My Pack's Killer (I'll be back for you)

      Cassandra 

"Hey wait there!"my heart pounded heavily against its cage with fear as I heard those words. I was running through the thick bush trying to hide from my uncle. He chased me with his men and I couldn't help the tears which streamed down my face. Is this how my life is going to end?

I increased my pace but I soon fell to the ground with my knees bleeding. I tried standing up but I couldn't, I couldn't help the tears that escaped my eyes. Soon I was surrounded by three grown-up mens who were glaring at me for making them run. 

“You have nowhere to go now young lady,” my uncle said as soon as he got to where I was, and I stared at him with a gloomy eyes. He had a smirk plastered on his face and he had no look of regret on his face, he was happy that all this happened. He was happy that things went as he wanted. I knew this was always his wish and he has fulfilled it.

 Tears gathered in my eyes as I stared at my pack which was now crumbled down to the ground, and with pain in my eyes I looked in the direction of those who did that. They all had a smile on their face as they stared at me, and it seemed like they all liked the way tears were dripping down my face endlessly. My heart swells with anger and all I could do was grit my teeth together while watching the killers of my parents and pack.

  It hurt to know that my parents and pack are no more, it hurt to watch my pack crumble down with fire burning through it. In the distance all I could see was the flame burning and the look on the doer’s face made me angry.

  After all they had done to my pack they still have the gut to make me watch all this, they make me angry. I regretted knowing him as my uncle. He had done the worst thing ever. He killed my parents now he is after me. What have I done to deserve this? I asked myself with my heart skipping in fear.   

  Now he had caused the death of the pack members and the worst aspect of it was that all this happened under his nose, he would have stopped it if he had heeded my advice but he didn’t. Now I had to live in grief for all my remaining lifes. 

 “I will make you pay, I will make you pay in ten folds for all the things that you have done” I shouted to the face of my uncle who had a sinister smile on his face. He had a sword placed to my neck and I didn’t shiver or feel scared but instead I was fueled with anger, my face was crouched into an angry one as I felt the cold blade of the sword pressed against my neck.

  I felt pains in my neck but I ignored it because I knew I'm at his mercy, and I knew there was nothing I could do to stop him because any wrong from me might cause my head.

 “I would love to see you try,” he said, pressing the tip of the sword into my neck, and blood spilled on the ground. I stared at my uncle with my eyes shimmering with tears as I couldn’t bring myself to know that he had done all this, he was nothing but a devil in human form. 

  He had played his role so well that no one suspected him but I did, and he knew about it. He had threatened me several times after knowing that I was feeling suspicious of him, and it’s all my dad’s fault. He was the one who told him I’m getting suspicious of him, and that only made him hate me more.

  My dad had never suspected that he would do such a thing, and that was because he had trusted him. My uncle’s pack was killed and he was the only survivor, and that was why he came to this pack. My dad being so naive accepted him in and he gave him the position to be the beta of his pack, and that was after the death of the former beta of the pack.

  “I will see you try, little niece,” he said in an annoying tone and I felt my anger swell. I knew there was nothing I could do for now because I was at loss. I’m still a kid and wouldn’t be able to do a thing to save myself from hum but that doesn’t stop me from growling at him angrily.

  The pain I felt in my neck was nothing compared to the one I felt in my heart, and I tried hard not to show him that I was scared or that I was in pain. He had an amused smile plastered on his face. I couldn't believe this was my once favorite uncle, he was my favorite and we got close but after a while I couldn't tell him anything because I knew he was up to something and I distanced myself from him but here I am trying not to break down in front of him.

  My dad had trusted him but he backstabbed him, and there was nothing I could do to that. He was a traitor and he deserved to be killed brutally like he had done to my parents and pack members. I knew there was nothing anybody could do to him and I had made up my mind to be the one to kill him. I knew I was too young for all this that I'm exposed to but I don't care, and it was now my wish robbe strong for me to be able to fight him.

 “Little niece, behave yourself. Soon we would found yourself in a new pack where you would be treated as a slave it’s more likely that I’m selling you out” my uncle said in an annoying tone and I sneered at him with pain in my eyes. One would easily know that I'm hurting inside, and I was filled with rage but there was nothing I could do as a kid.

