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

I appreciate the foraging scene. People would be much better off in an emergency if they learned how to spot edible plants in the wild.

    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

  • The Howling Heart's Forgiveness   Chapter 39

    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

    Chapter 41Sitting at the meeting table in front of Asteria and Gale, I watch their face as their expressions morph from shock, to curiosity, to disgust, to shock again. I can tell that they were in the dark just as much as I was with all this new information, including the abuse Rune faced in Valor’s hands and pity fills me for my ex. With two hours before the meeting between Alpha Viren and us to discus about the attack his father performed on Golden Fang and the reparations owed to us, I decided to link the two to meet me in the sound proof room and brought my laptop.“Who else knows about this?” Gale finally asks, breaking the long silence. Removing the mug of coffee from my lips, I look at the Alpha couple and notice a heaviness in their eyes. This information is a lot to take in, even for me. But if this is all true, then that means Rune did what he did to protect Pine Moon.“Quest but if you look at the C.C list that was sent to this fake email, you can see that Rune sent it to

    Chapter 42Staring at the busses and vans sent by Crescent Phoenix as they pull into the parking lot, I watch as my wolves bounce with excitement. We have spent a total of three days here relaxing but also watching over our shoulders with fear in case my father came looking for us.“Alpha Rune?” A man asks as he steps down from the bus and makes his way towards me.“Just Rune please, mister?” I answer, stretching my hand out to this wolf. He scoffs at my hand and walks over to Caspian, hugging the man with a wide grin on his face.“Caspian! Finally joining the pack I see?” The man steps towards Caspian and pulls him into the hug, the two wolves seeming like best friends.“Yeah. Pine Moon has nothing for me and Lilac is at Crescent Phoenix.” Caspian answers as a few more wolves step from the vans and bus. A total of eight wolves. Another one steps towards me, this one burlier than the others with a silent disposition.“Don’t mind Ash. He is just protective of a mutual friend we all kno

    Chapter 43Watching the cars of Onix Moon drive away, I let out a sigh of relief and plop down onto the pack house steps. The last five days have been hectic between creating a peace treaty with Alpha Viren, showing our visitors around specific buildings and trying to keep Alpha Viren in check – especially with how his lust towards me was openly shown.A few times I had to break up a fight or two cause by Onix Moon’s wolves goading one of my own, and I promptly sent the offending party to our prison cell for a night to cool off. Alpha Viren was not happy when I did this but Asteria and I told him to keep his wolves in check or leave. He grumbled and back down after that and on the third day of their visit they did not cause anymore fights. The only wolf that was willing to be friendly was Tristan. I even invited the Beta to a game of poker at my cottage where Quincy and I robbed him and a few of our friends blind at the game, gaining just over three hundred dollars each.Last night we

    Chapter 44Sitting in my vehicle, I wait patiently for my men to deliver me what I want. Coming to Crescent Phoenix was not a waste, even if it meant I had to give land and money to Alpha Asteria for my father’s blunder. What I did gain is a woman that would become a fitting Luna. Brynlee Eclipse is not my Goddess given Mate, but she is a she-wolf any man would desire. With care for her people and a quick wit, Brynlee is certainly someone that will grow a pack and right now I need that someone by my side.Staring at my phone while I wait, I read over that idiot’s confession once more. I knew that Alpha of Pine Moon was a fool like my father but to think he would force his pup to reject Brynlee is something only someone mentally deranged would do. Yes, Tanya Cross comes with the backing of Blood Claws but that is nothing compared to the power Brynlee possesses.“Alpha Viren, they are here.” My driver calls out to me, a smile in his tone. I smile too as I wait for my delivery. Soon the

    Chapter 45Following the GPS route, I turn off of the smooth country road onto a rough gravel path. On all sides of the vehicle is the dense forest that Crescent Phoenix is located in. From what I have been told by Edison on the drive here, there it a clearing about thirty minutes west from here where the Alpha has been working on creating a decoy town by a lake. It is a big project that has will need a lot of planning and approval from the Human government. Once Crescent Phoenix can get the approval, the building will begin and many Omegas and some Warriors plan to move there to make it a tourist town.I am excited to meet this Alpha. She sounds like a good fit for this pack after the attack they went through. Has helped it rise from the ashes to the pack it is today and has given many wolves a second chance in just a short amount of time. I can honestly say that I can’t wait to get to know everyone here before leaving to find Brynlee.“Edison.” I call out to the man in the back who

    “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

    The guest house Dining Hall fills within five minutes of announcing our arrival and I am happy the guest house has air conditioning or else the room would have become stuffy with thirty-three wolves inside. Carolyn had only gathered the Rogues the Council brought as the Willow Bark wolves already had accommodations ready and waiting for them for after their initiation which will be taking place soon and Jett will be joining the Crescent Pheonix with the Willow Bark wolves and becoming the Pack’s Theta, the Third in command who will be working under Uncle Gale and me.I take a deep breath, trying to see if the familiar scent that has been bothering me since stepping into the guest house and smirk. It seems this wolf really is part of the group scent by the Council as their scent is stronger here. I know that they are in the room with us now but I cannot find them with so many scents from the other wolves mixing together that their scent blends in. It seems this mysterious wolf’s locati

