Freda’s P.O.V
My body ached from the lack of rest; I could barely sleep as I tossed around trying to figure out things about this newly discovered Sliver Blood Pack. I had stayed awake till daybreak. I tried to note down what Craig had told me, but I needed to know more. I needed to know if I was truly part of the pack or this mark was a cursed. If it was a curse, how was I supposed to cure it? My dress was dry, so I had changed from Craig’s shirt into the dress. “Where are you going so early?” His voice startled me. Not quite long his eyes were closed, so I had no idea he had woke up. I turned back to see his blue eyes dancing in amusement. “I’m going to the Sliver Moon Pack abandoned town.” He leaned on the bed, making no move to stand up. “And do you have any idea where that is?” I frowned. I had been more obsess with finding out things about the pack, that I had made the mistake that I only knew what Craig had told me about the pack, and the only person I knew right now that could help was Craig. I turned my full attention to him, but before I could say a word to him. He shook his head, “No!” His head was tilted sideways in a comical way, but I could hardly laugh. I needed his help. “Please, help me. I promise to help you in turn.” For the first time, the amusement in his eyes died down, and he looked lost in thoughts for a while. I stared at him with puppy eyes, hoping it would convince him to follow me. I hardly know anything apart from his name, but the fact that he didn’t sell me out when I was being chase made him the only one I could trust, plus what other choice do I have when I had been clearly abandoned by my pack. Instead of a response, he sat up and started packing up a bag. I smiled at him, “Does this mean you’re going with me?”i He nodded, throwing random things in his bag, “First, I need to warn you that we are going on a dangerous journey. Since the extinction twenty years ago, rouges have taken a liking to that part or so have I heard.” I nodded; having never encountered a rouge wolf in my life, I was glad I had Craig with me. What will I do without my wolf? “Fortunately, I have the map with me, so it should aid our journey.” Without warning, he pulled off his trousers, showing his ass. My cheeks burned, and I turned away from him. I heard to calm my beating heart before I spoke, “You know you could have warned me before going naked in front of me.” He chuckled; his voice sending strange shivers through my body. “We’re going into the woods together. You should get used to seeing me naked.” I made no attempt to turn; my cheeks felt hot, and I shook my head slightly; he had no shame. “Are you decent enough for me to turn?” Silence “I said, are you decent enough?” My voice was higher now; I turned a bit, but couldn’t get myself to look at him completely. My heart raced in my chest, just like when I was being chased, and I felt something strange, but I couldn’t pinpoint what it was. “You will need something to protect yourself in the wood.” Something hit my back, and I finally slowly turned to see him dressed up. I sighed in relief, and my gaze shifted to the strange object on the floor. Craig, himself, was bent over, tying something on his leg. I wanted to ask what that was, but there was something more urgent like the object he threw at me. I picked it up; it was a small pouch tied at the mouth. I frowned. But instead of questioning him, I let my curiosity lead me as I opened the pouch, and inside was a small knife. I brought it out and stared at the object. Isn’t this too small to protect me in the woods? My hand slowly traces the edge; when I felt a sudden pain shot through my finger. “Oh! I forgot to tell you how sharp that knife is.” I looked up at him; his eyes were tinkling in amusement again. I frowned; he must have found life so fun to be easily amused by everything he sees. He stood up now; no sign of whatever he had tied on his leg. “You must have thought the knife is too small, but I had given you that small knife intentionally. One, it’s easy to hide and your target wouldn’t know what they are up to until you hit them. Two, it’s so flexible that you can easily make it become part of you in no time.” He stopped when he saw that I wasn’t following him. “What’s with the look?” My face flushed when I saw how strangely he stared at me; now I think I prefer the usual look of amusement than this. I placed the knife back in its pouch, “I’ve no combat skill.” A perfectly ache brow raised, “You mean you have zero fighting skills.” Although embarrassed by that fact, I nodded. It wasn’t my fault that my parent had never seen the need for me to learn combat. To them, I would never leave the comfort of the palace, and they would also be protection on me. No one had predicted this mark. I held back the urge to check if the mark was still on my tight. “How do you intend to protect yourself in the wood without a skill?” Finally, the amusement was back on his face. Silence. I had no answer to that particular question. He nodded as if I had given him a response, although I haven’t moved my lips. “Tomorrow you start training, but now, we leave here.”Freda’s P.O.V The gush of fresh air hit my face, making me inhale deeply. Unlike the last time I stepped here, the land was dry now, making the green of the grass bright and the floor sandy under my feet. I looked towards the left and right, having no idea which place led to my home. “That’s the way towards Sun Blood pack, and that…” he pointed towards the opposite of the Sun Blood Pack, “is the way towards our unknown destination.”I frowned, “How did you know?”He pulled a small bag from behind him, and brought out a small paper he started studying, “Thankfully, I have the smaller version of our map. It’s an old edition, so it also contained the Sliver Blood Pack abandoned town. Are we going to move or do you have more question?”I shook my head following him as he headed towards that direction without waiting for my response. Soon, the floor became less sandy and started filling up with more rocks. The green leaves that I had been taller than, started sprouting higher, making it
