Taylor age 15
Taylor’s POV
This night is cold like all the others but tonight especially freezing as I loss the will to live. Why did I have to be born at all if this is how life is supposed to be then why’d I even bother living in a world that doesn’t want me like I don’t want it! My eyes are wet but I can’t care anymore it’s like they don’t stop even when I’m to exhausted. Hhhh I only wish for death now in this cold cold cage. My eyes get to heavy and in no time I’m unconscious.
Two weeks earlier
I Taylor am a 14 year old boy who has always worked and scraped by to survive. You see I’ve never know my parents and the place I was put by the government I had to escape it. The man that had taken me for as long as I could remember would burn my feet and hands with cigarettes I was his ashtray even worse than that I’d get beat if I made a small mistake like not have the place cleaned or have food cooked or if he’d have company I’d be locked up in the basement I was not to eat and never look him in the face or I’d get hurt badly. My body is full of pain and nasty scars I look like a skeleton. My hair is white as snow but you’d never know that if you looked at my hair now it’s filthy and I’m not allowed to touch his house other then to do my work and cook. He doesn’t allow me to do anything I’ve live my life locked away. I don’t even know what my voice sounds like. I’ve never been able to talk either that would get me a punishment or two. Sometimes it’s not even safe to breathe in air around him. I’m scared every second of every hour that he’d do word if I don’t do what I’m told. My body shakes when he calls for me I have a headache and my body hurts I’m so tired. So so tired.
One day he came down and told me to get ready that he has sold me. I couldn’t believe it. I was so shocked at what I heard all I could think was who could possibly have bought me from this nasty man. It had to be someone like him or worse. Had to be why else would they have bought me. I started right then and there to look for an opportunity to escape.
So I wanted for almost a week and then one day I noticed that the door was unlocked and went up to check see if he was there and nope he wasn’t my heart beat so loud I thought the world could hear it and I was holding my breath for so long that I could see my color changing. It’s so hard to be quiet I look all around sure not to miss anything and check all the windows. But they all had a security system on that would go off. Then I checked the door it’s looking from the outside and there’s no way I could go through. I’ve no choice but to go through a window but would have to run and never stop because as soon as I get it open all hell would start and if I’m caught I’m worse than dead. With one big breath we’ll all the breath that my body would allow I grabbed the lock and pulled then I pulled the window open hearing the alarm go off almost immediately and the noise was so loud that I was shaking and didn’t move right away. I hurried out running with all my body parts sadly not working properly but I’m going. There’s no way I’m going back. I run for the first time I see everything I can’t focus on anything I’ve to run and never stop. So I do. It’s been three sun ups and I’ve taken short breaks here and there but I’ve been going none stop. I’m in what looks to be a field a small one but there ground looks soft enough to sleep on so I do just that and sleep. It was middle of day but I slept till next sun up and felt so alive. I didn’t have to worry about anything anymore I felt so happy I laugh hysterically even though I couldn’t hear my own voice, it just came up as sound an awkward sound but I didn’t care I couldn’t even be bothered I was now free! With the excitement still fresh I get up and go to the hot springs spot I saw earlier. I hastily went in and my muscles started to relax instantly after I was my face then my hair my heart felt like it would stop if I continued it was so good that I felt like I’d have a heart attack or something.getting out and shaking of I then washed my clothes it’s all I had so I needed to make sure that it stayed clean till I’m able to get some somewhere. The clothes that I have I’ve been wearing since I was smaller there basically ruined by rips and stains and it’s extremely baggy but that makes it easy for me to keep them until it’s actually really necessary to get new ones. After I hang them up to dry in a tree. My stomach hurts and I’m hungry I haven’t eaten anything since I left that hell. I used to sneak something to eat when ever he’d be busy not paying attention to me and the perfect time to get food would have been when I made his plate for dinner. I don’t know what to eat I don’t know how to find food out here. I look around first I try the grass it was nasty so I then tried the tree and it was just as gross now I look around and see something different it looks like something that I have made for the master it was round and orange I pilled it like the master did once and take a bite. Mmmhm I eat it all to quickly I then look for