The Last Deadwolf

Chapter 6

My dad has Klaus chained up in his office, he doesn't trust him in the dungeons. 

"You knew he would come back and you didn't think of telling me", my dad says following me towards my room. "Because we need to let Sylens think that his plan is working, just like Klaus", I tell him. "Sylens is still alive too", he asks then frustrated. "How's that even possible?! Do you have any idea in what kind of a danger we are in?!" 

"Sylens is a mind-vampire, he can play tricks on everyone. That's what he did with you the day you thought you killed him", I explain to him. "And yes I know, but listen very good to me dad", I say and he wasn't pleased to hear that. 

"You are going to tell me what to do", he says raising his voice more and more. "Who do you think you are to tell me what to do!" Oh here we go again, I bet he's going to tell a whole speech like that he's the wolf god and doesn't need any advice on handling something. 

"I am a god! I don't need anyone saying how to lead!" 

"Well maybe you should start changing that since Sylens escaped you for the hundredth time in your life! You didn't even know that he could control people's minds! Make sure you know your enemy before starting a war", I raise my voice, getting so goddamn tired of hearing this bullshit. 

He's been fighting Sylens  for almost six hundred years and still hasn't figured out his weaknesses and his strengths! He hasn't thought of just killing his parents wherever they are and how hard it would be, if he's such a powerful god why doesn't he do all those things?! 

"Why didn't you kill your parents", I ask him and he looks pissed at me without saying anything. "You can hear thoughts of others, and when you get a weird feeling in your bones you get a vision, so you must've known that they would turn on you and become this powerful. So why didn't you kill them?" 

"My powers weren't developed enough", he says then just what he was thinking to say. "They were human, you are a werewolf. You could've ripped them apart, why didn't you?!" 

"I was young Deadlive, I needed my parents. How do you even dare speak against me", he says then trying to ignore the question by raising his voice. 

"I'm young, I could kill you in seconds if I wanted to. And if I've been thinking about it for a while, I'm not doing it because I can't rule yet, I still have shit to learn because I am seventeen years old", I tell him. "You were twenty five at that moment, why didn't you", I ask him again. 

"You forced me to transform, and I've been wondering why. Like, why does it has to be so goddamn important, you could just make another kid! And then I figured it out, at least I think. It was so  I kept you and the pack protected with my deadly power, I know that I ain't a normal Deadwolf, otherwise we would've seen your parents already. They're figuring me out, that's why they send Klaus back, so let them think it's working and in the meanwhile we can go kill them!" 

"But I need to know why you didn't kill them back then, and if you would kill them now." 

"They would expose my weaknesses to everyone", he says then. "Everyone would've tried to kill me, brought the pack and my family in danger." 

"If we would cross them, would you kill them? Despite the risk of everyone knowing your weaknesses", I ask him getting calmer. I can feel him hesitating, he just doesn't want to show anyone that he can be vulnerable because people might take advantage of it. 

"I know how it feels, feeling vulnerable. Once people know what can hurt you they'll try to break you with it, laugh at you. Welcome into life dad where people love to hurt others! Why'd you think I stopped going to school, it was destroying me. But the only thing you can do is show them that it doesn't hurt you, even though you can feel it. Don't show them it hurts." 

"People will challenge the throne Deadlive", he says and I sigh. Why does it always have to do with power,  I'm getting so bloody tired of it. His whole life he hasn't done anything else than getting power and making sure he'll have it 'till his dying breath. 

"Power doesn't gain respect", I say. "Only fear."

I can feel him getting angry, always when it's about power he gets angry. 

"What do you know about respect", he asks when I'm about to walk away. I'm getting filled up with anger, oh how much I want to let poison run through his veins now! "You don't get to tell me what I have to do, like I said before! It isn't because you're a Deadwolf that you are more than me!" 

"Maybe if you didn't got mom killed I would've been the perfect daughter for you", I tell him as I walk out of the room. 

I can't do this shit anymore, I'm actually trying to help him!Everyone in the pack is questioning him for a very long time now, because he actually expects that the pack will protect him while it should be the other way around. Sylens has gotten in his head , if I don't stay alert then the pack will be dead just like my father. I guess it's time to take responsibility as heir to the throne to protect this pack. 

Almost one month later 

Klaus has been telling me stuff like that he doesn't remember anything that happened, that he just wanted to find me and be with me. Of course I ain't trusting that story, my visions are never wrong. I wonder how he convinced his wolf to betray me, he probably hasn't transformed since he was gone. 

"What's on your mind", Klaus asks who's sitting on my bed. "My dad", I tell him. The last few weeks were kind of hard with him. He's completely ignoring me, he isn't mad at me, he's offended by me. There has been problems with the pack, especially Phyllon who keeps challenging my dad for the throne, my father is getting tired and old he can't keep doing this. I'm afraid that I'll have to step up when Phyllon challenges him again to claim the throne, I don't want to but I don't really have another choice. My father may be an asshole, it's not like he has ever turned his back on me, there has been a time where he was actually nice to me it just changed after my mom died. 

I don't wanna exchange a lot of information to Klaus since he can use it to eliminate my dad. "How long do you think your dad is going to be able to keep fighting against Phyllon", he asks then. "As long as Phyllon is alive, my dad won't lay his head down while Phyllon is still around", I say. 

"Anyways, I'm going for a run", I tell him. 

He knows that the soulmate bond has changed, I barely even feel it. I'm having the suspicion that Klaus is here to kill my father, he so interested in everything my father does and he always want to know his plans, like when is he on patrol and how many wolves are with him. Every night I keep an eye on Klaus in case he goes to my dad's room to kill him. 

I'm on a patrol through every pack they're territories. Sylens isn't going to be far away from Klaus, so they must be around here somewhere. No one has picked up one thing from vampires, so there has to be a place where we don't go. 

"What are you doing here on my territory", I hear someone asking. I turn to the side where the voice came from. "I apologize for trespassing Alpha Shaddix", I say. Shaddix isn't an Alpha you wanna make mad, besides my dad Fenrir is Shaddix one of the strongest wolves known. He was once Fenrir's Beta, but he wanted to become Alpha but didn't want to challenge Fenrir back then. 

"You're Fenrir's daughter aren't you", he asks then with a grin on his face. "I've expected you to have the same dark red eyes as your father but yours are pitch black."  "I mean no harm to your pack Shaddix, I'm just passing through to search for vampires that might have been left behind", I tell him. He keeps looking at the scars that my dad made back in his 'happy' days. "You've been in quite the battles for being a newly transformed wolf", he says then with a challenging tone in his voice. "It isn't because I don't have red eyes like you have that I ain't dangerous Alpha Shaddix, I could poison you in just a second if I wanted to", I warn him and he chuckles. 

"Don't worry , I'm not challenging you for a fight", he says. "Are those battle scars though?"  "Why ask the question when you know the answer", I ask him. 

"Do you happen to have seen any vampires around your territory?" 

"A couple of months ago, they were passing through towards the wolfsbane forest", he informs me. "There were some pretty royal vampires walking amongst them , that's probably the reason that they went into the wolfsbane forest. There's no getting into that as wolves." 

Royal ones, that must be my grandparents. Let's go pay them a visit shall we!
