Part 4- Resist the Pull

Ellie's POV

Jump.

Crash.

Whoosh.

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

Wow, this time the border was crazy!

Yep, the border, dragon border, whatever you call it.

And yep, I'm also a dragon. Barely though.

I have this thing called leafspeak. I could hear plants, I could grow plants and all that shit.

When I turn into a dragon, my form is very small. Smaller than average dragons. But at least it's cool.

I'm a Leafwing! That's mostly why I have leafspeak.

I'm also a werewolf. My wolf's name is Kate, and I shift into a pitch black wolf. But my wolf is kinda small.

I suddenly smelt a filthy, rotten scent as I circled around the sky in my dragon form. I quickly landed behind them and called on my leafy friends.

Grow, grow, grow. I willed the plants, and I immediately saw roots come up and grasp the 3 rogues.

"Rogues," I said with distaste. "What are you doing on," I looked at the trees. "Shadow Pack."

Wait.

SHADOW PACK!?

My original pack, the pack where everyone made fun of me, the pack where my mate humiliated me!

But then I found my powers, my strengths, and of course, the border.

I quickly snapped the rogues' necks and willed the plants to grow back to its original size. Then, I stupidly tried to cross the pack border and get out of here.

"Halt, rogue!" I heard a voice I haven't heard in a long time. 5 years?

I turned around, my eyes icy and cold, and they landed on a specific someone.

The Beta.

My brother.

West.

West gasped. "Ellie?"

"Yes, now will you let me go?" I spat coldly.

"Oh my gosh! Ellie! I have to bring you to the Alpha!" He said, signaling the others to lead me.

Alpha?

Oh no...

He meant my mate, Calum.

Oh flippidy floppidy flip.

Calum's POV

"Calum! Guess who the rogue is! It's Ellie!" I heard West mindlink me excitedly.

Once I heard that name, I jumped up from my seat and out the pack house.

"Mate! Mate! Mate! Mate is back!" My wolf Ivan yipped happily, prancing around.

I smelt the soft raspberry scent, the scent I haven't smelt for years.

It drove both me and my wolf crazy.

I saw Ellie struggle, and I growled. Everyone immediately backed away, and I walked towards my beautiful mate.

"Ellie?" I whispered.

She glared at me coldly. Ouch.

"Yes?" She said, her lips in a straight line.

"Oh my gosh! It's me, Ellie! It's your mate! I can't believe you're here!" I gasped, holding her in my arms, feeling the wonderful sparks.

She pushed me away. "I didn't come here willingly."

"Please, let's talk in my room," I said, leading her in.

She glared at me, and reluctantly followed.

"Since you're already here, stay for a while. I know we treated you like shit when you were in our pack, but I swear that we changed! I changed! And if you still won't change your mind and stay, then I'll let you leave." Ivan's ears drooped once he heard what I said.

She sighed. "Argh, fine! Two weeks."

I frowned. "No, one month!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"Argh whatever, I don't want to talk to you. Show me where I will be staying," she grumbled.

I grinned. "You're staying with me!"

She growled. "No! Definitely not!"

"Pleaseeeeeee!"

"Nope."

"Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

"100% no."

"But-"

"No."

I sighed dejectedly. "Fine..."

She stood up, and motioned for me. "So? Where?"

I grinned. "Next to my room."

She groaned. "Arghhhhhhhh, whatever."

I am going to make her stay worth it, I promise.
