||::Adalwulf's Point of View::||
"I found her!" Ana says happily, clapping her hands and grinning, "She's actually not that far from here. Remember that old sugar mill that closed down a few years after your first shift, Wulf?"
I was frozen. We knew where she was. I knew that place that the back of my hand. When I was in high school, all the wolves used to go there for parties, or to hang out and drink. I'd been there enough times that I knew exactly where everything was.
My Wolf growls, Go!
I nod, more to my Wolf than to Ana, "Ramon!" He runs in, a hopeful look on his face, "Put together as many teams as you can and prepare as quickly as you can. I want to be out here in an hour. No later; if you can make it sooner, it's better."
"We found her?" He asks, a smile coming to his face. It wasn't really for my mate, it was for his. I understood; I honestly did. When I find Ariel, if she's beat up even half as bad as Camelle was, I'm killing them all. He wanted revenge for someone doing that to his Mate, and I was more than happy to let him.
I nod, "We found Prinzessin." He grins, and yells for fighters. I could hear the cries of happiness and relief all through our the building as people came forth to fight for their Luna. I don't know why they were celebrating this soon. She wasn't home yet, but I let them have their moment.
We were getting my Mate back.
-
We decided that we'd just run in our wolf forms, because driving would take a hell of a lot longer. That, and my Wolf was anxious. He was pacing back and forth in my mind as we got everyone together.
They all looked ready to fight, and I had a sense of growing pride in myself at the determined look on my packs' faces. Even that woman who wa looking for her daughter was there. She'd felt a sense of responsibility, even after she'd found Niña in the lake by the pack house.
Once again, I wanted to blame her. If she would've kept a better eye on her child, then my mate wouldn't have gone out in those woods to look for her. But I couldn't blame her. Ariel would not only kick my ass, but I didn't feel like it was actually her fault. It was complete Jonathon's.
I was going to find him, and I'm going to rip him to shreds.
Wulf! Ramon's voice cuts through my thoughts, We're almost there.
Good. I say, then snap the connection closed. I was seeing red, and I wanted Jonathon's blood.
-
We were all fighting. I wasn't aware of any casualties on our side, but I was positive a lot of people were hurt, and bleeding. I cared, and so did my Wolf, but we cared more about Ariel than we did anything else.
Ramon was fighting on side of me, with Alex on the other side. Three wolves with one goal: get to the building.
It took about ten mintues all together for us to actually make it to the building, and that was entirely too long for my Wolf and I. We raced around, and the mintue we got into the building, Ariel's addicting scent hit me full force. Only, it was coming closer.
She's... getting closer. I say to my Beta and best friend in the Link.
How could she be getting closer? Alex comments, I thought she was taken.
Wulf! Ramon says, just as a beautiful scruffy brown wolf charges down the long narrow hallway. The bright hazel eyes I was used to seeing weren't there- in their place was deep black ones. She also had blood on her muzzle.
Ariel's Wolf was in control.
Oh no... Alex murmurs, and Ramon silently agrees with him.
Ariel stops right infront of us, and sniffs the air. Her gaze snaps to mine, and I assumed she'd submit like any other Alpha mate would do, but I should've known different. She was too frightened.
Ariel growls, Get out of the way! She hadn't blocked the Link, so every wolf around us heard, and they all turned to us in surprise. I didn't bother trying to block it.
Ariel- I start, but she cuts me off.
No! She snarls, He'll catch me! I need to get out of here!
You're unstable right now, I say softly, You need to calm down, and Shift back.
She snarls, NO!
I growl, and use my Command on her, Shift. Now.
She lowers her head slightly, but jerks it up a millisecond later, and lets out a whine, turning around. Standing there was a man that could only be Ariel's father, for she snarling at him, but backing up closer to me slowly.
I step infront of her, to shield her from the man.
He chuckles, "Alpha Adalwulf of the Black Clouds pack. Impressive. I'm surprised that whore got an Alpha." A snarl rips through my chest, but I couldn't attack him. If I did, I'd be leaving Ariel by herself. Nevermind the other two. He chuckles, "So, I heard you try to Command her. I'm gonna guess that you didn't know either that she has Alpha blood?"
That catches me by surprise. I turn to look at my beautiful mate. She had Alpha blood? I turn to look back at Jonathan, there was no way. He was a Beta at best. There was no way that he was a Alpha.
I snarl, letting him know I thought it was a lie, and he chuckles, "I guess she didn't tell you that her mother was a whore too. She's not my daughter. She's my fucking niece."
Ariel roars, taking a step forward. You lie! You lie! My mother is not a whore! YOU LIE! She charges. Jonathon snarls, and shifts into a large grey wolf. Before they even make contact, Alex charges forward and pins Jonathon. Ramon pins Ariel the best he can without hurting her. I stalk over to my mate's basturd father, and snarl at him.
No words were spoken, and even though he put up a fight, he was no match for two Alpha's. We killed him quickly.
"Ariel." A voice says, and we all look to see a man with bright blue eyes peering at us. He had a huge chuck of his arm missing, that must be the reason for the blood on Ariel's muzzle. My protective instinct kicks in, and I growl at him warningly, as does Ramon and Alex. He shakes his head, "I'm not here to hurt her. I wouldn't be able to win against three highly skilled warriors with two of then having Alpha blood anyway." He looks past us to Ariel, who was just looking at him with her head cocked to the side. He sighs, "I'm so sorry."
Ariel whines, and does a jerking motion with her head that I think was a nod. He suddenly grins, and then turns on his heel, and disappears.

I decided that having all of the chapters all chopped up like I did before was a pain in the ass. I mean, one minute your reading in Wulf's POV, and the next it's Ariel's. It was confusing.
I won't give you my speech, but comment please!
