Semua Bab She-Pod: Bab 1 - Bab 10

KaneI watch out the car window as the trees whiz past; I had to accept this invitation but Alpha Mernard is what I like to call a Muttly. He thinks he has high breeding and an exquisite line, but he runs his pack like a coward, and I am not fond of him as an Alpha.“Kane, are you even listening to me?” My Beta Finn asks me, and I snap my head towards him.“No,” I honestly answer with a smirk and watch his hands scrub down his face with anguish.“Kane, this is important!” He growls, but I can't help but chuckle.“Finn,” I say calmly, grabbing for the flask in my jacket side pocket, “We have been planning this for months. I am not worried. We have nothing to fear.” I remind him.Finn sighs, grabbing the flask from my hand before I can even bring it to my lips, “I know, Kane! I just like to be prepared!” He says before taking three big gulps from my flask. I watch his expression turn bitter as he swallows, “Why do you like vodka so much?” He snarls, passing the flask back to me. “It’s l

KaneEverything happened so fast. I didn’t even have a chance to question Alpha Mernard about Audra’s disappearance when the attack happened. Loki, Finn and I fought our way through his warriors to get away.We wanted to stay and fight, but we do not have the numbers. An attack like this one wiped out our pack and now I wonder if Alpha Perez is the one behind it.Does he know where Audra is?“Help! Let me go!!” a girl shrieks as we head into the forest. I look at Loki and Finn and I watch as they both shake their heads no, but he’s alone and headed to a van; at least we could save her and the van full of women they have.We all three attack and then I see it… her white hair. Something I haven’t seen in years.“Do you see it?” I ask Finn and he nods, his mouth wide open in shock.So many people believe white hair is a curse….. but we know better.“Take her!” I command as more of Alpha Perez’s warriors come out from the trees. Loki sighs wearily as he knocks the screaming girl over the

Kane“What do you think? He can’t possibly tell her now,” Loki whispers to Finn as I walk into the room, but both stop talking as they see me.I hold my tongue, sitting back down at the table, “I didn’t tell her,” I say blankly, taking a bite of food. “I don’t even know how to. She’s too fragile. I don’t know if she could handle the truth.”Finn sighs, “She’s been abused, Kane. I know you saw the scars on her back and she’s missing an arm. Did her Alpha do that?” He asks, anger in every word. “Because if he’s not dead in Alpha Perez’s attack, we will make it right!”“No, she said she was born that way,” I say quickly, glancing at Loki. He looks even more concerned than Finn and he’s usually pretty quiet when it comes to pack business, “I heard you two whispering, so go on,” I smirk. “Out with it.” I command him.Loki’s mouth gapes as he shakes his head, “I agree with you both! We can’t tell her. She ate her food so fast tonight—she’s been starved! She’s scared of everything and every

KaneDid I tell her everything?No.I made sure we all stuck to the plan. She doesn’t need to know everything right now, but we do need her to know some stuff so she will help us.“So, Mia, did you ever see Audra?” I ask and I watch as she plays with strands of her white hair.“There are really others like me?” she asks softly, her eyes darting to her hair and then back to me. “And we aren’t cursed?” She asks with her voice full of uncertainty.How can I make her believe me?“No, Mia, you aren’t cursed. If you were do you think the Moon Goddess would have spoke to you?”“I’m not sure…. Why are you, my guardian?”I inhale sharply, deciding to tell this part of the truth as needed, “My pack used to watch over ancient ones like you,” I confess. “But our pack was attacked when I was a child. That’s when Audra was taken. We are the protectors of your kind.”I watch as her eyes scan all three of us and she sighs, pulling all her white hair to one side, “No, I never saw her,” she says softly

KaneLooking at all the bodies, smelling smoke and death in the air takes me back to the night my pack was attacked. It happened so quickly and there was nothing I could do. I remember seeing the bodies of my family and friends. People that I knew my entire lives, in pieces, scattered on our pack land grounds….. This is too similar and carries a sadness that I am much to familiar with.“Here, it is,” Mia says, her hand touching a huge oak tree. “This is the entrance, but I do not know how to get inside.”I look around and see the shed she just mentioned in the distance. The roof has holes and many of the glass of the windows are shattered. I am hopeful these things happened in the attack, but deep down, I know they didn’t.This is just how Mia has lived.My gaze comes back to Mia, her face is pale and I can see how anxious she is. I know it was a little selfish to ask her to come back her, but we need answers and her pack holds them… or at least some.“I can’t do this!” Mia gasps out
