Innocent Little Runt
Xavier sighed and tried to move in front of me without scaring me into backing away from him. "It's okay little one," he said as came closer to me. I felt so tiny in his presence, especially in wolf form. He knelt down and tried to move closer but I whimpered and backed up more into the tree. He sighed again before trying again and I tired to put all my fears away as he once again reached out his hand.
I put my head down, hoping that if I couldn't see him, I wouldn't be scared. As I felt his hand on my back and felt tingles explode, I jumped but then relaxed as I got used to it. I calmed down more as he picked up my small frame and held me close before whispering into my ear, "What has happened to you little one?"
*~*~*~*
Celeste has always been running. When she was little a group of rouges killed most of her pack and the remaining wolves ran, including her. Over the years they have slowly split off until it is only her and her mother running. When the rouges once again find them her mother spared her own life to keep her beloved runt safe. She ran, but eventually she could no longer run for her tiny body hadn't had the energy.
Now she has been found by a new pack, The Paramount pack, and she is surprised when she finds her mate. Because how can she, an innocent little runt, have a mate such as Xavier, one of the strongest alphas in the country?

Chapter: EpilougeCeleste's POV A pained scream echoed throughout the pack along with the familiar wail that I hadn't heard in a few months. I sighed and pushed myself up but I was held down by Xavier's arms. "Don't go," he groans out. "He'll be fine." I roll my eyes at him. "Let go of me Xavier or else," I threaten. I gasp as I'm suddenly pinned to the bed, Xavier hovering above me with a smirk on his face. "Or else what?" I go to respond but before I could his lips are on mine. I shove him off of me with all of my strength and even though it doesn't compare to his he moves off of me. I walk to the door and smile when Xavier already has it open for me. It was a new door that Xavier had built to connect to the nursery that was also built while I was pregnant. I walk into the room to see the comforting yellow walls with purple animals painted throughout the room. I quickly run over to the crib and pick up my crying baby boy. His tuff of dark brown hair is a mess as usual but his green eyes

Chapter: Chapter 76Celeste's POV Xavier had me stay in our room while the pack was cleaned up. He didn't want me to see them burning the experiments bodies. That didn't stop the smell that drifted into the room. I just grabbed all of the scented candles that I have in the bathroom for when I want to relax and lit all of them. It wasn't exactly pleasant but it wasn't as bad as the smell of burning bodies. I turned on the television as I tried to ignore the sounds of the large fire that was going on not too far from the balcony. I wanted the memory of this fight gone. Everyone did. Jared seemed over protective of Zay now. It was understandable of course. His sister had died, like actually died. I remember his screams when he saw her. Everyone was devastated. I couldn't even look at her but Jared was the most heart broken, perhaps second next to Kaleshia. Thanks to Kaleshia though, she is back. Kaleshia says she is immortal now but that it was the only way she could save her. I don't know how Zay

Chapter: Chapter 75Kaleshia's POV I sobbed as I held Zay's body. She's gone. She left me. I tried to ignore the sound of the few remaining experiments pounding on the barrier I had put up around Zay and I. "Stop!" I screamed at them, "Go away!" I held her to me tighter. "Please go away," I whispered. They wouldn't listen of course. They kept pounding at the barrier, ignoring when their arms, hands, or feet would get shocked. I looked around the yard through blurry eyes. There was very few experiments that weren't around Zay and I and it seemed that the others were handling them just fine. Are we winning? No, we aren't. At least I'm not. I lost the moment I lost Zay. I screamed, forcing the barrier away from me at least a few feet. The experiments screamed as they fell to the ground, dying. I forced the barrier back to me, knowing I was using up all of my energy. Even if I can't die, someone could kill me. Using up my energy would make it easier for them. I didn't want to live anymore. Not w

Chapter: Chapter 74Lycer's POV I look around from the roof of the pack house. I can't tell who is winning this battle. They have more casualties than we do but they have so many people. No, they're not people. They're not even werewolves anymore. They're just experiments. In the end, no one is truly going to win I think. A bright blue light starts to come from one side of the yard and I quickly turn around to see what it is. Kaleshia is on the ground, a blue barrier seeming to surround her as she holds something in her arms. No, someone. I squint my eyes and anger surges through me when I see that it's Zay's non-moving form. I quickly go back to doing what I was doing before, looking for Malum. I spot Xavier who I knew was doing the same thing. He shakes his head, telling me he hasn't seen him either. I described what he looks like so Xavier can at least guess, not to mention he'd be one of the only ones to look normal who isn't from his pack. There might be a few experiments who look kind of

