About two hours later it was morning and Adam was just beginning to rise.  He suddenly felt a rush of pain.  He looked around and saw that he was back at the cabin in their room.  But when he looked down, he saw that Red wasn’t curled up beside him clinging onto him like a little baby. 

He began to grow worried.

He shot up but recoiled in immense pain and saw that he had been bandaged up and stitched in some areas.  He slowly got up and limped out of the room calling for Red.  Since he couldn’t remember anything last night, he was worried that the cult had attacked them, found their cabin and took Red.  He called for her one last time when he saw a limp figure lying across the sofa.

He limped up towards the figure and saw that it was Red.

She was curled up in a tight ball, her arms clung tightly around her cloak as if it was her only warm comforter, she had scars all over her body and she was barely breathing.

“Red, Red wake up, darling wake up!” Red moaned quietly and gently fluttered her eyes open and said hoarsely.

“Adam?”

“Oh, oh thank God darling, you’re okay.” He hugged her but Red winced in pain making Adam’s undead heart clench as he gently released her apologizing in ramble.

“I’m so sorry darling, what happened to you? How did you get like this?”

“Adam please!” Red snapped suddenly.  Adam remained silent then said calmly.

“Red what happened to you? What happened to us?”

“You don’t remember anything from last night, do you?” Her tone was dead serious as if she knew exactly why Adam couldn’t remember.  Adam shook his head and begged to her to tell him what happened and why she was hurt.

Red took a deep breath and explained solemnly and nervously.

“Last night, Adam you—you were…..”

“Red please, tell me what happened?”  Red took a shaky breath and continued.

“You lost control Adam, and you wanted to kill so you…. You made it to the village Northeast of this cabin.” 

Adam was horrified.

He was afraid that he had killed the entire village and now the cult would find him and kill not only him but Red possibly now that she was with him.

“Oh my God—did….did I-”

“No, I managed to stop you but….. We fought long and hard, until I…..”

Adam slowly put two and two together and his face turned horrified and he placed his hand over his mouth horrified.

“Oh God…. You mean I—I did…..” Red nodded and continued.

“And umm….I did-” she gestured to all of him and she turned away and covered her face with her cloak shamefully.

“This is all my fault! I knew we shouldn’t have done it that way, I knew this would happen!”  Red sobbed out.  Adam looked down at his little girl and took her hand and begged to her.

“Red, I’m so sorry, but you have to believe me I tried so hard to regain control but after I turned I just….”

“Adam don’t apologize,” she now looked at him deeply in the eye with not just sadness but anger for herself.  “I know it wasn’t you, I could clearly see that you weren’t in there and I believe you, its just….. I know the Wolf is hard to control, I—I tried to help you but when you went to that village I-I had no choice but to….”

Adam held her close to him but as gently as he could without causing her more pain as he shushed her rambling.

“No Red, don’t be so hard on yourself. You did what you had to do; if you hadn’t then the village would’ve been nothing but a bloodbath by now, you did what was necessary to stop me. And for that I am grateful,” he gently stroked over her body faintly worried that even the slightest touch would cause her to cringe in pain.

“I just cant believe I did this to you,” he gently and slowly picked Red up from the couch who was moaning and grunting in pain as Adam picked her up and carried her to their room.  He gently and carefully set her down on the bed and got out the bandages and began to heal her.

“Where does it hurt the most?”

“My back, mostly. You uhh—kinda took me by my neck and threw me into some logs and trees, and I think I might’ve hit a boulder as well” Red growled softly as Adam dabbed the alcohol on her side where Adam bit her. 

Once he was done healing her wounds, he took her hand and gently stroked the top of it from her wrist down to her knuckles softly and said to her.

“You know there’s a saying that says, ‘when the pupil disobeys, the teacher must discipline’ and I can clearly tell I deserved it”.  Red softly chuckled as Adam cracked a soft smile and chuckled along with her.  “Red, if anyone’s to blame it’s me. I didn’t try hard enough and I almost got you and everyone in that village killed”.  Red looked at him with sympathy and took his hand that was stroking her knuckles and held onto it tightly.

“There could be a way to make sure your Wolf knows whose in charge”.

“What is it?”

