Werewolf’s Heartsong

Chapter 31

Alora’s POV

Serenity is pulling me in the direction of her Jeep, the Twins and Darien not far behind, heading to his car parked only fifteen spots away in the same row as hers. I start thinking and then say to myself ‘I wonder what kind of music she likes’. This would be a good time to find out. I had eclectic music tastes, when the abuse got really bad I would listen to metal music, like In This Moment. I wonder if she would like that or something like Twenty One Pilots.

Maybe she listened to country music, that was a horror I didn’t want to imagine. I did not like Country music. It grated on my nerves, there were maybe a total of six songs I could

stand from that genre. I have learned to like some hip hop and rap, but not

a lot mostly Eminem, Logic and NF lately, the earlier works of Tech Nine. Most of my taste encompass all ranges of rock music, from the old, like Pat Benatar to the heaviest Metal, like Arch Enemy.

I was also into foreign rock, trap, dubstep and instrumental music. I would listen to symphonies every now and then. This made artist like Lacuna Coil and Within Temptation among my favorites. Then you sprinkle in Disturbed, Infected Rain, Chavelle, Granson, The Tech Thieves, AVIVA, Neoni, and a few others and you start getting a huge playlist rang. My YouTube Music could go on for days with as long as my liked list has gotten.

I remembered that her jeep had the top off. This made sense to me, most werewolves owned a convertible of some sort or a motorcycle, we loved having the wind in our face’s.

Although there was the occasional SUV like the Alpha’s, who still had a large sun roof he opened, but most had jeeps and bronco’s that had detachable tops. Or if not a convertible, the car always had a sunroof, that and the windows were always open.

Unless the weather was bad, that was the only time tops were reattached or put up, windows and sunroofs closed. I hated those times, they always made me feel claustrophobic. Darien knowing my preference and feelings on the matter, had always tried to keep the windows cracked a little, unless we were in a downpour or a blizzard. He would just turn up the heat if it was cold and tolerate the damp of the rain

Darien was really a great friend, he’s proven again and again why he’s my best friend. Serenity is bright like sunshine, her soul fairly radiates with

kindness, this makes me feel like they were a perfect match. They would be good to each other, and despite Dariens panic over the subject earlier, I believed they would make wonderful parents. I could imagine them with a dozen pups. And I would love being Aunty to every single one.

I smile, my heart warmed by the thought. Xena comments I would help teach the pups to hunt and defend themselves’ she tells me. “We will both teach them, and love them.” I tell her. Then a desire starts to form, one I tell Xena about. “And maybe someday, we will have pups of our own to play with theirs” That wish suddenly hitting me and making me sad at the same time.

It was a reminder that I was rejected. Although it was just this morning that it happened, it felt longer than that with all that’s happened this day. Goddess it was only three in the

afternoon and it felt like it should be three days from now. That’s how much has happened to me in this day, so many emotions and memories felt and relived. So many changes in such a short period of time. E

I was suddenly feeling exhausted, absolutely drained. But I couldn’t give in to the feeling yet, I had more to do, a confrontation with my family. I didn’t know how it would go down. I mean I was going to be arriving with the Alpha, Darien and three Enforcers who were now like family to me in such a short time. I didn’t think it would go over well.
