The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 29
Chapter 29Walking into the pack house, I make a beeline for the dinning room when Quincy steps into the hall and blocks my path, a grim look on his face. I stop where I stand, the smell of food wafting from behind him tempting me to tell him that what ever it is, it can wait. I am hungry.“Asteria wants us upstairs in her office.” He states before I can walk around him on my quest for food. I groan and turn on my heels. If Asteria wants us in her office, then our Alpha has gained some bad news. News that requires her Beta and Head Warrior to handle. Making my way towards the staircase, I stop as pups come running inside with their parents, these ones coming from the ten to fifteen training group.“Slow down before you walk into Beta Brynlee!” Quest calls out, the lanky man running a hand through his hair in frustration as he leans against the open pack house doors.“Asteria linked me. Its bad, isn’t it?” The Head Hunter asks as he comes to Join Quincy and I. I shrug and motion for th

Chapter 30Running through the forest in wolf form, I catch the scent of a deer and pause. The Warriors have had a hard time finding game meat lately and the Omegas in charge of cooking for the pack have had to spend more money in town on meat. I decide to put off returning to the pack house for Tanya’s welcome back party to focus on hunting and bringing in this deer.My mind wanders to the reason why Warriors are having a hard time hunting. It is because the wolves that usually hunt are now gone or planning to leave soon. The second batch of wolves who left for Crescent Phoenix should be arriving there soon either late tonight or early tomorrow morning. Caspian promised that he would let me know when Beta Lilac has received them safely so I am not too worried about them being harmed. Heck, the first batch arrived safely two weeks ago and some even emailed me to thank me for helping them leave Pine Moon.I smirk inwardly thinking about them as I pad through the forest floor careful n

Chapter 31[We still can’t find your father or Tanya.] Caspian links me as I finish dressing. I groan, wondering what the fuck my father is doing. He is the one always sprouting off about making Tanya happy. That I shouldn’t be late for a function when it involves her. Yet here he is missing in action and no one knows where he went.[I will check his office.] I state, exiting my room and making my way down to the second floor. I turn in the direction where my father’s office is situated when someone steps in front of me. I growl, ready for a fight until I notice it is Jett. His eyes look everywhere but at me as he blocks my path and the unease I felt moments early grows.“Jett, I am looking for my father. Move.” I state, trying to get past my father’s Beta.“I already searched down here Rune. Lets just head to the party.” He finally looks into my eye but just for a brief moment before he looks away. I see panic within them and something inside me urges me to continue towards my father

Chapter 32Watching Rune being dragged from the office, I turn to look down at Tanya. She is shaking, tears in her eyes as she slowly dresses. My heart aches for her, for the woman I have fallen for.“He won’t marry me.” She states with a whimper, shivering not from cold, but from fear.“He will. There is a contract and he can’t back out.” I reassure her, tucking my finger under her chin and forcing her to look at me.“Why can’t you marry me Valor. My father will understand.” Tanya begs, stepping closer to me. Her pouty lips are formed into a frown and I find myself unable to stop from lowering mine down to hers and claiming that mouth in a kiss. She moans as my tongue shoves inside, tangling with hers. Pulling away, Tanya’s eyes are filled with lust and I feel myself slowly growing hard. I want to lock the office door and bend her over once more. To hear her scream and moan my name and beg me to fuck her harder.“The pack has already prepared the wedding for you and Rune. If we chang

Chapter 33Staring at the plan for tomorrow afternoon when the new Alpha of Onix Moon arrives, I silently cheer when my cell phone rings and throw the file onto my desk before answering the call. Only a select few were given my number and I have a feeling the call might be Caspian.“Brynlee here.” I answer, catching the sounds of a group of people running in the background.“Brynlee, it’s Jett, Caspian gave me your number.” Recognizing Beta Jett’s voice, I sit up as something inside me nags that this situation is serious. Jett only talked to Asteria while Caspian talked with me during our plans to save those running from Valor’s clutches.“What happened?” I asked, getting up from my office chair and leaving my office.“Something bad. I couldn’t reach Asteria, can you get her on the call.” He replies back, his voice filled with fear and rage. Making my way down the hall. I knock on the door and a moment later Asteria answers for me to come in.“Jett is on the phone.” I state, turning o

Chapter 34Looking out my window, I watch for any signs of Warriors guarding the pack house that might hinder my plans for escape. My bags are already packed with the essentials except for the documents in my safe. I will have to leave those behind if I am forced to climb out the window. For the last few hours I have tried to link Jett or Caspian but my father has kept me blocked. I feel helpless and realize this is how Brynlee must have felt all those weeks ago.Looking at my alarm clock on my night stand I frown when reading the time. It is currently two in the morning and the party should be over now. Valor must have made some excuse as to why I was not there and the pack would have accepted it without any hesitation. That’s fine though, I don’t need to be part of a pack the is complacent with how these two tyrants leading Pine Moon into the ground.My door opens and I whirl around, ready to fight whoever comes through when I notice Caspian standing there, a grin on his face and so

