River Wild Novels & Stories

The sound of the water was a constant, thunderous roar, a reminder of the challenge that lay before the competitors. The river spanned nearly fifty feet at its widest point, its width varying slightly due to the natural curves and bends of the landscape. The current was swift and relentless, churning with a ferocity that sent frothy waves crashing against the rocky shore. Large, jagged boulders jutted out from the water at irregular intervals, creating treacherous obstacles for anyone attempting to cross. The surface was dotted with white caps, indicating the hidden rocks and sudden drops that lurked beneath the turbulent flow.

"I'll be looking out for a new job soon tho" "Wow, that's crazy", Rita sighed. "Tell me more about this new boss though" "I don't know a lot but from what I've heard, he's pretty strict and business oriented, no time for shit, mature too, and most important, he's smart" "I like the fact that he's business oriented and mature and he fired Janet, what more could you want in a boss?", she smiled, switching the television to the next channel. "This is Ryan Chester and you're watching United Television live from The Bay Area", their attentions were turned to the television as it showed a terrified looking man. "And I'm here with ...what's your name, sir?"

He was about 10 feet away from a huge salt and pepper colored wolf with red eyes staring at a snow white wolf with one jade green eye and one sky blue eye. Snapping his head to face the wolf at his side, shock slapping him in the face like lightning. “What is going on? Dear Creator, this is me, and that’s…my human?” Rex exclaimed over the wind picking up and howling around them. What is this? I have already lived this. I have never seen this side of when we met as wolves.

Nature vs nurture and all that. So I broke the attic window, and climbed down the pipes. Then my brain yearned to be in water. Unfortunately, the only way to get to Flower Moon river was to cross the Unclaimed Forest. So I did what I had to do. Who would be in the forest at three in the morning? Right, Werewolves—because like I mentioned it was a full moon.

It’s all I can do to quiet Finn’s first plunge into the rapids. He sputters, paddles wildly. “There’s nothing here,” Jakov cries. “Spread out,” Father demands. “I bet our lives you can’t swim faster,” I whisper in Finn’s ear with a grim chuckle. Any answer is lost in the noise of the river, but he seems to pick up speed. I spot the vague shape of another wolf in the water and crush myself closer to Finn. He breaks free of the bank. ‘They’ve crossed,’ Jakov spits.

His scent wraps around her like a protective cloak, and for the first time since arriving at Silver Point, she feels completely safe. "Mr. Prickles survived the trauma of being my movie date," Riley continues, setting the small cactus back on the windowsill with exaggerated care.

Reva calls and is quiet for a long moment on the phone and then says, "Your mother always believed in rivers. She said once that Volana wolves are like water, they find every crack, they get through. She would have loved this name." I hold the phone against my face after the call ends. Outside, the June evening is still doing the long gold thing. Inside, Lyra is singing her grandmother's song, the one she found in my field, the one no one taught her, and somewhere inside me River is reaching outward toward whatever the world is going to offer. Going everywhere. The way water always does.

Amid the crisp sound of glasses colliding, I took a sip of the cold beer. The chill slid down my throat, but somehow, it warmed my heart. The road ahead was long, yet there was no reason to look back. Somewhere out there, beyond the horizon, an open wilderness was still waiting for me.

He got out of the car and locked it with the remote, then ran after the woman who had already walked into the forest, which was so dark because it was so dense. The light from the headlights of passing vehicles helped Evan see the road below so he could stay behind Rita. "Why not take a road that cars can pass? Why are we walking like this?" Sander complained when they had to cross a fairly fast-flowing river. They both rolled up their pants to their knees. The cold mountain water made Sander wince in surprise. Even though he lived in Malang, the cold mountain water at night still made him shiver. Fortunately, the river only came up to his calves. The many large rocks made him careful not to

He's not even allowed to shift anymore nor can he ride Titus since the movement could cause his water to break or send him into labor.
