I stripped off my clothes when I thought I was far enough from her and shifted into my wolf form, without a look back I took off running between the trees.
Why does it feel like no matter what I do, it’s always a mistake, someone always gets hurt.
Today’s the day.I slipped on my cerise pink hoodie and threw my hair up in a messy bun. The dread set in deeper as I caught sight of the scene outside the pack house.
“What the…” I trailed off, dumbfounded by the sight before me.“Surprise!” Devin cheered; I looked up at him unable to mask my shock and confusion.
“Why so serious Alpha Allison Trust Wells?” Devin teased, but the concern was evident in his voice, I found that adorable.“Nothing major Alpha Devin Summers.” I spun around and threw my arms around his neck, sending him a wicked smile. Devin placed his hands on my waist and pulled me closer; the teasing look was now replaced by an apprehensive
“Allie cat!” Devin groaned from his position at the opposite end of my desk.“What, Devin?” I sighed, looking up from the stack of application forms I was sorting through.
“Allison, may I have a word with you?” Yasmin’s voice dragged my attention away from Peyton and Dristan’s pointless argument.“Sure.” I turned to follow her away from the crowd. Today was the last day the Crescent Moon Pack would spend with us, their training was finally complete and they were ready to lead their pack.
“Allison, can you please get off the table?” Devin raised an eyebrow at me.“Why should I? Tomorrow is our wedding and here you are doing pack work.” I asked, pulling my face in disgust.“Babe…” Devin stood up and pulled me closer to the edge of the table so that he could put his arms around my waist. “That’s exactly why i’m trying to get everything finished now, I am trying to make sure that I’m ahead with my work so that Hunter doesn’t have a hard time and I get to spend all my time with you, without any disturbance for the next week.” He explained slowly.“You’re taking a week off, to spend time with me?” My eyes grew wide in awe. “Of course, my darling.” I leaned forward and placed a sweet kiss on his lips.“Okay, you can do your work in peace now.” I grinned and jumped off the table.“Wait, don’t you have anything to finish up before tomorrow?” Devin frowned, stopping me from exiting the office. “No, because i know how to delegate.” I grinned and walked out, leaving him s
“Everybody out.” I called as we stepped into the room, I could feel the anger still coursing through my veins, but I simultaneously felt hopeless.“Alphas.” Connor greeted as he passed and was followed by the rest of the group that had gathered in Christopher’s infirmary room.I approached his bed and took a seat beside Taylor who looked worried by what was about to come, while Devin paced at the foot of the bed, looking deep in thought.“How are you feeling?” I started.“Weak, but okay.” He answered nervously.“Look Chris, what happened today is unacceptable. I understand that it’s something that you have little to no control over, but we need to find a permanent solution for this, before anyone else gets hurt.” I explained gravely.“I understand, that’s why I think it’s best if I leave the pack.” Taylor gasped and sprang onto her feet in shock.“You can’t do that!” She cried, tears already gathering in her eyes. “Taylor, calm down and let’s talk about this.” I reasoned and t
I smoothed the invisible wrinkles on the lilac and white A-line wedding dress.“Will stop that, you’re going to crease it if you keep doing that.” My mom scowled in a very unlike her tone. “I’m nervous.” I shot back and she sighed.“About what honey? You are marrying a man you have been in love with practically your whole life and are fated by Mother Selene to be with. You guys have been through thick and thin in the past year and come out so strong together, it can only get better from here.” She soothed, trying to calm me down from my panic.“I just- I don’t know…” I sighed, is this what cold feet feels like? “Is it the rejection on your mind?” my eyes fell, not wanting to admit that I hardly slept last night as the scene kept replaying in my mind. “Oh Allison.” She pulled me into a hug. “I don’t know what’s wrong with me, mom.” I mumbled into her shoulder, feeling annoyed with myself.“There’s nothing wrong with you darling, you’re going to go out there today as a beauti
