The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 33
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,

Chapter 37“Beta Brynlee.” Turning at the sound of my name, I notice Beta Tristan walking towards me with a smile on his face. I nod in response, waiting for the visiting wolf to grow closer before I say anything. He has freshened up since the last time I saw him and his Alpha at lunch, his blonde hair slicked back with hair gel and his clothes fresh.“How did you find the guest house?” I ask, trying to create small talk once Beta Tristan has stopped just in front of me.“It is nice and clean. Alpha Asteria did an amazing job providing accommodations.” I laugh, turning see Gale speaking with a few Omegas as they prepare the field we stood on to become a community garden.“Asteria had nothing to do with it. Gale is our Luan – male Luna.” I begin, clarifying what a Luan is when I notice Beta Tristan looking at me in confusion.“And he takes care of the duties a Luna usually does. He relishes in the home making role and it just suits Gale.” Beta Tristan nods, looking towards the directio

Chapter 38Staring out the window to my motel room, I watch my pack mates swim in the pool happily. It’s been a few hours since we arrived here. Jett was the one to greet Caspian and I when we climbed off the bus and lead us to the motel just twenty minutes from the bus station. He had used my card to rent out the motel for four days depending on how long it took the Crescent Phoenix wolves to get here and promised the staff that even if we leave early, there will still be a large tip.I did not correct him even though it is my money he is spending because Jett did the right thing. The motel only had twenty-five rooms which meant some of my wolves shared a room. Luckily for me, our group consisted of a few pairs of Mates so that issue was resolved easily. After gaining the keycard to my room, I instantly closed the door and fell asleep, the exhaustion from the last few months after rejecting Brynlee combined with my mad dash of escape finally getting to me. It wasn’t until I woke up a

Chapter 39A loud roar sounds from Valor’s office and I shudder. It is the same type of roar Valor let out when he learned Rune was gone. Around eight in the morning we discovered the Warriors that Guarded Rune’s room unconscious and the tell tale sent of wolfsbane emanating from a wound in their neck. It became a man hunt to find him and that was when we realized many of Pine Moon wolves have disappeared, including Beta Jett and that waste of space Caspian.For twelve hours, Valor’s wolves searched high and low in Pine Moon territory before expanding their search to the towns and city near by. We located Caspian’s car with ease at a used car shop where the owner – a weak human – explained the boys sold the car before leaving. From there, we lost their scent as the smell of motor oil and gasoline was too strong. Some of our wolves reached out through the pack link but was met with a strong force. It seems Rune was hell bent on protecting these wolves and yet they were only a small amo

Chapter 40Helping Odette bring the last of the salads out to the table, I turn back and smile as I watch the Pine Moon wolves that will be initiated into the back next week mingle with the Crescent Phoenix wolves. They look like a pack already, the two groups happily chatting about training with some wanting to join the patrol shift tomorrow to get a feel of the territory. Unfortunately the cheery atmosphere ends there as many of the Crescent Phoenix wolves that used to be Golden Fang stare at the few Onix Moon wolves with distain and hatred as our guests stick to themselves. I knew tonight would pose a challenge as there was no arrange seating at our bonfires, but to see so much hostility really worries me.“Brynlee!” Turning to the left, I see Quest, Quincy and surprisingly Tristan walking towards me, the three looking thick as thieves as they each hold a glass of moon shine in their hands.“Enjoying yourselves?” I laugh out, watching Tristan take a swig of the alcoholic drink.“Ve

The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 133
Rushing towards the boardroom while frantically clipping my hair into a bun, I dodge an Omega with their arms full of clean linen. A week has passed since Shadow Rose came to train with Crescent Phoenix and in that week Quincy has caused a fight and now lay in the infirmary after his punishment, being chained with silver cuffs for three days while staying in the dungeons. Ashton hasn’t left Devlyn’s side as the latter has yet to wake from a coma, and Quest has told Asteria that he and Ashton have talked to me and wish to leave the Pack when Rune and I take over Crescent Phoenix. Add on Rune finding out he can see visions of the future and that this power might be inherited by our pups in the future and I have no idea how I am still standing after the week I have had.Not only that, but today I had a weekly checkup with Jasmin to see how my pregnancy is progressing which made me late to our war strategy meeting now that the two Packs are slowly working as a team. After our foraging ses

Standing on Quincy’s front porch, I hesitate before knocking on the door. Caspian had told me before leaving the truck that Jett is staying here with his niece for now as Milan is shaken up by her Mate’s actions from today. I can’t blame him for wanting to be there for Milan, the only family he has left. I would be furious in Jett’s shoes and I would have marched down to where Quincy is being kept and throttled some sense into him by now whether Aunt Asteria liked it or not.The door opens and Jett appears looking weary and pissed. His mouth opens – most likely to yell at whoever is at the door – only for his angry appearance to morph into surprise.“Rune. Caspian.” He calls out with a sigh, looking at each of us in turn.“What brings you two here?”“I came to see how Milan is doing. Rune came to talk to you.” Caspian answers with a small smile. Jett hesitates, his eyes glazing over and we wait for a few minutes to pass figuring her was linking his niece to see if she wanted any visit

