I didn’t think. I just pulled my arm out of his grip and ran. Elly was screaming at me for leaving our Mate but I needed to think.

Yes, I want a Mate. However if my Mate was a guest here he was most probably a ranked member of a pack. In that case he would expect me to leave Ash Wood.

This was something I really didn’t want to do. I already lost a home three years ago. I wasn’t prepared to lose another. Besides who knew if my Mate’s pack would let me bring my siblings. I would and could never leave them. I was all they had left and I promised Dad I would take care of them.

I closed my mind to the pack link knowing that Clayton would try talking to me. Being Alpha he could still come through if he tried hard enough but luckily he didn’t. He knew me well enough to know I needed to be alone.

After running outside I entered a patch of trees behind the castle before climbing up the tallest. I sat there in deep thought.

I wasn’t sure how long I had been sittin

    I went back to my room after storming off. Clayton was standing there waiting for me by the desk. “ I could sense your distress through the link. I hope you don’t mind but I let myself in. Wanna talk?,” he gently inquired.“ I’m sorry I know I’m acting like an idiot. I hoped that my mate would be a rogue to join our pack or at least a non-ranked member if they had a pack. But just my luck my mate isn’t only an Alpha but he’s the Alpha of the Black-hide pack! The goddess obviously likes fucking with my life! Even if I can look past his pack I’ll need to leave Ash Wood. Who knows how changing things would affect the kids. And the second he knows who my parents are, he will probably decide to reject me! My grandfather killed his mother for Goddess sake! Plus I hear that both him and his father hate hunters with a passion. I’m a werewolf and sure hunters don’t have abilities but I’m still proud to be one. It’s the Order of Orion that are evil not hunters themselves. It’s b

    Harvey’s POV I’ve never been so confused in my damn life. I finally find my Mate and after making a colossal dick out myself in the cafeteria she bolted. When I finally managed to track her down to apologize I thought things were going well until I told her who I was. I’m not sure what happened but she had jumped down without missing a beat. What I could see of her face at the time also looked extremely angry and maybe a little sad.Does she have some grudge against me or my pack? I know she has never been exiled by my pack. If she had I would have seen her before. I hadn’t heard from Echo since she ran off earlier. He’s depressed and sulking in the back of my mind. So no help there.I went to my room so I could think. Besides if I went to find her right now she would probably just run away again. My ego was already hurt as it was.I opened my door and saw that Paul wasn’t around. Thank the Goddess. I didn’t want to answer questions about Nova. I couldn’t help

    HARVEY’S POVI had barely been waiting and hour when my dad emailed me all the requested files. I began sifting through them immediately. I started with incidents involving rogues. As to me it seemed to be the most likely reason she had a grudge against me. I didn’t remember ever seeing her face before so the possibility she was exiled was unlikely. However I couldn’t find anything pointing her in these files I could look at those exiled. Even if she wasn’t banished it could possibly be that we exiled someone she cared for.I had been reading nearly fourty or so minutes when Paul came in. His expression looked a bit concerned. Worried I asked him, “ What if anything could you find out?”“ I found out a few things that are a bit odd and concerning. It turns out the pack they are registering is called Ash Wood and has many supernaturals not just Werewolves. They also have many Spell-casters, Vampires and even have Hunters in their so called pack!”I jumped up

    NOVA’S POVAfter waking up I got up to get ready for the day. I spent some time thinking and talking with Elly last night. We decided that we should give Harvey a chance. He wasn’t the person who exiled my parents. It was his father and I came to the conclusion that I shouldn’t judge him on the actions of his father.I was extremely excited to see him. I usually didn’t pay much attention to my appearance but today I wanted to impress Harvey. Especially after my behaviour yesterday.After putting on a cute pair of black leggings and a blue tank top, I did my hair and makeup. I straightened my hair before putting on some lipstick, eyeliner and mascara. I didn’t bother with foundation as it would only make me break out. Once I was satisfied with my appearance I knocked on Clayton’s door.“Morning,” Clayton yawned loudly before continuing. “ What’s up? The meeting doesn’t start till 9:30 and it’s still only 6am?”“Well,” I paused a moment embarrassed before

    NOVA’s POVI was momentarily filled with excitement. Maybe I had misread Paul’s expression and he was just looking at me from curiosity. After all I am his Alpha’s Mate which would presumably make me his future Luna.I broke into a wide grin before asking, “ Oh! Sorry I shouldn’t have jumped on you like that. I’m Nova. Nice to meet you.”“Is Harvey around?” I adopted a more embarrassed expression before continuing.” To be honest I reacted poorly to meeting him yesterday. I think I just needed some time to process the idea of changing packs. So I was hoping to talk with him.”Paul’s expression softened softly before awkwardly telling me, “ Well, after getting some interesting news he went for an impromptu hunt. I don’t think he’s returned yet. I can’t even asked him because Harvey is blocking our mind-link.”Hearing this I felt more than a bit disappointed. After all I fucked up royally with my reaction yesterday. I really just want to talk wit

