A hell of war

4999 Words
Alex pov ** After Caliana left with the girls to change clothes, Ryan and Carlos and I started talking with the members of the pack.Normally we don't always manage to communicate with everyone and now that everyone is present at the party it's a good time to listen to everyone and answer their questions.I was talking to one of the warriors when I saw Marco approaching me. I was shocked when I found out that he is actually my twin brother but even though we knew each other when we were little we never got along. I remember when I was six years old and Marco came to visit us with his friends, always arguing for toys or food, if I had something new and he wanted the same thing. It was a pain in the ass since he was a small child. I was always available to overcome our misunderstandings and form a closer relationship but I never saw him want this .. in a way it's better to leave things as they were meant to be. I've never tried to approach him when I saw that he doesn't show interest and now that I know he's my brother ..well I don't feel this connection that we are brothers anymore. -Hey Alpha Alex, I just wanted to congratulate you! I hope that in the future we will get along well! -Hey Marco! I appreciate it, thank you ... let's hope we don't have any problems. I told him and then I shook his hand and continued my conversation with the members of the pack.I felt Marco looking at me from time to time ... I couldn't believe how different we can be, from my point of view we don't even look like twin brothers. It's been more than half an hour and Caliana and the girls haven't returned yet ..I wonder what's taking them so long .. -Ryan do you know anything about Ellie or the girls? we asked him as we sat down at the table next to the bar. -Nope .. I tried to mind link her but nothing. I wonder what the hell these girls are doing that don't show up at all. I take a sip of beer when suddenly I hear gunshots. What the hell? I looked at Ryan puzzled not knowing what was happening when I began to hear in my head Caliana’s voice "Attention everyone, we are under attack! Please follow the procedures in case of emergencies and stay safe. All unnecessary staff will go to the underground shelters together with women, children and the elderly! Everyone else who does not fit in will Please go to the armory and arm yourself! May the Moon Goddess be with us! " Carlos had already run to us, gesturing and talking so fast that I couldn't understand anything -You need to come, attack us, we are surrounded, we have to fight! He was no longer speaking coherently at the moment, but all I understood from what he said was that "We are surrounded."I tried to link Caliana but nothing, it was all empty like when the radio signal fails. I need to know that she is safe, while we signal to everyone to go to the shelter, Caliana's uncle came to help me with Marco by his side. -Caliana stayed with Helena in the house, rogues and two demons are inside. We need to take people to shelter who are in greater danger and the rest of us need to fight back now! -Let's go ! The children's screams were heard so loudly, while some of the members have already been hit by bullets and from what smell they are covered with wolfsbane .. how the hell did they take us by surprise? I hope that Caliana will stick to that beginning of the plan and leave Kira in total control, the sooner we get rid of the Demons, the more chances we will have to win this war! I was already outside when a few houses caught fire and then I saw Dylan. The bastard! I'll kill him! There was smoke everywhere in the air, the flames were so big and they spread quickly from one house to another. We managed to keep Dylan's pack busy until almost everyone came to the shelter ..then I saw her! Kira jumped through the upstairs window directly on Dylan and as she looks I already knew that Kira is in full control. Some of the members were scared and were ready to attack her when I let out a loud growl. -Don't you dare approach Kira! She is Caliana's wolf and please stay away from her because she is in complete control and Caliana can do nothing about it. -Alex, does she stick to the plan? Ryan shouted as he broke a wolf's head. -Yes ..i least i hope she does ! We need to buy her as much time as she needs to give the demons a s*******r! -Okay, let's fight! I was fighting in human form with two wolves, it was quite hard but in the end I managed to break the neck of one and I stabbed the other with the dagger we used at the ceremony. Holy crap, I forgot about Elders! But that was no longer important, many wolves and demons were slowly approaching us, surrounding us.Caliana's wolf let out a loud growl that made me even goosebumps. She fought Dylan and tried to kill him as he cut her deep with his claws and blood jumped out of their bodies.Helena and Ellie fought alongside Kira, killing everything in their path. There were already so many corpses lying on the ground and the white snow had just become a river of blood. It seemed like I had been fighting for days, my human body no longer had the energy to fight Dylan's wolves. I had to shift and let Max out, I could feel in my head that he