His Favorite Pet

Chapter 9

Author's Note: So, my question for you guys. Who believes that the black wolf that has given Karma visits is Vlad? I'm kinda curious here.

I awoke as the normal of each day, though I was only nervous on this for my last day had dawned. I rose from the bed then changed into a loose fitted green shirt and black shorts. I hadn't seen my four legged friend since the day the Mutt Alpha had come for a visit. I knew I was going to be given to some Mutt if a son. The best thing for me to do is find as much information as possible. And the only source for that, came from Rosa.

I walked through the hall straight to the door with 'Madam Rosa' carves within it.

"Come in," she yelled through the door.

The minute I walked in, she was excited to see me. She closed the door then scrambled about my outfit for my "Grand Presentation" for the future Alpha.

"Vlad is more into the dark colors, so we are thinking of dark blues, reds and maybe some blacks. He likes that color on certain things only. But you'll make it look gorgeous with your tan skin."

"Rosa. What can you tell me about him?"

"Whatever do you mean," she gave me an innocent tone.

That bitch.

"You said you wouldn't sell me. You said it yourself. Now that I'm meant to be some leashed bitch. The fucking least you can do is tell me about this Vlad bastard."

"Well," she sighed. "This is the first time I've gotten a rebel girl. But, I'm sure he will love you."

"Quit the damn act," I got annoyed. "Now tell me. About your damn future Alpha I'm suppose to slave over."

"Vlad McLain," she began. "Is the only son of Raoul and Monica. Raoul was a cruel Alpha of this pack. He showed no mercy, for trespassers or Rouges that came close to our borders. Humans. They were slaughtered by him and only him. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree."

"He is like his father then?"

"In a way yes. Although...there are rumors of him actually possessing a heart. Capable of actually loving another creature than wanting to destroy. But rumors are rumors. You can never tell who speaks the truth unless you walk into the belly of the beast."

"Of course," I growled.

"Well we can discuss your outfit now that you are here. I actually have a few ideas."

Oh damn it. I knew I shouldn't have come in without thinking of a price. Rosa had spoken about picking the wardrobe of dark colors to compliment my skin. She ended up deciding a closet full of laces of red, black, blue and some purple.

"Is there anything else you can tell me about Vlad?" I asked her as she almost escorted me out.

"No need for you to keep asking questions. You'll learn everything in due time, once you are delivered tomorrow. Now, why don't you go pack a few shorts or comfy clothes you may have liked."

I walked out of her office, then sat on my bed. Her reaction was not what I had expected. She seemed almost nice...too nice. Something was not right.

I couldn't have guessed the weird behavior because of a knock on the door.

"There she is," I heard Bruce.

"Why the long face, Karma," Nikoli sat beside me.

"Just thinking guys..."

"It's you leaving that's bothering you," Chauncey leaned against Nikoli.

I could help but feel sad that I was leaving. After all they've done for me, I couldn't help but feel like I was growing closer to them like a family. All three of them were like the big brothers and I was the little sister they cared for.

"Hey don't worry," Chauncey smiled a little. "We can always come visit. If you'd like."

"Oh I forgot," Bruce suddenly yelled.

He pulled out a small box from his pocket then placed it in my hand.

"Oh come on open it!"

They all yelled. They all forgot that they were sitting next to me. I fulfilled their wish and opened the small box. I had no words to describe the greatest thing they have give me.

A bracelet that had a single charm. A yin and yang charm with a black hand print in the white. And a white paw with the black.

"To us you are like one of us," Chauncey spoke.

"But...we don't know how the Vlad will react to it," Bruce sounded slightly worried.

"She'll be fine," Nikoli put faith of me being strong. "Karma is our little bad ass here. And she's stubborn as Hell anyway. Pretty sure that he won't do anything."

They gave me a group hug, then left my room. I was left alone once more, the only thoughts I could think of was this Vlad. How can he be merciless beyond earth? Yet, have rumors spread about him possessing a heart.

*~Madam Rosa's Office~*

"I should have known," Rosa sighed with her head in her hand. "I should have seen this coming."

She reread the letter over and over, to the point it became a burden.

Madam Rosa,

I am waiting patiently for the gift I am promised for my acceptance of being Alpha. I know you have her. Taking your sweet time to prepare her, when you know with no doubt, who she is. If you plan to have her kept away from me longer. I'll show you a knew definition of fear.

Vlad McLain

"Vlad," she spoke out loud. "My only fear is knowing what your father will do when he finds out the truth. You won't be able to hide her from him."
