"Maxillius! Just wait a second!" He grabbed onto my arm and spun me around to face him. "Everything is going to be fine. Your pack will be okay, you will be okay, we will be okay. Please, believe me." He wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me to him. I pushed him away, glaring at him. "You're right. My pack will be okay but you're wrong about us. If you're just going to bring danger to my pack then I want you out of here by tomorrow." The hope in his green eyes died, reminding me of what the forest looks like after a large storm. "That's final." His lips thinned and he stared at me blankly. "If you're going to be this way then you are never going to have that happy ending that you want." My breath caught in my throat. He knows I want that more than almost anything in the world. How dare he bring that up! I took a deep breath. My pack will always come first. "Tomorrow," I remind him. "Don't even bother to say goodbye to me." I looked over his features one last time, knowing I'll miss him no matter what I do, and turned around. I have a few things to settle.

Xavier sighed and tried to move in front of me without scaring me into backing away from him. "It's okay little one," he said as came closer to me. I felt so tiny in his presence, especially in wolf form. He knelt down and tried to move closer but I whimpered and backed up more into the tree. He sighed again before trying again and I tired to put all my fears away as he once again reached out his hand. I put my head down, hoping that if I couldn't see him, I wouldn't be scared. As I felt his hand on my back and felt tingles explode, I jumped but then relaxed as I got used to it. I calmed down more as he picked up my small frame and held me close before whispering into my ear, "What has happened to you little one?" *~*~*~* Celeste has always been running. When she was little a group of rouges killed most of her pack and the remaining wolves ran, including her. Over the years they have slowly split off until it is only her and her mother running. When the rouges once again find them her mother spared her own life to keep her beloved runt safe. She ran, but eventually she could no longer run for her tiny body hadn't had the energy. Now she has been found by a new pack, The Paramount pack, and she is surprised when she finds her mate. Because how can she, an innocent little runt, have a mate such as Xavier, one of the strongest alphas in the country?

"I swear to every god out there that I will kill you if you don't tell me what I need to know!" The man shook in fear but his eyes held defiance. "She is a hybrid, why does she even matter?" He tried to push himself out of my grip and I bared my fangs at him, warning him to stop. "I am the one asking the questions here and I want to know where you people have taken her. Tell me now or you will never see the light of day again. Or maybe you will, when your guts are splayed out in front of you!" He started to chuckle. "The Salvus that I know would never do such a thing to an old friend of his." I pulled him closer and slammed him back against the wall, making the dent that was there worse. "That Salvus died when you people took her from me!" *~*~*~* Salvus was never supposed to meet Mischen. He just happened to take a wrong turn and ended up in her pack. He was hated at first because of him being a vampire but he doesn't care when he sees her. Immediately he knew that she was his beloved but she was young at the time. Deciding that he still wanted her but knowing he couldn't have her because of her age, Salvus stays close to her. One day, he is told her secret. Mischen is a hybrid. Hybrids had been 'outlawed' for years. If one was born they are to be killed, thus the reason why Mischen being a hybrid is kept a secret. Only it wasn't a secret anymore. She had been discovered. So now Mischen and Salvus are on the run.
