“This is how far I can go with you.” Beta Richard said to Steve as they got to the pack's borders. “I can't go any further.” He added.

Beta Richard’s expression turned serious, his tone firm too. He stepped closer to Steve's, leaning in as he spoke into his ear, “You know what is at stake here. The pack's future is in your hands, please don't disappoint us. I'm sure you know what you need to do already.”

“Yes, I do sir. Thank you so much for your trust in me. I promise you that I won't disappoint. I'll do everything I'm supposed to do and make you proud.” Steve assured him, and Beta Richard nodded, a little smile on his face.

“Throughout your journey, always remind yourself that you are not only doing this for yourself, but you're doing it for your people too.” Beta Richard placed a reassuring hand on Steve's right shoulder.

“From here on, you're on your own. A lot of distractions might come your way, but remain focused. Be very careful and remember everything I have said. Follow ever

    Scott, half awake, walked off to his parent's room in the very early hours of the morning, with baggy eyes. He yawned as he made his way to their door. Getting to the door, he knocked.“Yes, who is it?” It was his mum, Beta Lily's soft voice who responded.“It's me, Scott.” He answered, stretching himself quietly.“Come on in.” She said quickly and he gently began to open the door and walked in.“Good morning, mum. Good morning, dad.” He greeted them as he walked to his mum's side of the bed. She sat up and gently pulled him into her embrace.“Hi, my love. It's barely morning.” Beta Lily responded, giving him a kiss on his forehead.“Hello, champ.” Beta Richard replied, sitting up as he yawned, quietly.“Are you okay?” She asked, concerned. “You're up at this time, and you look like you barely slept a wink throughout the night.” She added, observing and staring at him. “Did you sleep well at all?” She asked again.“No.” He answered honestly as he rubbed his eyes with his hands.“No?

    The days rolled by so quickly and Steve had now been gone for six days. Megan had only been able to visit Veronica a few times and those few times, she couldn't stay too long because she always had something important to do or somewhere important to go to.Back when Steve was around, she could decide to leave her house and stay at his house for a full day without being questioned, but since her dad thought Steve's house would be empty, he felt there was no point going to stay in an empty house when the owner isn't in.Bored, Veronica was quietly and gently wiping the bookshelves in the living room when she heard a slight sound of clicking heels from outside. She froze, her heart skipping a beat. Someone was approaching the main entrance.Soon the footsteps became closer and louder. As the loud footsteps echoed, her eyes darted towards the entrance.“Who could that be?” She thought to herself. “Could it be Megan?” She asked herself, whispering.“But her footsteps have never been so lou

    That night, the guards on night patrol had decided to knock doors randomly, not announcing their presence, while being as strategic and quiet as possible to avoid any suspicions. They didn't expect to get any response from Steve's house since they knew he wasn't in and they were about to leave when they heard the door being unlocked.They had coincidentally knocked thrice, making Veronica think that it was Megan at the door. Hence why she opened the door without asking any questions.Seeing the guards, Veronica knew she couldn't have been in more serious trouble. She knew she was really done for. How and where was she going to begin to explain who she was, where she was from and how she got into the pack, talk less of how she got into Steve's house.A raging and intense battle with her emotions immediately began inside of her.“How could I have been so stupid? How couldn't I figure out that it wasn't Megan who was at the door?” She thought to herself, feeling overwhelmed.“Now I'm in

    Back at the pack, Veronica was about to be brought before the Alpha and the people who had now heard what happened the previous night, began to gather outside the Alpha's palace to feed their eyes and their ears.“I heard they found a strange female in Master Steve's house.” A member of the pack, Daisy, whispered to her friend, Rose, who covered her mouth, shocked.“Does that mean he has been the one harboring the spy?” Rose asked, and Daisy scoffed.“Isn't it obvious now?” Daisy said with a look of displeasure. “I can't believe he'll actually do something like this. I mean, I held him in high esteem.” She said further.“Exactly. I mean, for someone who will be the future leader of the pack, this is uncalled for and it is a punishable offence.” Rose voiced her opinion on the matter.“I even heard she has been there, living in his house, for many weeks now.” She whispered into Rose's ear.“Really? Are you sure about that?” She inquired, surprised to hear what Daisy just said.“Yes. I h

    As Steve rushed to Veronica, the eyes of everyone in the room followed him with every step he took. And as he got to where she was on the floor, he grabbed and hugged her, further shocking everyone.“Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Were you beaten?” Steve asked, his eyes completely focused on her, paying no attention to those who were seated. His tone filled with concern.Veronica couldn't answer, she just kept crying. A part of her was glad because Steve came to her rescue but another part of her was afraid of what was going to befall him now that they have found out that she has been staying in his house all the while.He swiftly wiped her tears and spoke calmly to her, “I’m so sorry, Veronica. It’s all my fault.”“Please don't cry.” He pleaded, whispering into her ear as he held her in his embrace.At that moment, it was as if they were the only ones in the room because every other person was totally shocked, and dumbfounded.Unable to hold his anger in anymore, Alpha Marcus sprun

