Four sets of eyes stared at me with varying emotions, Marcel looked impressed and Maria looked satisfied, Alpha Devin was concerned and Alpha Allison was livid.  “What were you thinking? You could have gotten hurt or worse- taken, I didn’t expect you to be so careless! If you wanted to go for a run you could have woken one of us or even joined the border patrol.” Alpha Allison paced from wall to wall in the expansive office but even it appeared too small to house her frustration.  “I needed to think, I was fine, I was at the clearing by the Northern border.” I flinched at my own attempt of getting out of trouble when she scoffed. “Yeah, of cour

We circled each other, our contrasting features creating a mesmerising picture of yin and yang. With canines bared, our wolves growled threats at one another, both hungry for the title of the strongest female fighter in the world, but if only it were that easy. The blood that seeped from gashes and scratches on our bodies matted the soft fur of our most feral forms and spoke of the fierceness of the battle thus far. Growing tired of the game of cat and mouse I cut my footsteps short, to leap across the invisible ring we created aiming for her hind leg. My action caught her off guard and the split second that froze her features left her left thigh open to my attack as I sunk my teeth into her flesh. The metallic taste of blood on my tongue was one I would never get used to, but it came with a sense of satisfaction that only grew with the whimper that sounded from her. Letting go of her, I used my body weight to throw her off balance, nearly missing the razor-sharp teeth snapping at m

The door slamming in the distance snapped me from my restless slumber, snapping my head up, I caught a glimmer in the distance as they approached me.

A symbol of enlightenment and darkness, immortality and eternity. It was beautiful, nature’s very own yin-yang.  “Good Afternoon, Goddess Selene.” Dark greeted me with a sinister smirk on his face, to which I responded with a flat look.  “To what do I owe the pleasure?” I mumbled through the gag, knowing full well it sounded more muffled than words. &nbs

The plane ride to California was short and when I stepped off the plane the humid air hit my face and a river of relief washed through me.

By the time I got to bed after my shower, Ben was already fast asleep. The poor guy must have gotten tired of waiting for me to scrub off a week’s worth of sweat and dirt from my body, but instead of taking the space he left for me on the bed, I made my way back to the door, feeling too restless to sleep.    The house was dark apart from the hallway light, but I could see Jasper’s figure seated on the grass in the backyard through the kitchen window without much hassle.    “Couldn’t sleep?” I asked when I stepped up behind him.    “Yeah, you?” He mumbled without looking at me.    “You’d think after a week of sitting on a cold floor and running through the desert I’d be more tired, but the thought
