Chapter Chapter Seven



[Ra’ne’s POV]

'Wake up!' Skie yelled in my head, causing me to grumble. 'That Kin guy has food!' he exclaimed, getting my attention. I was very hungry and I wondered if he would let me eat it if I woke up.

When I opened my eyes again, I could smell fruit and toast. It smelled so good it made my stomach growl loudly causing my face to flush pink. Kin was sitting right next to me reading a book.

“Good after noon, my ember.” Kin said with a smile for me, as he closed his book and set it down.

I blushed even more and tried to sit up. I whimpered when I found that I couldn’t. Kin looked at me before putting his arm under me, gently and lifted me up to put me in a sitting position on top of all the pillows on the massive bed that I was in.

“Don’t feel so bad ok. I had the Doctor come look at you while you were sleeping and it might make you a little weaker than normal.” He explained as he made sure I was comfortable. Which I was by the way. I felt like I was on clouds, which was completely strange for me. I was used to rock hard surfaces.

“Doctor?” I asked, what was that?

Kin looked at me for a second with confusion before realization came to his face. “It’s a Wolf that has special abilities. They can make all your injuries and cuts all better.” He said to me as he put some fruit on a plate before setting the plate on my lap for me to eat.

‘Like Luca before Alpha Grissa found out and cut his head off for healing us.’ Skie said reminding me of the day I lost my older brother.

‘Thank you for that you ASSHOLE.’ I snapped at Skie. ‘I did not need to be reminded of that. I got the gist of it when he explained it THANK YOU!’ I seethed, as a tear ran down my face.

Kin noticed that, because he was watching me, of course he was. Julius was very attentive to us and they had sharp eyes. “What’s wrong baby?” he asked softly his hands twitching in his need to touch me.

“S-skie j-just b-brought u-up a-a b-bad m-memory.” I managed to stutter out softly, trying to hold back my tears that threated to spill over at any moment.

“That wasn’t very nice Skie” Julius said through Kin’s mouth a sort of gentle scolding in his tone.

I could feel Skie sink back in my mind but his Beta nature would not let him stay quiet for long because he was too strong willed for that. “I was just trying to make a point” he replied through me. I growled at him I hated it when he did that. I like to speak for myself.

“It’s alright Ra’ne he was just trying to tell us his side. You see how Julius talks through me. I let him have his say, even when it’s inconvenient at times. It’s very natural for your Wolf to speak through you, let him have his voice and maybe he won’t be so harsh with you.” Kin said an understanding smile on his face. It was a face I was getting used to seeing already.

A face I wanted to always see. And I realized that this was the face of my Mate. The one the Moon Goddess chose for me to be with for my entire life. I wanted to believe he would never leave and looking into his eyes now I felt that I could.

I was happy.

I reached out to touch Kin’s face getting him to look at me. “You promise to protect and always love me?” I asked softly.

Kin looked me in my eyes placing his hand on mine. “I swear to you on my very last breath Ra’ne. I will love and protect you until the very end of time.” He said his voice filled with his love devotion and above all his undying conviction.

I could do nothing but believe every word that he had spoken. It was hard to not believe him the way his olive eyes looked at me with such love and devotion. “Kin, I-I think I’m falling in love with you.” I said getting a soft chuckle from him as he brushed away a piece of hair that had fallen in my face.

“My little ember I fell in love with you the moment I could clearly see your beautiful face. I was falling for you the moment I could sense you Ra’ne.” he said kissing my forehead, “Now please eat your lunch my ember, you need to eat as much as possible.” He said drawing my attention back to my forgotten plate of food on my lap.

I blushed and started to pick at my food. It was so odd to actually have food I could eat without being yelled at for actually eating. Plus, I have the chance to sit and eat it. I didn't have to quickly eat my food or steal anything just to survive. I was experiencing all these things I was never able to before and I had a feeling that this was only the beginning. I had a feeling Kin was going to show me so much more in the days to come.

Now that I was free of the Ironclaw I would be able to actually have a life of my own. I didn’t have to worry about dying at any moment anymore.

‘Now that’s a notion in itself.’ Skie said interrupting my thoughts as usual. He was right though.

‘Think of it Skie we, won’t have to worry anymore. Kin said he will protect us and I have a feeling Julius is even more pigheaded than Kin is. They will keep us safe.’ I thought to him shyly. I hated being so shy and being timid was not something that was good for me but everything scared the begeesus out of me. It always had. Not exactly a good combination when you had a Beta Wolf.

I’m a very small Wolf/Human. Since I was never allowed to learn how to shift Skie was never really allowed to run, so we have been stuck as Human. My shrimpy Human form is only 4ft 8in tall and it was never good enough to make a difference. Now that Kin and Julius had taken us from that hell, I felt that maybe now we could make a difference. Maybe now Skie can learn to fight like he wants too.

I always wondered what it was like to actually feel like my Wolf self. To let Skie be himself and let him take control like he has always wanted. I have always held him back for so many reasons. He has always been the more outspoken of the two of us and that has always gotten us into so much trouble and I have always been terrified of letting him just do his own thing. My entire life has been an inner battle to keep my Wolf quiet but now I may have the chance to let him run and be himself and I just had no idea how to do any of that.

I looked over to Kin, who had gone back to reading his book, and shooting me quick looks just in case I needed something. “Kin,” I whispered softly, instantly getting his attention.

“Yes, my ember?” he asked curiously, setting his book down again.

“You said that letting your Wolf interact with you like that is natural? But I was always told that Omegas shouldn’t be able to speak to their Wolves.” I said seriously. Wondering if it really was only an Alpha and Beta thing.

Kin sighed a little with aggravation, “Grissa was not the best one to teach you anything my ember. Your Wolf is an essential part of who you are. Skie is just as much a part of you as your leg or your arm is. As an Omega you are not as strong as the others but you are still a key part of any Werewolf society. Most Packs have forgotten that most essential part of their teachings and that is why their Packs will all fall to ruin.” He explained thoughtfully his olive eyes a little distant as he looked out the window half way through his explanation.

“Will you teach me how to be better with Skie?” I asked softly, my cheeks flushing pink with embarrassment. I wasn't used to being able to ask for things.

“You want to learn to shift?” he asked me a little shocked. His gaze was soft but surprised I wanted to learn right then.

I nodded a little and he smiled brightly at me. “I want to be with you always.” I said, stretching out my hand wanting to touch him.

“And you will, my little ember. For now, let’s get your strength up. You look like your gunna pass out on me.” He said just before a yawn threatened to make its appearance.

I smiled up at him as he helped me to lay back down on the large bed, I was in. I think it was his bed because everything smelled just like he did. “Ok, as long as I can do it with you.” I said reaching out for him. I wanted him to lay with me but he just laid his head next to mine, not fully laying with me, but it was enough.

He took my hand kissing my knuckles with a tender smile. “We will get through it all together my little ember” he promised as my eyes closed and I fell into a peaceful sleep for once in my life.
