The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 57
Chapter 57Feeling groggy and like my body refuses to listen to me, I wonder just what has gotten into me. I want to go back to sleep, but instinct screams at me that something is wrong. I definitely had been drugged again, that I can tell, but it isn’t wolfsbane coursing through me. Someone grips me tighter to them, forcing me to bolt up in the bed I lay in. The arms holding me let me go and I look to find Alpha Viren looking up at me with an amused smirk while I try to sort out what happened. The last thing I remembered was us talking over lunch in his office. He went back to work while I decided to read a book but my eyes felt heavy and then nothing. The food! The drugs were in the food!“You fucking drugged me again!” I yell, pushing myself off the bed to distance myself from the man who has held me hostage.“You promised me you wouldn’t do that!” I continue, eyeing him with hatred as I reach for the link Asteria and I share, nearly sighing with relief when I realize I can still t

Chapter 58Staring at the border protected by the men Viren trusts, I look to Tristan for any guidance. My Aunt had called me five minutes ago that she got into contact with Brynlee detailing that Viren is advancing his plans to Mate her. This nearly sent me into a frenzy and Tristan had to calm me down before I ruined our plans.“So what do we do now?” I ask as we eye the men walking along the border again. Something big must be happening if they are keeping the borders so secured and the only thing I can think of is Viren has made his move. If we don’t hurry, Brynlee will be lost to me for good.“Asteria said Crescent Phoenix has already surrounded the small decoy town Onix Moon owns and is working on evacuating the humans there.” Tristan muses.“This means the humans should be out of harms way by the time the Crescent Phoenix wolves start fighting Viren’s men.” Something flickers in his eyes and he lets out a low whistle. Before I can ask what that whistle was for, wolves pop out o

Chapter 59I am dragged back up the stairs of the pack house towards Viren’s room. The wolves are not so gentle when handling me, causing my broken bones to ache further and forces me to bite my lip to hold back the pained whimpers that want to escape. I have tried for the last few minutes while thrashing about in hopes of getting free to contact Asteria, but I keep slamming into a brick wall in my mind. It is not as strong as the dam I built to keep my emotions in check after the rejection and I feel like if I just kept at it, it would crack.My broken bones are thankfully slowly healing while I try to reach Asteria, giving me some form of hope in fighting against these men, but my concentration is shattered when I am thrown onto an all to familiar bed I woke on earlier and the jarring landing causes extreme pain from my not-yet-healed wounds.The wolves that carried me are quick in securing me to the bed. I do my best, thrashing about through the pain and landing a few good kicks to

Chapter 60My body shivers from the heat coursing through me. The flames grow stronger, threatening to consume me and the haziness of my mind makes it hard for me to figure out where Rune is taking me. I know we are away from Onix Moon now by the power I felt when we crossed their pack border.“Hang on a little longer baby girl.” Rune’s voice pushes through the haze, making me focus for just a moment. I pull my face away from his neck, his scent of mint and vanilla being the water that keeps the flames at bay. His eyes are scanning our surroundings and I finally am aware enough to learn that we are in a forest. He looks down at me, a smile on his scared face and guilt ripples through me. The wounds I gave him the day he rejected me should have healed by now. Instead, four perfect claw marks scar his face.“You hanging in there?” He asks, his voice distorted by the haze. I nod, hiding my face into his neck again and feel his heart beat quicken. The forest is still. Quiet. It’s like no

Chapter 61Brynlee lays below me, her body spent from the first round of her heat. I know it is not over though as her pussy clenches around my knot. I will be buried inside her until I stop cumming but it wont be the end. Her pheromones are so strong, making my mind hazy. I know if this was under any other condition, she would suffer through her heat alone, but this one was man made. Viren forced her to have one so that he could claim her. But I wont do that to her. As her Mate, I will provide the sexual satisfaction her body craves but until she tells me to, I will not mark my Brynlee.Her walls finally stops twitching around me and I sigh with relief. Now that she has fully passed out, my own cock will calm down and the knot will be released. All I need to do is wait. Burying my face in Brynlee’s neck, I breath in her scent. Goddess it is like an aphrodisiac right now and it takes everything in me not to fuck her while she is asleep. She moans as I lick her skin, the sweet and salt

Chapter 62Cold air brushes over my sore body making me shiver. Every part of me feels like I have been hit with a baseball bat but surprisingly nothing is broken. My body curls in on itself, trying hard to keep what little warmth my body has left. Something warm and smelling like mint and vanilla is draped over me, making my tense body relax. Taking a deep breath, I smell the burning wood of a campfire and I groan when I try to wiggle closer to it.“Shit.” A deep voice curses, their strong hands pulling me away from my target.“Brynlee, you need to stay still.” The voice softly warns. I growl at this voice but the sound is meek. It is like all my strength has been zapped leaving me without any fight. But the arms feel safe and secured, so I snuggle closer.“I know you’re cold, but just rest.” The voice continues, soothing and comforting me and as the person hold me tighter, I feel their warms seeping through what confines me and relax further. The voice is right though, I am cold and

