The Broken She-wolf

Chapter 6: Josh's and Gregg's birthday

     It's finally end of the month and Josh's and Gregg's birthday was the next day.  They both feel anxious about leaving, but at the same time excited, they have been training for the three weeks.  They were on a mission that is entrusted on them, and don't want to fail.  They take a step into Allison's old room in the attic to look around to see if maybe by luck find some clue as to where she would go.  As they step in Gregg notices a scent, a very faint scent, but enough for him to take notice.  It smelled of ocean mist and pine needles, and this aroused him some.  "This scent, it smells good really good," Gregg thought to himself, "it's her, now I really have to find her."  Gregg realized that the scent smelled like Allison and that her scent aroused him.  She was his mate.  His mate whom he hurt and turned against just like everybody else.

     "You awake over there?"  Josh waving his hand in front of his face.

     "Josh," Gregg starts coming back from his daze and thoughts, "we need to find her, I really need to make things right."

     "We all do Gregg," Josh states seriously.

     "No me most of all," Gregg now looking in Josh's eyes showing so much remorse as tells him, "She is my mate, the worst mate even before I realized that she is my mate."

     "Gregg, I don't care how long it takes, but we will find her," Josh reassures him, "and when we do and if she refuses to accept you as a mate what will you do?"

     "I will do my best to show how sorry I am, but if that doesn't work I will accept her rejection," Gregg sighed sadly, "I think that will be the respectful thing to do since I was a jack ass and hurt her, I can only abide by her wishes."  Pain showing through his eyes as he is stating this, "I just hope I can convince her to give me a chance to show her that I have changed."

     "I will stand beside you," Josh smiles, "but I will make sure you keep to what you just said."

     "I hold you to that Josh," Gregg agrees.  They look around, but with fail as to find a clue.  Its about time for their birthday party to start.  They weren't eager to go as they wanted to leave right away, but also didn't want to disappoint anybody for not going.  They reluctantly they make their way to the party which was being held in a grassy field next to the pack house.  It was decorated with gold and white streamers and balloons along the fence a dance floor in the middle of several round tables decorated with gold and white table clothes, alternating between each other, in the corner to the pack house had a bar for serving and a buffet filled with hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, macaroni salad, and chips.  They mingled with everybody talking about mainly them leaving to look for Allison.

     "Greggy," Savannah says walking up and a pout on her lips, "you been ignoring me for three weeks, and I am feeling neglected."

     "Savannah," Gregg sighed and rolled his eyes, "I been very busy you know that."

     "Your not busy now," Savannah flirts and giggles, "you can spend time with me now."

     "Savannah I don't want to spend time with you now," Gregg dismisses her flirty giggle, "I have other guests to tend to."

     "You know you want to spend time with me Greggy," Savannah pouts thinking that will get him to change his mind.  He could never resist her pout.

     "Savannah I am not interested and I am leaving here shortly to go look for Allison," Gregg coldly replies to her as he starts to leave, but stopped short.

     "We can have some fun before you leave before you go look for the tramp,"  Savannah replies arrogantly.

     "That tramp!?" Gregg angrily replies his eyes growing dark to show he means business, "Allison is not a tramp, she is innocent and sweet and also my mate, so watch what you say!"

     "Hmph, innocent and sweet you know she has been meeting a man after school,"  Savannah scoffs, "she probably opened her legs to him."

     "She hasn't, I have talked to him and all she did was clean his house for money," Gregg even more angry, "now just leave I am not spending time with you!"  Savannah storms off annoyed.  "That arrogant ass is going to be like that we will just see," Savannah thinks to herself.  Gregg turns towards a group of their warriors chatting, they were giving him and Josh advice on how to handle themselves in case they are in a bind with any dangers they may face.  Jacob is talking to his mate telling her that he will make sure he keeps in contact to let her know that he is safe and not to worry about a thing.  Finally after talking they were eager and walks up to Alpha Don along with Jacob.

     "Father," Greg smiles to his mom giving her a hug and shaking his hand, "we have decided to go now."

