Alpha's Obsession

Chapter 1

"Never go out in those woods do you hear me Ella!" My father screamed at me. I don't see what was bad about them. He let me go out to those woods when I was little. Even when he was a hunter. Back then I didn't know how to defend myself. But I do now thanks to my brother.

"Why not? You let me go when I was little!" I argued.

"Because things have changed Ella!!" He spat.

"Yeah, now I know how to defend myself! All I want to do is have some time to myself for God sake!"

"Ella calm down. You know you're not allowed, and you know father isn't going to change his mind about letting you go. So just drop it and hang with your friends or read your books like usual. You don't need the forest." My brother said calmly, placing his hands on my shoulders.

"Eric, you can't let me do something different for a change! I HATE THE BOTH OF YOU! YOU NEVER LET ME DO ANYTHING, YOU NEVER TAKE ME HUNTING WITH YOU!!" I screamed at them.

"Ella, you know-" My father began.

"You take Eric out when he was younger than I am now! So what's the difference? Why won't you let me?" I interrupted. Tears beginning to fill my eyes. I blinked them back.

My brother sighed. He grabbed me and threw me over his shoulder. "Ella, you're so frustrating. Can't you see we're trying to protect you? It's dangerous in the forest. You know that. Remember what happened when you were little?" I said, tightening his grasp on me as I punched his back.

I hated when he brought that up. I always did. I tried to back the tears but couldn't. It was too painful. I still don't understand what happened out there. No matter how many times I pleaded my father to tell me. He just wouldn't.

I was only 5 years old. I was bored out of my mind in the house. It was late. It was the full moon. I remember looking up at it, wishing I could hold it. Wishing I could bathe in it's graceful light that glowed brightly.

I was looking out my window, unable to sleep. I was hypnotized by the moons shine. I saw my mother, frantically leaving the house, sprinting towards the woods.

I didn't hesitate to leave my room and sneak out after my mother, worried. I remember standing in the woods. The moons glow shining on me. The light making my skin glow. It looked magical. I looked magical.

I called for my mother loudly, several times. I didn't receive an answer. I was never one to give up. So I travelled further in to the woods. Calling her. I heard a snap of twigs behind me and spun around expecting it to be my mother.

Instead, a large wolf with white fur and striking green eyes was there. It looked mad. I was scared. Really scared. I started whimpering. Crying. Screaming. The wolf had lunged at me. Attacking me while it's claws and biting at my skin.

I was in excruciating pain. Next thing I know my father is grabbing the wolf. Ripping it from me. He shot it down. After shooting it with three bullets, one in the ribs, another in the leg and the final one between it's eyes.

I screamed in fear. Suddenly, I heard other wolves howling. My father picked me up. He ran. Not like he normally does. He ran for our lives. He held me close, while I was trying to keep hold of what life I had left. I was floating in and out of conciseness.

I remember waking up in hospital. My brother curled in a ball on my fathers lap as he held my hand while sitting in a chair close the bed. They were both sleeping. Again, I couldn't fight back. My eyes felt heavy and I closed them again.

I woke up and it was daytime. My other looking at me with hope in his eyes. A nurse standing beside me. Regret washed over his face immediately. The nurse looked at me scared. Then ran from the room.