Chapter 63I relish in the feel of the wind through my fur as I race towards the direction of Crescent Phoenix. Rune is hot on my heels, his eyes never leaving my body. I know he does this due to me still being weak but I would prefer it if he kept his eyes on the forest in case someone attacks us. I still can’t believe he and I spent all that time in the cave fucking. If Alpha Viren hadn’t been killed, I would have definitely marched down to Onix Moon just to kill that bastard even if I am scared to return.Just after shifting and leaving the cave, I had linked Asteria that I am fine and was on my way home. She was glad to hear from me, relieved to know that I stayed un-marked and then informed me that she plans to stay in Onix Moon for another week to help Tristan take over the pack. From what she told me, it has been seven days since Rune saved me. In that time, Tristan - with the help of Asteria - had interrogated all of Alpha Viren’s men. Many have been executed while others prov

Chapter 64“I can take her to the pack infirmary.” Someone argues in hushed whispers as strong arms scoop me into their embrace.“You’re still a Rogue. It’s easier for me to take her in.” Another voice, the one the arms belongs to, retorts with a snort. It is clear to me that my deep sleep is now over as I open my eyes to find Quincy holding me and Rune glaring at him.“How about I just walk in there myself.” I state, watching both me jump in surprise. I cling to Quincy for a moment, scared he will drop me and glare at my friend as he apologetically sets me on my feet. Looking between both men, I can see that there is a spark of rivalry brewing between them and I take a deep breath before I yell at the two idiot males that seem to be contending for my attention. Something inside me tells me that my some-what quiet life is going to become hectic now that Rune is in the picture again.“Are you going to be joining Crescent Phoenix?” I turn to look at Rune, asking the one question I am pr

Glaring at the email before me, I suppress the growl threatening to spill. Our council representative has been hard at work investigating Valor, Tanya, and Jonnah to the point they have begun questioning the destruction of smaller Packs surrounding Blood Claws and Pine Moon. What is worse is that other than Willow Bark, no other survivors have been found from any of these smaller Packs that were destroyed. For all the Council knows, they have either become Rogues hiding deep in the forests in wolf territory or blending with Humans in the many cities.One thing is for sure, Jonnah and Valor have committed more crimes than we originally thought.Reading further along the email, my eyes widen and my hand instinctively reaches for my stomach. Judging by the images attached to the email and the medical report the Council’s spies were able to obtain, it seems that I am not the only one expecting a pup. Now the question is, whose is it?“Brynlee, are you in here?” The door to my office opens
The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 86
Watching Brynlee drive away, I wait for her truck to disappear from my view before deciding to head to my dorm room for the night and get some much-needed rest. Today has been an eventful day that has left me reeling with exhaustion. I had just finished patrol when a sudden urge of danger coursed through me. At first, I thought the warning was because Rogues had crossed our borders into the pack territory, threatening the pack. When I realized it was an internal warning from the Mate Bond, my wolf instincts took over and I rushed directly towards the danger warning without thinking. All I could think of was protecting Brynlee.’I knew I was being irrational when I barged into the training facility without warning. I knew how much of a prick I was when I swept Brynlee into my arms and carried her away from everyone without her consent, but my body kept moving on its own. I felt like a man possessed but until I knew Brynlee was safe in her den – in her cottage – I couldn’t relax.As soon

Reading the list of thirty Rogues looking to join Cresent Phoenix, I focus on the skills each wolf has listed. Some wolves come with skills such as farming and manual labor. These are definitely Omegas that left their old Pack for one reason or another. The others are a mix of Hunters and Warriors that would be good to growing the Pack’s strength. Hell, some of our current Pack Mates might be able to find their Goddess given Mates if we accepted these wolves into Crescent Phoenix.Moving to look through the applications list, I note down that out of the thirty Rogues, ten came from two Packs that I remember dealing with when I was in Pine Moon – Flaming Canine and Snarling Spruce. These Packs are ruled similarly to Pine Moon with a patriarchal rule where she-wolves are aa lesser class, only meant to produce pups and take care of the elderly and males are meant to be obeyed without any questions or doubt.I have a feeling that these wolves left for their own personal growth and safety.