couldn't wait to kill someone.I nod to Carlos to let him know that I'm going to change places with Max and that I need a little guarding my back.I leave Max outside and then go to the first wolf next to me trying to put him down. We need Caliana to get rid of the demons and in the meantime Ellie's mother takes care of Dylan's witch.I was glancing at Caliana when I saw that Dylan's head was in Kira's mouth, covered in blood she still had the strength to fight ..I knew she was strong but I would never know what happens when Kira is in full control.If I wasn't in a war I swear I would have taken her right now and here, it may sound perverse but the fact that she is strong awakens an animal instinct in me.I also saw Carlos and Ryan fighting side by side and the rest of the warriors started to put more and more wolves on the ground. I think now that they have lost their Alpha they don't have that much energy anymore .. I know because that happened to me when Caliana's father was killed. It feels like life is leaking out of you and you need a few moments to come back to you but now those moments are exactly why we need to win this war.As I was fighting one of the demons I heard Ellie screaming, her screaming was so loud but we didn't know what was happening .. then I saw her mother's dead body lying on the ground. I have to get Ellie out of here. , now that she's suffering, she'll be easy prey for the others and I couldn't risk losing her too, I motion for Ryan to go after Ellie and take her away safely with her mother's body.I know what Ellie is going through now, that's why she has to be taken from the middle of the war, she is no longer able to think well and inside she knows that there is a fight between her feelings, she has to stay alive for Ryan and the rest of us. especially for Caliana ..I know she couldn't stand the loss of close people again, it breaks her heart and my mate happiness is the moste important thing in the world.As Ryana left for Ellie, Helena came to us to help us. I can estimate that there are about two hundred wolves around us, but luckily for us it seems that the demons have taken a step back so it will be easier for us to continue the fight.Now that Dylan is dead and the demons have received the desired m******e, Caliana should be back in control of Kira but shows no sign that she has returned. I saw her continue to stick her fangs and claws in each rival killing him on the spot, now the land is definitely soaked in blood as well as Kira. The moment I managed to return to the event room to check if they were survivors, I set my eyes on the stage and the m******e in front of my eyes turned my stomach upside down. Elders were dead, dismembered piece by piece as if we were in a butcher's shop, I couldn't stay inside anymore so I quickly went outside, Max was already started sneezing at the smell of death. ******** I felt like I was stuck in a black hole, I tried to talk to Kira and even other members of the pack but in vain but eventually I finally started to regain control of Kira but with a lot of effort. The fact that I just leaving a deadly killer in control is not the nicest thing that can happen.I pushed Kira back into my consciousness once I gained control of her body and looked around me. I saw Alex, Carlos and Helena along with the other members of the pack fighting with the rest of Dylan's wolves, a bunch of dead bodies lying on the ground but no trace of Ellie and Ryan. I was scared, I didn't know what happened to them and I hoped they weren't dead or worse ... that Kira hadn't killed them.I turned around and saw Dylan's head detached from his body and a few dozen other wolves lying on the ground breathless. The smell of blood and death and air stung my nostrils and Kira's body reacted to the smell starting to sneeze.This sometimes happens when the smell is extremely pungent. I was taken by surprise by a wolf that threw itself at me but Max, Alex's wolf took it before him and put it on the ground biting his neck ..I can say that Alex touched an artery because the blood was flowing so fast that in a few seconds that wolf had stopped moving. .-Hey love are you okay? Alex's wolf nodded at me. -I'm okay, let's end this war! We both touched our noses and then joined Helena and Carlos. There were growls and screams everywhere, I could hear the bullets flying in the air and the last wolves in Dylan's pack were led by his Beta. -Alex, we have to kill the beta! If he dies then the others will no longer be forced to fight. Even if I killed their Alpha as long as their Beta is alive I have no control over them. -We will separate him from the others after Carlos and I will surround and kill him. Just be careful! I let him know that I understood and then I go back to catch up with Helena with the two wolves that jumped on her.I cut off one of the wolves that jumped on Helena and knocked him to the ground, making room for Helena to kill the other.It's a hell of a war here and it looks like I lost a few members too. I wanted to ask Helena if she knew anything about Ellie or Ryan but she was already in another fight so I'm heading to Alex and Carlos who put a lot effort to kill the Beta.He was finally lying