2021-06-10 01:27:40As I walked to the house with Hera everyone picked up their heads and looked in our direction. "They all staring at me," I whispered to Hera and she chuckled.
"Word to the wise El. Whispering around wolves is as subtle as screaming in a person's face." I looked at all of them who stopped what they were doing to look at me. "Goodness you guys are creeping her out," Hera told them and they looked away immediately and continued with what they were initially doing.
"Sorry, they just probably curious on why you here so soon."
She walked onto the porch of the tall brick-colored house and pulled open the door. "It's your home now," she said extending her arm for me to walk in first. I stepped into the house and my eyes roamed the room.
Natural light flooded the house as various leafy plants decorated the corners. The walls were painted an eggshell color and the room had a clean theme of whites and browns.
In the center of the room was a

Creed refused to eat, drink or even look at me. It had been four days since I agreed to let the wolves take him. For four days I watched him stubbornly accept death and suffer in silence. I sat on the porch outside the packhouse. I couldn't take the tension between me and Creed anymore. The weather was changing and it looked like there was a storm rolling with how thick grey clouds huddled together to cover up the Arizona sun. "Still nothing?" Hera asked sitting down next to me. "He is stubborn," I said keeping my eyes fixed above at the sky. I've tried everything to get him to drink or eat except force-feeding him. "The full moon is in two days, Eleanora. If he doesn't eat or drink I don't know what will happen to him when he shifts. It might kill him." Hera had been repeating the same words over and over to me for the last few days. I knew what it meant. He wouldn't have the strength to stand all two

Hera looked nervous as she observed Creed from outside the infirmary. Careful for him not to see her, she stood by the door and peeped at him like a frightened child. The hold he had on this wolf pack still amazed me. They would do anything for Creed yet he hated them and wanted nothing to do with them.He had ordered that none of them come near him and they obeyed and stayed out of the room claiming it was a direct order from their Alpha and they had already disrespected him.I on the other hand didn't care what Mr. Grumpy pants had to say. He wasn't my alpha so I stayed by his side though he snarled, grunted, and growled at my presence. My skin had gotten thick around him and I was used to the hostile silence we shared.It was better than talking to each other because we would end up arguing. He refused to see anything from anyone else's perspective and that infuriated me.I sat in the corner of the room

The sound of metal scraping on metal got me to open my eyes and see Hera standing by a window. She looked out of the window longingly like she always did. She was missing her son who still didn't return. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you, Luna. But the room was cold it could have used some sunlight," she said turning to face me hiding all traces of sadness."What happened?" I asked sitting up in my bed clutching my head. I felt different. I could see differently. Things were much brighter. I could smell better and the smells were overpowering each other. I could hear the sound of Hera's beating heart and I could hear everyone's talking as well as heartbeats downstairs.I brought my hands up and covered my ears but then I heard the sound of Creed's voice. "I don't know Liam," he sounded scared. "I can't explain why I did that to her.""You bit her," Elias's voice was one of outrage and I touched my neck and remembered th

I decided to take that shower once everyone left. I exited the bathroom to see Creed standing by the long window. He turned to look at me, his eyes darkening and his heartbeat quickening. I held my towel tighter around me and cleared my throat. "I thought you left."He shut his eyes tightly and released a breath. When he opened them again they were back to green. He started to walk slowly towards me with his hands behind his back. "I'm still mad at you for the wolfsbane injection," I found myself taking a step back with each step he took towards me, my own heartbeat erratic while I tried to work out what he was doing, "it hurt like a bitch princess." His voice was low. "I didn't think kissing you would be that dangerous," he furthered. His voice was dangerously calm and my back hit the bathroom door.He trapped me against the door his hands on either side of my head. His green eyes amused as a smirk settled on his face. "I said I was sorry

The pack wolves that were injured were taken to the infirmary. Alpha's healed faster than normal wolves and when I looked at Creed an hour later, his wounds were gone. I sat in the living room with Elias, Liam, and Jordan while they discussed what they were going to say to Dallas. "Do you think she will believe us?" Jordan asked. Liam sighed, "She has no reason not to." "Luna," Hera called and I looked up. I thought I told you not to call me that. I tried the mindlink again finding it easier under less pressure. She rolled her eyes at me and kept her lips in a straight line. But you are my luna and I will address you as such in front of the others. Arguing with Hera about this was pointless. I just had to get used to the title when we weren't alone. "Yes, what is it Hera?" "We are going down to the cells to interrogate the omega's

I paced in my room anxiously, anticipating seeing my friends again. A lot had changed in a span of a month, learning that supernaturals existed and becoming supernatural.There was a knock on the door followed by the doorknob turning and Hera sticking her head in. "Alpha Creed is downstairs. He's waiting for you." I nodded and she walked into the room shutting the door behind her."Something seems to be bothering you. Are the events of yesterday still playing over in your mind?""I had a life Hera. It wasn't the best life but a life of a working woman. I was going to struggle and I was going to make it and become someone someday and then everything changed and now I'm becoming a wolf instead.""Do you not want to be a wolf?" She questioned."It's not something I would have chose. I saw the pain Creed went through. I don't know if I'd survive my bones breaking and rearranging." Hera remained silent as she ob

