Wolfed Chapter 29
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
Wolfed Chapter 33
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

I could begin to see a dim light grow brighter. As we reached a steep incline, I noticed a building that resembled a ski resort cabin sitting in the bottom of a valley. Seeing how far the light reached outward made me wince slightly. I bet if someone stared hard enough, the reflection of the light in our eyes would make them strongly aware of our presence.Marigold took the lead, following a deer path. I followed but kept my eyes glued to the house. I examined every window, door and room from what I could see from my vantage point. It all seemed oddly quiet but shadows moved along the walls. A growl rose in my throat. Something was wrong or perhaps I was just suspicious of everything but I wouldn’t throw any possibilities out of the window just yet.After a short walk, my group was in position. The side of the house was plainer than I’d imagined it to be. There was no pool or anything fancy, just an expanse of grass and a small deck with a few chairs dotted here and there. Two men stoo

Well those mongrels were surrounded by humans with guns and I didn’t feel like dying. It would take about thirty bullets to kill a werewolf my size but there were enough men to get the job done.“All you do is run. Run, run, run, run, run,” the angry man prattled. “I want results. Now!”“We’re giving you all we have,” a voice I didn’t recognize nearly shouted back at the man with restrained annoyance but also with a hint of fear. “My pack is more important.”“Well, you very well know your entire packs' lives are at stake.” The first man chuckled maniacally. My ears flattened in horror. That was the scariest laugh I’d ever heard.A sudden thumping distracted the first man. Then there was a roar of rage. “What?!?!”“Outside,” a new, younger voice spoke up. That boy on the porch! The little snitch!“You better not have called back up.” The gruff man seemed to be speaking to the pack’s alpha.“Who could I have called? All forms of communication with anyone outside your agency and my pack h
