SILVER MIST PACKThe Silver mist pack bustled with festivities, the people were gathered together, eating, drinking, laughing and jesting. It was a beautiful sight to behold, the atmosphere was a beautiful one too. It was obvious, everyone was happy because at long last, the Alpha King finally had a child to call theirs after so many years of waiting. Although, it wasn't a male pup as the people thought it would be, but whether male or female, a child will always be a child. The dancers danced as loud music was blasting through the speakers and the people moved their bodies to the rhythm while cheering the dancers who danced tirelessly. Wolves from different parts of the pack trooped in, in their hundreds and thousands, to felicitate with the Alpha and Luna. Some were truly happy while some came to see if it was true that the Luna had finally given the Alpha, a child. Murmurs could be heard from different corners but no one dared to speak ill, out loud, of the Alpha's family. It wa
EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER(SUN CREST PACK)“Beck, where are we going?” Veronica asked, feeling tired already, “We've been walking for hours now, and the full moon festival is about to start.”“We're almost there, it's not really far anymore.” He said, still walking further into the woods.They kept walking for twenty more minutes until he stopped walking and turned to look at her, who was already exhausted, “Is this where…where we are going?” She stuttered.“Well, I don't know.” He responded.“What? What do you mean you don't know? We've been walking for an hour and a half, and you're saying you don't know where we are going?” She said, almost screaming.“ Well, I mean, yes.” He finally answered.“You are really something, so what are we doing here?” Veronica asked him.“ You know I love you, right? And I will always love you.” He began.“ Yes, I do, and I love you too, but that doesn't give enough explanation for us to be out in the woods this late.” She said, looking around.He didn't sa
Veronica didn't know what to call the emotions she was feeling towards Beck at that moment. She was mad at him, she was sad about the things he said to her. She also wanted to go and help him with the pain, but at the same time, she just wanted him to suffer more pain than she was feeling.Instead of using the front door, she went through the back door because of the other omegas that hadn't left for the Moon festival and Kiera. “If they saw me like this, they would make me explain what had happened.” She thought to herself as she sneaked in through the back door.She thought about it for a while and decided to go back into the woods. The pain of the mate bond was killing her, so she couldn't think well. She didn't want anyone to see her like that, so she ran into the nearest woods.Not thinking straight, she kept running in whatever direction her legs took her. She didn't know for how long she was running until she came to a stop after hearing a growl coming from the woods.At first
"The pain of the broken mate bond is tougher than I thought," Beck said to himself.He tried standing up but fell almost immediately, “I am going to be the Alpha of this pack in less than three days, I can't be this weak because of a broken mate bond.” He told himself as he began to try to get up again.He forced himself to stand up and sucked in the pain. He took a couple of steps and almost fell down but held on to the nearest tree he could touch.The walk to the pack house was quite far because he had to get Veronica to a place where no one would see or hear him rejecting her and now it had blown back in his face, because he had to walk a very long journey before he could get back to the pack house.He endured the pain throughout the walk and began thinking of how his Father and Blue, his sister, would react to what he had just done. Well, his father would most definitely have nothing to say, while Blue, his little sister, on the other hand, would be so glad. She didn't like Veroni
Pain, that was the first thing Veronica made sense of. “Ouch! My head hurts, what happened?” She asked no one in particular.She tried lifting her right hand to touch her forehead but noticed that she couldn't feel her arm.“ What's this? I can't feel my arm. Come to think of it, I can't feel my body, I can't feel anything, except for the pain in my head.” She thought to herself as different conversations kept flooding her mind.“ Did I hit my head hard on the floor when I fell?” Was I supposed to feel pain when I lost my mortal body?” She asked herself, with the lowest voice possible, making it impossible for anyone to hear her, except for the movements on her lips.She tried to open her eyes but her vision was blurry, but after a couple more blinks, she could see clearly. She noticed the white ceiling and then looked around the room. It was painted in white and yellow, with the yellow shining almost brighter than the sun and the white, as snow.“ The afterworld sure is beautiful. Ve
It had now been a week since Beck rejected Veronica and no one knew about it except her, Beck and Kiera. Kiera wanted to confront Beck about it, but Veronica begged her not to because he didn't know that she knew about it.“ Wow, what a lovely day to sleep and not wake up for a while,” Kiera said, looking up at the sky, as they passed by the children's park.“ What do you mean by that? Don't ever say that, please. If you go, who would I talk to or where would I find anyone who would listen to me complain about everything all day long?” Veronica snapped at her.“ Relax Vee, I'm not going anywhere, at least, not anytime soon, silly,” Kiera said, laughing. “It was just a harmless joke.”“A harmless joke? Really? Who jokes with something as serious as death?” Veronica snapped at her again.“Hey, chill. I never said anything about dying.” Kiera replied.“To sleep and not wake up means what?” Veronica asked her, obviously angry.