Watching Quincy leave the office, I walk around Asteria’s desk and take the seat he previously occupied. Asteria watches me as she does, her eyes filled with un-asked questions.“What did Rune do to you earlier?” She asks and I sigh. I am going to kick Quincy’s ass later.“I was training with Odette when the Mate Bond let out a danger warning to Rune. He came barging in and took me away to my cottage.” I answer, watching as Asteria’s eyes widen. She subtly looks down and I stiffen in my seat as her eyes land on my stomach. I keep my hands on the armrest of the chair, doing everything I can not to confirm her suspicion while Quest watches on in shock.“So that’s why everyone has been talking about Rune being a possessive ass hole.” He laughs out, making me roll my eyes.“He definitely is an asshole.” I agree with a grumble, crossing my arms over and letting out an annoyed sigh. Asteria looks away from me with a small smile on her lips as she turns her attention to Quest.“When it comes

Helping Milan pack up the remaining items in the kitchen, I catch site of a few pups helping to bring boxes and bags out to the charter bus where Ashton and Eddison are waiting to load the storage compartments.It has been six days since we arrived at the farmhouse and after realizing how much packing needs to be done, Gale and I had called Asteria asking if we could delay our return to the pack to sort through what Milan and the others will be bringing with us on our return trip home. Luckily, Asteria agreed that us staying would be beneficial to the Willow Bark wolves and just asked that we call her before we make the drive back home.“This should be the last of it.” Milan says as she stands, a smile on her face.“So we should be ready to move out soon?” I ask my niece. She looks around, taking her time to answer as her smile falls and a hint of melancholy washes over her. I know she is sad about leaving the farm, the only safe place she has known since Valor attacked Willow Bark.

Standing in front of Brynlee’s cottage, I knock on the door and wait for her to answer. After confronting Rune, I had planned to talk to her but duty called and I had to deal with wolves on our borders. It was spies of Pine Moon once again trying to sneak in and catch a glimpse of our Luna and Beta.News had spread that Crescent Phoenix had helped Onix Moon liberate themselves from the tyranny of Viren and people were becoming increasingly curious of our female leaders. It took longer than I had thought to deal with them, the enemy wolves fighting my men with everything they could. One managed to escape capture while the other two decided to take their own lives by slitting their throats before we could restrain them.“Quincy? What are you doing here?” Brynlee’s voice calls from behind me and I turn to see her coming up the path. The faint smell of rubbing alcohol comes off her and I frown. It seems she is just coming back from the Pack Infirmary.“I wanted to see how you are doing.

Curled up in bed, hand on my flat stomach, I wonder if I am truly pregnant. It could be one of Rune’s tricks with him trying to get back together with me, but my instinct tells me he wasn’t lying with how overprotective and possessive he became. The worst part is that the bond became whole once more when he announced I am with pup. I can feel it even now, humming with new vitality as if the rejection never happened.[Hey Brynlee, are you okay?] Caspian’s voice rings through my mind, taking me out of my thoughts.[I…I am dealing with something.] I answer hesitantly, getting a hum in response.[Does it have anything to do with how Rune behaved?] I sigh, turning to lie on my back and looking up at my ceiling.[Unfortunately, it does.] I then apologized to Caspian about how Rune behaved with his Mate, Odette, and explained that the bond threw out a danger warning that set Rune off. Caspian is silent for a moment before our link hums with understanding.[Something happened between the two o

Looking out the window of my room, the lights off and the area quiet, I wonder how Brynlee is doing. After announcing to her that she is pregnant, Brynlee kicked me out of her cottage saying she needed time and space to think about it. That was three hours ago. In these last three hours I have done nothing but sit in my room worrying about her.I know Brynlee wants to be a mother. Know that she wants a big family after living life as an only child, but I also know that she is terrified. I can feel her fear through the Mate Bond, feel her worrying over this news. I hate that I can’t be there to hold her and help her through it, but this is Brynlee’s decision. It is her body, her choice.If she decides that she isn’t ready to be a mother, then I can’t change her mind. As much as I want our pup, I can’t force her to stay pregnant just for my selfish needs. I had already been selfish once and rejected her for the safety of a pack that didn’t really care for me. I will not make that mistake
The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 79
Chapter 79Staring at Brynlee held in a headlock, I stalk towards the training ring she is in. Caspian’s mate tentatively lets her go as the power and anger inside my blood courses out in waves. I watch as Brynlee stands, worry in her eyes as she places her hand on my shoulder.“Rune, we were just sparing.” She states, her scent wrapping around me. Something has changed about it. It has grown sweeter and warmer. The urge to protect her grows stronger and without thinking, I scoop her into my arms are walk out of the training facilities with everyone watching. I note the scrapes and bruises left on her as she silently lets me carry her, knowing they are from her sparing and will heal in no time but that doesn’t stop the feeling of wanting to turn back and thrash that she-wolf for giving them to her. The broken bond hums with satisfaction at my thoughts of wanting to take revenge for my Mate no matter how misguided they may be. But I can feel Brynlee growing angry at me for taking her a
