I Claim Your LOVE

Stabbed

Einar and Garrick had been on good terms since the latter's unfolding of the truth. Einar on the other hand had been relieved to share everything with his best friend. His tranquility reflected in his moods and his work. It was as if a huge burden from his shoulders was being lifted and he felt lonely no more. Most importantly, Einar knew that Garrick would be in the frontline to help him, defend him with his mate situation now more than ever. 

Speaking of mates, Garrick revealed his own discovery and tryst with his bond mate to Einar. Garrick had a problem of his own as the mate in question was a human. The Alpha was apprehensive of the situation as a human mate would create quite a ruckus in the council. He promised Garrick that he would help him convince the council to accept Fayette as the pack member.

It was a fine day in the pack lands today. The sky was blue while the clouds were puffs of joy. Pure rays reflected from the sky as the light that touched the ground warmed Rosaline's skin. Her crimson gown absorbed the sun rays at its best while her hair were perfectly combed with a few strands on her forehead dancing to the tunes of the wavy wind. She looked to the silent motion of the clouds and a small grin formed on her face. With that smile were two rolling beads dripping from her eyes. 

She was remembering someone dear to her.

Today was the day when her pack was massacred. Lives were lost and people had to flee to save themselves. Among the deceased were her parents and her little brother. The bloodbath assured that no mortal remains be present at the scene. That was the reason she could not bury her people with the respect they deserved.

To pay homage and honor her people, she and Einar decided to pay a visit to her previous pack. Though she was quite reluctant and scared to go there, it was the Alpha's encouragement that brought a pinch of courage in her. 

Einar stood beside the lady "Lets go."

"Are you sure we don't need any guards with us. I mean those people are hostile." She fidgeted her fingers.

Einar took her fidgeting fingers in his hand and smiled at her "I know you are worried but we are not going there for war. Besides I have already informed the Alpha and taken his permission."

"You don't have to do this.."

He caressed her cheek "Yes I do." He kissed her forehead "You are my responsibility now. Good or bad we share it both." 

This brought a smile to Rosaline's face while both of them turned into their wolves and started their journey to the pack of Idris. They ran for quite a while before reaching the pack beyond the mountains. They quickly changed into their human forms and dressed up to meet the Alpha of Idris pack.

When Einar and Rosaline arrived at the pack borders they were forced to wait for hours. Initially Einar thought that it was a required precautionary measure so he kept his calm but soon his patience was waning. He contemplated barging in, breaking the chain of warriors stationed at the border but it would show his disrespect and dishonour towards the pack and its Alpha. Moreover Rosaline needed him to be with her.

After agitating hours of wait, a middle aged petite man was seen from a distance. He was short in stature and had a thin moustache while his hair were all ruffed. He carried a walking stick and a slew of bodyguards surrounded him as if a procession was being carried out. With a smug look on his face he said "Welcome Son of Ragnar, Alpha of the blue moon pack. I have been waiting for you since you announced your wish to visit us."

"I can see that." Einar remarked sarcastically. 

The petite man tilted his head and looked at Rosaline curiously "I think I have seen you somewhere.. Have we met before young lady?"
