Nico happened to be on duty this night and he was grumpy that as well. He was one of the lead warriors and was he duty to go around to all borders checking with the warriors if everything was okay. Lead warrior’s duties were to check all borders during patrol to make sure that everything was still alright. He would have to drive from the Rosewood borders all the way to the rogue pack borders checking on things.
He was doing that at this moment, coming from the north border going to check on the south. Layla had been sitting there hiding for hours now, she was looking for an opening to go in unnoticed, but the warriors of Rosewood were very vigilant and they did not even look sleepy. Which frustrated Layla, but still waited with hope that sooner or later he was going to get an opening.
She did not know why she was not leaving but her wolf kept on insisting they waited and so they did, few more hours of waiting her wolf got agitated and started jumping around. She
“Luka, stop playing with sand, you know mama wont like it when you get into the house full of sand.” Nova said to her brother, but Luka stood up and continued to throw sand around giggling. “Luka no!” Nova stood up attempting to stop him, but Luka ran to the packhouse with Nova right behind him. He was giggling as he ran and almost falling.He got in and ran to the kitchen where their mother was. “No running!” Anita reprimanded and Luka stopped then turned to look at his sister. “Mama!” called Nova coming into the kitchen. “Yes, princess?” answered Anita busy making cookie dough. “Look at your son, he was at it again just now.” Anita stiffened her laugh then looked at Luka, little Luka had sand all over his face and even on his hair.“You were playing with sand again Luka.” Said Anita looking at him.“No” said Luka shaking his head. “He was mama, look at him.&rd
As the pain tore through him Nico clutched at his chest feeling like his heart was being ripped out of his chest. The pain was unbearable and excruciating. He felt like he was going to die right there and then. “Aaaaah!!” he cried out painfully clutching his chest. As the pain intensified, he shifted into his wolf form then he looked up in the sky and howled, other werewolves close by heard the painful howl and joined in.He was close to the border of Rosewood when this happened and the werewolves that heard him were the warriors on patrol. After the howl, they went looking for him and found him in his wolf form curled up on the ground looking helpless. They surrounded him as the other warrior mind linked Marco to come quickly. As the other beta, Marco could sense the urgency in the warrior’s voice and came running to see what was happening.When he got there, he saw Nico curled up on the ground looking like an injured dog. ‘What happened,
Nathan’s heart ached seeing his mate like that, he closed his eyes to fight the tears from falling. ‘Goddess, did you bring my mate to me only for me to keep hurting her like this? Did you not maybe make a mistake giving her to me? I am not good enough for this angel, she is pure and had a heart of gold.’ Nathan said a silent prayer before taking slow steps towards his mate. His feel felt heavy to lift and his heart hurt painfully in his chest.They say that the hardest wounds to heal are those on the inside for they do not get air to heal naturally. Nathan feared what the pain he has been causing his mate must be doing to her inside, she might forgive him and take him back. But does that mean the wounds have healed? He feared not. He stopped close to her and extended his hand then gently.“My love, please say something, whatever you are feeling right now please don’t keep it in, tell me, doesn’t matter how hurtful it m
Months passed and still no sign of Layla. Nico looked like a walking zombie, he missed his mate so much and longed to be with her but he could not find her. He looked everywhere he thought she might be but she was not there, he never found her. he spent these months searching for her with no luck. Nathan as well has been looking for her but with no luck, not even a clue of where she could be, it's like she vanished. Which made him more paranoid thinking that she was planning something again.The good news is that he found Steven and brought him back to the pack. He came back a changed man, stricter than he was and more focused. Nathan liked the new version of him and so did Divan. The three of them have been helping each other in the search for Layla, they had teams made up of members from the rogue pack, rosewood and silver sands. So far, none of them had luck in finding Layla.Nathan and Anita have been working on their relationship. It was not hard doing so as the m
Nathan wakes up inhaling a deep breath like he has been drowning, this startled Laura as she was not expecting it, her hand was on her chest with her eyes popped looking at him. Nathan finally noticed her and he gave her a small smile. “Am sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” He apologized to her and Laura calmed down a bit. “Am glad to see you back and your father will be happy too,” Laura told him getting up from where she was seating.Nathan wanted to ask about Anita but was afraid of the answer he was going to get from Laura. “I have mind-linked your father and told him that you are awake. Anita is okay.” She told him without looking at him and left. Nathan sighed feeling defeated and wondering what it will take for him to fix things with everyone. ‘Why is she angry with you?’ asked Brice making Nathan sigh once again.‘She is angry because of what I did to our mate, she is her daughter remember?’ B
Three days have passed, and Nathan has not woken up. Jackson has been with him all this time, he got a tent and sleeping bags for the both and stayed there with him. Divan and Laura have been running the pack together while Jackson and Nathan are not available. Jackson was worried about his son, not only that but the way he had been acting towards him.He has made mistakes that he admits but he too did not make life easy for him after everything that has happened. He was angry but now he regrets not giving his son a chance. Laura comes to him as he was sitting outside the tent watching the pack member’s train. “My love, please go and show then have something to eat.” She has been coming to bring him food every day because he refused to leave Nathan alone.But he has not been showering. “I can’t leave him alone, just bring me something to eat like you have been doing.” He told him, he looked like he aged a few years due to the level o
