From The Ashes Of The Past We Will Rise

Chapter 25

The smell of fear hung heavily in the air as the wide and shocked eyes of everyone looked at the wolves. They all had the sudden urge to bear their necks at the pack of wolves. Small whimpers of fear left their mouths as their bodies shook uncontrollably. Li Na had been keeping herself busy by licking the unconscious Jin Zixun face in the hopes of helping him gain consciousness. Jin Zixun face was wet from the saliva Li Na's tongue left behind.

Jin Guangshan eyes had not wavered or left the white wolf once. He yelped and jumped when he heard a low growl behind him. He turned around slowly and let out a scream when he saw a white wolf standing in front of him. Fengmian, for his part, could only stare. His life flashes before him as Wangji and Wuxian look at him. He knew than that his life would end here today, and there is nothing he could do or say that will stop the inevitable.

People had been moving backward on shaky legs, never taking their eyes off the wolves, creating as much distance between them and the Jiang sect leader. Wen Rouhan nodded his head knowingly as a small smile grazed his face.

'So that's what she meant than. I'm glad that I had taken her advice and let go of my plans and ambitions.'

He thought to himself with a satisfied smile.

Jin Ling , Wen Ning, and Zizhen took in their friends in their wolf form with looks of disbelief and a sense of total silence. They did not know how to feel about all of this. Madame Jin had regained some sense of control over her shaking body as she kneeled on her knees next to her son and took his now healed arm in her hands. Disbelief garnered on her face as she looked between her sons arm and the white wolf who was still busy licking Jin Zixun and shaking his body lightly, not using force. Her eyes moved to where her useless husband stood shaking and whimpering, and she could not help but feel a little satisfied that he would finally get what he deserved.

Li Na became impatient as she looked at the down at the unmoving body of Jin Zixun and moved off the man's body before she bit down not so delicately on his ankle with the intention of finding a good grip for her to drag his limp body. Once she had it, she dragged him behind her as she made her way to where her Ling-jie and Yuan-ge were standing and dropped him before the two wolves with a proud air around her.

Jin Zixun decided at that very moment to open his eyes. Fear clouded his eyes and his scent that hanged heavy around him mixed with the smell of his own piss. A horrified scream left his mouth as he tried to scramble away from the three wolves, but A-Yuan placed his big front paw on his chest, keeping the squirming man in place.

"Wuxian, please ."

Yanli whispered with desperation  and a pleading tone of voice from behind the alpha and omega. Wuxian turned his head slightly as the wolf looked at her before he turned himself around, completely dipping his head just slightly to the side.

"Wuxian, please, we were once your family."

She spoke softly as tears rolled down her face as she refused to look at the dead bodies of her mother and brother instead of keeping her eyes and focusing on the white wolf before her. Her pleading words made the wolf shift into his human form. Wei Ying smiled a soft and sad smile as he looked at her.

"I never was part of your family, young lady Jin, and you knew it. How many times had I faced your mothers wrath and been struck by zidian without any interference from your father, you, or your brother. How many times did the words. Axian, you should not anger mother so much?. You should stop being so mischievous that Mother would not have a reason to discipline you so harshly. Axian, you know, mother and A-Cheng love you right they just don't know how to express themselves. The funny thing is that I believed you. I believed every lie that fell so smoothly from your lips."
