Furies

Chapter Fourteen

Anna's POV

Five hours.

We've been fighting Magaera's forces for five hours with lives lost on both sides. I just stood in the middle of all the chaos, the stench of blood mixed with sweat in the air.

In that moment, I heard a growl, I quickly spun around to see a rouge werewolf charging at me with full speed, I didn't have enough time to move, but I was knocked out of the way. Looking at my savior, I realized that I was someone I didn't know.

The boy stood up and extended a hand to me with a smile. I took it, "can't have my beta's mate dead now can we?" he asked

"I'm guessing you're the other packs alpha?" I stated more than asked

He smiled and said, "Carson"

"Anna" I replied

"Talia......, please, stop this" we heard from next to us, turning, we found Chris standing still while Talia circled him with a smirk.

She walked up to him and whispered something in his ear and then stepped back.

Within seconds, Chris bleared his claws and ripped off his already torn shirt and started scratching his stomach, pushing his claws in and ripping them out while screaming in agony.

I gasped as I remembered her power to have people do whatever she wanted them to, willingly or not.

As Talia watched her handiwork with the same sadistic smile, he smile suddenly faltered and she fell to the ground, behind her was her mother with an empty syringe in her hand.

"Help me get her out of here" she said and I complied as Zander and Jason helped went to help Chris, we all walked back to the house with Curt and Carson with us.

"you sure this is gonna work?" I asked standing next to the bed Talia was laid on

"I definitely hope so" Allecto said, looking at her daughter with worry

Zander stood in the very corner of the room, he was angry, anyone could tell, because since the battle began we hadn't seen Amara, she was no longer on the battlefield that much we know and it had everyone, especially Zander, on edge.

"So that's a fury huh" Curt said coming to stand right next to me

"Yup" I answered

"I've always thought that they were myth" he said looking and Talia with fascination

"oh yea, they are as mythical as werewolves" I joked, he laughed

The with a sudden intake of breath, Talia sat up abruptly, we all backed away slowly incase Allecto's potion hadn't worked.

She looked at us and then shouted, "we have to go..., WE HAVE TO GO NOW"

"Talia, what's wrong" Allecto asked

Talia turned to her mother with a confused face, that's when I remembered that they were very young when she was 'killed', but even with her confusion, she still answered, "Magaera, she has 'mara"

"what do you mean?" Zander said with a gruff voice, obviously trying to keep his wolf at bay.

"She's giving birth" talia responded with a worried expression

"What's bad about that" I asked

"we found out that Amara is having twins, a boy and a girl" she said with a still pained expression.

"So?" Carson asked

"Do you know why furies only consist of females?, it's because every male fury that is born is killed, Magaera is planning on killing the boy as soon as Amara births and remaking the girl in her own image"

A growl was ripped through the room and zander was out of there in a flash, Jason and Chris exited the room and went after him to cool him down, even though they seemed very pissed themselves.

It's one thing to mess with an Alpha mate, but to mess with an Alpha's mate and his pups, that a whole different story.

It took about 15 minutes before the boys came back, by that time, we were all ready to leave to go get Amara.

"Carson, can you do me a favor and oversee the fighting while I'm gone, I ju-" Zander started but was cut off

"Of course man, go get you mate, Curt and I will take care of things here" Carson said patting Zander on his back

I had yet to tell Zander that Curt was my mate, I figured I'd be best to tell him when all of this is over.

Talia opened the portal and we all went in, I Saying a silent 'goodbye and be safe' to my mate.

"I don't get it, should it be this empty?" Zander asked

"Magaera wants' to win the war, she doesn't care who gets hurt when it's for her benefit, so if she had to send everyone, she did" Allecto answered

After a long, and I mean long walk, we came to a cave, we creeped inside slowly and quietly, and there laying on a stone table was Amara's uncontiopus body.

Wasting no time Zander went to her and inspected her for any injeries, while Allecto stabbed the syringe into her neck and push the liquid in.

Within minutes, Amara had awakened with a panicked look on her face, which turned into a stone cold stare as she looked around the room.

She abruptly got to her feet, much to our protests.

"Amara, what's wrong?" Talia asked with confusion

"Magaera took my babies, I'd be damned if I let her corrupt my daughter and kill my son" she replied and walked out of the cave with rage.

'I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of her anger' I though before following her along with the others.
