" thank you for telling me the truth mom, finally and I have never resented you, I know how much you and dad love me, even more so than your own son and I love you too so very much and I thank you for doing what you did and taking such great care of me but unfortunately I can no longer stay here but it would always, always be my home mama " I pulled her into a hug and she sobbed into my chest and hugged me back " I love you Beau, with my whole heart, never you forget that and your room will always be right here for you " " thanks mom "
* knock knock * " there's a red head downstairs says she came to meet him and take him back to their college " my older brother stares at me and points like I'm nothing more than a nuisance in his eyes, which I probably am, I stand and look out the window and Red is there, she looks up at me as though she can see me looking at her, I smile and turn to head down " let's go mom, I'd like you to meet my friend " she washes her face and dolls herself up in my bathroom before heading down with me, by the time my mom and I get downstairs my brother is already chatting it up with Red, from the looks of it she's not the least but interested in what ever he's saying. I catch the word " freak " as we approach her and her eyes harden as she finally turns to look at him and I can feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, as though I can sense she's going to hurt him " Red! " she turns to look at me and her body relaxes a bit as she walks away from him and moves towards my mom and I " good day ma'am my name is Roho, I am a representative of Turafine Acadamy where Beau will be enrolling, please see this letter of acceptance sent from our Dean " she hands mom the letter and she opens the envelope and reads through it " you'd be gone for such a long time Beau " my brother interjects " I've never heard of such an institute before, is it some place new? " she turned to face Mike " of course you've never heard it, it's because it's an exclusive institution where persons such as myself and Beau are accepted to harness our uniqueness, someone like yourself would never be able to see the gates let alone get in " his face is red with embarrassment and he stays silent. " Please don't worry ma'am we will take the best care of your son, and he would be able to visit after about a year or so into the program " my mom smiles and nods " okay, that's great, well I guess based on your staying out in the yard you have to get on the road right away " " that's correct ma'am " she turned to me and pulled me down into a hug " I love you Beau, please take care of yourself out there and do pay your mother a visit from time to time " I hugged her back " I'll miss you mom and I'd be okay, I will visit you I promise " she smiled and released me " off you go then ". " Be right back " I say to Red who nods I put my things into the jeep and pull up to where she's standing, she hops in and we wave bye to my mom and head out " how did you get here? " I just realized she doesn't have a vehicle as she's riding with me " I ran " she says as though it's nothing, wow okay then, she pushed the seat back into laying position " you remember the way ? " " of course " " cool " she actually went to sleep. Roho " Come on in Roro, there's no point in dawdling outside my office door " damn, I turn the knob and enter the Alpha's office and bow " Alpha, you asked to see me " " sit down dear, we have much to discuss " Oh boy here we go, " first order of business, you vouched for someone you just met Ro, that's very unlike you, care to explain that " " uhm, I don't know Alpha, there is just something about him, it's hard to describe, it just felt like something I had to do " he stares at me for a while then nods " okay... okay, I understand, next order of business, care to tell me how on earth you knew what a Rounce is young lady " Oh boy, how do I even begin to explain, "uhm, well you see Alpha, I may or may not have made friends with a w-witch who uhm taught me about different beings, both light and dark, and also about potions and magic sir "I just blurted everything out in one go and hope for the best now I suppose. I look up at him after not hearing any movements or response from him, his chin is resting on his palm as he stares hard at me not blinking, "Alpha?" " I see, so you've befriended a witch who taught you interesting things, and where pray tell have you met this witch Ro and for how long have you known her and where does she live?" he asks these questions with a lethal and eerie low voice." I've known her for about Two years give or take, I met her by chance not too far outside our border when I was out for a run, well walk I guess and uhm, she lives in a cottage but I promised her I'd keep her home safe, please please please don't make me break my promise, I give you my word she's not dangerous to us, she really is the sweetest " " you seem to be throwing your words around quite a lot within the past couple hours, very well Ro, I will give your witch the benefit of the doubt"I breathe a sigh of relief " than
