«Jefferson)
I’m not certain how long I’ve been in this hellhole, they come down each day and slice into me and ask
me the same questions over and over. I can only assume I’m not on Pack land or else I would have
been found by now, instead I’m still here being slowly carved into like a thanksgiving turkey.
They want to know what I was doing at the Alpha’s house but I’m not telling them. it’s not like we
discussed anything important but it’s private and none of their da mn business. I knew this little female
was bad news as soon as I heard about her and now that I’ve met her family I’m almost certain they
have done something to manoeuvre themselves into the Alpha’s life. I just can’t figure out what it is,
they are really careful not to talk around me or anywhere I can hear.
“Are you going to tell me what I want to hear?” Theo asks me, he always starts the day like this and I
always ignore him. “You will tell me one of these days.” He puts the knife to my thigh and drags it along
until I hiss out in pain. Thankfully I can’t see the damage too well, they have a thing for teeth and now
my whole face is swollen, add in the punches to my face and opening my eyes is more pain than it’s
worth.
“Father, we have to move him,” I hear Faye yell as she stamps her way down the stairs, the woman
has not heard of elegance, she’s the actual bull in a china shop.
“Why?” Theo sounds irritated at his daughter and it shows as the knife digs deeper into my thigh.
“Anna is here and she brought this male with her and he smelled him

on me. He’s on his way to the Alpha right now.” I’m trying to wrack my brian to figure out who the male
could be, it can’t be Darryl or else she would have said Alpha not male. While I’m running through
names and faces in my head I feel someone put their hands under my arms and someone else lifts my
feet. Must be Theo and one of his sons. there is no way Faye could lift me like this. Even without
regular food I’m still a buff bloke.
“Is he dead?” I almost hear fear in Fave’s voice, she knows what’s coming her way if I’m found here.
“Not yet.” Theo answers around a grunt.
The feeling of being anything but sitting down makes my stomach feel like it’s going to rebel but as
soon as we are outside I can finally breathe for the first time in ages. I keep myself still as they carry
me further outside, I know we have hit a shaded area when the light behind my lids stops being so
bright.
‘Just tell me when.’ Arrax whispers in my ear. he hasn’t been able to do much thanks to the silver
chains but now he’s ready to rip them apart.
‘As soon as we are alone.’ I feel him grunt in approval. I don’t wait long before I feel Arrax pushing
forward.
“He’s changing. gets the wolfsbane. Quickly!” I hear the panic in Theo’ s voice as they drop me to the
floor. I hit the leaf covered floor on all four paws. Arrax doesn’t take the time to stretch or look at my
captures. He just looks at the space between them and runs as fast as he can. I can hear Theo
shouting behind me but it’s getting further and further
away.
We need to kill them,’ I urge Arrax to try to get him to turn around.
‘No, we are too weak. I will get you to safety and then you can get better and then you can kill them.’ I
like that idea, at least he agrees

they need to die.
Arrax runs for a while until I start to wonder if he knows where he’s going. he stops every once in a
while and sniffs at a tree and then changes direction.
‘What are you doing?’ I ask him.
‘All I can smell is them, surely there has to be some other wolves around here.’ Now that he mentions it
I see what he means, I can’t smell any other wolves either.
‘Maybe circle back around, we might find Fraction and his Beta.’ I tell him.
‘No, we don’t know if they are involved. We need to find somewhere safe.’ I don’t agree with him but I
can already tell there is no arguing with him.
‘Anna has a place a few miles from here,’ I tell him thinking maybe she can call Darryl for me. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
‘The little Omega? That’s perfect. Tell me which way to go.’ I direct Arrax towards Anna’s and he puts
on a burst of speed, I can feel his panic which must mean I’m in a pretty bad way.
We run until the sun hits the tree line and I catch my first scent of a wolf that hasn’t been torturing me
for goddess only knows how long.
“That must be the house, time for you to go. If I sneak up on an Omega it will terrify her.’ I agree with
him as he pulls himself back and I sag to the floor.
“Anna just stay there.” I hear a voice shout not too far ahead, I know the voice but I can’t quite place it.

“He looks hurt, who is it?” I hear Anna shout and she seems to be getting closer.
“Jeff? Jefferson? Is that you?” As the male voice gets closer I place the scent before I place the voice.
“Mac.” My voice comes out as a croak.
“Anna, get some blankets, right now!” I feel Mac’s hands on my shoulder. I flinch without even meaning
too.
“Easy mate, I ain’t going to hurt you.” I try to nod my head at him but there is a darkness coming in from
the edges. I know I’m about to pass out and I need to tell him before I do.
“Faye.” I whisper to him. I feel a softness engulf me as a second set of hands join Mac’s.
“What did he say?” Anna’s sweet voice reaches my ears.
“I don’t know, help me get him into the house.” I feel myself being lifted for the second time that day
and honestly I’m shocked Anna is able to help lift me at all.
“We need to call Darryl, he’s going to want to come and get him.” Anna says as we move along to her
house.
“We will, as soon as we get him in the house we will call Darryl and Fraction. They both need to come
here.” I’m lifted to an odd angle so I assume we have hit some stairs.
“Why Fraction?” It’s become warmer so we must be in the house now.
“He came from Swiftmane direction and I told you what I smelled on Faye.” I’m put down on something
soft and I can feel tiny hands. running over my b*dy.

“We need Doctor Lee or even Leon, some of these are really bad. I’ll watch him while you make your
calls,” I don’t hear Mac’s answer as I finally let the darkness come over me, if Anna is here then I’m
safe. I
can rest now,