more food and there’s some up higher up so i climb up more eating one after the other only stoping when I don’t see any more. I’m not full but that’s fine I’ll look for more later instead I check my clothes and sure enough there ready to be worn. I lazy around for the most of the day and I’m getting tired again. Taking a nap sounds nice so I let my body relax and rest once again taking all the time I need to catch up on sleep. It’s been 9 suns and I’m now fully rested and feeling much happier and better every day feels great to be free to do what ever I choose and eat when I want only enjoying myself. I see animals and cool things everywhere all the time I learned a lot from the animals like how to hunt and eat. I learned how to smell and listen and how to kill by watching them first it was the flying thing then the hanging things now the big thing with a sense of danger I make sure to watch from a distance hiding behind the tree. It looks spooked like something was going to eat him his hair up and teeth out he growled really loud and then I saw what he was afraid of it’s huge bigger than that brown thing and it looks different longer legs and iTs teeth sharp and scary looking my whole being shocked like I was back in that place trapped and hurting. I did the only thing I could think of and ran fast far away I saw a tree and climbed it only stopping at the highest point! My heart is pounding and it hurts worse then the last time I ran for my life! One minute I’m in the tree and the next I’m falling it happens so fast that I’d have no time for anything I saw my poor ugly sad life flash through my eyes right before I hit the ground. In these moment all I could feel was relief now I don’t have to go through that pain anymore. ITS BLACK ALL AROUND.! Not what I thought it would be like to die it’s entirely empty and I’m all alone. I find it kinda peaceful in a way really. But I wish I was back in the forest with the trees and the brown thing and also the water oh and taking naps in the flowers it was so fun.. but now I’m cold and it stinks! It’s dark and I feel something rough and ice cold. I feel closed in like I was in the basement again. Oh no did he find me?! But waaait didn’t I die? Why can I feel? Im tired I’ll just sleep.
Ryker POV
Today was my turn to patrol the border of my territory and in my opinion is mostly peaceful. I never have a problem other then rouge’s and bear sightings to witch I handle. I’m the largest wolf there is today with black being my color and a patch of white on my neck going down to my chest to my jaw in length and around my neck but not all the way touching around. I have a pack to protect as there alpha and have been for five years now and my pack is growing bigger and bigger with time. On my run I’ve sought to kill 2 rogue and I smelled a bear close to the boarders so I go to intimidate him away and kill if necessary. I don’t like killing but it is what is needed. The bear is in front of me and I maksure I’m known making sure to walk in his direction loud and clear that if he doesn’t leave I’ll have to take care of him he gets the point and takes of in no time. I heard running and turn in the direction to the sounds of feet running in a panic state. I don’t lose sight and slowly follow. I can’t smell anything it’s like they don’t have a sent. I’m confused because everything has a sent but somehow this person doesn’t. I’m trying my hardest
to figure out a sent and my wolf doesn’t like this I followed him to a tree and out of nowhere the boy had fallen down and right then I caught him before he hit the ground. Before I realized what I had done it was to late I do t know what made me move so fast to catch him but I did and now he’s unconscious in my arms. He was so light it’s scary like I’m holding a ball. Shocked and unsure if he live that fall I then checked him watching closely he’s breathing but so very slightly that I’d think he was dead If I wasn’t a alpha wolf with extremely good senses. First his head is that of a teen a small runt. Then I notice his white hair pale skin and deathly thin look, now his shirt it’s torn everywhere and looks like it had been patched over and over. His pants just the same they look to be four times his size and he has no shoes he’s so small he’d be mistaken as and eight year old in just size. We’ll nothing I can do now that I’ve saved him I’ll take him in for questioning. I called for my beta nick and told him to bring the boy to the cellar till I get back from the hospital after all I’ll need the doctor to examine him and then I’ll do my investigation. I choose to walk instead of linking for the doctor to give the boy time to wake up and hopefully he wakes up in the time it takes to get to him. Hhh I was hoping for a peaceful day. Bring the doctor to the cellar I get in first and look for the cage that my beta put the fragile boy. He’s in the fourth row on the right. He was up and in the corner when I got close I saw him visibly shake. I was an alpha so I kinda understand that but I doubt it was because of this. I speak up.
