My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done.
Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection.
I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you."
The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo.
Someone yells, “Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain.
The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, “Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?"
Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"

Moon Touched!!

As I was making lunch for myself and wondering what I could surprise everyone with for dinner, I received a link from Kelp. He wanted to warn me about some complaints from the warrior, not part of our little pack, about strange things happening out here. At first, I thought it was funny, but when he said that Alpha Thomas had heard the warriors discussing it and was interested in checking things out himself, I got scared.


My biggest fear is him discovering that I am still alive and taking me back. Finishing what he started twice now at that whipping post in front of the pack. He seems to want to humiliate me in a worse way. I don’t understand his need to control me and make me act accordingly. I stared at the sandwich I had made and started shaking. I can’t go through that again. He could complete the rape the next time and I would not be able to live with that. I would do whatever it took to kill him. If I didn’t, then one of my protectors would.
