“Stop moving or I will never be able to finish in time.”I gave her a small nod as I watched her finish her magic. Sasha applied a cherry lipstick to my lips to match the purple eye makeup she chose for tonight’s event.“Sabine, you look beautiful,” mom whispered as she fought back the tears that threatened to roll down her cheeks. “Alma, you are going to ruin your makeup,” Sasha blurted out, making mom shake her head in understanding.I looked at the woman who raised me like I was hers, giving me all the love and affection a mother would give to her child. She looked beautiful with her hair styled into a bun and dressed in a dark blue
SabineThe beautiful view in front of my eyes was nothing in comparison to the sight of my husband. Strong, confident, not to mention handsome. Kade was all mine, and I couldn’t be more grateful. For the first time in my life, I was happy and scared. Petrified, I could say that something might happen and our perfect bubble would burst, returning me to the shell of the person I was while he was asleep.Butterflies danced in my stomach as Kade’s lips covered mine, taking his sweet time. My fingers grabbed the bottom of his sweater pulling him closer, needing him. Was it bad that I wanted the moment to last forever? A moan escaped my lips as Kade deepened his kiss, sending goosebumps down my spine. Every time he kissed me, it was like we kissed for the first time. It consumed me in ways I couldn’t describe.I felt Inna pushing to come forward. Just like me, she wanted time with our mate. I muffled the sob that almost escaped my mouth as Kade broke our kiss, returning to look over the h
KadeMoments later, I was sitting in the office looking at the dusty old photo with me and Alex smiling happily while we set up the first beam of this place. It was our first thing to call our own, and we worked together to put it on the tourism map. I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat, unable to believe he was gone.“Alpha,. Julie told us you wanted to see us,” someone called out as the door opened wide. A curse word left my mouth as I placed down the frame turning towards the door. For me, for Alex, I had to keep fighting for our dreams. Victor entered first, followed closely by Julie, and two young men dressed in nothing but black jeans and blue shirts that had the lodge logo. Behind them, an elderly woman entered, making my heart skip a beat. Years had passed since I saw her, but she still looked good. Miss Abby was for me and Alex like a second mother, scolding us every time we used to stop to check on the lodge.“Didn’t I tell you to call all the people who work here
KadeAs I turned left and exited the main road, the snow continued to fall heavily, making it difficult for me to see. I swallowed the curse words that threatened to leave my lips as I tried to keep the car on the road. Maybe I should have waited for the snow to slow down.“Kade, where are we going?” Sabine asked me, shifting worriedly in her seat.“Patience, Sweetheart” I replied casually, trying to act like it wasn’t a big deal. “It’s a surprise.” I added, unable to hold back the grin that spread across my face imagining the moment I would have her finally alone. As I hit the accelerator pedal, I reached out to Sabine’s hand, entangling our fingers. I took it to my lips and planted a small kiss on her knuckles while I kept my eyes on the road. “We’re almost there,” I mused seeing her cheeks colored in a crimson color.Ever since I woke up from my coma, I had this thought nudging me to take her away from the curious eyes. I knew the Goddess had a plan when she made Sabine my other h