on the ground, he was dead. Now is the right time to impose myself in front of his wolves, I will take control of those who are still alive in their pack because enough blood has been shed and the fight continues. especially since it's getting dark now it's going to destabilize us a lot more. -Listen up! I have already turned into a human form, naked in front of everyone. Everyone's heads were now looking directly at me. -Your Alpha and Beta are dead! The witch who helped you died too! If you still want to wage this war against us, be ready to die!Some of Dylan's pack members returned to human form with their heads bowed, while the rest of them seemed undecided on what choice to make. -We can end this war now and merge our packs! I belive that enough members of both packs have died but no one has to die as long as you obey us! Soon almost all the members of the rival pack returned to the human form, those who remained in the form of a wolf were too wounded to return to the human form. They are now next to Alex who looked around us at the result of this war. .so many dead, houses destroyed and many members seriously injured. -Since you have all returned to human form I can understand that you have made a decision and you will remain under my and Alex's command as your Luna and Alpah I ask you all to go to the infirmary and help those who are very seriously injured! They all agreed, after which they began to help the seriously injured first. -Carlos, I want you to go to the underground shelters and tell them that It’’s safe to come out and in the meantime, I will also send a confirmation message. He approved me and then left in a hurry. "Attention all members of the pack! The war is over so now we are safe. Those who have survived here and those in the territory of Dylan Navarro's pack from now on will be under my and Alex's command! Please get ready to give medical help to everyone after which we will assess the losses! " I couldn't believe that we had finally stopped the war. From now on, however, everything will be difficult and different due to the losses suffered, but I hope that one day everything will return to normal. Helena approached me when suddenly I heard cries for help. I could hear that voice from anywhere, Uncle Mike is in danger! I went with Helena where the screams could be heard and then I saw him lying on the ground under the rubble of a burned house. He had a strong wound on his head and the concrete structure on his back did not let him rise. or when I saw Marco's body lying on the ground a little further on, my heart started beating hard, not knowing who to help for the first time, so I cried for help! -Someone help me now! I broke down and in a few moments Carlos and two warriors came to me. -Helena and I will help Marco you Carlos help my uncle and then see you at the infirmary! -Ok Cali, see you there! He didn't finish the whole sentence when I already reached Marco's body and fortunately for us he is still breathing. -I'm going to get you out of here ok Marco? I didn't know if he could hear me, but I felt the need to let him know that I was with him now and that I would do everything in my power to help him! I looked at Helena, announcing that when I reached three we would lift her by the hands and feet and take her directly to the infirmary. He nodded back and I started counting. - One, two, three ... let's go! We picked up Marco and then went straight to the infirmary, informing the pack doctors in advance that my uncle and Marco were seriously injured and needed medical attention now.Once I arrived at the infirmary reception, some nurses were waiting for us with a stretcher ready to take Marco to the operating room, while the nurses checked his vital functions I saw Ellie and Ryan. Finally I'm glad to see them, I thought they were dead! Carlos seems to have arrived before me with my uncle and now he signals to me that he is going back to Alex to continue helping him with the loss assessment. I was moving towards Ellie but Helena put a hand on my shoulder signaling that now is not a good time. I don't understand why but I'm not arguing with Helena now and we're both going out again. -Sorry I stopped you. Ellie isn't in her best moment right now. -Why ? What happened ? Now he asked me what happened while Kira had full control and why everyone avoids telling me directly what the hell is going on with Ellie now! -When Kira took control and you were fighting Dylan, Ellie's mother killed the witch he was working with but at the cost of her life .. she also died a few moments later and since then Alex has ordered Ryan to get Ellie out of in the middle of the war with his mother's body ..since then Ryan is next to Ellie .. -Oh God ! Why didn't anyone tell me anything sooner? I could have been with her now ..I already have enough confidence in you to know that you can do a job without me! -Sorry ... We tried to give Ellie space to mourn her mother. -Yeah, I understand perfectly, don't worry, but I wish I had been with her from the beginning. -We will all be with her soon, but now we have to put the pack on her feet, after which we will have the funeral ceremonies, oh and by the way, your aunt is