JadeI looked at Conan who had an indifferent look on his face.“Didn’t you two hear me?!” the human said to his feet brandishing a local sword. “I said give me your money or…”“We heard you the first time,” Conan sighed. “You’re giving me a headache with your screams.”The man laughed while looking at his men who did the same.“I like this guy,” said the man. “You think you can come into these parts and not pay my tax?”“Do you work for the government?” I asked.“I am the government around these parts!”I nodded to Conan. “He’s not the government.”“No he’s not,” said the werewolf.“Enough with this nonsense,” the man said pointing to us. “Kill them and let’s use their heads as skulls.”“We don’t want any trouble,” I heard my own voice come out in a lighter tone than I had intended. “Just let us go and no one gets hurt.”They all laughed again pointing to me.“You want to hurt us?” the leader laughed. “Look around you sweetheart. This isn’t the palace or candy land. You’re in the all
Jade“I support you,” he said. “You really should leave. I don’t like him being around you.”“He’s a jerk.”“I’ve asked you this many times but haven’t gotten a reply. What plan do you have in place to take him out? We need a good one.”Before a solution could be brought up, his phone rang which was from the alpha.“Speak of the devil,” he said, walking away to take the call.I stood in my stead looking around the fields with my arms crossed. “He wants us back,” he said when he was done with the call.“What do you mean?”“Something happened in the pack.”“So…”“He knows you’re with me.”“How?”“He’s the alpha, you don’t expect us to be in the pack together and not be spied upon. Let’s get back so we’d be done with whatever he wants and be on our way out of there.”I nodded.Our drive back home was silent as expected. I dreaded going back to see his face. Why did the kindpaper have to be so cruel?There were other things he could have asked me to do instead of going back to Brad.That
ConanJust as I reached the mountain side, I dug my claws into it, stopping our momentum.A ledge stood a few meters away from us, it was large enough to hold two people but no more. I could drop her there and go to rescue the others.Another explosion was heard causing me to know that we were under attack.“Are you okay?” I asked her while climbing up the side of the mountain to the ledge. I dropped her there and jumped off the ledge heading to the ice below.Quick on my calculation, I knew from this height, I would crack through the ice. I looked to the side of the mountain while descending. Extending my claws, I slowed my fall by sticking my claws into the mountain, before I got to the ice, I pushed myself forward, zipping through the broken ice.Some of the wolves had trouble swimming since they were latched onto the heavy equipment they had on.More and more explosions were heard and I found these to be from the soldiers. They were being shot by something.Tracing the sources of
ConanWe set up camp and waited to be attacked by the rogues. Fires were built inside the tents and those who had been in the icy water were inside taking in the heat.I on the other hand stayed with Jade in a different tent as she watched the fire burn.She had woken from the explosion with a mild headache and I was glad that was all. Her healing factor had kicked in already which had saved her from succumbing to her injuries.“You seem worried,” she smiled.“That’s because we are stuck in the middle of nowhere and I have seen so many of our people die,” I responded. “I watched a man get trapped within the ice. Before I could break the ice, there was an explosion and it killed him instantly.”“What are you going to do when you find the rogues?”“Rip out their throats and toss them to the polar bears in this region.”“Or we could give them a benefit of the doubt and…”“I am not a peacemaker. I never was and I will never be one. If you had died I would have lost it. They shot an explos
Conan“I suggest we go round the back,” I said pointing to the sloppy side of the ice. “We would use our speed to run…”“Sorry to cut you off,” V interrupted. “But we are dust wolves. This is ice. We can’t run at full speed without slipping. They would use this to their advantage.”“Do you have a better idea?”“We should stop running and walk to the mountain. We would save our speed and strength and catch their weapons which we can see in slow motion. That was what I did and I saved my people. Not all of them but I saved the ones I could save.”I nodded. He was right, even though I did not agree with his opinion. This would make us very easy targets. We could be picked off like chickens. Their snipers could use guns with faster bullets against us.“You seem to disagree,” he noted.“I’m not a fan of getting shot,” I said. “We do have wolfsbane bombs which we can use on them.”“I doubt they know what that is. This is ice, and they have been here for years. I’m sure their bodies have cr