Creed parked the car in my campus parking lot. We got out of the car and he cracked his back, his bones making a sickening crunch sound. He looked around at the students and then at me. "I didn't know pot was legal?" He said turning in my direction.I shook my head. "Could you not be so loud." It was a quarter to three and the sun was high up in the sky. I could see the heat lines floating above the ground.Though it was quite warm out my anxiety had my body doing this weird thing of heating and cooling. My fingers were icy while my face and ears were hot. The hair on my body stood and that bubble of anxiety settled in the pit of my stomach."Where is your dorm room?" Creed asked and my mouth felt dry. He cupped my chin and tilted my head up for me to look at him. He placed a chaste peck on my lips and his green eyes settled into mine.I was immediately transported to the serene grassy and flower fields of

Creed left me and Kris alone together. I could tell he was not happy about me sharing so much with my best friend but said nothing about it because he knew how important she was to me. "Are you going to reverse it?" She asked and I just stared blankly at her. "El reverse it. You can have your life back."This life that a small part of me wanted so desperately to hold onto. "I'm Creed's mate. If I don't go through with the transition I can never have his children.""But Eleanora you don't even know what you two are to each other.""I know Kris. How can I call him mine when he doesn't belong to me. When he refuses to define our relationship and when he expresses his feelings for me on his terms.

To Love A Beast Epilogue
A few months later and our packhouse was rebuilt even bigger and stronger than before. We were lucky that the previous Alpha had a lot of assets and money in private accounts which helped us rebuild.Creed had done what his brothers asked and turned them into wolves. Their first shift was messy Elias killed two deers. He vomited for three days straight disgusted that he had consumed raw meat.Liam was more in control of his wolf compared to how the rest of us had been when we first shifted and Jordan disappeared for the night. Our pack warriors found him wandering by the roadside naked and confused the next morning.We had all found a new normal to work with. The boys opened up a shipping company in Phoenix and I went back to college to finish my psychology degree.Creed was very supportive about it and even helped me study at times. I wish he was helping me study at the moment because my brain felt bombar

A week had passed with everyone falling into a comfortable routine. I sat outside with May and Mia while I watched them play peekaboo. I always wanted daughters and May and Mia were exactly what I thought it would be like.Elias had gone to Germany with Reuel and they came back with a purple crystal on a silver necklace for Mia. The crystal would absorb her magic if she tried to do any while she wore it. Elias said it was what was best keeping her true nature from her but I believed otherwise.They also came back with tweed bracelets for the entire pack which I thought was strange. Creed ordered everyone to keep the bracelets on. When I had asked him why he would say, 'please just wear it for me, Eleanora.'As for the rest of the Cacciatore's when they woke up they were at the airport. It was like they had amnesia. We didn't let them see Creed or the rest of the boys in the case it triggered their memories.

I woke up with my head throbbing as if someone had whacked me with a baseball bat over it last night. I looked around the dark room my eyes adjusting to the minimal lighting. My memory of last night was hazy. I remembered I shifted and Creed was with me.I was running through the forest my white paws hitting the ground hard. I had smelt something deliciously mouth-watering. The other wolves couldn't catch me they were trying to stop me but I didn't want to stop.I felt this sharp pain pierce my leg before I went down to the ground. The memory caused me to look down at my leg. It was badly bruised and my skin looked like it was burned.Where on earth was I. The cell didn't look like the cells below the packhouse. As I sat up looking at the mattress and sheet on the floor. A sense of Deja vu hit me.I jumped up from my bed but then stumbled back. I felt weak and could barely stand but that was not the worst

I panted as I tried to keep up with Hera. We were running along a trail in the forest. It was a part of my training to strengthen my core. According to the other wolves, if I exercised regularly and stretched the shift wouldn't be that hard on my body. "Keep up Luna," Hera said running ahead of me and I stopped to grab a drink from my water bottle.My muscles were sore, we had been training and strengthening my core for the past week. I was exhausted and all I longed for was a pillow and a blanket. At this point I wasn't fussy I'd sleep where I dropped.I removed my shirt that was drenched in sweat and Hera's eyes widened. "The alpha has marked you as his mate," she grinned causing me to choke on my water. I was very careful the past week in hiding my mark. In a moment of exhaustion, I had forgotten."What, what are you talking about?" I stuttered in an attempt to act as if I didn't know what she was talking about and a cheeky smile overtook her face

Hera bounced the crying baby off her hip. "I honestly thought the only time I'd be going through this was when you and the Alpha decided to have children of your own," she said causing my heart to shrivel.That conversation about our relationship still hurt whenever I thought about it. I predict we would have children in the next twenty years with how Creed behaved around me.He chose not to be left alone with me. So I doubt Hera's dreams about a little one of our own would come true any time soon. Since Creed couldn't look at me let alone touch me.Sapphire walked into the room pushing a crib. "This is Arty's old crib," she said in exhaustion wiping the sweat off her brow. "We'll have to get this little princess a new one.""I still can't believe you dug that thing out of the attic," Hera said above the crying child.Sapphire stood up straight and looked at the baby. "She still hasn't sto

It had been three days since our trip to Phoenix. It felt good to see Kris again. Creed and I never spoke about what our relationship meant after that day. I knew his reasons for trying not to get too close to me but every time I saw him I felt my body gravitate to him. It's like I had blinders when he was in my line of vision I focused on nothing but him and for a moment he looked at me the same until he came back to a sense of reality and walked away. That part always felt like my heart was being torn into a million tiny pieces. I hated the fact that he pushed me away. It was agony I never felt before. Maybe it was a wolf-mate thing that I wanted to be as close to him as possible all the time but he wouldn't let me. He would run away if I got too close to him. There were times he would leave the house and shift into his wolf and run into the forest. I didn't know whether to be amused at his creativity or offended.
