SARAHEven though Jayson is dead serious about this wolf training thing, I can't help but have fun with it. I guess it's because I'm not actually going to die here.We sparred for the whole week. We redid the wolf battle. The defenders won this time. The invaders didn't stand a chance. We stopped them in their tracks.Friday morning was agility. Jayson and the other Alphas led us into the woods.We were running in a pack. Through the rough terrain of the forest. It was just supposed to be another training exercise. Little did we know it would turn out to be a trial run for what's to come.As we ran through creeks, over rocks and around trees, we had no idea we were being watched.I was sticking close to Ash, when I caught a scent. My wolf stopped and her ears perked.With the pack almost out of sight up ahead, I took a couple of steps toward the scent.My eyes focused. My ears heard the faint sound of panting.The ground vibrated under my paws. My wolf trained her sight on a spot betw
JAYSON I spent almost all night with the guys in my office. Pouring through videos and reports. Trying to figure out how ten rogues got passed our security. Ten rogues. Just ten left eleven injured, two severely and several traumatized. Just ten. What's a hundred going to do? Although we managed to kill six of them, I'm left wondering if this is still a good idea. What if the fight is worse? What if we lose? I'm sitting in my chair behind my desk. Asking myself these questions as the guys argue about what to do. "I say, we gather those who want to go, and search these fuckers out! Drag their asses back here and beat the fucking answers out of them!" Luke slammed his large fist on the conference table. Knocking me out of my thoughts. I shook my head. "We have no idea where to even look, Luke." He leaned on the conference table. "We're fucking wolves, Jay! What?! Is your fucking nose broken?!" I stood and glared. "No, but yours is going to be if you don't fucking cool it." He c
JAYSONAfter days of searching, Luke came back empty handed. Rick, the office guy, came back with a general description of almost every male here. We had nothing.Cass repaired the fencing and we had no choice, but to continue as business as usual.Some of the kids were still clearly apprehensive about going anywhere near the woods on the property. Not wanting to be surprised again. I had to reassure them, that it won't happen again. And it won't because Cass had a team go out and install a major back up power supply to the fences that can only be controlled from my office. This way, if anyone does decide to cut the wires to the fence, the backup kicks in at ten times the normal voltage. Giving the asshole a nice jolt. We also installed more trips for the perimeter alarms and were clearing out all the spots that are hard to see. It's a major job, but these kids have become my life and I'll be damned if anyone hurts my kids.My report was very general in nature. I purposely left it vag
SARAHI don't know what to feel anymore. I'm so broken. The love of my life is gone and by the time I find how he really feels, he drives out of my life forever. What am I supposed to do now?I lay on my bed, sobbing. I didn't hear Ash and Shane come in. "Sarah?" Shane said softly."Oh, girl." Ash walked over and tugged me up into her arms."I can't.... I can't" I cried into her shoulder. She rocked me. Shane sat on the other side of me rubbing my back. "You'll get through this, sis. We'll help you."I let go of Ash and grabbed for Shane. "It hurts...." I sobbed.He rubbed my back more. "I know. It will for a while. But, Sarah. Jay wants you to be strong now, ok? Our pack needs us. Listen...." he pushed me back. "I just got off the phone with mom and dad. They're moving everyone out. The place is a ghost town."I wiped my face. "Where did they go?" I choked.He looked into my eyes, wiping some tears. "I don't know. They aren't telling anyone so the rogues don't find them. Mom and dad
JAYSON Left. Right Right. Right. Left. I punch the bag with all the force I can muster. The more I punch, the angrier I feel. "Humph........Humph.......Hmmmuph" My gloves slam into the bag. One after the other I punch faster and faster. Stronger and stronger. "Humph. Humph. Humph. Humph." My exhales turn into screams and growls as I punch the shit out of the bag. It swings violently as I continue to assault it with everything I have. Sweat flies off me. Pouring off my back. I just keep punching. Punching the life out of my pain. Faster and faster. Hoping to out punch it but I can't. My arms are on fire. I feel warm wet in my gloves. I grab the bag to stop it from swinging. Putting my head on it, whining and breathing heavy as I fight the tears, I thought I didn't have left. Every day since I left, I do this. I'm not sleeping because I keep thinking Sarah is with me. Waking me up. I've tried everything. Nothing is appeasing the wolf inside. He's been howling at me. Begging me t
SARAHDo you know what it takes to get kicked out of here?.......Neither do I. I've been trying for a damn week and this Riker chick will not budge.I've purposely skipped practice. I walked off in the middle of practice. I've even flooded the locker room.... TWICE!I camped, literally camped out, on the roof of the dorm for a day and a half. Luke had to drag my sorry but down.All Anna Riker does is find new ways to discipline me.I'm currently in her office for starting a fight in the hallway after Mindy trashed talked Jayson to me. Yeah, I punched her lights out. I'm on edge as it is and she bashes the man I'm in love with. I don't think so.So, I'm slumped in her chair with my teenage angst on full display. She literally looks at me and says, "I'm going to have to inform your parents about this, Sarah."I snort. "Great. If or when you find out where the fuck they are, let me know. Because I'd really like to talk to them"She looked at my file and a look of regret crosses her face.
JAYSON I stand in front of the office. Not wanting to knock. I raise my hand and rap on the wooden door. "Come." I hear from inside. Before I open it, I sneer at the name plate. 'Alpha Blake' it reads. I scoff and turn the knob. I can't believe I have to take orders from this douche. "Beta Duke. I was expecting you. Please. Sit." I look around the large office. The huge conference table. The book shelves. The carved oak desks. I move in front of the oak arm chair in front his desk. He's grinning. "Admiring the office, huh? My dad helped. Honestly, it's a bit much for my taste." He sits back and puts his hands behind his head. "Seems fitting." I fake a smile. "So. Jay. How are you? It's been a while. We haven't had time to catch up. I've been so busy running my pack, the council. And of course, Anna. Man, she drives me crazy. I swear." He chuckles. "Drink?" I can feel the vein in my neck throbbing. I swear this office is way too small for this guy's fucking head. "Please." I
SARAH"Ok. Next group. Come on. Quiet. Guys hurry." We lead the groups of twenty-five at a time across the field. To the rigged fence. "Follow Sam. He'll get your packs. Hurry." We all whispered as we steal into the night. Off to save Black Lake. Off to save the alliance. Bringing the fight to the rogues was our best plan until the unit destroyed everything. I'm making it my business to show them just how bad they fucked up.As kids disappear into the trees, Shane runs up, panting. "Thats it.""Everyone?" I ask.He nods. "Yeah." he chuckles. "Buildings empty." I laugh under my breath. "Riker's going to be pissed."Shane laughs. "Let's go."We join the group. A hundred heads looking at us. I stand in front. "Thank you, guys. Really. This was Jayson's plan. We promised him we would fight and damn it, we are. We're not letting these animals threaten our homes. We're taking care of this our way and no one is going to stop us."Hushed cheers came from the crowd. "Does everyone have a pack?
