It took days for me to fully heal. Koguas stab wound was still deep and even when Holly stitches it closed it was still not healing properly. Finnagan was starting to get nervous with how long we had been in this safe place.
" Quinn are you sure your feeling better? We don't have to move today. "
I shook my head at him. Finnagan always put my best interest first. I stood up glad I could stand again. Kogua bent down and motioned for me to climb on.
" Kogua I'm more than capable of walking on my own two feet. "
He gave me a strange look. Then chuckled and shook his head.
" That's fine you will have to ride one of us, we're shifting so we can cover more ground. They will expect us to walk with you as you haven't gotten your wolf yet. They won't expect us to carry you as most can't hold on to ride. "
I looked at Finnagan and Holly who were already preparing for the shift themselves by only wearing their underwear. I had seen Most of the pack in their skimpy nothing before. We typically aren't bothered by it since Werewolves shift naked but something about turning back to Koguabto see him in his underwear sent blood rushing to my face. He saw the bright red against my face and smiled.
" Glad that mate bond is starting to establish. "
Finn chuckled at Koguas words and trolled his eyes.
" In another week she will get her wolf and shift for the first time. My little girl will be all grown up. "
He always called me that. His little girl, anytime I started acting my age. It was easy to believe him my father. easy to forget the people I used to know. My old pack and my parents. Most or my life I'd been with Finnagan.
" Something the matter Quinn? "
Kogua looked at me in confusion. I could feel the warm tears that traced down my cheeks. What had caused these to fall?
" I'm fine I'm just thinking about stuff. Nothing to worry about. "
I smiled at him. Kogua made it so easy to believe in true love and mates and forever. He didn't see me as a useless omega he saw me as his mate. He was like Finnagan, a good man. A loud sound rang out near the building we were in.
" Quinn grab on we gotta go! "
Koguas voice sent me into a flight mode a si climbed onto him. The door shattered open as a big guy entered the room.
" What's the hurry wolf boy, sit down and shut up! "
Kogua guarded me from the large man. He and twi more guys walked in. One was thin and short than the other two big burly guys. They all had dark hair and deep purple eyes. The thinner one eyed us.
" Finnagan Ryder, there is a huge bounty on your daughter's head. She is wanted alive. Do how or better yet why are you on my territory wolf blood. "
Finnagan looked at Kogua who held me from the eyes of the men.
" Sir please my daughter is not guilty of what they have accused her. She is being hunted for being the mate of the future Alpha of Cresent moon. "
The man looked at Kogua. His eyes scanning every inch of my mate. It made me uneasy.
" So you're Benjamin's little pup. The damn brat that cause the end of my treaty with Cresent moon. Looks like I've found a two for one. "
Finnagan stood before us, his body becoming a shield.
" Finny boy calm down I think we can make an arrangement. I didn't realize you were bringing me such a delicate peace offering. The daughter of a rouge mated to the son of an Alpha. I want to see how this plays out. You will move to the main house. This house can't be protected. I need my bargaining chips in perfect health. "
Holly stood beside Finnagan.
" Sir what will you do? "
The man looked at Holly. His eyes glowing with power.
" I'm going to take everything Benjamin wants and keep it for myself. With out an heir he can't pass on the title. With that knowledge he will surely come for his boy and when he does I will take my revenge for what that worthless mutt did my family! To my pack and then I will allow you to leave. "
I watched him turn around and pushed my way to the front. I needed to know what happened I grabbed the man's arm as he turned wrinkly to look at me dead in my eyes.
" Sir what happened? who are you? tell me more! "
Koguas pulse quickened as Finnagan and Holly begged for my life at this man's feet. The man held up his hand and the room went silent he looked at me and his eyes filled with tears.
" Child is your mother Joslyn? "
It had been so long I didn't remember my mother's name anymore. Finnagans eyes were misted with tears as the man looked at me.
" My name is Matthew, Joslyn was my little sister. I am the Leader of the northern Werebears. Welcome to your new home. "
I looked at him. I was confused my mother was a wolf I watched her shift many times. Her wolf was red and brown with bright green eyes.
" How could you be my mothers brother? she's a wolf? "
He smiled looking at me as his eyes suddenly changed. from purple to yellow, to green and then blue. His face switching from a narrow chin to a long chin to a cleft chin. His hair changing from black to blonde to red to brown. I stepped bavk what was this man.
" I'm Matthew Gray my father was a strange man that never fit into a pack. My father was a unique and rare breed of beast. Me and my sister are Shifters. You are as well my child. When you get your beast be prepared for what that means. "
I looked at Matthew and felt my head exploding. I wasn't a wolf. I looked at Finnagan who's face was dark as he looked away. What was going to happen now. In a short couple days I would not be getting my wolf. I'd become a shifter. I felt light headed and the last thing I felt before I was consumed by darkness was Koguas hands catching me.