Helping Brynlee pack the mesh bags into a wagon Greg – one of our Omegas – brought to help us bring our foraged plants to the Pack House, I smile as I hear many of the Crescent Phoenix wolves chatter with the Shadow Rose wolves. It sounds like everyone had fun learning about foraging today, some even became excited when they found a poisonous plant that we could use in the upcoming battle. Caspian was the one to pick these plants with careful and precise movements since Brynlee was pregnant and unable to touch them while Brynlee explained the use of this poison as it has a similar characteristic to wolfsbane, The only difference is that this poison, a plant with red veins and black-tipped leaves called wolfsblood, will cause the person’s blood to curdle in their system in high enough doses leaving the victim to die a quick and painful death.“Ready to head home?” Brynlee asks as I place the last bag into the wagon.“Actually, I was going to find Jett and talk to him about this mornin

Standing in front of the tree line with Warriors and Hunters from Crescent Phoenix mingling with Tristan’s men, I watch as the tense atmosphere from this morning that Quincy caused slowly disappears. Training had been canceled so that Asteria could deal with Quincy and rip him a new one and Quest was still with Ashton, keeping an eye on our friend and unable to help with training. He had linked me twenty minutes ago to inform me that Jasmine had broken the news to Ashton that Devlyn possibly might be in a coma but Ashton’s presence will help him come out of it faster as the Mate Bond will help heal Devlyn.I had given Quest permission to take three days off to help Ashton as well as have him report back to me if Ashton tries to leave Devlyn’s side to try and find Quincy to pay him back for what Quincy did to Devlyn. After Quest confirmed he would keep an eye on Ashton, I went out in search of Tristan to make good on my promise of teaching his wolves to forage in the forest as well as

Standing to my feet, the chair I sat on falling backward, I rush to the front door calling out to Rune but I am too late. He is already racing towards the Pack House while Caspian stands at the door. Anger radiates off my friend and for a moment I wonder what he said to cause Rune to rush off like that.“We need to get to the Pack House.” He states, turning to look in the direction Rune left.“Quincy beat Devlyn up pretty badly and Quest is keeping Ashton at bay. He wants to destroy Quincy for harming his Mate.” Caspian explains. I nod, grabbing my truck keys from the hook and rushing to my truck. I forgo the seat belt and drive off as soon as Caspian climbs into the vehicle before he can even close the door.The tires kick up gravel from my driveway in their wake while Caspian holds on for dear life, his eyes wide as I drive through the forest faster than usually allowed. Rune has shifted into his wolf form by now, his body just ahead of the truck as I catch up.Deciding to have Casp

Moving around the kitchen, a smile on my face, I watch the bedroom door to see when Brynlee will wake. Last night had been a blast seeing Tristan and Michael again but I had been worried when Brynlee had gone off with Ashton and Quest alone. I waited patiently beside my god-brother while counting down the minutes until Brynlee would return to my side.When she did come back out, she had a worried air about her but brushed it off when I asked. Of course, Quest stood beside her, his eyes scanning the crowd like a watchdog. I knew these two bonded as friends and felt happy to know he was keeping my Mate safe when I was not around, but the way he refused to budge and talk with other wolves worried me even more.“Rune, is that pancakes I smell?” Brynlee calls out as she exits the bedroom rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand. She looks so tired yet adorable and I can’t help but move to her side and pull my Mate in for a hug.“Yes. I just finished making apple cinnamon pancakes.” I an

The door to my bedroom is slammed shut and a small snarl escapes my lips. I know it is a warning by the Warrior who led me here after leaving Valor’s office but I can’t help but think that I am nothing more than a prisoner as I know said Warrior is standing outside, guarding my door so that I don’t leave without my Mate knowing. Everyone knows that Valor is not taking any chances when it comes to the unborn pup inside me. I know that he plans to get me pregnant as soon as I can after giving birth to this pup and the thought revolts me but not as much as the plan he has to keep me on my back in bed pleasuring him to his heart’s content instead of allowing me to perform the duties of a Luna.I regret mating that misogynistic prick. Regret making a pass at him after turning nineteen in hopes of gaining some form of power inside this Goddess forsaken Pack. I knew back then Rune didn’t want me. Didn’t want to marry me. He is right that everything that has happened is my fault.I got my mot

Watching the messages fly in as I converse with the other Alphas around me, I grin and lean back in my chair. Devlyn may have been a cowardly traitor for leaving as soon as he completed the blood pacts but his information has come in handy at least.I had worried about my sister coming back to claim Pine Moon as her Pack when she left. Worried about the truth behind mine and Clairice’s mating coming to light when Jett abandoned Pine Moon the moment that bastard Rune did. Now, I no longer care as the threat they pose will soon be gone within seven weeks. Add on that the doctor confirmed last night that Tanya is indeed having a boy has made the relief I feel immeasurable. My bloodline is secured, and my descendants will continue to rule over Pine Moon for years to come.As soon as Tanya has this pup I will make sure to put another one in her womb. She will only know the bedroom and the birthing room. She will raise our pups while I take care of the Pack during the day and she will satis

Watching Rune chat happily with Tristan and Gale while Delilah reclines by the bonfire with Asteria, Odette, and Avery, I take a deep breath and sip on the apple juice in my hands. It is the calm before the storm that war brings. A peace that I wish would last and could bring my pup into.Dinner had been a fun fan fair, the Omegas that volunteered to be on duty were quick to keep the buffet filled while Crescent Phoenix wolves came and went to mingle with the Shadow Rose wolves. I spent that time getting to know Avery and Delilah, finding myself laughing so hard that I couldn’t even drink my apple juice without nearly spitting it onto the table. It was during this laughing fit that Avery introduced me to her Mate, Jamal, a Beta wolf who was kicked from his Pack in Jamaica for not wanting to give up his right as Beta to his pack for his Alpha’s brother-in-law.He thought that coming to Canada would bring better luck for him as his cousin Delilah was here. He thought coming to see his c
