Storm
The flight from Houston to Dublin took just under ten hours. On the flight, I did what Winter and Felix had said, and set up the phone with my favourite apps and downloaded music onto Spotify. We were halfway over the Atlantic Ocean when Winter and I had renounced our ties to the Hunter’s Moon Pack, which meant that we no longer had any links to that pack.
During the flight, Winter had sent me a text message that contained the details for my new email account and various other accounts that she had set up for me in my new identity. She also gave me my newly forged documents that her friend had made for me. I took a quick look at my new identity, noting the name, Lena Wolf, smiling at the irony of the name, as I placed everything into my backpack.
By the time we had landed in Ireland, it was almost three o’clock in the afternoon. Seeing as how all of us were exhausted from the long flight, we decided we would eat our dinner and sleep on the plane for the night as the trip had wiped us out. Another reason we stayed on the plane for the night was so we could maintain a low profile. This was because one of the most likely places for us to have the misfortune of running into other werewolves was at an airport.
Alicia, our air stewardess made us a nice dinner, and after we had eaten, the six of us sat and watched a movie before falling asleep. The next morning, Felix woke me up to the sound of Alicia making us a nice English breakfast. Winter was taking a shower, and after we had eaten our breakfast, I went and had a shower and freshened up, before changing into an outfit that was very similar to the one that I had worn the day before.
I put the clothes I had just taken off into a plastic shopping bag and placed the shopping bag into one of my duffel bags, so I could launder the items once I had gotten to the university. After I had finished getting freshened up, my duffel bags were taken from the plane and loaded up into Felix’s hire car, which was a black Range Rover. Once I had said my goodbyes to the flight crew, and thanked them for a great flight, Winter and I got into the car with Felix. We made the two-and-a-half-hour trip to the university campus in Galway, and as we drove, I took in the scenery of my new home. It was beautiful to say the least.
When we arrived at the university campus, I couldn’t help but admire the structure of the buildings and the beautiful grounds of the campus. It was marvellous. I was so excited to finally be here! The three of us got out of the car and made our way into the administrations building, and I spoke with the ladies in the office getting my welcome packet and paperwork, before we made our way back out to the car so that Felix could grab my bags. A moment later, he was following Winter and I upstairs, as we went looking for my assigned dorm room.
Storm When we arrived at the door of my dorm room, I knocked on the door just out of courtesy, not wanting to make a poor impression with my roommate by walking in on something gross, say like my roommate shagging a guy on the kitchen table for example. When the room’s door opened, a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes answered it, her scent hitting me, immediately alerting me to the fact that she was a werewolf. I felt a cold shiver run along my spine as I realized I was going to be living on another pack’s territory. In my excitement at the thought of finally getting away from my pack and beginning a new life for myself, I had never even thought of this being a possibility. Being here with this girl was dangerous. I was in just as much danger, maybe more, living here with this girl as I had been living within my old pack. Packs hate rogues, and I was now a rogue after having renounced my pack ties with my father’s pack. Masking my features to hide my concer
Lilly The moment the door closed, and my new roommate and her family had walked down the hall, I bolted into the bedroom which was directly across from mine on the other side of the lounge room. Jumping into the air like I had seen Spiderman do in heaps of movies, I launched myself on top of the sleeping form of my sister Leah, landing on her like a human cannonball. Leah sat up in fright, screaming at me, “Lilly for the love of God, have you lost your ever-loving mind?” Ignoring her question, I cried, “You guys will never guess what has just happened!” “All I can say is for you to wake me up in this fashion, someone had better have died,” Leah snapped, clearly not impressed with my choice of morning wake ups for her. “Well, we all might die in our sleep tonight, does that count?” I retorted, looking at her expectantly as I awaited her answer. “Just what the hell is that supposed to mean?” my other sister Julie asked from her bed on th