“My mother told me, when an Alpha is chosen and marks her pack, she shows them whose in charge by showing pure dominance over the other wolves that dare defile her.  She must stand tall and bare all her glory above her property and never let them think they can overpower her, maybe we can try that.  Our two wolves showing dominance over one another until one of us is the Alpha over the Omega”.

“You think it could work?”

“It’s the only way, we’ll just have to find out and see”.  Red shifted uncomfortably and grunted in pain, panting heavily.  Adam gently placed his hand underneath her back and gently chanted an ancient, foreign spell and Red suddenly felt a tingly sensation all over her back.

It then became cool and it soon faded away into numbness.  Red looked up at him and questioned.

“How did—”

“I’ve learned a spell or two from the ancients during my time with the cult, how does it feel now?” Red squirmed a bit and told him.

“A bit stiff, but otherwise—okay”.  Adam smiled softly and kissed her forehead gingerly.

“Sleep Red, you’ll need to make sure your at least able to walk by tonight if you want to help me again”.  She nodded and soon snuggled into the bed moaning tiredly and soon fell asleep.

Adam stroked her hair softly looking down at how brave and strong his little girl truly was.  Taking on an enraged newborn werewolf just to protect an entire village.  He was inspired and he couldn’t be more happier or prouder of his little Red for doing what was right.

Even if it meant it was him causing the problems.

Later that night, Red now stood underneath the full moon and transformed into a Wolf while Adam still suffered through the pain of the transformation.  He had to learn to control the Wolf tonight, because only then could the pain stop and he could transform freely and willingly underneath the Full moon.  After a long agonizing session, Adam was once again in his wolf form staring at Red snarling at her.

She then knew it was time to show this Wolf pup who’s in charge here.

She slowly stalked towards Adam baring her fangs at him growling and licking them menacingly to try and intimidate him.  But Adam wasn’t going to give in so easily.

Not without a fight.

He snarled and licked his fangs as well.  Red finally stood face to face with the bigger Wolf and they both growled at each other trying to overpower the other with domination, to prove who is Alpha and who is Omega in this relationship.

Adam with his doubled size over Red stood like a skyscraper over her.  Licking his chops and lowering himself down onto her to make her kneel like the tiny little pup she was.  He was trying to become the Alpha and show her what was right and wrong.  But as Red was now face down in the dirt whimpering with her ears back and her tail tucked in.

Something snapped within her.

She shook her head growling out and slowly stood up.  Her eyes now burning red with dominance as she snarled at Adam.  Standing as tall as she could she yelled at Adam in command through their mind link and Adam slowly lowered himself down with his ears tucked back but he still kept growling and lowly snarling at her. 

Red wasn’t going to kneel to Henry the V, Henry the V was going to kneel to her.

She was his creator.  His master.  And she was going to make sure of it so that no one would ever get hurt again.

Finally Adam submitted.

He was now fully on the ground whimpering as Red still remained on alert in case Adam tried anything funny.

Red continued to snarl and glare deeply at him in the eye then like a true Alpha, she attacked Adam and snapped her jaws over his telling him that he is to obey her command and no one else’s while in this form.

She was his Alpha, and if he slips up once, she will have no choice but to kill him.

Adam kept whimpering and yelping that he had fully surrendered himself to her.  His body, soul, heart and loyalty was to her and her alone.

Once Red truly believed Adam, she got off of him and stopped her dominance but kept it in her eyes as she howled for a hunt to start.  She took off running and Adam quickly followed behind her.  As they ran, Adam could slowly see the light through the Wolf’s eyes and see him running behind Red.  He quickly ran faster to catch up to her but she turned around and snarled at him to stay behind her in case he lost control again and went rapid again.

The two Wolves continued to run and hunt long into the night, Red looking back to see if Adam was still in there and to make sure he knew who was in charge every Wolf’s time.  She made sure he was behind her but close enough so that she could see him.  When it was feeding time, she would feast first and snarl everytime Adam got close to the food to show that it wasn’t his time yet and if he didn’t listen, she would fight him off till he was down on his stomach whimpering for forgiveness and go back to eating until finally allowing him to feast with her.