     "Okay son," He replies back to Gregg, "here are some gifts that may help along the way."  He hands them a few weapons.  Wooden stakes, guns with silver bullets, sword that has a black leather handle with gold weaved throughout and a pure silver blade.  They bowed their heads with respect and bid farewell.  They get in a '67 shelby cobra grey mustang with black pin stripes going along the hood, roof, and trunk.  The interior was black and the seats were leather.  The trunk was already packed as they did it a week ago except for some snacks, they snagged some food from the party for snacks to last for a little bit.  They took of playing music and debating on where to go first.

     They all finally agree on the bus station, since they didn't require names, and stopped in a nearby town Brownville.  "May I help you," the attendant asks as they walked up.

     "About a month ago did you sell a young girl a ticket?"  Gregg asks and continues describing Allison, "she is sixteen, with long blonde hair, ocean blue eyes, and a beautiful face."

     "Who is asking?" asks suspiciously raising an eyebrow.

     "Just some people who need to make things right," Gregg replies truthfully for he thought this was the better options.

     "I did," Maverick glares at them knowing who they were right then, "but I cannot tell you where she is at because I don't know if she has moved on from where she went, and I do not remember where her ticket ended from me."

     Gregg looks at him sensing that he is lying, but doesn't press because he thought that he still wouldn't get answers, "okay then, but we do regret what we did and really want to make amends with her and tell her she is sorry so if you change your mind her is my number."  With that Gregg gave Maverick a small smile and walked away.  "Well we know she took the bus, but how far we don't know," Gregg is standing against the car talking to Josh and Jacob, "do you have any ideas where to start?"

     "I say we start with packs here in the east," Jacob suggests and gives his reason.   There a lot of werewolf packs in America and that would be the most logical.

     "I agree with Jacob," Josh comments looking at the both of them.  Jacob looks at Josh to see if he meant what he said, and to Jacob's astonishment, Josh meant what he said.

     "Okay so its settled," Gregg smiles, "road trip."  Gregg is excited about a road trip with the guys.  Usually he went on road trips with his mom and dad, he couldn't wait to go on this road trip with them two since they have been friends for a long time, Josh more so than Jacob.  They head off to the first pack named they red-eye pack and lived in New York.  Josh is driving and Gregg quickly makes a phone call to the Alpha of the pack, his name was Alpha Jason, so he could get permission to go on his territory.

     "Alpha Jason," Gregg starts when Alpha Jason answers his phone, "my name is Gregg and I am the future alpha of the crescent moon pack, and I was wondering if I could get permission to enter your pack, we are looking for someone and not looking to cause any trouble with anybody there."

     "Looking for some one?"  Alpha Jason asks, "I guess you have permission and could you please stop by and have a meeting with me, when you arrive?"

     "Yes I will," Gregg agrees, "we will be there in about a day or two."  Finally Gregg  hangs up and nods at Josh that they had permission and step on the gas.  Jacob stayed quiet in the backseat as Josh and Gregg are talking.  He is irritated that he has to be with these two and can't do anything about it and starts to look out the window taking in the scenery and thinks about his mate.  He makes a phone call to talk to her to ease his mind.  Two months have gone by, they have visited all the packs along the east coast and ended up heading home after they got done with the pack in Ohio.  They needed a break as Gregg was getting frustrated and irritable along with Josh and Gregg needed to go to school and make arrangements about doing their classes online.   They arrive home and after about two months go buy as they take go to school and get caught up on whats going on with the pack there, they leave and continue their search.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Allison has been in the pack for about a month and started a routine, she would wake up at five in the morning for that is when she is either startled out of sleep from her dreams, or wake up from an intriguing dream and made her wonder what the dream meant.  She would head down to the gym and exercise for an hour starting with bikes and treadmills then at the punching bag, and after a couple months she would alternate from using gloves to not using gloves.  She then would go upstairs and take a shower get dressed in nicer clothes, go down for breakfast, where she would have breakfast with Harley and then they would go meet everybody and end up walking in the city, and every other day training with each other getting stronger and with the help of James and Gwen.

     Matt and Allison started to date, and they would always try and find a reason to get alone time, so sometimes they would just wander off to go make out a little.  As they did that this time they see a skinny lady watching them closely.  She had long black hair with dark almost black eyes, her skin was pale against her black hair but it was slender.  She wore a long black dress that ended at her ankles and long black painted fingernails.  Matt realized she was a witch, "what nothing else catch your attention."

     She smiles at him amused by his comment and turns to look at Allison.  They both stare at each other in the eye for what seems like an hour, but only a couple minutes when they lady smiled, "you are a special girl aren't you?"

