Book 8: King Demitri

Chapter 17: I'm Ok

Gwen's p.o.v

Another Pack warrior is dead. Onto the next one.

I jump at a warrior at the same time he jumps at me. I land a scratch to his face but his head rams into my stomach. I land on my back but quickly jump back up and attack him again. I land on his back but I feel a strong force push me off him. I look up to see a large black wolf.

Chris. The alpha of the warrior pack.

I growl at him and he howls. Everything in the room stops. All the fighting stops. I think I even saw a guy stop mid jump.

He shifts back and Demitri runs towards me. A blonde she wolf growls at the human Demitri and he stops in his tracks.

"Shift you rouge."

Chris orders me and i shift back. He pulls me up and holds a knife to my neck. The she wolf shifts back and Bella stands up.

"Now, now Demitri. We don't want anything to happen to your mate now do we."

Chris taunts and Demitri growls. Elliott and Smith are at his sides in wolf form in seconds. They are in the attack position.

"Stand down Eli, Smith"

Demitri orders and both men sit. They glare at Chris and Bella.

"What do you want?"

Demitri asks Chris as he holds the knife to my neck. I don't struggle because that will only get me killed. Demitri's eyes never stray from mine.

"Your surrender."

Chris tells him but Demitri looks behind me. His eyes glaze over so fast that I barely caught it.

"Nah I think I'm good."

He says and everyone gasps. What?! Is he crazy!?

"Demitri what are you-"

"Shut it!"

Bella screams at me as she slaps my face. Demitri growls and I'm forced out of Chris's hold. I look up to see a black wolf.

"Olly!"

I yell as I hug his neck. He nuzzles me and I look back to see Lancelot and Peter holding Chris and Cammy and Havik holding Bella. All of the warriors are running away.

"Get her out of here Oliver!"

Demitri yells and I climb onto Oliver's back. He runs further into the castle as the screams of Bella and Chris fill my ears.

"Are you alright?"

Oliver asks me as he shifts back into his human form. We are inside Mine and Demitri's bedroom waiting for him to come up.

"I- I-"

I try to speak but Oliver just shushes me. I look into his blue eyes and he looks into my brownish grey ones.

"Your in shock. Also do you have any cloths I could borrow?"

He asks me and I smile. I nod and walk into the closet and grab a black tee shirt and green cargo shorts. I don't think Demitri will mind. I toss them to Olly and he goes and gets dressed. I sit on the end of the bed as the bedroom door opens.

Demitri walks in and he looks horrible. His blonde hair was blood in it, his usually smooth skin has cuts and bruises on it. But a smile rests on his lips. I fare no better though. I have cuts and bruises all over me and I bet my hair is a mess.

"I couldn't loose you."

He spoke softly to me as tears brimmed his eyes. I carefully hug him and he hugs me back. I breath in his wonderful scent as I hear the closet door close.

"I guess I'll be leaving you two now. See you at dinner."

Oliver says as he walks past us. I pull away from Demitri and press my lips against his.

"We need a shower."

I tell him and he nods. Demitri takes my hand in his and leads me to the bathroom.

I take a deep breath as he starts the shower. Here we go. Taking a shower with my mate. What could go wrong?