Storm I stood there in front of the dorm building and watched as Felix and Winter drove off in the hire car. Once the car was out of sight, I made my way back upstairs to the dorm room which would now be my home for the next four years. When I got back up to my room, I was standing at the door when I realised that I had left my key on my bed with the information pack the administration lady had given me earlier. With tears still streaming silently down my cheeks, I knocked on the door and a moment later Lilly opened the door again, smiling at me. “Sorry, I forgot my key,” I explained to her as I stepped inside the dorm room, wiping the tears from my face. “That’s okay,” she said quietly as she smiled at me. I quietly followed Lilly into the room that I would be sleeping in. When I got in the room, I noticed that there were two other blonde girls sitting on Lilly’s bed, and just like Lilly they were also werewolves. Seeing my confusion, Lilly sai
Storm I thought that it was crazy that I had been here in Ireland for a week already, but I had to admit, I had found that I had seemed to be finding my feet alright. Since I had been here, I had taken to working out extensively in the university’s gym at all hours of the day and night and running for hours along assorted paths of an evening and between classes. It hadn’t taken me long to settle into my classes and honestly; I was finding university life extremely enjoyable. Winter and I had taken to calling each other every Tuesday and Friday night. This was so we could keep in touch easier. I enjoyed talking to her about what her and Felix had both been doing throughout the week and filling her in on my week. It was great that we were able to let each other know we were okay. I found I had peace of mind knowing she was okay, and I am sure she felt the same way. The girls and I had been spending a lot of time together outside of classes, and it surpr
Leah My sisters and I had fallen into a comfortable friendship with Lena since she had arrived at the university campus. Yes, she was a rogue, but she didn’t behave in the usual manner of any rogue I had ever met. Not that I had met many. In all honesty, I had never met a rogue before. But I had been told stories about rogues from my dad and my Uncle Sean and my Aunt Siobhan. I had heard about how they were all merciless and blood thirsty killers. But hearing those things about rogues, and seeing Lena in the flesh, had left me torn on my opinion of rogues. How many rogues had been perceived to be dangerous when they weren’t actually dangerous at all? How many good people just like Lena, had been brutally killed simply for being rogues? Every day I rang my dad and kept him apprised of the situation regarding Lena. I clarified that he had nothing to worry about. I told him that Lena was harmless, and that she was just a student who wanted to complete her school
Lilly We had finished our classes for the day, and we were making our way to the path we had chosen to run along of an evening. Ever since Lena had moved into the dorm with us, she had been working out like she was possessed. A week ago, she had announced to us at breakfast that she was going to get us girls into the routine of running and exercising every day to build up our fitness levels. I had to say, I enjoyed the time we spent exercising with Lena. Lena pushed us to challenge ourselves, and it felt good to know what I could do. The thing I liked most when it came to exercising with Lena was that I had learned I was much stronger than I had first thought I was. The first few times we had exercised with her, my sisters and I had felt as though we were going to die the next day. But we still looked forward to our afternoon exercise sessions. What surprised me was how much energy Lena had. She ran three times a day and worked out in the gym morning and nigh
Storm The morning of my eighteenth birthday had arrived! I was sitting in the lounge room on the big three-seater lounge chair listening to Leah and Julie have a playful argument regarding a guy that Julie was convinced Leah had a thing for. I knew that she didn’t have romantic feelings for anybody, and that all this teasing was just in good fun. By now these crazy arguments between the girls over random nothings had become the norm for me since I had been living here with them. It was almost like they got off on annoying the crap out of each other. In an attempt to win the argument, Julie had recruited Lilly onto her side. The plan had obviously been for Lilly to help Julie to gang up on Leah. Not wanting to be outdone by them, Leah was now trying to recruit me onto her side. But now that they had seen what Leah was trying to do, Lilly and Julie had decided they were not going to let that happen! So, they were trying to get me to side with them as well.
