River was running away from the humans when she accidentally saved the Greatest Alpha Of All Times, Alpha Lukai. There's a fight between the humans and the wolves and in order to stay safe River has to secretly live amongst the wolf, because even her kind the humans smell her as a wolf and are hell-bent on killing her. In order to survive she has to live among the wolves but what happens when she's caught and brought before Alpha Lukai as one of the humans living among the wolves, the penalty is death by hanging. The humans want her dead, the wolves want her dead, if she's not a human or a wolf then who is River. Kneeling before the cold looking Alpha, she gazes into his ocean eyes wondering why it's so familiar, but as River stares deeper, she realizes her greatest fear is that she has fallen in love with the man fated to destroy her. In a world where wolves and humans do not see eye to eye, could the one she accidentally saved be the one destined to kill her?

“Run honey, don't look back!”
“Run!’’
My mother's voice echoed through my head as I run deeper into the woods without looking back, I could hear their footsteps as they chased me, I ran with all my strength, it was getting dark, the rain was pouring so hard, thunder was making rumbling sounds in the sky, lightning was striking continuously, the cloud was in chaos, as the rain continue to pour down heavily the wind blew like never before, the trees in the woods shook like an earthquake
I ran with all my strength I didn't mind if I was stepping on any sharp object, I didn't stop running,
“Ahhh…..!” I yelled as I suddenly fell into a hole, I looked around the whole place it was in the middle of the woods, I struggled to climb out of the deep whole but it was so fucking hard, I've exhausted almost all my strength how in the world do I get out from this place?
“Hmmmmm….!” I heard a growling sound wondering where it's coming from,
“Hmmmm…!” I continued to hear the sound, I was beginning to shrink in fear I needed to leave the damn hole, my mother risked her life to save me. I can't get stuck in a damn hole.
I began climbing the hole, I fell over and over again, but I wasn't giving up, I was determined to get out and finally I was able to climb out of the whole,
“I did it” I muttered to myself breathing so heavily,
“Hmmmmm!” I heard those growling again,
“What's that?” I asked myself as I proceeded to follow the sound, I was surprised when I suddenly saw three huge black wolves lying on the ground, two were severely injured and right now they looked dead, while the one awake was making the groaning sounds, their bodies were filled with cuts, and blood was all over them, the one awake was mysteriously staring at me
“Run River, you shouldn't be here, run!” I said to myself and began to take a step backwards, I turned and was about to run when that groaning sound came again
“Hmmmmm!” I turned and saw the wolf blinking at me,
“Ahh…ehh….I'm sorry I'm not from this park, I'm going to leave right away” I said nervously hoping he's hearing me, but then I saw as the wolf turned to look at the other two wolves lying down and for some reasons it feels like he's sad, and wanted my help
“Hey listen, I'm coming close to you to check out your wounds, so you better not bite me” I pointed at him, I began to take slow steps towards him, I was nervous, I take a step forward and take a step back making sure the wolf is not going to jump on me and eat me alive, but instead he sat there and all he did was stare at me with those eyes that held so many emotions, I finally got close to him, and slowly bent down to his level
I tried to touch him and suddenly withdrew my hands, he was covered in bruises
“Can I touch you?” I asked gently hoping he could hear me, I waited for his response, he was staring keenly at me, and when I thought he wasn't going to say anything he blinked twice,
“You're so stubborn, why did it take you so long to respond” I scoff and took off the scarf I used to tie my hair and my long blonde hair fell freely on my back. I began to wipe his wounds with the scarf,
“Wait here I'm coming” I said to him and searched around the woods for any medicinal leaves and finally I found one, I went back to him excitedly,
“Hey look, I found a leaf that can stop the bleeding and also subside the pain, I brought enough for you and your brothers!” I shouted in excitement but when he didn't make any sound and was only staring at me, my smile faded away and I walked back to him,
I began shrinking the leaves on my palm,
“Do you know you're not supposed to be sad, at least you're alive and still have your brothers, but for me, I have no one else” I said the last part sadly,
“Foolish me, I'm already crying just by thinking of it” I said, wiping my tears with the back of my palm. I finished shrinking the leaves and was ready to apply it on the wolf,
“Hey listen this is going to hurt, you have to bear it okay?” I said to him and like before all he did was stare at me, I took the leave and began to apply them on his wounds, but I was surprised when he didn't make any sound, he's damn strong cause this leave stings a lot, I made sure to apply it in all his wounds and when I was done, I tore a huge part of my dress into three parts and I used one to wrap around his wounds,
“Now you're okay, let me treat your brothers as well” I said to him and went forth to treat his brothers, I also wrapped them up.
