BANG BANG
"HEY!"
BANG BANG
"WAKE UP ROGUE!"
WTF is going on? Who is yelling?
Prying my eyes open, rolling over to see who was yelling, I fell on to the hard cement floor.
The fall kick starting my memory. The wolves, running, the pack, THE PACK Sh**.
throwing myself forward, to see the Beta and 2 other men and one extremely snobby looking shewolf.
"What happened?" my voice came out raspy and cracking. Dang, I need some water.
" You passed out after doing that voodoo crap, whatever that was." The Beta man barks at me.
"Not voodoo. Magic, I placed a barrier around the territory so anyone intending to infict harm inside the packground couldn't detect us."
Snobby bit**laughs, actually no more like cackles at my statement.
"And you aren't intending to do harm? who are you anyway?!" Beta man looks pissed. She has even spoken, as am I.
Taking in the people in front of me, I can tell that they all hold a high ranking, all but her.
"No I'm not,. I only stumbled upon this pack while running from those mutts back there. I'm not the bad guy here. I was being chased. I placed the barrier, which, by the way, will stay up for as long as the Alpha stays Alpha."
The shewolf looks like she sucked on a lemon after i said Alpha, hmm a rank hopper maybe? Not the Luna no way, but she wants to be.
"Jessica, I think it is time you went back up stairs. You do not need to be down here." one of the guys sounded off, I'm guessing the Gamma.
" The hell I don't!" she whines. Oh, I can't stand girls like her. Bet she was the mean girl in high school too, dated the most popular boys, and a cheerleader.
" uhhh don't think so. I mean I get why the Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Head Warrior are here. But you, you aren't Luna nor do you hold any rank." staring her square in the eye, lifting my eyebrows ever so slightly.
stomping her foot and letting out a angry squeak, she turns and huffs her way up the stairs. i watched her the whole way up, seeing the light from upstairs leak into the dungeon I'm currently being held.
" You are a wolf." It wasn't a question from the beta but a statement. "Yet you don't smell like a wolf, or not just a wolf, which isn't possible."
"I am a wolf, but also a witch." standing at my feet, someone must have dressed me, in sweatpants and a large tshirt that smells manly but also sweet. I like it. I grab the bars in front of me to steady myself, and all the men growl trying to stop me.
" Being both isn't possible, and how are you touching those bars? They are made of sliver. You should be screaming in pain right now!"
" well I am. I mean you saw both. Listen, I'm tired and hungry, so if maybe you could get your Alpha down here, we could talk and i could get out of your hair ."
" No can do rogue. Alpha wont be back till tomorrow, so you are gonna sit tight because he is very interested in speaking with you."
"My name is Star you mutt! And I am not a rogue, I'm a lone wolf!" looking at them all in the eyas one by one, leaving the Beta for last. Nope, not budging there, I guess.
Sighing as I dropped down onto the cot they had so graciously given me, I finally looked away.
"Alright, can I at least have some food? Maybe a blanket. I'm freezing down here."
With a slight nod of the head from each man, they filed out and up the stairs the cheerleader went up not long before. Counting the steps as they walked till the door creaked open, then shut with a loud BANG
Alister's POV
I'm antsy, I'm tired, and I just need to get back to my pack. My Beta Aaron informed me that 2 days ago a rogue shewolf burst into our territory-my territory and did some sh**,bringing a fleet of unknown pack wolves following her. No doubt she stole something from the pack and now she is bringing us in on the drama. She's currently sitting in the pack cells waiting for me to get home to investigate her about her wrong doings and inform the pack she ran from.
The Alpha conference I am attending is boring. Just a bunch of old arrogant filled male wolves flaunting their wealth and women.
I'm supposed to stay until tomorrow to talk to the council, no doubt to talk about my pack needing a Luna, and getting a chosen mate, but that isn't going to happen. I'm waiting for the mate the goddess has chosen for me. If she doesn't come, then I'll lead alone.
The thought makes my wolf Drake growl .
"We WILL find our mate, she is out there."
" I know drake, we just have to find her."
The only good of the rogue entering my pack is because it's the perfect excuse to leave the confrance and head home early. im not telling Aaron. Telling him meant Jessica would find out and I wouldn't need any more of her pleas to become my luna.
Just because I'm waiting for my mate doesn't mean I haven't had my fair share of women. I am over 400 years old. You tend to get bored. Never has it been more than one night, and never been with my own pack members. Which makes my Jessica situation all the more infuriating.
Tapping my finger on the oak table, I listen to an alpha drone about the witches and how they are becoming a problem. An extremist, Alpha, thinks anyone that isn't a wolf has no reason to be on this earth. Disgusting.
Finally, the talking stops and the omegas catering the event are ushering us into the dining room to eat the early lunch they have prepared.
If I left now, it would only take me 2 hours, by jet, to get back to the pack. Altering my course I went in search After Alpha Archer, the Alpha hosting this month. It'll be held on my pack grounds next. Archer is only 100 years younger than me and he seems to hold his position well. He is defiantly one of the more level-headed Alphas there. Suddenly, I saw the mess of red and orange hair. He with his Luna, hugging her close to him, streaking his claim. Annabell is extremely tiny compared to his almost 7ft frame, but she stands about 5ft 8ins.
She's beautiful in her own way, blonde-blue-eyed and extremely slender. Not my type though.
"Sorry to interrupt here, but i have some issues back at home that need attending to. Sooner rather than later,so i am going to head out. I will be sending out conference emails for the next date of our conference" grabbing his hand firmly, " I look forward to discussing what i missed when we meet again. If anything of importance should arise, give me a call and we can sort it out then."
" Oh, alright Alpha Allister, hope all is well back in your pack. Please take some sandwiches the omegas prepared to last you, your journey." His Alpha arua oozing, normally our conversation would be relaxed, some banter even. But in front of all the other Alphas, we can't show any favoritism,and with me having the largest pack in North America, my option weights heavily around here.
"Thank you Alpha Acher, all should be well. I will take you up on the food. The roast beef and provolone smell delicious."
Taking large strides towards the food, looking straight ahead, I snatched 4 sandwiches and headed to grab my bag i packed last night.
Walking down the stairs, an omega is standing at the end holding the keys to my jeep.
"Here you are Alpha. It's right outfront."
" Thank you, Jeremy, right?" looking surprised, I even knew his name. He just nodded. The fact that someone around here didn't know his name infuriates me.
patting his back, I walked right out the front door. i wanted to get home. As did my wolf, he was antsy, pacing my mind ready to cross our own border.
Nodding to the warriors posted at the gates, i floor it kicking up dirt as I sped away. Home, here I come.