 I made up my mind to avenge the death of my parents and pack even though I was still a kid, and that was what I would do. I will go at any length to get that done, and I know it's just a matter of time before I get my revenge on him.

 “You know this would have been prevented I’d your father doesn’t trust me over you. Your father would have fished me out if he had listened to me, and I must admit that you are good. You are damn intelligent but sadly that would go to waste, I’m sure the pack would do fine if I renovate it” he said with a pause and I stared at him. I knew that there was nothing I could do to avoid being sold out.

 There was no hint of guilt in his eyes as I stared deep into them like I could read through it but he I couldn’t. Tears gathered in my eyes as I watched him. He doesn’t feel any regret after all the things he has done. I couldn’t believe he was this evil, this isn’t the sweet loving uncle I knew.

 “I would be the alpha of this pack, and I would make sure I recruit all rogues and no one would be to stop that since I have a pack. Soon I would be the strongest alpha alive, '' he said, looking at me dreamingly, and I scoffed angrily at that. I knew there would be no peace if he eventually became the alpha of this pack, and to top it all he would recruit rogues into his pack just to make my father's pack the strongest.

  “That would be in your wildest dream,” I stated as I spat at him, and he stood up angrily slapping me. I could feel the sting of the slap on my face.

  “You don't have to tell me that, I felt hurt” he said feigning hurt as he put his hand on his chest in a dramatic way and I growled with anger wishing I could just punch him but I couldn't.

  I would have done that to him if I could stand up but I can't. I knew I could just punch his face but I knew that would be wrong. I wanted to punch his face and run away but I can't stand up to run so what's the purpose of running away when I don't get revenge on him.

 “Niece, you don't need to worry. You will be better off as a slave in the pack you would be sold to. You would be taken there today, and no one would change that. Your parents are gone so I'm in charge of you since you are my pack member. What do you think?” he said and I stared at him speechless as I couldn't believe everything he just said. It seems like he has everything planned out.

 I knew there is little I could do to save myself from him, and that was because I'm still a kid. What could a five years old kid do, and that's what I mean by I'm helpless. It hurt to see the person who killed my parents taunting me. I knew I was smarter than my age but I think that was because of me being from an alpha lineage.

  “Your gift would be used adequately well, you would be the slave so you should be useful to them” he said and I stayed quite as I shed tears. I knew my wailing was like music to his ears, and even if I plead with him till tomorrow to let me go he wouldn't.

 “The reason I wanted to sell you off is because I wanted to see what you would do to me, I wanted to kill you before and I ain't doing so anymore. I would see how you would get that done” he said with a sarcastic manner and I couldn't help but feel threatened by what he said. 

 He had already belittled me that I wouldn't be able to do a thing to him, and that was the reason he spared my life. I would make him pay dearly, and that is a promise.

  My eyes shot toward the pack which was burning and I let the tears which had gathered in my eyes flow freely. The ashes of the pack flew toward my direction and I smiled painfully knowing that they were all gone. I clenched my fist as I thought about my uncle getting free, he shouldn't be free after all what he had done to my pack and I would make sure of that.

 “We need to go now, you need to go to your new pack where you would work as a slave” my uncle said tauntingly, and j groaned angrily at that. He intentionally said that, he was taunting me and he wasn't ready to stop.

 Soon I was brought to my new pack, and I was handed over to my new alpha. I knew that I have to bear the torture knowing that soon a day would come that I would be free. It happened so fast that I didn't see this coming.

 I knew I had once warned my dad about my uncle but I didn't know that he would do something like this today. He killed my entire pack including my parents, and I was the only survivor which means I'm the only person who can from my pack who was alive. My uncle Gideon was the perfect definition of the devil, he had massacred an entire pack without feeling remorseful.

  “Help!!!” I shouted as I was being dragged on the floor by them hoping that I would be saved from them. I wanted to be free from them now. I wanted to be free from all this drama and I wish that a miracle would happen, and that someone would appear out of nowhere to save me.

  I knew what I hadn't wished for would never happen. I knew that there was no way a person would just pop out of nowhere to save me but that was still my wish. I breathed heavily as I struggled out of their grips but I couldn't because they were stronger than me.

