Howling Hearts

When I exited the pack house the bright light blinded me for a short while. When my eyes adjusted to the bright weather outside, I saw a massive crowd of at least ten thousand people all gathering in front of the Pack house. It looked like an ocean of heads and faces. Some seemed intrigued and others seemed bored and in a hurry to be someplace else. Lucian grabbed hold of my hand and everyone's eyes widened at the gesture.

"Good morning Silvermoon", he said in a proud and powerful tone. "Good morning Alpha", the crowd said in unison, making me feel the vibration of their voices in my chest.To access the complete chapters for free, visit FindNovel,com. "I know your all wondering why there is a gathering here today. I have brought you excellent news", he continued, and looked back at me with a bright million dollar smile.

One that could make any woman melt at the sight of it.

A smile that I was far from immune.

"I have brought you your Luna".

Everyone looked between me and whoever was standing next to me. There wasn't a cheer or booing but just confused looks that masked their faces and thoughts.

I looked next to me and saw Riley standing there in a slip dress just like mine. She was trying far too hard. She winked at me when she saw me looking at her and I looked back forward to the crowd trying to calm my anger.

Riley stepped in front of me, covering my frame from the crowd. When Lucian looked at her she gave him a big sloppy kiss. The crowd gasped while I was shaking with anger and trying my best not to kill her on the spot. I felt a hand pull me back into the pack house and the last thing I saw was Riley being pushed away by Lucian.

He was searching for me. His eyes were apologetic but I knew this wasn't his fault, it was hers. "Scarlet, Calm down" Layla said. "ILLL KILL HER", I growled. Layla just kept rubbing my back.

I could hear Lucian calming down the crowd and attending to his alpha responsibilities.

"Sorry there was a misunderstanding", he said. Before entering the pack house. When his eyes met mine, I could still see some of her lipstick staining the corners of his mouth.

He stood before me. I wanted to mark him, to mark me, but not to join us in a bond unbreakable but to get that b*tch off his back and out of my way. He took hold of my hand.

"I'm so sorry scarlet I had no idea she was going to do that, I promise..." I placed my finger in front of his mouth before I started cleaning the lipstick off the corner of his lips. A stain that was ruining his handsome face.

"Get rid of her before I do", I said in a low voice filled with warning and hatred. I stared into his eyes, not breaking eye contact for a second to show him just how serious I was.

Moon goddess:

"Astraeus, it seems like your son's choices have put a stop at the rapid growth that their bond was having" I said to him. His lips were frowned and disappointed. I just shook my head as i watched this play out before me. Scarlet: When I walked through the school doors, everyone had their eyes on me. I was still fuming at what had happened and needed to get away from Riley before I did something I would regret.

"Scarlet, I'm really proud of you. I personally would've ripped the head of her body" She said, laughing menacingly at the thought.

"You think I don't want to." I spat at her.

"Geez Scarlet what did I do to you" She was right. I was taking it out on her, which wasn't fair. I straightened my back and shook my arms as if the anger was wet droplet that had coated them and that would get rid of it. I took a few deep breaths and when I was done, I looked at Layla. "Sorry I'm just upset"

"Girl, I get it your forgiven" She showed me around the school the theme seemed to be silver blue and white.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Which lined the walls in abstract patterns, making it seem like a high end private school. There were photos that hung on the wall of the best students, the principal and some teachers, I suspect.

"And here will be our class" she said when we stood in front of a closed door. She placed her hand on the handle and looked at me to give the confirmation that I was ready.

I nodded and she swung the door open, revealing a class full of students with a teacher. "This is Mister Flanagan", Layla said. He had worn a pair of black jeans and a colored shirt. A grey vest was pulled over and it was paired with a set of light brown timberland boots. He had a set of copper frame glasses that fell onto his cheeks.

He smiled, which caused them to lift up. His hair was an ashy tone revealing the age that was creeping up on him. "Scarlet, nice to meet you". He nodded and gestured for me to take a seat.

There were two desks open right next to each other. Layla ran up to hers and sat down. She then gestured with her head for me to follow her.

I sat down at the desk. I was fearful that I would be overdressed, but looking around the classroom everyone here had dressed up.

As Mister Flanagan continued to teach and write on the board, I felt someone's breath at the back of my neck. I decided to ignore it.

"You look beautiful", a male voice whispered into my ear. My body stiffened and the person giggled. "My name is Aiden. What's yours gorgeous?"

"Taken", I said. It was obvious that he was flirting and trying to get me into his bed.

"That's a funny name" he said. I was shocked that he couldn't catch the hint so I turned my head to look at Aiden.

His eyes were a beautiful emerald green that contrasted with his tanned skin, making them shine even brighter. His hair was a dark brown, almost black color.

They were slightly curly on the brink of being wavy. He smiled wide, showing his pearly whites. And although he was gorgeous, he wasn't nearly on the same level as my mate.

I place my hand on his forehead and pushed him away, making it clearer that I'm not interested.

"Playing hard to get" He asked while sitting at his desk, I turned around and looked at him with no feeling what so ever

"No I'm just not interested just because you have a pretty face doesn't mean every girl wants to fall at your feet"

"So you admit that im attractive" He said grinning. "Not as attractive as my mate" I quickly clapped back.

"Oh really who is that?" HE asked challenging me

"Alpha Lucian" I said with pride and confidence.

"He is my one and only so back off" he sat thinking for a while chewing on his pen.

"Well are you his one and only?" he asked making me stunned at the question.

"What do you mean?"

"Well from what ive heard he kissed Riley Night This morning infront of the full pack as he wa introducing his Luna. So I'll ask you again, are you his one and only?" "It was a misunderstanding"

"I don't know it looked like a kiss to me. A passionate one at that"

"F*ck you", I said to him and faced the front of the class again, trying to concentrate on Mister Flanagan.

"I'd love you to" he said in a snarky tone behind me.
