White Hot Rage
Alexander was already over this battle. Specifically, I was over not fighting by my mate’s side. I spotted Fowler and tried to pop to him but nothing happened. I growled, “MOTHERFUCKER! EJ!” My older brother turned to me with a question clear in his eyes. I explained, “I can’t pop.”
Julian’s tight, angry voice agreed with me, “Neither can I.” I questioned, “Are you ok, Julian?” The bond answered me when my brother didn’t out loud. His mate was here. I followed my little brother’s gaze and snorted when I saw Melanie’s Demon friend staring back at him in wonder.
I said, “No fucking way.” EJ replied, “Clearly Melanie is the gateway to several people’s mates.” My mom assured us, “Guys, wewillget to both of them. I pulled your uncles here to join us.” A portal opened several feet behind us.
Uncle Bjourn and Uncle Marcus came through. I used my wind to throw people away from us. Uncle Bjourn snorted, “I see your mate is in the thick of all the fighting again, Alexander.” Julian growled, “With mine.” Uncle Bjourn followed his gaze and laughed, “Really? Well, your core family was missing a Demon in the mix. Maximus will be thrilled to have some fire throwing power join him.”
Dylan shouted, “I DISLIKE YOU SAINT GOD ALPHA PRICK! YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE IT ALL, DON’T YOU?! It’s not enough you have young Maximus. You’re all ‘I need a Demon in my DIRECT blood line.’ You JERK!”
My dad had already shifted into Thor who ignored Dylan’s jab. My dad’s wolf was ripping through rogues. Gage snorted, “Did Ezra really just declare his intent to kidnap and fake the death of our pack’s Luna?” I roared in anger as Phil said, “Hedefinitely did. No one cares about the burdens we shoulder to keep our Alpha calm, Gage.”
I linked EJ, “I WILL NOT watch my mate die, fake or otherwise.” EJ responded, “Neither will I.” EJ and I turned around simultaneously when Melanie ordered our Warriors to come out. EJ shouted, “WHAT?! They were here the whole time?!” Evidently.
Hundreds of our Warriors poured out surrounding the pack from the outside. My dad linked, “It’s a good strategy.” I snarled at the group that was charging up behind us, “ONE of you will explain how your Luna was injured and you all STOOD back there doing nothing.”
One of the Warriors shifted back; he barely managed to look me in the eye as he answered, “The Muffin Luna ordered us not to come out until she said to. She told us they come in waves and wanted us to surround them from the inside and out. The Muffin Luna took fifty Warriors inside with her. KJ, Cory, Fowler, and Chason insisted on going with her over the link we had about it.”
I growled, “I can see that because they are in there with her.” I shifted back into Oden. I linked Fowler, “Tell me you see that fucker sneaking up on her. He broke the rules of the challenge so take him down.” Melanie attacked said man seconds before they did.
I snarled and ripped through rogues in my way to get to her. Chason linked me, “This knife is dripping with wolfsbane.” I was about to order they hold him for me when Melanie said what he did to her. I linked them all, “You did a good job protecting my mated. Make these motherfuckers fear us. No one hurts her and gets away with it.” Fury hummed in my veins.
Melanie yelled out a warning right before shots began to ring out which had EJ throwing up his shield. He was getting much better, but he couldn't reach Melanie’s side of the field. Melaniewas off saving the world again, without me at her side. Oden grumbled, “I don’t care for that.” Neither did I.
A Warlock cast a spell that had Julian’s mate screaming in pain. Gage commented, “So, Warlock’s needs Beta’s or Gamma’s. I could’ve told that Warlock Melanie would kill him for hurting her friend.” Phil snorted, “He’s lucky she did since Julian would’ve done far worse.” Julian agreed, “I would have.”
Dylan shifted back to ask, “Can I just eat popcorn and watch MelAshley kill everyone? She kills people with dance moves, her thighs, and now this gem of snapping one’s neck with a rifle. I just love MelAshley so much. I must follow her and take notes.”
