The Wolf Who Saved Me

I woke up feeling a little better. I got an urge to look at the window, so I walked towards it. The trees were dancing with the wind again. I could imagine the caress of the breeze on my face.

“Let me go for a walk,” I whispered.

I was about to turn when I noticed a chubby man walking, probably to go to the gate. I could not see his face, but I knew he was not a pack member. I don’t want to discriminate, but I have never seen someone chubby in the pack.

“Probably, a visitor,” I said.

I went down and went for a walk outside. My legs still feel weak. I had never imagined I could be this much sick. I mean, I have not even done anything except think and I end up like this.

Last night, when I watched the pack doing an evening run from the window, I missed it. I wanted to run, too. But my legs are too weak even to walk, how much more to run.

“What happened to you, Wren? Were you cursed or what?” I asked myself while going slowly down the stairs.

The usual two minutes walk towards the main door took probably like ten minutes right now. My legs are still shaky but manageable. And after fifteen minutes, I was outside near the forest entrance.

I closed my eyes and feel the breeze on my face. I missed this fresh air and being outside. I felt like it had been long, like I had lost my ability to walk, and this was the first time I was walking again.

The pack has left a stool outside. I walked towards it and sat. I just wanted to see the beauty and appreciate the silence. I heard a bird and smiled at it as it flew from the tree.

“What are you doing here?” Reule asked.

I got startled. I did not expect Reule to come out of the forest. I thought he was inside the house.

“I just wanted to get some fresh air,” I said softly.

“But how are you? Last night, you could barely stand.”

“My legs still feel weak, but I could slowly walk. I just missed being outside for some reason.”

Reule looked at me with sadness and anger. I could not understand it. I felt like he wanted to tell me something, but he could not say it.

“But you could not stay here for long. It is starting to be cold, and the evening run will start soon.”

“I know, but I am getting bored there. Why were you inside the forest? Were you checking on something?”

“I was talking to someone earlier.”

“You mean the chubby man whom I saw walking from this direction towards probably the gate?”

Reule’s eyes widened before asking, “Did you meet him?”

“No. I was still up in my room, looking outside the window. I could not even see his face. But who was he? Why were you talking inside the forest? Did something happen?”

“He was just someone who wanted to give some information about the trespassers that were here before.”

“Did he tell you who they were?”

“No, but I got a confirmation of my theory was right. Conri would be paying Henry to spy here since your alpha is too afraid to cross my territory.”

“Were they the ones who had been here?”

“Hmm.. I don’t think so. According to that guy, Henry had not done it yet. It might be because Conri has not paid him the money.”

“Then, who came here? Didn’t you say that one of them was from the Blue Pack?”

“Yes, that was for sure. But it might have come here for a different reason. It looks like I need to visit Henry.”This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“It depends on how the conversation would go, but I am willing to take a risk. I just need to wait for a week.”

“Why would you need to wait? Who knows if they will come back here.”

“I’m sure Landon is capable enough to handle a single wolf. Henry would be stupid to send an army. But I need to wait because I need to meet the lady where that man gets that information with.”

“Which lady? From the Blue Pack or the White Pack?”

“Your pack.”

I was surprised and said, “But I have not seen that man before. How come he will be in touch with us?”

“Forget about him; he is not a wolf. He just slept with a lady named Ivana. Do you know her?”

“Ah, Ivana, one of the cleaning ladies who hate me. She had a crush on Caleb, but everyone said she was more like a prostitute than a werewolf. So, was she the one who had been giving information to that chubby man?”

“Yeah, she did because she got paid, and she hated your beta. I am asking Glen to arrange a meeting for me. I wanted to confirm the details and asked what else she knows.”

“Can I come when you meet her?”

“Of course not. What’s the point of keeping you here if I am just going to show you to her.”

“But I thought you wanted to surrender me back to the White Pack?”

“To Conri, not to a cleaning lady. Come on. It’s getting cold, and we need to start preparing for the evening run.”

Reule asked for my hand, and he helped me get up and walk back to the house. I have never seen him this gentleman. I have always found him arrogant and doesn’t care about people. But the way he held me made me feel loved and protected.

‘What’s going on with me? Of course, he helped me because he didn’t like to wait. I walked like a turtle, and it would take how many minutes to reach the door. It doesn’t mean anything. But why do I feel this way?’

Reule looked at me. I think he noticed me thinking but he did not say anything. He just looked at me with those sad eyes that I have seen earlier. And it doesn’t make me feel comfortable.

‘Why are you so sad?’
