He was outside again, with the net in his hands. It was a bit awkward as a wolf hunting for grasshoppers, but to him, it was merely a hobby.Although, he had to admit that it was a strange hobby, not one worthy of being looked down soon as he regularly was. Now, it was nighttime again, and he had gone out with his traps, ready to begin his work.As he began to set the traps around, his mind drifted to the girl locked in his room. She was now sleeping, and the last time he had seen her, she was muttering to herself. That time, he had come to drop the plate of food at the door and had not even set a foot inside to know what she was muttering about. In fact, he had not set a foot into the room ever since that incident that took place barely twelve hours ago.She had a strange power, he knew. One that was erratic and uncontrollable, he realized, by how the looks of the furnace had been after she was done with it. He recalled briefly, how the fire was so hot that he began sweating profuse

Jay had not slept at all throughout the night as he was still driving to Elder Quinn’s home which was quite a long way. Meanwhile, his thoughts were in disarray, as he had still kept trying to reach Elder Quinn but to no avail. He also tried with Scarlett, but he could not reach her as well.Now, the strong Alpha was a mess of emotions, trying to hold it together so that it would not leak to his mate and beloved wife, Sky. He needed to not worry her right then.Things were really a mess right now, he thought. He should have known, should have taken Oliver’s word for it and checked on Scarlett right the moment that he had heard she might be in danger.He turned his car off the intersection and continued driving down a two-lane road. The clear sky of the morning did not provide him relief.As the car moved down the road towards his destination, his mind was whirling. He had been trying to reach out to both Elder Quinn and Scarlett for ages. It was getting to a point where he had to wond

Scarlett sat by the windowsill of the room she was in.Two days had passed slowly, and it had been a rollercoaster.Ever since her freak out as she thought the strange and unruly wolf had abducted her, she had been surprised to find that, hours later, he brought in a plate of food for her. He even apologized for the way he acted towards her earlier and asked her to eat. He took the time to show her the bathroom and how to use the facilities so that she could stay there to collect herself until she was ready to leave.Scarlett smiled a little, pressing her face at the window as she recalled when he laughed at her when she asked if there were grasshoppers in the meal. But that was a great way to break the ice, and the tension they had felt in the room had gone away.She later found out that his name was Ian, and she had introduced herself as Scarlett.She now felt absolutely sorry for destroying the furnace in his room, where she now resided in. The young girl had found out that this ho

By the time the call between her and Sky ended, Gabs’ mind was already whirling about, trying to collect her thoughts the same way she picked up dirty laundry in her teenagers’ rooms.She had told them so. She had mentioned it to Jay and Sky a long time ago, that it would bite them back in the ass if they ever did send Scarlett away.And what has happened now?The she-wolf fumed, pacing the walls of her room. Her mate was not back from his work, and deep inside, she wished to have him near her, to comfort her. Maybe this was due to the conversation she and Sky had just had, and thatGabriella always felt a pang of envy that was great each time that she talked to either Sky or Jay, or visited to meet her lovely nephew and niece, Oliver and Scarlett.The Alpha and his Luna were really living the life, unlike her, who was trying her best to not poison her relationship with Sky and her brother, with the envy she truly felt. And was it a bad thing to feel such envy? Jay’s children had powe

Oliver was driving down the highway, jauntily whistling a tune from the radio as the song played. The road was very free at this time of day, and the sun was shining down upon the earth, making everywhere bright and beautiful. He enjoyed every bit of it – the warm breeze that blew on his face as he continued to drive away from his town, the music playing on the radio that he could not know the words to but whistled and hummed along regardless, and of course, the absolute freedom and lack of pressure from his parents, his friends, from Eleanor, and the worries he had before melted away. His wolf was enjoying it too, by the tingling he felt building within him like he was gearing up for something good and fun. He also felt contentment deep within himself, and a purring in his chest. He was really having the time of his life, for the first time in a very long time.“You’re excited, aren’t you? Being out in the open, no one is nagging at you. No lessons in class, and no stress,” he asked
