The Breeders

Chapter 18 At Odds

~Elara~

No! There would be no way any human or anything that would ever take my Mimas from me. These men would pay dearly for their mistake!

The men all walked in with their usual weapons and armor ready for the fight. Many stood in formation organizing and some men barked orders. Before I was not much of a fighter, but after that she wolf I knew I could take them. My courage to fight grew with each step they took further into their doom. My thoughts were slowly becoming those of my beast within. All of this was because of my black wolf he had changed me and I was not sure if it was for the better.

As the doors began to close I Jumped out growling and baring my teeth, causing a commotion amongst them. Some ran away towards the gate begging to be let out while others advanced. My old keeper stepped out with a smile on his face, the taser rod I knew all too well in his hand.

"I know her, she won't put up much of a fight, she was always the runt." He laughed out. "Probably scared of her own shadow."

What he would soon find out is that I was no longer the same little runt he used to push around. His overconfidence would be his downfall.

"You sure about that?" One asked.

"Yeah you'll see."

The men advanced closer readying their weapons pointing them at me and that's when my beast took over. I jumped forward taking one man in my jaws crushing him and clawed other men that came too close. The taste of blood aiding me on in my rage as the taste for blood grew. It was a strange feeling that I was acting on actions given by someone else, and not being able to stop it. Like having a string tied to my limbs and some else guiding it.

Avoiding the electric rods and guns were harder than I expected it to be. One hit my hind leg causing a surge to go through me in waves I yelped turning on the rod and the holder. Another came to assist him but I clawed his chest.

"Just a runt my ass." The guard from a distance said.

The keeper grabbed for his gun knowing that he had made a mistake. "Just capture her and get her out the way so that we can get that damned wolf."

It angered me more that they actually thought they would be making it out of here alive. They would pay for ever stepping foot in here. My blood boiled over my anger trying to escape all at once. The keeper shot at me landing a blow sending currents ripping through my body. More followed suit making it hard to control my body, but my beast would not stop. She kept on. Ripping keepers and guards apart and biting clawing anything to put them down. There were only a handful left, the rest had run out shouting while the majority lay on the floor. Most of them were alive but injured to the point they could not move.

The gates began to open showing more men ready to join the fight. There were too many of them but my beast refused to give up the fight. They shot at me from a distance and one clipped my front leg causing me to howl out in pain. Soon after my howl a loud roar could be heard in the distance from Mimas and his thunderous approach. They still advanced onto me trying to subdue me before he made it here. I kept fighting on despite my hurt leg but the men were becoming too much. Currents through my body became stronger and my vision was becoming blurry, yet my beast fought on.

Mimas broke through the trees, his gaze fell upon me, his anger clear and I knew I would suffer his rage later. His eyes turned red and body glowed blue, the light swirling around him violently. It was nothing that I've ever seen and clearly I did not know his anger before but I knew now. The men all talked amongst themselves starting to retreat back, others stood in amazement.

"This wolf is no ordinary wolf."

"Run, retreat!" The men yelled frantically sprinting to the exit.

From that point on I knew they were all doomed and no one could be left alive. They now knew he was more than what they thought. Mimas moved with such speed that I could not even keep up with him. Wherever he went the men fell to the ground lifeless, not one seemed to escape his eye. My beast was in awe and could not move, everything that it was feeling overwhelmed me. The amount of emotion it held for Mimas was something beyond what I could ever feel.

When he had finished annihilating everything in his path he turned towards me. Blue light still swirls around him as he makes his way towards me. My beast is filled with glee but I can't help but wonder if he would turn his rage towards me. I wanted to cower away from him to run away in fear that he would tear me apart.

A Part of me knew that I was in no danger and that I should just stay and wait. My beast seemed to calm and I was able to have more control over my actions. Without a thought I sprinted off running into the forest as far as my legs could carry me. I dodged branches and fallen down trees skillfully avoiding them.

Foot steps urged me onward to push harder and faster than my legs could ever carry me. Using smaller, more dense forest to lose him and to not be captured. Yet I could still feel him behind me closer than before I could feel his amusement. He wanted the chase and enjoyed the fact that I ran from him.

'Ran all you want, you are mine!' His voice boomed before a large shadow appeared over me.

We rolled on the forest floor and I immediately cowered away watching his every move as we circled eyeing each other. His blue light was still there and his red eyes glowed, he growled in anger baring his teeth at me.

'Will you submit to me or run?'

I wanted to submit but I was afraid of the glowing lights that seemed to get brighter. We continued to circle until he jumped after me and I darted away from him.

'Are you going to hurt me?' I asked.

'You're his mate I would never hurt you, much.' The beast responded.

Now I knew for sure my instinct was right to run away, he was not in control. What scared me the most was that my own beast did nothing, not even a response or emotion. There was not an ounce of confidence that he would not hurt me.

Darting in the forest again I made sure to be more careful and to not be caught again. I was going up against not only a Royal but his beast that had taken control. There was no telling what he would do to me or that I would survive. Those tales of the Royals Mates dying by their own hands was very real, and I intended not to be one of them.

Every inch of my body ached and my injured leg begged me to stop, I had been running for miles and still he was right there at my tail. Despite going to a more concentrated forest he still found a way to break through them all. He had been toying with me for a while knowing that he could take me anytime he wanted. Pulling back giving me more space giving me the illusion that I had gotten away only to show up on my heels.

There was a loud roar and then he appeared in front of me causing me to let out a yelp. I skidded to a halt cowering into a small ball panting for air too exhausted to run anymore. The blue light was still swirling around his large body as he stood over me his teeth bared. I attempted to mind link him to reach my black wolf pleading for him to stop and that I was afraid. The beast only looked down with his red eyes glowing brighter and there was no reply.

'He is not here.' His reply sent chills down my spine and my fear grew as I whimpered.

Blue light surrounded me and got brighter as I looked into his eyes. His jaw opened his canines ready to devour me as I yelped into the air.