(Ryker) hello my name is ryker what is yours?
(Taylor) ..
(Ryker) do you understand what I’m saying?
(Taylor) ..
(Ryker) okay we’ll since you don’t want to answer me I’ve brought you a doctor and he’ll treat you right now if you try anything your dead and that’s your only warning.
Taylor’s POV
Waking up from the darkness I found myself locked away it’s different from the basement it’s scaring me more because it’s worse than the house basement. A few seconds later and I heard a door open and I hurry to the back wall and clung to it not knowing what was happening. Then to dark figures walk to me. I can since that there strong and powerful. I’m so scared what have they captured me for they probably want to hurt me like that man did I need to run. but how? how?! Hearing the man speak I know what he’s said and I can understand well for the most part. But I can’t talk back not that I would anyway but I just stay in my corner hopefully it’ll be over soon.
I’m looking at my feet sure not to move and have them beat me I do t think I can handle that right now. I hear the creek of the door and know that the in the cage with me. Few seconds later and I heard it lock I don’t move I won’t move. The short one comes close and I hear him ask questions like haven’t I eaten anything and what? Then I smelled it the same same thing that man ma. Did the taller one would do I shake and try to run to the other side to get away from what I know what would happen next. They both look shocked probably wondering how I was able to move. But I couldn’t care my body shaking and I’m terrified but there’s no way I’ll let him do that the burns I don’t want it anymore I cry and shake and hold my hand s for them not to come close but of course that didn’t happen and the tall man came to me inches away and I know what comes next the look his face gave said I did wrong and that I’d be punished for it. My heart loud enough to hear I’m so scared that I peed myself and the pain that was to come I blacked out before he could. He’d not get the satisfaction of seeing me hurt.
Ryker POV
As we walk in I turn to lock the door so he’d know not to try that. Turing to watch the doctor he started by asking questions like have you eaten anything? Listening to see if the boy would answer he said nothing but then I look closer he’s scared he was visibly scared. We’ll he was in a basement and with people he didn’t know so it’s understandable. I decided to take a smoke not even a few seconds later the boy looked up. He didn’t respond to anything and now he responds to something I’ve done I’m kinda happy about that but what did he respond to? I take a long breath of smoke and then he freaks out running to the side the cage away from us the cage not that big and he couldn’t exactly run then I heard a heart beating and was amazed that I could hear it this much. I mean sure I’m a wolf but I’m sure even humans can hear it. Then I remember that the doctor that I brought was human and my suspicions where right. The doctor was shocked he tried to tell the boy to calm down and the boy wasn’t in the state to listen. So I got closer and the boy looked up at me his face looked like death was here to greet him poor boy pissed himself and feel unconscious. I pick him up and just brought him to the pack hospital mad sure to have a hard on the outside for just in case and let the doctors do there job. I want home to shower and sleep for the night. Once morning came I debated if I wanted to get up or not. Then remember I had a small situation.. the boy. I get up to make a call to my brothers first and tell them my findings and how my days been going lately. My brothers are alphas like me and they share the alpha title with me. There not here do to a pack up north we have had many insanely bad experiences with we’ve dealt with them because of the trade we do with the packs and for the last time they cut our shipment short so we aren’t dealing with them anymore. They’ll be back tomorrow and they have a surprise for me. Hopefully it’s nothing to crazy. I may look and be the strongest alpha but only my brothers know that I’m truly a soft hearted person. I end the call after reassuring them that I’ll be fine with the small boy and that the poor thing couldn’t even hurt air if he wanted to. The pack house is where we stay till we find our mate. It’s my dream to have our own place and have pups. We’ve discussed this and agreed but we won’t do anything until our mate is here to make the decision on the mater to. It’s important for all of us to agree on this because normally we’d stay in The pack house on the top floor and second floor is the beta and there family then the head warrior family. I skipped breakfast and went straight to the hospital to see the boy and talk over the boy’s condition with the doctor to find out what’s going on with him. I don’t think he’s a danger but he could be sick and it could be something serious and contagious. I walk to the desk and told the nurse that I’m here to meet doctor Vic. Waiting didn’t take long.
