Chapter 12

1643 Words
Victor I stood in the tree line masking my scent and presences so these filthy mutts wont sense me. I watched as my sweet Beatrix opened her eyes from the conversation with her wolf. She took a deep breath and closed those violet eyes that I love so much once again. When she closed her eyes you could tell she was focusing on something but I couldn't tell what. Then suddenly the air around her thickened with power. Her eyes snapped open as if something frightened her. Her once beautiful violet eyes are now pure white and her once onyx black hair shifted to the silver color making her look ethereal as it flows and whips around her. Watching in aww of what transpires in front of me I watch as her facial expressions morph from surprise to sadness then finally anger. What could be making her upset? I feel her anger flow around her like a tidal wave. So transfixed on her as her power grows whips around her, I didn't notice that I let my guard slip just slightly. Just enough that one of her little pets notice me. He snaps his eyes from her towards me. Trying to pin point my location but having no luck he focuses his attention back on Min Skatt. Knowing that the guards will be here soon I prepare to flee. But before I can I watch as she drops to her knees. I hear Alpha King Dominic ask if she's okay she only shakes her head as if she's in pain. Clutching her head she begins to weep, another man that I know of as James I believe he's on the council if I'm not wrong. But why would he comfort Min Skatt? What does she mean to him? Lost in my own thoughts I faintly hear the thudding of paws moving towards me. Quickly I stand up on the branch I rested on and made my escape. With my final look over my shoulder I see my sweet Beatrix begin to tell them something but I'm moving to quickly to catch what she said. I made a promise to myself as I fled from the mongrels that chase me now. Just wait Min Skatt I will come back for you. And then me and you will be together forever. No one will have you, you are mine. Solidifying that she will give me the most powerful children that have ever existed when I claim her as my own. Just from the small amount of power that she showed today I know that my sweet mate is powerful and all mine. With a devilish smirk I make my final move to meet my men that lay in wait on the outside of the royal packs bounders. Jumping from the trees I land with grace and begin to move towards my home. "How is the Queen today my King?" Asked my most trusted friend Alfvin. "As perfect as ever old friend." I say with a smile thinkin back to Beatrix. Unlike Alfvin I changed my name when we were turned all those years ago. He was my brother in the sieges our people waged. I would die for him as he would for me. Us being Vikings help solidify our bonds we trained together, we hunted together, we even had our first kill together. Think back to the days when all I cared about was he next village that my people would plunder brought back found memories of battle. Alfvin pulled my from my thoughts "We must go my king the wolves will be here soon." "Of course let us head home." I say agreeing with his choice. Victor, unaware of the rebellion that builds with in his ranks. Not knowing that the one man that he would die for, the only other person he would give up everything for besides Beatrix will be his undoing. Xavier We all focused on Bea while she conversed with her wolf, we waited for her response. You could tell she was fighting with herself to believe what Derrick said. Then suddenly she opened her eyes with a look of determination in them. She looked to all of us then once again closed them and took a deep breath. A sense of calm took over her we could feel her power begin to rise around her then her eyes suddenly snapped open they were pure white, whiter than freshly fallen snow. Her hair changed from her onyx black to moonlight silver showing her powers were at the forefront. I watched in awe and confusion as her power made the air grow thick. It started to get hard to breath but I slowed my breathing so did the others. I look towards James, seeing he holds admiration, love and pride in his eyes. Bringing my focus back to Bea I watch as her face transitions from surprise to sadness and finally anger. But this was different this was unbridled rage, one of protection and loyalty. What could this mean? What could be making her feel like this? When I find out what it is I'll make sure to protect her from it. Suddenly I sense a presence in the trees watching us. Snapping my head towards the trees I try to see if someone is there. You sense that right Jay? Of course. Its one of those vile blood suckers I can feel his blood lust from here. Jay sneered. I cut my link with him and linked Dominic to see how he wanted to handle the situation. Alpha, did you sense that in the trees? I ask Yes, I did I want your top 10 warriors sent in that direction do you understand me. He said in his Alpha command. Yes Alpha! Cutting my link with him I order my top warriors to head towards my location and investigate the vampire I sensed. Pulling my focus back to Bea I notice her eyes are starting to revert back to her natural violet color. When she comes out of the daze she was in I see her drop to her knees. Seeing her grip her head as if something is paining her makes my heart clench. After Dominic asked if she was okay and she began to sob it felt as if my soul would shatter at the sounds of her weeping. I wanted nothing more than to hold her and comfort her but James was faster than me. When she calmed down enough to tell us what caused her so much pain. I felt my rage build in me. Rage for the vampire king coming for her. Rage for her mate being the one to let her be taken by him. Why do I feel like this I don't understand? Because we must protect her she is of great importance. Jay says What do you mean why are you always so mysterious? You will know in time but you will lay your life down for her when the time comes no matter what. Do you understand? I guess. I do I'll just take your cryptic words for now. I agree in defeat. Looking back at Bea in her fathers arms I see her nod her head in agreement to something. Watching as James carries her back inside I think back to the intruder we had. As the thought passed through my head one of my warriors come to me. "It was a vampire sir. We weren't fast enough to catch him but we traced him to the east border." He said. "Good have our best trackers catch their scent. We must keep them away from Beatrix." I say "Yes, sir. I'll get on it right now." With that he bowed his head in respect and ran off in the direction of the other members of the legion. Heading back inside I make my way to Dominic's office. I knock on the large door and wait till I hear "Come in". Opening the door I enter and see Dominic, Marcus, Derrick, Dakota and James all standing around his desk. "It was a vampire. my warriors didn't make it in time to catch them and question them. But I have my best trackers familiarizing themselves with their scent so we can prevent this from happening again." "Good but I want patrols doubled. No triple it. We must keep her safe from him and I know he will stop at nothing till her has her me must start her staring now. And she will be training harder than any other member of the legion do you hear me." He says looking from Dakota to me. "Yes Alpha." We say at the same time. Bowing our heads we exit the office. Heading back towards the training field we walk in silence. Contemplating why he would want her and what his end game is. Looking towards Dakota I sense we were thinking the same thing but we say nothing. When we reach our warriors we inform them of the Alphas orders. They nodded their heads in agreement knowing full well they cant defy him. Making our way around the pack we inform all of our warriors in person of the new security measures that we're taking. I try to think about my task at hand, I'm unable to all that controls my mind is Beatrix and why would he want her. Unable to focus I leave the rest to Dakota. Walking back towards the castle I begin to plan Bea's new training regiment. If I cant get her out of my head then I'll just plan something that has to deal with her. As Xavier made plans for training Beatrix. Another was moving closer towards her it was just a matter of time till his ture feelings are reviled and what they truly mean.
