Chapter 17 | Easy
I went closer to Nix’s side and held his hand with my two hands. Nix turned to look at me and smiled but he instantly looked at the Alpha.
"The mate bond seems quite strong already,” the Alpha chuckled, amused by Nix's reactions when the Alpha approached me. “Relax, Nix. I mean no harm."
Nix exhaled a deep sigh with a soft chuckle. "I know that in theory, but in practice, rationality simply does not enter the mind when it comes to the mate bond. I am sure you know that; I have seen you react in such a waspish manner."
Mary burst out laughing. "You should have seen Kalil when he first met me, and I have to admit that Nix… you are handling it much better than he did. The mate bond is much more intense for high-ranking wolves, and with your Enforcer rank, which is designed to protect others, the mate bond will hit you quite hard because your protective tendencies are already heightened.” Mary rubbed the Alpha’s back and smiled a

I chuckled as I dashed under a massive rose bush and continued on my way as fast as my four paws could go. Nix had to go around because of his massive wolf size. I thought it was quite amusing to choose the path that required him to take the most detours. At the very least, he was getting more exercise than if he was just running alongside me.Our leisurely run had devolved into a game of catch-me-if-you-can, and despite the fact that I hadn't stopped to hiding underneath the bushes, Nix hadn't been able to get close to me for nearly five minutes. Given that I had never been in this part of the forest before, it was a pretty impressive feat for me.But the situation was starting to irritate Nix; he could see me now but couldn't reach me. The mate bond pushed him to move faster and work harder to get to me.I used my senses to ensure that no other pack member was in our path. I didn't want anyone to come between Nix and me when the distance between us was already

After Nix and I had our morning run, we went to the dining hall to have our first meal. People who lived in their own homes frequently made and ate breakfast at home, so those who lived in the pack house or had been out patrolling were the only ones looking for breakfast. The dining hall was occupied with large tables and chairs, it was spacious, spacious enough to accommodate almost all of the pack members in this pack house. Breakfast and lunch were more of a self-serve situation. We were too late to help with the cooking, so we grabbed a plate and filled it before heading over to a table. Nix helped me with selecting the food, well, mostly he would just put anything on my plate as long as I get full. Is he planning on making me obese? Or do I look really thin?Nix and I would smile as we passed by other pack members, Nix would wrap one of his arms around my waist if a male is close to us. We took an empty table and began to savor everything on our plate. While I was eating

Tiffany held up a revealing black object for me to inspect, I can feel her excitement intensifying each time she found an item she deemed to look good on me. In disbelief, I looked at her and winced as I pick up the items she chose. "How on earth do you keep finding those things in stores that are supposed to be family-friendly?""This is exactly why they're called family stores," she said, smiling. "These lovely little objects help people increase the size of their family."My jaw dropped and I let out a surprised laugh. "I will never be able to look at half of these stores the same way again," I said, shaking my head."Oh, if you liked this type of clothing, I know several stores with a special display in the back," Tiffany replied.I shuddered lightly; I was beginning to think her mind went deeper into the gutter than mine. And she still hadn't found her mate and yet she acts like she has a mate, exposing her expertise in this type of habit. "Well, I f
Chase Chapter 21 | Family
Once we were done arranging Tiffany’s new clothes inside her huge closet, we decided to head out and shift into our wolf form. Tiffany led me out of the pack house and down some seldom-used forest paths. As we made our way to her promised destination where no one could interrupt us, I felt her slender frame move with excitement and her face glowing. I followed her with interest, waiting for her to tell me where we were going.She'd finally told me where we are right now and then asked if I had any suggestions for making us less visible. I can sense that she is worried that if I shift into my runt wolf form, someone might attack me and she won’t be able to protect me enough. Tiffany seems to be a good fighter; every pack member is at least trained to fight during their pup days. However, some stopped and relied on the basic skills taught in school. Tiffany seems to be that kind of wolf; she knows how to fight but is not that strong enough to fight or kill any wild

Tiffany led me to the kitchen, and I asked, "Can you possibly show me how this stove works? The ability to bake was the thing I missed the most when I became a rogue."Finally, I am in the kitchen but I am not aware of this new cooking apparatus. I have been dying to return back to my old duties as a cook. That had been the best perk of being an Omega; if you were cooking anything, people would leave you alone. And throughout my task, I would find myself experimenting with ingredients and making exotic yet edible food. I even discovered that I loved baking.Tiffany assisted me in locating the ingredients as I measured and combined everything in a bowl. We were soon seated on tall stools against the far wall, watching the cheesecakes bake in the oven. Tiffany had a lot of fun stories underneath her sleeves and she was willing to blurt them out unabashedly. While I, on the other hand, was busy laughing and baking the rest.“You should have seen him so furiou
Chase Chapter 23 | Fellow
After we finished hanging out in the kitchen, we went out to the backyard after supper, where several people were already preparing for my acceptance ceremony. The Beta was standing on a small raised platform, a sharp dagger on a small table, it’s wrapped with black cloth. Nix's gaze was fixed on the weapon, which made me worry because his protective instincts is starting to kick in.I held his hand with both my hands. "Please promise me that you won't turn my acceptance ceremony into a bloodbath. I have done this before, and, truth be told, I have gotten worse scratches from rose bushes.” I chuckled and he wasn’t happy with that. I sighed, “Most Alphas barely break the skin, and I am sure Kalil won't do anything that would hurt me." I nudged him, “Don’t worry, alright?”Nix sighed and shifted his gaze away from the small blade. "I know; I've seen it done dozens of times before, but the mate bond is convinced that any injury wo

I awoke to find myself in the same situation I had been in the day before. For a while, I just enjoyed the sensation of all the sparks erupting around me. Others in the house began to stir and get up at some point, sensing their presence moving around the pack house.I focused my attention on Nix, I want to lick his hair again but nope, not again. I tried to break free, but he simply drew me closer to his chest, as he had done before. It was time to bring out the big guns. Or, at the very least, the biggest guns I had in this form against my mate."Nix, Nix, Nix, wake up,” I called him via mindlink.In his sleep, he groaned and buried his face in my fur. My intuition told me that he was still not awake. "Nix," I said over the mindlink again, "come on, the cooks have already started the pancakes." There was still no response and I need to help with the kitchen duties.I grinned as a memory flashed to my head. In that memory, there are two people smil
Chase Chapter 25 | Ferocious
I couldn't tell you how long I sat there watching Nix train them and fight with the other fighters. They never saw me, despite the fact that I wasn't hiding. Nix kept glancing towards the forest to the east as if he was getting worked up. Something or someone must’ve been lingering in the east direction. I took a deep breath but didn't detect any strange odors. My senses didn't pick up on anything in that part of the forest either, despite the fact that my range wasn't all that great.Nix took a break and walked to the field's edge, looking towards the forest. Even from this distance, I could sense growing anxiety and tension.His voice entered my mind, and his calm words contradicted what I could sense from my seat. "How are things going?"I smiled as I realized he had no idea I had been within earshot the whole time. "Pretty good," I remarked. "I got a lot of mushrooms, and the bag Tiffany lent me is almost empty.""Are you going back?""No
