His Plan My Plan
Serafine POV
When we get back, I don’t hesitate I walk through to my room and open the window. The book said the Hollowfang Raven could help. I’ve not tried to reach out to it. Though, I should be able to as I’ve read enough of this journal to know I’m some how linked to them.
Closing my eyes, I try to focus on the connections, trying to figure out which is the Hollowfang Raven. I can’t tell the difference though, even my connection to Xander has twisted and changed into similar.
Sure I can tell it’s him, purely because his feelings come through the connection. I’m not sure if I can feel the Threadborn animals feelings.
A noise startles me and I open my eyes to see the Hollowfang Raven perched on the edge of my bed.
“I need to find a way out of this pack.”
It looks at me and doesn’t reply and now I’m worried I imagined the whole talking Raven thing.
“The closer to your mate you are, the stronger your bonds become.”
My eyes roll. “He’s going to punish me again. I have to leave.”
It moves forward slightly. “We won’t allow it.”
We won’t allow it… If this were a person, surely they would realise how serious this is?
“I can hear your thoughts, I may not look like a person, but I was born of one.”
“Please, my father lied, and right now Xander thinks I’m the enemy; he’s not going to let me stay here. He’s going to throw me out.”
My head drops. “I don’t want to stay somewhere that I’m constantly branded a liar and forced to be the enemy.”
“Come find us when you’re ready.”
“That’s all you will give me? How do I know I can get out, if I’m caught trying to escape I’ll be punished more.”
“You can ride on a silvermane hound, they are big enough to carry a human. They can get out of the border past the beta’s on them.”
“Okay, let’s go then.” I stand up quickly and grab the book.
“You need items. Food, because we will travel for days, blankets, and money.”
“Money?” I don’t understand that one. Packs don’t use money between them, food is shared, and everything is shared. “We’re not going to a pack, we’re going to a city of outcasts, humans, and such.”
My body stills. “You mean we’re going to where the wolves live who were banished for not having a wolf?” I’m not sure how comfortable I am with that.
“They live differently from those in packs. You will need to find a job. Their world is entirely different to yours. Get the items, and consider your move. Maybe speak to Xander, try once more to rectify this issue.”
It flies out of the window.
Moving around the room I search for a bag. I find one, and place some clothes in it. I don’t hesitate, I step out of the room and go to the kitchen. It’s empty, good. I begin to go through the cupboards and grab food that I can easily eat without cooking.
Looking around the kitchen, I search for anything that might have money inside of it. It’s not something I ever thought I would handle. Money in packs like this and my fathers is handled by the alpha only.
The Alpha then decides on who gets what, if someone needs new items they request it from the Alpha.
I can’t find money, though, so I move through the halls, open doors, and search rooms. I don’t feel I will find money. As I round a corner, I hear someone speaking.
“This isn’t like I bought her knowing she was my mate. I bought her as revenge to get back at Giddeon.” Xander’s words are cold. “I bought her in the hopes she would tell me things about her father and his pack. She was nothing more than a pawn, one that isn’t any use right now as she’s not told me anything useful.”
No, that’s not right. Why buy me as a pawn, I’m Successfully unlocked! about my fathers pack. Is that really the
reason I’m here? To tell him about my father? I dont
erstand why he hates me so much.
“This plan has been in the works for a decade. After Giddeon killed my mate, I changed everything, and I was almost there. Buying Serafine was nothing more than a move. If she’s telling him things, lying to me, then what use is she?”
I knew I shouldn’t stay. Why would I? He’s proving he hates me, not for reasons that are right either.
