Little Wolf… Athena… The mantra I keep repeating to myself as I continue to fight off the wolves who used to be my comrades, my family. I hit the wolf in front of me with all my might, as I aim for his throat sending him back. I look around and I can see that the rest of the Alphas are getting tired as well. It would have been fine even if we are in our human form as long as our wolves are present. But until now I can’t feel Levi and without him, healing is never an option. ‘We have put down a lot of them but why does it feel like there are still hundreds on them?’ Justine complains. ‘Drake,’ Keith called out through the mind link, ‘I don’t know how much longer we can last.’ Just then we heard a loud crash, we all turned towards the direction of the noise and saw Nori lying in the crates. ‘Nori!’ I called out through the mind link, ‘Answer me, Nori! Damn it!’ I was about to head to where Nori was but Calvin was already there. Helping me out. ‘I’m fine,’ Nori replied. ‘Lana
I have never seen something so enchantingly amazing until I watch all the Alphas below shift into their wolf forms. That’s when I realize who Drake really was to this pack and to this alliance. Surrounded by different Alphas, Drake and Levi were on another level. Their size is bigger than the rest of the Alpha, and I know that it was because they consider him their leader. They stood in the middle up front while the rest are all lined up behind him. Nori bowed before Lana asked her to ride his back, which she did without hesitation. I watch how in sync Lana and Nori’s movements were. Like they knew exactly what each other needs and it’s not only that. They also know how to protect each other. It makes me wonder if Drake and I would be like them if we fought together. One by one we watch each of the rebels fall down, the blonde guy running and hiding behind the rest of the weak wolves. But I saw how Drake tramples over them as he continues to pursue his target. “I would have neve
Human relationships are like a wine glass, fragile and easy to break. I felt how hurt Drake got after being betrayed by someone he treated as family. I just hope that after all of this he would still be able to trust other people. I fear that because of everything that had happened. With the countless lies and betrayals that he had experienced, he would begin to doubt everyone and close his doors to those who need them. After what had happened at the alliance meeting Drake began spending more and more time away from the packhouse. I heard from Nori that he was now checking all the contracts that he had made with other packs, starting with those that had betrayed him. Leon took over the responsibility of being our chaperone whenever we meet Lana as I find Drake becoming more busy or distant. To be honest I am not sure how to react to our situation. I guess I understand what he was going through, and as long as Nori tells me that he was still eating his meal and not being an ass I
I woke to the sound of falling water falling. I sat up and waited for the person in the shower to show himself. After a few minutes, Drake walks out of the room, with a towel wrapped around his waist and another towel in his hand as he dries his hair. He stopped and gave me a small smile when he saw me looking at him. “Did I wake you up baby?” He asked as he took a seat at the edge of the bed. I reach for his hand and let my index finger trace every inch of his hand. “Are you avoiding me?” I asked softly without looking into his eyes as I continue to play with his hand. “Wait, what?” he asked, “Hell no, baby,” he answered. “Then why are you not coming home?” I asked, this time I was looking at him. Pain. Anger. Betrayed. These are the emotions that I saw in his eyes. He withdraw his hand from my grip and stood up. Aloofness. Distance. As I feel these new emotions a part of my heart was pierced with pain. “There are a lot of things that I need to take care of,” he said with
‘What the hell is wrong with you?’ Levi asked angrily as I pulled away from the driveway. Honestly, I am not really sure what is really happening. God knows how much I love Athena, and I would never hurt her intentionally and I would never leave her alone crying. I know that something is wrong with me. Something has been wrong since the day with Arthur. ‘You rarely come home and when you finally did, you have to say those hurtful words to Athena. In case you forgot, let me remind you that Athena is My Luna,’ Levi said angrily. ‘She is mine,’ I shouted possessively back at him. ‘Well, you don’t really act that way back there,’ Levi said, not backing down. I admit now, that something is definitely wrong. Calvin has already noticed the change in me since after the battle. He had tried several times to make me ask Lana to check me up but I always end up getting angry at him. At first, he would just let me do what I wanted to do. Like, staying in the office instead of going home wit
Damn it, Lana! I cursed in my head as I gain consciousness. I sat up and look around but was surprised to find myself in a different location. Where the hell am I? “Hello there, it’s been a while,” the voice sounded familiar, so familiar to be exact. I turned and met my mother’s eyes. “Mom,” I said as several emotions rush into me all at the same time. “How are you son?” She asked as she started to walk towards me. I was too stunned to move. Too stunned to even speak. “First of all,” my mom said as she touched my face, “I’m sorry.” Of all the things that she can tell me now, that was the last thing that I ever wanted to hear. Of all the things that she did I count more things that I hated than appreciate. I brush my mom’s hand away from my face and took a deep breath as I control all the emotions that were threatening to explode. “Son,” my mom said. “I thought you were different mom!” I said shouting. I closed my eyes as I try to control all the emotions that I was feeli
‘At this rate, we would all die,’ Leia said, as I continue panting. I was out of shape. It’s been months since the last time I had any physical training. ‘Then make sure that we won’t,’ I said to Leia. ‘That’s a quite a demanding request isn’t it?’ Leia responded. ‘Does it seem like you have a choice?’ I asked her as I bit the head off of the wolf in front of me, ‘Remember, if I die, you die.’Death is something that I am not prepared to face right now and I can feel that Leia also feels the same. I still have so many plans and things that I wanted to do. At the same time, I don’t want Little Wolf to grow without me. I am not saying that Aunt Jess did a bad job raising me because that’s just not true. I guess what I was trying to say is there are times and things that I wish I could do or talk about with my mom. “I feel helpless Athena,” Nicolo shouted. I know how he feels but I don’t want him to feel that way. I don’t blame him and I would never let him fight when he is at a disa
I lost… I don’t know what happened or how it happened. But here I am in a fetal position as I protect my tummy because of Little Wolf. Nori was lying lifeless once again just a few feet away from me. He did all that he could to protect me and try to put down Sam on his own. But because of his wounds and the countless rogue wolves that have made it impossible not only for him but for me as well. “Why do you keep resisting?” Sam asked as he stood over me in human form. “I am not resisting anything,” I told him, “You are the one who is insisting on something that doesn’t exist.” ‘I don’t really care if you feel the same way or not,” Sam said arrogantly, “What matters to me is that you are mine.” “I will never be yours, Sam,” I don’t care if I receive more anger from him. Because, I will never, ever tell him something that isn’t true. I will never give him the satisfaction of hearing the words that he wanted to hear. “What is it about that stupid Drake that you love?” Sam asked, “
