Chapter 1

I approached Wildcat, my duffle bag that contained all my belongings in my hand. My Mom and Sister Akita and Maya walked beside me. He was about 6'5 in human form, he was casually dressed in blue jeans and a grey t-shirt. I stopped in front of him and he nodded his head, I turned to my Mom and Maya and I began singing softly.

It was Friday just after school, the time for me to be claimed.

"I promise, where ever the strongest rivers or most violent of wind may take me," I paused to push back tears, "I will always be near." It was the traditional song for an Omega female to sing to her family when offered to a stronger pack before leaving.

She kissed the top of my head and I hugged Maya before turning and standing next to Wildcat. I simply waved and we began walking around to the other side of the lake, our territories were separated by the Holy Lake. When leaving the pack, the Omega wasn't permitted to speak to their former pack so that the bond was broken.

Once I looked over my shoulder and I saw them leaving, I exhaled. There was a silence between Wildcat and I that I didn't know if I wanted to shatter or not. "You have a beautiful voice, most of the females that sing the song before they leave have voices that sound like banshees," Wildcat chuckled.

I nodded, "thank you, Sir."

"I saw what Eric did to you yesterday, does he do that with all of his lower rankings?"

I clenched my fist in the skirt of my white dress, "no, just me."

Wildcat nodded and stuffed his hands in his pockets.

"How did you earn the title, Wildcat?"

He looked at me and smiled, "my offering to Vanoss when I wanted to join the pack was a wildcat."

I looked at him, confused, "joined? You weren't born in?"

"Oh, no," he shook his head. "I was weak and when I caught scent of Vanoss' pack, I wanted to join and I needed an offering."

"Oh," I caught scent of Vanoss, Marcel, and other wolves. We were close.

We walked through the trees to an opening in the woods, there was a large cave and wolves and humans were milling around it. All eyes were on us when we entered, following behind us.

Vanoss was standing there, talking to a beautiful girl with blonde hair in a messy bun. When she saw Wildcat, she ran and jumped in his arms and they went over to the cave side. Y/N slowly approached the Alpha and placed her bag down, shifting to wolf form and bowing to him. "Hello, Alpha."

"Welcome, to the Vanoss Crew." People cheered and a girl with dark skin and brown hair picked up Y/N's bag, beckoning her to follow her deeper into the cave. Y/N shifted to her human form before following.

"My name is Aliyah, by the way." She smiled.

"Hello, I'm Y/N."

"So, I hear that you're Marcel's new mate."

"Yes, I am. Do you have a mate?" I turned to her.

Aliyah's face lit up, "yes! I do! His name is Nogla, he should be around here somewhere." The two of us stopped at a patch of vines and she pushed them aside to a large bed of leaves, feathers, and multiple soft materials.

But, laying on the patch of leaves reading a book shirtless with only pants on was Marcel. "Aliyah what the-oh." His anger grew more in his eyes when he spotted me, I offered a small wave and he just growled and got up, throwing the book onto the ground.

Aliyah and I moved out of the way as he passed, I sighed. "Why does he hate me?"

"I know why."

I widened my eyes at Aliyah, "can you tell me?" I sat on the make-shift bed and Aliyah put my bag in the corner before joining me.

"Marcel...he was in love with a she-wolf named Simone. They were deep in love and were about to marry...but she was killed by poachers. He shut himself away for weeks and barely interacted with anyone before being coaxed to do so." She was very sad now, I just hugged her.

"I'm so sorry, were you two close?"

She bit her lip and nodded, we stayed in silence before the vines moved and standing there was a handsome man who was super tall, he had her black hair and black stubble. "Aye, Aliyah. Tis is Marcel's new mate?" He had a thick Irish accent.

Aliyah got up and hugged the man, he smelled heavily of her so I could only guess they were mates. "Yes, this is Y/N!" I got up and shook his hand.

"Nice to meet ye, teh name's Nogla."

"Y/N."

They said their goodbyes and left, I examined the room before deciding to follow the scent back to the main room. Vanoss was chatting with Wildcat and another man, he had dark brown hair and was very handsome. I was hesitant to approach them, I tapped Vanoss on the shoulder, he turned around, clearly aggravated.

"What?" He growled, I stepped back.

"Have you seen Marcel?"

"Can you track scents?"

"Of course."

Vanoss grabbed a stick and held it up to my nose, I sniffed it and the smell trail appeared before my eyes; it led out the cave and around a corner. I bowed my head and thanked him before transforming and dashing out of the cave.

I followed the smell, my boss pressed against the ground. Once the smell got stronger, I looked up and there was Marcel still shirtless; he was kneeling beside a patch of grass with two sticks tied together to form a cross. There was also a stone with a paw print in it.

"Marcel?" I asked, he snapped his head up and shifted from human to wolf, growling.

"What the hell are you doing here?" He snarled, I just stepped back and pulled back my ears.

"I was looking for you," I whimpered.

"Why?"

"I wanted to give my condolences. Aliyah told me about Simo-"

"Don't you dare speak her name!" He barked, I just stepped back. "You know nothing!"

He advanced towards me slowly, that's when I spotted it.

A large moose was coming up from behind Marcel.

I froze in place and brought my voice to a whisper, "don't make any sudden moves."

"What? No! I don't take orders from an Omega!" He jumped at me and the moose began to charge. I moved out of the way and lunged at the moose, taking it head on.

My claws dug into its side and I tasted blood when I sunk my teeth into its side. It roared in pain and threw it's head to the side, I lost my grip and connected with a tree.

I shook it off and snarled, lunging at it again. I bit into its back and tell I ripped out a chunk because it came off into my mouth, I spit it out and screamed. "Run! Marcel! Run!"

"No! I'm not going to lose another mate!" I was flung again, I landed with a hard thud and I was in so much pain that I couldn't sit up. Using the last of my strength, I howled a long, hard howl that I knew would call the pack.

My vision was blurry but what I could make out, Marcel was trying to take down the moose.

Everything then went black.
