The Feral, Alpha K

TWELVE

My feet felt like weight's anchoring me down to the ground. I wasn't happy to go up there.

Alpha K had stopped walking when he realized I wasn't behind him. I shook my head at him before his eyes skimmed over the room full of men. He wasn't going to leave me down here with them either.

"You're coming with me." He grabbed onto my arm before yanking me forward. Nothing could have prepared me for the gruesome murder scene I had walked into.

Blood was everywhere, furniture was destroyed. My eyes drifted to the children's toys that were scattered all over the floor.

My eyes landed on the mangled lifeless body down the hall, sticking halfway out the bathroom door.

I hunched over as I let out an unsettling gag. I brought my wrist up to my lips in attempt to suppress my stomach. I could feel the Alpha's eyes on me, his annoyance wafting off of him.

"Get her some water." He barked before making his way to the bathroom, the floor creaked under his heavy weight.

I sat on the floor as I kept my eyes trained towards the wood panel's, the floor was clear here no blood in sight. "Here, Lu- I mean here." My eyes shot up to a orange haired man. He seemed young probably a couple years older than me.

I took the glass from him and thanked him. I gulped it down completely before handing it back. "What's your name?" I probed.

"Ezekiel, I'm a pack warrior." I nodded at him as I told him my own name before my eyes drifted to the Alpha who was inspecting the body with a couple other men.

"Where is the child?" I whispered, Alpha turned to me with a pointed gaze. He was hard to read, especially around other people. There had to be a child, the toys were for a young pup.

"Not here." Ezekiel stated, yet this did nothing to subdue my suspicion. "Are you sure, they might be scared. They could be hiding." I pulled myself onto my feet before I began walking through the bedrooms.

All the men side stepped me as if I had the plague, hastily I checked every nook and cranny though I was sure they probably had done it already.

Finally I stood in a child's room. There were two beds, one much bigger than the other. Half the room was pink whilst the other half was blue.

I heard a small whimper causing all my senses to heighten. There wasn't much room in the room, it was pretty small. I glanced under the beds before my eyes landed on a small toy box. A small scent of blood wafting from it.

I held my breath as I placed both hands on the lid. I felt like my heart stop beating as I stared down at a little battered and bruised little boy.

"Are you you ok?" I whispered as I reached for him, he clutched and whined trying to get away from me. "It's ok. I'm not going to hurt you." Slowly he placed his hand in mine before I lifted him out of the trunk.

The men all stared at me with wide eyes as I maneuvered around the mess of toys on the floor.

"Alpha K, the woman found a pup." I ignored the man as I made my way towards the stairs. I needed to get of here, the pup needed help. Alpha K let out a growl causing the child to whimper. My steps halted against the ground as I cooed at the pup.

"Come here." I knew he was talking to me, I took a deep breathe before turning back around and standing before him. I couldn't hide the tears welling in my eyes. Who could do this to a pup? It was sick.

"He's hurt." I sulked as I held him protectively. I was aware his blood was covering me, I probably looked like a wreck.

"Ezekiel, take the boy away." He commanded, I whimpered as Ezekiel slowly took the boy before quickly leaving. My eyes shot up to the Alpha's as I looked at him pleadingly.