I came back to him after treating the other two, I don't know if they are brothers or friends but seeing them in this situation I assumed that's what they are, I came back to him and squatted before him, I caress the hair on his body,
“How did you guys end up here? Were you chased like me?”
All he did was stare at me, is his eyes not hurting him from too much staring?
“I have to leave, but don't worry this leaf is strong, you and your brothers are going to be fine by morning, okay?”
“Look big Wolfie, even in a wolf form you look so handsome, can I get your name maybe someday we will meet?”
“Mmmm, since you can't talk maybe I'll tell you my name then” I said and placed my right hand on my chest,
“I'm River, I was just running away from a group of people when I fell into that hole” I pointed at the hole far away and he turned his heads toward the direction I pointed, my eyes widened in excitement as I realized that all these while he could hear me, I hurriedly stood up with smile plastered on my face,
“I have to leave now big Wolfie, I hope we meet again someday”
I quickly bent down and kissed his head,
“I wish you and your brothers quick recovery, I have to continue running” I smiled and turned my back as I t
ook to my heels
“Bye……..!” I yelled and finally ran into the woods
RiverI was super nervous and anxious even after I came back I didn't dare to tell anybody about my conversation with the Alpha, I do not want them to feel pressured and or indebted to me, I thought I was strong but seeing how my body was shaking I realized I was not as strong as I thought. I know that soon they are going to come to take me away, and just like I predicted, they came, it was a guard and a young lady standing outside, you can say she's almost my age or might be few years older than me, when they came to take me away my friends were all worried, cause they have been asking me what happened and i could not even say it I only told them that everything is well and the Alpha King just wanted to talk to me,So when the guards came to pick me up they were all worried. I came out from the prison and the lady gently smiled at me and held my hand, as we began to leave“What’s your name?”“My name?” I asked cause she's the first person that has ever cared to ask me my name since
RiverIt's been one week since we escaped death by hanging. We are still in the prison but this time things were a little bit different. They feed us and give us water daily, unlike back then when they starve us and constantly whip us like criminals.It's crazy how my life changed in a blink of an eye, a year ago I used to live with my parents who showered me with love and so much affection, until my father's sudden death the whole neighborhood turned against us saying we are family of wolves, except for my mother who is sure a human they said my father and I are wolves and deserve to die, The night they planned to raid our house and kill me, was the night my mother woke up from a bad dream and insisted on sneaking me out of the neighborhood and luckily I managed to escape but ever since then I haven't seen my mother again, rumors had it back then that they killed my father because of this same issue, and even though I don't know who I am, I'm forever going to hate those pretentious
River“Move!” The guards pushed us as we staggered in to wherever it is that they are taking us to, I was tired, drained and thirsty, for the past one month we have been locked up and starved we barely feed nor have water to drink, I can't remember the last time I took my bath, the chains on my leg and wrist has almost damaged my skin causing bruises and scarsThey kept on dragging us with the chains, the pain was unbearable but it was not just me, we were many. They called us Humans saying we are going to be punished for meddling with their kind, but we did nothing wrong, we were just trying to survive. A huge door opened and we were pushed inside, immediately everyone sighted the person sitting on the throne, they began crying and begging for mercy, I did not dare to look because of the stories I've heard about the Alpha King of the wolves, a brutal and cold Alpha with no heart, I do not dare to look at him.“Go down on your knees!” They forcefully pushed us to down, a kick landed
