The Heir's Child Finding Rowan
Back at the Pack...Lyall's POV"River, are you absolutely sure she never mentioned wanting to leave?" I ask for what has to be the tenth time.River sighs and rubs both hands over her face."Lyall..."Her voice is gentle instead of annoyed."You know Rowan.""I do.""Then you know we all had our lives planned."She gestures around the theatre room."Here."A pause."Together."She looks at each of us in turn."You.""Me.""Mel.""Troy."She smiles sadly."We've been talking about college together since we were kids."I lower my eyes.She isn't wrong.Every conversation about the future had always ended the same way.We'd graduate.Go to college.Come home during breaks.Eventually find our mates.Raise families close enough that our children would grow up together.None of us had ever imagined anything different.Least of all Rowan."I still don't understand," River whispers."Neither do I."Mel leans back in his chair with a thoughtful look."Actually..."We all turn toward him."We
The Heir's Child Towns
Making the decision to settle somewhere that received snow had somehow been easier than deciding where I actually wanted to live.Choosing a direction was one thing.Choosing a future was something entirely different.Every town we passed felt like it came with a thousand questions.Would it be safe?Would people accept me?Would another pack discover I was a rogue?Would my pup have friends?Would we always have to keep running?The longer I stared at maps, the more impossible the decision became.When I admitted to Raven that I wanted to stay as far away from werewolf packs as possible, she hadn't looked surprised.Not even a little.Instead, she'd simply nodded as if she had expected that answer all along.It wasn't that I hated my own kind.Far from it.I loved my pack.I loved the traditions.The celebrations beneath the full moon.Training beside my friends.Running through the forests together until dawn.Those memories would always be part of me.But I wasn't just another rogu
The Heir's Child Snow Decisions
After a few more days of letting a simple coin decide our future, I finally refuse to flip it again.Every toss seems to carry us farther north.Farther away from everything I have ever known.Farther away from Lyall.Farther away from my family.Closer to snow.Closer to freezing winters.Closer to a life that feels less and less like my own."Absolutely not," I declare, folding my arms across my chest as Raven digs through the cup holder for the worn silver coin. "I'm done."Raven pauses halfway through pulling it out and slowly raises an eyebrow."Done with what?""The coin.""The coin?" she repeats, looking personally offended."Yes, the coin! Every single time you flip it, we somehow end up going farther north."She glances dramatically out the windshield."I don't see the problem.""The problem," I say, pointing toward the road ahead, "is that north equals snow.""It does.""Snow equals cold.""It generally does.""Cold is terrible."She bursts into laughter."You've never even
The Heir's Child Lyall POV
Back at the Pack House...Lyall's POV"You know her better than anyone. Where would she go?" my dad asks, breaking the heavy silence hanging over the room.I rake both hands through my hair for what has to be the hundredth time today."How am I supposed to know?" I snap."She has never wanted to leave the pack before. We've never talked about it. Not once. She has always loved it here."Or...At least I thought she did.The thought twists like a knife in my chest.Apparently I never knew Rowan as well as I believed."Apparently she wasn't happy here," my mother says quietly. "There has to be a reason she left."I let out a bitter laugh."You think I don't know that?"She reaches toward me, trying to rub my back like she did when I was little.I step away before she can touch me.Right now, comfort feels wrong.Rowan is out there somewhere.Alone.Pregnant.Probably terrified.While I'm standing here doing absolutely nothing.I continue pacing.Every few steps I stop, trying to force m
The Heir's Child Little Peanut
First, we traveled east for a full day. We only stopped to eat, use the restroom, and fuel up. Other than that, Raven drove almost nonstop.Every mile that put more distance between me and the pack made my chest ache a little more.I tried not to think about what Lyall was doing right now.Whether River had started crying yet.Whether Mel was angry.Whether Troy blamed himself again.Most of all, I tried not to imagine Lyall walking into the room I was supposed to be sleeping in and finding nothing but an empty wheelchair.The thought alone made my eyes sting.I turned my face toward the passenger window before Raven could notice."I told you not to think too much," Raven said quietly, never taking her eyes off the road."I wasn't."She gave me a knowing look."You were."I sighed."I miss them already.""I know."Neither of us spoke again until we pulled into a small gas station nearly two hundred miles from home.As soon as I tried climbing out of the car, my legs trembled violently
The Heir's Child Revelations
"So, where are we going then?" I ask after a while.Raven smirks at me before holding up a coin for me to see."I thought that we would let fate decide." She says."Are you serious right now? We are going to choose where we are going based on a coin flip?" I ask incredulously."Of course. You wanted to be untraceable. This is going to be the trick. Once we get farther away we can start making our own decisions again." She tells me with that same smirk. She does have a fair point there. With Lyall knowing me as well as he does, it would be too easy for him to find me this close to the pack. I will just have to let her do her thing and hope that it works out for us."Can you promise me, no snow though?" I ask with a shudder.Personally, I have never seen snow before but I know that as a wolf, we love the sunshine. Laying in the sun is one of the most relaxing feelings ever. If I have to go somewhere cold, I do not know how well I will adapt."Hey, fate is deciding. If you have a proble
The Heir's Child Loneliness
The next few days passed with little to no excitement.At first, I told myself that was a good thing. Recovery was supposed to be boring. Recovery was supposed to mean resting, sleeping, and gradually feeling stronger.Instead, I felt trapped.My parents had begun avoiding me as though I carried so
The Heir's Child Dinner Plans
By the time my dad arrived to pick me up, my appointment was already finished.My prescription sat in a small paper bag on my lap while I waited in a wheelchair near the front entrance of the hospital.The doctor must have called him while I was picking up my medication because I hadn't been waitin
The Heir's Child Appointment
"Rowan, it's good to see you again. How are you feeling today?"The doctor's warm voice pulled me from my thoughts as she stepped into the room.Seeing her stirred a confusing mixture of emotions inside me.Part of me was grateful.She had been honest with me when nobody else would.She had answere
The Heir's Child Check Up Time
By the next morning, I was almost embarrassingly excited at the prospect of leaving the house.Granted, my grand adventure consisted of a trip to the pack hospital and then straight back home again, but after spending an entire day trapped in my room, it felt like freedom.My fears about the dreams