    Harvey’s POV After running out on Paul last night I was full of internal chaos. My thoughts were completely in opposition with one another.On one hand I was thrilled at finally finding my mate. After all who wouldn’t want to meet the other half of their soul? Besides that, she was more beautiful than the goddess Aphrodite herself. When I first got a good look at her I was ensnared by her blonde, flowing hair that was pulled back to reveal a lean, lived in face. Wide emerald green eyes, set well within their sockets, glaring at me. Even in anger her beauty was hypnotizing. However, as well as being my mate she was also a Hunter. Their was nothing I hated more than Hunter’s. That side of her lineage was in conflict with my sense of right and wrong.The Order of Orion was responsible for my mother’s death. It was thanks to Hunters that I had grown up without a mother. I have been an infant when they had murdered her. Not only w

    PAUL’S POVThere was only five minutes left when I saw Harvey’s wolf Echo coming from the woods. He gave me a quick nod before going behind a nearby pine tree to shift. Once Harvey had shifted back to human form he came out from behind the tree. No wonder he wanted me to bring wipes to clean himself up. My Alpha looked like shit. His body was covered in dirt and blood. I even noticed a small cut on his cheek.“What did you do to end up like that?”Harvey shook his head while trying to brush deer guts out of his hair with water and a comb.”I wasn’t thinking too logically last night. I let Echo take over for the most part and he can be savage. Hygiene and aesthetics weren’t on our mind at all.”“ Make’s sense. Are you ready for the meeting? It should have already begun.”Harvey had just thrown on his jacket before nodding his assent. We walked through the doors to the castle and quickly made our way to the parliamentary room.

    NOVA’s POVMe and Clayton arrived to the meeting a few minutes early. We needed time to find our seats. We began going through the aisles in the circular amphitheater. After searching for a bit we found them. They were in the third row from the back, across from the doors. Clayton began going over strategy for the meeting via mind link. However as much as I tried to stay on topic it was impossible. I couldn’t help but watch the door, waiting for Harvey.‘Now before we let the pink flying monkeys free we need to release the doves’ I heard Clayton tell me via link.I snapped my head his way and gave him my best what the hell face. He began laughing before saying out loud,” Did you really think I wouldn’t take note that you were preoccupied? I began talking nonsense to see how long it would take you to notice. You are too busy looking for your Mate. I understand the pull but this meeting is very important. I need Nova my Beta right now, not Nova my best friend who

    NOVA’S POVOnce I found Alpha Clayton a silly grin broke out on my face. Clayton had him tied to a pole with his hand behind his back. Even more comical Jon was as naked as the day he was born. Unsurprising he was not what you would call well endowed. He also had what appeared to be his own boxes in his mouth as a gag!“Having fun without me?” I asked Alpha Clayton.Clayton responded with a deep chuckle before saying, “You took so long I got bored. Now what’s this brilliant plan of yours?”I quickly unslung my backpack and began displaying the supplies I had grabbed. Their was a see through black thong, a garter with knee high socks, a maid style lingerie top complete with an apron. Clayton laughed harder and shook his head when he saw what I brought. He got me this as a joke a year or so ago in response to a monstrous size butt plug I got him. It’s now been an ongoing joke to get these dumb gifts between me, Clayton and Amelia. I had brought it by mistake after

  • The Hunter Wolf   Chapter 34

    NOVA’S POVI was nearly in tears with anger as I followed Alpha Clayton’s scent. How dare he speak to me that way! I’m his Mate not his fucking slave! Also I more than earned my position as Beta. As I thought more about this one comment made by Alpha Jerk-face, aka my Mate, my thoughts became more and more intrusive. What if I’m wrong? Maybe I really am weak? My Mate did need to save me from those two Alpha’s after all….Elly spoke up in my mind, “That’s enough. First of all Alpha Clayton and Alpha Xavier would never give anyone such a high position due to nepotism. He cares too much for the pack to do something like that. Secondly their isn’t a wolf in our pack that is stronger than you aside from our Alpha. This alone shows that you have more than earned being a Beta. Not only that but our Mate and his wolf are going to have another thing coming if he thinks we will put up with being treated like property! If he continues with this we can easy reject him!”A

    Harvey’s POV Nova slapped me! I could hardly believe it. I was only explaining why what she was doing was wrong! ‘It doesn’t make sense…’Echo told me.‘I know! Why is she so angry, we were only speaking the truth!”‘That’s not what I mean,’ Echo continued. ‘You may not know this but the reason most she-wolves are submissive to their Mates is that their inner wolf wants to submit. If the she-wolf is rebelling against their Mate, they are also in hot water with their wolf. It is against their nature. Just like a male-wolf feels the pull to protect their mate, a she-wolfs instincts are to obey.”‘I agree that it’s strange that she’s resisting her wolf but like you said it’s not necessary unheard of. I just don’t know why this was her hill to die on. Her wolf might not even allow her to shift while giving her the silent treatment. I was only telling her the truth for Goddess’s sake!”Echo said, ‘That’s not what’s so weird about thi

