*Arianna*
As we went back to the pack territory, an eerie silence fell upon the tense atmosphere. I was finally reunited with a friend and she was killed, by her own pack. I scrunched my eyebrows in confusion.

"Wait, Theo, Olivia was a werewolf?" He stopped beside me.

"You didn't know that?" I shook my head.
"Well then, yeah, she is. In fact, she was the beta's daughter."

"Why did they kill her?" My voice was barely audible and cracked at the end.
"Look, don't cry. C'mon, there's no need for that. God, how do parents do this?"

He wrapped his arms around my shoulder.
"Your consoling sucks." A laugh escaped my lips.

"Well, that ain't my job." I was about to reply when I heard rustling in the nearby bushes. My breath picked up as my heart was pounding against my rib cage. I screamed as a squirrel jumped out.

"AHHH!" Burying my head into his chest, I heard Theo laughing.

"It's just a squirrel."

"Huh?" I glared at him and continued walking, leaving him behind.

At the pack house, we were greeted by ashes of burnt wood and brick. Caven ran up to us.
"Theo, man, the pack was attacked while you gone."

"We were gone 20 minutes."
"No shit, sherlock." While Theo and Caven bickered like an old couple, I snuck past them to the woods. I wondered where Trayton was. Was he okay? Or hurt? Or even alive? A twig snapping brought me back to earth.

"H-hello?" Another snap.

"Who's there?" Snap.

"Show yourself!" Suddenly, I felt a warm breath on the back of my neck.

"Boo," an unfamiliar voice lowly whispered. Wolves appeared out of no where, now surrounding me. Taking my chances, I pushed the man behind me and sprinted.

"Theo!" Howls were heard close behind.

"Trayton!" My clumsy self tripped over a tree root sticking out of the ground.

"Theo!" I cried. The man from before appeared in front of me.

"That wasn't so smart." Venom laced his words. Hot tears streamed down my face. This was it. I was going to die. I squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the pain. But it never came. I slowly peeled my eyes open to see Theo fighting the wolves.

"Theo!" He looked to me as if saying run, so I did. I sprinted in the direction I came from. As soon as I saw Caven, I blacked out.

I woke up to someone stroking my hair. Where was I? I wasn't wearing the same clothes as before and I was in a bed.
"Oh, you're awake." A deep voice from behind me stated.

"Where's Trayton?"
"I'm right here." I snapped my head in the direction his voice came from.
"I heard what happened."
"Yeah...." I trailed off.
"Revenge."

"What?"

"Ari, we need revenge. We can't just let them think they can attack you and get away with it."

"Trayton, that won't be necessary." This time, it was Theo who spoke up.

"Fine, if you won't help me, I'll take down the alpha on my own."

"No, Trayton please don't." He shook his head.
"I'll see you later, Ari." He flashed me a grin before he left.

"Arianna, you need rest. Don't worry about Trayton. He'll be fine." I mumbled an okay and lied down. Trayton better be back soon.
Theo saw my worry and said, "Remember, Trayton is my brother, I know him well enough and he's strong. He would easily beat Vincent in a one on one fight." I tried to sleep my concern away. I was a bit more relaxed after Theo said that.

*Trayton*

"I'll see you later, Ari." I ran out as fast as I could to the Lost Shadows' territory without getting too tired. I needed my energy to fight the savage wolves who dared to attack my mate. I entered the enemy pack's territory and sniffed my way to their camp. I was immediately confronted by the Lost Shadows. Vincent squeezed out of the group and walked around me.

"What do you think you're doing here, Silver Blood?" He snarled.

He continued, "I suppose you found out about our plan. So, if you want, we can have an easy one on one." I turned into my werewolf and leaped at him. I pinned him down to the ground and started ripping him apart for attempting to kill Arianna. I had managed to give him enough wounds, but then, I saw Vincent shake his head towards me, and before I had the chance to react, the rest of the Lost Shadow pack had grabbed me by my arms and legs and had pushed me into the ground.

Vincent got up and he turned his his werewolf form. His claws got longer, and he walked up to me. After my running here and using all my energy to kick his ass, I was too tired stay in my werewolf form. In my normal human body, my body is less durable than my werewolf form. Vincent walked around and then he started laughing.

"I've known Theo for a long time, and I'm pretty sure he must have warned you not to do something as stupid as this. But now, you will regret ever facing me." He ripped open my stomach, and spread my spilling blood around. After having enough fun, he pulled my throat out. My blood was welling in where my throat used to be. I was slowly losing blood and dying. I felt a weight lifted off my arms and legs. I closed my eyes and heard the Lost Shadows' victory howl.