coming here now. -How do you know that? -Carlos linked me now. -Okay .. go and help the rest and after I let my aunt know I will come too ..and please tell Alex that now we will do what is most important because it is too much dark to see what the hell actually happened here. -Sure , see you then ! Soon after Helena left, my aunt arrived in front of the hospital. I have to tell her the truth, but I will be by her side as much as she needs. -Hey aunt Jas .. uncle and Marco are now stable but sedated because they need rest to heal completely ..if you want I can stay with you until they wake up. She started crying, I could see how weak she was because of the stress ..I'm so sorry they went through something like that but I didn't expect to be attacked so quickly and having a war in the same day . -Don't worry, I can handle it. Go and help the rest of the pack .. I will come soon but first I want to talk to the doctors about their condition! She hugged me and then went inside and I headed to the event room where Alex and Helena gathered the bodies of the deceased.As I approached the event hall, the smell of death hit me in the nostrils ... other members of the pack were still bringing the corpses and then dividing them into categories so that everyone would have a chance to say goodbye to their loved ones regardless of the pack.In one corner I also saw the bodies of Dylan, his Beta and the witch Dylan was working with but while I was looking around my eyes fell on the m******e on the stage ..The Elders were dead and torn to pieces, Alex saw me looking to the awful image in front of me and when he put his hand on my pursuit I was startled, how could something like this happen? -I'm sorry Caliana .. Alex whispered in my ear. -It's not your fault ... if someone needs to be blamed, it's me! I haven't seen this coming so it's the price I paid!I've never liked Elders but they didn't deserve such a horrible death, not even Jackson who often breaks my word and doesn't show even a little respect ... yet no one deserves what happened today .. especially Ellie, i feel so bad for her because I already know what means to lose your family. I was in my thoughts when my aunt approached me with Helena. She seemed to look better than a few moments ago so the doctors probably gave her good news what was to be expected. Before Helena spoke to me I signaled that we'll get out of here because the smell has become unbearable and I'll let the boys take care of it. -Could you two help me with an organization plan until the boys finish here? It's early in the morning so I don't see why we waste time sleeping until we solve everything here. -Sure, what do you need? -I would like Aunt Jas to find the relatives of all the deceased and you Helena to take Carlos or two warriors with you to the Crescent Moon Pack to let them know that they will move into our territory and that it is necessary for them to come and bury theirs relatives or theirs love ones . -Okay, let's start now. -In the meantime, I will organize a group to take care of the funeral ceremony according to the old law. -Okay then, see you later Cali. I made them by hand and then I went to the pack house where the elderly women were now waiting to go to their homes. Old law burials were used centuries ago when war was the order of the day and thousands were killed every day so they found a way to purify the bodies of the dead by setting them on fire in large numbers just like in old vampire legends.And this is exactly what we will do now, considering that we are facing hundreds of deaths in both packs I asked the older women who know how to proceed with this ceremony, telling them that the funerals will take place tonight . After explaining to them what I needed and that it needed to be done as soon as possible before the dead bodies rotted, I decided it was time to go see Ellie.I went back to the infirmary where I last saw her to be with her right now. She is my friend and the job is to support her no matter what moments she goes through. She was still sitting in the same chair and Ryan was next to her. -Hey Ellie, I'm sorry I wasn't with you ..how are you? she was so pale and had red eyes from how much she cried ...she didn't seem to have any more tears to keep crying..her face staring blankly, she looks like she was a ghost. -Don't worry ..I know you couldn't ... I'm not well, I'm torn to pieces and the fact that my mother died I still can't believe it's real ..I don't know what to do .. She started to sigh and tremble again and Ryan hugged her much tighter to his chest. I could understand his pain, I went through it and even if I told him that in time he will be fine ..well this will be a lie. You will learn to live without the people you loved and lost but happiness will never be the same. -I'm sorry Ellie .. it's already morning and you should rest .. I know it's early but tonight we will organize funerals according to the old law but if you prefer a normal funeral we will bury your mother the day after tomorrow ... -It's ok ..it's not like I could bring her back to life in the meantime ..we'll go by the old law then ... what time will it be? -At 8 o'clock tonight, it will be at the stone