    Following Jett and Uncle Gale outside the Pack House – albeit against my will – I try my best to hold back the excitement inside me. Brynlee had called me her Mate and this means she is starting to trust me more and more each day. That the pain of the rejection is slowly fading from her heart and that means I am slowly winning her love once again. Being trained as a Beta is just a bonus to me as being with Brynlee has been my goal since I decided to leave Pine Moon.“So what are we doing first?” I ask as Gale leads Jett and me away from the Pack House and down a familiar path.“We are going to check in with our soon-to-be Pack Mates. Some have found their Mates within the Crescent Phoenix and we would like to see if they would like to move in with one another while we also plan where to put some of the single wolves.” Gale answers, looking back at me over his shoulder. My footsteps falter for a moment and I nearly trip over my own feet. This is something a Luna would do while -- figu

    Watching the Hummer with the Council Logo drive off, I let out a sigh of relief. The interviews with all of the wolves who had experienced Valor’s and Jonnah’s destructive behavior had gone well albeit a few breakdowns and tears that caused us to pause the interviews for everyone to take a few deep breaths and compose themselves. Many wolves originally from Pine Moon and Willow Bark stepped forward, giving Alastor new insight into what life was like in both Packs and how they were terrified to even breathe the wrong way because of Viren.I was surprised to see three of Crescent Phoenix wolves come forward near the end, these wolves explaining that they had met both Valor and Jonnah on separate occasions and told their own experiences. With all that was gathered over the last six days, it is guaranteed that Jonnah, Valor, and Tanya will be facing their upcoming execution as soon as possible.“When will we get the news that they are dead?” Quincy asks as he stands beside me, his anger a

    Sitting in my office, I watch from the side as our Council Representative – Alastor Levines – speaks with Milan Berhardt. Quincy is there, holding her hand as he silently supports her while Milan tells her side of events when Valor attacked Willow Bark. Her voice cracks with emotions and she has to take a moment to compose herself as Alastor passes a box of tissues to the she-wolf. This has been a trend with many of the wolves sine the interviews started two days ago.Four days ago, Alastor came with a few other council members, the group bringing along thirty new wolves who would be joining Crescent Phoenix next week. As usual, we had welcomed everyone to the Pack with a bonfire, the Crescent Phoenix wolves excited to welcome in these new members as it means we are growing stronger. We partied the night away and showed the guests to their rooms, deciding to put the six Council Wolves in the Pack House and the soon-to-be new members in the guest house where Milan and Quincy could keep

    Watching the wolves line up in front of the Council Headquarters, I try my best to plug my nose. Everyone here is a Rogue waiting to board and take a seat on the buses the Council provided for us. We will all be leaving to join either Shadow Rose or Crescent Phoenix within the hour and part of me is excited for this change.I had been turned Rogue involuntarily three weeks ago from Pine Moon. Alpha Valor had needed someone who could infiltrate Crescent Phoenix when news of his son being part of this pack reached him. At first, I had thought of refusing this job, but the prospect of leaving Pine Moon for a bit and possibly finding my Mate won and I agreed to become a spy for my Alpha.I was forced to make a blood pact as soon as I turned Rogue so that Alpha Valor could continue to control me while I went to infiltrate Crescent Phoenix and report to Alpha Valor who the Alpha and Beta are as well as confirm if his son Rune is there. Once I have done that, the blood pact would dissolve an

    Watching Brynlee in the corner of the training room talking with Odette as the two she-wolves work out, I find myself smiling and thinking about how this is how life should be. I spent years under my father’s grasp scared for the destruction of my Pack if I went against his wishes and nearly lost the best damn thing ever placed into my life because of this.“Need a sparing partner?” Jumping, I whirl around intending to punch the person that snuck up on me only to stop my fist from colliding with Quincy’s nose. The Head Warrior smiles at me sheepishly, neither flinching nor retaliating from my sudden attack.“Sorry, Quincy. I didn’t hit you, did I?” I mutter out awkwardly, lowering my fist as Milan slinks around me, amusement in her eyes while she walks towards my Mate and her friend.“It’s fine man. Besides, I think I deserve the beating with how I have treated you these last few weeks.” Quincy replies, shrugging as he leans against the wall beside us. We stand there awkwardly for a m

    Stretching out under the willow tree with the wind flowing through my fur, I enjoy watching my Pack Mates coming and going from the Pack House while I wait for Rune. My work had only taken me about an hour and a half to complete and I decided to wait outside for my Mate after having lunch.“I thought you would wait for me in your office.” Lifting my head off my paws, I look to find Rune coming under the willow tree, looking at me in amusement. My tail slumps slowly on the grassy ground and I let out a yawn.[I ended up being done early and decided to enjoy the nice weather in my fur form.] I answer through the link, getting an eye roll from Rune.“I see. Let me go shift and I will be right back.” He sighs out, running a hand through his black hair. I nod, resting my head on my paws and closing my eyes. I have been tired lately, the tiredness being a mix of running around preparing to welcome new wolves with Asteria as well as worrying about my pregnancy, and relaxing under the leaves
