As Safire got to the lake she laid down next to a big tree and let Kaya take control over her body and mind.
"You really needed that run didn't you Saf?" I say as I stretch my bones."We both needed it." Saf said as I pulled the clothes from the backpack and started dressing."So what is our plan, we can't hide forever they are going to trace us eventually?""I need answers, but I also need time to take this in." I say as I sit down under the tree."I can sense you are angry, but it doesn't make you love them any less." "Of course I'm angry, they lied to me my whole life. And yes I know what you are going to say, they love me like their own but that is not in discussion here. Trust is." I say with frustration."And the fact that Jake loves you." Saf so kindly reminded me."Don't ok, just don't go there.""I told you he gave me a weird vibe."Saf hummed in my head."He is my brother, I will never be able to see him as anything else. Honestly, I dont know how to even look at him anymore." I say."Well he is not the only one who is going to look for you, Atlas should have woken up by now." I hate the way she purres his name."Our Luna should keep him enough occupied, and besides she gave me her word she wouldn't tell him where to find me." "He is our soulmate, once awakened a connection like that it only grows stronger." Saf said convinced."He is not our soulmate, I don't feel connected to him." I said annoyed."I don't understand why you don't feel it, but I... the more the time passes and the further we go, I feel a burn around my heart. I never felt that before." Saf confessed."I thought you said you couldn't reach him.""I can't, and for some reason it hurts. But it also makes me believe he will search every corner of every forest until he finds you."I look up into the forest on the other side of the lake."The forest," I say."What about it.""Jack said they found me in the forest as a baby Saf. Someone abandoned me in the forest. They left me to die."I say as tears form in my eyes."You don't know that, maybe someone lost you." Saf said to console me."What, someone went on a picnic and forgot about me." I say sarcastically."Don't think about it now, we come here to distract ourselves. Go for a swim, it will help you clear your head." Saf said to me and I listened.I swam for the entire afternoon, I got out of the lake just before the night fell to draw up a fire. Even though I hadn't eaten in the whole day it didn't bother me, I fell asleep next to the fire unsure of what will be tomorrow. The feeling of the sun on my face woke me up, but also the sound of car tires on the stone path."Someone is coming." I said to Saf as I got up."I know the sound of that engine, it's your dad's truck. The other three I don't know." Saf said.As the truck came into vision I saw it was Jack behind the wheel. I took my backpack on my back as he came out of the truck."I don't want to talk to you." I say to Jack."I know you are not ready and I'm not here because of that Kaya. You need to leave, he sent for you." He said urgently."Who?"I asked as three SUVs approached us."The future Alpha. They came yesterday, they have orders to take you. Forcefully if necessary. I traced you so I could warn you." Jack said."What you did was lead them right to me." I say as several men descend from the SUV's. The front man is a bit shorter than the rest but fairly built. He walked up to me as Jack took a stand in front of me."Oh don't be ridiculous," I say as I go in front of him."Kaya Knight, I have orders to bring you to the pack's mansion." The man spoke."Who's orders?" I ask as if I don't already know."Atlas Stryker, our future Alpha." He said as he snapped his fingers and his man came for me.The first guy grabbed my hand and tried to pull me but I twisted his arm, pulled his jacket over his head, and used my foot to send him flying into the other guy."There is no need for you to put your hands on me, I can walk." I said as I passed him and entered the SUV."I told you so." Saf said."Oh shut up.""What is it with you?" I asked Saf because I could feel her getting more and more jumpy in my head."Nothing, I just wonder how is this conversation gonna go down."Uhh I so do not need this right now."I mean you did drugged your future Alpha, not to mention our soulmate."I don't know how I feel about the fact that Saf already accepted Atlas's wolf as her soulmate, it can't be. Not while I don't feel the same for Atlas. She maybe hasn't said it out loud but I can feel it, the closer we are to him the more excited she gets."I would appreciate it if you could calm down so that I at least have my thoughts in order." I say as the car pulls over. When I got out of the car Jeffery was waiting for me once again."Miss Knight, we were awaiting you. Please follow me."Jeffrey said as he proceeded to walk in front of me. He led me into their office once again where I saw our Luna Victoria standing by the window. As I stepped in Jeffrey closed the door behind me."Miss Knight, I have to say I di
While a storm was at it's peak, and the rivers were going wild, the trees snapping and clouds were covering all the stars, deep into the forest, lost in the dark was a cabin. While from the outside it would appear to be abandoned in this night of full darkness, destiny was unraveling itself. Throw the hall, in a small room, with nothing but candlelight a baby was being born.Only thing to be heard were muffled screams and the sound of shoes stamping on the wooden floor, the woman managed to remove the rag from her mouth and cried out, "I can't do it anymore! Help me!" She pleaded with the midwife. The midwife glanced at the woman standing nearby, who simply shook her head and sat down on the bed. With a stern expression, she turned to the woman in agony and said, "You got yourself into this mess, now you have to get yourself out of it." But then, the midwife's demeanor softened slightly as she got up from the bed and reassured the woman, "Just one more push, a big one, and it will be o
"Our Luna would love a word with you, Kaya." Said the man as my mom and dad stood up from the table while Jack placed himself between the man and me. "What is this in regards to?" Asked Jack. "It's a private matter, Miss Kaya let's get going." "I'll come with you." Jack said. "That won't be necessary, it was instructed for her to come alone." Jack and dad were about to protest but I cut them off. "It's fine,I'll be back in no time." Right? I thought to myself as I slipped my phone in my back pocket.As I was going I squeezed my parents hands. As I came outside I saw 3 big black SUV cars, our royals really liked to travel in stile. "Over here, Miss Kaya." The man said as he oped the door for me.I don't like when people take away my control. "Thats ok, I'll follow you in my jeep." The man simply closed the door and looked at the other man before getting in the car. Seeing the mark on their necks, the hanging half moon I suspected they were mind linking eachother.That was the p
"My soulmate."I'm sorry what?"W..Wh...What?" Is all I managed to say. To say I was shocked was an understatement.But he just keeped looking at me like I was miracle happening before his eyes,his hands holding my face so tenderly."You are my soulmate." Atlas said again."Hello, earth to Kaya!" Yelled Saf in my mind knocking me back to my senses.This is not happening, he's lying.I don't feel anything. If he were truly my soulmate I would feel the bond."Yeah nice try buddy."I said as I moved his hands from my face and took a step back. His hands fell to his sides , confusion all over his face."You don't feel this?" He asked me."Look, your little trick could work on a human but obviously not on a she wolf.""This is not a trick." He says as he tries to touch my hand again but I take another step back. To that I hear him growl."Hey girl this round is on you." Said the girl as she passed me a cocktail."All rounds are on me." Atlas said as he waved to the bartender.The girls seemed
"We should really stop at the bakery first, you are starving," Saf said as my stomach growled."You are right besides, Mom and Dad are already there. Knowing them, this particular assignment has them worried."As I arrived I went in through the backdoor. The radio as always was blasting the music. Eye of the tiger. Dad's favorite.I grabbed the chocolate croissant from the tray when I realized most of the trays here were full. And that is odd, with our sales dad normally runs up and down exchanging trays. "I hear something," Saf said.I moved further in, the office door was slightly ajar. Jace was in there with Dad."Have you heard from her?" Jack asked."I'm sure she's alright Jack." "I should have gone with her.""Jack the order was clear, she had to go alone." Dad insisted."Screw that." Jack cursed."It's getting harder for you to control it, isn't it?" Dad said as he put his hand on his shoulder. Jack just looked at his feet clenching his fists."You know it's impossible my boy
