Chapter 21: A face not so friendly

The luna was right. I might be up and about on my feet, but that doesn't mean that I have recovered full strength. Still despite my weakened state I wanted to fight. The guilt inside was eating me alive. This is my fault, and fighting along side them will go a long way vindicating my guilt. I opened my mouth to argue when Dustin spoke. "Please Fallon, listen to my mother. We can handle the rogues." His brown eyes were pleading with me to listen, and he looked a little worried as if scared of something happening to me. Seeing his expression I didn't have the heart to be stubborn about this, so I sat down back while Dustin and his father made their way to the door, but not before the Alpha kissed his wife goodbye. Their tender exchange made my eyes wet as memories of my parents bombarded my mind. I prayed in my mind that what befell my pack isn't about to befall this pack. I don't know how long my worried eyes lingered on the door after Dustin and the Alpha left before the Luna's voi

Chapter 22: His Blackmail

A groan left helplessly from my lips at being disturbed. Right now all I craved was some peace and quiet, and not having to deal with any shit. Unless...The thought of this interruption being news about Dustin had me flying up from the bed and looking towards the door with hopeful expression on my face that immediately dashed to the ground like a shattering glass of water when I saw who was leaning against the door. His tall lean frame was poised against the door diagonally, and as usual he had this unreadable expression on his gorgeous face that is so unrevealing. I hated that I couldn't tell why he was here, but knowing him it can't be good. "I see you are happy to see me," he said in cool voice, lifting his body off the door frame and inviting himself further into the room. I should have put a do not disturb sign out on the door. How did he even know I was in the next room to his. Of all rooms, and having seen the size of this place, I am sure there is a lot, the luna had to put

Chapter 23: We are in deep shit

Oopsies! I exclaimed as I stared out through Frost's eyes at the trap we just walked in. I mean, how did they know we will be here? Or maybe it was pure coincidence. Whatever one it was, Frost didn't like having rifles obviously filled with silver bullets pointed right at her. My girl let out a loud snarl that had the guys taking a step back in caution even though they were the ones with the guns. Looks like mine is bigger than theirs. Haha. Now, quit messing around Fallon. This is some serious shit, I scolded myself, while Frost kept keen eyes on the rogues. "Wo wo, what do we have here?" One of the men, a tall one with a long goatee, and an appearance like he hasn't washed for days,---judging from how bad he reeked hasn't ---said through a sly smirk, the look in his eyes making me shudder in revulsion. He was staring at me wolf like he wanted to gulp her up.Ew! dude, she is an animal, I made a face while Frost growled again, neither appreciating the dude taking liberties with his

Chapter 24: Why is he here?

That was Dustin. I wasn't the only one who felt the presence of the new arrivals. The rogues did, too, and they all grew nervous except for their leader, who still had a calm thinking expression on his scarred face. He has a nasty scar running down his left cheek, and one of his eyes is opaque like he lost his pupil or something else happened. Don't care, but it did give him a dangerous appearance. The other rogues looked at the leader for his decision, but he had all his attention on us. Frost and I did our best to keep on our feet despite the exhaustion we were facing and the deep gash on our side. I could feel her eyes growing blurring, but my better half will die first before she reveals a weakness to an enemy so we stood like we were ready to battle another dozens of them if that is what is required. Dustin smell grew stronger as him and his group drew nearer to us. His approaching presence is feeling Frost and I with joy, and I hope that perhaps we will live to fight another d

Chapter 25: Her fate is in peril once again

I would love nothing more than to expose that cold fish for his cruelty and funniest towards me, but then again, his threat still hung over my head. I slowly lifted my eyes to Dustin to see him watching me with eagerness and worry in his eyes. He was keen for the reason behind my foolish decision, and so is his mother. Seeing how much he cared made me want to protect him the more. He has shown his friendship and loyalty without even knowing who I was. He was a boy with a brave heart, and I feel guilty not just because of what we did but because of what I was doing. "Then stop." "How could I? He is the only hope that our pack has," I replied sadly to Frost. I didn't expect this amount of guilt, but then again, my loyalty lies with my pack and no one else. "I was feeling guilty." The words I whispered in a low voice, casting my gaze from everyone else. The room has actually cleared, and it is just Dustin, Nyx, and the doctor. I was glad to have some breathing space and having not to

