Elias POV

Lying in a heap on the floor and everything hurts, my ribs are probably broken again, my top lip and one of my eyes feel swollen. "Fuck," I whisper, using the cold ground to soothe the pain and reduce the swelling of my bruises.

Five ... four ... three ... two ... one.

"Oh my dear, what have they done to you this time." She swoons, entering my room like clockwork. I groan at her presence, I think I'd rather starve or endure another beating than have to deal with her craziness. I've just been beaten an inch from my life, I could do without the flirty, googly eyes of Pauline, trying to play good cop and nurse with me after.

"Fuck off," I whisper,

"What was that?" She asks, clearly not hearing me,

"Nothing," I sigh, not having the strength to talk or argue with her today. I hold back my growl as she kneels down beside me to lift my head up, helping me drink, I don't like it when she touches me, it makes my skin crawl. But as I accept the w

    Struggling to suppress the panic and worry in me as I can smell his blood wafting through the cracks in the door frame. He's been shot! He's hurt, injured! As I force myself to breathe and calm down, I eventually notice my hands are throbbing, stinging where the skin is broken, black and blue from the repeated impacts with the door. But I don't care, not even that I'm bleeding, I am just happy to be feeling something, happy in the knowledge that Elias is alive and we know each other are here. As the adrenaline starts to wear off, I can feel how much damage I have done to my hands. Inspecting them now as they drip with blood, the red aroma filtering up to my nose, filling my nostrils with the smell of my blood. Hu? It smells weird, different. Is that the crap Pauline pumped me full of still lingering in my system? No, the smell doesn't burn, it's more ... natural, like a ... hormone? Alarm bells sound off in my head as something clicks. 'You idiot!' I snap at myself, 'crap!

    I hear a voice, an angelic, sweet, soothing voice, whisper my name, "Elias... Elias," I open my eyes to see Chilli leaning over me. Her eyes are watery as though she was about to cry, but the rest of her face looks happy as she bores a huge smile."Chilli?" I croke, shock and delight fills me, "oh my goddess, Chilli!" I sit up and pull her into an embrace, squeezing her so tight she might pop, but she holds onto me unwanting to let go until she whispers, "ooo, watch the baby," with a giggle. I let go and hold her shoulders at arms length and look down to behold a baby bump, she's ... pregnant?! "Baby? Your pregnant!" I exclaim with pure joy and happiness, by the size of her, she is pretty far along and out of the danger zone. "Chilli, this is fantastic... arrah!" I cry as I try to move my leg, in all the excitement I forgot about the gun shot wound. Her eyes move to my leg along with her hands."Oh huni, let me fix that," she says softly, but I see no med

    Chilli POV Opening my eyes and I feel groggy like I'm a little drained of energy, 'strange,' I think to myself as I run my hand through my messy and knotted hair. "Ouch," I wince, untangling my fingers when suddenly my mind wakes up fully and I remember my dream. "Elias?" I whisper, looking down at my hands, the image of what they achieved replays in my mind's eye as a sense of relief washes over me as I know, somehow even though the dream was a dream, that I did indeed heal him, I can't explain how I know, but I do. This feeling of hope and joy warms me, giving me some comfort. As other parts of the dream playback in my mind, I remember something weird, "why was I so big and far along in the dream?" I ask myself whilst stroking my still relatively flat stomach, "I'm not even starting to show, why was I so big in the dream, I wonder?" But I don't get to wonder for long as the door to my room slowly creeps open and a shady-looking man, slivers in and the look he g

    As I'm forced into a new, different, larger room, with very little light, I struggle to see my surroundings as my eyes take a few moments to adjust. As I am pushed down onto the ground, I hear a growl from the other side of the vast space, a growl I recognise, it's followed by a bark as the men still have a hold of my wrists, "Get your fucking hands off my mate!" He snaps as the man's hands are replaced with shackles, my hands hit the floor from the surprising weight of them. The cold of the metal sends cold shivers up my spine as goosebumps form on my arms, making my hairs stand on ends."Elias!" I call out, now just able to make out his shape in the shadowy darkness."Chilli!" His voice rings out, followed by a metallic sound, clanging together, he must be chained up like me. Soon that sound is lost as a cackling laughter fills the air. Pauline. Pauline struts forward, appearing from nowhere laughing, be both growl and snarl at her from our opposite sid

    This is her plan, this is how she'll kill my baby still growing inside of me. If I shift whilst pregnant it will terminate the pregnancy. Cold sweat drips down my spine, I can't, even if I wanted to I can't, my body won't allow it, plus it's against our law and she knows that. Oh, now I get it, now I understand. Pauline's going to make me force my body to go against its natural instincts to not shift whilst in this condition. In me doing so, I'll kill my unborn baby and by the law of the moon and the packs we live in, Elias would have to reject me as his mate for it. Killing our own is one of the biggest sins, especially our cubs."But I can't," I exclaim, "it's not possible," I try to tell her."Find a way," she snaps as I look at Elias who shakes his head no at me. Seeing this in the corner of her eye, Pauline smacks him over the head with her hand, then coddles him,"It's okay my love, I'll fix and mend your heart after she's shattered it into tiny pieces, I