     "What do you mean by that," Allison confused at what she meant.

     "Oh you don't know yet," she smiles at her and turns to Matt, "keep an eye on her and keep her safe, she is special."  With that the lady soon vanishes leaving Matt and Allison puzzled at the conversation.

     "I wonder what she meant by that," Allison's face contorted with the look of confusion on her face.

     "I don't know," Matt wraps his arms around her waist looking around protectively, "but I think we should go."

     "I agree lets go back to the group," Allison states as they start walking back towards the group.

     "Where did you guys wonder off to?" Harley asks with a smirk and teases, "go make out again huh."

     "No," Allison blushes, "we were talking and walking around."

     "Then something weird happened,"  Matt continues while Allison quiets down because she is blushing, "we seen this witch and she told me to keep her safe for she is special."

      "Did she say what she meant by that?"  Harley asks concerned.

     "No she left after that," Matt answers, "but I think we should head back to the pack and talk to the Alpha and Luna, they might have answers."  Looking down at Allison since he is 6'5 inches tall, black messy hair that made him look hot, dark green eyes, and a masculine jawline.  His body was very muscular with twelve pack abs, as they have been training every other day, arm muscles buldge through his tight black t'shirt.  Allison nods her head and they all walk back to their car and this time it was a '65 blue Chevy impala that James and Gwen gave to Allison so she could get around.  Allison loved that car and took very good care of her car.  They made their way back to the pack territory nodding at patrol as they went by them.  Both Matt and Allison go up to Gwen and James and tells them they need to talk about something.

     "It sounds important," James raised his eyebrow with concern.

     "It is important James," Allison replied and knowing what he was thinking, "and no I am not leaving the pack."

     "Okay why don't we all go to our office," James guestured and led the way holding the Luna around the waist.  She was two days away from giving birth and he always made sure she had support since it has been hard on her carrying the baby.  They enter James' office which Allison had never been in.  It was big with a big dark brown oak desk in front of the window, with a big black leather chair on the side of the window one on, two black leather chairs on the other their side a couch against the right wall and the left wall had a big bookshelf filled with many books and a couple cupboards.

     "Whats going on?" James asks sitting behind his desk with Gwen sitting on the couch to listen.

     "We had a strange encounter with a witch down in the city," Matt states.

     "A witch was anybody injured?"  James asks concerned cupping his chin in his hands.

     "No it wasn't like that James," Allison pipes up, "she told Matt to keep me safe that I was special."

     "Did she tell you what she meant by that?"  James asks them.

     "No, but I have to admit I been having really strange dreams that had someone in it, but not the same person,"  Allison mentions this to him and continues, "and I recognize her from one of my dreams."

     "Did she hurt you in your dream?" James asks, "or was it in the same manner as you met her today."

     "It was the same, but different," Allison said, "in my dream she didn't say anything because I woke up before she could."

     "Well lets keep this between us, does anybody else know about it?"  James asks.

     "Only us, Harley, and our friends," Allison and Matt both tell him.

     "Okay nobody else is to know about this, I will look into what she could mean," James commands in an alpha tone which never seemed to work on Allison, but she followed his commands out of respect for him and Gwen.  James then mind links the others and tells them the same thing to which he was immediately answered with yes alpha by all of them.

     "Okay Alpha James," both Allison and Matt say to him and took their leave.  Matts arm is around Allison's waist pulling her close to him and kissing her forhead.

     "Dear," Gwen pipes up, "I knew she was special from the day I looked at her."

     "Is that so love," James smirks getting up and walks over to her, "do you know something I don't my queen?"

     "Just this feeling I get off her," Gwen smiles seductively as James approached her, "and I noticed she isn't phased by your alpha tone, but respects it just the same."

     "I have noticed that too," James bends over and kisses Gwen so passionately that when they pulled away they were panting.  James helps her up to walk out.

     "Honey we need to go to the doctor," Gwen states wincing in pain from labor.  James picks her up bridal style rushes her to the doctor.  Harley and Allison already in the waiting room since they were mind linked.  After what was hours of labor, Gwen finally gives birth to a baby boy the future alpha of the New Moon Pack.  Everybody was excited and taking pictures after.  Little did Allison know that Gregg and her brothers were looking for her.
