I feel my whole body aching, my legs are starting to give out, and my lungs are burning. I am running up the mountain, on my usual trail, at full speed until I get to the top. I could shift to make it easy on myself but no, I push myself. Based on the stream I just passed I have about a quarter mile to go. The last half mile is always the hardest.
I am the only one in my pack that trains my human side. My Alpha Simon doesn't believe in training our human side. His main focus is our wolf. Yes, our human side is a lot stronger than any average human. But I believe it can be stronger. So I run.
Since the age of twelve when I tried to "run away from home". I have been running. I got mad at my dad. I really wanted to go to a sleepover party and my dad said no. My father John was always very kind and loving toward me. He never punished me and very rarely said no to me. So when he said no to the sleepover party I lashed out.
*Flashback*
"Dad but all my friends are going!" I remember the fight.
"I don't mind you going to the party with your friends, Ivy. But you're not staying the night. I'll pick you up from Olivia's by ten thirty."
This got me even madder my own father doesn't trust me. I got emotional, my eyes filled with tears and I can taste the bitterness in my mouth. I turned around and run up the stairs. When I walked into my room I slammed the door. My whole body was consumed with anger, I felt a surge of power ripple throws my veins. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and I sware I saw the ends of my white blonde hair glow for a few seconds.
In werewolves, our eyes glow when we get mad. So I did not think twice about it. There were many cases where parents reported their kid's eyes glowing when they get mad before they get their wolf. My dad is an ex-beta, so I have stronger geans.
I passed the mirror, opened the window, and jumped out. I landed perfectly on my feet. It was like I was flying in slow motion. Like a bird's landing. I looked up the window I never did that before. I didn't know I can do that. I stand there for a second I look down at my body I need to hide my scent, again I felt a huge surge of power float through my veins.
I look around. It's late afternoon, no one saw me.
Our backyard was facing the mountain. I quickly found a trail and started running at full speed. Two hours of running at my max took a toll on my body. When I got to the top my body gave up on me, and I almost passed out from tiredness. I found a beautiful open area where I can see our town from above. Our pack is in a beautiful valley surrounded by mountains. I sit down on the grass next to a huge rock and watch the nature around me.
This is the time when I miss my mom. Even though I never knew her I had a great image of what she would be like. She died when she was giving birth to me. My dad said she was human. He met her when he went on a vacation to Miami with our ex-alpha Gregory. They wanted to see the beach, the warm weather, and yes the clubs. My dad was turning 35 and never found his mate. He first thought that my mom was his mate because of the strong attraction he had for her but it was missing all the normal mate signs like tinging when they touch and mate scent. Which should be present even though she is human.
I set there looking at the scenery and missing my mom, I must have dozed off because I was awoken by Alpha Simon. Alpha Simon is ten years older than me, he became Alpha at age 18. He has been a great Alpha like his father. So I was very surprised when he used this tone of voice with me.
It was harsh, "Ivy! wake up!" The whole pack is looking for you. Your father is a mess."
I woke up, wide eye looking at Alpha Simon. The harshness of his voice hurt me, it was a strange feeling. My mouth filled with a bitter taste, and my heart constricted in pain. I got up quickly. Alpha Simon offered his hand but I did not take it I used the boulder I was leaning on to get up. I guess he notices the hurt in my face and his pupils dilate, he can not take his eyes off me. His facial features softened immediately.
I lower my head to him in a submissive way and say. "I am sorry Alpha. I did not mean to cause the pack trouble. I was mad at my dad."
Alpha Simon reaches his hand and touches my chin a faded tingling sensation spreads from where he touched me up my face and down my body. I shiver, it's like his one touch warmed my whole freezing body. Alpha Simon, I guess felt it too because he immediately recoiled and I can see the frown in his eyebrows.
I guess it's because his body is so warm and mine is freezing. After all, I was sleeping outside on a cold night. Alphas are known to give off some of their powers to their pack members like right now he gave me some of his warmth.
"Don't submit to me Ivy, my wolf did not like it, I guess it's because you have beta blood in your veins. If you were older and a male you would be my bate." Alpha Simon now says in a claiming voice.
"Let's go, it's almost midnight. I will shift and take us down the mountain otherwise it will take us 2 hours if we walk down."
I did not reply I just nodded my head, I am just realizing what big trouble I am in right now. It's not even worth the sleepover which transpired this whole running away thing.
Alpha Simon looks at me and asks, "How did you hide your scent? We could not find your scent anywhere. Also, how did you get down your two-story bedroom window? There are no trees around your window for you to climb down. You could not have jumped down, it's too high, you do not get your wolf for another four years? Right? You did not get your wolf yet?"
Now I am confused, how did I jump out of my window? How did I hide my scent? What I remember is I wanted to do it so I did it. It came naturally to me, no fear no hesitation. The scent, I wished it, I did not know it actually happened. We wolfs can not hide our scent no matter how hard we try.
Alpha Simon sees the confusion on my face and lets it go. He walks behind the tree, takes off his clothes, and puts it on his waist. When he walks out from behind the tree, his wolf is massive, his beautiful brown and black fur is breathtaking. He is truly a beautiful animal. Wait, what did I just call Alpha Simon a beautiful animal?
His wolf comes close to me, he places his snout in between my shoulder and my neck where my mate's mark would be, and his wolf licks my skin. I have tingles erupt and again the warm sensation spread through my body.
Then his wolf suddenly steps away and shakes his head. He then gestures for me to get on his back.
