Jumping the border. With her airbag having already been deployed, Colette takes the brunt of the car hitting the tree and blood starts to flow freely from her nose. She has also banged her forehead and the cut is quite deep. Shit, Mav is going to literally kill me. If and a big if, I make it out of this attack alive. She was already too injured for my liking and being, I hate to say it, only human…the warriors won’t be interested in her if I can lead them away. “Keep pressure on the nose and get word to Mav as soon as you can.” I say to her as I climb out of the car. “Aida!” She screams for me as I start to run through the woods, trying to force the warriors away from her. I don’t stop, even though they are all in wolf form and I am still in skin form. I curse at my wolf internally as I trip over a large fallen tree branch and land in a puddle of wet mud. Now what Aida? Just keep running. That was fine, until I came out of the wooded area and headed into a field. I could see th
The Mulder Pack Did I just hear him right? He wants me to join the Mulder pack? Does that mean my training is over? Have I pushed him just one time too far? “I don’t understand?” I respond quietly. “You being a rogue is clearly a safety issue.” Ricardo replies. “I’m sorry, your men were only following their wolf’s nature.” I apologies for yet again drama following me. “What happened with Nadine?” I ask, wondering what must have happened.“She killed her guard, not the one who marked her. Thankfully because he was able to help capture her.” “How?”“He marked her again, causing her body to collapse.” Ricardo updates me with a matter of fact tone. “Oh I didn’t know that could happen.” I mutter more to myself. “Where was she trying to go?” I ask but am met with silence. I meet Jake’s eyes in the rear view mirror who is nowhere near the cheeky Lycan I was enjoying getting to know. Okay let’s rephrase that. “How far did she get?”“You Aida, she was coming for you. She was armed wi
A Pack Princess’ pain. A good daughter would have stayed for the funeral, would have helped plan it. I am not a good daughter. But then he wasn’t a good father. “Oh right!” I respond, what else can I say? “Did you want to know when it is?” Andrei looks at me with a slight look of annoyance in his eyes. He was either annoyed of my lack of respect for his dead alpha, or that he was expected to travel around the packs. It was really a job for the beta. Which to me signals that all is now well between Henri and William. Perhaps Caleb has now stepped up and the four of them are living in the alpha house. I can see the garish welcome canvas print of Henri, Saskia, Skylar and Caleb in the main hallway. It will be bright and ugly, not Caleb though he looked good in any picture. A sharp pain hits me in my lower abdomen of thinking about Caleb, perhaps my heat was starting again. Great, I best speed up this rogue situation. “By all means tell me, but I won’t be attending.” “You won’t be abl
A Pack member again “Stop…please stop!” I scream out. “It will stop as soon as you pledge your allegiance.” Ricardo holds me tight, not giving me an inch of movement to attack. “I can’t…” I gasp out. The pain was excruciating, like someone was crushing my skull. “Just repeat after me…” Brennan is behind me, also caging me in. “I, Aida Sagar, accept Alpha Rory Mulder as my Alpha…” Brennan starts. “I…Aida Sagar, accept….” The pain now in my chest, catches my breath. “…Alpha Rory Mulder as my Alpha…”“And accept my place within the Mulder Wolf Pack.” Brennan finished. I’m wailing like a child as this point, the pain unbearable. Poor Rory looks heartbroken, like I am dying in front of his eyes. “Come on Aida, it’s nearly over.” Ricardo encourages me as he strokes the back on my head. “And accept my place within the Mulder Wolf Pack.” I push through the wall of pain. Knocking down each brick with my inner strength. “I, Alpha Rory Mulder accept your position within the Mulder Pac
Not the back door I lost, my wolf totally failing me. I was hardly any faster than a human. Then to finish it off I was informed that stage three training started in the Alpha’ office and I was cutting it fine to get back to the courtyard in time for 9am. After watching Rafe gloat about being the world’s best beta, I started to run back in the direction of the Alpha’s office. Having just eaten breakfast and then over exerted myself with the unnecessary run, it resulted in me vomiting in one of the male’s showers out in the courtyard. Rinsing the contents of my stomach away with the shower head, I quickly raced to Alpha’s office making it just in time for 9am. Strategy…seems like a lot of maps and planning to me. A bit boring for me. I was more of a do it now and worry about the consequences later she-wolf. Which when I mentioned this to Alpha, he chuckled claiming that is why I need to concentrate on stage three the most. That one day, I might be expected to send warriors into batt
Violet eyes. I was in a foul mood for the rest of the week. I still wasn’t allowed to use weapons in training and in fact, Ricardo was starting to pull my sparring matches. He claimed that Hong knew Lycan history more, being an alpha, and he didn’t need to accompany me as often in the library. So I basically slept, ate, read and repeat. I did squeeze in quite a few Rayna cuddles and being Friday I suggested that Rayna come visit the palace for a few hours in the evening so that Mav and Colette could go to the Lycan small high street for dinner. Today would have been Father’s funeral and I tried to keep busy, tried to seem fine. Knowing I was babysitting Rayna was all that kept me through the day. Will the decision not to have gone haunt me in years to come? I couldn’t go to my mothers, so why should I go to my fathers. I am a bad daughter. A good daughter would have gone. I bet Alpha Ray went. He’s probably told Henri I am now part of the Mulder pack. “Are you sure you’ll be okay
The history and a future. I had hoped that Lance would have returned at the weekend. I mean how long would it take to talk to a group of rebel rogues? My mood was only worsening. I felt like a new recruit again, missing my pack. Only this time I was part of a pack I haven’t had the chance to really bond with. I wondered if Ricardo would give me permission to visit the Mulder pack this coming weekend with Rafe. Probably not. He was acting very strange towards me. I wasn’t allowed to take part in any training and was now only on history lessons and strategy planning meetings. For being such an active she-wolf and used to pushing mine and others limits, I was struggling. I was back in the library, I didn’t even bother going into the training base for the morning report. If Alpha needs me, he’ll know where to find me! I didn’t really see the point in walking there to then only be told to come back to the library in the palace. I didn’t even bother with breakfast. My tummy was still tr
A day for surprises. The hospital had a back entrance…who knew? Well apparently Ricardo, Lorrel and Brennan. Of course they did.We were heading towards the maternity ward when Doctor Wessex and Felicity were on their morning rounds and spotted us before we headed upstairs. Of all the times for them to be walking along this corridor, I groan internally. “My Majesty, is everything okay?” Doctor Wessex stops in his tracks looking at us all grouped together. Felicity looks at me, an annoyance at the company I keep. Annoyance or jealousy, I’m not entirely sure at this moment. “Aida here has joined the Mulder pack. I just wanted to check her bloods, make sure she was accepting the new connection. Being a pack princess and all!” Brennan very smoothly says. There’s an awkward pause when Doctor Wessex takes me in and a small smile flickers on the side of his face. He also now knows. Felicity it would seem, isn’t as gifted and just looks between Doctor Wessex and Brennan to understand what