    As my bones continue to break and snap, my wrists easily slip from the restraints, I have no idea what she plans to do to me or with me once I have completed the change. But to be honest, I don't give a shit right now. Right now I am consumed by my anger and hatred for this stupid woman. 'You've made a huge, colossal mistake by making me shift!' I think to myself as more fur appears, covering my skin, my ratty, tattered dress falls away as my four paws hit the cold ground. My claws scratch along the uneven stone ground, as I lock eyes with Pauline, my only desire is to sink my canines into her soft flesh. Planting my paws, I growl a threatening growl at the woman who has forced me to ruin my life. A heartstring pings through the bond, as my eye suddenly shift and look at Elias, his eyes full of devastation as he looks upon my wolf form. I feel the hurt and disappointment smack into me like a bulldozer knocking the air from my lungs. 'I'm sorry,' I whisper to him as he looks awa

    Chilli POV My surroundings fall away as all my attention is on her! All I can think of is her, dead at my paws lying in a pool of blood. My body is numb, I am yet to feel the devastation of losing lil.... my ange... her. I know I can not let those thoughts and feelings in, not right now because if I did, I fear knowing deep down, it will break me, cripple me as I'd fall to pieces, so, for now, I close off all feelings and emotions regarding to ... it, and purely focus on killing the bitch cowering before me. With each step I get closer, the more I can smell her fear and panic as I ignore the nagging feeling in the back of my head that this could be a trap, that surely this evil woman would have some sort of plan, that this couldn't be it. But I don't care, I've lost everything, and my life is basically over, what do I have left to lose? I feel a screaming presence in my mind as if someone or thing is fighting for my attention, and the more I ignore it the louder it g

    The last bit of colour drains from her face as she loses the last leg she has to stand on. As if at last knowing her 'poor me' act isn't going to cut it this time, her personality switches as she pushes her own face into mine, changing tactics. Feeling her face in my fur, I bare my teeth angrily, far from pleased with the physical contact."Who do I think I am! Who the hell do you think you are to talk to me like this?" She snarls back, "I am your elder! I am above you! You are nothing compared to me! After everything I have done for you, and this is how you treat me? You ungrateful fucking bitch!" She spits as a burning smell fills my nostrils when Pauline suddenly cries out in pain, leaping back and away from me, clutching at her face. "Arrrah, my face, my fucking face!" She howls in agony and I can't help but smirk at her pain. "Stupid, fucking red wolves! Should have put you down like your fucking mother!" "What?" I stumble, losing balance for a brief second at her

    Elias POV I look up and watch as Chilli steps out from the en suite, wraped in just a towel, making her way towards her dressing table as I lay on our bed where I was just aimlessly flicking through my phone. Taking a seat and opening its draw, she removes a single, plastic pot housing her facial cream and unscrews its lid. It's nothing fancy, not expensive, its just a simple, none branded, vitamin E night cream.I continue to ovserve as she dips two fingers into the pale lotion and looks into the mirror, to then slowly drag said fingers down her face, starting at her forhead, gliding smoothly along her nose and then finishing with a dab on her chin. She then wipes a bit of the remainder on each cheek before replacing the lid and putting it back in its draw. My eyes are fixed to her as she slowly but firmly works the cream into her skin, taking extra care near and around her eyes. Her finger tips caress over her own face and down her neck, over my mark on her neck

    Chilli POV Perching under a tree with Chant as we take a break from sparring whislts our mates for some reason decide to chop some fire wood. I find it amusing and humble how as the alpha he likes and enjoys chopping fire wood for the pack house, no job is to small for our mighty leader.Chant's seductive eyes never leave her mate as he swings the axe up into the air, where it seems to pause for the briefest of seconds before falling down onto a chunk of wood, spilting it into two. The whole movement and process is magical, so smooth and artistic like poetry. I had watched my own mate for a time, admiring his tensing biceps with every swing, the beauty of his movements and strength of the action, but now I'm just leaning back against the tree's trunk with my eyes shut, listening to the beautiful rhythmic sound of the wood splitting, of metal against nature, somehow for some reason I find it peaceful as I smirk at the thought of Chant lustfully gazing at Jay, it al

