Chapter 17
Kelly POV
We went to the medical wing; she was stitched up, and apparently, I ripped her bad hip out of the socket. She had a bad hip since she was younger, I guess. I will have to go see her when I am all stitch up. She gave me a gash from the top of my shoulder to the bottom of it. Also, she put a couple of canine marks on my ankle, but it will all heal in time. Alpha Michael stayed with the whole time; Ryan tried too as well but Alpha Michael sent him out to do somethings around the border, which I thought was weird because he has never done that before. He has seemed ok with how close, Ryan and I, have gotten in the few weeks I have been here. Now he is sending him away, I guess we will push it to the side for now.
My birthday is in two days now and I do not know whether to be excited or not. Amy and Christy said they will take care of everything for the party, I told them that I did not need anything big, but they said that it was a werewolf thing, big parties were a big thing here, apparently, they have a party for everything here, birthdays, birth of a child, retirements, and they even have annual BBQ's every year. Jack's pack you were lucky if you get a happy birthday from anyone.
We are now currently walking to the pack house when Ryan runs up to us, "Alpha, we caught a rogue by the lake. He is saying that he needs to talk to you, that he has something important to talk to you about." I look toward Alpha Michael, he looks at Ryan, "How can you communicate with him, he is in his wolf form, right?" Ryan looks at me than back at Alpha Michael, "No, he walked up to the border with his hands in the air, saying that he was not here for trouble he just had to talk to the Alpha." I look back at Alpha Michael, "Can I come with you?" Both of them snap their hands to me and both at the same time, "NO". I look from one to the other, "Why not?" Ryan then steps closer to me, "You just came out of the medical wing with stitches, what if this guy decides to attach or something like that?" I look him in the eyes, "I am fine, and if he was going to attach, he would have done it, the reason I know that is because he came up to you in his human form not his wolf form, he made himself easy prey." I cross my arms, waiting for the next fight to come out of either of their mouths but nothing came.
I look over to Alpha Michael, to see him looking back at me, "How do you know that?" I look at him with sadness in my eyes, "My dad told me that when I was a young pup, he told me if a wolf feels scared or threatened in any way, they will stay in their wolf form till they feel safe." He nods his head at me and looks at Ryan, "She can come, but you are to stay behind me or Ryan at all times. Do you understand?" I nod my head, "Yes, let's go." We start to head toward the spot the rogue is standing, and I realize it is the same way we came from when I first came here, I start to wonder this guy came from. Was he one of the rogues down in the dungeon with me, or is it someone else?
As we get closer, I start to smell a familiar scent, but I cannot put my finger on it. We turn a bend in the trees, Alpha Michael and Ryan move closer to me. Alpha Michael is blocking my view from this guy, using his alpha voice, "What is your business here?" I hear the other wolf take a step toward us, everyone growls, "I mean no harm, I am here to ask for some help?" I look up, I know that voice, I push past Alpha Michael and Ryan to see it was the rogue from the dungeons that saved me. He looks at me with shock and relief, I smile at him and ran to hug him, "It is you; I am grateful to see you got out too." He hugs back tightly. "I am glad to see you are ok, too" He then looks up to Alpha Michael, "We need to talk, and I mean all of us" Then he looks back at me.
