Celeste's POV

I gulped, slamming the book shut. For a moment, I was silent. Then, a squeal left me as I dropped the book to the floor. Josh walked over, closing his own book and simultaneously sipping from his cup of hot chocolate. His eyes fell to the book not far from me. "I didn't like that one."

My eyes widened, darting up to

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 56.2: Leroy

    Lycer's POVThe house brings in an instant sense of warmth and I find myself letting out a breath I didn't know I was holding."Good god," I heard mumbled from behind us. The hunched man circled us, his eyes on Celestial. I pushed her further behind me. "She needs help." Just as he said it, Celestial leans her full weight on me. I'm quick to turn and grab her. "You two best not be bringin' trouble, you hear?" My mouth opens but he's quick to drag a chair from his kitchen that's set up not ten feet away from the living room we entered into. "Set 'er here." I listen, helping Celestial to sit down on the chair.Celestial falls back into the backed wooden chair, sighing a breath of relief. Her eyes scan the warm room. The old beat up coach, wooden shelves filled with nicknacks but no pictures, the cozy looking reading chair. Her eyes didn't scan the kitchen that felt just as warm to me. Instead, her eyes found mine. "We're out," she whispers with a tone of disbelief."We're out." I squeez

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 56.1: Leroy

    Lycer's POVThe forest was cold and damp. It reminded me much of the cells I wasn't truly sure I had escaped.The wind swirled and nipped at us with its icy chill. I can tell it's going to snow soon.I'll need to find shelter.Celestial's hold on my fur switches between a harsh grip and a light grasp but she keeps steady on my back. I try to keep my pace even so as not to jostle her.I don't know where we are. The sky is a mask of grey and the trees are dead. Nothing. I know nothing but that I need to keep going.Twice, I catch myself speeding up for a moment with an intense fear of someone being right on my heels. Celestial doesn't say a thing. I was sure she would if she spotted someone following us.With night just shortly on our tail and the mountains a slowly shrinking image, I let us stop for just a moment."Lycer?" Her words are a whisper and I nudge my head back to show I hear her. "Are we free?" I look forward. Are we free?I keep walking.Night falls and no one has found us.

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 55: A Hideout Within the Hideout

    Third Person POV"Find them! Fucking find them and bring them back! Alive!"Malum paces through his office, his head beginning to hurt. The boy had shifted. The wolfsbane in his system was too low. He had timed things incorrectly and for that, Malum was furious. Now his only connection to the originals, to the Lycans, was gone. Off in the woods somewhere.They couldn't have gone far. The girl is injured. His experiments would find them.When night falls, they are still not found. Malum destroys several items in a training area he had designated for his experiments. Experiments flinch as they watch chairs and targets shatter to pieces.Malum had the body of the traitor burned, tempted to kick it until it unlikely sprang back to life just so he could beat the life out of it again. One of his high ranking experiments, Karlin, returned the first night. His irritation matched Malum's. Karlin supposedly never trusted Ian and was happy to execute the task of getting rid of the traitor, thoug

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 54: Under the Snow

    Xavier's POVJust under the snow, I catch her scent. Celeste was here.The house is cute. Like a little old woman would live here and bake pies, kind of cute. Right up against the side of the mountain, it's hidden cleverly away between a wide crevice. As was told to us, the door is knocked down. That's where Celeste's scent is most clear, under the scent of several rogues and snow. Before we enter, as we wait for everyone to gather, I trace the scent as far as I can. I get maybe fifty yards back into the woods before it fades into an indiscernible mass of nature and cold.'She's gone,' I link to Josh. 'They must have known we were coming. She's gone.''It could be a trick,' he tries to reassure. 'Let's investigate while we're here.' I huff, coming out of the tree lining and returning to the little house. 'Hey.' He nudges me. 'We'll find her.'My breath gets caught in my throat, my eyes blurry as I look away. She has to be here. She has to be.'Xavier.' My head snaps to Josh, snow begi

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   53.2: Intimidating Force

    Xavier's POVNoon doesn't come quick enough. My wolf howls and whines, telling me to leave ahead of the group and find Celeste as soon as possible. I was tempted but knew I would be outnumbered the minute I got close to the mountains. We've sent scouts to wander through the mountains, hoping to get a trace, but something tells me - if I go sniffing around, trying to find an entrance, they would be set off. No, it needs to be so many of us that they're overwhelmed. The guys were right with thirty not being enough. The minute we split up to try to find the entrance, they could have easily taken us down. The warriors waiting for me are already shifted when I reach the border. Josh and I stride together to the front of the group. "Thank you all for joining me. As everyone is aware, our Luna was taken from us several weeks ago." Growls fill the air. "This morning, she was able to link me. We now know that she is in the west mountains. We are going to retrieve her. We are relying on an in

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 53.1: Intimidating Force

    Xavier's POV'Xavier.' Her voice wakes me in the middle of the night, morning really. A brief glance at the clock tells me it's about four in the morning.'Celeste!' I reach for her through our link. I find myself doing this most mornings. It's never real. I put my head in my hands, rubbing my temples in circular motions. Just once, I want her to be there. Need her to be. 'Celeste,' I beg, 'please tell me you're there.' Nothing comes in response, of course.I shove myself out of the guest bed I'd been sleeping in. I suppose three hours of sleep is better than the no sleep I'd grown used to these past few weeks. I need a shower.'Xavier?' I stumble over the rug placed between the bed and the door.'Celeste!' There's a slight laugh in my voice, a momentary relief flooding me. Just hearing her voice. . . 'Baby, it's really you.' I need to tell Jared or Josh. Both of them need to know. But I can't, not right now. Right now, she's all mine.'Xavier,' she repeats. 'Is this real?' I can hear

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 7.1: The Three Js

    Celeste's POVI brushed my hair out as gently as I could. Xavier said he wants to introduce officially to those of ranking in his pack. He said technically I've already met them but that no one actually got to introduce themselves. I instantly knew he meant the three pack members who found me along

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 4.1: Mates

    Celeste's POVI stared at him in disbelief. "M-mates?" I don't know why I hadn't thought of it before. The way he phrased things, his comforting scent, the tingles I've never felt with anyone before. Looking back, I have always known about mates but I can't recall ever asking or being told about an

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 7.2: The Three Js

    Celeste's POV"So. ." I said, probably very awkwardly. I never really had to put forth any energy into socializing so I don't honestly know the best way to go about it. "Three J's," I point out. They give me confused looks, Josh's is easier to read than Jacob. "Josh," I point to him, "Jacob," I poi

  • Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans   Chapter 5.1: Don't Let Me Go

    Celeste's POVThe wind was whipping through my fur as I ran, the sun shining through the tree tops and bringing a physical warmth to accompany the happy warmth I was feeling internally. I looked to my left to see Mom running beside me. She gave me a toothy grin and looked over my shoulder, her eyes
