The Covenant -Wolf of the Covenant
The music that blared form the bar was ear pounding as I walked through the doors. I was in my second year of collage. Far, far away from Romania, Gabriel, Aiden and most of all Ulf. They where all a thing of the past to me now.
I was a new person, not tied up in pack quails and thoughts of a human. Though Aiden did cross my mind every now and then. I had not changed into a wolf for many mounts (almost a year) After everything that happened after a one night stand with Ulf I knew I didn't belong with the pack. Nor with a human. So I decided to change scenes I traveled back to the US and started college under a art degree. I know Aiden would have loved this.
I opened the door to the bar and let the music hit me. Ths was a very different dance club then what I was used to. The way regular humans danced and the way we Loup Garoux moved where very different. I went to the bar and sat down. It was times like this that I missed the pack, especially the five. I did not regret my decision but I did however miss the harmony that used to be a part of us.
I looked around the bar taking in the sights. The dance floor was full of happy dancing couples. I felt a little left out and found myself missing Ulf. Yes he had been an idiot and it was all his fault that my life was such a screw up.
I spied the pool table over in the corner of the room. I had developed a taste for this game over the year and found it to be very stress relieving. I marched over to the corner of the room and grabbed a pool stick. This was the first time in a while that I could get to the table as it was not guarded by the so called "king of pool" Reid.
Reid and I had fought ever since we met. He was stubborn, bad ass that always thought he could get whatever or whoever. He wanted. He was a nice enough guy though a new part of this niceness came from the fact he was just trying to get somewhere. "He wouldn't want me if I knew what he was." I thought sadly.
I leaned over the pool bored my eyes turning gold as I narrowed in on the triangle of balls that where awaiting my break.. I felt the animal inside me sizing up the target like it was a deer in the woods.
"Easy don't change here I'll be shot"
My white ball rolled down the table breaking all the balls in a quick bang! I was amazed at myself as each and every ball rolled into a hole without so much as a hesitation.
"Not bad Vivian"
I jumped whipping around to face the deep voice who had spoken. Reid stood their looking quit good as the strobe light caught the gold in his blond hair perfectly. His ice eyes glowed like the silver thunder moon sending a small shiver up my back. He stepped toward me nodding his head in approval at the empty table. He looked my up and down his eyes glowing just the slightest bit brighter.
"How about we play a little game since... you seem to be so gifted at this game. Whada say we wager a little bet."
He steeped close to me a direct challenge in his eyes.
"Well I...
My words where cut off as a familiar sent dragged to my nose. I turned my head as my sensitive ears caught the sound of a very familiar motorcycle. Reid stepped another stride closer, closing the air between his body and mine. His eyes played with my senses. Reid leaned his head ageist mine daring me. I found myself reaching up towards him my fingers slowly starting to foram claws that prepared to dig themselves into his neck.
I felt a low growl rise in my throat. The door to the bar opened and I found myself jumping back form his grasp. He growled in frustration but I didn't here it as Gabriel walked into the bar. His eyes a amber glow agent every light in the bar.
Heads turned and all the girls that had been dancing with their boyfriends seemed to forget them as they took in the strong shape that was Gabriel. Form behind me I herd Reid whisper something to the leader of his little gang Caleb.
Gabriel spotted me and stepped outside the door holding it open his eyes in no mood for my games. "How the bloody hell did that brute know I was here! Dammit why can't he just leave me alone!"
I thought about heading out the back door and ignoring him. But I found myself following him outside. I herd the other girls in the bar whispering to each other. Gabriel slammed the door shut. I waited for his usual threats and sassy comments but instead he just stared at me.
"So this has what has become of my beautiful mate, first I catch her with my a murder then with my son and now she's gone and given herself to a warlock. What is your plan next Vivian screw a vampire?" he laughed stepping back to lean ageist a ally wall. His tight fit mussels glowed through his white shirt.
"Listen Gabriel" I began. "I know you want me to come and lead beside you but I do not wish it. I'm trying to forget the Loup Garoux within and be a normal girl." I took a step back to lean agent the ally wall across form him.
He laughed a growl rising in his throat. "Viv my darling you cannot escape the animal inside you she will make you what you are. Even now I can see her in you, your eyes, teeth, hair and mind she's their. You are what you are."
"Why have you come back? I am NOT going home!" I snarled interrupting him.
Gabriel crossed the ally and came to stand just inches in front of me. His eyes showing him truly was. I could tell he to wanted to lean into me but he knew I would kill him if he tried.
"I came back because of that boy you where so closely snuggled up to. I want to tell you to stay away form him. He knows what you are Vivien and our kind do not mix. Trust me I know. He is just using you. I do not think you would wish to be used by a human... yet again." He smiled a wolfish smile knowing he had struck a cord.
I snarled and without thinking let the she-wolf inside take control. My eyes caught the refection off the moon, they glowed a deep gold under the light. My fingers grew into claws and I found myself going to my knees dropping to all fours.
Gabriel smiled with satiation.
"Now that's my girl. Lets see what Reid thinks of you when you show your true self to him" he dropped to all fours as well.
I prepared to leap at him but stopped dead in my tracks as the door to the bar open and a girl and boy stepped out. I jumped back up calming the wolf within. I turned to see where Gabriel had gone.
He had vanished. I leaned ageist the wall feeling dizzy. I sat against the wall closing my eyes for a second. Trying to figure out what had just happened. Gabriel had tracked me I knew that for sure. He had tracked me before and not shown himself till he was ready now he had done it again.
"You can just be jealous! I don't give a shit" I thought.
I got up and strolled back into the bar. When I opened the door all eyes turned to me. "Sorry he's gone" I teased before heading back to the pool table. Reid was still their whispering to Caleb. They both stopped talking when they saw me.
"So we gonna play beautiful?" Reid smirked.
"Name your stakes" I challenged.
"You first" Reid challenged back.
"Well lets see if you really are a warlock stud" I smiled secretly at him.
"Anything I want?"
"Yep name it" he said
"Show me the covenant" I said keeping my voice normal. I watched his expression. I saw a mussel tense in his shoulder as his grip on the pool stick tightened. He turned to look a Caleb who looked awe stricken.
"Done" he said after a moment.
"And if you win?" I was taking a risk with this. In my mind I knew what he was going to stake. He didn't say anything. He just looked at me with a look I knew all to well. I looked deep into his eyes and saw the tiniest hint of flame that burned right across his eyes then burnt out. He didn't have to say anything his wager was clear.
"and don't think i'm not temped to fofill it.."
"Agreed"
Caleb and the rest of them all whooped with satisfaction.
