ALINA Ocean Wood was my home. It had been for years before everything was ripped from me when I was ten. I could still remember the salt air from the beaches nearly a mile away, the sunsets at night, and the long beautiful howls from our wolves running on the beach. The Ocean Wood Pack sat on our own private beach tucked away in Northern California. Our territory was massive, stretched for miles and miles, miles of beaches and forests. I’ll never forget it. Now it’s gone and that was eight years ago. Since then, I had been on the run from the rogue wolves who took everything from me. I barely escaped Ocean Wood when they came for us; my parents – the Alphas had saved me. When I turned twelve, the Moon Goddess took pity on me and gave me my wolf, Kiiya, six years early. After that, I was doing much better for myself. I graduated high school last year and was working at a small clothing boutique part-time. That didn’t matter now. Move your ass! Kiiya screamed in my head. Last night after work, I decided to sleep on the beach to clear my head. I must’ve been dreaming about home when my wolf woke me up. I shot to my feet and lifted my nose to the air. Wolves. Let me out. We can take ‘em. Ugh, Kiiya was right. Being of Alpha blood, I was bigger, stronger, and faster than other wolves. We can’t keep running. I replied as I let her come out and she shoved me to the back of her mind. Kiiya was a beautiful midnight black wolf standing at nearly five feet at the shoulder with sparkling blue eyes. You know where we have to go. Kiiya barked as she took off running down the beach. Her paws hit the sand running faster than she ever has. You know what happens to rogues if we go. Do we have a choice? REX I sat in my office looking over some final paperwork for a new project outside of the territory. I decided to work late because I hadn’t been sleeping well lately. My body ached the longer I went without a mate. My parents warned me this would happen if I had taken the Alpha position without a Luna. It’s been almost a year since I had become Alpha of the Red Woods. I better find a mate soon before it gets worse. Dude, we got a rogue heading straight for us. Hunter, my Beta, alerted me through our mind link. What are you telling me for? You know how to handle it! I snapped back. I stood from my desk and headed for the door. Something’s different about this one. You better get out here. Hunter cut off the link. I raced down the stairs pushing past other pack members before I shifted letting my own wolf, Levi, take over. Levi had snow white fur standing at six feet tall at the shoulder with bright silver eyes. He howled as he ran deeper into the territory. The Red Woods Pack was named after the infamous Red Wood trees, massive tall and thick trees in Northern California. As we neared Hunter’s location from his patrol, I was hit with the most beautiful scent of the ocean breeze. It flooded my senses and made Levi go crazy. MATE!!!!