I sniffle and nod at him, we get back into the car and drive back to his house, this time with a comfortable silence, before we got out the car and touch his hand and simply say " thank you, I love it very much " " you're welcome honey, don't mention it" I nod and get out of the car, I rush to my room and grab a quick shower, change my clothes and head out the door.I began walking to the packhouse to meet Ivo so he could drop me to a point and then find my way the rest of the way when my dad slowed down by me " get in, I'd drop you " I hop in and we head out through the pack gates and down towards the high way " Ro, I hope you don't mind but I'd rather keep the fact that I bought the house for you from Nika and the kids okay? " " you didn't have to tell me that dad, I know, the last thing I want is to cause any trouble for you, I had no intention of saying anything to anyone " we continue the drive to a point and I ask him to pull over, I take a whiff and we continue on up until I c
I give a quick bow because it felt right and scurried after her " you know Red, if you don't want me in your house I'd be more than happy to tell Alpha I'd stay here " " oh be quiet and drive " we drove to what I would call the outskirts and pulled up to a house, I must say for the kind of person and the way she carries herself this is not what I expected her house to look like." Stop judging my home, and let's go in " I grabbed my bags and followed her onto the porch, she was about to turn the lock when she sighed and hung her head, she signalled for me to stand to the side and pushed the door open and stepped out of the way and out sprang this big guy while Two other voices inside shouted " SURPRISE!! " " Red, did you really have to dodge me like that? " " look at your big a** and look at me guy, you tryna crack my head on the porch or something? " " I'd never let you get hurt Red you know that " she smiled then glanced at me and it's as though everyone was just noticing me for the
" Alrighty Red, your kitchen is once again clean " " thank you, so Beau, time is really counting down for you so I'd give you a quick run down and the guys would fill in anything I miss out okay? " " okay " I sit opposite her, giving her my full attention." Right okay, so as you now know we're Werewolves, as regular wolves we live in packs and we have an Alpha, the Alpha's wife is called his mate and mates are predestined by our Moon God and Goddess, they are basically the other half of our souls or our soulmates, you'd be able to scent your mate after you come of age and shift, if you are ever disloyal to your mate he or she would feel a stabbing pain in their chest and vice versa if your mate is disloyal to you, when you touch you'd feel what we call sparks, she would be the only person you would feel that with and your world would rotate around her once you meet her, Alpha mates are called Lunas' our Alpha is Teejan Woods and his mate is Beatrice Woods so they'd be called Alpha Te
Alpha Woods( On a phone call )" I'm telling you Trevor, it has to be him, he's the spitting image of you and Maddie, I'm 90 percent sure he's your son Trent, and the time line matches, tomorrow is his Eighteenth birthday so please try to be here for his first shift, he was raised with humans without any knowledge of our kind so you'd have much to teach him and I'm sure he'd have questions as to where you've been all his life "" No, I don't think I'm wrong Tre, not this time, no Red, and her team mates happened upon them close to our border, he was scared and running away from his human family because people called him a freak for being different, his friends ran away with him, he's returned them home and everything already, please be here "" Okay, see you soon brother "There's no way I could be wrong about this, Beau, his resemblance is too uncanny to not be my nephew, my younger brother Trevor has been looking for his pup so Eighteen long years, he's supposed to be my Beta but b
I chuckle and grab my bag with my clothes, I close my bedroom door and follow her out, we use the jeep and drive back into the centre of the pack where the packhouse is located.When we get out of the jeep the Alpha, Luna and kids are there on the front porch but there is a strange vibe about them “ is everything okay Alpha? ” “ well, we are about to find out Roro” “ okay, shall I stay out here sir or return home?” “ of course not Roro, none of this would have been possible without you honey, Beau please both of you come in and please keep an open mind okay”I silently walk up to them and follow them in the Alpha kids seem to be looking at me with less hostility than before, well I guess having dinner with me paid off then.I walk into the common area and I freeze, there’s a man there he’s an exact replica of me but older, or perhaps I should say, I’m an exact replica of him, I sniff the air and I know right away, this man, this man is my father. Before I say a word he spoke “ I spent