    NOVA’S POVI practically flew through the halls of silver and gold. Past paintings, decorative tables and more than a few confused people. The look on the face of one lady made my day.I had turned the corner and ended up right in front of her before quickly dancing around her. She looked at me like I had grown three heads! I didn’t spare her more than a half hearted apology as I rushed to my room as fast as my legs would carry me.Finally after several minutes of running and many insults thrown my way I was in my room. I quickly grabbed the most embarrassing shit I could find along with other essentials and threw them into a small backpack. Once again I ran, but this time back to where I started. I found Paul and the rest of his party still there without Jon. Paul stopped me before I could follow Alpha Clayton’s scent. He spoke to me in a cautious tone, “ Look Nova. I know that Jon was being rude but is all this worth it? I had to mind-link Alpha Harvey to inf

  • The Hunter Wolf   Chapter 31

    NOVA’S POVPersonally I hated this piece of shit who calls himself Jon. But we were in foreign territory. This meant that no matter how much I wanted to kill him, or watch Clayton kill him, it would most likely most likely come back to bite us and our pack in the ass.Reluctantly I put my hand on Clayton’s shoulder to get his attention. Clayton turned around to meet my eyes. For those who hadn’t seen him angry before I had to admit it was a terrible sight. His rage filled eyes were a dark blood red colour. His inch and a half long fangs, that usually weren’t there, had grown in response to the emotionally charged situation. When he noticed it was me his eyes softened slightly.Alpha Clayton had both werewolf and vampire blood so his inner beast was a hybrid. So when he got pissed enough his wolf/ vampire would surface. As a result Alpha Clayton’s wolf Xavier was a bit different than most wolves. He was much more cruel. Alpha Xavier spoked to me i

    NOVA’S POVWHAT THE HELL! No fucking way was I going to have bodyguards! Yes I got into a fight and was injured, but that didn’t mean I was some delicate flower! I could take the heat without wilting!I looked Paul in the eyes before getting into him. “Like Hell! I won’t be followed around by a bunch of glorified babysitters! Does Harvey think so little of me that he won’t even trust me with my own safety?! If he honestly thinks I’ll go along with this shit he’s sadly mistaken! He didn’t even have the balls to tell me himself! I refuse to be treated like some little twit that can’t handle herself!”I knew I was being a little unfair to Paul but I was pissed. Unfortunately for him the person I was actually mad at was absent.One of the babysitters spoke up rather angrily, “Who do you think you are! As the mate of an Alpha you should just do as he says. After all women are meant to be kind or gentle. As a women you shouldn’t fight at all.

  • The Hunter Wolf   Chapter 29

    NOVA’S POV Harvey left shortly after making sure I was alright. I wasn’t sure how I felt about this. On one hand he did rush in to protect me, even if no protection was actually necessary. This should mean he accepts me as his Mate. However, he also left very quickly when he realized I was safe. It was almost like he didn’t want to be around me. This behaviour made me afraid that he is disappointed I’m part Hunter. Harvey didn’t act this way in our previous encounters. Maybe he just had something to take care of and I was simply jumping to conclusions. I decided to go with this option in my mind. It was definitely my most desired explanation at least.It was just me and Clayton now. He gave me an apologetic look before telling me, “ I’m sorry.”“Why are you apologizing?”Clayton answered gently, “ I’m your Alpha.” He momentarily paused before continuing in a more aggravated tone, “ It is my responsibility to protect my pack but I was fucking useless w

  • The Hunter Wolf   Chapter 28

    HARVEY’S POVMe and Echo were for once in complete agreement as I rushed towards Nova’s scream. I imagined a million scenarios of what could be happening and what would happen to the person or people responsible. I bulldozed through the door right before Alpha Clayton. I saw Nova on the bed. She looked as white as a sheet, almost like she saw a ghost. Her eyes were moving the same way a hunted animals did when they realized they were about to die. My hackles continued to rise. I could physically see and even smell Nova’s fear. Knowing that MY Mate was afraid made me feel bloodthirsty in a unprecedented way. What was worse is that I couldn’t even identify the threat! I suppressed the urge to growl before asking Nova in the gentlest voice I could currently muster, “ We heard you scream. What happened?”Nova had now seemingly calmed down but at my question her cheeks immediately turned as red as an apple. She was even looking down at her lap. Why was she acting like this? I just wanted

    NOVA’S POVI could feel the wind in my fur and see the warm rays on sunlight reflecting off the leaves. Beside me was my mother’s wolf running with me. I had always wanted to do this with my Mom since I was child. She always looked so completely free when she ran.Too bad we could never do this. But that doesn’t make sense. We were running together now so why would a thought like that pop into my head? That’s when the forest seemed to darken almost immediately. The forest that was once beautiful and inviting had now become eerie. The leaves had disappeared from the trees. The ground was free of any sign on life. There wasn’t even a single hint that any animals would be around. The sky was the colour of blood, the sun that had previously brought a sense of security was now replaced with a moon of redder even than the sky that only seemed to make me feel uneasy.I turned to my mother to see if she could explain what had just happened.
