Lahat ng Kabanata ng Raven - The runaway wolf : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

It’s been two weeks since I last spoke to Leo and even in the short space of time we had become friends again, I really noticed his absence. I carried on with my usual things but after Alpha Caleb’s announcement four days ago, everyone was restricted with things to do. I’d always go to the lake on the days I didn’t have college or things to do around the house. Instead, I had managed to get Uncle Filton out of the house more, dragging him along with me as we walked around the permitted paths. We went to the library to pick out new books to read and ones he’d asked for me to read him to sleep with. But every time we left the house, I’d see Leo in the training grounds, and I’d do my best to avoid walking past feigning excuses to Uncle Filton that I preferred the path that lead in the opposite direction. I had finished my Raven bird drawing and with the time I had, I decided to paint a portrait of Anya, looking at her features from all the photos we had left of her. I wanted to do it as a

Me and Leo had barely spoken the last four days and even father had been getting home later than usual. I’d hear the porch door quietly squeak shut every night when I was already in bed, he was always gone before breakfast and wouldn’t return until late in the night. Since the rogue incident the guards have been patrolling our border with extra vigil and I’d seen the alpha and Leo constantly down there too along with father.I tried to ask father about it and so did mother, but he remained tight lipped about it all, either that or he didn’t actually know enough to tell us anything, he’d always say “It’s just for precaution”. I could hear it in Leo’s voice, the one time he was able to call me… a conversation that only lasted minutes when he quickly ended the call, telling me the alpha insisted they do even more training.But as I waited outside of my house for him to arrive, the one afternoon he was able to spare and he was adamant that instead of getting some well earned rest, he want

For the last week I’d been training with Leo any chance I got. Whether it was an hour or more we’d rush to the woods, and we wouldn’t stop until I could barely lift my arms up. Every part of me was sore and ached but I finally felt as though I was able to make use of the strengths I knew I always had.Leo was a terrific coach and training partner, but I despised him the moment he took off his shirt three days ago when our sparring made him all sweaty. I could have sworn he was just doing it to distract me, and at times it was working and when I was alone and could daydream about it, I would! I’d picture just how refined and protruding each muscle was and the way they clenched and moved in sync. He’d also been keeping up with his constant hand kissing each time he walked me home, which was not only messing with these damn butterflies that like to keep flittering around in my stomach, but it was confusing. I did want him… Oh I wanted him a lot! Each time he kissed my hand now, I’d rathe

Three days I had been waiting around, only able to rely on updates from father. He had told me every night he came home from the palace that both the alpha and Luna had been spending most of their time at the hospital watching over Leo. He also insisted that right now it as pointless me even visiting seeing as he still hadn’t woken up yet since he was attacked. His injuries were quite severe and deep, and he had been clawed right across his abdomen. He’d live and he’d heal, but it was going to take time for him to recover, especially to the point of him being able to train again, which I knew meant such a big deal to him.It was only last night that father told me that Leo had finally woken up but only for small moments here and there and so, the alpha and Luna had become a bit more lenient with him having visitors today, and that perhaps I could try and see him for myself.I stood looking at my reflection in my bedroom mirror fiddling with my hair. I had on a tidy black blouse and a

We kept walking, not taking any breaks, just treading further and further along the forest, going deeper than I’d expected. There’s no way now that I could find my way home, especially on my own. “We’re here”. The man finally spoke and when I looked ahead, I could see through a cluster of trees, small orange glowing light all dotted around. As soon as we walked through the trees and got to the other side, I couldn’t believe my eyes. “Where are we?” I asked him. “Camp! The safe zone!”. He simply replied. “Wait here!”. He ordered. I stood in the one spot as I looked around, there were several little wooden huts and cabins and ladders all up along some of the trees that lead to planked walkways. I scanned them, following where they led to with my eyes, and on opposite sides of the camp were two circular areas resting near the tops of the trees, and I could just about see two figures standing, watching over on each of them. I glanced back at the man, to see he had walked to the fir
