Love Of A Werewolf by Forest Ostrander (universal ebook reader .TXT) 📕

"You just got burned," Luna said which made me laugh inside, I could only imagine what his face must have been like.

"Oh shut up," James said but I heard him leave the room.

"Did you really mean that Forest?" Luna asked me, I once more moved my ear but only slightly and she chuckled.

"Serves him right though. He should not have done that to you. I wish you had waited for me, we would have both been like this together and not just you going through it alone." I could hear the sadness in Luna's tone and felt bad, I had only thought of my feelings when I ran out of the house and hadn't even considered what it would do to Luna who had been my friend since cubhood.

"Get better soon ok Forest? We really need ya around girly," I felt Luna pat me and scratch behind my ear before she too left the room followed by the 'Dr.'.

Hey, you do realize if anything happens we are like totally incapable of fighting right?

I know that! But its not my fault I can't move! You're the wolf here, use your healing!

I'm not strong enough. Besides, I have no idea how to even use it properly without doing more damage, didn't Mother Moon give you anything new to help?

No, at least nothing to do with healing that is...then again, Luna and I have yet to fully discover what powers we did get from Mother Moon.

You're an idiot, that should have been the first thing on your mind!

I was too buisy thinking about other things! Geeze, if you think you could do better than you take over!

I would but that would be too much fun, besides you would never be able to go to human form again if I did. Do you really want to remain as a wolf forever? No ability to become human whenever you want?

I don't see anything wrong with it.

Once more you're an idiot. What about when the hunters come? They will surely go for a wolf but not a human! Think before you speak from now on! You're like a pup, blindly going where your paws take you without even thinking about it first.

How would you know? We don't even have puppies!

I just do ok? don't judge a wolf's intuition about things. You have lived with me for years so you should have very well known that.

I don't pay attention to the pups in our pack, why should I? They were always too young for me to play with anyway, or the lower ranking members wouldn't let me get near them because I still held my friendship with Luna.

That's your fault then, but I'm glad you did keep her friendship. We would have been worse off if you hadn't.

I know right? Imagine what mother would think if she had found out?

It's not mother I'm worried about, its father. I had totally forgotten about my dad, if he had known what was going on he would surely send someoen to get me and never let me leave his sight again. I would be confined to the den and unable to go anywhere without them or some kind of guard, I would have no privacy what so ever! I sighed, sometimes my life really was shitty at times.

It could have been worse, we could have been skinned alive by that boy my wolf said.

True, but to be poisoned and slowly dying? I'm sure there would have been a much quicker way to go than that.

I doubt it...unless you like fell of a cliff or something. Or got a hunter to shoot you.

You do think dmeonic at times you know that?

I know My wolf said with a hint of a smile in her tone, sometimes she totally confused me.

I heard some faint rustling around in the room, I was still unable to move and it had already been a week. Luna visited me more often but James didn't come again, he must still hate me for saying yes to still being mad at him. But who cares? He should not have done what he did! I thought, quite frankly, he deserved that answer, he should not have so easily believed such ridiculous rumors.

But it's not a rumor is it, we really are different from them and they have just finally realized it. You had to admit it was only a matter of time before they did find out.

Ya but they didn't have to turn everyone against us! We didn't do anything to them!

Humans always turn on things that they don't understand or are afraid of, they don't think before reacting and do stupid shit because of that. I had to agree with her there but what worried me the most was the noise in my room. No one was there, all the staff had gone away for the night which made me wish for the bed at Luna’s than this cold, hard table they kept me on, I didn't even get a pillow! Honing in on my senses I pinpointed the scent of humans. What are they doing here? I don't recognize their scent!

Oh shit! Forest we are trapped! My wolf said which made me panic. We still couldn't move and there are strange humans in here with no one around to stop them!

What do you think they want with us?

I don't know but we need help and fast!

How? How are we supposed to contact anyone? I've been away from Luna for so long that we lost our childhood connection!

Your mate. He may be mad but even he will feel the pull of fear and needing of help! Use the pull! I was hesitant to use it, James and I were still at odds with one another and the odds of him even bothering to answer the call was slim but I did as she told before I felt a loop around my muzzle and neck and me being lifted up and shoved into some sort of crate.

Shit! We are too late!

Calm down Forest. We can still get out of this, if we have to we will lower all of our vital organs to look like we are dead and when they get rid of us we can come back to life again.

Uh, you're forgetting one thing. Humans destroy the bodies that are dead! My wolf was silent then, I guess I had won the battle between her with this one! Now my main worry was how the fuck I would be able to get out of here when I can't move.

"Hurry up, I want this specimen back at my lab pronto!" It was the voice of the Dr. before. What is he doing here? Why is he doing this? I should have suspected that he was up to no good. A vampire would not help a werewolf out of the kindness of their heart; they hated us with their every being and us them so to do something as help thy enemy was not practiced with them. This is just great, how the hell are we supposed to get out of this now with a vampire around? He won't fall for the death trick!

I don't know, hopefully James heard our call and is getting help as we speak otherwise we should have just died from the poison.

You think? Dying by the hands of a vampire is the worst way to go, I would prefer the poison again before this. I had to admit it, for the first time in my life I felt uterly helpless.

Forest, I think I might know what he has planned for us my wolf said.

Well, don't leave me hanging. What is it?

You might not like it if I told you.

Just tell me, how bad could it really be?

All right, but I warned you. I think he might be selling us to fur traders. I remember mother saying something about how vampires would sell werewolves that they have captured into the fur trade where they will be skinned alive and left do die slowly and painfully. I think he might be one of those vampires hired by the fur traders to capture us! She was right, I didn't like the sound of that one bit.

Do you think its possible that he is one of them?

Think about it, he waited for Luna to leave us and for everyone to officially be gone from this place before bringing in these humans. Not once did he stop them when they were going at us and he knew we were incapable of moving let alone doing something to prevent our capture. How could he not be one of them? She had a point, this Dr. really was a tricky fellow and if he was indeed in the fur trade business I was as good as dead when they get their filthy hands on me.

A few hours on the road, I was hoisted into the air once more, I could hear a lot of voices going on around me and none of them I recognized. This isn't good. Where are we? I thought to myself, I was able to now officially open my eyes thanks to whatever they had given me but I was still immobile in the leg region. Bastards, they must have known I was going to try to make a run for it! I found it highly unfair that they would do this to me when I had done nothing to them but what was I to suspect with being a werewolf? This life comes with high prices and many of us never live to tell the tale to our young.

Hey, do you smell that? My wolf asked me.

No I said back to her.

Then start! It is important that we recognize these scents! Besides, this doesn't smell like a fur trade building.

How do you know what they smell like?

I just do, I could smell it on that girl's jacket. She buys fur from one of the businesses and they smell like death, this place smells different. Now that I had time to think about it, she was right; this place did smell highly different but where were we?

How far do you think we are from the others?

I don't know but from what it felt like, it's a good twelve hours or more. Great, just great. These people better have a good explination for this and I wasn't going to take no bullshit either. They may have made it so
