These past couple of months have been the craziest, busiest, weirdest, and somehow greatest months of my life. Never had I expected all of this to transpire into what it became. Being taken to Sawtooth was the start of many surprises that would come.
I mean first I break my leg which ends up getting us taken to Kate's long lost uncle who happened to have gone through the same thing as Kate and I; being in love with someone of the opposite rank. Cecil had actually given up becoming the head alpha of the west in order to be with the one he love who was an omega. After hearing that Story, Kate decided she wanted the same thing and that night we confessed our love for each other, which became on of the happiest days of my life. Then I end up meeting my parents and siblings, which was a roller-coaster of emotions all in itself; but in the end I was happy to have them in my life.
Of course the joy couldn't last as my injuries were much more severe than we thought and I almost ended up dieing. I was passed out for the decision, but they decided that the only way for me to survive was to taken in by the Park Rangers. So they dropped me off and the humans fixed me up. After that they put me in a gated off area for me to heal and that's where I met McCabe. The wolf who lost his memory from being pushed off a cliff by Garth. He was a nice wolf at heart with his memories lost, but his past wouldn't quite describe him as nice. Him being a mercenary that has killed dozens of wolves just for the pleasure of killing. You can thank that to his asshole of a brother, though, who he also killed after he raped McCabe. Also in the pen, Abby was brought in who became McCabe's love.
Skip ahead and I was able to get free from the humans when McCabe came to get me after he was released. From there I went back and was reunited with my family, but was unfortunate in that Kate had already gone back to Jasper. Yet it seemed the universe was feeling generous as that same night, Kate sprinted the whole water from Jasper just to come and see me, hoping that I had made it out of the humans containment. It was that night that I proposed to her, wanting her to be my mate so I could love her for the rest of my life.
That's when thing went downhill. The next day when we were on our way back to Jasper, we met back up with Garth which was trying to get help from a pack that could save our pack. Unfortunately, they declined. Then, when he saw McCabe he freaked out because before he lost his memory McCabe attacked him and Lilly with orders to kill them, then to come after Kate and I and kill us. So he freaked out and took off and was chased by Abby, and I couldn't just let them run off so I went after the too. That's where most of his memory came back to him and he told us of who he was and how he ended up being the wolf that so many feared. Luckily, he didn't see himself as that anymore and is using his amnesia as a second chance.
He decided that it be best that he stayed behind and Abby stayed with him. I went back to Kate and Garth and we continued on our way to Jasper. The only thing is we didn't expect what we got back to. The West was in shambles as most of the wolves, both alphas and omegas, pups and adults, were killed leaving only a small fraction of the pack left. Both Kate's parents were killed, fortunately for her she still has her sister and her uncle. But with the pack torn apart there were some decisions that had to be made. At first, it was all arguing and the conversations got nowhere. Then I had an idea and proposed that we go down to Sawtooth and stay there. Everyone actually seemed fine with the idea and we were going to do that until a very unexpected guest arrived.
McCabe, being one of the most hated wolf in this pack, decided he should come and make a visit. He's lucky Garth and others didn't try to rip him apart. Though, it would have been interesting to see who would have won that fight. But once he explained his reasoning for coming, the others calmed down a little. He told us he'd take out the Gavin and Kane, the leaders of the East and South packs. It was an offer we couldn't refuse seeing as we had little to loose from it anyway. Plus I'm sure Tony and some others expected it to be a suicide mission for him so if one of the pack leaders didn't due he be our of the way from being a threat. I didn't see him as harmful anymore, but I can't try and tell anyone that because no one listens.
That was a month ago when McCabe said he'd take care of the tyrants of those packs and when we left Jasper coming to stay temporary, or at least that was supposed to be the plan. It's just that Sawtooth has really been a nice place to stay these past couple of weeks. It's beautiful, plenty of food to eat, no worries of other wolves trying to attack us; it's been real nice. Also, old Eastern and Western wolves have seemed to put aside the fact that they are from different packs and have come together to help build up this temporary pack. But I think theres a chance that this place may become more permanent than we first expected. There is honestly no reason for us to go back to Jasper. All that's there is a whole jumble of bad memories and dozens of dead wolves. It's just a mess up there and we have no guarantee safety with the south and the new East. It just doesn't make sense to go back there when everything is going so great over here.
Anyway, we don't even know if McCabe did what he said he would. Like I said it's been a month since we left and there is still no word back from him. So either he's dead or he's just decided to take the scenic route to Sawtooth.
More reasons why I actually want to stay here is because I've already started making good memories. First, I met family I thought was dead for years, then I got the love of my life, I proposed to her here, and a couple of weeks ago we finally made it official. We had our ceremony and became the first alpha and omega wolves of the east and west to legally marry each other. I'll never forget that day. It will live up to be the greatest day of my life for a long time. I'll always remember how beautiful Kate looked walking towards me, her sweet scent and the passionate kiss we shared to seal us together for all eternity. All of that was great, but the best part was that night when we made love with each other for the first time. Being that close and intimate with her has made me love her even more than I already did, and I thought that was impossible.