Chapter: Chapter 73Zay's POV I stared at Celeste, wide eyed. "What?" I finally spoke after what seemed forever of silence. "Please don't make me say it again. I almost threw up the first time." I nodded but I couldn't stop staring at her in shock. "How do you know?" I'm the pack doctor, she should have come to me when she thought of it even being possible. "I uh. . . I remembered that Lesa said she started to get morning sickness before she was even sure. I tried to keep it hidden from Xavier, thinking maybe I just got food poisoning. But after a few days I went into your office while Xavier was working and you weren’t there. I took a few of the pregnancy tests. When the first one said positive, I didn't believe it but the next two said the same thing." She put her head in her hands and let out a breath. "You haven't told Xavier?" She shook her head. "How long ago was this?" She looked back up to me, her eyes almost as worried as mine. "Less than a week ago I think. I mean, I have bee

Chapter: Chapter 72Zay's POV I stared around at the pack. Everyone was rushing around, trying to do whatever they could. Those who couldn't fight went to the shelters while everyone else tried to find weapons or something that could help them in battle. Even those who fight mainly in wolf form knew weapons could help. At this point, anything could help. My eyes dart to a blonde woman with purple highlights and a baby in her arms running towards me. "Lesa! What are you doing out here? Get inside!" Lesa was a great and gifted fighter, especially in human form. Her dad had taught her well but she wouldn't be fighting today. Her only job today would be to protect her son. "I was out visiting a friend when the sirens sounded. I got here as fast as I could." Wesley started to cry in her arms, his pale cheeks turning red. She cooed him and bounced him, trying to calm him down but the sirens that were still going off weren't helping. His hearing was a bit sensitive after all. "Well either go to my o

Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans
"Answer my question and I would more than love to continue." I find myself nodding frantically and his chuckle echoes in his body. "Use your words." I find myself blushing again but I say nothing. He pulls a breath away from me. When I continue to say nothing he leans back down, briefly brushing his lips over mine with no pressure behind it. His hand on the base of my neck moves up slightly, tilting my head back to his side so my neck is to him. His fingertips brushing over my skin sends a large wave of tingles through me and I can't suppress the shudder that leaves me. He brushes his nose against my neck and I tighten my fisted hand to a point of pain. His hand on my waist quickly goes to my fisted knuckles and smooths them out onto his chest once again. "Can you feel how fast my heart beats for you, Celeste?" It is much faster now. "It's because it belongs to you. All of me? Belongs to you."
~
Finding herself suddenly alone and injured, Celeste finds herself on the grounds of one of the largest packs in the country. Scared of what will become of herself, she never expected to meet her mate and she definitely didn’t expect him to be the Alpha of the pack.
Xavier always longed to meet his mate, longed to complete his family. And when she, a rogue and a runt, ends up on his pack lands, he vows to protect and love her.
Only how can he protect her when mysteriously scentless rogues are attacking more packs every day? When an old enemy of Celeste’s makes an appearance in plain sight? When every sign of danger seems to be pointed in Celeste’s direction?

Chapter: Chapter 70: Upset (18+)Celeste's POVI bite my lip, shifting my balance from one foot to the other as I stare at the door of Xavier's office. He's been locked away in there all day. I had upset him, I know. I shouldn't have snapped at him. I was just. . . upset. I sigh, turning my back to the door. I can wait for dinner.The door opens behind me, an arm wrapping around my waist and pulling me back towards his comforting hold. I relax on instinct, his scent surrounding me in a calming wave. His other hand wraps around my hips, pulling me flush to him. His head rests on mine and together we stand, simply feeling the touch of the other."Where are you going?" His voice is a mumble against my hair."Nowhere," I lie. He knows it's a lie, no way he doesn't."You were just going to torture me by standing outside my office for fifteen minutes, just to leave?" Has it really been that long? I must have been far too in my head. "You torture me, baby." He steps back, pulling me with him into his office and closing the

