“Well we are planning on such a thing, however not before we get a little something for our selves.” Chuckling, his teeth were a yellow tint. Must be a lifer as for as cigarette are concerned. His brother was still silent, but had a very creepy feel about him. Stepping forward, the larger of the two came at me. Punching out in no particular manor. This was the skills of most men these days, without training they were more like wild pigs.

    Blocking his punch, only to send one my way. He took me by surprise when he caught it, and pulled me to the ground. Sitting over my stomach, as his face got close to mine. His breath smelling of fowl death and left over tobacco.
    “I’m going to enjoy this” Licking my cheek.

Oh that’s just nasty, and I just had a bath too. Grabbing my breath through the tee, feeling me up. So glad I didn’t eat yet. Having a hard time getting to my lower half, while he sat on me. His brother tapped him on the shoulder.
    “What?” Glaring at him. The brother just pointed, down stream. Looking up a pack of wolves making its way to us.

Ohh just perfect, this couldn’t get any better.

    “Get off me, you dick head” Pushing my hips upward, knocking him off. Getting to my feet, the wolves already feet from us. A few were in human form, and looking like a damn buffet.
    “What’s going on here?” Growling at us. His eyes hit me, and a smile formed. My arm was forcefully grabbed as the smelly bastard, held me.
    “We want to trade” Glaring at the wolf. The one who spoke, which I’m guessing is in charge, growled at him.

    “For what?” It doesn’t make any sense to me, wolves could easily kill these two morons in a second. Why give them anything.
    “Food and winter clothes.” His grip tightened, making me want to chew his hand off.
    “Fine” The wolf barked, waving to his men. Pushing me towards the wolves, I hit ones front. Looking up, he didn’t look fazed in the least. Over hearing the wolf in charge, made me want to laugh.

    “Lousy male humans, they’d sell their unborn female child if they could make it another day.” Grinning, I decided they couldn’t be that bad.
    “Hey, your in charge right?” Direction my question to the over sized wolf. His eyes snapped to me, a little shook that I spoke.
    “Yes” Giving me a soft smile.
    “I got a better idea” Stepping away from the wolf who I hit. His eye brow rose, tilting his head at me.

    “I’ll come with you, as peaceful as a sleeping kitten. If” Grinning widely. He folded his arms.
    “If what?” Stepping to the side of him. Pointing to the bastard who tried to have his way with me.
    “If I can have a piece of him” glaring at the man. The wolfs eyes moved down the length of my arm and followed the point. Laughing hardly he turned back.
    “A piece you shall have” Sticking his hand out, for me to do as I pleased.
    “An people say your heartless” Chuckling. His smile widened, at my playfulness.
    “HEY DICK HEAD YOUR ASS IS MINE” The mans eyes widened, seeing me step away from the wolves.

    “Come to dance princess?” Leaving the items with his brother.
    “No but your gunna” Flipping my bow out and pulling two arrows from the quiver. Shooting one at his feet, then another. Making him hope around like an idiot. Charging bringing my body high into the air, only to bring my foot crashing on him. Flipping the bow around, lopping him upside the head. A few

“Ohhhhh” and “Damn” were coming from the pack.

    “Stupid asshole” Leaving his crumpled body on the floor. Walking past his brother, who looked on. I caught sight of an apple and smiled. Grabbing it, cleaning the surface on my shirt. Taking the first bite, made my mouth water. Long time since I’ve apple. Stepping to the wolf, he laughed.
    “Not bad little one” Crunching on my apple, I swallowed a piece.
    “Oh yea, that was nothing.” Shrugging it off. Taking another bite.
    “So where we going now?” turning the apple to get more.

    “Were going back to base” He said, moving closer to me. Sniffing me he frowned for a second.
    “Sorry, buddy keep looking” Surprise crossed his face, till a grin came back.   
    “Know about that do you?” Leading the way for us to get walking.
    “Yea” Tossing the core into the river, watching it float further down. A few other males stepped up and sniffed me.