(Ryker) hey mister Vic how are you?
(Vic) I’m fine thank you Alpha. It’s a pleasure to see as always Alpha Ryker. Im sure you didn’t come here to talk to this old man! Your here for the boy right?
(Ryker) yes sir. What’s his condition?
(Vic) the poor boy is so scared and I see why he’s no doubt Been through hell and back. First his hands and feet are covered in burn marks from cigarettes I believe. And the reason his heart nearly exploded yesterday. Sorry alpha it was not my intention to offend you sir!
(Ryker) oh sorry my apologies my wolf didn’t like that the boy was tortured. Wired but keep going with the diagnosis.
(Vic) yes alpha. So other than the burns he has Many cuts some deep some not and he seems to understand what I say we’ll for the most part but also he’s mute. He doesn’t talk. I locked in his mouth and all is good and did ex-rays he’s been through a terrible trauma and dons t speak because of it. At least that’s my opinion. It happens. But in his case I do t think he was allowed to talk. Oh and one more thing he’s been starved to the absolute limit. Fortunately he’s still alive but I don’t think he’ll make it through I’ve put an IV drip in and have watched what he eats but he doesn’t touch the food I don’t know why but he needs to take a few bits. I can’t force feed him and he needs to eat to survive. I’ve also gave him all the shots I could for now and I’ll continue with test to make sure he’s good but so far all good.
(Ryker) okay thanks Make sure no one is to enter his room just you and me. Others could case him to trigger his trauma and I don’t want that.
(Vic) yes alpha
(Ryker) okay you may go.
Ryker POV
Wow taking a breath and thinking about what the doctor said I was shocked. But I have to get all the information and hopefully with luck I can get him to eat something. Knock knock I’m coming in.
Hello my name is alph.. I mean Ryker. My name is Ryker and what’s your name?
Taylor’s POV
A man taller then the last came in and he was scary looking I think I’ve seen him. Then a flash of memory came up and I remember what happened this man Is bad! he will do like the same like that evil man did he’s going to hurt me. Why me is all I could think. I heard him talking but I can’t answer him. I’ve been captured again. My eyes leaking but I’m silent. I don’t make eye contact and wait for my command. Hopefully the job isn’t to hard. I don’t want to be punished on my first day at least. I guess I was lost in thought, because next thing I know there was a hand on my face and I immediately squint my eyes and clenched my jaw waiting for the pain that didn’t come and I was confused but knew I’d messed up and will pay for it. I don’t move and wait till I’m told to do something. But I didn’t hear anything and then I realized that I was still in bed. I hurry to the floor and kneeled lowering my head down almost touching the floor. I then heard a loud bang and I went to the corner where I’d be safe away from the sound. My body shaking uncontrollably. I was terrified now there was more voices and they sounded so angry I peed myself my. I knew I was going to get it this time. I hurry and take my thing off that was on me and start to clean it. It’s better to so that the beating will not be that bad hopefully.
Ryker POV
I tried to talk to the boy but he never answered anything I got close and lifted his head from chi’s chin gently to look at me but I think I freaked him out because he started to cry and then my brothers had to come in and scared the pee out the boy. I didn’t know what to do. My brothers Nathan and Jackson are also my mates. There angry because they thought they saw me almost kiss the small boy and all I could do was hopefully calm down everyone so that I could explain what actually happened. So me being the most dominant one I send a calming smell in the air. Then I mind link to my very mad mates.
(Ryker) hey you miss understood the situation he’s been captured and is in a bad state look at him you literally scared him so much he peed himself. If you look closer you’ll see the burns and scars he’s not like us he’s human I think I don’t smell anything when I try to. That poor boy didn’t do anything wrong yet. Hhhh you can’t just jump to conclusions I’ll never cheat.
(Nathen) but we saw you! You had his face and you where you whe
(Jackson) Nate I saw what you saw but Ryker never lies to us even when it hurts. I believe him.