I pick up the sound of footsteps and turn around growling ready to fight " calm down son, it's us, it's me your dad" I growl more aggressively while covering Red with my body, what the hell is happening to me? I was about to lounge when another wave of pain hit me and I fall over and groan in pain, beads of sweat begin to fall from my body, I feel warm hands gently rub my side, even though the pain does not subside it still calms me down a bit " Roro get out of there before he hurts you " I growl ferociously at my uncle, I'm sorry guys I can't help it, I place my weight down on Red, God I hope I'm not hurting her. Another round of mind breaking pain shoots to me and I swear to you I'm about to die, my bones feel like they're breaking on their own, I look down at my hands and I can see fur shooting though my skin, my nose begins to elongate, there's fur everywhere, I throw my head back and scream but it comes out as a howl, I'm exhausted, I hadn't even noticed that Red had moved from
Alpha King Tyler " My King Two more packs have reported rogue attacks and abductions during the attack " I slam my hand on the desk " what the hell is going on? since when are rogue wolves organized enough to stage attack on packs and what's the purpose of abducting people from packs? and what makes it worse is after the attack no one is able to trace them? do they vanish into thin air, do you have any idea the stench rogue wolves carry? how the hell could that stink hide and vanish so quickly? make it make sense to me ! "" I'm not sure what to tell you in regards to that my King, what do you suggest we do?"" Send out Six envoys, Three to each pack let them bring monetary donations to the families who lost a member and to the Alpha for repairs, I know that money could never replace a loved one but it can assist them in any sort of repairs they may need done to their homes and what not, also have them make inquiries about the persons who were taken, see if there was anything out of
Lord Umi"Looks like we'd be able to return home tonight guys" " isn't it best to wait until Ms. Astrid calls to say she's reached her destination before we head back? she may worry and even return if she is unable to reach you sire" " fair point Niles, perhaps I'll message her and tell her I had a sudden need to travel and will be off the grid for a bit then hmm?" " perhaps that would be better but do it after we're sure she's in the air"I gave it roughly an hour or so before sending her a text message telling her I'd be out of reach for a while as I have a few business trips overseas to do with meets and greets, she has yet to respond which I'm sure it's because her phone is either off or on airplane mode until she lands.I go into the office to put measures in place for my absence, even if I'm gone I want business to continue running smoothly, I do have a few humans hired around the company just for the show and heck of it and to not arouse any suspicions of outsiders because even
AstridI can't believe the Elders summoned me back to the pack, they didn't really say what was the real reason for asking me to come back but I am more than happy and excited to return to see Tyler.I had to have Noah before I left because God's know when I'd be able to see him again if ever so I had to get my fill, I rinse myself off still feeling my p*ssy throbbing from his monster c*ck, mmm damn I'm gonna miss him, miss them, things would get so complicated once we get married.I know very well he has no feelings for me but he will not have a choice but to take me when the time comes to produce heirs, I know I will not be able to sneak away to see Noah or if he'd even see me once I take the throne so I may have to consider taking a lover on the side and ensure I do not get pregnant by any of them, as I am sure Tyler will have his own lover, despite his own words and respite he is a man after all and a man has needs he will one day cave and give in, if not to me someone else will
Perhaps I should go on a vacation on the earth side and spend that time here to re-establish order and truly get things back on track before all my plans go up in flames, I can not afford to keep losing my people like this, they’re so damn reckless, if they get caught and the Royals get wind of this then they will know we’re on the move again and will start trying to find out about us before we even have the chance to rise we will be uprooted and buried, I can not let that happen, I will need to find some excuse as to not bring Astrid with me and take some time here.I get up from my throne and walk out the door, heading to my chambers “Simon, I am going to return to the earth, I will return in a few days, I must make up a plan and excuse to go on vacation without Astrid and spend some time here, things are getting a bit out of hand”“Am excellent choice my liege, how many days will you be away for?”“Mmm, Four days at most, then when I am back prepare to do some inspection around th
I sit down clutching the bottle of pain killers, I am so damn angry that I just don’t know what to do with myself, that damn she wolf has messed not only with my son but also with me and my once happy life.I now have to sleep away from mate, he won’t look at me or even touch me until I apologize, he’s even reduced my spending money but thankfully he still has some consideration because others may have cut it off altogether to spite me and make me give in but I will never apologize, I have done nothing wrong, I raised my son well and took control of the household as the woman of the house, now Steven has taken the account books from me, his cards and even changed the code on the safe so I can’t go in as I please anymore and take money when I want to, it’s so damn infuriating that I Vinnia Tomas have been reduced to this because of a few words from a mere pup!I will get her for this, it doesn’t matter how long it takes me I will make that little b*tch suffer for this, mark my words!L
