บททั้งหมดของ Innocent Little Runt : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Celeste's POVI played with the sleeve of my thin sweater as I waited for Xavier to finish talking to his Beta. Today he wanted to take me around the pack and introduce me to some new people. It scared me, to be honest. I have never really had to meet new people. Every now and then when people would leave us and join a pack I met the Alpha, Beta, or Third-in-command but when I met them they all did the same thing. Look me up and down, sneer in disgust, and turn away.I stiffened when I smelled Xavier. His scent usually calms me down greatly but right now I just thought about the fact that I will have to meet new people. I feel his hand on my shoulder and the tingles calm me down, despite my worried state."Are you ready, little one?""No, but I doubt that would make a difference.""Now or never, right?" I fumbled with my sleeves again and nodded my head. I glanced up at Xavier to find him smiling down at me with pride. How could anyone have pride for a runt? "Come on, little one." I n

Celeste's POVI smiled up at my mother but she only frowned. I know that it hasn't been that long since Dad. . . Passed away. Even though it hasn't been that long I still don't understand why she has to be so upset. I'm okay and so is she? Why can't that be enough?I walked away from the stream and went towards all of the other pack children. A lot of them were like me and lost only their father, but others lost everyone. I looked towards the twins, Madeline and Addison. They lost everything but each other. Neither have talked since. I smiled at them but they didn't return it.Then I looked towards Christopher. He was the oldest of all of us. Twelve years old. He would have started training next year, in a few months actually. He was the Alpha and Luna's son. Only he lost his mother before I was born. Actually I was born just a few months after she died. then no one saw the Alpha after the attack. We just assumed that he died along with everyone else.I walked over to Chris and sat by

Celeste's POV"Are we done yet?" I asked looking at the piles of paper on the desk and not knowing whether they were all filled out or not. I leaned back into Xavier's chest, loving the sparks that flew through my body and the smell of coconut and fresh rain that surrounded me."I just have to call the surrounding packs to confirm the meeting time on Friday and then we are done." My eyebrows scrunched together in confusion."What's the meeting for?" He turned me around and smiled sadly at me. I instantly knew what the meeting was about. "It's about them, isn't it? Those rogues?" He nodded and I choked back the tears. I hate all of those bastards for what they have done. They killed my family, my pack, and I hope those creature end up in the darkest depths possible."They are one of the main reasons, but there are other rogue problems. It's just kind of peaked their interest that the rogues were going after you. They want to know why and so do I." I stiffened. There was a possible chanc

Xavier's POVIn all honesty, I wanted to rip Christopher's head off. He had hurt my mate terribly and I wanted him to pay for it. I wanted him to go through every pain that he made her go through and then have him drown in wolf's bane.But I couldn't do that.My sister is his mate. I don't want my sister to feel the pain of losing her mate. That is an unbearable pain that I have seen many go through. They get depressed to the point where they either commit suicide or live on as an empty void. I refuse for that to happen to my sister.I groan in annoyance. My own thoughts were giving me a headache. I looked down to Celeste. After what happened I had one of the pack members make dinner and bring up two servings for Celeste and I. We lay on the bed and watched TV the whole night and a bit after ten Celeste fell asleep.It's now midnight and I'm still up. My thoughts are keeping me up and it is really annoying. I have a meeting in two days, an Alpha, his mate, and his niece coming tomorro

Xavier's POVMy wolf was howling for me to go and check on Celeste. We have barely been apart since we met and my wolf wanted it to stay that way. I also knew that I had to check on the borders. A few rogues were wondering around outside of the border the past two days and they have been going under my warriors radar. How they are doing it is my question because I have known these warriors either all of my life or all of their lives so they wouldn't betray me. Damn these rogues.Alpha, one of the pack members voice went through my head. Christopher stormed upstairs looking really angry.When did this happen? I growl. I promised Celeste that I wouldn't let him near her and I that is one promise I don't want to break.A few minutes ago Alpha. I didn't think anything of it but then I heard the Luna crying. I'm sorry I didn't alert you sooner Alpha.It's fine. I will be there soon. With that I took off running back to the pack house where my little mate could be in trouble.What if he hur
