Chapter 177 Ambush.
Noelle POV
I’m going to keep on running with the patrol, I don’t care what my sister and her mate say or think, this is my home now, I’m a big part of this pack, and I count everyone of them as my family, they can’t just ask me to sit on the side and watch my friends, my family be hurt.
Running patrol isn’t the most dangerous part, back when we first joined this pack, the alpha would let me run the patrol to help with my anger, I still suffer just a little bit of my anger issues, I know I still have a long way ahead to become someone who’s fully not angry.
But I’m still an angry person, and running is helping, it’s a great coping mechanism that the alpha has pushed me toward, he reminds me of my own father, back before he died, he’d make me do a lot of physical activity, he’d have me deep cleaning for long hours, or cooking very intense recipes until my mind is off the anger, and I’m physically too tired to be angry anymore.
“Do you have to run?” Mia asks me, she looks heavier, she’s only five month pregnant but her stomach is getting huge, I didn’t dare to comment, I know a woman’s weight is a sensitive topic even while pregnant.
“I do, Mia, it helps me feel like me,” I say, and it also helps me feel closer to my dad, my real father, it’s what he used to tell me to do and how he’d react to my anger.
Please, be careful, Levent and Damian said it’s not safe out there says,
“Mimi, it’s very safe out there, you don’t have to worry. I have some badass wolves with me, along with four peace keepers at all time, why are you worried. Even Damian and Mariano are running along with us.” I say, trying to assure her that I’m not outside running all alone calling for the enemies to come and get me like she thinks she is
She’s always super protective but the pregnancy hormones made her worse, I know things about Mimi now that I didn’t understand back when I was young and first had both of my parents passing away, and then my older sister running me out of my old pack.
I know I was young, but I wasn’t that young, I could remember stuff, I know I saw mom do some things that she shouldn’t be doing.
By the age of ten I was sure she was cheating on dad, I was ready to face her with the truth, but her tears stopped me, and now years later, I knew she was forced to do it every single time. Dad was her mate, but he wouldn’t listen, he loved that pack, he loved his friends, and maybe if she did tell him, maybe he’d listen.
Mom’s personality is alot like Mia before she found her strength, she’s very submissive, she’ll bow her head every single time and let them do whatever they want with her. I’m so damn happy that Mia found her backbone and stopped bowing her head for them, instead, she’ll stand up and tell them to go fuck themselves right in their faces.
But that pack wasn’t a healthy pack, the looks I would’ve get even around my father who was turning a blind eye to it, I know he’s not an angel, he too was to blame for everything that happened to mom. And now they’re demanding us back, or maybe it’s just Mimi, the have the submissive wolf back, they want to crush her so they’d look

strong, but they seem to forget that I’m my father’s daughter, and I will not allow them to touch my sister, I’m not young anymore either, I’m a full adult, I’m a capable wolf.
Alpha Mariano said I have a young alpha inside of me, and that maybe one day I’ll have my own pack to run, and that made my wolf feel so damn proud, his testimony meant fucking lots to me, especially since I respect him and his leadership.
“Let’s go Ellie,” Jacob, my best friend in patrol called for me.
“Bye, Mimi,” I say, leaving her behind me, I shifted to my wolf form and joined the wolves for a run.
We started as usual, we ran over all of our borders, we had to make sure to keep our senses sharp, we could tell there’s a storm in the making, we could hear them, we could smell them, but they weren’t close enough for us to react. Especially with the peace keepers along with us, if they see us breaking the law and attacking outside of our borders, we’ll get in troubles.
Jacob nudged me, getting my attention back as I was so focused on that one stop, I swear I knew that wolf, but I couldn’t remember where and how.
I paid back to attention to the rest and kept on running, but that person in the back, that person… that wolf, it’s one of my father’s friend, a ruthless killer, and if he’s here, we should all stay on our toes.
I run forward to tell Ezra who was running with us, but before I could reach him or explain how bad things are, they attacked. They went straight to the kill, they were ruthless. These weren’t some paid mercenaries, these were wolves from my old pack, they we playing.
