Alone Together

For Akela being a Runt has been hard. Weaker, smaller, and slower than the rest, they are discriminated against in the werewolf community. Harder still is the treatment from her own personal bully, her pack's Alpha. Still, she has tried hard not to be the victim of her story and relies on herself alone to get by. Akela had been told since a young age that she would wander the Earth alone without a soulmate. With that knowledge she grew to be self-reliant. Though by the recklessness of her actions she finds herself in a situation where she must rely on another person. That person? Her mate.
