“That’s not reassuring.” I turned my back to the hall and lifted the flap of the paper. They were really amazingly complicated symbols; Draugluin must have taken his time writing it as detailed as he could. There were even some missing symbols as if I'd scratched them off in the fight.“This isn’t Latin,” I smiled, “or Chinese or Japanese or really any language I’ve seen written down on paper. It could be encrypted with numbers and words of other languages. And this one looks like a musical note.” I pointed to something that resembled a whole rest.“Something tells me this will take longer than I thought it would.” Draugluin scratched his head.“How long did you think it would take,” I asked.“About a month,” Draugluin admitted, “but with all my responsibilities, my free time isn’t very frequent. Not only that but I can get suddenly interrupted at any time. My father would be furious if he had any inclination that I hadn’t dropped this ‘foolish’ venture. He feels it is too dangerous fo

“Can I take Lupe to get some dessert,” Freki asked me. I couldn’t hold back my smile when I saw her mouth stuffed with broccoli like a chipmunk. That’s one way to finish your dinner.“Sure, but watch out for other people and hold Lupe’s hand,” I barely finished my statement before Freki started dragging a confused Lupe away.“Aww, they love you,” Uncle Benny smiled with his hands folded in front of him, plate spotless. How he could eat large amounts of food and somehow keep his figure was beyond me. I eyed him warily but his warm smile relaxed me. This was Uncle Benny, not Alpha.“I’m sure you are wondering why I wanted to sit with you three tonight,” Uncle Benny shifted, glancing towards my siblings who had made it to the dessert table. “I have something I want to warn you about. Alpha is having his health issues again. This can cause mood swings in him and everyone is alert and waiting, I’m sure you can feel the tension.”I actually didn’t notice until he pointed it out, I had been t

Lyall was too busy laughing to avoid my backpack slamming into his face. After it slid off his face, Lyall held his nose but still could not contain his laughter. “You should have seen your face.”There was something about Lyall that was different the more I hung around him. I now realized that there used to be a stiff feeling between Lyall and I. Sure we hung out but there was now this more relaxed part of Lyall that I couldn’t ever remember seeing before. Was it our rank difference that held him back from getting closer to me in the past? If it was, he had done a dang good job of hiding it and I couldn't decide if that made him a good friend or a bad one.“How’s life as a Theta,” Lyall changed the subject.“Torture,” I admitted, staring at the ceiling. “I’m going to bed earlier from now on.”“Yeah right,” Lyall drained his last of his Capri Suns. He’d brought a whole box and they were littered around him. I wondered if Draugluin ate that much and that fast.I choked. Why was I thinki

“She did warn you Father,” Mozzy spoke up. It was creepy how he addressed Alpha as his father and kept assessing me as if I was covered in clues. Who’s side was he on?“She did?” Alpha Mother looked to her mate who faltered only a moment.“That phone call,” Shue spoke up. Everyone turned to see him scratching behind his ear, some of his hair falling over his right eye. If we weren’t in such a stressful environment, he probably would’ve yawned. Typical Shue. “I was waiting for you to get off the phone that day to ask you something. When I asked what was troubling you, you said something like Echo was going on about some pack nonsense and dropped it.”“Oh,” Alpha Mother stood up taller, ”that phone call. Honestly you are so busy I’m amazed that you can forget a phone call of that nature.” A sour taste filled my mouth. I’d never seen her stand up to Alpha or argue with him before. I guess they did this behind closed doors but it was a really unnatural sight. “Does anybody tell me anythin
Wolfed Chapter 31
Mozzy hid in the darkened corner. He’d hoped to catch Echo before she went to fetch her siblings but paused while watching her race towards them with a troubled expression. Was she worried for them? Mozzy’s tenseness towards Echo’s mood suddenly vanished when he watched her. The way the light hit her and the soft, loving expression on her face reminded Mozzy of his own mother when he watched her staring at his younger brothers after putting them to bed when they were younger. He would always peek around her arm and find their still bodies, with only their chest rising and falling, pretty boring. He’d never understood it. Now, he knew it wasn’t just a maternal instinct. It was a mother’s love. Obviously Echo wasn’t her siblings mother but she came close to being one. A pack was supposed to be a knit-tight family and would take turns caring for the pups. This pack was too large and too used to modern day ways making pack life less special. Now, Echo seemed to carry the burden of a regu

“What was that,” Jun asked me.“A sign of war.” I popped the last tater tot in my mouth, forgetting to marinate it in ketchup.“But I can’t do that?” Draco crossed his arms.“Hello there,” Twinkle-Eyes greeted our table, his posse obediently stopping behind him. Glasses girl was hiding behind the built girl who didn't seem to notice or was used to it.“What do you want,” Jun asked bitterly. Half the table growled. Only the twins, Ermengarde and I stayed silent.“You seem a little on edge. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?” Twinkle-Eyes tried to provoke Jun but I was very proud that Jun seemed to just brush it off. “Did you get that attitude from your mother,” Jun dropped his napkin on his plate. He was making a female dog joke that was so subtle I almost missed it. Twinkle-Eyes caught it unfortunately.“Funny, I just wanted to tell you that we mean you no harm and aren’t looking to encroach on your territory.”“Hear that,” Aura grinned, “they’re aliens, not wolves.”“We come in pe

