“I think so” I mutter, knowing she can still hear me.
“I’m coming in” She replies and opens my door, my eyes fill with tears as she rushes to hug me.
I pull her close and take in her scent, shuddering that I could’ve lost her. She rubs gently circles on my back as droplets of tears turn into a little stream.
“We are safe” Mum mutters over and over, I try to pull myself together but the pain and the numbness push all my emotions out.
“I know, but it will never be over” I sob, Mum laughs slightly and hugs me closer.
“It will, we are the strongest pack around here,” she says as she pulls away from me.
She pulls out my unused suitcase and plops it onto my bed, I tilt my head as I watch her pull clothes from my wardrobe.
“We need to leave here, Percy has found us somewhere else to go” she mutters more to herself than me.
“Okay, I’ll pack don’t worry,” I say as I take the clothes from her and place them in the suitcase.
“Good, be ready in thirty minutes,” She says before rushing out of my room.
I sigh and shove all the rest of my clothes in, I look around my room and grab my pictures, I wrap them in a blanket and place them carefully into the case. The clock on my wall chimes and I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
This land has been ours since before I was born, now we have to leave due to hunters and vampires. What the hell happened to the world where we didn’t interact with anyone outside our pack? Why are we being targeted? And why can’t we just say here?
These questions circle my mind as I close up my case.
“You okay?” Reece’s voice breaks my thoughts and I look up to him.
“Yeah I’m fine, I think” My brow furrows.
“I’ll get your case” He smiles at me, I nod and he walks over to hug me.
I gasp as a tingling starts up in my body, his eyes glow red and I put my lips to his. The mate bond demanding to be completed.
I close my eyes as he deepens the kiss, all thoughts are lost as I focus on making my wolf happy.
“Whoa, chill out” I hear Jake say and I pull away from Reece.
“That mate bond is going to be the death of us” Reece laughs and I join in as he picks up my case.
A howl has my head tilting “Let’s go” Jake says and I nod while walking by Reece.
Car’s line our drive, my parents wave me over to the jeep and I jump in the back while Reece puts my case in the boot.
“This is a new beginning, we were overdue a move anyway” Mum smiles sadly, the look in her eyes tells me she is just as unhappy about the move as I am.
“As long as the pack is together it doesn’t matter” I declare in my most confident voice.
“Yeah” Mum mutters in reply and I turn my head away from her gaze.
I stare out the window as the Jeep pulls away from the only place I have ever known, Reece puts his arm around me and I sigh as the tingles start up again.
I put my head on his shoulder and watch the world pass us by.
It takes us three hours on the road to reach our new place, I growl when I see it. The place looks like it is about to fall down.
“It’s not much but it’s the only thing we could find at short notice” My dad grumbles before jumping out.
Percy joins us and I grin at him, his eyes glance towards my arm and I lift it to see the black spider-like veins still there. I raise an eyebrow to Reece but he shrugs.
“Maybe the pack need to have a run or something to make the bond again?” He mutters in my ear and I nod at him.
“Let’s go for a run!” I cry, all the wolves cheer in agreement and I laugh as Percy Jumps into the air, his shift completing so fast that if I had blinked I would have missed it.
The rest of the pack shift and I close my eyes as I let my wolf out, she pushes the shift more and the shift completes faster than it’s ever done before.
“You’re learning” Reece laughs and I huff at him.
I set off running, at least this place has some woods to run in I think to myself. I feel more than see Reece by my side, he is so close I can feel him brushing against my fur.
The pack fall in behind and around me, a feeling of pure bliss enters my soul and I lift my nose to the sky. The howl that pours from me has tones of pain and fear, the pack join me and we all howl out our emotions.
I switch the howl into one of love and the pack change too, the howl so haunting that I bet the whole world could hear it if we wanted them to.
“Nat your fur is changing back to white” Reece says as the howl cuts off.
I bark and wag my tail before lopping off to jump fallen logs.
Chapter Twenty one
“It’s time, your matting bond needs to be completed,” My mum says, I nod and walk towards Reece. I let the wolf see through my eyes and I feel she pushing towards him.
“I don’t know what to do,” He says, I shake my head and grab his arm. I close my eyes and let the wolf show him what to do.
He gasps then lets go of me. He shows his vampire side and we circle each other, I growl at him and he hisses. I can see the humour in his eyes as we perform the first stage of the bond.
I lift my hand up and he joins his hand to mine, I close my eyes and we slowly walk closer together. I hear a cheer and nearly lose my focus, Reece gently squeezes my hand and I open my eyes to see his fangs jutting out from his lip.
I nod and tilt my head, his eyes hold mine as he bites down on my neck. I turn my head so I can bite him too. I feel him nod and I let my fangs free, I bite down on his neck and blood drips into my throat.
I let go and let out a howl as the bond starts to open between us, Reece howls as well and I smile at how good he is.
I hug him and he smiles at me, our minds intertwine and I can hear what he is thinking. I know he can hear me too.