Funny enough from that night, we didn't realize what time of the year it was with everything going on. Kate actually ended up getting pregnant and I am going to be a father. It was quite the shocker to both of us considering we hadn't planned to be parents for a while, but we her happy none the less. I know how much Kate has always wanted pups and I was glad that they were going to be ours. That is also another reason why I didn't want to go back to Jasper. I was going to have to talk with Kate about this and talk her into staying here even if everyone heads back. I just think that it's the best thing that we can possibly do. I'd much rather raise my pups here rather in a place of war and death. I'm hoping Kate will think the same as me.
I was waiting in mine and Kate's den contemplating all this in my head as I was lying down staring out into the beautiful scenery. With Kate being put in charge by her father we were able to get one of the nicer dens that were available and didn't have to take a crappie one or build one. I was waiting for Kate to get back from Tony's weekly meetings that she had to attend. Luckily, they began early in the morning so she was usually back by the time I woke up. Unfortunately, I had woken up early and could get back to sleep which led me to reflect on everything that had happens to lead up to this point. It's crazy to think all of that happend in the span of only a couple months. And with everything that has happened, even with all the terrible things, I wouldn't want to change it one bit. I may be sounding selfish because I am. My whole life I've been waiting to be with the girl of my dreams even with everyone telling me it would never happen, saying it was impossible for an alpha and omega. Yet here I am with the greatest alpha of them all. Sometimes it doesn't even seem real, but it is and I wouldn't want to do anything that could change that.
My head popped up as I heard someone walking towards the den. My tail wagged excitedly as I expected to see Kate come walking in, but as the wolf, or should I say wolves, got closer I knew it wasn't her from their scents. Instead I was surprised to find McCabe and Abby walk into my den with bright smiles. My initial shock soon wore out and I got up and greeted the two with big hugs.
"Where have you guys been. You said you'd be right back; it's been weeks," I expressed. McCabe shrugged, as he did in most situations.
"I thought it would be better to stick around and see how things play out with the packs. As well as have some quality alone time with my mate," he smiled, leaning up against her and giving off a cheesy smile. Abby rolled her eyes and pushed him off.
"Yah, I finally convinced this mutt to come back here. Hasn't left my side since he got back from killing that southern leader wolf."
"So they are dead. What happened with the packs then?" I questioned.
"Things have calmed down for the most part. I haven't heard anymore talk about domination Jasper from either packs and there hasn't been any attempt on advancing anywhere. Mostly, they were all panicked are first, but eventually there were wolves who stepped into power. As far as I could tell they aren't as bad as Gavin and Kane, but it's only been a month and I can't be sure. As for the west, right now it's just a vacant spot of land that still reeks of death; but there's nothing stopping you from moving back."
"Actually, that won't be necessary," a familiar voice said from behind them. We all turned our heads to see Kate walking in. My eyes immediately were drawn to her belly as she was just barley starting to show signs of her pregnancy. Abby must have noticed too, because she gave a little squeal and ran over to Kate to congratulate her, then back over to me to give the same. McCabe was left in the dark so Abby had to enlighten him, and once he knew he had a goofy little smile and I knew exactly what was running through his head. Abby saw it too and smacked him upside the head.
"What won't be necessary?" I asked Kate, getting the conversation back on track.
"Moving back to Jasper won't be necessary. The meeting this morning was about weather or not we should go back. Everyone voted against it because Sawtooth has been a perfect place for us to start a new life. So we're staying here."
My eyes lit up and I started hopping around with glee. This was exactly what I wanted. To be able to stay here and live the rest of our lives happily and in peace without fearing about another pack attacking us. A place where Kate's and mine pups could run around and play without us being worried of them being pup napped. This was perfect. I brought Kate into a great big hug and gave her a kiss.
"I love you so much and I know we're going to be happy here for the rest of our lives." I turned to Abby and McCabe with Kate still in my embrace. "And I'd be happy if you two stay here with us. We are indebted to what you've done for us and I'm sure it would be fine if you stayed." The two looked at each other unsure about it. I understand why, there are still probably some wolves here who would die before they let him in. But I have a feeling if he stayed long enough, everyone would eventually warm up to him because he really is a nice guy.
"Well have to think about it, but not now. Abby and I were going to do some traveling before we settled down," he said. I nodded in understanding, I wasn't going to push this on him. But I had a feeling they'd come back eventually and take me up on the offer. As of now I was just so happy how in the end things turned out just fine. It's funny how desperately Kate wanted to get back to Jasper at first, and now we'll be staying here permanently.
We are no longer Jasper wolves, as weird as that sounds. But now we have a new place to call home where we'll make plenty of good memories. From now on we'll be known as Sawtooth Wolves.
Another story finished and put on the shelf. I really enjoyed writing this and had a great time reading all your comments and pms. I want to thank all of you for reading and reviewing and making this my most successful story yet. It has been a pleasure.
It may be a bit early to be saying this, but there is a chance in the future for this to get a sequel. I have a few ideas swimming in my head that I might do but I'm not sure. Pm or comment if a sequel is something you'd want me to do.
And I guess that's it for this. For the last time on this story
Peace Out