Chapter 26: Clash between brothers

His words ended the discussion on the topic. His words were all true, and there is no arguing that. I saw how hard it was for Dustin to give in, and that touched my heart. When his parents and the doctor left, he lingered. "I am sorry," he said quietly once we were alone. He looked like he had failed me somehow. I looked at him and then reached for his hand. I needed the contact. "Don't be," I whispered in the same tone, staring into his eyes. He didn't hold my stare for long. He looked away like he had something to hide. "What?"He shook his head with a mixed expression on his face like he was finding it difficult to put his thoughts into words. "Tell me," I begged. Encouraging him not to bottle it all inside. If I don't know what he is thinking, how can I help him. He left me hanging for a few more seconds before he slowly lifted his eyes to mine. His beautiful brown eyes were full of the troubles of his thoughts, whatever they were. "I feel helpless and angry inside," he blurted

Chapter 27: Unwanted desires

The situation in the room was getting too volatile, and I needed to do something to diffuse it before Dustin said more words that could further hurt his relationship with his brother. No matter how much I dislike the prick, I wouldn't want him fighting with his brother on my account, and I know how much being this way was hurting Dustin. Chase might not care, but Dustin does. The only reason he reacted like this is because of me. "Guys, please stop," I said softly, but it barely made a dent in the tension between the brothers as they continued to stare angrily at each other. Chase combative stance dissolved, and his posture relaxed, but his eyes remained hard with his anger and hatred now directed at his brother. "You are right, brother of mine. I shouldn't pick a fight with you. After all, you are the one with the big bad wolf. And we both know that here having a beast inside you is all that matters. But take care, brother, that the situation doesn't change in the future," he smirke

Chapter 28: His good deed that bites

The dawn of a new day brought with it the healing of my wound, and along with it, anxiousness about my fate. I have been up even before the sun appeared in front of the sky, despite having gone to sleep late. I was kept up by the battling thoughts of the two brothers, which I must say is still unresolved, though my course of action should I remain in this pack remained unchanged. I must confess worried about which brother I liked more was the least of my problem this morning as I kept glancing towards the door every five seconds expecting Dustin, or anyone to walk through the door and let me know what the fuck is going on. My door has seen so many people come through it. The doctor, the nurses, the servants bearing food, but none of the people with the news I was dreading and at the same time longing to hear. Now it is afternoon, and still no words from anyone. The door opened again, and my heart jumped into my throat in anticipation only for my expression to wane when I saw the g

Chapter 29: A case of delusion

The expression on Dustin's face was ambiguous. I couldn't understand what he was feeling right now. He looked uncomfortable about something. I continued to watch his face even though I couldn't figure out his expression waiting for him to explain why, in the devil's hell, did he think that Lucifer did anything for my sake. It must really be a case of delusion. Dustin sighed sadly before responding in a weird tone. "I think my brother likes you." "Say what now!" I burst into laughter. I laughed until my belly ached, and all the while, Dustin stood watching me with a patient expression on his face. waiting for my amusement to fade with no sign of irritation. when I was able to control myself, I shook my head at him like he was too naive. "Thanks for your little joke. It helped relax me," I patted his hard shoulder, still wearing a smile on my face. I started off toward the screen on the other side of the room to change into the clothes

Chapter 30: Swearing Fealty

The elders looked pleased at my honesty. They glanced at each other, communicating with their eyes before turning around to look at me. "We are happy to welcome you to the pack, but first, you have to swear loyalty to us," said the elder in the middle. I looked at them confused. How do you swear loyalty to a pack? Do you kneel? Bow? Prostrate?They must have seen the confusion on my face because one of them spoke up to clarify. "You have to go down on your knees, head bowed, and swear that you will never do anything to harm or betray this pack..."That is easy enough, I relaxed thinking that the elder was finished, but he wasn't. "Even at the expense of your own pack," he finished. My whole body went rigid. The essence of this whole charade isn't just for them to offer me refuge, I intend to use their pack to liberate mine. What if they say no. According to this oat, I won't be able to do anything about it because the well-being of their pack will have to come before mine. The he
