The hunter's daughter

12

"Will you let me mark you?" the Alpha demanded.

"I will let Reggie mark me" she whispered back.

The Alpha looked confused.

"Whose Reggie?" he asked.

Monica pointed to Reggie. The Alpha sneered.

"Baldrick, did she name you Reggie?" the Alpha scoffed at him.

"Yes, I let her name me Reggie" he admitted embarrassed.

The Alpha of the harvest moon pack laughed and allowed Monica to stay with Reggie.

"Very well, Reggie, you can have your prisoner. Make sure she is marked and don't let her go anywhere without you. We will still need to protect the pack from future hunters" alpha Ashley sneered at Reggie.

He went over to the dead body of Max and told his men to dispose of it. Then he shouted for the rest of his pack to free the other werewolves and burn the house and stables to the ground. Then he led them out of the place. Monica had to watch as her home was destroyed and she was held tightly by Reggie. He was sorry that she was losing her home but wanted her to have his home as her own. They all approached the woods where most of the pack shifted into wolf's except Reggie.

"I'm sorry, I have to do this" Reggie told her. He picked her up and carried her as he ran while shifting into his wolf form.

Monica found herself dangling from the jaws of a wolf, she was half over his back. She noticed the eyes were golden brown. It must be Reggie who was carrying her. They must been running through the woods for a few hours now. She wondered how she could be so calm after everything that happened. Reggie seemed to sense her her concern and tried to smile but as a wolf it looked like he was barring his teeth. Monica felt herself slipping but Reggie bite down on her hand and she flinched. Reggie was sorry he hurt her but he didn't want her to fall at the pace he was going. Monica smiled at him to let him know that she was alright. They continued running through the woods and only stopped when they reached the edge of it. Then Reggie waited for other members of his pack to join him. He continued to carry Monica into the pack lands. He gently laid her down while a man carrying a bag threw clothes at him. Reggie changed into human form and changed into the clothes.

"We are here, Monica" he told her when he finished changing.

She looked at him and couldn't help but blush. Reggie had been naked and she didn't get to see him in all his glory. Reggie was amused by her blushing at him.

"Come with me, Monica before the Alpha commands that you stay in the dungeon" Reggie suggested to her. He held out his hand to her and she was led to his house.

"I have my own place, now that my brother isn't here. I rather live here than with the rest of the pack. They didn't treat my brother right. Did I tell you what happened?" Reggie started to say then remembered Monica didn't know his story.

Monica shook her head. She had tried to get him to talk about his family but he hadn't told her much.

"Well, come inside and I'll tell you" Reggie told her and took her into his house.

Once they were inside Reggie looked at his house. It needed a clean since he had been gone over a month. He looked at his kitchen to find something to cook for breakfast. There was only mouldy bread and crackers. Reggie decided on crackers and soup. He made enough for himself and Monica.

"Here, eat some of this. I don't have anything else that's eatable. I will go out later to get some food. But we both need to rest and talk" Reggie suggested.

Monica ate the soup with crackers and Reggie continued with his story.

"Well, I'll properly introduce myself now that I am with my pack. My real name is Baldrick Cooper, I am a cousin to the Alpha but not close. My mother came from another pack and my father was a half brother to the alpha's father, my uncle. My brother Baldwin was to be the next Betta but was demoted to a Delta because of his mate. Her name was Hailey and she rejected my brother for the Alpha. After she flirted with the Alpha and mated with him, my brother started to seperate from the pack. He lived here for a little while but couldn't stand the constant flaunting of thier relationship. It sickens me how much she hurt my brother and didn't care. My brother decided he wanted to transfer to another pack before he became rogue. Well, I wasn't treated much better by the pack. But I hadn't found my mate because I was still 17. I ran off before I turned 18 and became rogue. That's when your father caught me. He caught me on my 18th birthday just after my first shift" Reggie explained.

"I'm sorry that happened to you" Monica told him.

"I know and I'm sorry what happened to your father too" Reggie told her.

Monica stopped eating and started crying.

"It's going to be alright, Monica. I will take care of you now. I know I have to wait until you are 18. But you are my mate and we will be together now. I want you to make yourself at home, it's our home now" Reggie told her.

Monica nodded.

"Do I still call you Reggie?" Monica wondered.

"If you want. I want you to be happy here with me" Reggie told her smiling.

" I will be as long as I am your mate" Monica told him.

"Yes, you will be my mate" Reggie smiled and kissed her.