Craig’s P.O.V “You’re a healer.”My eyes trained on the lady staring at me. Her eyes shone light blue, something similar to mine but different. I have read about the Sliver blood pack, but I didn’t read anything about them being a healer, but again, the things I had read about the pack was limited because I had thought them to be extinct.She moved backward and unconsciously sat on the floor, her gaze so focused on her hand. “Ho… How?” She spluttered in confusion. I sat up, wishing I have some of the collection of books that sat in my library back at home here with me. It would be a good time to research if this power was associated with the Sliver Blood pack or it was something unique to her. Firstly, it was rare to see a healer and any pack would do anything to have a healer in their midst. I held her hand before she could protest, “What did you do?”Her gaze moved to her hand and back to my healed arm. She opened her mouth and closed it back, saying nothing. I picked up the s
Freda’s P.O.VI ran. There was nothing chasing me, but rather there was something calling unto me. A white wolf sat at the edge of a cave; the cave was located at the end of a mountain, and it seemed like a difficult place to stay. It seemed any movement from it might make it fall; yet, it looked like the wolf was calling to me to help. My legs carried me as fast as it could until I was standing close to the cave – that was when I saw the lines surrounding the cave – there was broken line and any mis-step will make it fall. I groaned testing my leg on it and moved back as it shook. The wolf remain seated staring at me with deep blue eyes – help me. I frowned. It hadn’t open it’s mouth but I could hear it speak to me. I looked around for anything or anyone to help us, but we were all alone. ‘Help me, so I can come to you.’ She said. Her voice full of anguish in my heart, and seeing it trapped the way it was brought tears to my eyes. Suddenly, the world started shaking. There was
Craig’s P.O.VThe scent of hers filled my head, and I pulled her closer. Her lips full in mine and yet I couldn’t get enough. I placed my hand on her waist to hold her close to me, while the other rested at the small of her back. She moaned in my mouth, and the sound sent a thrill down my blood to my cock. I haven’t felt like this before. I feel like consuming her, but I didn’t want to rush her. I took it slow. I felt her hand in my hair, and I groan. My hand moved to her tight; I felt the mark she so wanted to know about. It felt warm under my palm, and it felt as if it was always meant to be part of her. My hand traced it, slowly. But then she pushed me away. She stepped back, taking in a deep breath. Her lower lip was swollen from the kiss, while her cheeks flushed red, probably from embarrassment. Somehow while we were kissing, she had dropped the knife. She picked it up, apologizing. I turned away from her, trying to relieve myself of the boner I have around her. How was I
Freda’s P.O.VThe air felt husky, and my throat was as dry as a dessert. I’ve never gone this far without water, so it was a very strange feeling. Yet, I widened my eyes, and I held my knife the way Craig had taught me, while my gaze slowly moved to those that had suddenly surrounded us. They were five this time, and I had a feeling it would be difficult for Craig to beat this group all alone. I might have only learnt about swinging my knife, but I would rather die than watch him fight alone. One of the wolf, who was slightly dressed up than the others, stood upright – the others maintained a fighting stance – and addressed us.His gaze moved slowly from Craig to me, but this time not in lust, but something like curiosity. His gaze stopped at Craig as he questioned, “Who are you?”Craig, ever the guarded guy, frowned at his question, “I could ask you the same.”The guy chuckled, “You’re on my territory. And no one passes through here without answering to me.”I looked around. There
This was the night; it was the night I had waited for all my life. I had counted the days and time until this particular moment. I stood before the mirror, smoothing out my long blue dress; it was my choice for my birthday and mating celebration. I had always thought of blue as colors that represent perfection; which meant tonight would be nothing but perfection. My eighteenth birthday, the night I’d finally find my mate, and begin my journey as a united pair. And probably start my role as the future Luna of our pack; the Sun Blood Pack. Adrian, the next alpha of our pack was rumored to be my match. Every female’s dream, but specifically mine because he was the one person I’ve been crushing on. As I gazed at my reflection, a shiver ran down my spine. This was it. The start of my new life.But as I turned to leave, a searing pain shot through my tight. I gasped, clutching at the spot. A bold, crimson mark had appeared on my tight. I parted the slit of my dress, and stare at the mark,
Craig’s P.O.VMy eyes never left those marks; there could be no way I was wrong about the mark. It was something I had always looked at while studying about the Sliver Blood Pack. I hadn’t met anyone in the pack myself, but I had learnt about every pack since I was the next alpha of the Moon Blood Pack. “Do you know about this mark?” Her voice sounded urgent now. Ever since she stepped into this room her heart beat had being high, but it has strangely accelerated, even though she was no longer on the chase. Finally, I took my eyes off the mark, to stare at the deep brown eyes that looked like I could easily get lost in them. “I might be wrong.”She moved closer to me. “I know you know about it. You recognized it the moment you saw it.” She tilted her head aside, “Tell me all you know about it.”I sighed. I couldn’t be bothered about her inquiries. It could only be a mistake; the last member of the pack had died twenty years ago. This lady looked nothing close to twenty, plus she do