    Elias POV That was brutal, oh my goddess do I hurt, I haven't hurt this much from training since, shit, I don't know when. Sure, I was mad and needed to work it off, but fuck me, Chilli was livid, she was masking it well, I mean, wow. My ass hurts. I had to use all my strength to stay on my feet, especially after I hit the ground hard the first few times of her kicking and taking me down. Once she swept my legs out from underneath me, my wolf instincts took over just so I could stay on my feet. I think I pulled something that time, thank the goddess for wolf healing, cos my left ass cheek and leg are killing me. With Chant now paired with Chilli and Erin and Leroy working together, that leaves me with Jay, who is as good as his mate, oh dear. I sigh inwardly as we step away from the others to train, I can spar and keep up with anyone, I'm alpha afterall, but after the beating I've just endured, I'd prefer a nice easy spar, but hay ho, lets do this. Thankfully, Jay see

    Chilli POV Finally everyone is out on the field, we can get started. I am needing to hit something. Elias insist on sparring with me first and to Erin's relief but Chant's dismay, I agree. Which just leaves the others to pair up, one of them did suggest mate paring but the guys seems a little bit wary so it's girls vs girls and guys vs guys. For now anyway. After a fairly rough spar with Elias, I finally start to calm down and release my rage, which I guess was his plan, so I don't feel gilty later now if I cause anyone else major harm. Clearly sensing this, Elias allows us to switch partners and Chant and I go straight to each other, to which the rest of the group chuckle at our predictableness. Chant and I exchange a sinister grin as the others repair up, Elais with Jay and Erin with Leroy. I mirror Chant as she raises her arms up into a defensive stance, declaring she is ready, a smile growing on her face. As we stare down on each other I am reminded of our rematch

    "You know there was no way he would accept and train with us," Leroy says once we are alone and with just our own pack members, "I know, but it was fun and satisfying to embarrass him like that, the look on his face at the mere thought of it was golden. To watch him squirm." I can't help but let out an enormous laugh, to which Chilli shoots me evil eyes for finding any of this so amusing. "What?" I chuckle at her before pulling myself together because if looks could kill. I had to laugh, if I didn't I think I would have lost it, plus it felt so good, too good to put Jordan down a bit like that in such a slight way in front of the others. However, by Chilli's facial expression, she does not agree, goddess, did I want to kill him, thankfully in a way he did say no, or we would have had a dead alpha on our hands and territory. "Come on, your telling me you didn't want a chance at hitting him?" I ask her in a teasing way, she looks at me whislt crossing her arms across he

    "I hear some incorrect information has reached the ears of my children," "Oh, and what's that got to do with us? Idle gossip is not what these meetings are for." "No, not normally, but," she pauses for the briefest of moments to adjust her tone and the ferocity of her words, "but when it comes to petty, stupid, horrible lies about my family, my children, then you and I have a problem! A big problem!" He nearly chuckles in her face as he asks half heartedly,"Pray tell what are these so called insults?""A spare heir, a baby," she lists off the tamer ones first, working up to the biggest and worst one, before she stops again as I feel a heat burning off of her directed straight at Jorden, "and an inbreed!" The room falls silent after everyone gasps and shoot death stares at the alpha. A low growl escapes from mine, Erin and Leroy throats, our protectiveness taking over. Jordan looks like he doesn't know weather to laugh or bite back."Jordan!" One of the ot

    Jordan holds his hands up in defence as I take a few deep breaths to calm myself before turning to the rest of the room to acknowledge our other guests. "Alpha Jonathan, Luna Suzie, beta Willow, sorry for my tardiness, how is Maxwell?" I ask taking my seat next to Elias, pushing my anger down for now, eyeing up Jordan in the cornor of my eye, I'm not done with you yet, I think to myself."No problem Luna Winters, father is doing well and thoroughly enjoying his retirement," he smiles with a nod of his head, which we return, "thank you for asking." Jonathan took over as alpha of the west pack two years ago with his mate Suzie and appointed Willow Steal as the first female beta of the west pack. She is a strong minded woman with a powerful right hook."Alpha Alex, Luna Ela and beta Karl, welcome and thank you for coming today," Elias smiles to the leaders of the Spring rise pack from the south, who joined our alliance about four years ago.With the greetings done and out of the way, we

    The drive to school is a pretty normal one, we talk, sing and laugh all the way there, forgetting about any and all problems the day may have already brought. Once there and out of the car, we all walk hand in hand with Marcus in the middle, through the blue painted gates."Luna," the teacher on the gate addresses me with a nod of the head, as does any other adult that comes into eye contact with me. I smile back and return their nods.Like always, even though we come to Lily's class room first, we walk Marcus around to his first at her insistence, she says its part of her job to look out for him to make sure herself she sees him to his door. It warms my heart the care and love they have for each other. As I kiss my son goodbye and he hugs his sister, I take note of the other high ranking children from other packs, sitting at their tables ready for the lessons to begin.
