Fated Enemies

Chapter 30 - Punishment Night

Iron clashing against iron was the main sound in the camp as new weapons were being forged by the smiths the fire burning hot leaving a trail of black smoke. Rufus called a meeting with all his pack members and was waiting to see everyone in front of him, his second in command came closer to him "Everyone is here except for Patricia, no one has seen her since last night when the vampires arrived." he told Rufus on a low voice, almost whispering.

"Which one is Patricia?" Rufus had to ask, in the same tone of voice.

"She was one of the first females to join us, we had much fun with her, it is the one with that mark on her ass."

"Yes, I remember now. You say no one saw since last night, it might be that our new friends found her as amusing as we once did. I'll ask Morgaine once this is finished!" Rufus told the other guy with a smirk, then he looked to his pack and lounged a growl that left them on the ground. "We are close to our objective! Now we let Zulcan know to whom it belongs! We will kill each and everyone who stands in our way! That Queen will serve underneath us like a bitch she is!" The pack members howled in unison. "I want everyone sharp and in full force! I want double shifts around the perimeter, what happened yesterday can't repeat itself. And so I've asked Helior to tell me who has been on guard shift yesterday! If I call your name step forward!" Rufus began, the pack knew that justice would now be served, he took the piece of paper with names written from his second. " Amalia, Zendar, Colior, Tiffany, Dastur, Schirouca, and Patricia, step forward!"

Six people came forward, it was known that if someone didn't comply with this kind of orders, the punishment would be worse and would be for the entire pack "Tell your names and your accusation!" Rufus asked.

"Amalia failed to protect the camp!" begun a small woman, with dark hair.

"Zendar failed to protect the camp."

Each one was replying to the answers, but one person was missing, all pack was frightened for the punishment that Patricia would cause.

"Patricia, where is Patricia?" Rufus asked, but Helior came to him and whispered something into his ear. "Ah right. Forget Patricia, she's serving in another way. You six we'll be tied up to a post, stripped naked, and getting thirty lashes, then left there. Man, feel free to use their bodies as you wish until the sun comes up. Then I want them released, wounds tended and ready to fight, we March to Leonidas Plains tomorrow!"

Tears welled up in Amalia, Zendar, and Tiffany's eyes, they knew what was going to happen to them, once they were whipped. Some lack members came to pick them up, restrained them, and took them to the poles others were arranged in the northern part of the camp.

Once tied to the post, they were stripped of their clothes, Rufus appreciated the women's bodies.

Hearing the commotion, picked the interest in Morgaine, who came to see what was happening, Rufus noticed her and called her closer. "Have you ever saw how werewolves deliver punishment? Sit here, beside me, and enjoy the show!"

Migraine sits where Rufus told her, more out of curiosity than anything else, once Rufus gave the signal, the whipping began, the counting was done out loud, and the screams and whimpers filled the air.

Rufus began stroking his member in front of everyone, and his hand flew to touch Morgaine's legs, she jumped at the touch: "If you like what you have between your legs, never again, touch me! I don't like you, dog."

"Where are your guards?" Rufus asked, still paying attention to what was unfolding in front of him and stroking his member which was beginning to grow showing his excitement. Migraine lost all colors realizing her mistake, once he heard the number thirty, from the man in charge of the whipping, he turned to one of his wolves. "Don't let her leave before I came back!" he told him, pointing to the vampire. "I'll make sure to keep the best for you!"
