Wolf Ring Alpha (Wolves of Canada)(Hiatus)

Happiness

I may not make some Wednesdays.... I have somewhere I HAVE to be (by order of the rents, of course) so some Wednesday chapters may be pushed back to Thursdays. Like this one.

Just warning y'all.

I lost all track of time in my room. All I know is that I didn't leave my suite and not one ounce of food passed my lips. I could feel myself wasting away. Literally. But I had to think, and food was unneeded right now.

I had to figure this out. Why was I so attracted to that Alpha? Why was my heart torn in two by just being away from him like this? I rested my temple against the widow. I had sat for so long on the plush cushion of this window seat without moving a hair that I was pretty sure it would bear a booty-print for the rest of its days.

How long had it been? I had stopped counting after a week or so. All I knew was that any extra fat I had possessed was gone in an attempt by my body to keep me alive.

I felt the tears well up again as Blitz's face crossed my mind. My wolf whined. At first, she had not been happy with my self-imposed seclusion, but several days later she and I became good buddies through our mutual questions.

Namely, why are we here and not with Blitz?

This sounded like something one former Rogue Changer, Kaer, had told me. A wolf made for you, and when (or if) you meet them, you will fall faster than anything, I shifted slightly-the first time in Lupus knows how long-and winced as every muscle in my body screamed at me.

I bit my lip and pushed it down. My fingers fumbled at the window latch, and I clumsily managed to unlock it and push it open. I leaned over the edge slightly, and the vertigo hit me. I felt bile rising in my throat, and I hoped desperately that I was not going to puke.

I didn't have anything to barf up in the first place, so I'd be heaving up an empty gut. And I knew from experience that it wasn't pleasant. I pulled my head back in the window and managed to choke down the acrid liquid. Stepping off the window seat, I pulled my dirty clothing over my head, slipped out of my bottoms and underwear and stepped out of the fabric pooled at my feet. I clambered back on the seat and flung myself out the window.

I shifted on my way down. All four paws hit the ground at once, and I took off through the village. My wolves flattened themselves against the walls so as not to hinder me. I ran as fast as I could. Towards him.

Blitz.

I tripped over a root and went flying. I landed on my side in the grass, off the path. I hauled myself to my paws and stumbled forwards. Trip. Fall. Stand up. Run. Trip. Fall. Stand up. I manage to haul my tail across the Deep Forest border and collapse beneath a tree.

Blitz! I mentally wailed. Blitz! I had to get to him! But I couldn't move. I felt myself slipping into the sleep that I had denied myself for days.

Blitz

I felt something wrong. She was in pain. But it wasn't the pain she'd been in for the past fortnight, It was different this time. Stronger. More intense. I pushed back my chair and stood up, eyes narrowed, jaw tight and muscles taut.

The entire Alpha Council's eyes shot to me. I bowed hastily. "My apologies, but I must leave." The eldest Pair, the elderly Alpha of the Yukon's Gold Valley Pack and his Luna, nod in understanding. The others just look at me. "There is something wrong with my mate," I tell them impatiently.

I have to go. But unfortunately, I must ask permission. Meetings.

I despise every word I have to tell them so can get to my mate. "You don't have a mate," Kiernan, Alpha of the nearby Long Plain Pack, points out. He had offered one of his sisters as my mate early two moon-cycles ago, and I had refused. No doubt he still had a bee under his tail about that one.
