The Warrior Within

Gold Cage

Ares Perspective:

    I was glaring at Castien for who knows how long, feeling as if my eyes would pop out of my sockets at any time. He still had that little smirk across his face, as if he knew he was going to win this little ultimatum that he had made and everything was going to go in his favor, but no way was I going to let that just happen.

"What happened to him while I was away, tell me everything."

I was trying to speak calmly and not with a growl, but my wolf was failing me badly, still the smirk wasn't wiped off his face. He removed his hand from the cage and stood there for a while, as if he was considering what i had said, but I was getting an answer whether he wanted to give me one or not. 

He moved slightly to his chair, before gesturing for me to sit down with a wave of his hand. I glared at him but slowly walked backwards to my chair, making sure he didn't try anything suspicious with my back turned. 

Finally we both sat down and he folded his legs over, setting his hand on his hands. 

"This story will take quite some time dear brother, but as you asked, I will tell you everything before we begin our little ultimatum."

With a wave of his hand, everything that had happened to Leo and me flashed before my eyes.

Leo's perspective:

     I had passed out a while ago and regained consciousness a few minutes ago. I was being wheeled around in a cart that had a blanket over it. My head was pounding and my body wouldn't even move, from how my body felt, I could tell I was in wolf form.

The cart hit a sharp corner and I was banged into the side of the cart. 

"What is wrong with you, you can't just wheel it around like that."

My ears began to move at the voice, it didn't sound familiar at all and I began to get scared, wishing that Ares was with me so bad. 

"Be more careful and put him in room 3-D, white will talk with him soon."

I was again being moved but only for a short matter of time, the blanket was soon thrown off but I couldn't see anything. A door slammed shut and I yelped, almost hitting the top of the cage.

There was no sound in the room, and as far as I could tell, no source of natural light. I was in a cave though, telling by how the wall looked and the cracks in the ceiling, clearly used to be sky lights but covered up. 

Trying to move around, I was able to shuffle my way around my body, I was a big wolf but the cage was just big enough for me to twist around. Looking backwards, I realized the room was bigger than I had expected, and there seemed to be two red eyes staring back at me. 

I immediately froze, not knowing who those eyes belonged to or if they could see me. I know for a future alpha I get scared pretty easily. You'd be scared too if there were two gigantic wolf eyes staring back at you like you were some kind of food.

I continued to stare at the pair of eyes until they suddenly vanished, making me yelp and hit the back of my cage. 

"You are a very rare wolf, did you know that?"

I jumped again as the voice echoed through the entire room, confusing me about where it was coming from. Those eyes definitely belonged to someone else.

"I had thought you'd be mateless of course but then he came around, we had a plan for you and everything."

My body shuddered at those words and I knew good things would not have come out of me being without Ares.
