**Vintage POV ( Valenzano Wolf): **
“Don't fucking move Cleopatra”, I ordered.
“But...I can kill some rogues”, she said with a pout.
“Do not engage. Protect yourself and the pups. Our warriors will be here shortly”, I said.
These bastards have got to have a death wish coming here like this. I will show them I will show them all why I am the most feared Alpha there is. I howled alerting West and the warrior they are needed. I need Cleopatra and my pups protected so I can kill these bastards. Cleopatra looks aggravated as fuck right now all my mate wanted to do was eat. Whoever is on parole tonight better be dead or I will kill them. I heard more growls and see West, dad, and some other warriors run towards us.
"Cleopatra stay here don't fucking move", I ordered her.
"Okay, make it quick please", she said annoyed. I lick her face and stomach.
Once the coast is clear I ran out of the igloo and started to fight. The first rouge I encountered I killed. I ripped his fucking heart out. While I am fighting I see dad and August join in.Dad hasn't lost his fighting skills in his retirement. He just ripped two rouges' heads off at the same time. August on the other hand is ripping throats out. We all looked around and see the rogues dead. I look up at Cleopatra and see a rogue holding a knife to her stomach. It is the same rogue that said her pickles were nasty. Now I am pissed off, I was about to run to her when the sound of paws hitting the ground is heard. There are ten more rogues running towards us.
"WE ARE UNDER ATTACK TAKE NO PRISONERS EVERYONE DIES!", I say without taking my eyes off Cleopatra.
"No, this asshole is going to taske my pickles before he dies", she said.
"Seriously?? You are worried about pickles while i gave a knife to your stomach", the rogue said in shock.
"You are going to eat your words asshole", said to the rogue as I inch forward.
"Don't even think about it Alpha or I will give your pretty Luna a C-section", he said with a smirk.
Cleopatra is showing no emotions. But I can feel them, and she is pissed off and scared for our pups. As we are fighting, I noticed the rogue is taking Cleopatra through a hole in the igloo. He handed her to another rogue. Once they are out, I start running to them. Cleopatra trips and falls on her stomach and I see red. As I catch up to them, what I saw shocked me. Cleopatra turns on her back and takes the two steak knives she has been holding is slits the wolf's throat.
She then pushes him off her and gets on top of him and starts stabbing his heart. When I get to her she is holding his heart in her hand and she howls. I picked her up bridal style kissed her forehead and kissed her stomach. When I turned around all the rogues were dead beside the unfortunate one that will be eating picckles. And my pack was bowing to their Luna. I carried Cleopatra to our room where the pack doctor was waiting.
"Luna are you hurt anywhere?", the doctor asked.
"No, I am just really pissed off I have no idea where this rage is coming from",s he said while listening to the pup's heartbeats. We both watched as her stomach moved.
"Doctor why is her stomach moving like that?", I asked pointing to her stomach.
"Alpha if you please put your hand on her stomach", I did what the doctor asked, and the movement stopped.
"That Alpha.... Luna is our future Alpha protecting his sisters. The rage you feel is a mixture of yours and the little Alpha", the doctor said to me.
"Doctor I just watched my mate kill a rogue who was in wolf form and cut his heart out and howled. Then made all my been bow to her how is that possible?", I asked confused.
"Well, Alpha being pregnant is like having a parasite. Babies can take away the energy or give you some extra it all depends on them actually. It seems like little Alpha felt both your and Lunas' emotions and decide to take action. Self-preservation does not start when born it starts in the womb, he will be a great Alpha", the doctor said.
"Doc, did you just call my babies parasites", Cleopatra asked ready to pounce on him.
"Calm down baby I am sure he will explain himself", I say as I rub her stomach.
The doctor explained she I've been so tired why she became so violent. It wasn't her it was our pup acting through her. He said the cherry on top is the fact my mother was marked while I was in her womb which kind of makes the pups stronger. She still had blood on her I washed her and put her to bed. Another fucking problem on my list, on top of finding out who spiked the drinks at the baby shower, now I have to find the leader of these rouges coming on my land. It's clear now that Cleopatra is the target.
"That asshole that called my food nasty he better still be alive Vintage", she said.
