Fortune favors the bold

I know what I am about to do is incredibly stupid, but I simply have no choice. There is only one way out of this pack, and it's through the scouts. So I need to join them–no matter what. The plan is simple, maybe even stupidly straight forward: join the moonborn trials, pass the tests, join the scouts and desert the first chance I get. It's technically treason, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. It would be a simple plan–if this hag would just leave already. Hag being my uncle’s charming wife. With a smile she informs me for the hundredth time of the multitude of chores she has prepared for me today: clean her silver, scrub the floor, dust the shelves, make the beds, yada yada yada. Nothing I haven't heard before. “Now, off to it girl” she says, locking the door behind her. I don't move immediately, I know she delayed this morning on purpose, fully aware of what today is and not trusting me to obey their order to not go. So I stay still and listen. I hear her bre

I'm so screwed

My cousin clearly doesn't find this as amusing as the instructor–as she stares daggers at me. Her expression reads: “how dare you” and her eyes scream “consequences”. But I don't care, it's too late to turn back now. “An omega from such a strong family” he starts, “Miss Dane, care to explain?” He gestures to Talia and I see her fury spike, sending shivers down my spine. “She is my cousin from a failure of a family–from my father's side” she says quickly with a grin. Fully expecting a reaction from me but I'm not going to ruin this for myself, it's been a long time since provocations like that worked on me. For good reason.“But she is your blood nonetheless” he says to her, “and as a beta in your household she is your responsibility. Letting her come here makes me question your ability to lead” Talia's expression turns stoic at his words. Her gaze focused on the man. She will remember him. The instructor dared to question her leadership skills, knowing full well she aims to be Lu

You did this to yourself

He doesn't say a word, but the arena goes silent like a graveyard.He shifts his gaze to where the other Alphas are seated and the leader of the Alphas gives him a small nod. To which he sighs.“Let's get this over with, little wolf” he says, and I swear the class exhaled. He walks to the center of the ring.I look again to the Leader of the Alpha cadets; he resembles the man that may or may not kill me today. Fingers crossed.Twins, handsome twins, but the leader doesn't sport the magic eyes like his brother. Magic eyes because I have no other words for them, they are entrancing, tempting and different colors; One the color of the earth and the other of the heavens. My gaze shifts to Talia and her stupid smirk, and she looks right at me. I already know what she's thinking: “You did this to yourself”. I did, and I am going to survive this, like everything else that came before.I move to the center as well, stopping a few feet outside his reach just to be safe. “Well class” the ins

Consequences

“Concede”His command echoes in my mind as I struggle to free myself from his grip. But the more I try the deeper his claws sink into my neck. “Maybe you should take your own advice” I say.“I don't want to kill you, little wolf” he says, “but I don't have a problem doing it. Do you understand?”“Completely” I say, barely managing a chuckle. Then I slash his arm.He doesn't flinch. Doesn't even bat an eye at the trail of blood now flowing from his arm. His claws dig deeper and now I can barely breathe.But that doesn't stop me.I slash away at him, again and again; leaving marks on his face, chest and arm. Within moments, he is soaked with his own blood but with no evidence of damage; all healed.His gaze is so focused but oddly soft, he really doesn't want to do this, but I'm giving him no choice. Because I have no choice. “You have to make them pay, Millie,” Riven says.” we can't stop here”“You have to concede, Millie,” Kael says.“Is this where you end?” Varek asks.No!I don't

It hurts so much but I laugh

The blow comes from Talia's right hand–Dena. it sends me flying into the wall.My spine trembles on impact as the shockwave travels through my body.I hit the ground gasping for air.My mind is racing.That's harder than she's ever been allowed to hit me. It felt like Talia herself hit me.Now I'm scared of what will happen if she actually does. And she will, I've been through this routine before.They each get their turn before the Luna to be.Maris takes me by the hair, how typical of her.She forces me up just in time for Rhea's blow to meet my chest. The pain travels to my heart–sharp and breathtaking.I would've fallen to my knees, but Maris still has my hair. And I don't think she plans on letting go any time soon. Usually they target places where the bruises can be hidden till they heal, even when they know I heal rather quickly for an omega. But not today; they just saw me take on an Alpha, surely I can handle much more than they usually dish out.Maris confirms this when

