There were gasps from everyone around. I stood still with wide eyes, throwing my hands over my mouth as blood oozed from the marks on Hilton's face while Ryan stood with clenched fists, panting hard. His eyes were a bright red and that meant his wolf was near.
Hilton immediately bowed his head, "I'm sorry sir, I won't let that happen again." Ryan was still breathing heavily, his claws still out when he turned to leave, exiting the arena and leaving everyone to wonder what had just happened, especially me."You fools, back to work!" Hilton barked orders, standing to his feet. I couldn't meet his gaze as he approached me, "and you, clean that mess up.""Yes Hilton." I nodded fast. Stacey came to my side to assist me in cleaning up the pieces of stone that were once a statue. "What the fuck was that about?" "I don't know." I shook my head, still trying to recover from the shock.Casper came to join us, "are you okay? You almost got yourself killed, what were you doing?" He asked as he heaped the stones into a huge bucket."I don't know, the statue just lost its balance and...""And Ryan fucking Powers was there to save you out of nowhere! Did you see his claws? He was being protective of you, oh my God, what if you're his mate?" She gasped."That's stupid and impossible. He did the bare minimum, any sensible man would have stopped Hilton from hitting Nadeline." Casper frowned, correcting her."Casper is right, I didn't even know when he walked in here." We had a bucket filled with stones and all three of us lifted our buckets and headed out of the arena to dump the stones in the yard."Uh, I don't think you guys realise who we're talking about here, Ryan doesn't do the bare minimum, he does what he fucking wants and what he wants is Nadeline." Stacey continued with her fantasy, "fuck, I'd be the best friend to the alpha's Luna." She squealed."I think you're forgetting omegas cannot find their mates." I rolled my eyes."But alphas can! And just because omegas can't know their mates, doesn't mean they don't have one." She continued to blabber. "You know what, enough of this. Let's just clean up before I anger Hilton even more than he already is." We returned to the arena to fill our buckets once more."How do you feel about turning nineteen on the very day of the bloodmoon festival?" Stacey asked me when we were done for the day and heading home."That's not until next month, I'll let you know by then." I chuckled. "Um, need I remind you that next month is tomorrow, and your birthday is literally just three days away." "Good job calendar." I teased, "Listen, I don't know yet, I'm just glad we'll get to see the festival this year, I want to know everything that happens in there." "Me too! It's also the night when Alpha Park hands over to Ryan." She hugged herself, "damn, it's going to be one long reign but hey as long as he protects us, no big deal.""I'm going to miss Alpha Park so much." I sighed."But you're going to have the alpha as your mate." She nudged her shoulder against mine."He's not my fucking mate for the last time, ugh." I said, "we already got off to a weird start, me blurting I was a virgin when he only wanted me to help with some dumb lilies and-""Wait, you told him you were a virgin?" Casper chipped in from behind us. Both Stacey and I screamed and hugged each other from being startled."Don't sneak up on us like that!" Stacey scolded."Sorry but Nadeline, did you really tell him that?" He asked with a frown and I nodded in response. "I knew it. It's no wonder he was being that way with you. That bastard, he thinks he can get everything he wants. Stay away from him Nadeline, he is only trying to get you for what you might be able to give him, I know him." Casper warned."Wait, so all I have to do to get with him is lie that I'm a virgin?" Stacey chipped in, "sign me up.""Shut up." Casper and I said simultaneously. I thought about Caspers words and wondered if I should tell them about the way he had touched my face. 'Why don't you tell them how turned on that made you instead?' Aela mocked me and I just ignored her."Hey, should we go on a run?" Casper suggested, "I haven't let my wolf out all week, he's dying to come out." "I'm in!" Stacey jumped in excitement."Uh-oh better be careful." I warned Casper, "I think she's on heat. You don't want your wolf mating with hers and having the most talkative pups." "I'm not in heat!" Stacey frowned, slapping my back playfully."Come on." Casper urged."But it's so dark outside, aren't you guys tired after today's hard work?" I groaned."We are wolves, a.k.a predators, we will be fine. Come on, don't be such a loser." Casper smiled at me and lifted me off my feet, hurling me around his neck and running out of the omega quarters with Stacey while I screamed to be put down. We wandered up the hill and stood there. "We will race into the woods and back, and call it a night." Casper called and Stacey and I nodded.We all shifted into our wolves and howled at the full moon for a good minute. Naturally, all omegas had gray fur and were smaller than normal wolves but that was not the case for Stacey or Casper. Stacey's wolf was dark brown like all the wolves from her original pack and Casper's was black like all warrior wolves in our pack. "Ready?" Casper asked through our mind link and we were eager to go.Aela was happy to be free again and ran faster than Casper and Stacey's wolf. She howled all the way through the forest and into the woods while Casper and Stacey caught up. It felt like freedom.As we drew further into the woods, I asked through the link, "wait, do you guys hear something?""What?" Stacey wondered."Lower your heads." I ordered, "don't make any sounds."They did as I said and the voices became clearer. Our wolves could hear much better than we could and so even though the voices were speaking in hushed tones, we could clearly make their words out. "Ryan, we really should just move the festival or skip it this year." An unidentifiable male voice pleaded."Never!" Ryan growled, "not the year when I'm to be made Alpha." "But the pack could be in danger." The other person said."The warriors will protect everyone, I'll be alpha and I won't let anything