Conan“Kill them all,” I said to the other wolves.We zipped into the wolves, killing them without holding back. Some we threw over the mountain to face the wrath of the soldiers who ripped them to shreds with bullets.It smelled like gunpowder while we fought. The floor was riddled with bullets of different sizes and shapes.Ten minutes passed by and we were still fighting the rogues.More and more rogues were climbing the mountain to help their fellow wolves.Their numbers increased with their strength. “Don’t give up!” I yelled, bashing the skull of a rogue open before using his body as a weapon against some of the other enemies.The rage I felt was nothing like I had ever felt before.I was prepared to destroy this entire civilization. They had shot against my people with explosives without asking us for reasons why we were in their space.This was war. While we fought, I no
JadeI watched the man get out from his prison under the fallen ice and mountain rubble.His body had wounds all over them but his healing factor soon kicked in. He walked to us with his white hair stained with blood and the scar on his cheek not healing. That was a permanent scar which I guessed had been caused by wolfsbane.“Are you being serious right now?” I asked, struggling under the strength of the big bearded man. “Conan is still up there with that huge wolf and you guys can’t do anything. He’s going to die.”“He knows what he signed up for,” sighed the white haired man. “We’ve tried to get past those wolves up there but it’s almost like they don’t get tired of replicating in numbers. There are so many of them.”I looked around to see he was right. I could count at least a thousand of these creatures that were dead. Looking up the side of the mountains, I saw many of them climbing back up to join their pack.“I’m going to
ConanStaring into the mountains that the main pack was situated in gave me the creeps. It was stretching for miles on end with no protection from the cold or the blizzards.It was a desert. Going with the entire pack in this kind of place was scary to say the least. I took in deep breaths as I was ready to handle this but my body was too weak to do so.I had almost died back there. Using my powers to free myself had weakened me. All that rage and anger had dissipated into the wind after seeing her, but on a normal day I would have used it to smash into the crowd, killing everyone in my way.If we were going to be in that pack before the next blizzard arrived, I would like us to start it on time. That meant that I would not get to rest and recharge but we would start heading into the pack to get back the lost scientists.“What are you thinking about?” Jade asked, interrupting my train of thought.“I don’t know,” I sigh
ConanI had won the fight between Brad and I. The fight which had spanned over years and decades and finally came up victorious.He returned to his human self as I did the same. I looked around to see the grounds which had been broken and filled with blood and machines.“All of this just to take me down,” I chuckled as he slowly healed and sat up, but he was too tired to do anything.“Don’t flatter yourself,” he coughed up a tooth. “It was for an entire country.”“And yet I took down your entire army single-handedly.”He growled at me. “Who are you? What kind of monster are you?”“The monster that you created, Brad!” I yelled in anger. “I used to have a home, a family, a mother and a father who loved me. I used to have a brother I thought was my better half but he turned out to be a monster.”Suddenly he got the hint of what I was saying as his eyes widened. “Yes Brad, we are both siblings. You were supposed to be my brother, my friend and the one who would watch my back. Instead you
ConanI stared at the robots before me that had halted, before looking at Brad, Trina and a strange lady in a snowy pack uniform.She had to be the one controlling these beasts.She stepped forward with a devious smile on her face.“You were the one who put my sister in a body bag,” she laughed. “You beat her so much she could not survive, so she succumbed to her wounds. That was my younger sister. I am going to make sure these machines deal so much damage to you, you wouldn’t even feel your jaw by the time they dislocate your body parts with punches.”I yawned. “You show up at my doorstep intending to have a war with me. I think we should start this war before arguing over who is stronger and who is not.”She laughed. “A feisty man I see. Very well. Let’s see how feisty you will be by the time they are done with you.”She pushed a button as the robots all turned to me.I counted at least twenty robots. The last
JadeI had not seen this coming. Now I knew we were really screwed. Conan has struggled against one of these creatures before being jumped by multiple. None of us could stand against this creature. It was too powerful for us to fight. We had to run out of here and give up the pack.“What is that thing?” a general gasped with the other warriors on the field watching this strange creature walk towards us.It seemed to have a few minor upgrades. Its arms were now made of iron, it wasn’t seven or eight foot tall like the last time. It had a sleek design but this was made to rival alpha’s and I was sure all of these new designs made it lighter and faster.“We need to get back to the pack and get everyone to safety,” I noted. “If we stay here we are going to die and lose everything. We need to get the people in the pack to safety first.”But the generals were still fascinated by what they were seeing.“General!