There was light in me. What a cruel joke

Caspian's POVToday, I met the end of me.I have dreaded this day for as long as I can remember. I had hoped the Moon goddess hated me too much to let this happen. That my actions had ensured such a fate would be denied me. That darkness and pain would be my only companions in this life.But I guess this, in its own way, is a fitting punishment for me. The irony.When my father ordered us to join the Moonborn trials, I obeyed. But I didn't understand what the point was. Lucien's attendance I understood; it's his destiny to rule.My fate required no trial to prove myself. I already have. Again and again. But he still doesn't trust me.I arrived at the arena, hoping for an uneventful day. When Tavian requests I spar with a wolf I had never seen before.“Is this a joke?” I thought. To spar during the Moonborn training period is to give it your all. Which often means death for one of the participants, sometimes both. And this is who they want me to face? A little wolf with barely any mea

What The Fuck

To survive–that’s my goal for the next three months. “There can be no distractions” I whisper to myself as my eyes scan the arena for him. His scent still clings to me like he's standing before me again, trying to choke the life out of me or am I the one holding on to it? It should have faded by now–his scent–washed away by the rain as the sky wept for me. But it hasn't. I can't figure out why or why he saved me. His kind usually doesn't pay attention to mine–omega–much less going out of their way to save us. “Get settled,” the instructor–Tavian– orders and the remaining cadets quickly fill the empty seats. “Now that's done with,” he starts, “ we can begin this year's preparation for the Moonborn trials” Applause and whistling rise from the crowd. Of course, they're excited. To pass the trials is to be given a guaranteed chance at a good military career. And despite the dangers, the trials actually have a low death rate. You can't exactly kill off wolves the king needs for

He Should Have Known Better

Garron’s crime was finding his mate—the only daughter of an old family here in the pack, but he didn't know that at the time. When he told us—his fellow Omegas—about her, most of us were against it and told him it wasn't worth it, but others lost as he was in the excitement of a forbidden love, encouraged him, and he listened. I said nothing.He approached her in the open, a mistake. In time, she fell for him and Garron, drunk on love and fantasies, declared they would marry.He should have known better.He came to us to inform us of his plans to marry her at the temple that evening, and that we were all invited. We showered him with joy and well wishes instead of reason and warnings.We heard later that evening of an Omega that seduced an innocent Alpha lady and how he planned to trick her into a marriage and taint her bloodline.By the time we found him, he was already a bloody mess as the guards dragged his body around town, all because he dared to love above his station. Such is

Chapter 9: I Don't Need You

No wolf is born equal. We are told it is the will of the Moon Goddess—Lunne. But she didn't stop at the classes; Alpha,Beta and Omega. Even within the bounds of each class, no two wolves had the same amount of power. No matter how proud and arrogant an Alpha was, he knew there would be an Alpha stronger and faster than he was. And that difference in power is key to everything in our world.And I can see that power, like pale white smoke, radiating off every living thing I've seen, even humans. As a child I called this white smoke—aura.Garron's aura was on the level of an Alpha and almost double the size of Dorian's, but there was something hidden in white; little specks of black like nothing I've ever seen before.“This shouldn't concern you” my brothers echo.They're right. And it doesn't, so I shove the thought deep in my mind and lock it behind a door titled ‘distractions’ and I cannot be distracted, not when I'm so close now.“I can't believe that just happened” Corrin says, sna

Chapter 10: A Bed of Flowers

I walk through the forest slowly, pushing foliage from my path as I follow his scent like a beacon; calling to me and me alone.He's not the reason I'm heeding it's call, he could never be. It's just, I've missed this. This smell that clings to him and now to me. He smelled like the damp earth, kissed by cold mountain winds and buried in lupines. He smells like home and I soon see why.I stand at the edge of a hidden quiet world. Before me, a still, dark lake cradled in a shallow basin, its surface smooth as glass, reflecting the dark grey sky. Surrounding it, a carpet of purple and white lupine dancing with the hum of the earth as cold mountain winds rush past me and I shiver slightly, not from the cold, but from recognition as it plants tender kisses on my skin. Just like home, but with a lot less snow.I shut my eyes.And in the quiet, I lose myself in the familiarity of it all.But this wind brings more than home; the smell of blood, hiding beneath the bliss, reminding me this i
