Only Escape

As soon as the glass shattered, I could hear the sounds of people scrambling to my room. I guess the Alpha hadn’t expected me to be brave enough to vandalise his home to escape. As soon as I got out of the window, I allowed Lumi to take over. The meagre clothes Ben’s people had put me in were of no consequence to me, so there was no mourning of clothes tonight.

As soon as our feet darted forward, we could hear the alarm-howls going out to the whole packhouse, and knew it wouldn’t be long before the arm spread to the town as well. We had little time. Sprinting forward, we rounded the corner to the front of the packhouse, aiming for the outskirts of the town. We were going to be free of this troublesome situation one way or another! I just knew it!

That is when we almost slammed into a light grey wolf. Right away, we could tell who it was. Vanessa had already s

  • Wed to the Alpha   River Rave

    I don’t remember how I survived the fall down the cliff’s edge. The impact against the surface of the river itself should have done quite a number on me, and if not that, the coldness or the strength in which it dragged me along. Even as a werewolf, there was no way I could have swum against the current. The only thing I remember was slowly dragging myself to the river bank the moment the current relaxed. My paws gave out under me. Even Lumi was so exhausted that she had gone back to sleep. Or perhaps whatever had happened on the cliff tops had drained her? I couldn’t bring myself further away from the riverbank, so I found myself a large rock that was smooth enough to crawl on. It was going to be a long, chilly night, so I stayed in this form. If I tried to survive in a human form, I would surely succumb to the elements, but in this form, I at least had a chance.

  • Wed to the Alpha   Home Sweet Home

    Finally, we make it back to our own territory. The way back had been tense, as we had no way of knowing if the packs would surround and use their numbers against us. However, that never came to pass. The only thing I could think of that would explain it all was that they were not a united force. They did all seem to dislike one another and only held a shaky truce.As soon as we made it to the resort, I couldn’t wait to fall into bed at last. I was cold, hungry, and just exhausted. Period. Blu bounded over to me and at first, I couldn’t help but wince, ready for the onslaught of overly cheerful conversations. I adored her, but there were times a person just needed some space, and right now was one of those times.As soon as she got to my side, she stopped before me and hesitated. This wasn’t like her at all. Has she noticed my unwillingness to

  • Wed to the Alpha   Each New Attack

    This is the third attack this week now. I’ve been more conscious about not leaving the resort, even if I’ve gotten upset over something. It is almost as though the other packs have become desperate to get rid of us, but I still don’t understand why. I have almost stopped trying to grasp the why behind their attacks. Watching a couple of wolves flee to recover, I can’t help but wonder if the other packs will eventually just join as one unit and try that way. It would have made more sense and yielded better results. Best not give them any ideas, though. With how none of them trusts the other and is constantly plotting against one another, it is probably the only thing that keeps us from being whipped out completely. “I can’t help but wonder,” I say, glancing at where Blu is beside me, “why are they so determined to kill us off?”

  • Wed to the Alpha   All Mad Here

    ‘Kill. Cut. Burn. Devour.’ The whispers were no longer almost inaudible sounds made rarely. They have become a frustrating part of my day now. No one else could hear them, and any time I asked if anyone heard them, I was met with a strange look. Going to the healers proved fruitless. They merely told me it was just stress and to take a break from fighting for a couple of days. That was easier said than done and I did not believe it could be stress causing it. No. This was something else entirely, but I couldn’t figure out what it was. “Are you sure you are hearing things and you are not just tired?” Jay asked, his expression worried as his hands felt my forehead to see if I had a temperature. I narrowed my gaze at him. I didn’t need any words to show him how unimpressed I was with his words. “Fine, fine,” Jay sig

  • Wed to the Alpha   Bucky is Back

    Covering the distance as a wolf compared to the first journey here is much more exciting. I almost completely forget about the whispering voices as I enjoy the sights, smells, and sounds of the forest as we run through it. Though I don’t stop to enjoy the moment as this isn’t us going camping or something. Had we not constantly been attacked and in danger, I would have loved to experience this at a more leisurely pace. Sadly, I don’t think we will ever get that pleasure unless Jay decides we should pack up and find another home. I don’t see that happening anytime soon though. That has been his pack’s land for generations, and it is a suitable spot with food, water and has proven to be profitable enough that we don’t have to rely on outsiders for help. It’s no wonder he could pay off my parents’ debt. They don’t need the money but can sell pelts and meat or anything they don’t use themselves.

