The delicate little she-wolf assigned to take care of us seemed like she was a nervous little thing. On edge. It it quite peculiar. Watching her near walk into at least three different doors and walls on the walk to her Alpha’s office alone was quite intriguing. As wolves we were meant to have a decent sense of direction, but this young thing seemed to lack any of that. In fact I was certain she couldn't find herself when looking in a mirror…

I knew I was not the only one noticing her strange behaviour because the chuckles of amusement from my Beta and Gamma who were walking alongside me were far from discreet. The flushed colour upon Mari's cheeks told me that she had heard them too. Not that it was my issue. If she did not wish to be embarassed, then I suggest she learn how to act like a normal person when in company.

She had managed to get us to her Alpha in one piece, which was becoming suprising in itself, and also not filling me with much hope for the remainder of our visit, con

  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?   Chapter 75 - Carter

    Arriving back to my pack filled me with that same sense of relief it always did. Ever since I had lost Gabrielle home was my safe haven. A place I did not like to leave. Leaving home meant I lost the lingering sense of tiny connection that remained between me and my fallen mate. And, being home meant I had my escape. Reasons not to be seen. I was in charge here and could find others to do everything else for me if I needed my space. Here was mine.‘Where is she staying?’ Hudson asked as we drove along the driveway toward the packhouse. I gave my friend a confused glance, and he motioned with his head toward our guest.I found myself frowning. Truth be told, I had not given it much thought. I had not intended to ever bring the girl home with us. When I had offered help, I had truly thought I could palm her off onto a neighboring pack. They owed me favors. And I had planned to use one of those favors by dropping the fragile she-wolf in their hands for them to deal with.Hudson was waiti

    The drive away from my pack was difficult. Leaving my brother had been the hardest thing I had ever done. I did not know when I would see him again, and that broke my heart. But, with Matty by my side, I rushed to my family home and grabbed a selection of my things, including pictures of my brother and I, and, of course, my Mum, before stuffing everything into a couple of small bags and rushing back to the packhouse to meet Alpha Carter.Matty was as emotional as me, so leaving him was near as difficult as leaving Leo, so I had rushed into the car with tears streaming down my face. But the awkward silence within the large car as we drove along the road from my pack was deafening. Tears slid down my face, and the thought of my brother filled my mind. I could only hope he recovered soon, and Matty’s promise of him and Leo taking their roles as Alpha and Beta in the coming months was going to happen. Our pack needed a positive change. Maybe then I could return.I wi

    I stood by the entrance of the packhouse of Eldermoon Pack with an exasperated sigh leaving my lips before I was able to control it, causing Sonny to turn to look at me yet again. “Are you going to chill the fuck out?” he demanded. “We will get going when we get going. You are asking the girl to up and leave her home. An hour is not long to prepare.”I held back the urge to roll my eyes at the words coming from my friend. An hour would be plenty long enough for me if I was in a hurry to rush to my safety. Mari had to know the danger she was in. Trying to hide my irritation did not work, as a snarl slipped out. I just wanted to leave now. I had given enough time to this shit hole of a pack, and if I was going to be helping the girl she needed to be aware that it was on my terms. And my terms did not include waiting around for her. She seemed to be taking a lifetime in coming to meet us.We had already been standing on the steps of the packhouse for over fifteen minutes past the allotte

  • Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?   Chapter 72 - Mari

    Alpha Carter stalked out of my brother’s hospital room like a monster hunting its prey and I could not help but wonder if Matty had simply handed me from one monster to another. I could not be angry at my friend, for I knew that deep down he believed he was helping me, and to some degree he may well be in the fact I would not be here sitting around waiting for my father’s inevitable return. He would return for me. To end what he had begun. It was not a case of if, but when, and I think that we all knew that. And, as much as I hated the very thought of leaving behind all that I knew, leaving was likely going to be my only savior. But, Alpha Carter was unpredictable. Volatile. And the man sure as hell did not like me…“Go pack your things, Mari.” Matty whispered, his voice a little shaky,“Surely there could be a better way.” Tears filled my eyes as I looked toward one of my oldest friends. But he looked back at me with sadness

    I had spoken my part quite bluntly, yet could see Mari’s eyes darting nervously between Matthew and me. She seemed clueless as to what was happening. Did she not know how much danger she may be in? Had her friend not explained that to her by now? Truth be told, I could not help but wonder why her own Alpha did not have her packed off on a trip to a safe location the moment he heard that Beta Kian was once more on the loose. But, that was me. The Alpha here seemed to work in completely different ways...I turned my eyes to the upcoming Alpha awaiting his response, yet he seemed reluctant to reply. His eyes were upon the floor. I did not know what to make of the guy. Sometimes he impressed me. So much bolder and more modern thinking than his father. Other times, like this, he seemed like he was scared of me, or perhaps even scared of his own shadow...'Or maybe he is worrying about his friends.' Draven said with a sigh, like he was disappointed at me for not having considered the possib

    My legs felt weak beneath me, and the room felt like it was slowly swirling around us. My head was light. I could feel myself weakening as Matty’s arms gripped tightly around me. How could he be gone? That had to mean he was not dead. He had survived the attack upon him and escaped? My mind was swimming with possibilities, and it hurt to think that the man that deserved every bit of pain and suffering had somehow survived. And now he could be out there plotting his final revenge...“Mari, please.” He whispered as he guided me to the edge of my brother's bed. Placing me to sit there, before he crouched down upon the floor in front of me looking up at me with concern as he reached for my hands. “We will do all we can to find him. You have to know this will not be left as it is. You are not going to be left on your own. We will deal with him. The way we should have done before.” He whispered, his thumb rubbing gently across the palm of my hand.I felt like the air had been sucked right o
