I growl again and she lets out a faint growl back. I rise and she stands. I snarl, baring my teeth close to her face and she growls back. I start shaking and she turns, running out of the door. I follow right behind her, the rest of the table at our heels. She tries to slam the door on me but I yank it out of her grasp. I launch at her, shifting halfway.
Oh no.
I was now the small snow white, silver eyed wolf from the before. Briar shifts out of fear and I tower over her. "Alexa! Stop!" I hear someone yell and I ignore them. I step closer, my lips curled back in a snarl. Her ears are pressed against her head but she remains growling, still challenging me. I snap my jaws and she trips over herself as she backs up. I am on her in an instant, my jaws snapping at whatever I can get them on. My jaws lock on her cheek and I bite. A loud squeal makes me let go and I leave her on the ground. The snow under her starts turning red and blood drips off my muzzle. Loud whines and howls of pain come from Briar and I turn away from her. I see the crowd that had gathered and fear shines in the eyes of the pack. "Alexa Sinclair, you are removed as Alpha of the Pack." A strong male voice states and I snarl. I shift back and march until I am nose to nose with Dylan and Scott's dad, the Head Enforcer. "You can't take my birthright from me." I growl and he growls louder. "I'm higher in rank than you." He smirks and I laugh. "I'm a direct descendant of Fenrir. Don't use the rank bullshit on me." I snap and his eyes widen. Once those words leave my mouth, that howl starts again. "They're coming!" Dallas yells and the pack looks around in fear. Three wolves burst from the tree line and I shift, running up to meet them. The moment I see the lead one, I falter.
Kyle...
The wolf snarls and leaps at me. I slide under it, wrap my jaws around its throat and jerk my head back, tearing its throat. It rolls in the snow, black goo pouring out.
Males shift! Protect the females!
I yell to the pack and a circle is instantly made around the females. Dallas, River, and Tyler take down the other two. Alek and Ash come to my side and we wait for the next wave. "The northwest border is overrun!" Cash yells as he runs to us, blood pouring out of a gaping wound on his shoulder. "Females, go inside!" Dylan yells and they slowly move back so they can go inside the house. I see Briar up with Elle and Kaye who have a glint in their eye.
I'm sorry Briar. I'm so so sorry.
It's okay. Let's just beat these sons of bitches.
We look at the trees and I see the branches sway. I howl, and the girls turn their heads. A large grizzly bursts out of the trees, a loud roar coming from it. Wolves follow in its wake and I bark. Dallas runs to them with us at his sides. I launch at a smaller, easier looking wolf but I was mistaken.
We roll in a tumble, it's jaws snapping at anything. I cry out when it bites my hip. I kick out and bite its neck. It rolls back and I see Dallas trying to take down the grizzly. It rises and roars at Dallas, who barks at it. I slide past Alek and tear at the grizzly's heel. It roars in pain and drops to all fours, turning around. I move back, it's large black eyes glaring at me with hatred. I look to my side, seeing Ash taking down a wolf identical to him. Alek is fighting a gold wolf. Briar, Elle, and Kaye are fighting against a pair of silver wolves. I back from the bear and Dallas bites its neck. It rises to its back legs and tries to claw him off. I leap at its arm and hold on for dear life. I see black goo gushing out its hamstring. Dallas jumps off and I follow his lead. The grizzly roars and the wolves jerk to a stop. They run off and a large bloodied wolf launches at me. I roll with the impact, snapping at anything. I bite at an opened wound and it howls. I push off it and stand up. I spat and see blood not black goo. The wolf stands again and snarls. I back away, my body shaking. Ash growls at it and I nip his ear. I shake my head and walk away, my head lowered. The wolf growls and comes at me again. I sniff and realize it was Colin, the Head Enforcer. I roll under him and I see Dylan and Scott on the sides. I back away from Colin and he barks a laugh.
The great Alpha has backed away from a challenge.
I'm doing the right thing by not killing you.
Lies! You're just a scared little girl!
My mind flashes back to when Alpha Donati told me the same thing. I leap at him and my jaws almost wrap around his neck, but Alek pushes me before I could bite. I roll and he keeps me pinned down. I try to get free, but he is heavier than I am. I writhe around, growling and kicking. Colin stays panting on the ground from when I knocked him down. Alek growls at me and forces me to look into his blue eyes.
Calm down. You're okay.
He challenged me!
You don't need to fight to prove something.
He called me a scared little girl, Alek! I've been called that before.
By who?
Alpha Dante Donati.
I look up, hearing shoes stepping on the snow. "Darling Alexa, is this a bad time?"
