Chapter Two

1583 Words
I felt it happening, my body contorting, muscles stretching, bones reforming. My first shift. I was terrified, but also exhilarated. My clothing shredded as my new form took hold, my body flooded with strength and power. I emerged from the transformation, panting, on all fours. I shook myself, finding my paws almost matched the colour of the snow. I'd never seen a white Wolf before. My senses were heightened, and I could smell the world in a way I never had before, every scent tempting me in various directions. Heath's words echoed in my mind - Willow tree. It had to be a trick, he and his stupid brothers planning to make me submit now I was a Wolf. It would be more humiliating. The only one I wished to submit to now was my mate, if he was out there. Screw him. I wanted to see the creek, feel the water. It was my sanctuary these last three years, it felt only right I should experience it. I padded towards it, my new body moving with ease. I sniffed the air as I got closer, slowing as I picked up unfamiliar scents of males. No one came out here. It was a shitty little watering hole, the only place I never found anyone else. I slowed to nearly a crawl, peering through the trees line before the creek. My heart stopped. a group of Delta's, friends of the triplets but not of our Pack, waiting for me by the water's edge. Some were Shifted, scenting the air for me, while others lounged on rocks, chatting quietly with cruel grins on their face. I was thankful I'd stayed downwind on my approach, remaining undetected. My instincts screamed at me to run, an unmated of Omega...alone...there was no good reason for them to be here. I sprinted across campus, my heart racing with every step. Heath's words came back to me, my curiousity peaked about why he'd warned me and I changed direction, racing towards the willow tree instead. Breathless and trembling, I reached the tree, there was no one around, the recent snowfall dampened any scent, but there was a solid track of footprints leading into the canopy of the branches. I followed it, finding a love heart drawn into the snow, a small red box nestled in centre. I looked around, Shifting back quickly and crouched in the canopy, finding he'd hidden it in an area that concealed me perfectly. I opened it, revealing a beautiful twisted white gold chain necklace with a tiny hand carved wolf pendant of shining crystal. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes as I realized Heath's kindness. He'd warned me. Got me a gift. As much as I hated him and his brothers, I still had to thank him. I stood up, I remembered I didn't have clothes to change into...Shit. I Shifted back, taking the jewelry box gently between my teeth and I padded towards the boarding house, determined to find Heath. I managed to sneak in unseen, trying to open my door but the stupid round handle and a Wolf mouth, don't mix - granted, when it was a storage closet, I guess it was an easy way to keep out a hungry Wolf. That and I couldn't get the hide-a-key. Sighing, I decided to just go see Heath as I was. Even if he was an asshole, I was a very pretty Wolf and he could suck on that. As I reached the top floor, the Alpha level, I stopped, sniffing the air cautiously. My body responded to three wonderful scents, my mind going dizzy, trying to find the smells origins. An Alpha? I thought, starting to cautiously sniff the doorways. I froze, finding the scent of coconut that made my mouth water. I glanced up, seeing the symbol on the door. a crescent Silver Moon and the letter H. I pressed my nose towards the door, smelling again. And instantly regretted it. Something about Heath's sent sent me scrambling back across the hall, my mind clouded with lustful thoughts. I tried to shake them, but the other two scents I was too afraid to follow joined them, my body being set on fire with need. A door behind me opened, making me turn and my ears dropped as the Alpha of the High Sun Pack emerged from his room, his eyes fixed on me. "Well, well, well. What do we have here?" He sneered, his nose twitching as he took in my arousal. I tried to step back, but I hit Heath's door. The Alpha took a step closer, his eyes gleaming with excitement. I knew I was in trouble. He smirked at me, his eyes black. "Shift for me, little Omega." He sneered, his voice laced with an Alpha's command. I pressed further into Heath's door, whining loudly, hoping he would hear me. The Alpha, Ryker, snarled at my defiance, lunging for me with claws bared. I yelped as he tore my side, his Alpha speed meaning my escape was essentially useless. I howled in pain as he grabbed my ear, tearing me backwards. The sound of a door being thrown open and a voice boomed from down the hall. "Shut the f**k up! I'm trying to have s*x in here!" Sebastian emerged from his room, a pillow clutched to his naked body, his hair disheveled. His eyes scanned the scene before him, and his gaze locked onto me. Ryker didn't release me, he scruffed me like a dog. "That wasn't smart, Omega." He snarled in my ear that was flat against my head. I looked to Sebastian, whining. I froze when he snarled at me. He'd never seen me before in my Wolf form. For all he knew, I was this Alpha's toy. Sebastian seemed...distracted. His eyes narrowed, and he growled, "What's going on here?" Ryker raised me slightly, a pained whimper leaving me. "Found a lost toy," he sniffed me, snarling lustfully. "f**k off, Seb. I want to play with her here." I whimpered. Sebastian's face twisted in a snarl. "Mine," he growled, his eyes flashing with possessiveness. My eyes widened. H-his? But as he strode towards me, his pillow discarded and murder shined in his obsidian eyes. I realized he was dead serious. "Back off, Ryder," Sebastian warned, his voice low and menacing. "Unless you want me to kill you." Ryder snarled, but he backed down, disappearing into his room, glaring at me as he shut the door. Sebastian turned to me, his eyes burning with intensity. "Come with me," he commanded, his voice brooking no argument. I hesitated, fear stopping me. But something in Sebastian's eyes drew me in, and I found myself following him into his room. He tossed something towards his bed, my ears flattening when I realised it was a Delta from another Pack, her lips swollen, her hair a mess and completely naked. "Get out," Sebastian barked. On instinct, I went to leave. His eyes pinned me, a warning snarl leaving him. "Not you." He said to me, turning to the Delta. "You, go. Now!" The woman barely had her dress on, giving me a suspicious and confused glare as she ran out, the door slamming closed. Sebastian pointed to the middle of his large room, his voice soft as silk. "Come here, baby, let me look at you." He narrowed his eyes at my slight limp. "Stop." I froze. Sebastian suddenly crouched beside me, his hands crossing my fur, my skin setting on fire and sparks at his touch. I shuddered, only to whimper and yelp when he touched the cuts on my hind leg. "I'll kill that fucker." He snarled, his hand incredibly gentle as he examined it, his eyes shining. I whimpered, trying to step away. He grabbed a handful of my fur, his eyes meeting mine. "Don't." His voice dropped, the usual demanding or sarcastic tome replaced with...pleading. He watched me for a moment, his hands uncurling and he moved to pat my cheek. He smelt like Earl Grey tea. I pressed into his hand, a small whine of happiness leaving me at his touch. He smiled. "Why do you smell so...familiar?" He asked, tilting his head. "Can I see you, baby?" I stumbled back, fear and panic rocking through me. Oh god. He was going to reject me the moment he knows. His eyes widened, as if he smelt my fear. His hands raised, soothing and his brows tilted in pleading. "I just want to see your pretty face," he said quickly, then almost seemed to realise it was a corny thing to say. I sighed, my Wolf almost sobbing at the look of worry in his eyes. I took a few more steps away from him, taking a deep breath and said a silent pray. My Shifting was slower, being newer it took me almost five minutes to be crouching before Sebastian, completely naked, vulnerable. My eyes finally met his after he'd said nothing after a minute. They were wide and surprised....but not angry or disgusted. More...awed. He whispered. "Y-You're my mate?" I couldn't answer with the threat of tears choking me. A whimpered agreeance leaving me instead. The door slammed open, making me scramble away, trying to cover myself. "Where the f**k is she?" Warrick's voice tore through the room. Heath flanked his shoulder, his eyes pinned on me. Warrick's found me. They both widened as they caught my scent. They snarled. "Mine."