"No," Veronica screamed as she carried Kiera's lifeless body on her lap."Kiera, please don't leave me. " She muttered like a crazy woman.She sobbed, tapping her cheeks to see if a miracle could happen. Maybe she would wake up smiling at her and say it was just a prank. She could not bring herself to believe that the only person that understood her was gone.She dropped her lifeless body on the floor and stood up. She then turned to see a rogue wolf launching at her but instead of running, she didn't run because she just wanted to die alongside her best friend. As the wolf got closer, she shut her eyes, waiting for his attack."Guess this is it, Veronica. You are finally going to the afterlife, but at least, this time, you'll be seeing Kiera." She said to herselfas she waited for the wolf to launch at her, but instead of being attacked, she heard a loud thud.She opened her eyes only to see the rogue wolf on the floor groaning in pain. She saw Beck's wolf clawing the rogue wolf's bo
“You are hereby banished from The Sun Crest pack. Leave immediately!” His voice reverberated through the hallway as he spoke.“If you are found anywhere close to this pack, the worst things will befall you.” He threatened.At that moment, it seemed like Veronica could not hear properly. It was like she had suddenly gone deaf. She turned to look at Beck, hoping that he would at least plead with his father on her behalf but looking at his face, he didn't seem surprised at all. He looked indifferent.She fell to her knees in front of Beck's father, grabbing his feet.“Please Alpha. If I leave here now, I have nowhere to go. You know I have no family to call mine. Please.” She pleaded as tears rolled down her cheeks.“And how is that my business? Do you know the number of problems and havoc you have caused in this pack since you stepped in here? You have done enough damage to last us a couple of years and so, my decision is final. Leave! We do not want you anymore, you are just had news!”
Frustrated and devastated, Steve finally headed out, after seeing that him waiting for an extra fifteen minutes after everyone had left, wasn't yielding any results. As soon as he got outside, he just kept walking absentmindedly.“Steve!!!” Megan called out to him, snapping him out of his thoughts.“Oh, you're still here?” Steve asked, a bit surprised.“Of course, I am.” She answered.“I didn't know. I thought you had left with the others.” Steve said as he looked around, noticing that the rest had gone home.“And why would I do that?” She asked, smiling cutely, but this didn't sit well with Steve.“And why shouldn't you do that?” Steve responded sharply, his expression unwelcoming. Megan's smile vanished immediately.“Anyway, I was waiting for you.” She said, not minding his cold attitude towards her.“Why?” He inquired coldly, as he slipped his hands into his pockets.“I was hoping I could go home with you.” She answered.“I don't think that would be possible.” He said, plainly.“
The air was heavy with tension as Elder Raymond stormed in, his face twisted in grief and rage. His eyes, red-rimmed from lack of sleep, scanned the room until they landed on Veronica, who now stood frozen, her hands clasped together in front of her. At the sound of Elder Raymond’s angry voice, she had sprung to her feet.The moment he saw her, Elder Raymond charged at her, his heavy boots echoing off the marble floor. “You!” He bellowed, his voice, sounding like thunder. “You killed my son!”Veronica shook her head vigorously as he charged at her.Beta Richard quickly stepped forward, shielding Veronica from Elder Raymond’s attack. The guards also moved swiftly to restrain Elder Raymond, but he struggled against them, his face purpling with rage.Seeing what was going on, Megan and the rest of their friends scurried off to a corner.Alpha Marcus sprung up from his throne, his voice authoritative as he spoke. “Elder Raymond! What is going on? What is the meaning of all this?!” Elde
As soon as the warrior guards got back to the pack, Veronica was dragged before the Alpha in the court.“We found her, Alpha.” Captain Jake announced, pushing Veronica forward. She missed her steps and fell to the ground in front of Alpha Marcus, and Beta Richard.“Has she confessed yet?” Alpha Marcus asked, and Jake shook his head.“No, Alpha. She has not confessed. She claims she is innocent.”“Is that so?” He inquired, and Jake nodded affirmatively.Alpha Marcus’ eyes fell on Veronica, who was still on the floor, her face buried in her hands as she cried silently.“So, you have refused to confess after everything?” He asked her, his eyes blazing with fury.“I… I’m innocent.” She managed to say, her voice, cracked from screaming and crying all the way to the pack from her hiding place.Right then, Steve, Megan, Sam, Linda, Madeline and the others walked in.“Thank goodness. They've found her.” Sam said out loud as soon as he saw Veronica on the floor. “I hope she tells the world wha
