Lahat ng Kabanata ng Innocent Little Runt : Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

Xavier's POV I groaned as I woke up with a huge headache. What the hell happened? The last time I had a headache was when I was a teenager. Drinking the alcohol for werewolves, by the way, isn't as fun as the morning after. I open my eyes to see that I'm in Zay's office. Zay's office? What am I doing here? The last thing I remember was- Celeste. I push myself off of the bed, wincing at how sore my entire body feels. Even my hands and feet hurt. Fucking hell. What did I do? It didn't matter, I need to find Celeste. Inside I was hoping, begging, that Celeste had been found and she was upstairs right now. I was hoping that she was sleeping or hoping that she was thinking about what to have for breakfast. She would probably have pancakes and bacon, it's her favorite. then she would come in here and complain about how I missed breakfast and then she would bring me a plate. She would have to apologize because she ate all of my bacon, but she wouldn't really mean it. She woul

Xavier's POV I walked down the cellar steps, my wolf howling with joy at the fact that we might be able to find out where Celeste is soon. I kept telling him to stop, the doubts in my mind not helping in my way whatsoever, but he never listens to me. I get to the two cellars that hold the rogues, the experiments as one of them had called themselves, and the ones that could give me the answer to where my mate was taken, and walk into the one where the grey eyed one is. He smirks when he sees me. "So losing a mate truly does change real werewolves. Interesting. I never believed it myself." I rose an eyebrow at him with a scowl on my face, daring him to test me. "People, creatures really, like me don't have mates. However, I do happen to know a lot about yours. Celestial Patara* Jacobs, daughter of Dilexi and Fernando Jacobs. Her pack was destroyed when she was six and she then became a rogue. I growled. I didn't like anyone talking about her right now. Zay wouldn't let me do

Lycer's POV I had failed. I had failed my job. I was supposed to protect Celestial and I failed. I know Father would be disappointed in me if he saw that I protected her over the secret but I no longer care. It is because of him that I have to protect the secret. It shouldn't even have to bare this secret in the first place. I haven't even seen him in since I was little. I honestly don't even remember how long ago exactly but I definitely know it wasn't within the last few years. He doesn't even deserve my silence. Not to mention that his secret never should have been mine. He was the one who knocked up my egg downer when she was just 15. She was too young to take care of a child and he refused to be with her so she left me on his doorstep. Of course years later I hunted her down only to find her dying of some disease. I gave up my plans to talk, yell, and question her. She was dying and there was two children surrounding her, twins. Then another man came over and kissed her

Celeste's POV I leaned my burning cheek against Lycer's seemingly freezing cold skin. At first when I felt as if it was a hundred degrees outside I pushed off the coat that Lycer put on me, but then it felt as if I was being soaked in ice water. I'd rather be burning hot than be freezing cold. "How are you feeling Celestial? Any better?" I looked up to Lycer who was looking ahead. He seemed to know where he was going and I was hoping he did. I miss Xavier and I want nothing more than to be lying in bed with him, watching television, and having Xavier give me chocolate covered strawberries. He had given me chocolate strawberries every time that I had trouble sleeping and we would stay up until there weren't any more and I had grown tired. "I don't feel like I am going to puke on you anymore but that's about it." He nodded and went to put his hand on my back but then thought better of it. My back was starting to become numb but if I tried to turn my entire back would flare up

Lycer's POV Celestial sniffled and laid her head back down on my chest. I had given her ibuprofen, telling her it would make her headache go away but it only seemed to make her feel worse. We had just started walking again after we rested for the night, Celestial shivering the entire time. I didn't know how much farther away her pack was but I knew which direction to go in. I have spent years memorizing where certain packs are according to the stars. One of the firsts was Paramount since it is the strongest pack in the world. I figured if anything got serious I would sneak in there and they would unknowingly or knowingly protect me. "Lycer?" Her voice was rough and shaky. I was starting to worry. She had been doing at least a bit better but now she was worse than before. "Yes Celestial?" I tried to sound casual but I didn't know if it worked or not. She coughed and sighed. "How much longer? I really don't feel good." I pulled her close to me, being careful of her back.
