A loner's call.

A Promise

Ferrum

" You stand before the Alpha of this pack accused of breaking the law," A man stood in front of Chelsea in a room filled with people. The she-wolf was visibly trembling while her father stood off to the side, awaiting his trial." What do you have to say for what you done?"

Chelsea stayed silent, her lips quivering as she looked over to her father. He gave her a stern look and she opened her mouth." I was protecting my father."

" Is he not able to fight on his own behalf? Fight for the challenge that was accepted by him?" The man's voice raised octave, clear distaste dripping from his tongue.

" I-" Chelsea began but was cut off. Her eyes filled with unshed tears as he father ripped through her with only words.

" You make me seem weak, without strength to defeat an alpha who hasn't even came to his title. You bring disappointment to your family, a disgrace to your own blood and unfit to fill my role when I am gone. I will be glad when I am rid of you." He snarled off from the side.

Chelsea broke down, unable to contain her weeping cries any longer. The man before her continued on with her sentence." Chelsea, as per order of the future Alpha and current one, you are sentenced to death. Beheading within the next hour. You will have time to call and say goodbye to family and friends but will remain here."

I wasn't one hundred percent agreeable with what was happening. Having been on my own for so long fighting was merely to survive in the outside world but with the packs they took it as a sign of disrespect, an unforgivable and death worthy thing.

I looked at Aiden as he stood beside his father, head held high and eyes trained on Chelsea's father. He wasn't interested in what Chelsea's sentenced would be but what her father's would be. He wasn't the one to do the act but he was her family and for some reason what she did effected them.

Chelsea was hauled off by a guard and her father filled the space she was once in. He stood tall, stoic in the face of all these people.

The man, just as he told Chelsea, repeated his words." You stand before the Alpha of this pack accused of break the law," He paused, allowing the words to sink in before continuing." What do you have to say for what you did."

" Not guilty. Are accuse me of law breaking but it my daughter that had done it. As you had said I was the one fighting the young Alpha over a challenge he orchestrated so how could I have been the one to not follow the rules? I stayed honourable, stayed true to the law." Laim stared daggers at Aiden and my mate returned the look.

Aiden looked to his father then stepped forward." I will allow Laim his life if he leaves here without trouble, promise no war and further peace between our packs." My mate knew war would come for he refused Laim's daughter and claimed him a breaker of laws, an unhonourable man before the people in this room.

" There will be war when I am out of this place, no longer will there be peace. I will wreck havoc on your people and land, claim your women as mine and use them as I see fit, your warriors will be slaughter or used as slaves, the children will be sold off to whoever wished to buy them and your precious mate," Laim's cold eyes settled upon me, my skin crawled with the wicked grin he sent my way." She will be my personal toy, used to warm my bed and fulfill my carnal need, beaten, tossed around between my men, used in any and every way you can imagine and then, when she has no further use, I will kill her before your eyes. While you pled with me, fight to save her delicate life. I will slit her throat open and bath in her blood while you suffer the pain of her death, feel half of you be taken away, and then I will rip your throat out with my teeth."

Aiden's hands were clenched into fists so tightly that his knuckles were white, so tightly closed that his nails dug into his flesh and made blood drip from his hands. He jaw was glued shut with such force I thought his teeth might shatter, he was so enraged I could tell he wanted to kill the man in this moment.

" You was given the chance to leave, to live your life without pain and suffering, Liam." I said aloud. Everyone turned their heads my way as I stepped toward him." Instead you choose to threaten my mate, an Alpha much younger than yourself yet much stronger. You put claim to deaths of many, speak of rape and selling off children, you speak of using his mate and ending her when you are done and that makes you a fool. Makes you an foolish ruler, a wolf who deserves to live in hell, to suffer a thousand deaths over, and to drowned in the deepest of seas on the loop. You make this promise here today in front of many people, a room full of people you claim to set fire to, but I stand here before you to make a promise of my own. I hope you escape, I hope you manage to slip from our grasp just so you can rally your people, to rally your pack of monsters by your side and make true to your word just so I can find you and end you the way you claim you will end me. I will slit your throat open and watch as your life slips from a weak body, from a shell of a weak wolf. I have faith in this pack and I know that your wrath will not touch a single person here, a war will happen and once it's over we will be the ones standing."

Liam's nostrils flared as I stood in front of him, confident and sure of my word. I only stepped away from him when I knew he was questioning whether I was speaking the truth or just empty words.

" Liam," The man who had spoken to both daughter and father called." You are sentenced to death, beheading with your daughter Chelsea. You will have time to say your goodbyes, call family and friends but you will remain here... locked away."

Just as before a guard escorted Liam toward the dungeons where I had spent just a day in. I watched as he fought against them, pushing and shoving against them but to no avail. He was dragged away and out of sight.

I startled when I felt a hand grasp my arm gently, the instant electrical sensation that covered my skin let it be known it was Aiden. I looked up into his blue eyes and smiled." I didn't mean to speak out of turn or anything," I stated but Aiden gently shushed me.

" It's fine," He softly smiled at me. The people in the room had cleared out and left just me and him. We gazed into each other's eyes until his head inclined toward mine, his lips brushed against mine in a shy kiss. He seemed unsure about it, didn't know if I would allow it but when I didn't move away from him his lush lips pressed firmly against mine.

We kissed hungrily for each other, breathing heavily, his tongue swiped across my bottom lip asking for entrance. I parted my lips and granted him entrance, our tongues brushed against one another, dancing together and ignited a fire.

Warm hands trailed down my sides and to my ass, they gave a gentle squeeze before they moved lower. Grabbing ahold on the back of my thighs Aiden lifted me up. My legs instinctively wrapped around his waist. One arm wrapped around his shoulders while the other raised to his hair, my fingers ran through silky strands and gripped them.

I was pressed up against a wall and Aidens body was firmly pressed against mine, there I could feel a stiffness just below my ass.

I moaned, Aiden growled, and then we began grinding against each other.
