The Golden Wolf by Rizonne Alexander (books to read fiction TXT) 📖

him. I could feel his eyebrow raised on that question. “No, nothing but once everything in the Creek is sorted and you are safe; I want to go to the witch’s village. They are not too far off from the Creek.” He explained “Oh, I didn’t know the witches are also situated in this area.” I said shockingly. “I swear I never saw one witch when I stayed here.” I responded again. “You won’t yes, they don’t mingle to well with the wolfs however I know there was an ancient deal signed between us. All we know is that we stay out of each other’s ways and do not kill each other. That is it and how we were raised.” He said. “I do hope she is okay, I know this is unlike her. So, what is happening to your business at the moment?” I asked. “Very good question my love.” He said kissing me. “I just checked up on my stand in manager now and assistant, all my branches are still up and running. Orders and payments are well, no crisis.” He said. “That’s great, okay let’s clean up.” I said shooing him off the bed. As I was making up the bed, Flynn hoped into the shower. I cleaned up, took out my clothes for the day as well and preparing to take a shower too. I decided to go casual because I know I will be changing into a wolf. I took out my black jean with long sleeve halter neck top and my sneakers. Fuck today my short hair should just work with me for once. I packed up the rest of our things neatly onto the bed as Flynn came out the bathroom dressed already. “While you taking a shower, I will go and get us some breakfast okay.” He said kissing me again. “Okay, please don’t be too long. I’m hungry.” I stated. “Don’t worry babe, I love you.” He said as he left the room. “I love you too!” I yelled back hoping he heard.

Two hours later and I’m still waiting on Flynn. I have showered, dressed and finished up cleaning and still no sign of him. I have rung about six times already but his mobile just rings. I’m getting really worried, we are really close to the Creek and anything could happen. For fucks sake my father’s plan could have even changed overnight! I decided to make my way down to the reception to ask them in which direction they might have seen Flynn go. “Morning, have you guy seen a tall guy, black spikey hair. He is wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans.” I stated. “Morning, yes I saw Mr Gordon earlier. He asked me the nearest food place to which I told him to take a right at the entrance and he will see the burger shop.” She explained to me. “Thank you” I said and made my way out. I saw the place almost immediately but police cars were surrounding the place. I ran towards the place and stopped a stranger. “What’s going on?” I asked her. “There was a fight but they got away. The place was messed up. They even had a dog attack some poor guy.” She explained. My heart and soul dropped by hearing those words. “What was he wearing? The guy that got attacked?” I asked almost in tears. “Uh I think a black t-shirt.” She replied looking at me strangely. “Do you know the guy?” she asked me. “Uh no, sorry wrong person.” I replied and turned around. My tears started rolling down my cheeks and I kept wiping them away but fuck they wouldn’t stop and I can’t even think straight. I crossed the road to a park and sat on one of the swings. They took him, I know it was them. I don’t know if his dead or alive. This could even be a way to get me to the Creek, well that was my whole fucking plan. They didn’t need to take him, kill him. My heart was burning as I felt the rage fill through my veins. Now is not the time to lose control over you wolf; I then stood up and bravely made my way south towards the Creek. My father took everything away from me, he stripped me and made me a runt because of his greediness. He caused my emotional suffering for all these years because he kept my mate away and now that I found him he takes him away again. Not a fuck. Then I hear my mother had to choose for the sake of the Luna pack, which I understand because he would have slaughtered everything. This is done, I am done standing back and I am going to fight for what is right. My chest started to burn, my stomach rumbled. I was really hungry and thirsty. The long dusty dirt road that I walked down at least had a few shops. I stopped at one and just bought me a take-way pie and soda. Once I reached the end of the road I just had a field to cross and over a small cliff and I would be there. I’m currently in dangerous grounds meaning that my father’s men could be anywhere right now but I know for a fact that this was a planned move. They are waiting for me. I know it. The pie and soda did not help that much, I still had some space that I could fill with food. I came to the end of the road. I took a deep breath, if the thought the road was dangerous, this is the dangerous part. I’m going to be crossing the border now. I started my walk through the field, I remember this field very well. I ran through it the night I got banished and thrown out. My heart started to pace as I smelled the wolfs on the other side of the cliff, I just had to be strong. I’m no little girl anymore, I have been through hell and back. The ancestors chose me for a reason. I am the Golden wolf I thought to myself. In no time I crossed the border and stood in front of the cliff. In front of this cliff stands the wolf village. I kneeled on one knee and said a prayer. I got up and started the climb up the cliff. I felt electricity going through my veins, I looked at my arms and saw my veins are glowing again. The ancestors are with me, I know this is what they want and I know they are protecting me all the way. Half way through the climb up I could feel my wolf waken. She was ready for what is next. She howled inside of me, she was ready. I was ready. Although I have been avoiding this for a long time, I can’t wait to see my father’s face as I take my rightful place. I can’t wait to fix what is broken and I can’t wait to build what should have been build. The huts and sheds started peeking out as I climbed higher, the Luna pack was extremely traditional by the way they live. They do not socialise with the outside world and basically still live in an era of Queen Victoria. Finally I was on top and looking down below to the tiny village. Everyone who was walking and working stopped immediately in their tracks and looked up to me. Everyone turned there gaze to me.