    “Scott?” Beta Richard yelled his son's name. “What are you doing here?” He couldn't believe his eyes, neither could he believe or understand what was going on.The rest of the council members exchange weird and strange glances with each other. Some whispered some inaudible words, while some other elders didn't say much, but their expressions said a whole lot. Even Alpha Marcus and Steve were completely confused.“What is going on right now?” Alpha Marcus finally said, turning to Beta Richard, as he found his voice.“I have no idea, Alpha. I'm so confused.” Beta Richard replied, looking truly confused.“Has he been bewitched too?” Someone asked quietly, and Beta Richard stared intently at him.“Where have you been?” Scott whispered, his voice trembling as tears flowed down his face. “I thought I'd lost you forever.”Veronica's eyes welled up, her voice barely audible. “Oh my, Scott... I thought I'd lost you too.” She wrapped her arms around him, holding him tight as tears rolled down h

    The silence in the room was deafening at that moment, heavy with shock and utmost disbelief. They were all too shocked to say a word, their eyes fixed on Veronica who was still with the guards. “See? I told you that she was not the one you were looking for. You got the wrong person.” Scott spoke up, breaking the silence in the room, his tone filled with conviction.Even Steve, who was standing at a corner, couldn't find the right words. His expression showed that he was totally lost for words. He found it shocking and surprising to believe that all the while that the warriors had gone in search of Scott in the forest, he had actually been with Veronica, and the little boy whom Veronica was worried about when he found her, was actually Scott.“Unbelievable.” He muttered under his breath. “This is really shocking.”He recalled Veronica’s frantic concern for the little boy on that day, and how she was really desperate to find him. How she was worried that something bad had happened to h

    “You don't mean that, right? Steve, are you joking?” Councillor Maxwell asked him, trying to confirm if he heard him right or not.“I'm sorry, sir, but I'm not joking. Megan knew about Veronica too.” Steve replied, sounding quite disappointed in himself. “She didn't want to do it initially, but I somehow cajoled her into doing it. I'm so sorry, sir.” Steve bowed his head, avoiding Councillor Maxwell's angry and disappointed gaze.“How long? How long has she known?” Beta Richard inquired and Steve took a quick uncomfortable glance at Megan's father before answering Beta Richard’s question.“Since the morning after I brought her into the pack.” He revealed, and they all mumurred, while Councillor Maxwell’s head was bowed, avoiding the mocking eyes of the others.He had put too much trust in his daughter, making him boast of how sure he was that she would never be involved in such an act, but now it turned out that he was totally wrong. So he couldn't face the others in the room. The on

    “Veronica!!!” They all called out to her in unison, but she was too devastated to answer.“Wait up.” Scott yelled, but she still didn't answer him.Right when she was almost at the gate, Beta Richard hurried after her and grabbed her arm, holding her firmly, but even with that, she still refused to stay still and kept fighting to be let go.“What do you think you're doing? Where do you think you're going?” He asked her, still holding her firmly, stopping her from leaving on her own.“The hospital. Please let me go.” She replied, her voice breaking and her eyes welling up with tears.“You can't just go like that. You know what? Just calm down, and wait.” He said, his voice laced with concern.“No, I can't wait. I can't just stay calm, do nothing. I have to be there.” She tried to wriggle her hand free from his grasp, her face flushing with frustration and devastation.“You have to!” He snapped at her, his voice a little louder. “You barely know your way around here yet.

    “Dad, I don't know what is going on. He suddenly coughed out blood, and now it seems like he is not breathing.” She panicked, her voice shaking with fear. Tears, pouring out of her eyes.“Dad, I'm in trouble. I killed him.” She screamed in terror.The guards soon rushed into the room, and were taken aback. The sight before then wasn't something they had thought they would see.“Sir, we should take him to the Pack Hospital. He might have just slipped into unconsciousness.” One of the guards said in a rush.“Yes, yes. Let's take him to the hospital. Carry him gently, please.” He ordered them, and they got to work immediately.“Please get up, ma'am.” They said to Megan, who had Steve's head on her lap.Seeing that Megan didn't move, and was still holding on to Steve, her father yelled at her. “Get up Megan!” She jerked in fear, and got up.The guards then went ahead to carry Steve gently, and headed outside the house, while Megan and her dad followed closely behind them. They soon got to

    “Megan!!!” Her father screamed in shock as he ducked to avoid the shattering glass.“Megan! What the hell is this? What has gotten over you?” He yelled at her, and rushed to Steve who was holding onto his shoulder in pain, and staring at the furious Megan in disbelief.“How could he suddenly choose her over me? Why would he do such a thing to me after everything we have been through all these years. After all that we've shared. How can he choose a complete stranger over me?” She cried angrily.“Wait, what?!” Her father stared at her in utter shock. “So this whole anger and violence is because he chose someone else over you?” He couldn't believe what he had just heard his daughter say.“Oh my goodness! I thought I raised you better. I can't believe this.” He said with so much disappointment.He turned to Steve who was still writhing in pain.“Are you okay?” He asked, and immediately Steve lifted his hands off his shoulder, Megan's father’s eyes widened in shock at what he saw.Steve's

