The Half-Blood Alpha

Chapter 23

I followed Axel into a huge house. We were moving in to it. Axel had finally decided to move out of his parents house. I grinned at him excited. He just smirked at me. A thought popped into my head suddenly.

"Hey Axel how come we haven't gone to school lately?" I asked him.

He shrugged. "Can't be bothered. Who cares anyway? It was out last year of school either way it's not like we missed much,"

I nodded. I followed Axel inside. The house was huge, two stories just like his parents house. I ran up the wooden spiral staircase looking in each room. I was acting like a little kid but I didn't care.

I ran back down to Axel who was standing. My grin disappeared when I saw the shock on his face. I could tell he was mind linking with someone.

"What is it?" I asked. "What's going on?"

Axel gritted his teeth. "Derek is acting. Right now,"

"What?!" I cried. "Why!?"

"Apparently it's revenge for us freeing Will," Axel growled. "Derek is an idiot,"

"I want to help," I told him.

"No," Axel said adamantly. "I've called Storm and Deirdre and they are going to stay with you here, no one is leaving this house,"

"That's not fair!" I cried.

"Don't argue with me Hanna," Axel growled. "This isn't up for discussion. Your wolf is smaller then normal and I don't want you to get hurt,"

His words hurt. My wolf was angry at him. Axel left as soon as Storm and Deirdre got here. Storm sat on the couch.

"This isn't fair!" I complained. "I want to fight,"

"Luna no one wants you to get hurt," Deirdre told me. "This is to protect you,"

"I knew this would happen," Storm smirked. "Which is why I said I'd come here. Hanna I have no intention of sitting around here and if you want to come with me you can come,"

Deirdre faced her. "No. If you two leave I can get a group of wolves here in second,"

"Then I'll just get my brother to move them," Storm grinned.

"I'm not getting my butt kicked!" Deirdre snapped. "Axel will kill me!"

"Well then Will can help you," Storm's grin grew wider.

"Fine," Deirdre muttered.

I couldn't keep a smile off my face. We sneak out the back door and raced towards the fight. We kept hidden. I could hear the snarls and growls and shrieks of wolves. A group of wolves from Red Moon pack raced forward and attacked us. Storm shifted tearing them apart. Deirdre did too not letting a single wolf come near me.

That was fun. Storm said to me through the mind link.

I didn't know you could mind link!

Yeah well I joined your pack so I can.

We kept going. I shifted and followed them. Storm's wolf was bigger then both Deirdre's and mine. My wolf was smaller then both of theirs. It seemed strange considering I had Alpha blood.

Deirdre his us behind a group of trees and disappeared before coming back with a bag of clothes. We all shifted back changing into them.

"My my, I didn't think Axel was stupid enough to leave his mate alone with a rogue and a pup,"

We turned around to see Derek and his third in command standing in front of us. Deirdre shifted blocking me from sight.

"I'm going to kill all of you no matter how much you tried," Derek snapped.

The guy beside him shifted attacking Deirdre and they both were slowly trying to kill the other. Derek smirked.

"You can't both take me on!" Derek laughed.

Without warning Derek shifted and leapt at me. Storm pushed her behind me.

"NO!" I screamed.

Derek's teeth sank into Storm's stomach and she collapsed almost instantly. Derek stood over her ready to kill her. Before he could a huge dark brown wolf slammed into Derek and started attacking him.

The wolf was bigger then even Axel's and it took me a second to realise it was Will. He barely got a chance to attack Derek before ten Red Moon wolves jumped on him trying to protect their Alpha. By the time they were dead Derek had disappeared. Will's wolf went behind a tree and when he came back he was only wearing a pair of shorts.

I had never seen someone look so angry. Axel walked over and held me tight.

"What the hell happened!" Will growled.

I couldn't bring myself to answer him. It was my fault Storm was bleeding to death. Deirdre answered instead.

"We came out here to fight," Deirdre explained. "We shouldn't have but they wanted to. Derek attacked and..."

"He jumped at me but Storm pushed me away," I finished.

"We have to get her to the pack doctor," Axel said.

I had never felt so guilty.