happen to my pack. The festival will hold." Ryan argued."But people will die." "After all, sacrifices should be made every once in a while, they will be the sacrifice to my reign, the festival will hold regardless." Ryan said in conclusion.Early the next morning we were up and ready to leave."You know how I was so tempted to get a driver for this journey." Ryan broke the silence all of a sudden as we loaded our items into the trunk of the car."Why?" I asked him in confusion, we were both in great states to drive, I didn't see any reason why we would probably need a driver."Just so that I can have the chance to have sex with you , car sex is always the best." He said, heading to the driver's seat after opening the passenger side for me."Tell me you're joking.""I'm not," he set the vehicle in motion and we made our way out of there."I hope Tim is ready for us, you informed him we would be coming over, right?""Of course." He nodded.I flashed a smile and held his thighs as he hit the road."That's dangerous, careful how you tight me you know my cock literally tracts to every single one of your touch in the most inappropriate way, an accident is the last thing we want to deal with right now."Come on," I shook my hea
Nadeline povI turned to Ryan who was by us with some of the Rd games he'd bought on his last trip to the store. "You know for some reason I kind of feel jealous of Danna and Devin, I know we just got back from our vacation but I got to admit it was too amazing, I kind of just want to do that all over again.""Hm-hm." He nodded, his full attention drawn to the game.I rolled my y eyes at him, "goodness, ever since you discovered this bull shit, it is literally all you spend your day doing, come on," I stood in front of him, blocking his view of the television."Dude!" He yelled and I widened my eyes."Did you just call me dude?" I tried to sit on his legs but he dodged me, trying to look past me and focus on the game instead.I sighed and turned to just walk away from him when he held my wrist to pull me back, "oh so now you pause the game.""I'm sorry ok it's just that this is so addictive but you know you are more addicted to me," he tried to coerce me with his with words and I jus
Danna povIt has been a while since Devin and I fixed our fight with each other and in all truthfulness, going to see a couple therapist had worked. It was one thing to be fated to someone but even that uncontrollable instincts and attachment that came with it sometimes wasn't enough."finally feels like the pack is back to living in peace after what feels like forever." Devin said while I flipped some pancakes in the pan. My hair was sitting in a bun above my head and I was wearing one of his shirts.He stood to come and give me a hug from behind. "You know you're going to distract me that way," I playfully slapped his hand off with the spatula I was using as a scoop and he let go, feigning hurt."You're right though my love, I love how humans come up with these things and make their lives much easier. We werewolves sadly get to live such a montoke life, it can actually be really annoying." He said and I nodded in agreement, because I couldn't have agreed more."I wouldn't rely on th
So ... I lost my job and that was very expected.I honestly didn't want to explain the traumatising look on the man's face when he saw us.Ryan didn't care, it was too drunk to keep going just because it was too on the way to stop but I got to my feet and shamefully packed my clothes off the floor and started putting them on."I can't believe what you did to me." I shook my head in the car still in disbelief at what kind of trauma that man must have faced and oh my goddess the fact that there might have been cameras there. What was I even thinking about? How could I let myself get so lost."Yeah so now that we have more privacy in the car, shall we pick up where we left off?" He asked. I certainly wasn't expecting him to feel bad because this was what you wanted in the first place so that but I was shattered."I lost my job before I even got to start it, how can you not even feel bad about this?" I sniffed."Whoa, don't you dare cry on me, hey, I didn't mean for things to happen the w
Getting myself a corporate outfit was not really a problem for me because I had access to all of that.Ryan had stated through his words and was now driving me to work.It was not a far ride from the packhouse to this part of the city where my job was ,"well we have gotten here right now if you can take your leave now.""O want to be sure that nothing bad goes wrong and whoever it is you're working for isn't some Ashoke that will treat you like shit.""I think you're forgetting who you are talking to I am not just anybody that's an a****** to treat me like crap. If he gives me bad energy I will replicate it in the most presentable way by 10 so don't worry I'm fine." I shook my head at him because I knew that it was intentionally stolen so that it would not go on time. "Ryan trustco bank now I will deal with things by myself okay the park probably needs you right now."I got into the company and it seemed like everything was fine. The man I was supposed to be working for was Nail Alexa
When we got back to the packhouse, there was still nothing new that had occurred. It wasn't like I wanted something bad to happen to the park but at least there had to be some fun. It was just dead, everyone living like humans going to work coming back home. It really sucked. I missed the days we had Annual blood moon festivals, mating seasons and all those things that actually made us werewolves even though I had said it multiple times that I didn't care if we humanised ourselves. It really hurt my feelings.Ryan was in a pack meeting with Devin and Sean and I was expecting him so walking to the house but then it was none other than Danna"Hi my love." She walked in with a bowl of fruits and a newspaper, "how are you feeling now?""Much better than before.""That's amazing, I brought you a bowl of fruits, they're good for your health and stuff.""Thanks doc."She placed a newspaper in front of me and I saw that it was not the pack one, "why are you reading human news?""Coz I'm into