    A bit surprised, he asked, “Who is the person?”“It's Master Steve, sir.” The voice replied.“Oh.” He then turned to his daughter. “I guess he is here to see you.” She shook her head in disagreement, and pulled away from her dad.“Is he here to see Megan?” Megan's dad asked the messenger.“No, sir. He specifically asked to see you sir.” The messenger answered.“Really? That's unusual.” He muttered, and looked at Megan, who looked away immediately.“Alright, tell him to wait. I'll be with him shortly.” He said to the messenger at the door, who in turn, replied, and walked away.He then turned back to his daughter, hoping to continue their previous conversation, but her expression indicated to him that she wasn't ready to say anything at that moment.Understanding her expression, he asked, “you don't want to talk now, right?” And she nodded in agreement.He sighed. “That's fine. I'll be back shortly. Let me just find out what he is here for.”He got up and left the room, while Megan cu

    For hours after Megan left, Steve sat in a chair, still dumbfounded, and unable to compose himself. He couldn't wrap his head around what had just happened. He couldn't believe that the one true friend he had literally all his life was in love with him and he didn't know.“Damn! I'm such a fool. I really am.” He muttered to himself, beating himself up about it.Even though they fought and disagreed about a lot of things, a lot of times, he still really cared about Megan, and always looked out for her all the time, and she did the same too, or so he thought.He remembered all the time when they would get into trouble when they were younger, and how they would smartly figure out a way out of every mess they got themselves into.After his mother passed away and he was depressed and hurt, Megan was the one who didn't make him feel alone, because she was always there to comfort him. And that was one of the reasons why their friendship grew stronger over the years.But now, it seemed like t

    “Wait, what?” Steve stood shocked and lost for words.At that moment, he didn't even understand what was going on. “What are you talking about? What is this?” He asked, looking as confused as ever.“How could you choose Veronica over me? How could you?” She yelled at him again, throwing him into further confusion.“Choose her over you?” His head snapped back in confusion, “What does that even mean?” Megan's eyes flashed in anger as she snapped at him,“Don't even try to play dumb with me, Steve. Stop the pretense!”“Look, Megan, you're not making any sense. What is all this? What are you going on about?” Megan’s eyes soon blazed with tears. “You're really choosing her over me, aren't you?” Her voice cracked, as she asked again.Steve's expression softened, unaware of the depth of Megan’s emotions, and unable to understand why she kept repeating the same words. “Megan, what is all this? You've been repeating these same exact words for the past few minutes. What exactly is the matter?

    FIRE DAWN PACK THREE MONTHS LATER“Phew. I can't believe we're finally done with this community service. This has been the longest three months of my life.” Megan said, as they walked slowly to Steve's house.“I also hope my dad lets me off the hook too.” She said, thinking out loud. “I've really missed going out whenever I want, I hope he ‘ungrounds’ me.” She rolled her eyes, as she kept talking to the unattentive Steve.“Also, I’ve been so bored and miserable without my phone and my other gadgets. Ughhh” She grunted as she complained.“Anyway, thank you for making the past three months easy for me. I don't want to imagine what it would have felt like without you being there.” She continued talking, not paying attention to if Steve responded or not.“To be honest, I think I would have collapsed at some point.” She added. “You and I know that I'm not built for any menial or hard labour.” She said, examining her hands, and she then chuckled.“But Steve, do you think your dad has finall

    SUN CREST PACK “How dare you, Beck!” His father yelled, barging into Beck's house. “How dare you embarrass and humiliate me like that? Have you lost your mind? Or have you lost your sense of reasoning?” He kept yelling angrily, the guards immediately left his presence, leaving him alone with Beck.“What is it, father?” Beck asked his already furious father.“Don't you even dare, Beck. Don't give me that bullshit!” He snapped at Beck.“But I don't even know what you're talking about, father. I really don't understand what is going on.” Beck replied, trying to figure out what his father was angry about.“You think I don't know what you're doing? You must think I'm a fool, right?” He scoffed, “Do you think I don’t know that you're trying to act innocent, and feign ignorance. Don't piss me off Beck!”“Dad, I promise you, I don't know what you're talking about.” He replied, hoping to calm his father down.“You liar!” His father snapped at him.“I'm being honest, father.

    “I really don't know what happened in the space of two hours, but from my observation, his vitals look completely different from what it was when I left him two hours ago.” The doctor replied, still flipping through his note pad.Scott's parents exchanged nervous glances, and turned to face the doctor once again.Beta Lily nervously held her husband's hand, her grip tightening in his. “Is that a good thing?” She asked, looking really concerned.“Yes, doctor. Is it something we should be worried about?” Her husband chipped in immediately.“Oh no. It's nothing to be worried about. What I am trying to say is that he looks much better than when I left earlier.” The doctor explained carefully.“Oh. So, he is better, right?” She asked again, to be sure of what the doctor was telling them.“Yes. He is perfectly fine.” The doctor replied, smiling. “He just needs more rest and that's all.” He added.“Then he can come home with us after that?” Veronica, who had been silent all the while, finall