Chapter: Chapter 69: Nasty ThingsLycer's POV"Malum was a healer once, thinks he's a scientist now. Those rogues you've been dealing with? All of them have been genetically modified in one way or another through their blood. I call them the experiments."All those of position in the pack surround me, all men - typical. Rarely have I crossed packs with women or gender-non-conforming wolves in positions. There's a pack on the west coast that's a feminine community. I've never seen a pack so organized and peaceful, though they did tell me they sometimes get threats from low lifes of other packs. They were always happy to put others in their place when necessary."How do you know him?" The question comes from the brooding one, Jacob. Always seems to have a frown on his face, except when it comes to the smaller long haired boy beside him. I know a man in love when I see one and Jacob is more than fallen."Met him in a bar once, drunk as shit. Crossed him several times over the years while he was still close to sane.""At

Chapter: Chapter 68: HeavyCeleste's POVI huffed, staring at the ingredients laying in front of me on the counter with an almost blank expression, save for the slight twitch that had formed in my brow. I couldn't grab half of the ingredients on my own. I had discovered trying to lift my good arm too far brought a slight stretch to my other shoulder which in turn gave me stabbing pains. Tears spring to my eyes and I wipe at them furiously.Cautiously, I lift my hand to grab the cutting board. It feels heavy in my hand and I quickly set it down on the counter. I move to cut the pre-washed vegetables. Hannah insisted on washing them for me even when I told her it wasn't necessary. Told her I could manage. Now, even holding a carrot steady against the board brings an ache to my shoulder. I push through, beginning to cut at a much slower pace than I'm used to. The carrot moves around the board slightly. I huff again, tightening my hold. A jolt goes through my arm and I hiss, letting it go. Taking several deep breat

Chapter: Chapter 67: GreyAll he could see was grey. It was confusing. He could have sworn there was once color but his memory was. . . faded. Tucked away, somewhere in his mind. He could feel it. Almost see it. Not quite; like when you think you see something move in the corner of your eye but when you glanced directly at it, it was gone. He could hear it sometimes. It came in the form of a woman's laugh. A humming of a song he knew deep in his soul yet couldn't utter a word of. The whispered murmurs of lovers embraced. Yet when he searched his mind for where these came from, there was nothing. No memory or even thought on it besides 'where' and 'what.' Even that would pass by.The where didn't often bother him. He knew he was somewhere cold and the walls were made of stone. Sometimes he would press his hand to the uneven walls, as if that would give him answers. Oftentimes, when he lifted his hand, he couldn't remember what he was doing in the first place. Wherever he was was a maze. A series of tunnels that

Chapter: Chapter 66: A Feeling of LoveThird Person POV"Born 7 pounds, 6 ounces, we welcome Wesley Vedette into this world. To be guided by the Goddess and those around him, we bless him by knowing him." The whole family crowds the medical office, surrounding the new mother and her baby who rested quietly on her chest. He was pink and small with the softest tuft of blond hair."Lesa, he's precious," Celeste coos, swaying in the arms of her mate. Their thoughts laid much in the same; how nice it'll be when their children come. What their baby will look like. Darker hair, definitely, but who's eyes would they get? Wesley's eyes were a deep blue, like his fathers. Lesa didn't dwell on it, like many in the room were worried she might. Instead, she remembered when she first met Christopher. When all was good, at least as far as she knew. She remembered that childlike joy at finding her mate. How curious, that a rogue who found his extended family here after years on his own, would be her future."He's perfect," she whispered ba

Chapter: Chapter 65: Much Better WhenCeleste's POVSparks danced through my entire form, my skin bare against Xavier. My back to his chest, his arm thrown over my middle, our legs tangled together. I hum, fully content to lay here in his hold forever. But I'm sweaty and despite Xavier trying to clean me up as best as he could last night, me too worn out to even move, I still feel sticky down there. I try to ignore it but I can't. Prying Xavier's arm from me proves to be a harder task than I thought. "Xavier," I whine. "Let me go."He grumbles, stirring behind me. I feel his member harden against my ass and I gasp. He chuckles, pulling me even closer. "And just where do you think you're going?""I need to shower." I huff, pushing at his arm enough that I can turn and look at him. My shoulder stretches and I grimace. It's started hurting less and less but it still feels like a moderate amount of pressure I wouldn't have previously noticed."Are you okay?" He trails his hand up my side, laying it on my shoulder and tracing
