"MOTHER!! MOM MOMMYYYY!!!! NOOOOO!!!" Mother's body sails thru the air as if a discarded doll. The flash of earth erupting eviscerating bolt launches Sabalius to her. Placing me right in her airborne trajectory. Phasing airborne, Alejandro catches mother midair, slamming onto the ground feet first. Skidding backward along with the breaking dirt.

My heart violently pummels within my chest. Clutching the merged midform of my mother's tightly to my chest. "MAAA, MOMMI!!!, TOOOOTTIIIII!!!" Her name bellows from my mouth, submerged into her coat. Slowly, I kneel, clutching her. Her life essence coating, my hands with every heart weakening beat. Then lower us to the earth.

Her words whispered, "A mother's life is to sacrifice for her children. Even...if in doing so. She gives.... Her...own....." Her Last wulf spoken words fading "Myyyy... babie..s..s..s..sss."

Slowly mothers' eyelids descend, and, with her last sigh, she is silent. "ma.... no, mother, Toti. Noo." burying my head in her neck fur. Mommy, please, mommy, don't leave ME! MOOTTHHEERRR!!!." I lay mother's wulf midform gently to rest on the ground beneath. As if she were sleeping.

"MOTHERRR!!!!!!!" Sable howls. A seismic lightning bolt explodes from beneath me. Then, with his awakened true nature demonic, a beast tone beyond guardian, beyond wulf, erupts. "ALEJANDRO!! KILL, KILL, KILLLLLLL!!!!" My head snaps left with such force, vertebrates pop.

Sable's seething BLOOD RAGE ignites my core. "KIILLL KILLLL KILLL KILLLL KILLL CONSUME LIFE!!! NOTHING SHALL LIVE!!!" Then, howls like a demon.

Fueled by his berserker howl, The wrath of our Celestial guardian mountain wulf pack emerges with unparalleled savagery. Immersing all my light within. I, son of Estrella & Cary Suarez, Celestial Guardian wulf of the Constellation, rose to my feet. Standing over mother's still form steeled glaring at the sneering ancient one, behind his raised barrier, Mocking me. But not for long. The key to unlocking my caged sinister emotion, pain, was just freed. Lycaon will be shown no mercy.

Opal jet black lightning cloud forms and begins slowly spiraling downwards, expanding, it rages out of control. Its black mushroom plume spreads, creating an opal eclipse. In the distance, a second beast awakens.

"MA..MA...MAMA...MAMA ALPHAAA!!!" Simultaneously my wulf and human brothers bellow, losing their minds. Our mother, his best friend, was killed. Our greatest treasure. She taught him to be proud of who he is, loving him as he was; nothing will stop him. Cocoa's bellowing howls soars to all. Cocoa's complete Celestial Guardian wulf form emerges. "NO. NO ONE. NONE WILL STOP MEEEE!! DEATH TO ALL!!" Cocoa unleashes tornadoes from nothing in a nanosecond, descending whips. Tearing apart the earth, racing towards Lycaon...

Not even Beta Amarok, Cocoa's Mate, Will stop him. Because my second Beta has also lost his mind. Amarok's body turns phantasmal. His ashen wulf specter body lunges, indiscriminately whether dead or living Amarok kills all. His form is a spectral blur tearing apart all rogues in his path. Clearing the way for my brother to reach me. Not that he needed it. Cocoa's beta sigils pulsate. Unearthly power claims his wulf form, and an unhallowed death speak bellows beastial. "YOU SHALL PAYY!!" But my beta is not alone.

A third rivaling force is an elder we have always called sister, mentor, and one-time Beta. Delta Carmen. Knowing what it meant. The moment Celestra heard Sable's death scream, Carmen, human soul companion to Celestra, assassin celestial guardian wulf, also loses her mind.

Taken brutally from her. Fulfilling debt owed. Delta Carmen releases her soul bond with Celestra. Her sister, celestial caretaker, childhood packmate, best friend, previous Alpha, and companion are gone.

For the first time, the world witnesses the awakening of a celestial guardian gone berserk. The dormant monstrosity within my Alejandro, placed there by Sabalius, awakens. Now Ano, Godling of infirmities, son of death herself, has awakened. Ano's essence merges with Alejandro's conscious spirit. Numbing cold tendrils uncoil, extending off Sable's form claiming him. Lycaon has used the key that restrained Alejandro & Sable Acosta Suarez, pain.

Going against the oath of a celestial Guardian. Someone so vile, so poisonous, Ano's essence, fusing Alejandro's being, robs Alejandro of all compassion. Replaced by a seething hunger emerges; for souls.

Not even the Goddess herself, Mistress of them all, will Alejandro hear. My mate cannot see or hear any of them. Alejandro Acosta, Prime Alpha of Celestial Guardian Pack. Has, at last, succumbs to his ravenous, insatiable hunger for souls, his true nature. As if candlelight were snuffed out. Alejandro's compassion is extinguished. Only death's emissary remains. Their hunger froths saliva strands. Their snarls beastial. And I release him, " GO, MATE, FEAST!!"

Climbing, inking its way into my conscious mind. My being swallowed in my abyss of which there is no light. Seeing mother's blood ebbing from the gaping hole in her chest. I kneel once more, pressing my wulf mother's body close to me, whispering in her ear. But the inky ooze poisoned laced words are ones even my mother would have opposed.

"I am going to eat him, mother. You will hear the ripping of his flesh, his agonizing bellows, the crunching of his bones. They will be my orchestra. The tasteless crimson liquor of Lycaon's essence will quench my thirst. Then, just like spaghetti, I will suck his soul. But mother, he will not escape me.

He WILL NEVER ESCAPE ME! For I will go into darkness... and eat him repeatedly. Until I am satisfied. Which will be; never. .... From this day forth, I will forever know hunger. This is why Toti, I wanted peace. Because. I was created... from death's abyss."

Standing above the most sacred thing besides my Mate and son. Sabalius and I physically merge. Our very thoughts, mouths, voice, and force create a beastial roar resonating deep into the Celestials' world. Heard. By all. But one particular Goddess, knowing its meaning, and reels. "ESTRELLAAA!!"