    “Okay this is getting old. Here just get it out of your system.” Standing still. The leader laughed, nodding to his men. One after another smelled me. None were my mate.
    “Well looks like your someone else‘s.” He said, draping an arm over my shoulder.
    “Aww whatever…hey got anymore apples?” Turning my head around. A wolf in the back was holding onto a sack.
    “Jerry give the girl an apple” He said without looking around. The man caring the sack tossed me another apple.

    “Thanks Jerry” Holding the apple up. Cleaning it with my shirt again.
    “When’s the last time you ate?” Eyeing me.
    “Umm had beef last night” biting down. Giving me a funny look he, frowned.
    “Where’d you get beef?”
    “Killed a cow” Turning the apple.
    “It wouldn’t of been a cow in the eastern side of the city, would it?” Turning my eyes up, I nodded. Taking another bite, then tossing the core, watching yet another sad empty apple drift away.
    “Oh boy”

    “What?” Licking my fingers.
    “So you’re the one who’s been killing livestock with the bow”
    “Yup, girls gotta eat”
    “You do release who’s livestock you’ve been killing right?”
    “Nope, just figured they were left over from the war”
    “No darling, you’ve been killing are Alpha’s livestock.”
    “Ohh well sorry” Shrugging. He turned around to look at the rest of the wolves who were swallowing.

    “Dear, maybe you don’t know a whole lot. We have to bring you to him. He’s been levied calling the killer the sniper.” Busting out into a fit of laughter.
    “Cool I have a nickname now.” Sticking my hand out. “Sniper…strikes again. Terrorizing livestock everywhere.” Chuckling I went on.
    “Lock up your sheep” A chuckle from behind me, had me looking to see Jerry was the culprit. The wolf walking next to me, just shook his head.
    “Your interesting that’s for sure.”
    “Life’s to boring not to be”

    “How old are you?” Laying one eyes on mine.
    “How rude, woman never revile their ages” Chuckling as I stick my nose into the air, as if it was the worst question ever.
    “Forgive me, my lady. Its just you don’t look older then 21.”
    “I’m about that, not sure.”
    “Oh why’s that?”
    “Umm been about,” Counting my fingers. “ seven years or so.” Turning fully to me, looking all over my body.

    “You have been roaming the area for seven years?” He gulped. “By yourself?”
    “Not for the whole seven, I had a year or so with my dad.” Nodding he looked away, and the walk became eerie for a while.
    “What happened to him?” Finally asking the question, I’m sure all of them wanted to know.
    “He died protecting me”
    “Did…did we…”
    “No it wasn’t your kind that killed him.” He let out a low growl, thinking of the same kind killing for a female.

    “You don’t seem to crazy about human males trading females. Why is that?”
    “Because one should protect what they have so little of.” Huffing.
    “One might call you a hypocrite”  Snarling at my comment, he flashed his eyes at me.
    “How so” Giving me a warning to be careful. But I wasn’t scared.
    “Because here you are getting pissed off because males are handing over what your clearly looking for. And your all pissy because they want something in return.” scoffing, his face softened at my words.
    “Its not right for them not to fight for their mates”
    “Well that s.o.b was not my mate.”

“But he was…”
    “Trying to rape me”  The whole pack started to low growl, while stopping. Leaving me to stop and turn around.
    “HE WAS WHAT!” Growling and making me take a step back. Damn talk about flipping a light switch.
    “Chill, damn. Your hot tempered, all of you” Laughing as a pack of wolves looked like hell hounds.
    “How can you laugh?” Glaring at me.
    “Because he didn’t get much more then a boob feel. Besides, I would of killed him had he gotten more.” Walking to Jerry, looking in the sack he put down on the ground. At my slow walk through the pack, they slowly quieted down.