  • Wed to the Alpha   Putting Demons to Rest

    “Are you sure about this?” Jay’s voice stirs me awake as I find him not in the bed with me. It’s late, and we had gone to bed together, so he should have been in bed still. I frown as I get out of bed, but pause as I hear Bucky’s voice join in with my mates. “It’ll be safer for you,” he mumbles. He doesn’t sound happy at all. “I don’t know what attracted the demon spirits to her, or if that was a familiar or the demon’s work that helped her escape. What I do know is that she will go mad if she gives in to the whispers. They want her to harm anyone and anything. Including you. She might not have the ability to ignore them for too much longer.” “She’d never hurt me!” Jay’s voice sounds firm, but I can tell from the subtle hitch in his tone that he is anxious. I slowly

  • Wed to the Alpha   The Prophecy

    For what feels like days, when it has only been two at most, Bucky has been sitting in the middle of his meditation circle. I do not know what he is doing, but whatever it is, he requested me to allow the silence to wash over me. I don’t need to meditate, but he said being relaxed and quiet might keep the demonic spirits from being excitable. I admit, the whispering has become less frequent lately, but they haven’t gone entirely. I’m not sure what to make of it all and by all accounts, I should have lost my mind during the first time they showed up. Perhaps it was never an instant thing? Even Bucky can’t know everything. Looking out the window, I can’t help but miss Jay and the rest of the pack. I’ve been speaking with Jay through the mindlink, so it has been less lonely, but nothing compares to his warmth and the feeling of being safe. I absently put another

  • Wed to the Alpha   Thanks and Sequel

    I just want to thank everyone who has come with me on this fluff/adventure/romance of a journey. Although not my first novel, it is one of my first straight-pairings and although I feared Gwen would either be too whiny or hyper, I am glad to see some people enjoyed her personality. I wanted to make her dependable by the end of the book, so I hope I pulled that off. Although I won't be getting to the sequel right away, I do plan to write one for this book. It'll focus on Gwen's twin sons, so please keep an eye out for that in the future! In the meantime, if you want to support me, please leave a review and some gems as I would greatly appreciate it! Even if you didn't like the book, I would like to hear what you think I could approve upon. Much love, and happy reading,Yukiro.

  • Wed to the Alpha   Prologue

    A few months have passed, and although it wasn’t easy, my pack has finally settled into their new home. It had taken us a long time to rebuild, but Bucky had helped us learn how to make cabins and how best to sustain ourselves out here. He couldn’t directly interfere with any conflicts, but he didn’t seem to have any issue with teaching us how to grow crops or forage for fruits.As soon as we were self-sufficient, he would leave us to continue his travels, but for now, he had promised to stay until we no longer had to rely on him. I never brought my pack to see the witches, but the witches knew I was going to bring my pack here, and my pack was now aware of my split bloodline. They never questioned where the witches were, but they knew to be respectful of the forest we now called home.Looking around at the slowly growing village, I couldn&rsq

  • Wed to the Alpha   Living Where

    “You want us to live where!?”Jay’s outrage at where I was taking him and our pack was everything I had expected him to showcase. Luckily, we were so far from Shaun’s lands now that I didn’t fear someone might hear him.Glancing at him, I offered a small smile. “I know you wouldn’t like it, but we don’t have many options,” I reply to him as I turn my attention to Aderyn in the sky. We had taken a very long route to reach Bucky’s place, and we were about halfway there by now.“I’d rather not give up our home,” Jay complained, lowering his voice again.I squeezed his hand in comfort. I knew how he felt and I too did not want to leave our home, but I had made a promise and knew this was for the be