Chapter 35Standing in the foyer of the pack house sipping on a hot cup of coffee, I keep an eye out of the vehicles that belong to the Alpha of Onix Moon. Last night I barely slept with the news of Rune being on house arrest. I was right to assume there was another reason as to why he rejected me, but to learn this reason I would have to meet him face to face.“Do you need a refill, Beta Brynlee?” Turning to see an Omega named Greg coming my way, I smile and hold out my nearly empty mug. He pours freshly brewed coffee into it and I thank him before taking a sip of the straight black coffee.“You seem on edge.” Greg notes and I sigh, turning to look outside the open doors.“I am.” I admit, watching pups run outside chasing a ball.“Between the Onix Moon Alpha and a situation we were made aware of, Crescent Phoenix will be busy for the next few weeks.” Greg hums as he stands beside me, his calming presence lowering my anxiety.“Well, what ever it is that is bothering you, we have your

Chapter 36I let out a sigh of relief as our Warriors lead Alpha Viren and his wolve to the guest house just down the hill behind the pack house. I have a feeling I will be staying here for the next five days and already miss my bed.“How was it?” Quest asks as he hands me a cup of coffee. I groan and lean back on the door frame while Quincy and him look on in amusement.“Small talk and political bullshit. Tomorrow Holton, Asteria and I will be discussing the contracts and land ownership of what they are giving us.” I answer, taking a sip of the caffeinated hot drink.“I don’t like either of them to be honest.” I admit, pushing away from the door and walking inside. Asteria told us to meet her in her office once the Onix Moon wolves were away from the pack house. With the first meeting of Onix Moon done, now it is time to focus on the situation with Jett and the Pine Moon wolves.“It’s us.” I state, opening Asteria’s office door and stepping inside. Asteria is standing by the window,

Walking through the first floor of the dungeon brought back unwelcomed memories. Memories that made me want to become a stronger she-wolf, a stronger Beta. I am glad that unlike those cells Rune, Caspian, and I were held in as pups, going through the life of prisoners just for the greed of a pack of Rogues, these cells were kept clean thanks to Quincy. I am glad that my Pack agrees that no matter who it is, everyone deserves a clean-living space even if that person is a prisoner. Now, staring at the man cuffed to the interrogation chair, I feel my anger and hatred replace the discomfort I feel. This wolf came to us as a Rogue from the Council. Came to our Pack pretending to be excited to join and then turned out to be a spy for Valor, giving that vial man information of Goddess knows what about Crescent Phoenix. Who knows, they could be on their way here, ready to take us out in our sleep without notice.[So why do you need the ice?] I link Gale, getting a deep chuckle from him, the

Watching Brynlee walk into the stone cottage that houses the dungeon entrance, I feel myself grow anxious. Only a handful of people know about her pregnancy and the thought of Devlyn finding out while interrogating him brings a sour taste to my mouth. If we aren’t careful, Devlyn might be able to hand this information on to Valor and place my Mate and unborn pup in even more danger than we are already in.[Ashton, Jett.] I call out through our mind link, feeling it buzz slightly in annoyance.[Let me guess, Devlyn did something stupid?] Jett asks right away. I sigh, turning to face the two men who lean against Brynlee’s truck watching on from a distance.[Yep. Uncle Gale wants you to grab a few buckets of ice and join us for the interrogation. You can use Brynlee’s truck.] I answer back, feeling Ashton’s confusion through the mind link.[Who is Devlyn?] He asks. This time Jett sighs, confirming that he and Ashton will be back with ice before telling Ashton that he will explain everyth

Something feels off. Like the calm before a storm. It is because of this feeling that I find myself unable to focus while staring blankly at my computer screen wondering just what the hell is happening in my Pack to make me feel so uneasy right now.Rune had been stopped by Gale this morning while the alluring scent of apple strudels took all of my attention. I could tell the two were having a serious conversation and before I could walk over and join them, Rune took off. Worried, I had dropped my apple strudel onto a plate and left it on an empty table before rushing towards the Pack House exit when Gale stopped me.“Rune has something he needs to do.” Gale had said just as I managed to catch sight of Rune shifting into his wolf mid-step and racing off towards the border. Gale kept me from following after him, telling me that as his Beta, Rune had a duty to perform for him and that I needed to go perform mine as Asteria’s Beta. He was adamant that I stayed in the Pack House.Reluctan

