Unknown POVI stood in the shadows leaning against a wall, the rain falling hard around me as I watched the dive bar from a distance.“You stupid piece of shit. How did they get away from you? She was completely fucked when I left for the Midnight Hour Pack. After we fucked I made sure to let her know that if her son done anything to fuck us over she would be next. She should have been unable to move.”I watched Hunter scream at one of his pack members. Rogues are a disgusting breed all on their own.“Sir, they disappeared. You were right, they headed for Midnight Hours borders but we lost their scent a few miles away.” The young man replied, clearly fearing for his life.I watched as he lifted his hand to hit the kid but he was stopped by his phone ringing.“Hello........ What?....... Well what the fuck was it?...... What do you mean it felt like an Alpha command?....”I stood from the wall, drawn to his conversation.“It's her. She's a lot more powerful than I though.... Stay close
Being a 17-year-old ‘unhinged rebellious bitch’ or an ‘unwanted rouge’ as others called me, who grew up in the system didn’t make me the most popular person but I’m doing what I can with what I have. I was found by the side of the road as a baby, no more than a few days old doctors thought, but from then I’ve bounced from state to state. From foster orphanage to foster home and back again over and over. For the last 2 years I’ve managed to stay in the same house, but it’s been… Challenging…I’m the oldest of 3 foster kids, which means I’m the one who gets the most shit from Florence and Winston or as we call them ‘jerks who just want the money’. They are two of the most uncaring and pompous assholes I’ve ever came across. They didn’t have the room to take me in when they did so they transformed a small storage room under the stairs to the attic for me to stay in, I guess they were fans of Harry Potter, and all because they wanted the extra money that came with taking me in. They knew I
School wasn’t my favourite place, but at least I was out of Florence and Winston’s way. I managed to make it on time today, thankfully. It makes it easier to be stealthy when the halls aren’t as crowded. I made it to my locker and then to class without incident or running into anyone I didn’t want to. It seems being the poor unloved orphan didn’t make me one of the popular kids, but it did put a target on my back for them. It came with a load of attention I didn’t want, nor did I have any choice over getting. Getting into first period I rush to the back and got my seat in the corner. Math. I like Math. Numbers aren’t mean and can’t lie. They are simple and factual. The next few classes flew by quickly and next thing I knew it was lunch time. Slumping into the queue, I quickly picked out a sandwich and left to go eat outside. I always enjoyed the outdoors. Growing up I rarely had access to outdoor activities so every time I got the chance to be outside, I would take it. I was too
Getting to the front of the house I noticed that Winston’s car was still here. “SHIT!” I muttered to myself. He would usually leave around lunch time when he finally rolled out of bed to go on a beer run, but he seemed to be running late today. Not wanting to deal with that shitstorm I went to the back of the old rundown house. There was a basement that had a window that was level with the grass bedding. It was small but luckily so was I. I carefully opened the window, clenching my teeth when it let out a loud squeak, and I slipped very ungracefully through. As my foot hit the bench underneath the window, it slipped off the edge and I crashed down landing on my ass with a hard thump. I heard footsteps above me and crawled backwards under the bench, waiting to see if I’d been caught, but thankfully, they continued down the hallway until I heard the faint jingle of keys and then front door bang shut. I let out a long breath and started up the stairs quickly to go and get changed so
“What the fuck?” the look in his eyes told me that I didn’t just imagine the voice I heard. But the way he was looking at me, did it really come from my lips? He glared at me for what felt like minutes before I heard the voice again. “Untie me and let me go!” it demanded. Strong and confidently. I didn’t understand, it was my voice, with something else coming through. I wasn’t speaking yet, I was. Catching himself again, Winston took a breath, “You almost had me there! For a minute I thought you were possessed.” He laughed before he continued trying to undo my button. A scream left my lips as pain I’ve never felt before radiated through me. From my head to my toes, to my fingertips. My fingertips. I looked up to my hands where I could feel the pain, and fear and shock overtook me. Winston following my eyes looked up. “What the fuck is that?” My hands weren’t my hands. Where my fingernails should have been there were claws. Long and sharp as if my nails grew into razorblades in
Aleister’s POV “Yo dipshit. Are you on patrol tonight?” Liam said coming into the room shoving toast into his mouth. “Dude close your mouth, I just had the room cleaned. Yeah, I’m on the south side tonight why?” Shoving me over on my sofa he threw his feet on the table looking over to my screen and rolling his eyes. “Don’t you ever do anything other than study? I was talking to Leon, and he said if its okay with you, can we switch up tonight. I’m over east beside the human forest. It’s a guaranteed easy night, but Cassie is working south, and I think she might be the one, man.” Looking at my brother I rolled my eyes “Wasn’t Steph the one? Or wasn’t it Alicia? Oh no wait, it was Heather” I laughed. “Dick! I thought they were, but I swear man, Cassie is just such a babe and she is playing hard to get.” “Fine I’ll switch just this once, but you owe me. You know its boring over by the human forest.” “You’re the best brother EVER. But don’t tell Leon or Nate I said that. I wanna liv
Aleister POV “Wait” I tried to shout but even in human form she was so fast. I took off after her while opening a mind link. “Leon, she doesn’t know. I shifted to try and talk to her, but she doesn’t know she’s a wolf or what we are, but she’s seen me and bolted” I screamed down the link panicked. “Shit Aleister. You need to get her. If she tells anyone or if she fucking shifts in public it will get back to the hunters. You need to stop her. Kill her if you need to. I’m sending more men.” I cut the link about to shift when I seen her exit the tree line. I heard the screeching sound of tires followed by the sound of her hitting off the front of a vehicle. “I don’t think that will be necessary. She just got hit be a car on the road.” I linked Leon. “Good. Get out of there.” He answered angrily and cut the link. I walked over to the tree line to see what had happened. Seeing her lay on the ground, she was covered in blood looking at the stars. I was about to leave when I seen her
Leon POV For the next few hours, I just get a feeling of unease and can’t seem to focus. I got up and walked over to gaze out of my window until I feel the link from Aleister again. “Leon, the girl, I think she’s a wolf but hasn’t shifted. I can’t smell which pack she would be from, and she doesn’t smell like a rogue. What do I do?” Shit, if she’s not alone or a runaway she could lead others here. “Just follow her a bit longer. If she turns towards the forest drive her out. The last thing we need is more unknown wolves trying to get on to our territory.” I snapped, feeling like shit right after as I felt him cut the link. Crap, I hope he doesn’t think I’m annoyed at him. I paced in my office for what seemed like hours waiting on Aleister giving me an update. “He is smart and strong. Don’t worry about him. We have trained him well.” My wolf Khaos reminded me. I’ll just sit down and get some more plans started, I thought but quickly a link opened with Aleister who was shouting in
