All Chapters of The Wolf's Call (Book 1): Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Where the fuck did you run off to last night, Liv?!" August nearly screams as I push my way into the kitchen.I woke up this morning feeling sore in my muscles, especially the one between my legs. Kind of like I got aggressively fucked last night, and the sweet scent of honey is stuck to my skin.Well, that could be a probability because all I remember from last night was that my friends and I decided to give into a dare to stay out in the woods till after midnight.Not just any part of the woods, but the part that was marked out as forbidden from trespassing.There's an abandoned cabin out there that was burned down some twenty years ago, and it's believed that it's occupants died in the flames.A few weeks after that incident, a hunter who happened to be stuck in a storm out in that area took shelter in its ruined remains.He claimed that he was attacked by the ghosts of the cabins' occupants. A man with hair so long and skin so smooth, you won't tell it's a man until he spoke to y

By the time I get back to my dorm exhausted and drained, all I want is silence, a nap, and maybe for my brain to stop screaming "honey" every time I inhale, and "mate" every time I exhale.What I do not want? To walk in on my two best friends sucking face on the couch like a they're eating each other's souls."Oh for fuck's sake," I blurt before I can even stop myself.August yelps and practically launches herself off Ethan, but it’s too late. His lips are red, her hair is a mess, and their guilty faces scream busted.“Wow,” I drawl, leaning against the doorframe. “So this is what you two do when I’m not around? Interesting.”“We—It’s not—” August stammers, her hands flailing like she’s trying to erase the last thirty seconds from existence.Ethan, ever the calm one, just clears his throat and sits up straighter, like maybe if he acts mature, I’ll forget I saw him with his tongue halfway down my best friend’s throat.I grin wickedly, suddenly enjoying the moment. “Relax, lovebirds. I’

During my last lecture, something flashed through my mind. It was a memory, but it doesn't make any sense to me.It was from the Halloween night and I was in the woods. For some reason, it felt like I was lying on the ground and someone was speaking.Except the voice I heard wasn't Zeke's, which is weird because I know that the only person I was with that night was Zeke.Was there someone else? I tried to squeeze out more to make more sense of it, but nothing.It's like I can't even remember on command."It's going to come to you when it wants to, Liv. Don't be pushing it like that," my mind tells me.It's true. My mother has always told me that it's no use trying to force something. When it comes, it comes.So I should listen to my mind, right?However, there's just a gut feeling that what I'm forgetting is a life changing piece. Something that may have traumatized my memory into forgetting.Something that will change my perspective of the world forever.Just a gut feeling. Which i

Noah is early. Again.But unlike yesterday, he's not as fancy dressed. Good, because I put little thought into my outfit too.He drives us just outside of town to a bar with sticky doors and neon lights. I've only been here once with Ethan some two years ago.August had gone home for the holidays, so I was alone in the dorm and Ethan thought getting me drunk was a good idea.The place hasn't changed much since then. Still the same cracks and dents, the same semi drunk patrons, and the same oddly comforting warmth.We take our seats at the far end of the bar and I briefly scan the area. My head is quiet too, I'm glad for that.I probably scared my thoughts away when I banged my head on the counter top last night."What will you have?" He asks me and I don't even give it much thought."Water. With ice.""Strange request, but I'll be right back." He smiles and heads off to get our drinks.When he returns, I take a slow sip of the water like it's an actual drink and his eyes follow my mov