VinceI hear a knock at our door and my mom goes to answer, Dad is out at work, since that b*tch talked about us being solely dependant on him, a lot of things have changed around the house including the way he treats my mother.Don’t get me wrong I earn money by being a warrior, of course we’re paid but it’s just that, that money is mine that I work hard to earn, early morning and late night shifts so I don’t spend it on anything related to the home but now I have to, as my Dad says seeing as he’s been so easy going with my mom and me to the point that we disrespect and walk all over him I now have to pay bills and buy my own groceries and if I refuse I’d have to leave home but I’m not ready to be out on my own, not until I find my mate who can take care of me as well like my mom does.My father has moved my mothers things to one of our guest rooms and has forbidden her to return to their shared bedroom until she can humble herself and apologize sincerely, my mother is a very stubbor
“ I really can’t understand the way that woman thinks, I mean it’s practically her fault that Vince turned out the way he is, even I know he’s a jerk and I have asked Roho in the past if she wants me to talk to him about leaving her alone and she declined-oww what was that for?”“ For letting my baby girl suffer at the hands of a twerp”“Did you not hear me say she declined the assistance?”“It doesn’t matter, you could’ve done it without her knowing”“As if the jerk wouldn’t have told her about it after, and perhaps that would have made things worse for her because it seems both him and Vinna thinks we play favourites when it comes to her so that would have just solidified their beliefs”A thoughtful look crosses my mates face then she smiled “okay” was all she said as she separated herself from me and headed into the packhouse.NEXT MORNINGDawson“This way please Dawson”Rose ushers me along to the Lunas office and I knock “come in please” I push the door and enter “ahh Dawson good
Alpha TeejanAll of the pack is now assembled in our general meeting area which is the packs town square, I step onto the podium and make ready to deliver my announcement." Thank you all for coming out, now I will get straight to the meat of the matter as we really don't have any time to waste, as all of you or most of you would have seen that the Alpha King has been in our pack over night, the reason being he was following up with the incident that occurred here which left Warrior Ivo hurt, now after his team did their investigation you also would have seen quite the influx of Alphas onto the pack lands, that was for a meeting held by the King to make an announcement which I will now share with you "I glance around and notice Roho standing at the very back of the crowd " the Alpha King believes that the long talked about and even in some cases forgotten Reapers Nation is on the rise once again " I pause for a beat as gasps and numerous conversations erupts " okay, quiet down please
Not too long after Cory returns with Carson and holding the vial in a bag, I do love a good show and tell." Introduce yourself "" Hello I am Carson Wade, from Menah a warrior turned rogue "" Now tell them how you ended up in the Royal City "" I came here and attacked the pack and tried to abduct she wolves when the breech happened "" Then why are you standing here unchained and in good condition?! "" Calm yourself Harry, show them the vial Cory "Gasps are heard around the room " when we caught Carson, he threw this stuff up and once again became his normal self that you see here with no memory or recollection of what he had done, he even accused us of being kidnappers if you can imagine "" So what does this mean? "" It means that somewhere along the road he was caught and this stuff was put into him, although we're not sure what caused him to bring it out when he got caught and it didn't happen before, I'm not sure if it has something to do with being in the Royal City or ""
Elders" So what did he say Tom? "I am seething with anger when I enter our meeting room " the little bastard, feels he can do as he pleases and speak to me, to us as he likes just because he's the King "" Calm yourself Tom and refrain from saying such blasphemous words before someone hears you "" Aaron, you always remain passive when it comes to him but you should know what he said about your daughter " I walk over to where he is seated watching us " he said that if he doesn't find his mate by the agreed time and takes your daughter as his mate it would be in name alone and he will never lay with her to consummate their marriage and no matter how many years later, if he meets his mate he will dethrone her for his true mate "The bastard has the audacity to sigh " you guys were the ones to try and control him by means of Astrid and she is just too blind and stupid to see she is just a pawn being used by you who won't sacrifice your own daughters to a life of loneliness but used min
