Chapter 2 Gossip

~~~~~

sometimes I don't understand,

Are you blind?

Don't you see the pain behind my cold eyes ,my hard core act and my scars behind my smile

OR

are you just blinding yourself because you want to run away from my darkness and you are scared of being pulled in

Raven's POV

Present

It's 37 minutes past 9

I'm still in my office setting down some papers and signing warrior approval forms

Yes, I am the head warrior

Knock, knock

I already know who it is, thanks to my werewolf blood

“Leo, come in” I said softly knowing he could hear me

Leo comes waltzing in

“What's up” he asked

“Do not 'what is up' me, What do you want now?” I asked looking at his face

“My dad sent me to come tell you to get information from the full moon pack” Leo said

well that's exciting

“You mean I finally get to kill their asses, right?” I asked with a bit of hope

They did not do anything, but they still undermine our pack

“No Raven, you must get information only not reek havoc” He said with a stern face which did not intimidate me

“That's not possible” I said, I mean I'm not going to lie. If I see their Alpha I'm going for a kill

It's kill or be killed, baby

“Never mind, I will have to go” he said getting ready to leave

He took a few slow steps away from me

“Wait, okay I won't kill anyone unless it's necessary. I promise” I promised, and I intend to keep my promise

“Good, you will be going this midnight, and you will go with back up” he said with a smirk on his face.

“I'm fine with only me and Vicky” I said

“Hell no, Vicky ain't going” Leo said with a big frown on his face

“I need to teach her my ways” I said

“Plus you don't even get a say in this” I said

“She is my sister” I added

“And she is my -” Leo said, but I cut him off

“Blah, blah, blah I will mind link her and see what she thinks about you arguing with me” I said

I saw his jaw visibly dropped

“Fine, She can go” he concluded

“Wow, that's more like it” I said

He left and all I know is that he is angry

Vicky, come to my office

I mind linked her

I'll be there in 5 minutes

She responded

(4 minutes later)

Victoria barged in

“Don't you know how to knock?” I ask

“You called me, so I'm sure you expected me” Vicky responded with a smart remark

“Okay, sit down” I said pointing at the chair in front of me

She sat

“Ray, why am I here?” She asks

“We are going to the full moon pack” I said

She smiled

“Wait, did you just say we?” She asked

I nodded

“But how did you get Leo to let me go?” She asked and that was a question I was expecting

“I have my ways and I always win the arguments” I said with a slight grin

“You get your way every day” Victoria laughed

“Now go get ready, get out” I said with a stern face

“Okay bipolar much”

“Victoria!”

“Okay, mind link me when your ready” She said as she left

This was going to be fun

I'm so disappointed in the warriors who signed up this year, but you win, you lose …. I got this strong warrior from the crystal moon pack, and I'm loving her background.

Anyway I'm done with the forms and papers its time for action

I checked the time

(It's 23:13 now)

Vicky, we are leaving soon

I mind linked her

Ok, I am coming

She responded

She came in more like she modelled in

She looks stunning

“Vicky, we are going on a mission not a party” I said with a dissatisfied frown

“I know, but mom always said everything you do, do it with style” She quoted mom

She is wearing all black I'll give you that

She has a black leather jean on and a zip up black hoodie, so I have no idea what she is wearing inside and black shoes that must cost a lot

While I am wearing a leather pretty much everything

I am wearing a black t-shirt, a leather jacket, leather pants and leather combat boots

All black

“Let's go” I said with a grin

We shifted for the run to the full moon pack

My wolf-Ava

She is all black with ice blue eyes

While Vicky's wolf-Lillie

She is Brown with hazel green eyes

Anyway

We have been running for about 40 minutes, we have reached the border of the full moon pack

As we shifted back and yeah, we shifted back with our clothes on

Let me just say we have a connection with witches who owe us a favor, so we asked them to make us charms that allow us to shift back with clothes on.

I saw 2 girls or should I say prostitutes, Wow they are practically naked. One of them had a short skirt on and a lower top that shows things I would rather not see, while the other slut was wearing a dress that reached below her knee

Thank the moon goddess for her jacket because if not, I would have seen some things that could give me nightmares.

Vicky, There are two girls close to the border

I mind linked her

I think they came to gossip

She responded

How do you know that?

I asked hoping she ain't part of it

Remember some packs have the rule called 'If it ain't your business Shut up'

She answered

Yeah and...

I replied wanting her to elaborate

My friends and I made a way to gossip without being heard; I think my idea spread across other packs

she answered with a guilty smile and there goes all my hope

I will speak to you about this later

I replied disappointed

She went silent

I toned in to the girls conversation

“Have you heard, Lucas is taking the alpha title next week on his 22nd birthday” girl number one spoke

That's a bit late

“Yeah but why now, I mean other alpha's took the title at 19” girl number 2 asked

Yeah why now

“Because alpha had a problem with his son. Lucas is a player, badass, cruel person and not fit to rule a pack in his father's eyes. So, his father deemed him unworthy of the alpha title” girl number 1 replied

“I know, but Lucas hasn't changed at all” girl number 2 said

“Yes he hasn't, he is still the same, but alpha is sick and is getting too weak to rule the pack, and he is forced to hand over his title to his immature son” girl number 1 answered.

Wow, this will be exciting news for dad and alpha

Vicky mind linked me

Guards are heading this way so let's get going, She added

Let's go, I responded

We silently left the scene, 40 minutes later. We reached our territory.

“Go rest, you did good. Don't forget to inform Leo that we are back, see you in the meeting” I said.

“See you tomorrow and good night” she said as she headed to her room

I have never had a good night

I reek, I have to shower. Furthermore, I can't wait for alpha to hear this news… But until tomorrow.

I showered, but I can't sleep, so I looked at the pictures of mom

It gave me a reason to fight

And a reason to live

I fell asleep with a picture of my mom

And all I could think about is my blood oath that I have yet to fulfill
