Strong Submissive(boyxboy)

True Strength Part 2

-Raven's POV-

Juliette and I were hunched over a table in the library reading old books from our ancestors. Not much seems to be known of white wolves other than they are very uncommon and that the wolves are selected by the goddess herself. But why would that be the reason for keeping the wolves? Are they a pure essence of wolf or maybe related to the gods?

Juliet groaned out and slammed another book down. " I'm finding absolutely nothing! This is absolutely pointless!"

I leaned back and looked toward the ceiling. " Are we looking at the right books for this? Maybe info is somewhere we don't expect. So far we know they're viewed very highly and they're rare. Maybe we can read some religious texts or ones about your supposed gods?"

"Hmm.. we could try that. Honestly kind of surprised we didn't think of that sooner. Keep looking through that book and Ill go and see what I can find." 

Just as she rose from her seat a chorus of howls broke out. The sound alone shook the walls and stilled our beings. 

My eyes mirrored Juliet's as I looked at her. " Is that the search party?"

Juliet nodded quickly before bolting out of the room, I quickly followed suit.

We quickly ran outside where the others were standing stock still, staring toward the forest that lay before them. Everyone's breathing ceased as we anxiously awaited the search party. Jason and Seth were tense, their muscles rigid. 

No sounds were made, aside from the padding of wolves.

After an agonizing wait, the wolves finally broke through. 

Jason and Seth immediately jumped forward and shifted to their wolves and towards the two bloodied white wolves that were just up ahead. Howls and cheers broke out from all around the small clearing and from the doors of the house. Tears lined my eyes as I felt my knees give way.

Jason was over top Dustin, a pained sound resonated from his through as he nuzzled and licked his returned mate. 

Seth and Ash were both in human form embracing, sobs could be heard from both of them. 

The intimate return beat my heart more and I soon joined in the crying. Juliet wrapped her arms around my shaking form and cried.

It felt surreal. 

Searching.. panic.. fear. Its all that has been going through these packs, and the reality that they're here let everyone release the emotions that were held through this time. 

I looked toward the door and saw the Alpha gazing over the pack, his eyes glistened just slightly and a soft smile  formed at his lips.

" Everyone please get cleaned up. Take care of our white wolves and in 3 hours we will have a pack meeting. We need to discuss our next plan of action and find out what we can from our once missing pack members. Thank you." The Alphas voice stopped and the many wolves nodded. He swiftly turned around and walked back inside. 

Most wolves were making their way back into the pack house to decompress from what took place.

Jason and Seth both held their now human mates and disappeared inside, probably to get the blood cleaned off. 

Juliet gently squeezed my arm " Come on, lets go take it easy. I'm use those guys will be taking care of their mates for the next couple hours before the meeting. Maybe we can go read those books that we talked about? Any information will help with what our Alpha will have planned."

I smiled at her and nodded, " Yeah.. lets go."

Juliet and I spend the next handful of hours reading the many ancestral wolf books that lined the shelves. We were finally making progress and even found a few discoveries. In a book talking about the wolf god's powers it had a chapter on the white wolf. It spoke about how the gods handpicked which wolves would bare pure white fur and who would hold their powers. These powers were given to them to help balance all the wolves and to instill some order when things arise. These wolves are pure, and match the spirit of the gods. 

Juliet held on to the book as the Alphas howl filled the house. She nodded to me before we both began making our way to the meeting hall. 

Wolves were filling into their seats as the two couples sat flanking the Alpha up front. The two white wolves were bandaged up and were pressed against their mates. They held on to each other as though they never wanted to let go. My heart ached.

Soon the room was filled with wolves and a soft murmur, Juliet and I were seated near the front.

I watched as the Alpha rose and raised his hands. The talked ceased and he began speaking. " Today and these past days have been filled with many painful emotions. We lost a member of our pack, another wolf lost his mate. Both white wolves being targeted by Ash's ex pack. We are incredibly fortunate to have found them, and to have them reunited with us. Though our hearts are extremely happy, we must look forward to the future and what this event means to all of us. We must address the enemy pack. This will mean a war. The vile acts committed by the enemy pack must pay and be punished. We will reach out to packs we have assisted and as for their claws when we attack. We will need everyone working and training, groups will be picked in the coming days and our leaders and myself will begin training you. I will be meeting with Jason and Seth along with their mates to further discuss what happened and how they managed to escape. For now all of you rest, we must be energized for the coming weeks and prepare for our fight. If anyone has information that may prove useful please do not hesitate to reach out to me. 

We will not let those wolves continue harming their kind. They will pay."

The room erupted in cheers and sounds of excitement and resolution. I jumped up as well and joined in, excited to get revenge for what that pack has done to this family.

Juliet grabbed my arm " We must speak to the Alpha right away!" 

I nodded in agreement.

One more chapter to go before the second book. Thank you for sticking with it and my mental illnesses, we appreciate it.
