I knelt upon the floor in one of the worn old border control shelters, looking up at a trembling Mari. Though, on this occasion, I think she had every reason to be trembling. The poor girl was bleeding, and her leg was a fucking mess. I was an Alpha, and in m time as such, and even prior to that, I had seen some battles. One of which had lost me my fated mate. And battles brought war wounds. Injuries. The injury Mari had sustained was up there with some of the worst. Her leg was a mangled mess, though I have to admit, it looked worse on her wolf...

Finding her that far out when I had gone to search for her gave one indication, and one indication only. The girl was fleeing. And, the way her eyes were wide at my words when I suggested such, like she did not know how to answer me told me I was correct. But her answer seemed a little irrelevant as I looked down towards her leg and the blood seeping from it had already come through the dressing I had placed around it. The wounds w

  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?   Chapter 112 - Carter

    I paced the kitchen as I brewed the fresh coffee. My mind was awash with thoughts of the conversation I had just had with Mari. Of the sight of seeing her having a nightmare, and how vulnerable she looked. And, the worst thing of all... the feeling of longing as I released her from my embrace. The sense of loss as I craved the heat of her body against mine. Draven was once more pushed forward. His presence looming beneath my skin, though this time not in panic. He was curious about my reaction to how I felt. Though, truthfully, so was I…I did all that I could to focus on the task in hand, moving the mugs from the mug tree to the counterside. While desperately attempting to fill my mind with other thoughts. "Emails. Training. Discuss updates with Eldermoon pack. Call my parents. Speak to Hudson about how the pack is running..." I began to list the things I planned to do in the coming days, but thoughts of Mari continued to break through, and I released a heavy, frustra

    Having the girl within my home and knowing she would be staying felt unnatural. This place had become my home. Mine. My safe haven. The place I escaped to. Even my friends rarely come over now, more often opting for their homes or the lounge of the pack house if we were hanging out. But hearing the doctor speak of Mari, I knew I had to look after her. Who the hell else did she have here? Not to mention my wolf was pestering the shit out of me to bring her here…“Lounge is through there, go sit yourself down.” I all but ordered her as we walked into the open hallway, and motioning toward the doorway of my large open-plan living space. “I will grab you a drink.”“Thank you.” Her voice was barely a whisper, and Draven pushed forward with almost panicked curiosity. The way his presence rippled beneath my skin with an anxious unease made me feel almost nauseous. I was used to his presence, of course I was, but this was something else.‘Does she sound weak again to you?’ He demanded. ‘Do yo

    The doctor had checked me over so many damn times I was getting sick of the sight of him. But anytime I so much as winced in pain, Alpha Carter would call for him, and he would come rushing back into my room. That same warm smile upon his face, and a look of determination that he was there to care for me and ensure that I was okay. I knew he meant well, as did Alpha Carter, but I had had enough of the both of them. Yet neither one seemed willing to leave me alone.I had no clue how long I had remained in the hospital. Nor what the time was, as the room I was within had no window, and the light upon the ceiling was still as bright as it had been the moment I had woken. Clearly, the doctors did not care for your eyes while you recovered from your injuries. I truly wished that they did, because my poor eyes needed to rest. My whole body needed to rest. Sleep was what I needed. And, while I tried desperately to fall asleep, all I could hear was the pacing footsteps of Alpha Carte

    My heart pounded within my chest at the slightest of touch she placed upon my chest, and Draven made a strange sound somewhere between a snarl and a purr. A sound I had not heard since my mate had been around. No. This was not happening. My wolf was becoming attached to a she-wolf that was nothing to us...My world continued to feel like it collapsed in upon itself, as Mari’s words echoed within my mind. She had shocked me. That was not how the girl spoke. But the slightly altered tone of her voice told me this was not her. I was near certain of that. This was her fiery little fucker of a wolf. The brave little Beta wolf that she had so desperately needed as she grew up. The wolf that had been held back by the wolfsbane. The wolf she needed to protect her. To make her strong. Seemed she was everything Mari was not. And the little firecracker had seemingly taken a liking to me.“Mari.” I warned again, my tone sharp in hope it would snap her into realit

  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?   Chapter 108 - Mari

    I had no sense of time nor space. I did not know where I was. Or what had happened. My eyes fluttered open. My body felt like it had been run over by a truck. And that they had reversed right back over me to give it another go. Battered and bruised was an understatement, that was for sure. I ached so badly, yet truthfully, I had no clue as to how that had happened. The lights of the room where I lay were beyond bright, and as my eyes settled upon the man in front of me, I flinched. I did not recognize him. Only reinforcing the fact I did not know where I was.“Mari?” His voice seemed kind. Warm. Friendly. And he knew my name... But I recalled very little. Other than the meeting…My mind flitted through the occurrences of the day in a bid to establish how I had found myself here. Though I had yet to establish where here even was. Had I been captured? Kidnapped? Or had I been caught up in the fight that had taken off? Was that what had happened? Was th

  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?   Chapter 107 - Carter

    I was pushed to wait within the hallways of my own pack hospital. Wait while they treated Mari. Hudson by my side. I paced the long hallways while my friend threw incessant questions in my direction. Further frustrating me at the inconvenience of being left out in the hallway. I wanted to know if she was okay. Needed to know that the doctors could save her. But there was nothing but silence any time I mindlinked the doctors, and the door to the room they had taken her into remained closed...“You and her good now?” Hudson asked for the fourth or fifth time. I provided him with yet another cold glare.“What does it matter?” I snapped, giving into his demands and actually answering him this time. “I just need to know she is okay. I can't have her hurt while in our care.”Hudson chuckled. “Is that all?”I rolled my eyes, already sick of where the conversation was going. I should have remained silent, and opted
