Chapter 40 - Head

*****Alpha King's POV*****

"Alpha over here!" I hear one of my guards scream at the top of his lungs as I turn around to see a dirty coloured wolf growling lowly at my men surrounding her.

It was undoubtedly Silvia.

I immediately rush over to where the wolf was trapped amongst my men snarling and snapping her teeth- however my men weren't fazed by her at all knowing that she was greatly outnumbered.

Karson, Coda and Farah suddenly came hurdling out of nowhere from behind us- all of them seeming fairly unharmed...

"Shift!" I roar, once I reach the deranged she-wolf.

In return, all I get is a loud growl.

"FUCKING SHIFT OR I'LL HAVE YOU RIPPED APART BY EVERY WOLF HERE!" I bellow louder. I hate it when rogues disrespect my title...

But this doesn't seem to faze her as she still proceeds to growl back in response causing me to now shake with rage!

Very well...

I waste no time in shifting into my large wolf, growling loudly before I begin to cockily circle around her smaller frame.

Yes she was bigger than average... but nowhere near as big as me. She could drink all the blood in the world and I'd still kick the shit out of her.

I mind-link my guards to move aside but the second that they do, she wastes no time in pouncing on me, sinking her teeth into my shoulder causing me to growl thunderously...

We tackle one another across the field, until I of course win and wind up pinning her to the floor.

I rip my paw across her face, clawing the shit out of it whilst making sure to slash her eyes causing her to howl in pain as her wolf bleeds severely and loses it's sight.

I step away once she begins to whimper... I don't want her dead just yet.

"NOW FUCKING SHIFT!" I roar again.

She now decides to do what she's told...

Good... she's learning.

Once she shifts, I get to see first hand how bad I managed to cut up her face... it amused me.

Her eyes were swollen shut and gashed- blinding her. And the rest of her face was blood soaked with huge slashes.

"You have lied and caused my family and my fellow packs great discomfort and pain. You have gone against my laws by kidnapping and drinking the blood of your own species. You have planned to take over my kingdom and to kill members of the royal blood being myself and my daughter. You have raped and abused young boys and men for years on end and for all of that, your sentence will be death! You are a disgrace to our kind and I want you gone!" I roar, everyone silent as she growls lowly in amongst her whimpers.

"Coda!" I suddenly shout, watching as Coda's wolf shifts as he walks over to us- now towering over her weak frame lying before us on the floor.

"End her." I grit out, causing Coda's smirk to widen.

He deserved to end her more than anyone else here. After all she tortured him the most.

This kid was ballsy... it was starting to grow on me and if he hadn't have kidnapped my daughter then I would actually admit that I kinda liked him.

"No sweet heart! Coda please! I've... I've always loved you! It was Warren! He was the one that was in charge of all of this! Please... come on baby I saved you from your fathers abuse remember...we can look for your mother I know where she is! Please believe me!" I listen intently as Silvia rambles in a frenzy to keep her life.

Like that would happen...

But what does she mean by she saved Coda from his fathers abuse... and that they can find his mother? Where had his mother gone?

I watch as Coda's eyes burn with anger. His full demeanour changing with her words...

This kid had to be an Alpha blood. It's settled.

The size of his wolf and the bad temper to match it... it was settled... but then what Alpha does that make his father? I know them all and I wasn't aware that any of them had a missing son?

"You never fucking saved me! You destroyed me more than I already was! You made my life worse by filling me with false hope! I'll make sure that you don't ever get to refer to my mother again do you hear me! You've sexually and physically abused every male in that hell hole for years and it ends today! Your a worthless old hag and you're going to die for your sins you fucking coward!" Coda roars, everyone gasping slightly at how much authority he naturally reeked...

If I wasn't their Alpha and King then every wolf here would have bowed to him in respect just from his tone of voice... something only an Alpha can force wolves to do...

"Coda... baby please... your stupid little mate won't please you like I can..."

And with that, he lunged at her, pulling at her head roughly with his bare hands as she screamed in agony trying to thrash at him to release her...

A ripping sound was heard causing most men here to wince until Coda stood back up slowly, breathing heavily whilst holding her head in his bare hands- now detached from Silvia's body.

This kid was strong. Maybe nearly as strong as Karson and I...

Even I stood before him with my mouth hung open in shock. He just beheaded her with his bare hands in his human form...

Kid has skills.

"Dad..." I hear a cry, causing me to whip round faster than I ever have before.

"Maddison!" I yell, running to her before she has the chance to disappear again.

My baby. She's safe. She's alive. She's back!

"I missed you so much Maddison! We all did! Your mother will be so happy to see you! I'm so sorry I didn't find you sooner! But you're safe now! We can go home!" I ramble, my eyes watering on their own accord as she grips me tighter than ever.

"I love you Dad! I missed you so much!" She sobs into my chest as I crush her to me protectively.

"The protection spell has been broken! You can all now see the hidden land! I want the full place searched and I want every rogue captured and taken back for trial!" Karson steps up, knowing that I'm in no fit state to give orders as everyone listens to him like they would me.

Maddison pulls away after a long hug which hurts my heart slightly since I've only just got her back. She smiles up at me, unable to stop crying before turning to Karson and hugging him tight.

"You smell like a rogue." She comments, as he laughs and hugs her tight.

"Had to turn myself into one to save your ass." He retorts, as she laughs causing me to smile at my kids being reunited.

She releases Karson before turning around to find Coda, soaked in blood and holding a small pup wolf in his arms?

"That's Seth." She comments softly as Coda smiles at her as she approaches him.

His body language softens completely as Maddison approaches him with a gentle smile... I can't deny now that they must be mates.

"Is he a runt?" I question, as the pups eyes now focus on me in fear.

He must be scared that I'll hurt him or something.

"Yeah he only shifted about an hour ago." Maddison says, taking the small Seth from Coda.

"Your Mother will love him." I smile softly, watching as the small wolf relaxes at my comment.

"I told you we'd get out if it's the last thing I'd do." Coda tells her cockily as she laughs.

"Thanks for helping my Dad." She hugs him as he breathes in her sent.

"Anything for my mate." He comments, as she looks content.

I can't deny them of being together. I won't. I get why Coda did what he did but I'll still need to have a good old talk... maybe a warning... with him before things progress.

"You reek of blood though..." Maddison comments, causing us all to laugh at her statement.

"Yeah let's head back. Your mother will be worried sick." I say, as she nods and we all begin to walk.

My guards had taken Silvia's body back and we were planning on burning her remains in a festival to celebrate her death.

You could say that the festival is a sick and unnecessary idea but I think otherwise.

"I can't wait to see my mother and Adam." Maddison smiles as we all walk together.

We finally have her back... my family can relax now... though I still want to know what Coda's story is? I have a few unanswered questions to get to the bottom of...