(Nathen) you’re right I’m sorry mate please forgive me.
(Jackson) I’m also sorry mate.
(Ryker) good now let’s help the boy.
Nathen POV
Getting home was extremely stressful for me and my mate Jackson we where bring a pup from another pack because that pack was killing the poor thing he hasn’t talked to us but he’s four years old and has been through hell. It’s to be expected. I want to adopt him but we have to make that decision first with all our mates. When we arrived I said we should get the him to the doctor first so we did then we smelt our mate and followed his sent it smelled like he was worried. Then we walked in on what we thought was him cheating. Paying attention to the situation he was right he was so scared he really did pee himself and he’s naked. He has so many scars I can’t even count them some looks like burns. Some look like they were cuts. Some deeper than most. No, where’s on this boy’s body is clear it’s all scars. It looks so painful then there’s how skinny he is like he starve to death like how is he still alive? Wait does he have white hair? Then something happened that we all didn’t expect not even the scared boy!
Taylor’s POV
After cleaning my pee up I just held the clothes that I had still waiting for them to give me my punishment. I was once again bowing head to the ground. Then I felt small hands on me I didn’t even notice there was a kid here. He lifted my head up and I meet his eyes for the first time in ever I got to see. See with my own eyes the boy looks like me.. we’ll the same scars and some burns. His is different but I know what happened because it’s what happened to me over and over. But he’s so young. My heart goes out to him all I could think about now was protecting this sweet innocent boy. Hey asked me my name and I for once wished I can talk back. I tried desperately to talk but it all sounded like broken sounds. My throat is starting to hurt.. I then grabbed his hand and tried to remember what I was thought in kindergarten. Spelling my name. T A Y L O R
Hopefully he knows what that means. The I was reminded that we are not alone when I was startled by the tall scary man who said my name. I shivered and instantly thought to grab the kid and put him behind me. I try to block the blows to come but didn’t get any. Surely by now someone should’ve hit me. Then all of a sudden the baby boy came out and he looked pissed! He the turns into a little pup and I was in awe at his cuteness. Then the boy growled at the other men in the room I smiled at the bravest boy in the world. I picked him up and held him closer to my heart making sure that he could hear my heart beat making sure he knows he’s not alone. Finally I’ve calmed down and so has he some how when I looked at his very big beautiful brown eyes we created a bound. Shocked by this he then jumped out my arms and started a line of zoomies. Then I tried to talk to him through the mind link. Hi my name’s Taylor!
(Damien) hi Taylor my names Damien! Tay you like me?
(Taylor) hm yes in many ways pup. But hey did they hurt you? Don’t worry I’ll get us out of here okay?
(Damien) otay Tay! I like you we go together wight?
(Taylor) of course I would never leave you alone. But could you tell me which one hurts you hunny because I’ll make sure the don’t live.
(Damien) no tay. They not hurt me it iit was my pack before they came Nate saw that they were all mean to me and he took me. He hasn’t hurt me I’m strong I can defeat them. BBBut they hurt you tay? So I well go wif you.
(Taylor) no they didn’t hurt me well not yet… we’ll just see what they want okay the ask to leave. Okay?
(Damien) otay!
Ryker POV
Hey mates it looks like there.. no can’t be hmmm yeah there definitely mind linked. How did that happen? Wait if they can link then that means he’s wolf to right? How come I can’t sense it why did he link with the pup so fast?
Nate~ hmm yeah there definitely having a talk so I’d say there linked but probably need to ask just in case because he could be warlock. I don’t know why you can’t since. Um, I can’t even sense ‘em . Let’s just ask hopefully the kid will like to talk as I think that the boy can’t talk I saw him try and then respond to Damien by trying to spell it out. But I don’t want us to freak them out I think they bonded quickly because there the same they experienced the same kinda pain. I think the difference In age has made it eyes to for them.
Ryker~hmm I agree
Jackson~ yeah okay I’ll ask the kid then.
Jackson POV
I tried to get close but when I make it close enough to almost touching the kid they both turned the kid growling at me. He don’t even know that he doesn’t scare me the slightest but it’s cute.
