"Knight! Where are you?! Raven?! Caleb?! Anyone?!" Simon's loud voice sounded through the whole pack, "What the fuck is wrong with the mindweb? Where is Knight and why is Raven the Alpha now?!"Shouting this was only Simon's way of waking up those who hadn't yet accepted his mindlink invitation --Simon couldn't force a joined mindlink of everyone in the pack, only an Alpha could.But he had no other choice.Everything was fine only a few hours ago--He woke up to the most peaceful and long-waited Christmas morning with his beloved daughter and lovely wife, to celebrate the last Christmas they get to spend in the forest--It was fine to live there when Knight had only a handful of guys to keep around. They cared little about things like houses, dresses, and holidays. But now with Knight becoming the Alpha, the pack could no longer just keep the rough rogues, but also werewolves with family and all.So Knight decided to accept Allura's kind offer and move his pack into a small town tha
Knight returned to his village after a perfect night with his mate, in a low mood-- it was only the beginning of a long wait that didn't have a time limit on, when being away from his mate for merely seconds seemed torture to him. It was only at the gate of the villiage did Knight rememebered -- Frost pledged to Rain in the mountain after Raven went in rage, though only for a short night, that merged the two packs before he gave the title back to Frost, meaning-- He was now an Alpha with no pack, again. And this time even his loyal rogues had left him. Just what he wanted right now -- he wanted to bury himself in bed and get some good sleep after the tiring visit of Raven's prison, hopefull he could sleep till forever-- That was the promised time of his mate's return, right? He was exhausted. "Alpha?!" Simon's shocked voice stopped Knight's legs when he was heading toward his little cabin, and Knight turned to look in shock, only to find-- More and more heads stucking out of t
"Raven...?" Knight got nervous when he lost all expectation of what Raven wanted a serious talk for."You really think she might poison me?" In a light tone, Raven waited till Allura was out of the room, making no move at neither the real cure nor the temp cure.It was the first time he really tried to go against the great Alpha in front of him, and magically, he calmed down and could think clearer like never before.He knew how to play the Alpha who had only his benefit in mind, and he just needed to make his moves right."I'm not saying that she has ill intention," Knight explained, trying to search for Raven's eyes, but Raven sighed with his eyes, low, "I know how hatred works, and she has been blaming you for what happened for too long to just shake it off overnight.""I see..." Raven sighed in a heavy tone, frowning as if the fact that he couldn't win his people's hearts over bothered him.And Knight fell for that instantly, because that feeling was genuine."I'm not saying that
Knight wrapped his arm around Raven's chest from behind, falling asleep quickly as Raven listened to his steady breath carefully, thinking about how to get out without Knight knowing.Whatever the bad news was, he couldn't trust Knight's decision.Raven closed his eyes and mindlinked Allura again.[Sorry about that,] Said Raven, looking around the laboratory through Allura's eyes, [what's the bad news?][We have analyzed the cure and basically re-created it exactly in the same proportion,] Allura raised a tube for Raven to see.[What do you mean basically?] Raven frowned, catching on to the keyword.[Well, we use the same method on them with a centrifuge and it came out as the same,] Allura put down the tube, and her eyes fell on the centrifuge in the middle of the room, [but somehow they are working differently...][As in?][As in, the mice with the poison in their blood took our cure calmed down instantly like how the cure was supposed to have worked, but later the symptoms appeared
"Knight...Knight?!" Raven mumbled when he opened his eyes, but the bed was empty, and that gave Raven an icy quiver before he threw the sheet away and jumped out of bed, only to fall to the ground with his body shaking in a heavy sweat.Knight was gone?! Again?![Noah!] Raven mindlinked Noah, trying to get back up to his feet, [Where are you? Where is Knight?!][Alpha?] Noah's confused voice came through, [I'm in the lobby of the Alpha's house, do you need me to come up to help?][No!] Raven huffed, [Where is Knight?!][I don't know...] Noah shot a worried glance up in the direction of Raven's bedroom before he left the lobby, [I'm coming--]"Yo," Knight's voice suddenly rose as the bathroom door slid open, "fancy way to wake up, Alpha Raven."Huffing Raven on the ground: "..."[Alpha, I--] Noah hesitated and Raven already cut the mindlink."Where did you go?!" Raven snapped angrily, cold sweat all over him when he woke up to an empty bed."The...bathroom..." Knight blinked innocently
Knight instantly understood Raven's shout, and he got out of Raven's grab easily before he jumped at Noah when Noah froze where he was."You break the vial and I'll die, too!" Raven shouted as he stumbled off the bed at the two, and his words slowed down Knight's move visibly."What the fuck are you still doing here?!" Raven snapped at Noah as he jumped on Knight's back, "Can't you do ONE thing you are told?! Run!""Give me the vial or your Alpha dies!" Knight cut in before Raven could even finish his sentence, "Don't obey your Alpha!"That was the weirdest order ever and Noah froze there, darting his eyes between the two Alphas like a moron."Noah!" Raven snapped, "What the hell?!""Your Alpha needs the vial!" Knight wouldn't budge, "I'm only trying to save him--""I-- I don't have the vial..." Noah mumbled with a frightened look, horrified."What?!" Raven snapped, "You took it and ran away when I--"He stopped his words, shooting a guilty glance at Knight and Knight instantly unders
