It was some hours passed midday and Aurora called a gathering to her acquaintance outside the pack building to address them. They all assembled in a well-arranged consecutive line with vast poses making the hundredth warriors look coordinated due to how they practiced their tradition in the Lock Hearts pack. Lock Hearts pack was one of the most effective packs in Austin, Texas. It had an enormous number of shifters of both adult wolves and pups. They were up to three hundred and they were ruled peacefully by their powerful and caring Alpha Cowell with his companions including Aurora, the brave commander of the pack fighters.Even when Aurora was looking minor, the toughest wolves and pups honoured her as their commander. They all hearkened to her and no one dared to defy their duties because she was a female wolf. As she ascended onto the altar located at the front of the pack building where decrees were made and given, instruments and chorus was played to give her a birthday ceremo
Pack members began to troop into the pack Academy. The Academy, located in the middle of the woods, was the biggest building compared to the packed building where the Alpha stays. It was built for the activities being held. It was a place where wolves are trained, especially the pups. They were taught in the academy in groups how to control their wolf and how to do the combat fight when they can't shift, maybe due to how weak their wolves are. The teaching was always section by section. Adults and pups have different stages they learn from before prompting to the next stage. Then, after the teaching, everyone would gather and talk about what they'd been taught. Most times, training takes place in the night for those who need to go for a run or the night watch.The Alpha King Cowell had built the Academy making the pack a very special one different from other packs and members of the pack had fallen in love with his intelligence. Occasionally, he visits the Academy, during a full moo
"I'm Aurora." She introduced herself to Sage through the mind link as they strolled side by side in the woods. After Sage has introduced himself, Aurora calmed her nerves seeing that he wasn't there to harm her. Her anger had turned to warmth, seeing how protective he could be. "You're the pack fighter, I know you." He implied and she stopped on her track which he also did. Her wolf turned to him, wiggling her tail in anxiety. "How come I don't know you and you're a pack member?" She asserted, using her eyes to roam over his brown wolf. He looked handsome with a tall and muscular figure in his wolf form and she imagined how he would be in his human body. She felt goosebumps building beneath her furs."You don't know everyone in the pack, do you?" Sage inquired and started to walk away.Aurora fumed when she saw he wasn't giving her the respect she deserved. She was a leader and he was walking away from her not telling her who he was and why he had approached her.She scurried after
Aurora's alarm rang too early for her to wake up. It was as if she never slept a second after she had gone to bed the other night. She felt weak and exhausted. She desired to get back to bed but she couldn't. She had to be at the pack building where the rogues would be given their final judgement. She used her thumb to rub her dark circles, staring at herself inside the five feet mirror in her washroom.After her bath, she brought out another pair of her uniform to wear. Satisfied with her appearance, she grabbed her spec and wore it properly furthermore, striding out of her bedroom down to the sitting room.She cringed watching her grandmother dance to the tune of the music that was played from a stereo in the sitting room. She was with a pack of chocolate candy, munching them with excitement. Sora loved chocolate and after so many days of missing it, she finally got a chance to go out to town to get one. Most times she was busy going out and shopping, she does almost everything for
"How dare you, Sage?!" Beta Craig cringes at him, standing up from his seat, his gaze on Sage who was on the terrace of the hall, watching them. Everyone turned their attention and gasped at what they saw, the Beta's son? An uproar was about to start but Beta Craig's statement stopped them. "How dare you impede the king's order?!" He questioned Sage again.Moreover, Sage was already climbing down the stairs towards the King and his associates. When he reached the front of the throne, he pushed his knees down to the altar and bent his head, ready to seek forgiveness. "I'm sorry, King Alpha, I'm so sorry." He pleaded and waited for the King to declare him up.Meanwhile, Aurora stared shockingly at Sage. How could he stop the King's order? The worst part of it for her was sniffling the same aura she had smelled the other night. Was he the same wolf she had a chat with? The wolf that tamed her? What was he doing in the hall? Was he serious when he meant he lived in the Prime region? But w
"You're welcome to the pack, Sage." The head of Gamma wolves greeted him after shifters had gathered to welcome him. "It's an honour to have you here again." The Gamma added. "Thank you, Rae." Sage appreciated and turned to face Aurora who nudged him to get on the altar since everyone was waiting for him to climb the altar. The crowd screeched at his appearance, and after then they made a bow to him. He was previously the leader of the pack fighters and the King's right-hand man before he went out of the pack. While he was still at the pack, he ruled the pack fighters mightily and they had all adorned him until he left. Now that he was back, they loved him more.After some introduction to those who didn't remember him like Aurora, he thanked them for their warm welcome and the pleasant greeting came to an end. He promised them he would always be there whenever they needed him and the crowd departed happily with his vibrant speech to them.Aurora scoffed when Sage walked over to wher
The drive was hasty but smooth until the car plunged on a hook and the wheel became plastered. Sage who had driven at a normal speed was able to control the brake but missed his feet on the clutch and the car stumbled on a speed hump, making the vehicle jump from the ground, hitting the ground again before stopping on its track."What are you driving?!" Aurora squealed when she finally got herself to breathe. She swept her head to Sage who was already cursing the hook that had twitched his car wheel. He didn't say anything and unlocked his car to go out, Aurora doing the same with rage. This was the reason she should have taken her car instead of joining Sage."What's wrong?" She asked and tilted her hair to the back of her ear to avoid the wind blowing it over to her face. "What you desire," Sage answered with a serious tone. He hated the fact that his car had to stop when he was having a good time with Aurora thinking she might want to find another transport and leave him behind."
Aurora smelled Fennick the moment he arrived at her cottage. She quickly hid the novel she was reading under her pillow and rumbled her duvet to cover herself up. She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, shutting her mind so he wouldn't sense that she wasn't sleeping. The expected knock came on her door but she didn't dare to answer it. She knew it was him and she wasn't ready to forgive yet. The knock came in again but she still didn't respond to it praying for him to leave.However, Fennick wasn't ready to leave. He hasn't seen her since the other night and she won't let him in. He knew she must have shut him away from her thoughts because that was what she always does when it comes to their arguing.He tried pushing the door open and thankfully for him, Aurora has forgotten to lock it. He smiled, opened the door for him to enter and walked in, closing the door behind him. His gaze fell upon her bed, where she was sleeping and he had no choice but to giggle.Aurora was smart but
