Chapter 20

>Danny’s POV<

I sat around a war meeting with my dad, his beta, and my beta, as well as the new werebear, Zaire, and the werefox, Kyla. Ryan wasn’t allowed to come in, I didn’t understand why so I was a bit grouchy. Arturo had his mate in here, when I heard that Lachlan could sit in I started an argument with my dad. He said it was because Lachlan was the only person here who knew how Lycaon acted.

“A few of a scouts are out looking for where Lycaon’s camp is, so far nothing,” Theo said to my father.

“We will find him eventually, then we will strike, and get your son back,” my dad said, looking at the war bear.

“I will kill him myself,” he growled. I talked a bit to Zaire, apparently his son was only six, but he could hardly control his transformations. He would transform when ever he felt threatened or scared. So Zaire had kept him away from people most of his life, unless it was his family.

“Don’t worry, you will have your revenge Zaire,” my dad assured.

“What about me?” Lachlan spoke up. “Shouldn’t…why are we even discussing this yet? We haven’t been able to even locate the man, he might not even be here anymore, he could be back in Scotland.”

“Zaire, he does have a point,” Zaire huffed at my dad’s words. Zaire talked with Lachlan before this meeting, so I think he knows what Lycaon has done to Lachlan.

“Fair enough wolf,” Zaire said, looking at Lachlan with sad eyes.

“Lachlan, are you sure that he’d leave?”

“He could leave, I wouldn’t be surprised, maybe to rally his forces, maybe to make sure that he was safe until the time to come and get me,” Lachlan explained. I haven’t said much, nor has Kyla, this entire time, I had nothing to add, I guess she doesn’t either.

“Would he take my cub?” Zaire asked with concern.

“If he is the way that he is, I don’t think that they’d risk scaring him anymore,” Zaire looked relieved with the news. The meeting went on with little to say, it was boring to say the least, when I finally got out of it I went to my room and found Ryan sleeping peacefully on the bed, I smiled and crawled into bed with him, spooning him. I gave his neck a small kiss before going to sleep with him.

>Lycaon’s POV<

I sat down by the creek, taking in the beauty of Canada, of course once I’m done here will be returning to Scotland, but maybe I’ll buy a nice little house here for a get away. I shrugged and threw a stone into the creek. After I kill that pack’s last remaining member, after that I’ll be done.

I could still remember the day that it all started, I still have nightmares about it. Me and my wife almost broke up, even if it would kill us, we were thinking about it. That was until I started to hunt down the pack that did what the did to us.

-Flashback 10 years ago-

I woke up in a strange room. It was cold and damp down there. I was tied down to a chair, I tried to get out, but I was chained down. I was facing a furnace. Are we going to have marshmallows? I thought with a half smile, trying to lighten my spirit. It didn’t quite work out as well as I hoped.

A door behind me unlocked, I could hear five people walking down the stairs, with the muffled sound of two people screaming. When they came into view my heart sank. The Alpha stood by the furnace and opened it, throwing in some logs and a match. My two sons were being held by two men each, both of them screaming and thrashing trying to escape their captors.

I growled lowly and was about to change when the alpha spoke up. “I wouldn’t change if I were you,” I glared at him as he walked closer. He grabbed a hold of a collar like thing around my neck. He pushed on it a bit and spikes sank into my skin. “Now if you try to change, you’ll kill yourself, then how will your save your son’s?”

The alpha walked back and petted my oldest son’s hair. “Pretty nice kids you’ve got here,” I growled loudly as I watched the man pick my son up by his hair and shove him into the furnace, closing it quickly. Tears fell from my eyes as I watched my eldest son burn to death, I tried to look away but I just couldn’t, it hurt to much, I needed to see my son for just one more time…just once more.

“Now this one is a little spitfire,” the alpha said, making me tear my sight from my oldest son. He was now petting my youngest son. “How old is he? 10? 7?” He’s 6 you monster!! I thought angrily. “However old he is, he definitely has courage, he takes after you. Now if only you listened to me and kept your pack out of my territory.” It wasn’t my fault that one of my pack members, who turned rogue ran through his territory! “What a shame…well it sounds as if he’s done,” The alpha opened up the furnace and the smell of burnt flesh flew from it…the burnt flesh of my son.

I started to struggle and shout at the alpha to take me and leave my son alone, he didn’t hear me. He laughed at me as he hoisted my son into the air. With his last strength my son attacked the alpha, getting him a hit across the head. “I will not be missing you!” The alpha growled as he shoved my son into the furnace. I yelled until my voice became sore.

I was trapped there until one of my pack members found me. By that time I felt dead inside. “Alpha! Alpha! Are you okay?” He asked shaking me a bit, I shook my head at him and kept it low. “Don’t worry I’ll get you and your sons out of here, where-” I wouldn’t let him finish that sentence, I grabbed him by the neck and brought him to my face, I was growling.

“Don’t ever talk about my sons again, am I clear?!” He nodded his head, frightened. I tossed him back a bit and undid my feet from the chains. I walked out first and changed quickly, running back to my house and my mate. When I got in she hugged me tight.

“I’ve missed you so much! Where are they? Where are, are sons?” I started to cry softly and shook my head.

“I couldn’t save them, I tried my best, but I couldn’t,” my wife held me tightly to her while I cried into her shoulder.

-End flashback-

The months after that were hellish, I could barely sleep, me and my wife always would be fighting. It all ended when I told her I would have my revenge, and that I did. The alpha had to watch as I burned his three kids, after that his mate, once I left him for a day, him too. I’ve heard talk about me being crazy, but I’m not, I just want vengeance for my two sons being taken away from me. That’s all I want.
