Chapter Twenty Three
~~~ Esarosa's POV ~~~
All I saw was red. I was so mad at the man in front of me. He didn't stay a man for long. He shifted into his wolf and I grabbed him by the throat. Sinking my finger nails into his voice box. I heard him gurgling and felt him trying to fight. I tightened my grip.
I heard someone else enter the room. I didn't dare turn my head.
"Let him go." A woman's voice said calmly.
"Why?" I asked threw gritted teeth.
"Killing him will only seal your fate." The woman replied.
I turned and looked up at the woman.
My arm muscles relaxed slightly letting the wolf's throat go but not completely.
"He threatened Monique. And than attacked me. I am not in the wrong." I said. I was still furious and my eyes where probably a very dark orange.
"Josh submit. Our daughter is stronger and faster than us. She always has been." The woman said talking to the wolf.
I growled. These people are my parents?
"Esarosa. Please let him go." The woman said again.
The next thing I knew. It wasn't the three of us anymore. A huge man stood just behind the woman. He took one look at the situation. I didn't have much time to react. The man shifted. I shifted at the last second and caught the wolf by the throat. I tore his throat spilling his blood everywhere. I had also taken my claws and ripped the throat out of my so called father.
I turned and snarled at the woman. She was afraid. Not only could I see the fear in her eyes. I could also smell it. It didn't take long and she submitted instantly.
I had conflicting thoughts. I wanted to kill her. She let this all happen to me. But as I looked at her I realized that she was probably thinking the same thing.
I shifted back into my human form. I was naked and covered in blood.
"I will get you cloths." The woman said rushing out of the room.
"Stop." I ordered her.
I heard her stop dead in her tracks than she turned around. "How?" She asked out loud.
I stood there confused. What was she talking about?
"You killed the alpha and the beta, who was next in line. I am the mate of said beta and I submitted to you." She said looking closer at me. "You are the alpha now." She finished bowing her head.
I looked over at the dead bodies that where now human. And started laughing. I couldn't help it.
The woman rushed over to me. "Come lets get that blood cleaned off of you."
I nodded my head. 'This was all a dream' I thought to myself. 'A sick twisted dream.'
'Nadia? do you hear me?' I asked my wolf.
No answer. What was happening? I shifted into her. Why couldn't I hear her?
~~~ Aeliana's POV ~~~
Alex and I followed the others. So far they haven't noticed us.
However we were noticed by someone. It didn't take long for a soft warning growl to be heard. I could tell it was meant for us.
Alex sniffed the air. Than he took off running. 'Where is he going?' I asked Onyx.
'He isn't making sense.' Onyx replied.
So I decided I should follow him. I didn't get very far before I was tackled. My head hit the ground and I blacked out.
~~~ Alex's POV ~~~
I was with Aeliana following my dad and his group when I smelled the most delicious scent. I heard a soft warning growl but I felt I had to follow it.
I couldn't help but just take off. I was hoping that Aeliana would follow me.
I followed the scent. I knew I was getting closer. Than I was tackled. It wasn't threatening at all. I was pinned and than a felt a wet spot on my cheek.
I looked up and saw a beautiful tanned coloured wolf sitting on me. And she was laughing. Than she leaned down and licked my cheek again. I felt sparks everywhere.
Than she leaned down and nipped my ear. I had enough I her teasing me so I pushed up and flipped her. I made sure not to hurt her. It was my turn to tease her. I licked up her muzzle to her brows. Than I nipped just under her chin.
This beautiful wolf was my mate. But I couldn't forget about my friends. Than I snapped my head up. 'Where is Aeliana?' I asked Jacob.
'She is in trouble.' Was his reply.
I jumped up and went in search of Aeliana. "This was my fault again." I thought to myself.
I heard paws behind me. I reached out and realized that my mate was following me.
I stopped and sniffed the ground. I heard a whimper and saw that she too was sniffing at the ground. Than she turned and took a couple steps in a different direction than I would have picked. I walked over to her and sniffed the ground. That was Aeliana's scent. I yipped and nudged my mate to follow the scent. She did and lead me to a small wooden cabin. She stopped and growled.
I gently nudged her to get her attention. When I had it I indicated to her to turn around. She did so I shifted so I could talk to her.
"Who's place is this?" I asked.
I had my back to her still since I was completely naked and didn't have any cloths with me.
"My uncle." Was her reply. Her voice was soft but held some kind of anger in it.
"Your uncle? why did he take my friend?" I asked her.
"I don't know." Was her only reply. Than I heard bone cracking and popping. I knew she had shifted back into her wolf. It saddened me that I didn't get a chance to ask her her name.
"I am Alex." I said than I shifted.