  • Wed to the Alpha   Exodus

    The sound of warning cries enters the town down the bottom of the cliff, letting me know the shadow-wolves have begun their task of distracting everyone. Those who were still up near the backhouse seemed to hesitate before finally running off to join their pack. Shaun must have ordered them to find out what was going on.I wait for everything to be clear before nodding to Jay. “I need to release the prison guard from his sleep before I forget,” I tell him, placing a kiss on Jay’s nose. “I’ll be safe. No one will see me, but you cannot wait for me to get back. Follow Aderyn down the cliff’s path. We’re not going home, unfortunately.”Jay gives me a confused look but nods slowly before he makes his way towards the direction Aderyn leads him and the pack. There are better ways to collect our things than risk our pack

  • Wed to the Alpha   The Bargain

    Shaun looks at me in disbelief. He looks from me to my raven, then back again, as if trying to figure out if this is really all I want in return for my pack. Perhaps he doesn’t even believe me about my shadows or that Aderyn is my familiar. Whatever he thinks, Aderyn has his own plans and glides over to Shaun and lands on his shoulder.Aderyn has Shaun’s full attention now and croaks, “she speaks the truth. She wishes no harm, or else she could have easily done so by now, but she wished to bargain her pack’s freedom for everyone’s safety instead.”“He can’t understand,” I say, but stop as soon as I realise that somehow Shaun has actually understood.Looking at me, Aderyn explains, “we’re connected now. I can pick the language for those to understand m

  • Wed to the Alpha   Alpha to Luna

    As soon as I reached the top of the stairs, I could hear the Alpha and Luna off in the distance and knew Aderyn was still distracting them enough for me to slip on out of the door and shut it behind me. There was no turning back as soon as we enacted the next phase of our plan, so I left the prison door unlocked, just in case my pack needed to make a run for it.I headed towards the Alpha’s room, knowing now where it was. The original plan was to have the Luna leave the packhouse before we caused the distraction, but this was still workable. As I slipped into the bedroom, I shut the curtains to the windows and set to work breaking the lights. I couldn’t have him turning them on and accidentally preventing me from using my gifts.Once that was done, I sent Aderyn the secret code through the shadows to let the raven know it was time to enact the next

  • Wed to the Alpha   Sneaking Around

    With a loud croak, Aderyn leaves the rails and lands on the roof. It peers down at the Alpha and then, with a louder call, tells me, ‘I will distract him.’I nod slowly. Thankfully, only witches can understand familiars, and even then it isn’t always the case that we can understand one that belongs to another witch. Either way, I can get past the Alpha and into his room without being detected.I pause at the door, however, and glance back to Aderyn as he annoys Shaun. Is this really going to work? Just sneak in and sneak out? I can’t bring others with me in the shadows, and there are too many patrols to get out of here without a fight.I frown and turn back to the door. I have to at least confirm everyone is safe and well first, then I can deal with Shaun and his pack after. My idea isn&rsquo

  • Wed to the Alpha   Making Moves

    The water is cold against my skin, even with all this fur on my body. As soon as Aderyn had returned, it let me know I could make it up part of the way before a patrol would become an issue. There were more further up that it would then become impossible, but this would get us past the outskirts of the border and at least as close as where I had washed up on shore the last time I was here. Any further and I’d find it hard to avoid patrols and battle the river’s current.Things can still go wrong, though, so I am cautious about how quietly I make my way upstream. Anytime Aderyn lets off a warning call, I lower my body further into the river’s waters. It takes a bit of practice, but there are spots even here where the shadows can help me blend in with my surroundings. The only issue is they are not as still as those on the ground.To say I am re

  • Wed to the Alpha   Biggest Plan

    After returning to the location of my body, I release the bond with the raven, allowing it to fly back off to its nest or wherever it will go. I then look at Aderyn and sigh softly. “It won’t be easy, but we can get in just fine. It will be the getting out that will prove trickier,” I relay to it.Aderyn cocks its head to the side at me and then croaks, “there are many warriors there, each knowing the layout of the land. Fighting will not be easy for your people.”“I know,” I agree with a single nod. “That doesn’t mean it isn’t possible to find a way out, though.” With a fold of my arms, I mull over my options. I would rather not hurt the other packs, because that’ll just cause even more fear and terror to fill their minds, and now that I know the truth, I don’t want that to be my legacy.“If not to fight, can just scare off.