She knew Adam would be complaining about it in the morning, but this is what she had to do.  She had to do whatever it took for Adam’s Wolf to understand that she was in charge and she wasn’t going to stop until Adam had full control over the Wolf.  Once they would be done feasting, they would go deep into the woods up the mountains and howl into the moon.  Both their howls harmonizing beautifully in the chilly Autumn night, soon their howls were heard by other Wolf packs, some werewolves and the others just simple, smaller, normal wolves.

The howls all sounded like a beautiful choir harmonizing a song in the night.

Adam’s training continued long until the final night of Wolf’s time, each morning they would go over what they were going to go over the following night.  And each night, Red would do her best to be the best teacher Adam could have, and slowly but surely Adam would tell her what he remembered everything the night before.  But on the last night of Wolf’s time, something would happen to finally allow Adam to control the Wolf.

On the last and final night of Wolf’s time, Red and Adam were going to just have fun for the final night.  Mostly Adam had learned his place as the Wolf so Red would reward him with a bit of fun.  Adam had always wanted to try and see if Hide-and-seek mixed in with tag could help him with his tracking as well as his catching so he could learn for himself the take down Wolves make for their prey.

As the full moon rose and they both transformed without any pain from Adam’s transformation and they soon got to playing around like little pups.  Red wrestled Adam to the ground.  The two of then gently snapping at each other’s fur then Red took off running and tauntingly barking at him.  Teasing him that he couldn’t catch her then she took off running. 

Adam now loving the feel the need to run, ran after her and then leaped up at her and gently pounced on her.  Both of them rolling along until Red got the upper hand and pinned him down instead of him pinning her.  Red licked his cheek then took off running into a shroud of bushes and hid in them.  Adam clearly watching where Red ran to hide, stalked up playfully towards it.  Playfully saying where she was as he stalked closer to the bush.  Just as he peeked through it,

Another Werewolf appeared in front of him.

But it wasn’t Red.

It was a young, grey werewolf who Adam sensed that was a little older than Red and he was snarling at Adam.  The grey wolf stalked towards Adam as he slowly backed up eyes widening at this other werewolf.  Fearing that he could probably tell he was half werewolf and would talk and soon word would reach the cult about who he was now.

The grey wolf snapped at Adam who backed up quickly ears lowered and tail inbetween his legs.  He then heard Red’s voice inside his head and when he turned he saw her standing there.  She turned to see what the problem was and narrowed her eyes at the intruding werewolf.

She really didn’t want Adam to pick up a fight with another Wolf so they turned towards each other and slowly walked towards one another.

But the Wolf stood in between them snarling at Adam making him back up towards the trees.  This Wolf clearly meant bad news.  Then he started doing something unforgivable.

He started smelling Red underneath inbetween her legs. Signaling he wanted to mate with her.  By force if she didn’t cooperate.

And right in front of Adam too.

The wolf nudged Red away from Adam still sniffing her, getting into the mating position but Red kept snapping him off of her and all Adam could do was watch with anger and jealousy.  As they managed to get a few feet away from Adam.

Something snapped within him.

Red was his and his alone.  His creator, his master, his alpha, his other half.

His Imprint.

And no hormonal male Wolf was going to take his little girl away.

Not while Papa Wolf had anything to say about it.

Adam snarled and growled furiously then he took off running as quick as he could towards Red and the male wolf.  As Red kept snarling and growling at the male Wolf telling him she wasn’t interested, she suddenly smelled Adam and slowly backed away smirking knowing this wolf crossed the line. And he was going to face the wrath of Henry the V.

The Wolf turned around and saw Adam charging furiously towards him.  Truly seeing how big Adam really was, and feeling the anger in his eyes, he started running like a coward but Adam used his vampire speed as a boost until he finally caught up with the perv that tried to claim his daughter as his property. 

Adam slammed his jaws into the Wolf’s neck until it collapsed onto the ground.  The grey wolf struggled whimpering and snarling trying to break lose but Adam kept holding on tighter until the werewolf scratched Adam across his eyes making Adam release his grip and yelp in pain.  The werewolf started running but soon Red took over and stood in front of him snarling angrily.

He hurt her father, and now he was going to suffer for it.

Red charged at the Wolf and bit onto his throat and shoved him down with all her strength but the male wolf threw her off him and seeking his chance was going to take Red by force.

Not on Daddy’s watch.