Jade“Good luck,” she hugged me. “And make sure you don’t die or I will kill you myself.”I wasn’t going to argue with her on how ridiculous that was but instead I would leave her to her thoughts.I headed out with the generals and the elders all wearing their armors.Our army had gone ahead of us to halt them ahead of time before they would get into the pack. If they got in, it was over. They would destroy our pack and kill our civilians too.We had nowhere to run or hide, this pack was all we had going for us.“So… have we sent word to our allies?” I asked while we rode in the battle van to the battlefield.“No one responded so it’s either they haven’t seen the message yet or they don’t want help. Either way we are on our own,” an elder responded.That was a strange thing. Every alpha was supposed to respond to a distress call from another alpha. It was an unwritten rule, unless the two packs had a silent war going on between them.We got to the field and I found how deadly it was.
Brad“That’s because you might be extremely cheap with the way you were banging her throughout. But you should know this,” she threatened. “The next time you sleep with someone else is the day I leave you for someone better and take all my forces with me. Do you hear me?”I could easily push her away but Trina had one of the best land forces who could fight even dangerous rogues without breaking a sweat and I needed them by my side. I had no choice but to accept her decision.“Yes,” I said. A knock came on the door as I opened it to find a maid there.“What is it?” I asked.“There is a call for you on line three.”I slammed the door on her face, zipping to take up the call.“Hello,” I said.“Conan is out of the game,” the voice said. “He’s been in a coma in the hospital for days now. I don’t think he’s going to make it out alive.”This gave me hope for my invasion. With Conan out of the equation, I would kill off his pack without difficulty. He was the greatest asset his pack had.*
Brad“Well,” I smiled, spreading my arms. “There goes my element of surprise.”“Oh please,” she stood up, zipping to stand before me. “I wasn’t expecting anyone to show up.”She brought her face too close to mine and her cold breath hit my hot face. The tension between us climbed to greater heights before she grabbed my hand and zipped me to a room where I tore her clothes and she removed mine.I was inside her within minutes while she moaned and we broke the bed with our combined force.When we were done, we laid in the mess we had created, fascinated by each other's strengths.“Does your wife give you sex the way I give you?” she smirked naughtily which had me kissing her breast before sitting up.“She’s not to be in this conversation,” I said. I hated having intimate discussions with those I slept with. They were not to know about my immediate family. That was something I should keep away from us. “I see you don’t want to talk about her. Very well then, why are you in my pack?“I c
BradI paced around the bedroom, wondering why my men weren’t picking up their calls.“Do you think they panicked and chewed the pill?” Trina asked.“That’s their own business.”“You held their wives and children captive and told them to track and take back your children or you would kill them. They could take the pill just to save their children.”I didn’t care about the dead. What I wanted now was a way to get back my children. If that was not going to be possible then there was only one thing to do. I would have to get back to the snow pack and make an alliance with them. I was sure they would want to know who had almost killed their queen.“I’ll be back,” I said, leaving her in the room as I headed for the garage to get into my car and drive off.The desert wolves were about to learn the meaning of what surrender looked like.I would first take back my back from the hands of my conquerors and then tear down their packs. After that, I would head for Conan’s pack and kill him and J
JadeShe cleaned a tear which fell off her eye, trailing a line down to her cheek.This must have been a very painful experience for her but I was still wondering why she was telling me this story.“I left him and headed out of town to come here,” she sighed. “The last time I checked on him, he was married to a fellow werewolf with four children and leading his pack as a warrior and the most feared one in his pack. I have wondered over the years if maybe if I had stayed with him, would I have brought him peace or agony?”“The only way to have known anything about that would have been you trying to get back with him and working your differences,” I smiled, now knowing what she was bringing the story for.“Exactly,” she smiled. “Now that’s the same thing for you and Conan. Instead of leaving him where he is in the hospital and running off in the model of the night like I did, not knowing if you were meant for him or not, you can work out your differences with him. “I recently found out
JadeI told her everything about what had happened and throughout my entire story, she didn’t interrupt me or say anything that distracted me.She was the only human friend I had made who actually listened to me. She was different from most of the people I had met.Even werewolves were not as good as she was. When I was done, she smiled at me, dragging me in for a hug while placing my head on her shoulder.“I’m very sure he wouldn’t listen to my pleas,” I sighed. “He probably hates me right now. I’m sure of it.”“No he doesn’t,” she sighed. “You have to talk to someone to know their true intentions.”“I don’t know about that. I’m sure he hates me. I betrayed him, Helena. I brought him to his knees. That’s not how a mate should behave. I should help him and not destroy him. I destroyed him.”My voice cracked while I let her go, standing to my feet to pace around the room.“And do you want to know the worst part of all of this?” I asked as she shook her head. “It’s the part where when
