Lahat ng Kabanata ng Ravished By Her Fated Beasts: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

We moved slowly to a table in the middle of the wall at the other end of the hall, those we passed all bowed their heads. Turning my head I noticed that after we had gone by most of them raised their noses and scented the air. Realizing everyone we walked past knew what Joel and I had just done upstairs was really embarrassing. I was blushing deeply by the time we reached our table.The conversation at our table was pleasant. Nate was there with Shawna as were several other couples. Joel spoke quietly in my ear and reassured me throughout the meal.Looking up during the dinner I saw a familiar face and gasped. Lucas was sitting 3 tables away devouring everything on his plate. His table was particularly full of people and they all seemed really happy. Lucas himself was shaved and wearing a matching outfit. I tugged at Joel's arm and looked in that direction, hoping he would get the mental question."He's doing much better," he answered me. "His friends and remaining family haven't left

"She was caught, but saw some of the pack members change first. She was placed in one of our holding cells. Alpha Latro was called to decide her fate. He brought several Betas with him including Saul. Saul took one look and fell to his knees in front of the Alpha and begged him to spare his mate.""Wow," I gasped."Katrina was terrified and thought she was being kept as Saul's slave. Saul tried to keep her in his quarters and talk to her. She convinced him she was fine with it and as soon as she could she ran. We couldn't find a lock that would hold her after that.""She finally allowed him to mate her and was changed begrudgingly by the next full moon, but we all wondered when she was going to run next.""Once the mate bond was full and she was a wolf she was able to understand his intentions. After that she's been devoted to him and the pack. She helps us train in, well, getting out of sticky situations.""Why did she take him 'begrudgingly'," I asked.Shawna shifted uncomfortably,

Generally, life was good. I loved living in the den and there weren't anymore death threats. Joel relaxed the slightest and my pool of friends got a little larger. I met Jasmine who was newly pregnant and Sophia. Both women were Betas and started going to the gym to train with me.Jasmine was never part of the action, due to her condition, but she loved to scream instructions at me from the sidelines. As though fighting Shawna wasn't difficult enough, I now had my own cheerleader. My guards had lightened up some and laughed at the show we put on.When all the noise stopped I knew Joel was close. Nobody messed around when the boss was near. That was usually the only warning I got that he was watching me. I tried to pay attention, but was frequently distracted by Shawna."You keep dropping your guard on your left side, love," he whispered into my ear one day causing me to jump into Shawna's arms. I hadn't heard him behind me and hadn't realized the gym had gone silent."Could you at lea

When Joel came back into our suites later that night I was sitting and staring into the fire. He sat across from me and laid his head in his hands. It took a while for him to say anything and when he did it was quietly."Tell me what you are afraid of," he said."I don't want to lose myself," I told him."You will still be you. Every human I've ever known to be changed was like themselves after the transition. You won't lose your likes or dislikes. However, you will find your more animal half. Intense emotions can trigger the more animal half to show itself as a form of protection. The longer you are a wolf the better control you should have. In certain instances, even the best of us have lapses," he said watching me."Your family doesn't think I am good enough for you," I said bluntly."My family doesn't make this decision for me and, for my part, I see your point. I don't know what I'd do if you told me to change myself that much for you. It would be like losing part of myself. The

Truth be told, I did understand Joel's strain. He spent long hours working and came back to me every night brooding. He was baseline upset and never did completely get relaxed.The pack was a large extended family; they protected each other and trusted one another. He loved the pack members deeply and would willing fight to protect them. Yet, it was most certainly pack members that had taken me. In fact, he knew which wolves were involved but he couldn't find them.He had sent teams every where the group was known to hang out and they were nowhere. Their involvement didn't surprise him; the five young wolves were troubled. Stories abounded of their abuse of those that were weaker than them. I shuddered thinking how lucky I was they didn't tear me to pieces.The five rogues weren't really bright. The idea they had managed to keep themselves hidden was not entertained. Someone much smarter was mixed up with this and it went deeper than a couple violent degenerates. With this in mind pac