I felt blood lust like I’d never felt before. Well, I least I thought I did. If this was instinct to protect my pack, it was in high gear. Lyall and the others were stunned about what I’d learned. I’d messaged Draugluin on my phone in class and no one tried to stop me. So far he remained silent on the matter but I was sure that he was jumping all over this information. If he wasn’t, it was probably because he likely didn’t have reception in his hidden cave.I was already overwhelmed with the sudden responsibilities of my job as a Theta, as a sister, as a pack member, along with my promise to Draugluin and going to school on a regular basis. Screw school. I didn’t care if I got held back a year. There were more important things happening.Alpha pulled the whole pack from work and school early for a family emergency. I couldn’t wait to leave the school that felt like a jail cell, surrounded by its new, electrical fence. I wanted to howl with glee and feel my paws beneath me, carrying me

“I’d be careful is all,” Uncle Benny hinted to me. I remembered our talk at dinner the other night and it had baffled me. Was he suggesting now that I was wooing Draugluin ? I looked up at the man standing behind me. Strong, brave, smart, handsome but also pushy, bossy and prideful. It was slightly surprising how much I knew him. Then again, we lived together.“We have to go,” Draugluin motioned for me to set Lupe down on the bed, which I didn’t do, putting him in his crib instead. Before I left, I changed his diaper and wound up the musical lamb. Lupe continued sucking the bottle but his eyes slowly got droopy. “The others are waiting outside. You are the last one I’m picking up.”“How many others are there,” Uncle Benny inquired as we left the dark bedroom. Was he jealous he didn't get to tag along?“Twenty-one altogether,” Draugluin scratched his head.“Twenty-one!” Uncle Benny almost seemed defeated. “Do you think that’s enough considering how big our pack is?”“Father thinks the l

Draugluin strapped my clothes tightly around me. We'd have to go the speed of sound in order to get back on track. The two of us stretched some before charging at full speed. The ground rose and dipped. While running, I got a to see a flash of police car lights. Two nice looking cars had had a head on collision. Out of three police officers, two were separating the two angry drivers who were shouting violently at one another. One gentleman was in a suit while the other was in casual clothing. The man in the suit looked up but I doubted he saw anything but the dim outline of wolves darting away.Soon, the landscape changed drastically. The forest turned into fields. We kept moving at a fast pace but made sure no one would see us. Draugluin and I reached the edge of Paris by sunset. We quickly morphed and dressed before trying to casually walk through the mass of bodies. The traffic wasn't too busy but the sidewalks were congested. Young couples smiled and chatted, a mother and daughte

We both dug in, yanking away the outer skin to tear into the meaty flesh. I barely chewed. All the energy I had exerted in running and the adrenaline pumping through me to keep me going had slowly made me hungry. Though I could have made it to America without eating, I was glad that this small feast allowed some rejuvenation."We'll have to bury this as discreetly as we can," Draugluin paused after getting a drink from the stream. "It will be evidence for Alpha Jon about our location if he passes through this area.""Won't he see a giant mound of dirt with poorly placed grass lumps covering it?""Not if we bury it in the slope. That's where I caught it. There's actually a little outcropping not too far from here. I was above the deer and dropped on him before he saw. It was an easy kill. We can dig into the dirt towards the bottom of the slope which will look more natural.""We'll drag blood through the grass." I felt like Miss Negative."It's the best we can do for right now. Our onl

"But-""Keep watch," Draugluin interjected. He poked his head into the dandelion-yellow lit sidewalk. I watched the back of his head swivel side to side, his muzzle peeking out from behind the thick furs of his side. Though it was spring, Draugluin still had his winter coat and it was thick and bushy like a beard but soft as bunny's fur. I wanted to snuggle my face into it. If only my fur was the same.When Draugluin crossed the street, I leaned my head out and sniffed the air while glaring intensely in every direction. My fur wasn't beautiful. At least I didn't think so. It was rough and striped with a bright, neon rainbow that didn't lay even on me at all. My green stripe was usually thicker than my pink and purple while the blue looked like a fading hair coloring. They red and yellow strips were the only consistent colors that weren't too thick or thin or too bright. I never outwardly complained because I had it easy. My curse was so tame compared to others' like Freki. My eyes dr