Adam tackled the wolf onto it’s side.  Both males tumbling over each other snapping and biting each other until Adam got a tight grip on the wolf’s throat and like he did to Red on his first night as a Wolf, threw him towards several logs plus a boulder to render the hormonal wolf paralyzed not only in pain, but true horror.  As the wolf slammed against the boulder with his back and tumbled to the ground, he saw a giant black furry leg before him, he whimpered as he looked up and saw Adam.

Adam snarled and glared daggers at the young wolf but soon Red came by his side and nudged Adam out of his fury.  Adam turned to Red who only looked at him with a stern look.  Telling him that he wasn’t worth his rage, nor was he to hers even though she is deeply furious about this wolf forcing her away from Adam.  Adam turned back down to the young wolf and slapped his paw deeply across his face to claw him deeply then the two wolves walked off leaving him to bleed to death.

Adam quickly ran off towards the mountain.  Red snarled following him in case he was still in Wolf’s rage but she suddenly stopped when she caught him up on a cliff’s edge looking over the entire forest and threw back his head and howled loudly with Pride.

But Red soon noticed that he was sending out a message.

He was telling all male wolves that he had a daughter, and if any one of them comes to forcefully mate with her. Then they’ll have to go through Papa Wolf first.  He was threatening the entire male wolf population.  And that young wolf would surely spread the news if he survived the night until morning.  Red admired Adam’s determination to protect her and make sure nothing would harm her.

Even if it meant hormonally, desired male werewolves.

Red walked up towards him and nuzzled into his raven black fur and licked his muzzle once he was done sending out the message.  He looked down at her and licked her back all over her face lovingly and gingerly.  They walked down from the mountain, Red ahead with Adam tightly behind her gently nipping at her tail then going up and gently biting her ear.  Red grunted and they began to chase each other around for the rest of the night.

Rolling around on top of each other till the other one was pinned down, trying to overpower the other in a play fight, doing everything a Father and daughter would do together.

Have fun.

By morning, the two of them were curled up together in a cave.  Red was curled up into a ball while Adam spooned close behind her with his arms secured around her tightly but in a gentle grip.  As the sun rose higher in the sky, Red opened her eyes and saw that she was human again and felt arms wrapped around her.  She turned over her shoulder and saw Adam sleeping like a baby.

She gently smiled and slowly rolled over in his arms to snuggle into his chest.  But by doing that, stirred Adam awake.  He opened his eyes and looked down and saw Red cuddling into his chest.  He smiled and said.

“Good morning darling”.

“Good morning,” she sighed contently trying to wake up but was put under the spell of Adam’s soothing scent to go back to sleep when she muttered as she nuzzled into him, “how much do you remember this time?”

“What do you think?” Red had heard the same response from him after dominance night.  His usual reply would be that he would remember bits and pieces of it then black out again then regain control.

“Don’t say it, you kept blacking out, am I right?”  She then felt Adam’s arms move further around her bringing her closer to him.

“Now really Red, you assume that’s what it was after I saved you from that perverted young wolf who so rudely interrupted our night together, I’m shocked”.  Red snapped her eyes open and shot her head up to look at him.

“You—you mean you’ve—”

“To all young male wolves, I have a beautiful daughter, and if any of you want to mate with her or take her away. Then you mongrels will have to deal with me. Her father, her protector. So if I see any of you males flirting with my little girl, you will face my eternal wrath”.  Adam told her the exact words he howled out last night up in the mountains.

“Oh my God—you’ve…..”

“You were my reason to finally stay in control. If I had blacked out for even a moment when that wolf was taking you away, you wouldn’t be here with me now. I couldn’t allow myself to black out and let some boy take my little girl away from me. Not while I could do something about it”.  Adam stated as he stroked through her long brown hair and caressed her cheek.

Red laughed in pure joy as tears appeared in her eyes as she hugged Adam as tight as she could.  She clung onto him for dear life and kissed all over his face like a proud mother.

“Adam you did it! You’ve become the Wolf” she sobbed out happily.  Adam tightened his arms around her and whispered to her.

“Only because I had a great teacher. You helped me gain control Red and I couldn’t have done it without you, thank you”.  Adam kissed her temple and the two of them celebrated happily within the cave.  Rejoicing that controlling the Wolf through a Vampire was possible and nothing had changed Adam for who he is.
