I drove to the next pack over. They wanted to discuss some things about an unclaimed piece of land between us and I really had no purpose for it. And my territory was big enough anyways. I'll probably just give it up and be on my merry way. I assume other packs might be there so that might be the only hassle. Once I made it something snapped in me.
Something just didn't feel right to me. Like it hurt in a way, but only a small headache. I felt uncomfortable and sweaty. I pushed it aside as just seasonal allergies and continued on my way to the pack house. I got to the meeting and they started right away. Everyone showed up on time and we began discussing who wanted the land and there purpose for it. "I think we should get the land because I need more space for the children. Our daycare is small as it is and we need more area for them to be active in general." One alpha argued. I wasn't the to be honest I had no clue why I was here anyways, I'm only the soon to be Alpha not the actual one. They excepted me nonetheless and I knew what I was doing.
Flash forward, it's been three day's, and the group still hasn't come up with an answer to who gets the land. "I think we deserve the land because we have no space for elderly to retire and rest." One alpha added on. That was a horrible reason. Elderly don't really need much. "Give us the land. We have no where for the teens and young adults to spend time or relax. They have no where to party or hang out with friends." Another soon to be alpha argued his point. He had something going for him being a young adult himself.
Another day had passed. It's been five days in total. Five days away from my Quinn. I can't wait to go home. At this point I just felt sick. In every level. Taking a step burned. I have no clue if this is mate, werewolf stuff. My mate is a vampire so if she was in pain it wouldn't be the same thing. My head my throbbing, I was dripping with sweat, my face was flushed, my cheeks are bright red, and I felt incredibly sore. My ankles and wrists felt heavy. My mouth felt sticky. It was the weirdest thing and I was honestly scared.
"Ok the final decision. We'll be giving the land to Alpha Arthur of the Scarred Paw pack. He included reasoning for the area to be used for children and exercising. Does anyone object?" The alpha of the pack we had settled in for the meetings asked. Looking clearly exhausted. Everyone silently nodded. My head slowly fell. I got no sleep last night and I was extremely exhausted. We finally came to a decision. Everyone packed up and got ready to leave. I already was out of the room. I need to get home. I've been away for to long and I need to see my Quinn again.
I pulled up in the driveway. I walked in the front door and looked around suspiciously. "Quinn I'm home!" I yelled out hoping that got her attention and she would run to me and we would hug for an hour. Well waddle to me. Nothing happened. I took a deep breath, trying to calm down my worrying and suspicions. Also an excuse to find her scent and track her down by that. No scent at all. I started to freak out now. "Quinn!!" I screamed, running around the entire house trying to find her.
Then I made my way to the stairs. A strong toxic smell wafted towards me. Then I saw her. Lying sprawled out on the top of the stairs. Her hair was sticking to her face from the sweat. Her face looked purple with a hint of green. She looked so skinny compared to the last time I saw her. Her eyes were blank and white as the rolled to the back of her head. Bruising o. Her wrists, ankles, and a tape stuck to one side of her mouth. I reached down and picked up her head.
"No. No! Noooo!!!!! Quinn come on, stay with me!!!" I screamed lifting her up ask sprinting towards the hospital.

It's been.... actually I don't know how long I've been down here. The days blurred together. I couldn't think much anyways. The only thought on my mind this entire time was protecting my babies. Every passing moment it seemed as if the vervain was getting closer and closer to me. I couldn't even see at this point. My entire eyesight was a blur. I tried to sleep or even relax a little. Then my head would pound and heat waves would wash over me. The blood drive grew. Every time Copper walked by I grew more and more feral. Just imagining latching on to one of his veins and drinking until I was satisfied. Or even a blood bag. Copper would place a bag in front of me or bite a small wound into his arm and torture me with it. Tease me. I needed blood soon. At some point there may be no return.
My vision was almost black at this point and a loud ringing had filled my ears. I could feel someone by me. A soft murmur from them. Then another silhouette walked by. They stood next to who I assume is Copper. I listened to them go back and forth before one key event. The second silhouette shot Copper. Copper was dead. Dead dead. After that gun shot I could kinda hear a little better. "O my g h l t me g t ou ut of re." I heard scrambled up. I literally was brain dead and could not come up or guess what that meant.
All of a sudden my wrists fell to the side of the chair and my ankles twisted down. I could breath better from my mouth now to. A couple seconds later I was moved away from the vervain. Then the silhouette left. And I was left alone again. I stayed like that for a little, building up the strength to make my way out of here. I continued to overly blink. Trying to clear my vision in a way. Then after I had some eyesight back I stood up and looked for a door or stairs. To my luck a case of stairs were about ten feet away from me.
Every step felt like walking on legos with thumbtacks embedded into them. I got up the steps before I crashed. I had used up all my energy to protect my kids through that all and push myself to escape. That was all I needed for now. I laid down on the ground and hoped someone would find me. Then I heard him.
Axton.
He was home!
I went to move using my last bit of strength before I completed blacked out. My eyes rolled to the back of my head.
"Stay with me!!!!!" Was all I heard before I was thrown into the darkness. __________________________________ 1214 words
