Bite Me

Chapter 1

This book is going to be short and sweet ;) (I think).

~~~~~~~~~~

Watch out Conner!

Upon hearing his Alpha's warning, the third in command turned and dropped a kick on an oncoming wolf just in time to block the jaws of the wolf. Even when the oncoming wolf was blocked before he could tear a chunk from his neck, it still managed to bite his arm pretty hard and deep.

The Deltaside Pride was outnumbered by about 5 to 1. There were seven felines fighting against two dozen wolves. But seeing his wound, Reeve still ordered Conner to go back to the pride house.

But I can still help Alpha! Reeve heard Conner say through the pride link.

Reeve knew that Conner was still strong enough to still help fight but at what cost? If Conner wasn't healed soon, he would bleed out.

Normally, Reeve would order Oria to heal him but the lioness was currently fighting four females. Stopping to heal him would be like asking for a break to get a cup of coffee.

Go help Jaxi, Reeve replied. Jaxi was the strongest female in the whole pride. She wasn't particularly happy when Reeve ordered her to stay with children and the weak.

The Pride house was too far away for Reeve to get a good reading on her, but after reaching out as far as he could, Reeve sensed some distress.

Shit! Some wolves must have gotten past their line of defense.

GO Conner! He roars, anxious to know how many wolves were at the pride house and if Jaxi would be able to protect everyone by her self.

Conner didn't protest after hearing the urgency in his Alpha's voice.

Once the third in command was out of sight and on his way to the pride house, Reeve grabbed the wolf that Conner had kicked by the neck and threw him at the nearest tree. He turned and jumped on the wolf nearest to him, digging his claws into the fur before sinking his long fangs on the wolf's face.

Reeve turned to Theo and Oria. Oria had eliminated her wolves and had moved onto a new batch of wolves but Theo was younger, and more likely to get hurt. Theo jumped on a wolf that was circling Oria, who was absorbed in fighting two female wolves. Theo's claws hooked onto the male wolf's legs and his fangs descended onto his neck, leaving a deep mark and a limp body.

Moving his gaze around to observe other members of his pride, Reeve saw that his pride wasn't as outnumbered as they were before. Reeve had killed at least ten wolves.

His gaze landed on Dante, his fierce Beta. Dante was a huge panther. Most of the wolves seemed to be avoiding him or going at him in large groups. But the panther was killing a wolf every ten seconds.

They were gonna win.

At least that's what Reeve thought until they lost everything.

In the distance, Conner let out a gut-clenching roar that made everyone stop and turn to where the sound came from. With some effort, Reeve pushed through the pride link, and asked his third in command, What's wrong?

Conner replayed the images in front of him.

Fire. The whole house was consumed in a deadly fire. All the doors and windows were shut and bolted with wood from the outside. And no crying or screams were heard from the inside.

Their pride members were all already dead.

Conner let out a loud curse.
