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 52: Traitor
Lycer's POVMy eyes were red, I could feel it. The first day or so I cried. At this point, I'm worried she's dead. I don't know how long it's been now. Several days? A week? I don't know.I don't even understand what happened. One minute, Christopher and Malum were here. It was the usual and I wanted it to end. Then, she was convulsing and practically foaming at the mouth. I could feel my heart in my throat as I yelled for answers that never came. Malum yelled at Christopher, or at least his voice felt loud to my ears. Then Christopher was gone and Celestial was in Malum's arms. I felt my throat go raw at my many attempts to ask what was happening. Then she was gone.I tried to remember reading that book in my father's office as a kid. I tried to remember if I would be able to tell if she died. If our bond would snap at all.The door creaks open. I throw myself to the bars, ready to scream at whoever came in. But in comes Ian, looking terrible. His right eye is bruised and swollen. A
Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans Chapter 51: Used To
Celeste's POVPain.Pain pulsed through my entire body; it filled my veins like blood."Xavier?" I croaked. My first thought always reaches for him. Even in my moments of low awareness, I want for him.I haven't heard Ancillary since they took me from the pack but I can feel her longing for him too. For my mate. It fills me almost as much as the pain.No one responds.My vision is blurred, something I'd grown used to. This time it felt different. Like a mist covering my eyes but not touching my skin. I blink several times, waiting for the dizziness that usually accompanies the action. It doesn't come. I hesitate before bringing a hand up to wipe at my eyes. The movement is sluggish; and my arm stings but it doesn't feel heavy. I'd grown used to the heaviness of my own body, I realize. An ache does form, greater than I've felt in awhile. It stretches across the muscles of my arm, accompanying the sting from my healing injury. My eyes hurt as I drag a fist over the lids but my vision cle
Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans Chapter 50: Ludicrous
Third Person POVThe wolf named Christopher paced. He was getting antsy. His current line of actions felt repetitive and performative. Performative for an applause he would never receive. Of course, Christopher didn't want applause. He wanted his mate and his child back with him; his child, he realized, more than his mate. After months without her, he wasn't sure if he ever really loved her or merely the power her position in the pack allowed him. He still felt vast promise in his child. To love or to merely raise in his image, he wasn't quite sure. More so than a reflection of past love, he felt hatred. Hatred for a woman who so easily rejected him. Hatred for her brother, the Alpha of the Paramount Pack who was ready to kill him on words of a bitch. Hatred for that bitch who he ultimately felt ruined the life he had so carefully crafted for himself.When he asked Malum when he intended to retrieve his mate, having now retrieved the girl with the information he gave, the man's respon
Celestial Bodies: of Runts and Lycans Chapter 49: State
Xavier's POVThe air feels too light for my current mood. A light cold wind whips around me, blowing the edges of my shirt up whenever I move my arms from my side. I'm at the clearing where I last spent time with Celeste. I needed. . . I wanted. . .I don't know.The water sounds harsher today despite the lighter flow of water, breaking into the small layer of ice that's trying to form on the small body of water. It won't fully freeze until the water stops flowing from the mountains, maybe in a few weeks. Then it'll be frozen all winter. Technically it's not even winter yet but the nip in the air says otherwise.There's movement in the trees below and I squint my eyes, my shoulders taking on a tightness I don't feel they can handle with all my current stress. If it's a rogue, I'll beat them within an inch of their life for coming back onto my land. For coming here.My feet are moving before I can even fully process that I've started walking. I move fast but carefully down the ledges l
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 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 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
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