circle in the middle of the forest, Ryan will show you where. -Ok then ..I'll try to sleep for a few hours then, do we owe it to seven in the living room? -Sure, easy sleep ..and Ellie if you need anything let me know! She nodded and then got up with Ryan's support and left.None of us had time to eat or cleanse ourselves of the dry blood on us and until we finish the funerals we will not do that. There are many to prepare and in such a short time you can not organize them but I all trust my friends that they will finish everything if I don't have energy anymore. I link Alex to let him know that at 8 tonight we will have the funerals according to the old law at the stone circle and to let the people know that they can say goodbye to them.In the meantime, I'm writing a message to Helena to find out how the situation is with the other pack. She didn't leave with Carlos, so that makes me more worried about her safety and the battle we had took a lot of energy and that means we don't have the same vigilance anymore. I started designing a plan with Alex and Carlos to come back slowly so I sent almost all the members of our pack either home or to the infirmary, they needed a little rest and in the meantime we were the only ones left and about thirty members of Crescent Moon pack. -Your people who have remained in your territory will be notified that they will move here. Tonight at 8 o'clock we will have the funerals according to the old law and until then we will find a place for you to live. When the rest of your pack will get here Carlos will take care of you so please listen to him. I know everyone is tired and lacking in energy but tomorrow we will have time to recover and today we will mostly take care of restoring what was destroyed .So let's get to work and if you have any questions please ask them now! It was complete silence .. no one had the courage to ask anything, not even to look up at me or Alex, however .. -Luna, are you sure Dylan's dead? We don't want to be tormented by him again! -I killed him myself ... so I'm sure! I could hear their whispers, they were happy to get rid of Dylan and suddenly when they heard my statement they were full of energy and their faces radiated .. well that's not what I expected but it is understandable that Dylan was not the best and most understanding Alpha.He deserved to die for everything he did to both his pack and me when he attacked us.Now his pack belongs to me so they will be treated properly, I know that when you receive an order from Alpha you can't refuse it even when he orders you to kill your own mother ... so I understand it's not their fault but they were constrained by the order of Dylan and his Beta.One day we will be happy again but until then we have to adapt to survive. Alex has meanwhile left with some new members of the pack to save some things from the burned houses and I was left behind waiting for Ryan. -Cali ..thank you for what you do ..I was looking at him and I didn't understand what he meant .. -What do you want to say ? -I know you've never been close to anyone but Alex, but thank you for being close to Ellie now. She really needs it. -Don't worry, I understand perfectly how she feels now ..I’ve been there as well as you know! I put a hand on his shoulder and then we hugged.I felt the phone vibrate in my pocket and a message from Helena appeared on the screen "Well the situation is a little strange .. I mean I don't know if these people want to celebrate that they got rid of Dylan the tyrant or mourn their people. anyway I don't think I'll get back tonight, I'll come straight with them tomorrow. kisses " .I answer her back to be careful and safe and that I'm waiting for her tomorrow but to keep me informed. You never know when someone goes crazy and takes you by surprise so it's better to be careful .. in the end I do this in my own pack. It's almost three o'clock, soon I have to meet Ellie in the living room but until then I will go to check the preparations for the funeral. I went again to the event hall hoping that the smell would not be so strong but I deceived. The old womens were already there preparing each body with herbs and then wrapping it in a white silk sheet.I never understood these meanings but I did not ask about them either. -Ladies, how are you? -We're fine Luna ..we'll finish here soon. -Okay ... oh I'm going to ask you to pick up Mrs. Silva's body from the infirmary, Ellie agreed to this ceremony. -Sure, Luna. I'll send someone right away. -Thanks for everything ladies! They gave me a sad smile and then let them continue their work.I was sitting in the middle of the garden now, my luck is that it is winter and that the flowers were not in bloom ..ironic of me, I give a mental slap when I hear Kira mad at my remark .I'm glad she's safe, I know she took a hard fight when the demons started to give them the s*******r they needed and I'm glad I got rid of them quickly ..because if I didn't do it I don't think there would be anyone left alive now."Don't be so pessimistic Cali you know your backs always appear!" Her voice echoes in my head, "Yeah, I know Kira and thank you for that!" And with that being said, I will check my uncle now !