All hands on deck. The search began, and the warrior guards searched the entire pack, but Veronica was nowhere to be found.Seeing as she was not found anywhere in the pack, they proceeded to search outside the pack, and headed for the forest, combing every single place the soles of their feet stepped.They were so determined to find her because they believed that she was responsible for Trey’s death just like Sam told the Alpha.“Leave no stone unturned. Search the perimeters. Search every single place. Every nook and cranny.” Captain Jake yelled as they intensified their search in the forest.They searched and searched for hours, until it was very late at night, yet they didn't find anyone, or anything that could serve as a pointer to where Veronica was.“Cap, don't you think we should go back? It's already dark. We can come back by morning tomorrow.” One of the warriors suggested, but Jake glared at him.“Do you think this is a child's play? Are we just searching because we feel li
They finally arrived at the Alpha's palace, and Beta Richard led the way, while they followed behind him.As they made their way in, silence filled the air, the only sound heard was their footsteps on the floor.“I can't believe I'm back here again. I still haven't gotten over what happened while I was here last time.” Megan whispered to Steve, who didn't say a word to her.“Anytime I think about it, the only thing I can remember is the punishment we were given months ago.” She whispered again, but he still didn't say anything in response.She continued to complain, regardless. “Ughhh! I can't believe we actually did community service for three whole months. It was such a harrowing experience for-”“Can you just keep quiet, Megan. Now is not the time for random talks and this is definitely not the place!” He interrupted her, as he whispered through gritted teeth. “What is wrong with you? Dang!” He hissed.She rolled her eyes, and remained quiet till they finally got into the Alpha's
In just a short moment, the ambulance arrived at Veronica’s house, and Trey's body was immediately observed keenly, and he was soon confirmed dead.Seeing that it was Trey, the head paramedic, whose name was Dan, stared in shock. He then sighed. “Take him into the ambulance. We might have to find out the cause of his death.” He immediately instructed the other paramedics to carry Trey's body out of the house.“I’m quite baffled here. How did this happen? What really happened?” Dan asked Steve and the other guests, including Megan, who looked disturbed.“We have no idea. We just came into the room and met him like this.” Steve replied, honestly.“Is… is he really dead?” Linda asked, her voice shaking.Dan sighed sadly. “Unfortunately, Yes.”“Oh no!” They all exclaimed, with defeated expressions.They had actually hoped that they were wrong about it all along, but with the confirmation of the paramedics, they soon knew that their worst fear had actually happened.“Are you guys sure tha
Seeing Trey’s lifeless body in the pool of his own blood, Megan retched, and swiftly rushed into the bathroom and began to throw up.“What could have happened? Who could have done this?” Steve thought to himself as he observed Trey’s motionless body.Truly, he didn't like Trey because of what happened between them in the past, but never in a million years did he imagine that Trey would be in such a state at that point in time.Megan came back into the room, and they remained transfixed in one spot for a while, before someone finally spoke up.“Who did this?” One of the guests, Madeline, asked, sounding completely terrified.“Is he still breathing?” Another person, Linda asked, her voice shaking.“Does he look like he is?” Someone else, Sam, replied, coldly.Linda’s eyes widened. “What!?”“You can't be so sure. Maybe he is just unconscious.” She said again, trying hard not to believe what Sam said.“I think Sam might be right. He doesn't look like he is breathing.” Luke said, in suppor
After walking and reminiscing on past events for a while, Steve and Megan finally headed back to Veronica's house, but when they got outside the house, they noticed that the guests were a lot less than before they left the house earlier.“Seems almost everyone has gone.” Steve stated, and Megan nodded in agreement.“Yes, it seems so. I'm sure they had so much fun.” She replied, looking around.“Yeah, that's true.” Steve nodded in support.“Hi Uncle Steve.” Scott suddenly shouted, jumping out from nowhere, startling them.“Oh my, you scared me.” Megan exclaimed, and Steve smiled.“Did I?” Scott asked as he excitedly jumped into Steve's arms.“Yes, you did.” Megan replied, frowning.“Did you go somewhere?” He asked, “I have been looking everywhere for you guys.”“Oh, yes. We took a walk.” Steve answered with a smile.“Really?” Scott asked, staring at Steve and Megan.“Yes. We had some things to talk about.” Steve explained, still smiling.“Oh, so where's Vee?” Scott asked, seeing as Ver
Seeing that it was indeed Trey, Veronica fearfully took a few steps backwards, away from him.Noticing her reaction, he knew that she possibly knew him, and so he got up from the bed.“Oh, you know me already?” He asked her, his tone, menacing.“What makes you think so?” Veronica asked him. Her heart, beating fast, not sure of what she should have said. “I don't know you.” She blurted out.“Oh really?” He asked mockingly, taking a step towards her.“Yes.” She lied, slowly retreating.He laughed hysterically. “Why does your expression say otherwise?” He queried her. “You don't look like you're seeing me for the first time.” He stated the obvious, making her more uncomfortable.“That's not true.” Veronica insisted, and he laughed again.“You’re saying something, but your actions say otherwise.” He said, “What do you mean?” She asked him and instead of responding, he took a couple of steps forward, making her take steps backwards instinctively.“There you go.” He said, proving his point,