Storm At the mere mention of his name, I could sense my heart rate pick up as my anxiety increased, and I was sure that I was going to have a panic attack. I had been socialising and living with the offspring of a highly feared Alpha, and I had had no idea of the problems I was creating for myself, as I had built friendships with them. I wasn’t surprised that I hadn’t known they were from an Alpha family though; I mean, I had obviously never seen the girls in their wolf forms. But to know I had been living with the daughters of the worlds most renowned rogue killer, I was now feeling more terrified than I had felt in a while. I had come here to get away from my father and brother who terrified me, and now I was having to deal with a highly feared rogue killer. This wasn’t going to end well! I think it was safe to say that my luck had officially run out! The problem was, the girls being from an Alpha family, meant that now that their father had taken an intere
Storm The next morning, Doyle was so excited about the pregnancy that he couldn’t contain his excitement. From the moment we had woken up, he had been grinning like the cat that had gotten the cream, the milk, and the canary. When we had gotten Dalton and gone downstairs, he had announced it to everyone at the breakfast table. There had been cheers and congratulations and a few dirty jokes, but everyone was just as excited as we were about our new little surprise. After breakfast, Doyle had announced a pack meeting just as he had promised he would, and we had left to go to the place where my induction ceremony had taken place. When we arrived, I had looked at all the pack members who had been so warm and welcoming towards me and who could not contain their joy for me and Doyle when Dalton had been born; they had welcomed me into the pack as if I was part of their family. Now I was a little worried that they were all going to hate me
Storm We had flown back to Ireland, and I was glad to be back home. Doyle and I had hugged our baby boy close as soon as we had gotten home, and we had spent the evening watching movies with Leah, Lilly, and Julie. Mike had joined us as well. It had been a good family night. Before we had left Texas, Winter had pulled me aside and asked me so many questions about my life in Ireland. I know she wanted to make sure that I was happy, and that I was safe. I understood the protective side of her. She had stepped into the role of my mother right after our mother had been killed. I had explained everything to her. I had told her about Dalton, and I had explained to her that as a mother, I had held off mentioning him before, because I was protecting him. My baby had been the most important thing in my life, and I couldn’t risk Mason or our father finding out about his existence. As a new mother, Winter understood where I was coming from in that matter. We had talked about ou
Storm "I am only going to say this once, so all of you fuckers had better listen. I mean it, every single one of you. Even if Winter, Leon, Finn, and I have to tag-team it and fight our way through every member of this pack and have bodies piling up left, right and centre. I can firmly assure you, one way or another Finn and Leon will be the Alpha’s of this pack by sundown. Or at least what would be left of this pack anyway, because if anyone has earned the right to go on a killing spree through this fucked up pack… it is me! And rest assured if I start fighting any of you, those two will be right in the thick of it, so good luck with that,” I said, pointing to Doyle and Sean. “Now Josh, pull your head out of your ass and think before you speak. Because, since I have been back here, all you mutts have been acting as if this is all my fault. Like things suddenly went bad after I left! Lightbulb moment for all of you. Things were always bad in this pack and had been si
Storm I looked back towards the pack and said, “Members of the Hunter's Moon Pack as the two rightful heirs to this pack my sister Winter and I are going to install leadership for this pack. So, may I present to you, our choices for dual leadership, Leon, and Finn Weber. They are Alpha Felix’s brothers, so they are from an Alpha family, and they have our full support in this matter. So, if all of you screw up, we will all kick you asses.” Josh stepped forward, “Like hell, no way! You pair of traitorous bastards ran away like little cowards in the dead of the night. Where were the two of you when the pack was under attack? Hiding just like cowards, that’s where! Neither one of you deserves to be Alpha of this pack!” Josh spat; anger clearly displayed on his face. “And let me guess Josh. I suppose you think you deserve to be the Alpha of this pack!” I said looking at Josh and laughing in disgust. “I would be a better Alpha then either of you!” he
