WillowMy head feels foggy and my mouth tastes like I’ve been sucking on a cotton ball all night. It’s dry and nasty. I groan and inhale deeply through my nose, taking in the amazing scent that I now instantly recognise as belonging to Zale.That’s when it all comes back to me. Going outside to say goodbye to Finn, they two men out for a night walk, dressed in black, getting shot twice with tranquiliser darts and that image of Zale in his wolf form leaping over me right before I passed out.“Are you awake?” Zales voice whispers in my ear and I get a delicious set of shivers that run down my spine. His voice is going to be the death of me I swear.“Not really.” I mumble and turn towards him with my eyes still closed. My stomach muscles hurt a little with the move, but I don’t care, I just want to wrap myself around him and breath in his delicious scent. I burry into his chest with my face and hear him sigh as one of his hands runs up and down my back. I lift a leg up over his hip and ke
“Hmm, I don’t think you should believe it’s a coincidence either. I don’t. So, she called you for help, then what?” I can hear his feet slapping the floor and I know he is pacing somewhere in the first station; he hasn’t turned his camera on for me to see exactly where he is and is keeping his voice low so I’m guessing that this late at night, most of his team in the station are sleeping.“I dropped my phone. Shifted, and ran like hell to get to her. I called for reinforcements for all available wolves in the compound. We all ran to where Willow was. When I arrived, she was about to pass out from the tranquiliser. Luna Seraphina and Solomon where fighting with two of the attackers. Finn had a third on his knees with a gun aimed at him. Which also means Finn is now being brought into the fold. I took a guard position over her. Anders and Solomon took after the two that ran away.”I pause at that point. I hope my short sentences have been enough for the moment as struggle with reliving t
[“You can come in. Just you.”] I take a deep breath and walk to the bedroom door, glancing back to make sure Wills is still asleep and still safe. I don’t like not having her in my sight my wolf bristles every time that I turn my head. It takes a few seconds before I hear Sandy’s soft footfalls, and I open the door a slither to peer out and make sure she’s alone. I don’t know why I’m checking that when I trust her, but I can’t seem to help myself at the moment.“I see you Zale, I have to go back for a second bag of supplies. This bag is for Willow, Luna Seraphina helped to pack it herself.” She drops two bags at the door and then turns on her heel to go back for the other supplies. I wait until she is going down the stairs at the end of the hall before opening the door fully and pulling the bags quickly into the room.She reappears a few second later carrying a cooler and a few shopping bags, I open the door further for her to bring them in, but she stops a meter away and waits. “I’m
Georgia tosses a pair of shorts at me through the gap between the front seats, adjusts her seat forward and then turns the car around and drives back to the hospital.“I have alerted Dr Gamwell, he will be waiting for us.” She calls back quietly and I nod. I can’t seem to make myself respond or think clearly. I should have called the wolves straight away, instead I panicked and started running to Wills.“She’ll be alright Zale, smells like she was hit with a tranquiliser.” Georgia remarks as she pulls into the emergency bay at the hospital. I step out, pull on the shorts, and then pick Wills back up, running her into the hospital.Dr Gamwell is there waiting as promised, which is good because I don’t have the patience to wait for him. He leads me straight into a room, gesturing to the bed. I lay her down carefully as a nurse starts to put a blood pressure cuff on her along with a bundle of other monitors and wires. Dr Gamwell, lifts out the tranquiliser cartridge still stuck in her st
“Yes you can come with us.” The tall of the two says and pulls out what looks like a gun.I step back shocked.“Wills! Down. Now!” Finn shouts as he grabs something from his car and sprints back to me. I do as I’m told and try to duck down quickly, landing in an awkward crouch on the road.One of the two men, all dressed in black I now note, how did I not notice that before, turns to confront Finn. The one holding the gun, repositions it down to me aiming at my stomach and I feel a hard stinging punch hit me when he pulls the trigger, as I try to crab walk backwards away from him.Fuck that hurt.I look down at my stomach expecting to see a bullet hole, and blood but…is that a tranquiliser dart? I lift a hand to pull it out and bring it to my face for a closer look.Yep I think it’s a tranquiliser dart.The man shoots me in the stomach with another one and I look up at him with shock and mutter “OOWWWW! That’s a little overkill don’t you think.”“Sorry Willow, our orders are to bring
“You should know that my senses on these things are as accurate as Wills were on the she – wolfs bond today.”If I’m reading him right, he’s telling me that he’s a Toniar as well – but not like Willow and her mother – without actually telling me he is a Toniar. His bloodline is incredible powerful it seems.“We appreciate the advice and will of course work with Willow and your mate to see it done.” Anders promises in the expectant silence of the car. Gerald nods once and then he sits back again. The rest of the drive is in companionable quiet as we all try to reconcile ourselves to the changes that Wills has already brought into each of our lives – and the ones that have yet to come.I park the car and let Anders take Gerald in to meet his protective detail. I have this strange feeling in my gut. I’m not sure what it is exactly but it’s making me uneasy, as if I should shift and head home right that second. Instinct calling me to act, but why?I push it aside and say my last goodbyes
[“Help me – I’m stuck here.”] He begs, his voice strained.[“Why don’t you start by saying hello and shaking the man’s hand?”] I prompt, still smiling and hoping Anders makes a move so the silence doesn’t go from slightly uncomfortable into weird and awkward territory.“Oh sorry, hi. Anders…I mean y
There is a lyrical knock at the door and I do sigh with relief this time. Wills gets up and I use the distraction to check that the robe is still covering everything that needs to be covered before I need to get up from the table to find somehwere to get dressed.“Wills, welcome to the clan.” Anders
“So, we are now a pack.”“Apparently so – I guess we always have been. We are now also temporarily in Zales Clan. I don’t know about both of you but I’m still processing everything right now.” I reply and rub my eyes, waiting for them to give me their thoughts.“I’m definitely processing.” Thomas sa
“Plus, he’s hot right Thomas.” “You are stirring the pot on that one, but he needs it - been single too long.” He comments and gets up, coming around the table to kiss the top of my head."Like someone else I know." I comment with a pointed look that Dad ignores.“I’m beat – gonna call it a night