I looked down at them all, I stood tall and did not flinch. I wonder if they know who I am I thought to myself. The crowds gathered closer, kids ran with their mothers towards me. I could see they were preparing for the Full Moon feast and run. “Who are you?” someone shouted from the crowd towards me. “I am Lyra Mucker, Golden Wolf born from the Luna pack!” I shouted to all and kept my pose. Everyone gasped in disbelief. “Impossible!”, “Ridiculous!”, “You’re an Imposter!” the crowd shouted back at me. “Why would you not believe?” I shouted back. “Lyra Mucker is dead!” someone shouted. I could feel rage boiling u inside of me and my wolf was not happy as well. I slowly walked down the cliff when three people or more transformed into wolfs, I still did not flinch. I don’t blame them for how they feel but I will not be intimidated either. I could hear the growls at my ankles when someone shouted. “STOP!” a man shouted through the crowd. The crowd split and gave way, immediately they bowed. I could feel my heart racing and I knew it was my father. I did not show any sort of being submissive to him and I looked him straight in my eyes as he made his way towards me. “Well look what we have here, isn’t this my dead daughter?” he said smirking and everyone gasped upon hearing that I truly am Lyra Mucker. I could feel my teeth wrenching and fists forming, my tears were probably near too. “Say something Lyra.” He said again. “I challenge you to a Madirah.” I stated. Everyone around me couldn’t believe what they heard. My father stared at me and tilted his head. “You want to challenge me? To be Alpha? You just a little runt that I kicked out of the pack many moons ago.” He said laughing. “Oh, so you are admitting now in front of the pack that you kicked me out?” I said crossing my arms across my chest. “I am Alpha and I do and say as I please.” He said with a low growl, “How about we discuss this inside this inside? Maybe you would like to see your mother and siblings my dear daughter.” He said smiling. I could not help myself and I slapped him right across the face. “Go to hell.” I said back in a growl, “I’m saying this again. I am challenging you to a Madirah; do you accept?” I asked staring at him. The crowd around us started to cheer and by now I’m sure they accepted who I am. He wiped his mouth and looked at me. “Yes, I do accept. The challenge will take place in one hour.” He said angrily. He then turned around and walked off. I gave a sigh of relief. “Child, are you really Lyra?” an old lady asked me. “Yes, I truly am.” I replied. “I saw you when you were just a pup running around the dusty roads. You have grown beautiful.” She said and I smiled. “Are you here to save us?” another asked. “Yes, I am. I am going to bring this village the joy that it deserves and the riches in culture.” I responded. “Child, are you the Golden wolf?” another elderly woman asked. “I am yes.” I responded. I felt flustered by all the questions. “Alright everyone, can you give Lyra some space.” A woman said coming from behind the crowd. It was my mother, she has not aged a bit. Her black locks still met her lower back and her eyes still crystal blue. “Mother!” I squealed and ran to her. I hugged her dearly and she held on to me as if her life depended on it. She pulled away and cupped my face, “Are you okay?” she asked with tears in her eyes. “Well, for now I am but something terrible happened.” I stated. She took my worryingly and steered me away from the crowd towards the house. “Your father went into the woods to prepare for the Madirah, he is furious Lyra.” She said as we walked into the house. Everything was still the same, the photos, the smell and furniture. Nothing changed. “Home.” I said out loud as I breathed in the smells of food being cooked for tomorrows festivities. We both sat
