Complete Me

Lucid Dreams

“Simon!!!”

I scream while running full speed towards the speed boats as they pull away from the harbor. Hunters have taken a few betas hostages and one Luna.

My Luna.

Simon.

Percy is howling and crying in my head as we sprint like our very soul depends on it. My paws bleed underneath me and my claws grip the earth as I launch myself towards the nearest boat and land, attacking every human within reach. I can no longer see them normally. All I see are skeletons with organ outlines glowing in red. It’s very dangerous for a wolf to become so angry they turn blood lusted but I didn’t care. They were about to steal my whole life from me if I didn’t act soon.

It takes a moment to realize nobody is actually alive on this boat. I’ve killed them all within the blink of an eye. But what I do notice are the whimpering sounds coming from the cage to the far right of me.

I quickly jump and tear the cover off and s***h the bars before I realize it isn’t Simon.

It’s all the betas they were planning on taking.

It’s everyone BUT Simon.

“Where is he??!”

My wolf lets out a desperate roar that shakes the very air around us.

We’re rewarded with an equally desperate howl, answering our call. We look up and see an unmarked plane soaring above, with Simon’s face in one of the windows. He’s crying and visibly distraught. I launch out the boat and chase the plane from down below until it heads out above the ocean which surrounds the island. I jump into the water, determined and desperate as I start to swim after it. I keep howling and snarling, never keeping my eyes off the craft that holds my love.

A surprised and scared hunter sees me swimming at an unnaturally fast speed and says something to another human before they both disappear.

“Watch out, they are going to start shooting below!”

Simon’s scared voice fills my head through the link. He feels very weak and he must’ve pushed himself hard just to contact me. I couldn’t even hear half of what he said but most of it was easy to figure out. Ignoring the danger, I push forward anyway and continue until my paws become human hands and I’m now falling behind at a tremendous rate.

Before the plane disappears completely out of view, my mind fills with Simon’s last words that will haunt me forever.

“See you in the next life my love”

I sit up in a cold sweat. Yet another night my memories haunt me. My bed and walls are covered in claw marks, an effect of reliving the worst night of my life every time I close my eyes. It’s been a week now since the attack on the ceremony. A week since they stole my beloved. I don’t know how many we’ve had to bury from the day, but the sad energy is still clouding all the packs, all the same. Peace treaties were made immediately so we could all focus on the only problem we had now.

A traitor.

Someone from one of the packs was a traitor. They leaked news of the upcoming event and somehow led hunters straight to us. Perhaps as a way to wipe out all the Alphas and top priority pack members. That would leave unorganized chaos within the packs and leave us vulnerable enough to be wiped out. Why would someone do this? I didn’t know but they would pay dearly for his death.

Mind link:

“We...we don’t know if he’s dead. He could very much be alive”

I didn’t answer. I haven’t been answering Percy since that day. If we kept swimming, he could’ve been home with us. We would’ve saved him and caught those bastards. But instead, I’m mate-less and waking up in cold sweats every damn night. Instead I’m a disgrace of an Alpha.

“We were too weak to continue! If we would’ve kept it up, we would’ve died in that ocean. Do you think that’s what mate would’ve wanted?”

‘We’ll never know, will we? Because he’s gone’

He whimpers in response and I shed a few tears before laying back down and drifting off into another guilt ridden dream.

I’ll find him...if it’s the last thing I do.