 “Let her go this instant,” I heard a voice and you breathed a sigh of relief knowing that whosoever was the person was would save me from the hands of this monster who I called my uncle. I knew that the person was likely to help me and that was because he had said that they should let me go.

 I took a peep at my back as I struggled to free myself from them. I noticed that the voice looks like that of a young boy. I turned back completely while fighting through the grip of the men who held me firmly, and there I saw a cute young boy with chubby cheeks. I looked at the boy closely and I saw that he was just slightly taller than me. I noticed that he would be a few years older than me. I felt scared knowing that there was no way I would be able to get out of here.

  I could feel hot balls of tears rolling down my eyes as I stared at him. I knew that he might end up being killed after all this. I knew that he might not want to back down. He looks at them with no atom of fear in his eyes. “Look who we have here, can't believe a kid who I know can't stand up for himself wanting to save her from our wrath. I would love killing you,” I heard the voice of my annoying uncle which jolted me out of my thoughts. I knew that things would start to get worse.

 “Uncle, please don't hurt him. Please leave. You need to leave, you would only get hurt while trying” I said with a croak voice which seems more harsh than I thought. I can't believe that all this would have to happen someday. I felt bad about this knowing that a little boy would be beaten to a pulp because of me. I don't know why I bring bad luck to people.

 I was found at the pack's border of my father's pack, and I was taken in as his child. He nurtured me with so much care and love, the same also applied to his mate who was Luna of the pack. I have been trying to repay them back for their kindness not until my uncle came back and ruined everything.

  “You should stay alive for my sake and that of my mate, make sure you stay alive and avenge the death of this entire pack. I should have listened to you but it's too late. I knew that I had wronged you by not listening to you but I would want you to forgive me. I want you to stay alive. Take this as my parting gift from me, and remember that I love you so much and it's a sad thing that we would soon be apart” that was his last words and I promised to keep that, and he gave me a necklace which had some weird cravings all over it.

 “I won't leave until I save you from them, they are just cowards wanting to fight a kid. They should have attacked an able bodied man not kids. They are nothing but cowards,” he said and a gasp escaped my mouth. I can't believe that he would say something like that. I had wanted to tell him that he was not a coward but a cold hearted uncle who has the guts to kill his brother and sister-in-law coupled with the entire pack but it was too late. “Don’t you dare mutt, I killed her parents and her entire pack, it would be better if you leave now or you will have to face the consequences,” he said and I heard him gasp.

 I was praying that he should leave and let them take me also but I would be hurt with that. I knew what I had wished for is not right and I knew that either way he would leave. “What you just said won't stop me from leaving, and I would make sure I save her even if it means dieing,” he said and I felt the tears I have been holding since dropping down my eyes. I don't want this but there was no way that would happen now. I knew that they would kill him, and that was what I'm scared of. I don't want any bad thing to happen to him.

  I suddenly had an unknown connection with him within a minute. I had felt an unknown emotion twirling all around me. I felt like I had a duty to fulfill which was to make sure he was safe from the hands of my wicked uncle. I knew that he would do something bad to him which I don't want, and to make the matter worse I know that he would likely be killed by him.

  “Don’t hurt him,” I screamed on top of my voice hoping to change my uncle's voice. I felt scared knowing that things won't go well with all this. I knew that he would likely kill him since he has his hand on his neck which he uses to hold him up. I was scared as I stared at the scene in front. “Leave me alone, my dad won't spare you if anything happens to me” the boy said as he struggled to release himself from him but he didn't bulge.

 My uncle threw him away and I watched as he sailed in the air toward a tree. I close my eyes hoping that a miracle appears out of nowhere to save him. I opened my eyes only to him groaning in pain. I saw his body impaled on a tree which had entered his body. His body was impaled on a tree which was pointing at the sky. I watched as he sprouted blood out of his mouth weakly, and I turned to look at my uncle with a satisfied look plastered on his face. I looked at the boy and I saw him gasping for breath. I tried breaking out of their grips but it was clearly impossible. 

  I saw him breath his last breath and he fell to the floor and the wood ended up impaling on his body. The wood was now buried completely in his body. I knew I was the reason why he died because if he hadn't stood up for me then he would have been alive. I stared at his body which lay motionless on the floor with blood seeping out of her wound. Tears flowed freely from my eyes as I looked at his dead body while I was being taken away.