Storm As soon as we landed in Texas, Doyle hired an SUV to take us to the Hunter’s Moon pack’s territory. Upon our arrival there, it surprised me to see just how much damage had been done during the attack. There were burned out structures everywhere, and I could tell by the small number of people that were out and about tidying up, that the pack had suffered quite a significant loss in pack numbers. As soon as people saw me, I began receiving looks of hostility and blame. I didn’t let this phase me though. I didn’t like these people any more than they liked me. And as far as I was concerned, I didn’t care what they thought of me. I was standing beside Doyle and Sean when I sent a text to Winter. Me: Back in hell, where are you? Winter: Back on Texas soil, be with you soon xx Looking at one of the men who was standing nearby, I said, “You need to call a pack meeting now. Every pack member must be in attendance. Tell all the p
Storm During the flight I went and lay down in the master bedroom. I had so much on my mind, and I was totally wiped out. Plus, I was concerned about my baby. Separation anxiety had kicked in big time and had left me crying just like a baby. A while later, after my cry baby episode, I was laying in the dark trying to clear my head when Doyle came in. When he looked at me, he could see I had been crying. He came over to the bed and lay down beside me, pulling me into his arms. I lay there in his arms, with my head on his chest. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Separation anxiety,” I whispered. “You’re missing Dalton?” he asked. I nodded in answer to his question. “I miss him already,” I whispered. “That is normal love. You will be worrying until you have him in your arms again and can see with your own eyes that he is safe,” he replied. I lifted my head, bracing all my weight on my right arm. I looked down at him for a moment before p
Storm Three weeks later I was in the nursery restocking baby supplies with Leah when Lilly came upstairs to tell me that Doyle wanted to see me in his office. “Why didn’t he just use mind link and tell me?” I asked. “I don’t know, he just told me that if I saw you, I was to tell you he wanted to see you in his office,” Lilly replied. “Better go down there, you don’t want to keep him waiting,” Leah said. I walked out of the nursery and made my way to Doyle’s office. When I got there, I saw that Sean was sitting at Doyle’s desk, in the chair opposite Doyle. I walked in and closed the door behind me. “We have got some news for you,” Doyle said as I walked over to his desk. “Okay…” I replied, taking a seat beside Sean. “We have received word that the Hunter’s Moon pack was attacked and that the pack has lost many of their pack members. I thought you should know,” Doyle said, watching me closely so he could get
Storm “Lena, what the fuck?” snapped James glaring at me. “Watch your mouth!” Sean snapped back. “You don’t ever speak to your Luna like that, or you will have me to deal with! Do you understand me?” Doyle asked glaring at James. “Yes Alpha, my apologies,” James said lowering his eyes. “Don’t apologise to me boy, apologies are owed to your Luna,” Doyle growled. “Apologies Luna,” James said looking at me. I met his gaze and just gave him a deep guttural growl. So, he could lower his eyes in respect to Doyle, but not to me. Suddenly I was annoyed, and my wolf was feeling bitchy and decided she needed to show it. She decided it was time to call James out on his shit and I agreed with her. It was past time to sort this crap out. Opening my mind link to the pack members within the room, I asked, “James, where were you and Daniel the day that the girls and I went for a run and got attacked by the rogues at the stream? You and
Storm After my father’s phone call, we finished up our pack business in Doyle’s office before making our way downstairs to check on Liam and the girls and the baby. When I got downstairs, I saw James and Daniel and James’ mate Sophie in the lounge room with Liam and the others. Well, well, well looks like today is my lucky day. It had been ages since I had seen Daniel and James, so it surprised me to see them and Sophie sitting there with Liam and the girls like it was an everyday occurrence. Sophie was getting too close to Leah and Dalton for my liking. After what that bitch had tried to do to Lilly, my wolf and I wanted her dead. I looked at Lilly who was sitting in the lounge's corner suite, curled up in a ball and looking like she was about to burst into tears. I could feel my wolf clawing within me to get out and wanting to kill Sophie to protect Dalton and Lilly. Before I could lock her down, my wolf took total control, and she forcibly shifted me int
