Chapter The Hurt
She got to the border just in time too. The mutt was about to attack one of her young. She snarled and jumped at the mutt, had two knives in her hand, and got on them inside the mutt’s back. Near his heart and his spine, which caused him to go limp. “Princess?”. It was Liz. One of the new ones to the clan and four younger ones. By the way, they were dressed that all five were of the noble class, but what were they doing near the border?
She was the only human that was put on wings and survived. “Why is he on our land?”. She said as she looked behind them and saw the female wolf. She wanted to know why they were protecting her as she asked them. “Why are you protecting the female wolf?”. She said as she looked at the she-wolf. “I am with a child, and I was walking around the pack greenhouse when the rouge suddenly came towards me. But the greenhouse isn’t about two hours away from here.”.
She looked at the wolf in shock since she ran to her broader and walked through the rough river water to reach their broader. The female wolf was willing to die for the safety of her youngling. “We did not know about the rouge either.”. They told her as she looked back at the pups when they told her. “She warned us about the rouge, and when she got closer, we saw that she was with child, and we protected her.”. Looking closely, she did see a slight bump. “May I?”. She asked because winged babies are not highly active tell the third trimester. “Sure.”. She said so happily.
“Your pups asked me a while ago, and they told me about how your babies aren’t active till the third trimester?”. She said, walking forward, grabbing her hand and putting it on her bump. “He will move right about now.”. She told her as she put her hand on her back and waited for her baby to move so that she could feel it.
“How do you know it is a boy?”. She asked her. When she felt the baby kick, she gasped as she laughed. They looked at each other as the she-wolf smiled at her and said to her. “A mother always knows.”. She told her. “My name is Lina. Second in command of Luna’s court.”. She said the winged that saved the pups and her.
The slight movement that she felt was so overwhelming. She smiled as she felt movement. She looked up at her and was about to say her name. “Princess! The mutt!”. Screamed Liz. They grabbed the female wolf and put her behind them once again. She turned around and saw the mutt was still on the ground. She was confused since she saw the mutt on the floor. “What do you mean there is no one here?”.
She walked near the body that was dead. Her brother told her that the mutts return to human form when they die. “He is just a youngling.”. She said back to them. They still looked protective of her. Their wings held high, forming a shield around her. “He is dead, trust me.”. She looked down at the ground and saw a vast ass shadow behind her. She was even more protective now of her younglings and the pregnant wolf. “Get her up the tree!”. She screamed just in time to see four more mutts behind the big fellow.
The big fellow grabbed her by the legs, dragged her to the forest, and dug his claws into her right leg. She screamed. She might be winged, but fuck, that hurt. We are not like our cousins, the vampires. We do feel everything. She tried to return her wings, but the big fellow got them with their teeth and yanked.
She heard a crack, and she let out another scream. Her friends were like family to her, so whatever she felt, they would feel. Just as this happened, five males fell to the ground just as they heard screams echoing in the forest. She looked up and saw the other mutts trying to climb the tree. She felt its teeth on her thigh. She screamed and screamed.
They were near the dead, so she grabbed one of the knives the dead had and stabbed the mutt on the shoulder since this son of a bitch is intelligent. She heard a gunshot and saw one of the four mutts go down the tree. She knew it was her brother as she felt the pain getting worse, which caused the mutt that was biting her to get mad.
Dead. The mutt had left her thigh and went for her wings again, taking one of her wings with him. She has lost blood that she did not feel. The mutts’ teeth sunk deeper. “Let her go. Or I will shoot you next mutt.”. She heard her brother say to them. “Ed! Turn back. Your brother would be pissed if you get reshot and if we do not take your sister-in-law back, plus Geo is still alive.”. She looked at the pups as they fought for the she-wolf since one of the other wolves grabbed her. As she said something to them as she went down the tree. As she looked at her, she screamed.
Teeth and claws were taken out of her body, and a felt hand was on her shoulder, and she stupidly put a knife through Adan. “Fuck, you still got it.”. He spoke as he took off the knife from his shoulder. She looked at them as she told. “I’m sorry that I took my anger on you.”. She said as she wanted to cry as he looked at them and said. “We are all here, so don’t worry about that.”. She smiled as she knew that she had her friend back. We do heal faster but not with the way she was maltreated.
Out came Dt from the forest. “Give me one reason why I should not shoot you.”. Was the last thing she heard before everything turned black? She asked herself as the trees were about to tell her something. Her brothers were about to attack the wolves, as he said. “Go back to your land, and don’t cross the border again.”. As he saw the water, he said it told him about the she-wolf, who was screaming at the wolves.
On their way back, he didn’t understand why his wolf was mad at him. He knew he had no right to get angry, but he would speak with the person, his daughter, and his son about what not to do once they married. So what happened with their mother and him won’t happen to them. He didn’t want his son to lose his wife, and he didn’t want his daughter to lose her husband.
She screamed as she woke up when they had just gotten her home. She cried as they tried to put her on her bed. Of how many times she would fall when she was younger, she already had a bed for herself. She clawed at the people who were there trying to help her. She opened her wounds even more as she was crying.
Her brother pushed thru the people as he saw she was acting. He knew that she was anxious. He went to her as he screamed for the people to move so that he could be closer to them and she could feel him. She cried even more, when she tried to go on her stomach as she felt her back on fire. She felt a hand interlock with hers.
At first, she was scared and about to pull her hand away when she felt her brother’s nail protectors. He knelt to her height and held her hand as he tried not to cry with his sister. Closing his eyes as he couldn’t see her like that. Her sreames hurt him more than a dagger to the heart. She looked at her brother as she felt the bones on her backbones being rearranged again.
She doesn’t remember getting to their med bay, but somehow here she was. All she remembered was the blood. She felt the pain and Adan’s face after the world went black. She looked at him as she grabbed his hand harder and groaned as she tried her hardest not to scream again.
She then heard him say that he would kill the one that this to her as she told him. “You can’t kill the person if he is to be my future husband.”. She said as she looked at him held his hand tighter as she bit her lip trying not to scream or cry. She looked at him once again and said. “You have to promise me that.”. She inhaled as the last bone cracked back in place. She held onto his hand and cried as her brother patted her head.
He was going to rub her back and wings as he used to when they were younger, but he stopped. She looked at him with tears, knowing she would not be the same after this. “You don’t know if the asshole who did this to you is your future husband.”. He said as he felt her hand grips his tighter as she looked at him and held in her scream.
She looked at him, and with pain in her voice, she told him. “Promise me that you will not kill him whatsoever.”. She said to her older brother as she looked at him. As she puts her forehead on his, as he does the same, he inhales as he says.
“I promise.”. His voice sounded like a child’s when he felt her hand slowly lose its grip as he saw his sleeping younger sister. As he cries as he knows that this will break her when she wakes up. He just wanted to stay with his sister so that she could feel safe. She feels safer with him around than with her father. He has to go to the wolves due to his father making him go for the sake of something since he didn’t listen to his father.
His father told him that he would have to go ahead of his sister to ensure everything was placed ahead of time for him and her. And the fact that his sister had to heal in their homeland to heal appropriately. But all he thought was that his father couldn’t wait to get rid of them faster. How wrong he was.
