Travis was in the kitchen putting away food, washing dishes, wiping counters, etc.. generally this was all work the Omegas would do tonight after the run or tomorrow morning after or before breakfast. Travis figuresd he would help out, and it was a good excuse to stay away from Susan. Travis was so unsure what to do about her. Travis’s wolf was so drawn to her, but the feeling didn’t appear to be mutual. Travis knew he could only do so much. He could not force her to like him, it had to be her choice. Of course that was the hardest part… Travis could smell that she was responding to him, and yet she denied it, but why?
Still standing in the pack house kitchen, embracing each other and lip locked, Susan pulls back slightly and meets his eyes. They are both breathing heavily but smiling. “I may very well be your mate? Are you sure?”Travis grins before speaking, “Well pretty lady, time will tell.”
“You say they’re human, Hmm?” Travis clarified. Susan nodded in response but studied Travis, wondering why he asked that. “There was a human man following me at college this week. I introduced myself and he about shit himself.” Travis laughed.Putting her palm on Travis’s cheek, she looked him in the eye and said, &ld
Travis led Susan out by her hand. Susan was nervous and realized Travis was making a statement to the pack that she was with him and unavailable to the other young werewolves. Unsure how to process that Travis was claiming her, Susan kept her head bowed and her eyes to the ground as she went back to where Cat and Gannon were sitting. Gannnon ran to the car and grabbed her bag with sweatshirt and sweatpants for after the run. Taking the bag from Gannon, Susan thanked him.
Just as Travis was impressed by Susan’s beautiful wolf form, Susan thought Travis’ huge, mostly silver wolf interspersed with black hairs and a slightly brown underside was the most magnificent thing she had ever seen. Travis, Gannon, and Trayvon were all about equal in size, but larger than all the rest of the wolves. There was no doubt who the Alphas were.
The pack doctor was waiting in the first aid room at the pack house, but even rushing Alpha Trayvon into surgery to retrieve the bullet wasn’t enough. Dr. Hanson came out to deliver the news to Travis as Pauline was still unconscious. “The bullets appear to have been silver and laced with wolfsbane to increase bleeding, prevent shifting to heal, and make the poisoning more effective. Since the shot entered Trayvon’s heart, it was only a matter of time because the silver and wolfsbane were both pumped through his body once they entered his left ventricle. We removed the bullet in a last ditch effort to save Alpha Trayvon, but he succumbed to his in
Travis sent Susan home because he felt completely lost and didn’t want to show weakness in front of his mate. He couldn’t help but wonder how he was going to protect the pack, when he couldn’t protect his father and almost lost his mother as well. Who would want to kill the Alpha and Luna of the Mississippi Bluffs Pack? Why would they want to injure them? Travis kept it together emotionally until he was alone in the room with his mother, then put his head in his hands and began to cry. Tears flowed like a torrential rainfall. Sobs wra
The dream started out at the college cafeteria. Judging by the food being served, it was time for breakfast. Travis came walking in the door, locked his eyes on one specific man and headed straight for him with his teeth and fists clenched. Travis’s eyes were gold colored and he was radiating power and anger. The cafeteria was about ½ full; way too many witnesses for Travis to shift or for him to kill the man he was stalking, without dire consequences. Travis was alone, but appeared larger than life at that moment. As he reached the man’s table, he grabbed him by his jacket collar and slammed him up against the wall. Travis pulled his right arm back an
Monday turned into Tuesday, Tuesday into Wednesday, and before Sudan knew it, it was Thursday and she had not seen nor heard from Travis. Susan decided it was time to see if Travis was at football practice, but he was not visible on the field. The team was not wearing pads or helmets today since they were having a ‘no contact practice’ due to the Friday night game. If Travis was there, she should have seen him. Susan decided to suck it up and stopped at the fraternity since she knew Chett should be at practice. Another tall, fit looking male with a bald head answered the door when she knocked. “Well hello, can I help you?”
