Her Viking Howler

Ch.19 Finding You

Nia POV

As I lay there in bed, a million thoughts raced in my mind. Would Travis be open to communication, is Hakon searching for me in the spirit realm and even if I did find him out in the woods, what form would he be in?. After a while of racking my brain trying to come up with an answer, I eventually felt myself drift off to sleep and just let my spirit drift until I found myself back in the same dream plane as before but the only difference this time was that I was in a grass field that was illuminated with blue and purple hues from the Borealis in the night sky overhead.

I was a bit confused, I felt like I was in the right place but the scenery around me was throwing me off until I heard a loud wolf howl in the distance that was soon joined by many other howls. It didn't make sense that I would be hearing other wolves since I had only met Hakon the last time I was here but as I stared off in the distance where all of the howls were coming from, I began seeing forms running towards me. At first, I couldn't tell what they were but when they got closer, I could see that they were wolves running over to see me.

Soon there were at least 30 wolves in the same form that Hakon was the first time I met him. They all stood there for a moment before I heard a collective chorus of "Hello Luna".

These were some of the wolf forms of the pack members that most likely were here looking for Travis as well.

"Hello, are y'all here looking for alpha like me?"

"Yes, we are but he is not making his presence known unto us. Perhaps he will come to you since you're his mate", one of them responded before they all faded away into streams of light going up into the sky.

I just hope what that wolf said is true and Hakon will come to me. I paused for a moment before speaking out into the night sky-filled distance ahead of me.

"Hakon, if you hear me, please make yourself known. I know what happened last night wasn't your fault and that Travis is apprehensive to talk to me but I just want to let you know that I am not scared of you and I know you would never hurt me on purpose. Please tell Travis that as his mate, I want to help him get past this obstacle so that we can start working together for the pack's sake because right now as we speak, I feel that not only is the leadership of the pack in danger but my safety as well. I don't know exactly what he has planned but my instincts are telling me that Garrett has bad intentions towards me and maybe some of those in the pack that go against his form of leadership".

I paused for a moment looking around not seeing anything until I felt it. That same feeling I got before when Hakon appeared to me on that night and it was confirmed when I looked up and saw a large wolf form come running down from the sky to stop in front of me, glowing the same blue and purple colors as before. In my spirit, I instantly knew it was Hakon based on his size.

"My sweet Luna, I am so sorry for putting you in danger like that. That was not how I wanted our first introduction in the physical realm to go. You are my lifelong mate and the last thing I want is to be a danger to you or my pack and as soon as I find out who is responsible for causing that reaction, they will be paying for it with their life!"

"Hakon, I understand that it wasn't your fault and that you did warn me to get away from you before you shifted but what has me worried right now is how Travis is doing. Is he hurt, does he need help from me or the pack?", I asked desperately for answers.

"Physically he's fine because of the fast healing abilities but mentally, that's something you're going to have to help him with since he still blames himself for almost hurting you. The one thing you have to understand about Travis is that for his whole life, he's been waiting for his mate and now that he has you, you're his number one priority, meaning that anything you need or want, he will provide it. Whether it be love, guidance, or protection from any danger, enemies or from within the pack, he will make sure you have it but when he became the danger to you, then that made him feel like a failure not only as an Alpha but as a mate and the only thing that can help him get rid of this guilt is reassurance from you."