“What's the next stage?” He asks in our bond and I shake my head at him.
“Mating” I laugh at him when I see his eyes widen.
“Don’t worry, we don’t have to complete that part for a while” I mutter into his ear and he nods.
A cheer rings in my ears as the pack laugh and joke, I smile and I see Jake watching from a nearby tree.
He walks over to us and hugs us, my brother kisses my head then walks off to my parent's side.
“The food is ready” I hear Percy yell from the other side of the house.
I laugh and rush to the food, I feel Reece pick me up and he uses his speed to get us there first.
“Hey, no fair!” Ivan yells as he runs towards us.
“You snooze you lose!” Reece says and grabs me a plate.
I sit down on the grass and watch the pack as I take a bite out of the burger Percy made, Reece sits next to me and play with my hair. His eyes glow red and I laugh at him.
“I’m so glad I found you, I can’t believe it’s only been a few weeks. It feels like forever” He says.
“I’m glad I ran off and you found me, in this world everything seems to go fast however it’s just normal time” I reply with a smile lighting up my lights.
“Here is too forever,” He says and lifts his cup.
I grab mine and gently hit his cup as he laughs. Jake and Ava sit next to us and I see Dar playing with one of the younger pups.
“He has grown so much,” I say, Ava, nods and nudges her food around.
“Wait where is his dad? Where's your mate, Ava?” I ask, her face tells me he either didn’t make it or someone has him locked up.
“He was taken away from us, I don’t know where” She replies tears rolling down her face.
“Did someone say, mate?” I hear Percy chime in, a man stands behind him and I gasp. Avas head snaps up when she catches his scent.
I smile and she cries out and launches herself at him, her mate smiles at her and he catches her.
They kiss and I look away, she giggles and they run off.
“Hope they are not off to make more littl
e kiddies” Percy laughs and I roll my eyes at him.
Epilogue
3 years later…….
“Don’t forget to call me!” My mum screams from the house.
“I won’t I promise” I yell back, Jake laughs at me before shifting.
Ivan nods to me and I turn away from him as he shifts, and wait for my brothers to finish before I close my eyes and let the shift begin.
“I’ll run by your side,” Reece says just as my shift completes.
I huff at him and we set off, the bag on my bag shuffles as I run but I ignore it, Reece stays by my side as my brothers stayed behind me.
I howl, letting my pack know that this is not goodbye forever. I hear my parents howl back and soon the whole pack join in.
We run for hours, jumping fallen logs and dodging bushes before we reach the human world.
I dash behind a tree and shift, once in my human form I stretch and pull my clothes on.
“Do you think we are safe?” Jake says as he walks from behind his tree.
“Let’s find out, Percy gave us this task and we cannot disappoint him” I reply, Reece grins and we head for somewhere to stay.
“Here should be good,” Ivan says after an hour of walking.
“Thank goodness, I’m shattered” I reply.
We rush into the hotel and I gasp at the golden beams, Reece shuts my mouth and wraps his arm around me.
“Two rooms please,” Jake says, the reception lady scoffs at us and I roll my eyes as Jake pulls out a wallet full of money.
The woman's eyes widen but she inputs our request and I grin as she gives us the keys.
I rush the lift and wait for the rest to join me.
“This is so fancy” Jake mutters with distaste in his voice.
“It’s awesome!” I reply while bouncing on my feet waiting to go to my room.
I laugh as the lift’s doors open to our floor “Come on!” I say as I grab Reece’s hand and drag him out.
“We need to get a plan together first” Jake kills my buzz and I grumble at him.
“Remember what happened last time we didn’t have a plan?” He mutters and I roll my eyes as we head to the room my brothers will share.
Jake pulls out a map once we get into his room, I nod at the map and pull out a pen to mark on it.
“So we need to train if we are going to fulfil Percy’s wishes we need to be the best we can be,” He says and I nod.
I zone out of the conversation and wait for the boys to stop talking about plans.
“Let’s get some sleep” Jake says after three hours of his voice ringing in my ears.
“Thank god” I reply.
Reece laughs and we go to find our room. I shove the door open and sigh as Reece kisses my neck, I tilt my head and his fangs gently slide against my skin.
I close my eyes as his fangs sink into my vein, his love for me beating at my mind. Once he has fed he lets me go, I sit on the bed and wait for him to come sit down with me.
“This is going to be the best and worst mission ever” He mutters, the worry clear in his eyes.
“Don’t worry if we could save our pack we can do this!” I smile and get up to cuddle him from behind.
He turns and hugs me back, I pull him towards the bed and he laughs before picking me up and throwing me into the bed.
I giggle as he lays down next to me, his arms close around me and I sigh and the feeling of being safe rushes my veins.
“Good night,” I say as I yawn, my eyes closing on their own.
“Good night, see you tomorrow” Reece laughs and I feel him kiss my head before nuzzling my neck.
I let the darkness take over as my mind shuts off.