    “Ohh a peach” Greedily taking it. Taking a bite, the juice dripped down my chin. Licking my lips, I was so happy right now. Turning around the leader watched me walk back up next to him.
    “Good now?” Cocking my head to him.
    “Your different that’s for sure”
    “Different is good, to many things that are the same get forgotten” Walking on, my foot caught on a rock causing me to fall. The male quickly reaches out and catches me, but my peach falls to the ground.
    “Aww peach” Pouting my lips. Lifting me back up, I pick the peach up.

“Please tell me your not going to eat that now?”
    “Not till I wash it off” Walking to the river, cleaning the dirt off.
    “We would of given you another one” Walking on.
    “And waste perfectly good food, ha.” Shaking my head, after taking a bite.
    “Yup your defiantly different” Chuckling.
    “I know, so do they talk to?” Pointing my thumb behind me.
    “Yes they speak”
    “Do they do tricks to” Laughing. A few low growls at my low joke.
    “Ohh pipe down, it was just a joke. Like you haven’t heard worse” Scoffing at them.
    “She has a point”

    “So what’s your name?” Looking at the leader.
    “Vince” This made me laugh.
    “What’s so funny?” Vince asked.
    “Nothing its just a dashing name for a wolf” using a British voice.
    “Are you making fun of my name?” Raising an eye.
    “Oh never” Shaking my head.

Walking for what felt like the better part of the day, we finally made it to the what Vince called base. It was a beautiful area with large houses. A few woman looked at me, and all I saw was pity. Frowning, I didn’t like that look. I could get myself out of this, but I was curious about what the big deal was. The woman here looked well clothed and feed good food. A few males walked up and started sniffing me.

    “Oh this is going to annoy the shit out of me” Huffing while looking over at Vince.
    “Sorry, nothing I can do about it.” folding his arms over his already buff chest. Another ten or so took a turn, at my smell. Tapping my foot, I was growing tired off all this.
    “Okay I’m bored Vince, lets move it along” Waving my hands.
    “Alright, come on. We need to bring you to the Alpha anyways.” Sighing he seemed more worried then me. Walking threw the nicely kept houses, we walked up a long winding path. Heading to the largest house of all. I swear it was a damn mansion. Two very large guards blocked the way in.
    “State your purpose” One said, eyeing me.

    “We found the Sniper” Vince said. The second guard glared at him.
    “Are you implying this woman is the legendary sniper?” Growling.
    “Oh damn Vince you didn’t tell me I was famous” Grinning.
    “Quiet woman” The first snapped at me, getting to close for comfort.
    “Hey, back off poodle” Glaring at him.
    “Your behavior will be punished” Going to reach for me. Vince and the rest stood there as, I side stepped swinging my arm out. Using the palm of my hand, getting him in the throat. Gasping for air, he dropped to his knees.
    “There is that good enough of a Sniper performance?” Huffing I turned to the second. Faking a step to him, he took one back.

“Vince!” Folding my arms.
    “Oh right” Opening the door, we all walked in.
The house was decorated in art from all over, looking more like a museum then a home. A grand piano sat off to the left while a spinning staircase, twisted to the unknown of the top floor.
    “This way my lady” Vince said, holding out his hand.

    “Aww Vincy your so sweet” Giggling like a moron. Chuckling at my comment. Walking down the long hallway, till we came to a set of double doors, with gold handles. Knocking Vince waited, he must of heard something. Cause I didn’t hear shit. Pushing the doors open, I was looking right at the most stunning man I had ever laid eyes on. I would of called him tall dark and handsome, had he been standing. However he was sitting at a large desk, able to fit at least four of him. Dark hair, either a very dark brown or black. His eyes were looking down while he was writing something, so I had no clue what color they were. A well build frame under, what looked like a dark blue button up shirt.

    Vince and the pack stood silently waiting for what I’m guessing was him to speak first. Looking at them, I saw that their eyes were looking anywhere, but at the Alpha. I had remember reading something about this. Never look into an Alpha’s eyes, or any wolf for that matter. Something about it being a threat, hell what kind of threat was I. Mentally laughing, which caused me to smile. Vince looked over at me, giving me the ‘be quiet look’
