The Longing Of Lone Wolves Novels & Stories

It was not long before the muffled cries of passion, broken and sporadic, seeped into Jessica's ears. Just a wall away, she trembled, sliding down against the cool surface to the floor. Anthony's breath came in ragged gasps. "Linda, after having a kid, how are you still so...?" Linda's breathy response followed, "Oh, and Jessica isn't?" The sounds of their encounter grew more intense, culminating in Anthony's low roar. "Jess is too buttoned-up, nothing like you—so free-spirited from your time overseas."

"How did I give birth to someone so cold-blooded?" Mom clutched her cheek, glaring at Grandma. "And how do I have a mother as unreasonable as you? You've lost your mind over that walking disaster!" Their argument went nowhere. In the end, Grandma could only leave in despair. Watching her retreating figure, I wanted to follow, but the moment Mom walked away, my soul was pulled along with her. Maybe my attachment to her was too strong. My soul could only stay near Mom, never straying far. Pain trembled through me.

Mary Miller-Parks gripped the steering wheel of her 2000 Jetta driving like a bat out of hell she drove all night when she felt the shift happen. Her own wolf crying from her prison inside Mary’s mind. ‘She is free!’ Ayla had howled pacing the walled up spot in Marys mind. ‘I will not let you out.’ Mary growled back at her. ‘I can find her.’ Her wolf snapped back. “I will not do it. I swear I would not and you know that.” Mary said out load her grip on the wheel getting tighter. ‘Mary let me out’ “I WILL NOT LET YOU OUT” she screamed into the night. Mary pushed her down, quieting her. Ayla went quiet curling herself into a ball sleeping inside Mary’s mind. Mary knew as she got closer to that

What kind of person am I? "You were bit by a red. So there are two of us left in the bunch." Ravena laughed. "The horde. "Am I now one of you?" Carol appeared to be wondering if this was good or terrible news. “Yes. You can stay as long as you want. Some people become loners or rogues. For security, most people go with a pack." "How about actual wolves?" "Do they mix you up with them?"

Approaching the loners with caution, Alpha greeted them with a gentle voice, "Greetings, fellow travelers. What has brought you to our territory?" The leader of the loners, a seasoned wolf named Luna, stepped forward, her voice tinged with a mix of vulnerability and resilience. "We have traveled far, driven from our home by strife and hardship. We seek refuge, a place where we can find safety and belonging." The pack members exchanged glances, their thoughts and emotions intertwined. Accepting the newcomers would bring both opportunities and challenges. Beta, known for his wisdom, stepped forward and addressed the pack, "We must consider the potential benefits of integrating them into our pa

Not when the doctor said the baby was gone. Those were loneliness with walls around them — contained, survivable, the kind you learn to carry. This is open air. This is endless white in every direction and not a single person left who hasn’t lied to me or left me or both. The compound is dead silent around me except for the footsteps. One set, crunching steadily through the snow behind me, unhurried and patient, with the specific rhythm of a wolf who has finally found his prey exactly where he wanted her. Alone.

The full moon stirred everything up — instincts, want, the need to be close to strong wolves. Kael finally stopped pretending. He stepped right in front of her near the fireplace. “This isn’t just about protection anymore.” Rafe moved in from the side, his usual grin gone, eyes dark. “We all feel it.” Torin stood close on her other side. His voice stayed quiet but sure. “The moon is calling. Your wolf is calling to us.” Lila looked at each of them. Her breath came quicker. The territory fights between their packs, the danger from the rival clan — none of it mattered right now. All she could think about was how good they smelled and how close they were.

"That day in court, you could have chosen me. Why him? Why?!" My mother collapsed on the floor, her nails scraping against it with a harsh sound. Blood seeped from her fingertips, but she didn’t seem to feel it. "Until Mr. Wilson found me." Aidan’s voice softened suddenly. When he looked at Ellie, there was a twisted kind of attachment in his eyes. "He was so poor we couldn’t even afford meat… but he gave me a home. But then—" His voice warped again. "That damn cancer was going to take away the last family I had!"

"Don't talk about him." "Why not?" the voice asked. "You think of him constantly. I can taste it on you, the exact shape of that longing, the quiet way you've learned to carry it without collapsing under the weight. It's beautiful, in its own broken way." The heat inside me surged again, and this time it wasn't just protective. It was something closer to recognition, like my own wolf was straining toward the Hollow's voice instead of away from it, drawn to something familiar in the way it described longing and division and the ache of being split from what should have been whole.

The sentence that forces him into a life wandering from Pack to Pack searching for a place until he dies in a puddle of blood and/or vomit, like most exiles do. I scuttle to John, my head and stomach scraping the grass, my tail tucked between my legs, submitting into the earth not because I care about Ronan, but because if he leaves, then I am a lone wolf. There’s an old saying that lone wolves are the only ones who always breed, their children being Frustration and Dissent. That’s why they are given over to their echelon’s Alphas to be their servants, their nidlings. A nidling has nothing, is nothing. Even at the bottom rank, you’re paired with someone who is just as shit a wolf as you are,