"He is love", I said. I made sure he was the only one to live.
“Good take me to him now”, she said with determination.
“Cleopatra, don’t you want to clean up first?”, I asked.
“No, if I do, I will get tired. He is going to eat those pickles. The nerve of that asshole saying my food is nasty.
On our way to the back yard. We stopped in the kitchen. Cleopatra grabbed a huge jar of garlic pickles, chocolate syrup, peanut butter, and some caramel sauce. Of course, she made me carry everything. Outside is August, dad, Jazz, and mom. August frowned when he was what I was carrying.
“Is there any reason why he is still alive?”, dad asked.
“Yes, he said my pickles are nasty. So, I am going to prove him wrong”, Cleopatra said as I set the food items on the table.
“There is no fucking way I am eating that. You mind as well kill me”, the rogue said.
“What is your name?”, Cleopatra asked cutting up a pickle.
“Paris”, he said.
“Ok, well Paris you called a pregnant person food nasty. And I am going to prove you wrong”, Cleopatra said.
“Wait so you are not mad that he threatened to give you a c-section?”, August asked.
“Nope, because I know my family and pack will never let that happen”, she said.
“Damn straight”, Dad said.
“Alpha, whatever you want to know I will tell you. Please don’t force me eat that please”, Paris said pleading.
“Nope, we all took that loss. You picked the wrong pack buddy”, Jazz said.
“I am a fair Luna. And I will never force my will on anyone. So, I tell you what, answer the questions my mate have for you honestly. Lie and I will shove this in your mouth”, she said waving a pickle in his face. He looks scared. More scared of the pickles than of me.
“Well, you have a choice. Torture or the pickles”, I said.
“Torture...I will take the torture”, Paris said wanting to be tortured than eat the pickles.
“Nope, you will eat these pickles and the words you said to me”, Cleopatra said.
We watched in horror as Cleopatra put the pieces of pickles in a bowl. She took a big scoop of peanut butter and dropped it on the pickles. Next, she took both the caramel and chocolate syrup, and poured a large amount in the bowl.
“First question Paris. Who sent you?”, Cleopatra asked.
“First question Paris. Who sent you?”, Cleopatra asked.
“No one”, his first lie. If I was him, I would spill all the beans. The who, the what, the where, the why. All of it. I would have fold like a pretzel to not have to eat that shit.
Cleopatra smiled and nodded to me and August. August held Paris down while I forcefully opened his mouth. Cleopatra walked to him and shoved a pickle slice in his mouth as he struggled. I have never known anyone to use food as torture. The moment the pickle was in his mouth he tried to spit it out. But no, I covered his mouth with my hand leaving him no choice but to chew and swallow.
“See Paris, I told you it is good”, Cleopatra said smiling. Then she digs her finger in the bowel and eats one of the pickles.
“Paris, I am sure the person you are protecting is not worth it
“Hush August before I give you one”, she said to him causing him to whine.
“Okay, please no more. Our Alpha is obsessed with this pack and its ruling class. We have ordered to sneak in and kill the Luna”, he said.
“What the name of your Alpha?’, I asked.
“Nope I am asking the questions here. Paris what is your Alpha name?”, she asked.
“Alpha A”, Paris said.
“Thats all?”, all she asked.
Paris explained that only the Alph second in command knew the Alpha real name. And that when they are recruited they only meet the second in command not the Alpha. Who the hell blindly follows a person they never meet. We asked more questions and he answered.
“So, Paris where is this camp located?”, Cleopatra asked. I noticed he hesitated.
“Dude you been doing good. Answer the question or you get a pickle”, Jazz said.
Paris said he can’t tell. He said he won’t put everyone at risk. That is understandable but he got some pickles coming. Honestly Cleopatra ate more pickles than she gave him. It is time to end him. So, she shoved a pickle in his mouth.
“Okay, Paris unfortunately you threatened my pup so you can't live. But I hope you enjoyed your last meal”, Cleopatra said.
Before I could register what was going to happen Cleopatra took out a knife. And stabbed Paris in the heart. It was quick and easy. I just got extremely hard. I took her back to the house, washed her and made sweet love to my brave Luna. Valenzano and I are so proud of her.
