Chapter 61

“What is that?” the alpha shouts out. Before anyone could reach I had the alpha by the neck against the house. Allister on my shoulder growled along with me. “hey, hey, Ashley calm down. Allister calm down. We all know he's not a "that". The alpha will apologize won't you Adam?” Rhett coos at me. I can sense he's close but not touching me. Smart. The alpha nods slowly. Letting him go I step back. “young lady KnightFlame I do apologize for the insult I meant no harm. I have just never seen it. Uhh uh uh….” looking to Rhett for help who stays silent. I give a sharp nod. With Allister here, the magic just comes even faster. Reaching up I run my fingers over his fist-sized head. Even though he's gotten bigger he is still just as light.

“shall we go speak in the office with fewer ears and eyes?” the alpha said tugging on his shirt and stepping to the side to make room for us to walk through the door. Allister's tail wraps around my neck as he settles on my shoulder. “he can stick that apology up his furry ass.” Allister huffs in my head. Biting my cheek to stop from laughing. “stop that silly boy I can laugh now. I think this overconfident alpha has a speck of respect for me now.” “Okay, ill try but he made me mad he talks to you like you are beneath him. Bet if you put him in his place and showed him who the stronger alpha is than..” “okay okay I get it. And no I am not stronger he's the second born of alpha so he already was alpha born now he's an alpha. I was born to a housemaid and a warrior. First in my line to be an alpha.” “yes but you are part fae fairy and a royal at that. And you are mated to the future dragon lord. You are not a simple she-wolf you are stronger than him. Only another royal would even come close to you now.” he huffs out. “you know the stones become the royal pack right?” “what? really? that loser is a royal wolf. Pffft. don’t think so AL.” giving me things to think about as we walk into the house.

Fading memories of running through these halls bring tears to my eyes. I don’t want to lose what we worked so hard on. We barely hit the landing when calls of rogues are filling the halls as she-wolves and pups head to the kitchen where the door downstairs is. One of the warriors tried to grab my arm to take me to the lower levels. “release me” I order he had no choice but to do as I said I am an alpha. “helps your the mate to the next leader of the clans” Allister chuckled in my head. Sending him an image of me flicking him off my shoulder sobered him up fast. “ma'am come this way I will help you to safety.” growling at him he shrinks back “I don’t think she much likes that idea.” Rhett barks out. Slinging his arm over my shoulder. Shrugging him off I head for the door. Just then remembered I have no clue where they are at. “where to alpha?” a little annoyed I didn’t have a link with them here. I only have a link with Rhett and Allister. “I don’t know if it's such a good idea you could get hurt and then what would the young lord do for an heir?”

“adopt like my fathers did that's what he will fucking do now where to alpha” I sneer out. When he points to the south I shift and shoot off to the southern border. My big silver wolf was a blur flying through the woods I learned to be a wolf in. No one knows these woods better than I do. Coming face to face with my worst fear the scent of the Greene's locks me in place. Falling on my face in fear. The scent of the dirty floor under my nose was wet with my blood as I lay there. Kane kicked me in my stomach until I stop making a noise. He says it's training for after he makes me his Luna. It's so I know my place and make sure I give him an heir first thing. Tells how he will rip every she-wolf from my stomach until he has his heir then he will let me create a beta mate. His laughter leaves scars on my soul as he enjoys hurting me. Then his sick friend comes in with new vials to be tested as I am now old enough to conceive a child it's time to make sure I can only give Kane males until otherwise decided. Not wanting to sully the mate bond he will create his friend will be doing the honors of testing the fertility drugs he's been working on.

“See I told you it was a bad idea to let a she-wolf fight. She froze in fear I can smell it from the house.” a grumpy wolf says coming up behind me. When he reached for me all I could see was Kane reaching for me flinching in fear trying to hold my whimpers in. “stop! dont touch her. Adam this is not fear of the fight trust me she's not afraid to his a man this is I don’t know, send for a healer a female one I can feel how terrified she is of males right now even me. And her wolf is to the bond should override it but her fear, and pain are so strong it feels like it's mine. Like it's happening for the first time.” I hear Rhett's booming voice something in it stopping the sounds of fighting nearby. I have to hand it to the alpha I can hear his mean handling the rouges fast and easy. I look up in time to see the alpha's eyes glaze over and fear work its way over his face before he shifts and sprints back to the pack house. All the wolves in the shadow pack start screaming out in pain as the rogues start sounding rabid.

“what the----”