I walked up and pressed my body against his. Touch was very important for wolves and I felt that, despite our rank difference, Draugluin needed some sort of comforting. I could feel Mozzy's muscles tense then relax before tensing again. "It's okay," I reassured him. "Let's go but using our heads.""Alright." He stepped onto the road for a couple seconds. "We go straight for half a mile then turn right, continuing on for another two miles."After he returned to the cover of the trees, we took off. Now that I had calmed Mozzy, I mulled over what he said to me. What was bugging me wasn't the deadly poison that could be released on us. Draugluin had been taking poison over the years for immunity? Did Jun and Maengun also do it? Did Alpha Mother? What were the effects of starting to take poisons over time as children into adults?'I don't know anything about Alpha or his mate and sons. What's really going on within the pack?' I peeked at Draugluin before dodging a tree that I nearly kissed

“What do we do,” I whispered to Mozzy. With him practically covering me, I couldn’t see what was going on behind me. I almost whined in fear.Why was I acting like a frightened pup? Perhaps I didn’t want all the hard work Draugluin and I had done in Paris ruined in an instant. Maybe I didn’t want to lose the taste of freedom.There was a crunch of boots against gravel and dragging steps. One pair was getting closer to us. I trembled. I couldn’t move! The steps were coming closer!“Je peux les sentir,” it was Bayard and I hoped he wouldn’t call Alpha Jon over. The steps slowed then stopped. There was a shuffling of denim before I heard the pant of a wolf. I felt the urge to see what Bayard looked like as a wolf but I couldn’t turn. “Alpha Jon, avez-vous trouvé quelque chose?”“Non,” the alpha called back.“Merde!” Bayard snarled and...stepped down into the bushes!I shut my eyes and focused on taking deep, slow breathes. In. Out. I tried to swallow but the book was pressed against my th

than expected, Alpha had to bribe the few construction workers and carpenters of the pack that, if they could create a new, large extension of the house in the back left side before the pups were six months old, the workers wouldn't have to pay their monthly pack contribution for an entire year. The men were already planning what they would do with the extra money they'd have left over. One said he'd take his mate on a long needed vacation for the both of them. If only an alpha could take a vacation every once in a while.Alpha Mother came in with Alpha's hot mug of coffee accompanied with a side of cheese, crackers and sliced salami. Her quick barefoot steps were silent on the red, velvet carpet. After setting the tray down, she sighed. "Have you heard anything from Alpha Jon?""Not yet," Alpha took a swig of the coffee while his mate sat in one of the chairs before his desk, fiddling with the tray she'd brought all the goods on. The tapping against the bronze made Alpha's ears itch

I didn't retaliate. Now wasn't the time to squabble, playfully or no. When we reached the first level, there were two, very familiar faces standing in our path: Julias and Bayard. "Hi," Bayard sneered and tried to jump me, but Draugluin was already in his wolf form, sending the boy flying against a wall. Bayard rubbed his head but was ready to fight once more. Julias was already leaping at Mozzy, trying to tear into him but he wasn't big enough to take Draugluin down. Bayard was about to go into wolf form when I punched him down again. "Aw, did the wittle baby get a booboo? Poor baby." I taunted him to keep him distracted. Draugluin needed to take down battle experienced Julias. "You American rat. Why don't you go rot in sewers where not even the scavengers will feed on your flesh?!""What's that reference," I ducked a punch, readying my arms to block a knee. I winced as I blocked, but not from the impact. The corner of the book dug into my stomach when I ducked so low."Out of sha

Chapter 59
It was no longer common for new wolves to integrate into the Grey pack, but so many wolves had entered in the past that mating within the pack was safe. Most of the wolves weren’t related by blood. But if Lyall’s parents met and married for love, why were they pushing him to be with Marigold?Lyall slowed and laughed, enjoying the rain that slithered down his body. How had his mind changed from Lucian to his parents trying to force him into an arranged marriage? Could it have been a distraction his mind set up?“You might get sick.”Lyall peered upwards to see Marigold holding a striped black, blue and white umbrella. She looked irritated.“I’m sorry. Did Alpha send you out here? How'd you get in this school with the gate closed?” Lyall shook his hair, hands on his hips. Why hadn't he heard her coming? He would have at least heard the rain bouncing off the umbrella.“I was looking for you and peeked out the window. I thought to myself that you were an idiot, running in the rain, but

Draugluin was shaking his head. I couldn’t tell if it was disapproval or disbelief. Whichever it was, he didn’t hesitate to break up the conversation by stepping on the treadmill and changing the setting. Julianna quickly restarted her stopwatch as Draugluin started running.The show-off didn’t follow my plan at all. Instead he ran at a steady jog for fifteen minutes. Then he ran fast for ten minutes before slowing and stopping.“Twenty-five minutes and fifty-nine seconds,” Julianna lifted the watch to Alpha Jon’s eye level. He didn’t look happy at the results but didn't complain like he did with me. Hopefully he did consider the possibility that we were slightly out of shape; or doubting the Grey pack's ability.Draugluin sent me a grin. He was looking down on my tactic! His didn't seem to be much better. I balled my fists, feeling my nails dig impressions into my skin but I wouldn’t squeeze so hard as to draw blood. That would be annoying to explain and take care of. Draugluin gentl