Slinking through the underbrush of the forest, I try my best to stay hidden in the shadows. I need to leave Crescent Phoenix before it's too late and get as far away from any Packs associated with Crescent Phoenix, Pine Moon and Blood Claws. A twig snaps somewhere behind me and I freeze, trying my best to calm my rapidly beating heart while I focus on sensing the person that has been watching me. When I sense nothing, I breathe a sigh of relief and bolt to the right hopefully growing closer to the edge of Crescent Phoenix’s territory.Sometime last night I felt a pair of eyes watching my every movement. It was during dinner at the Pack House, Carolyn and I had just reported in what role we would like in Crescent Phoenix to Luan Gale and were plating up some dinner when I felt the prickling sensation of being watched washed over me. For a moment I thought it was paranoia from dealing with Valor up until that last phone call, but then that gaze followed me throughout dinner and all the

Watching Brynlee flitter about the cottage getting ready for the day, I sip my coffee by the dining table and try not to smile to brightly. Last night Brynlee spent time teaching me about the basics of living alone starting with laundry. I thought the process of cleaning and folding clothes was a difficult task but found it surprisingly easy the moment Brynlee showed me how to turn the machines on and how to disperse the laundry detergent into the washing machine. The hard part was learning how to fold my clothes. Brynlee had warned me that my laundry was my responsibility. That we may be working on our relationship but she was not my caretaker. She said that I would need to learn these skills before our pup came and that once our pup came, she would not be raising the pup alone like how Valor left my mother to raise me alone. That part stung but she is right. If I am to be a good Mate and father, then I will help her with the chores and take on an active role in raising our pup. I w

Sitting in my living room, my leg bouncing due to being nervous, I sip on the camomile tea while I wait for Rune to return. After he agreed to move in with me for the time being while we deal with Devlyn, Rune drove me home in my truck before taking it to the dorms so that he could pack his things and bring them here. That was about an hour ago and in that time I prepared one of the two remaining bedrooms for him to take. He may be my Mate, but I am not comfortable sharing a room with him yet.The door to the cottage opens and I turn in time to find Rune walking in with a duffle bag slung over his shoulder and a single box that he carries in his arms.“Is that all you have?” I asked, shocked by the small amount of items that Rune brought.“No, I have two more bags to grab from the truck. I wasn’t able to bring much when I left Pine Moon but this box is filled with stuff I gained while being part of Crescent Pheonix.” He admits with a sheepish smile. My heart aches as I think back to h
The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 105
A feeling of unease settles over me as I watch out the window of my office. Rune had sent me a link an hour ago warning me that there is something wrong with a Rogue that the Council sent over and to be weary of those wolves for now. When I asked him who to look out for, he told me he will explain later and gave me no further details than that. I can’t help but worry that Tanya sent a spy. I wouldn’t put it past the conniving bitch to pull something like this, especially if it meant learning where Rune and I are and killing the two of us without a trace of who the culprit is. Hell, I could even see her demanding her father to send a spy here instead and make a fanfare of my death. A death that would cause a war painting me a martyr.“Brynlee?” Jumping as a hand lands on my shoulder, I turn and without thinking I throw a punch towards the person who has just grabbed me when the scent of mint and vanilla wraps around me. My punch is caught in a gentle hold and I find myself relaxing whe

“That fucking bastard!” I snarl out, throwing my phone against the wall. Anger fills me as I think about how Devlyn, a trusted Warrior, betrayed me because the blood pact that I forced upon him was fulfilled. That snake used this opportunity to escape Pine Moon right from under my nose and I gave him the fucking opportunity to be able to do so.“Darling?” The door to my office opens and Tanya comes rushing inside, her concern for me clear for all to see. Her appearance settles me slightly as I look at the slight bump growing on her stomach and I know that I cannot let my rage take over and accidentally hurt her and the heir growing in her womb in the process. As angry as I am with that snake Devlyn, I cannot take my anger out on my pregnant-soon-to-be-mate.“I heard you snarling, are you okay?” She asks, coming to my side and pressing her hand to my cheek. I reach out, wrapping an arm around her waist, and pull Tanya towards me. I take a deep breath, breathing in Tanya’s scent, and fo

Watching as Gale, Jett, and Rune leave the guest house, I wonder just how in the world did I get lucky enough to find all of the people Alpha Valor is hunting for in one Pack. As far as we knew, Rune and Brynlee had been spotted leaving Onix Moon, now named Shadow Rose, after Alpha Viren was killed by the now Alpha Titus. From there, our men informed us that Brynlee and Rune took refuge in Crescent Phoenix as it is closest Pack to Shadow Rose.Imagine my shock when I climbed off the bus to find Asteria, Gale, Jett, Brynlee, Rune, and Caspian standing in the crowd of wolves as they welcomed the Rogues sent by the Council and the Crescent Phoenix Council Representative Alastor and his men to the Pack while we were shown to the guest house to get settled in by a few Warriors and Omegas. It wasn’t till the welcome dinner that I was told that Asteria is the mysterious Alpha Rose and her Beta – Beta Lilac – is Brynlee herself. It seems that there is more to why these two ladies kept their i
