Once I woke up, Nix wasn’t on my side. He must’ve gone to patrol the pack borders or help Alpha Kalil. Since I reek of Nix’s scent, although his smell is quite comforting, I still need to go to the bathroom and take a shower before going downstairs. I went to find Ruby but she was on duty while Tiffany is nowhere to be found, she must be shopping right now.After a while, I decided to look for something to eat in the dining hall. And there I saw some of the painted wolves. I was about to sense their inner emotions out of habit but decided to withdraw my senses from touching their minds or else, they might take it as a provocative action. Talking to them might be the easiest and only way to understand them.One of the painted wolves I can name is Mua; she is currently busy grabbing food. “Hi,” I said, approaching a little closer. “Mua, right?”Mua gave me a quick glance before returning to her silver tray. “Aye. Good day to you,” she replied.“Thank you. Good day to you as well. I am E
Chase Chapter 61 | Jackal
Nix’s POVAlpha Kalil sent a messenger to Alpha Trevor and Beta Mike, requesting for reinforcements. We have sent fighters on every side of our pack borders. There are fighters guarding the town and the safe houses. Ruby was designated to guard the town but I had to mindlink her to guard the first safe house to ensure that Etheral stayed inside. Ruby was kind enough to obey my order since I already sent a fighter to replace her spot.“Etheral?” I mindlinked her since I can feel her apprehension flowing through the mate bond. “How are you?”“Ruby is with me right now; some pack members will be sleeping in their own house as it is close to the safe house. Majority are cramping here on the first safe house. The other safe houses are fully occupied as well.”I heaved out a relieved sigh. “And you? Are you safe?”“Nix, I am. I am going to send you an image of Ruby.” Etheral sent an image of Ruby’s cold and stone face. “I am safe.”“Good. These feral wolves aren’t coming out yet. It’s getti

Nix mindlinked me that the ambush of feral wolves failed. They weren’t able to infiltrate the pack borders because painted wolves have killed the feral wolves before they got close. He also told me that one painted wolf was injured but his wound quickly healed on its own since it’s just a wolf scratch.Later on, Evan announced over the pack wide mindlink that we can go back to the town and respective houses as they have confirmed that we are safe. After a while, Luna Mary has called all the cooks to go back to the kitchen and prepare for the welcome feast and victory celebration.Nix told me that I must go back to our room and wait for him. He emphasized that I shouldn’t stray or leave the room unless I am with him. But I am also a cook, I have a duty to fulfill. So, I followed the cooks to the large kitchen and helped them.“I am glad that we were able to survive this night,” Sylvia said out loud so the other cooks would hear it while grabbing the clean plates out of the cabinet. Eve

Eventually, Luna Mary told us that the banquet is ready and we should head to the dining hall and continue the conversation with the other pack and tribe members.Nix and I walked behind them when Nix suddenly mindlinked me. “How about we skip the celebration and dine inside our room instead? I am certain that you won’t like the noise and strong smell of beer.”I had to give him a skeptical look. “And why would we skip this? They will be leaving early tomorrow. And I will never miss this chance to witness the painted wolves celebrate with our pack.” I raised a brow at him. “Besides, who said that I will hate the noise and smell of beer? You are out of excuses, aren’t you?”Nix grinned and shook in disbelief. “Alright, you win.”That made me smirk and then give him a quick kiss on the cheek. “Don’t frown, love, it’s a jovial celebration.”***We enjoyed the stories and how open the painted wolves have become. Two of them are in their wolf form since they have just arrived here and not

5 years later.“Nix… Nix! NIX!” I hollered his name, trying to wake him up. “I can’t find Garox and Etheal in their room...”Nix faced the other side of the bed and groaned. “Love… it’s the middle of the night.”I scoffed. “Did you hear me? Garox and Etheal are gone!”Even if I yell close to his ears, he wouldn’t wake up so I had to pinch his nose. Seconds later, he felt like drowning in his dream and had to jump awake at me. We hit each other’s forehead and Nix quickly apologize and kiss the spot where it got hurt.“I am fine, Nix, but the kids are not in their room. I knew I heard something come out the door so I had to check them. When I got there, I saw pillows arranged to guise their absence.”Nix groaned because he is still half-awake and gave me squishy hug. He stood and yawned, stretching his body before he says, “Come on.” He then extended his hand to reach mine. “Let’s look for those two.”We started looking for Garox and Etheal inside the house until we decided to go out an
Chase Chapter 65 | Jittery
Nix and I tried to smell the air once more; testing if there was an odd scent closing to us. But then the scent was gone. I mindlinked Nix and he said that maybe it’s nothing. I believed him and was about to take a seat with our kids around the table until we heard a sudden knock. It was a heavy one knock like throwing a stone onto the door.“Mom? Dad?” Garox called over our mindlink. “Someone’s at the door…”Etheal blinked, puzzled by our reaction. “Should I open it?” Etheal asked, unaware that we couldn’t smell that person knocking.“No, don’t…” Nix warned.As I slowly stood up, Nix held my hand. Nix mindlinked me privately that he’ll open it with me. I smiled and nodded. Nix and I walked carefully towards the door and once we reached the knob, we slightly opened it and crane our necks to see who it was.The person who knocked furrowed her brows at us and crossed her arms in annoyance.“Mua!?” I exclaimed. “Goodness, welcome back!”Nix let out a chuckle, relieved to know that the od
Chase Chapter 66 | Jaded
Nix and I have been keeping an eye on the kids while we are traveling. They are inside a basket so they won’t have to run along in their wolf forms. Nix was the one who carried Garox in the other basket while Mua offered to carry Etheal. Etheal was scared of Mua but overcame her doubt when Mua handled her with care.As a previous rogue and Omega, all of my passive senses were open and sharp. With painted wolves running with us, I doubt that any wild animal or wolf would come closer. I looked to my right and felt Alpha Kalil’s overpowering aura. Even if you are meters away from him, you would instantly back off and avoid confronting him. The Betas and fighters stayed in our pack with reinforcements from Alpha Trevor and Beta Mike in case an ambush would erupt.Nix has been having those darkened eyes from time to time whenever he senses something dubious from afar or a rustling sound within the forest. It’s always like this whenever we travel. And I am starting to regret taking the kids
Chase Prologue | Commence
Her hair lies on the muddy ground, soaked and somber. Blood crawling towards the water, blending with it. I scanned the faces of the fallen fighters but my eyes landed on the unfamiliar wolf. His neck was slashed open and his leg was pulled off of his body. I walked closer to it and saw how black their eyes are even when they are dead. I assume that even in their dreams and in the afterlife, these feral wolves are still savages.“We should get going, Runt.”I was surprised as I didn’t sense the man who called me. I quickly stood and stepped away from the dead feral wolf.“Don’t call her that.”I lifted my eyes but my head is still lowered and humbled. I gazed upon the two men bickering until the one who called me ‘Runt’ threw his hands and walked away. But he left me a glance. A glance that says how much he dislikes my presence. Although this group of wolves, group of rogues to be exact, isn’t a pack.
