Sorry for the long wait but it has been a crazy month. I will be posting more regularly. Follow me on I*N*S*T*A*G*R*A*M for updates. I will try and post another chapter later today.
Raven Reign is flying through the forest, if Alpha Max thought catching us will be easy, judging by his relaxed demeanour just now he does, he should learn not to underestimate me. Reign pushes forward running in a zigzag. She is careful not to run in a pattern….. “Shit, Reign No! We can’t lose an Alpha and sneak up on him. He might have been nice to us, but he could easily kill us if we try anything funny” I try to reason with her. “In the word of the wise Alpha Max, RELAX. He won’t expect us to be so bold. And you like him, right? Do you think he will return your feelings if you make it easy?” she responds confidently. She has a point, women clearly fall at his feet, maybe he should learn that not all women will bow down just because he is an Alpha, and surely, he will smell that it is us before he delivers the final blow. “We should find water, it will help mask our scent. The winds blowing from the front so if we want to sneak up we will need to do it from behind.” I say as Re
MAX I watch as Raven leaves with Hailey. Hailey seems to like her, which is both shocking and pleasing since Hailey never likes any of the women I associate with. I waited until they were inside Hailey and Sam’s cottage before I walk out into sight. “Alpha, finally you’re here. Everything is set up and” Sam my uncle and Beta say. “Thank you Sam, I will go freshen up and be right back. You can call the pack and tell them to come in 30 minutes.” “Yes, Alpha,” Sam responds, always the loyal soldier. “Sam, please, when it’s just us, call me Max. We are family after all” “No can do Alpha, I called your father Alpha all my life and I will do the same for you.” “Disobeying my commands already?” I reply with a snort. “Nice try, but your old man also tried that, you are my Alpha and that is what I will call you. No, go get cleaned up so that we can start, I think the pack needs some words of comfort from their Alpha.” Sam responded with a solemn smile. “Yeah, I don’t know if I can give
RAVENI am chatting with Hailey and her mate, Beta Sam when I felt his eyes on me sending shivers down my spine. I resist the urge to look at him, not wanting to trip Hailey off. By some miracle, she didn’t smell Alpha Max on me earlier or maybe she did but didn’t say anything. I wonder why she would choose not to say anything. She made her distaste clear for all the she-wolves that Alpha Max takes to bed. “There you are Snow” the familiar voice of my childhood friend, Colton, rings.“I was looking for you before the bonfire started, wanted to check in and see how you were doing. You were good out there today, couldn’t even tell it was your first day.” Colton says clapping me on the back like one of his bros.“Thanks, but it’s not like I can mess up on the first day. You are bending the rules for me after all.” I respond.“Yeah, but still, it’s not we eased you into it, but if anyone can keep up it’s you,” Colton says gripping my shoulder“Who is keeping up?” his deep voice comes fr
Max “That wasn’t what it looked like.” She spins around, her face is emotionless, but her eyes have a hint of hurt in them. “What was?” she asked “In my office. That wasn’t…. what I mean is I wasn’t…” I stutter to get the words out. How can I explain this to her. I know how it looked. I just can’t find the right word to explain. She plasters a fake smile on her face and gives a little laugh. “Oh, that. Don’t worry about it. I have been around Alphas all my life. I know how you all are.” she cuts me off. Her body language is nonchalant, but thoughts blue eyes still have that hint of hurt in them. Shit. I don’t know what to say, how to respond. “Well, if that’s all. I need to catch up to the squad.” Before she could spin around again, I reach out and pull her to me, sparks running like a current through me. Starting at my hands where I touched her and running up my arms and through my body. Our eyes meet and like always when I look at them, I’m enchanted. Everything else falls aw
I haven’t seen or heard from Max since our intense little stare-down. I’m starting to think he is avoiding me. Damn I sound pathetic. But I can’t help it. I have to actively stop my mind from thinking of him. I don’t know what happened. He is giving me whiplash with his hot cold behaviour.I’m so deep in my own thought I forget that I’m busy sparring with Ryker and he takes full advantage of my lack of focus. I hit the ground...hard. I look up to a disapproving scowl.“Never lose focus, whether it is training or a battle. You're done for the day.” He says before he turns to observe the rest of the squad.Shit, I have to stop thinking about Max. I have worked to hard to get where I am for some guy to distract me. My mind is fully on board but why does the idea of never talking, seeing or spending time him, make me sad? Ok my little crush is turning into an obsession, and it has to stop.I get up and head to the showers. On my way I see Max walk out of the gym, looking as if he just fin
Fuck, this has to be the dumbest, none thought out thing I have ever done. Colton told me Raven is like a sister to him and warned me off. I know I should have backed off the moment he told me that. But I just can’t let her go, I know I have to focus on the pack and must sister, we all need to heal. But Raven brings light to all the darkness around me and I can’t let her go, I don’t want to.Maddox was so pissed off that Colton had the nerve to warn us away from her, I had to push him to the back of my mind to stop him from attacking one of my best friends. I think Maddox and I are on the same page when it comes to raven now, she is not just a fleeting thing, but she the anker that keeps my world from spinning in chaos.Keeping away from her for days was agony. I am not doing that again. I was miserable, on edge and angry and she was distracted, which was not a good thing seeing as we can get attached at any moment. I have come to the conclusion that we need each other. But she might
Raven The alarm goes off at 05:15 but I don't need it, I have not slept at all last night. Why might you ask? I was and still am too nervous to sleep. Or maybe I am excited. Or am I both? Yes, I am most definitely both. “You know, sometimes I wonder what I have done to be pair with a chronic overthinking human” grumbles a sleepy voice in my head. “You know, sometimes I wonder what I have done to be pair with an careless, unsympathetic and rash wolf” I reply to Reign. “You know you just described almost all wolves, right?” Reign replied. I roll my eyes at her, and she just laughs at me. I know she’s right, I need to get a hold of myself. I am a 22-year-old shifter and got my wolf, Reign, when I turned 18. She is the best thing about being a shifter, the best part of being me. Your wolf is an extension of yourself only you have to multiply it by 10. For example, I used to bold and feisty, but when I got Reign, I became bolder and feistier. And I don’t easily back down from a challe
Raven I walk through my room towards the bathroom and released that my room reflects a lot about me, no frills, no clutter, neat and simple. My mother describes it as modern industrial chic. I have a big bed in the middle of my room with an array of grey sheets and pillows. I don't have bedside tables but two big grey lamps. A few green plants are spread out in the room, nothing that requires too much attention, or it will die. I have a few mirrors and frames (no pictures) just the frames are hanging on the four walls. My favourite place is my reading nook. I have a huge ceiling-to-floor bookshelf and one comfy grey reading chair. As I switch on the bathroom light, to see what the damage is from the sleepless night. Instead of being greeted with my usual bright ocean-blue eyes, I’m greeted with tired dull eyes, who are accompanied by dark circles just below them. My fair skin only makes the bags under my eye my eyes look worse. I used to hate my light skin, all the shifters I know ha