“You look away for one second and you could miss some cool new way to kill someone. Don’t y’all worry, I have talked to our Male lead Warrior in Blue Moon.” He whispered, “It’s my brother and we talk all the time.” I knew that.
Dylan continued, “Thigh killers are about to be commonplace among packs. I am naturally going to be the second thigh killer as I have been working on it. IT SHALL HAPPEN! I WILL become a killer thigh slasher like MelAshley.”
Julian linked me, “My mate and Paige are trying to find a Coven according to Melanie. Why can my mate shimmer, and I can’t pop?!” I replied, “I’m sure Paige will get that answer, little brother.” Because the only had was dark magic.
Ezra spoke disrespectfully to my mate which had me roaring while beginning to use my pushing power. Because if EJ could use his shield, I should be able to make people’s heads explode to get the HELL out of my way. It worked.
Dylan squealed, “YES!!!!! YOU GO ON WITH YOUR BAD SELF AND EXPLODE THEIR HEADS! Get them Moody Mini Exploding Heads Alpha Prick!!!! WE HAVE RELEASED THE WEREWOLF VERSION OF THE KRAKEN! SUCK IT ROGUES! You have no chance; we have the paralyzer thigh killer and the Wolf Kraken! Say your prayers, peasants!”
Dylan laughed to himself then added, “I really should just sit back and emcee this for us all, it would be worth it.” I froze when Tristan, Jason, Sam, and Drake growled in anger laced with pain. I turned to see they weren’t hurt so I followed their line of sight. Ezra had ripped Melanie’s shirt.
Oden and I growled in fury when we saw my mate had a whip mark on her back. If there was one, there was more. My family, along with the rest of our pack, was growling in anger. Melanie seemed momentarily stunned.
I could feel my mate’s embarrassment and shame shooting up from my foot. That pissed me off even more because Melanie had nothing to be ashamed of. I looked around noting the only person not surprised was Cayden.
I linked him, “You knew.” Cayden answered, “I’ve mostly seen what you are seeing right now. We had a video of a fight in Black Path. Mel got clawed in the back. So I’ve seen a little lower, but it’s more whip marks.” I snarled.
Oden told me, “I want them dead. I want them all whipped like she was! Mate feels shame and it wasn’t her fault!” I replied, “We will avenge what has happened to her, I promise.” I began to fight again. The rogues were practically done for, so we were getting to Ezra’s pack.
My mate's voice rang out and everyone stopped. EJ linked me, “I mean that’s just impressive. They all stopped fighting. Hell, so did we.” My older brother was right. EJ and I shifted back when she listed off things Ezra did.
I linked Oden, “What is his wolf saying?” Oden replied, “He’s drugged pretty heavily but he’s angry and ready to move onto his next human.” I linked my mom, “Ezra’s wolf needs help.” Mom replied, “I’m all the fuck over that.” Good.
Cayden killed the literal last rogue then came over to us. My siblings and I snapped clothes on those that shifted back. My dad growled, “Did she just say Ezra raped the she wolves inhis pack and sedated the men?! AFTER forcing them to mark a mate?! Dear god, someone tell me I’m hallucinating.”
Gage sighed, “I wish you were.” Phil added, “Sadly, you are not.” Dylan snorted, “Don’t you all remember the rules? If you’re hallucinating, you can’t talk to hallucinations. Actually YES! Let’s commit SGAP over there for talking to hallucinations. It’s only fair. Also is anyone else picking up on who Robert’s biological father is? Because I am.”
We all turned to him in astonishment. Tristan answered, “Yes, Dylan. We got it.” I looked dramatically over at Gage and Phil because I did not know. Dylan snorted, “Of course you did, Beta T. The Alpha bloods need to catch up to our Beta blood brilliance. No wonder MelAshley said Robert was like his father. It’s in the eyes. I am REMISS I never noticed. FOR SHAME on myself. FOR SHAME!”
