Chapter 1 Found
A dark night Artimas runs from those that have held her for four months. She kept running till she knew she reached the next packs territory. She made it a mile and a half in before clasps on the ground. Her body to tired to move farther. Before passing out she hears their boarder guards. She feels someone pick her up but to tired to see who.
Serious POV
I feel a strange pull it has to be the bond. I run following the ones on patrol. I get to where they are standing; only to see a beautiful woman laying in the grass. I pick her up and automatically know she is my mate. I have to know who she is and what family she comes from. As I get back to the house with her, I call the pack doctor telling him to meet me in an upstairs room.
I place her down on the bed thinking of all the things that have happened to her. I need to know. The dr. comes in and looks over her. He said she is going to be fine and has some cuts he hasn’t seen before nor what would of made them. So I have to wait on asking. I walk down to my office and start looking through family books.
Knock...knock.... knock....
Serious: who is it?
Marculi: It’s me your beta Alpha.
Good to know it’s just him and not anyone else.
Serious: come in.
Maruli: Who is the lady you brought back? And what are you looking for?
When next is a scream. I hear the dr yelling and running out the door.
Serious: What the hexes going on now.
Marculi: only one way to find out Alpha.
We follow the dr as we get out toward the training field and smell blood. It’s a good amount. But I look closer and I stop dead. How can my mate be out here so quickly.? She was just passed out and should be out for a few days. Her wounds are gone too.
Serious: What happened out here?
Azalea: It was a training accident alpha. I didn’t mean to hurt anyone.
Serious: Calm down. I’m not mad Lea stuff happens. Now my dear lady who are you? She looks at me and turns her back to me looking out into the field. She changes her stands up.
Next thing I see is some of the Dracu pack. Just what I need. Till I hear Zaires speak.
Zaires: What the hell are you doing here dear sister? Why not come home? Why the hunt when no one could find you?
Artimas: You may be my brother; but I don’t answer to you. I left home because Ididn’t want to be there any longer. As for not finding me it’s called masking so there is no trace.
What my mate is from the Dracu family. But there hasn’t been a family joining in two centuries. How can this be?
Serious: What do you mean by you left because of no longer wanting to be there?. My dear mate.
She turns to me and looks straight at me.
Artimas: I left because sitting in that damn place called home wasn’t home. My home is where my mate is. My place is with him.
I stay still and smirk at her words. Only a true Luna would look a strong mate in the eyes. She is showing how much of an equal she is.
Serious: Well let’s move this inside. It’s getting dark out and dinner is ready.
Everyone move in to the house and gets what they want to eat. Zaires is still starring at my mate. Which is pissing me off now. But before I can say anything she speaks.
Artimas: Zaires stop before it ends badly. (Turning to face Serious) I’m sorry my name is Artimas Dracu. And this here is my twin brother Zaires.
I nod my head at her to show I’m listening. When my attention is pulled to a crying sound and seeing Artimas run out to the hall way and turn to the right. I follow her and all the turns she makes when she stops. I stop just a foot behind her. What is she up to?
Still hear the crying but I can’t see where it is coming from. Till Artimas bends down and picks up a baby.
Artimas: Shhhh... It’s okay little one. You don’t need to cry anymore you are safe.
Baby: sniffles
Artimas: That’s it. Let’s go take you to your mom.
How?, what did I just miss. We walk back into the dinning room where everyone is and her brother just looks at us. She hands the baby to her mom.
Artimas: Don’t even Zaires. This isn’t the time or place for what your going to say.
Zaires: Why not. Not like it’s stopped you before?
I watch as Artimas doesn’t say anything and walks in to the kitchen. I wonder what’s going on.
Serious: Zaires what do you mean?
Zaires: uhm it’s really nothing. Kinda picking on my little sister.
I look at him knowing that’s not what he means.
Serious: I’m calling bullshit. Tell me what you really mean.
Zaires: I hate the alpha tone. But she was never like this before. She would always say what’s on her mind. For a couple years now she hasn’t. It’s like something has been eating at her. I can’t figure out what it is though.
Serious: Give it time. There is always a reason for things.
We move to the kitchen and it’s clean. I didn’t hear her leave. Where is she? Zaires sighs.
Zaires: Let’s see if I can do this.
He breathes and is listening but to what?.
Zaires: Got her. She is upstairs in a room. I believe it’s your room. Oh it’s the twin bond before you ask.
I nod my head and walk to her room. I get there and open the door. I see my dear mate laying on the floor. I walk over to her and gently pick her up. I turn and place her on the bed. I pull the covers over her and I lay on the couch. I soon fall asleep.
