Withered Love

Alpha's Rage

Yes, I know Alpha's are territorial and are aggressive and possessive...well at least that is the case when it comes to my mates anyways. I can't speak to what Drake's father does with other she-wolves because I find it downright disgusting, and that he would have such low regards for his mate. As I followed Drake out of the small house my mind began to wander as I was wondering and trying to piece certain things together and trying to find answers.

As we all stepped outside of the house Drake continued to drag Clifford toward the Alpha's house as did Kade with Dianna, she struggled trying to break free of my mate's unrelenting grip. I know I do not like him touching her, but I also realize this is my mates trying to protect me as well.

The warriors took an aggressive stance surrounding us as we began walking down the narrow roadway. As we arrived in front of the Alpha's house, I noticed him walking out of the front door with his face filled with rage, not knowing what he was informed from his pack.

"What is the meaning of this Drake?" His father growled low.

"When one of your pack members grab my mate and drags her into a home there becomes an issue!" Drake growled out viciously as his grip tightened on Clifford.

The Alpha glanced to Clifford with a look of confusion which seemed to turn to one of rage as his eyes bore into his warriors.

"Clifford, did you grab Claire and drag her into one of the houses?" The Alpha questioned as rage filled his eyes.

"Of course, I did, that bitch needs to die for interfering with the relationship between Dianna and Drake. That bitch is going to die one way or another!" He growled out deeply as Drakes claws sank in deeper.

"I see, that won't happen I can tell you that. I do not agree with my son in regard to tossing Dianna aside, yet I would suggest to my son that he uses her to breed with. We need strong lines within the pack, I am sure she can produce a strong pup for my son." The Alpha spat out with distain of Drakes choice.

I looked to Drake to see his utter distain and ferocity to his father's words as a growl I had never heard before escaped from him. The deep raspy guttural growl full of aggression and viciousness intent in warning to his father as his body began to shift...not to his wolf but Lycan!

His father took a step back not knowing what to expect, realizing his father must have not even noticed that Kade was standing in Lycan form. The Alpha's attention primarily directed to his son who now stood almost seven foot tall as muscles twitched and rippled beneath the tight skin, my breath hitched as my Lycan was clawing to be released as it howled calling to her mate.

"You dare insult my mate by insinuating I breed with another she-wolf to produce a pup while 'MINE' is carrying my pup?" His voice ear shattering loud voice boomed coming out as a sadistic growl.

The ends of his now elongated fingers with sharp deadly claws twitched ready to slice through his father's flesh moved in anticipation. I knew Drake was no longer himself his Lycan had taken full control as his eyes bore into the man who had disappointed him with his infidelity and disrespect of his own mate.

A growl ripped from Drake as he took a step forward heading for his father and I knew I needed to intervene if the Alpha was to survive another day let alone another minute.

"You dare allow others to touch my mate and then suggest your own mental absurdities intending I continue your path of disgrace and disgusting disregard for my own my mate like you have my mother? I suggest you step down as Alpha now before I tear you apart and just take the position from you!" Drake growled out viciously.

Drake dragged Clifford along with him as his claws sank deep within the side of his neck as blood began to run fervently from the open wounds. As he suddenly tossed the werewolf to the ground in front of his father knowing this would illustrate his point prudently. Clifford tried to right himself yet toppling to the ground once more. Drake stalked closer when suddenly I felt myself being forced back losing all control of my bodily functions once again.

I knew in that very moment my Lycan had taken full control over our body leaving me devoid of any form of control on what may occur. I felt our head turn taking in our mate Kade as he clutched tightly to the shoulder of the she-wolf Drake's father wanted him to breed with.

A vicious growl ripped from my body as Kade realized what was happening as his Lycan growled low as he reacted tossing Dianna in front of the Alpha as well. Her body went flying through the air crashing down in front of him toppling on top of Clifford's bleeding body.

Blood now pooling beneath Clifford as he continued to attempt to right himself undoubtedly trying to remove himself from the path of Drake's fury. Dianna shrieked as she clutched at Clifford trying to pull him up along with herself trying to remove themselves from the path of their impending deaths.

Now that Kade had released the she-wolf I now loathe with an utter ferocity I felt my Lycan wanting to feel her blood coating our long claws. Kade stepped closer rubbing his hands along my skin as sparks of our connection coursed through me, a whine escaping unexpectedly.

Drake's head whipped around as his expression held such malevolence to find my whine was just caused by Kade's touch. His head whipped back directing his attention fully on his father as a howl crossed with a growl ripped from him as a surge of rage and sorrow overflowed through our link.

I knew what he had envisioned doing considering the sorrow was so overpowering it stifled my breath. I stepped forward taking my rightful place at my mate's side reaching my clawed hand up grasping his arm drawing his attention to my presence.

Suddenly the Luna ran from the house almost skidding to a halt as she took in the situation before her.

"Mother, go back into the house now I do not want you to witness this!" Drake boomed in an Alpha tone not meaning to be callous.

"Son, he is my mate...yes he is not a good one when it comes to his infidelity, but he is a good Alpha. He only wants what is best for you! Please spare him." Her voice cracked as a tear slipped over her cheek.

"He wants me to breed Dianna for pups...do you even know how many other pups he may have within this pack alone mother? Have you actually seen what he does to the she-wolves within this pack?" He growled out with determination.

"I know he breeds them; no, I am unaware of any pups that resulted in those breeding's son. I know he can be a heartless bastard at times not taking in account that his actions hurt me unimaginably. I doubt he would force breed the she-wolves of the pack so in his mind if they were willing..." She trailed off taking in the sight of her mate before her standing un-phased by her words.

"Perhaps I should enlighten you to what a true animal you are mated to mother!" He growled deeply.

His mothers' eyes widened in shock to her own sons' words, yet I saw the wonder and concern within them. Her emotions were evidently written on her face when I noticed an older man stepping forward towards us as a low growl ripped from me. I did not like he was approaching my mate, my nerves on edge as I felt my Lycan ready to pounce and tear him apart if he made one wrong move.

"Excuse me...umm Drake?" The man stammered out.

Drakes' attention drifted to the older man; the man's dark brown hair was short with his brown eyes trained on my mate intently. A curious expression crossed my mates face, full of rage but curiosity to why this werewolf would interrupt what was currently erupting. The older werewolf looked towards the Luna with a look of pity and apology, and that is when it happened.
