Forged in Blood #Watty's 2017 [Being Re-uploaded]

Bucks and Rabbits

We ran.

We ran throughout the forest, jumping over little rivers, weaving around trees and catching the scent of game. It felt....fun.....it was something I wouldn't be able to experience if our mate was a lady of the royal court like Becky and Bucky, twins who had been our childhood best friends but Becky kept saying we were her mates, her brother had found their mates already but Becky refused accepting them.

I suddenly ran into something and stopped running noticing it was my brother.
'What's wrong?'
'There's a buck up ahead, want a small hunt?'
I barked happily and mind linked mate's pack mates telling them as we all started to stalk. I could now smell it but I wasn't sure how big it might actually be, you could say I wasn't really allowed to ever go hunting with my brother or anyone else because of how delicate my mother claimed I had been.She had never really let me train with my brother or other pups due to a small birth complication when I was born.

Soon we came to a clearing, I wasn't really sure how this would go but my wolf, Samuel, took control letting my instincts take over me like a wave of water freezing cold and rendering my judgment useless unless Samuel would listen to me, which in my case is highly doubtful considering he's a huge pain in the ass when he's hungry and hasn't been in control for awhile so he'll take advantage of it....but I did it anyways.

It was like stepping through a huge door that seemed to lead towards a world full of smells that only his wolf could find, see the slightest fidget of grass or leaves or hear a rabbit hoping around twenty miles away. It was like putting every normal sense on overdrive and end up seeing a whole new world.

Jake took point, I right behind him with a few other males who had agreed to hunt while the others stayed where we left them so they would set up camp. We silently started our hunt, being controlled by Samuel the whole time.

It felt strange being away from Sara after the past few days of just taking care and loving her, I knew we were halfway to the castle now and were covering enough space that it'd surprise even our own pack but I still missed her. When we'd take a break some of the warriors would sit and talk of their mates and pups or how much they couldn't wait until some of them would find their mates, in all honesty watching them bond this way with us was very touching.

"So how is it with you and alpha?" A juvenile wolf asked me sitting next to his father, he was one of the young newly shifted wolves we had brought along with us, I believe his name is Robert.

"I mean well considering that you're all joining the royal pack because of the merge of them both and that we've marked her that there has been a great deal of progress since when we first met her", the young wolf nodded before his father reached out to shake my brother's and my hand, " Well you both have earned my respect personally even if you are princes"

All the wolves around them chuckled, it must of been some inside joke they all had. I looked around the group before noticing all the juveniles walk and huddle together at the edge of our camp, they seemed distressed about something, there was also a male who fit right between juvenile and adult. He probably had matured enough to find his mate but considering he was hanging out with the pups he found himself possibly not experienced enough to sit with us.

I looked to Jake who stood up and mind linked me.
'I'll go check out what's ruffled their scruffs, you just stay here and continue with your small chat. Find out more about mate so we can do something nice when we get back to her.'
I just nodded and continued chatting.

Jake's P.O.V.
I walked up to the group of pups who now seemed to be holding two others away from each other, my first impression seemed that they had a disagreement about some rabbit they caught or something but as I got closer it was something completely different.

"I need to find her! Her scent is everywhere out here, it's mixed with another wolf's scent just let me go!", it was the older of them that begged to be let go and find a female.

On the other hand the younger male who was being held back had his eyes purely black and was growling, " She's mine only you filthy mutt! She's mine!" His nostrils flared as whatever he smelled came closer, and suddenly a female jumped over the hill knocking both the males and knocking all that were holding them back.

I growled loudly finally catching all the adults and juveniles attention along with the young female who I recolonized now.

"Melissa!!"

She shifted quickly into her wolf attempting to run but the two males who had been fighting not more than a minute ago grabbed her inhaling her scent as if it were a drug that they would never tire of. She whimpered looking up at me and then to Mike who was dumbfounded by her appearance.

^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•

Our little sister was never to be this far from home. She was never even supposed to leave the castle without one of us there to watch over her, but here she was being smelt up and down by these two wolves.
I'd never seen Mike more furious in his life seeing her here now, he looked like he was about to have a heart attack just now as he yelled at her.

She'd finally shifted and almost every male had turn around before Mike, the two juveniles and I started growling asking if any were to challenge us for her. I'd quickly given her the shirt I had on to cover her body up from her mates who had stared at her as if it was a cookie jar they wouldn't mind getting caught with their hand in.

"What are you doing here young lady?! You're supposed to be at he waiting for our arrival, why are you in the middle of the woods?! Your mates here were going crazy the moment they smelt you and were about the kill one another to prove that the female they could smell was only theirs! Do you know how many fucking rouges are in these woods?! You could of been killed!" She winced at his tone but made no effort to stop him, goddess knows I'd start screaming if she tried stopping Mike from yelling.

He finally calmed down and stared at the young wolves, I kmnew what he was thinking without even asking because I was thinking of it too. Our dear little mate who by now would be in the castle waiting five us. I couldn't get mad at these pups more than my brother had already because well at least we knew that if we were ever to die in battle....Our little sister and her mate's would make exceptional rulers for our kingdom.
