Demon Wolf

I made changes with the last chapter. Please read it again before reading this.

~~

I woke up from the strange dream, the blurry image inside my head slowly fading away as I blinked my eyes to clear the haziness. It was dark, no source of light, it feels like I was still in a dream as I let my eyes roam around the darkness but I realized it was no dream when I tried to move. The burning pain erupted in my whole body and I let out a whimper, tears immediately formed at the corners of my eyes and they poured freely down my face. I did not stop it, I let myself cry as my body feels the pain. 

There's nothing I can do anymore, I have no idea where I am, and I can finally feel it, the sweet lullaby of death whispering sweet bitterness in me. I can feel my life slowly and painfully drifting away from me. I did not dare to move from my uncomfortable position because I don't wanna add anymore pain in myself. I don't know that it was with the darkness that always pulls me deep within its abyss, it feels strangely comfortable, like I belong. Like darkness was my home that always wants me to stay inside it, it feels like two arms opening and motioning me to take and embrace it and I did.

And I know I died.

Again.

~~~~
Xander felt it again, the same excruciating pain he felt not too long ago, it was the very same pain that got him thinking of his mate. He knew something happened to her again but there's nothing he can do for her anymore, she's gone.

It was the pain that woke him up from a deep dreamless sleep.

And he remembered everything.

Rejection.

Chasing.

And rouges.

And he knew something's gone terribly wrong.

~~~~~

Ares had to check the girl, he knew something's not right the moment he opened his eyes, he sighed and mind linked Leean for update on the girl's status. "How is she?" He asked. "I haven't checked in her since I put her there Ares." Leean replied to his Alpha.

Ares shook his head and rub his face in frustration "Check her." He commanded and Leean immediately scrambled to his feet, put some clothes on and rushed towards the dungeons but not before his eyes caught the glimpse of a clock telling him it was 3:19 in the morning.

What was wrong with Ares, Leean thought as he walk. What has gotten into his mind in the middle of the night to wake him up just tp tell him to check on the girl who he insisted to be imprisoned.

He understands his Alpha but can't he see the girl? She's so weak and fragile, she could break even from the tiniest move she made with her current state. What happened to her? She was so beat up and the wound on her chest? Who would do such a thing? The girl is clearly running from someone, but who?

Someone must've wanted her dead. But why? Is she a traitor?

Leean shook his head to clear his thoughts. He reach the entrance of the dungeons and threw the door open with a bang. It was dark, cold and smelled of death. He switched the lights on and the dimmed light illuminated the place.

He made his way to the fourth where he placed her, it was the most decent one at the moment but still...

His footsteps echoing throughout the place, the only sound he could hear. The place smelled of blood, not that's it's new but this particular smell made him panic and quickened his steps. When he reached her cell he found he lying on the floor still with the same position, her back was to him.

He was about to leave when something pulled him to her, like an invisible force telling him to go near her.

And he did.

He opened her cell as quietly as he could so that he won't disturb her. She was lying in an odd uncomfortable position, he silently walked towards her. The stench of blood almost made him gag, he frowned the smell was not supposed to be this strong, the last wolf they tortured was two weeks ago.

And then he saw it.

Her own blood soaking her.

"Alpha." He called Ares through mind link.

"What is it?" He can hear his Alpha's exhaustion through the link but he paid no attention to it.

"She's....dead."

~~~~~

'You're not supposed to be here my love' he said while gently stroking my hair.

'I told you I'll be back right?' I smiled up at him but he frowned at me. 'Why? What's wrong?' I asked sitting and turning to look at him. He shook his head and I can see confusion clouding his eyes. 'It's not the right time.' He said looking down. 'Look at me my love, I'm here now. I'm not going away anymore.' I said while moving my body closer to his and holding his face with both of my hands, lifting his head so that he can look into my eyes and see my happiness that we're finally together again. 'I'm finally with you.' I said again before gently placing my lips against his.

'You need to go back.' He said but I can see the pain in his eyes as he said that.

'But I don't wanna go back.' Tears stung my eyes as I realized he made his decision.

'You need to love, it's not the right time.' He wiped my cheeks with his thumbs. Raw pain clear in his eyes as he leaned his forehead in mine. 'I will wait.' He said kissing the top of my head, then both of my eyes and cheeks and nose and jaw and finally placing his lips against mine in bittersweet kiss before he stood up from the bed and walk towards the darkness but not before looking back at me with tears running down his own face, a pained smile in his lips as he waved goodbye. I scrambled to my feet, sheets tangled in my body and I hastily throw it. I called out his name and desperately ran to him but I'm always too late.

Because he disappeared before I reach him.

There's no turning back, the demon is within it's wake.
