Splitting off, we each began to circle with our chosen targets, I took the largest, a sandy colored male almost as tall as I was, a clear sign of powerful blood, most likely the cast out of a Beta family if I had to guess. But I did not need his life story, I needed his life.
“Come on, big boy.” I taunted him, through a private mind-link I created between us. His eyes grew wide in surprise for a moment at the unexpected connection, before he was snarling at me once more, clearly he did not like being challenged. Good, I needed an outlet for some of this tension I had been carrying around for the past few days.
He attacked first, launching himself at me, his jaws open wide as he aimed for my neck. Whatever his history was, he had never been taught proper battle strategy. I sidestepped him right before he would have connected, using my Alpha strength to up my speed and twisted around to lock my jaws on his hind leg, yanking him ba
Thank you for reading, hope you're enjoying the story so far!
“What exactly do you have to take care of that is more important than interrogating the first warrior of Genesis’s that we have captured alive?” My brother demanded, occasionally Fenris could see more than I gave him credit for. “Nothing of importance.” I mumbled through our link, licking at my paws to clean them of the blood beginning to dry on them. “Bull shit, for it to take your focus from Genesis, it must be important…” He was now thinking, a dangerous thing for Fenris to do. “You have to promise not to tell anyone until I’m ready.” I needed someone I could trust to discuss this with, I needed another wolf besides Sapphire to talk to about this. “Thanks a lot.” Sapphire grumbled. “You know what I mean.” I snapped at her in frustration. “Okay, interesting. What’s up Eva?” Fenris asked, leaning back against a wide tre
She killed him. I stood at the forests edge, having just arrived at what looked like a war scene between two different packs of wolves, when I saw her. She was standing before a human man, he was naked and dirty, but he was human; and she’d killed him. She had torn his head from his body. Lavender had always been so sweet to me, so calm. But this was something else, for once I saw her for what she was, a dangerous animal. I could not risk my life anymore being near her, I had to protect myself. Alexandria needed me; my trial patients needed me. As much as it hurt my heart to even consider hurting her, I stood at the rivers edge clasping my firearm in my hands, swearing that she would leave and not come back, or I would have no other choice. All too soon she was there, and after a deep, calming breath to help center my racing heart, I turned to face her, raising the gun in both hands, and aiming it for her. As nervo
Riding on the back of a wolf who was almost as large as I was had to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life, but the magic of what was happening was taken away by the fact that I held the most beautiful woman I had ever met in my arms, clinging to her for dear life, as she struggled to breath. In the distance a large brick and iron gate began to come into view, I thought that we would begin to slow down, find a gate through. Instead, Fenris sped up, when I realized his intentions, I ducked my head down, burying my face in his fur as I clung to him and Eva with all my might, trying like hell to make sure we didn’t slip off and straight onto the spikes at the top of said fence. I felt the moment he pushed off the ground, soaring through the air, I was to afraid to look, scared to see out death coming up to meet us before I had even had a chance to know the amazing woman in my arms, but instead of freefalling through the air, we
For what felt like days I sat there next to her, my hands wrapped around hers, begging her to open her eyes and just let me know she was okay; but it couldn’t have been more than a few hours. Lila had kicked us out of the room once Eva was stable, insisting we did not need to be present while her and another woman whose name I did not catch, cleaned her up and got her dressed. The thirty minutes they had kicked us out for had me on edge, I had this need to be with her, to be beside her. When the door finally opened and Lila said we could go back in, I raced to her side. Lila had cleaned he blood from Eva’s pale skin, braided her long hair to the side, and put her in a soft spaghetti strapped purple night dress, before slipping her under the heavy comforter they had also replaced with a none blood stained one. Laying on the bed beside her, I noticed after a while that they refused to leave me alone with her, someone else was always in the room, eyes train
“Wake up Eva, come on wild wolfy, you need to wake up now.” Wild wolfy? Only one person called me that, and he was dead. Of course, since I was surrounded by blackness, perhaps I had moved on to the next realm as well. “Get up Goldie locks, your mate is waiting on you to wake up. He needs you, Evangeline.” Goldie locks? Wild Wolfy? Where was I? Those voices sounded so familiar as well. Soft chuckling filled my mind from two distinct voices. I wanted to open my eyes and look for them, see the two men I had loved when I barely knew what love was. But I knew that if I opened my eyes, I wouldn’t see them, I’d be back in the real world, and though I wanted Valen as well, a few more minutes with my first loves wouldn’t hurt, right? “Galden? Neil? I don’t understand.” “We told you we’d always be with you.” Galden’s voi
Pulling the blanket tighter around my shivering body I tried to conserve as much of my own body heat within the fabric as possible. There was no way of telling time down here, with no windows I had no idea when it was day or night, so I hadn’t a clue how long I’d been in this freezing and desolate dungeon; and that was not an exaggeration, it was a dungeon. The ground was concrete, with floor to ceiling bars going into the rock ceiling and walls. Though unlike normal bars which would be darker and made of perhaps iron or steel, these bars appeared to be polished to perfection and silver in color. Though if this was where they kept enemies of their own kind and they were in fact weakened by silver, it made sense that these bars weren’t just painted silver, but in fact pure. Blake, the redhead healer, and his mate, Lila, the beautiful model, came down to see me four times, bringing hot food and blankets each time. I had enough blankets to
We sat there for hours just talking. Well, I asked questions and he talked. Valen told me about growing up as an only child with two loving parents, about graduating high school early and going to college and then med school. Finally, we broached the subject of his current life and he seemed to shut down a little, not as ecstatic to spill all the details. We were lying on the bed, propped on our elbows while we faced each other, close but not touching, as he told me about what he’d been working on lately. “Well, I’m currently working on a cancer trial, trying to create a drug that will cure a certain childhood cancer that currently has no viable treatment.” “That sounds interesting. Cancer is a sickness that kills a lot of humans, right?” I’d heard about it in TV shows but had never discussed it at link before. “Yes, it takes a lot of human lives, is it not a problem for werewolves?” Valen sat up a bit straighter,
I was out of the bed in a flash, moving for my closet and dragging comfortable clothes from the drawers, grey cotton sweatpants and a white tank top along with soft cotton slip on shoes. I was wrapping my hair around itself at the nape of my neck and securing it with a hair tie when I walked out, Alaric and Valen were glaring at one another, but no words were being spoken. As I padded quickly back into the room both men turned to look at me, Alaric nodded his head and turned to exit the room, leaving the door open behind him, knowing I would be following closely behind.. Valen moved forward, blocking my path with his larger body, his adorably mismatched eyes wide with confusion. “Where are you going? Who is Genesis?” “I don’t have time to explain this now, but I will when I get back okay? Just stay here and listen to your guards, I need to know you are safe or I won’t be able to focus on the fight.” Pushing up onto my tiptoes I brushed m
