The Leopard's Alpha Mate

Reunion and Death

-Damian's POV-

CRASH!!!

I stop running atop the gate walls and look up at the castle to see a figure falling out a large window on the top floor. Behind the figure I see her; Sapphire, our mate with an outstretched leg towards the figure who is now falling towards the courtyard. Looking more closely at the falling figure, Noir begins to growl.

"Roland!!" We both roar and start running along the wall again towards the middle of the courtyard.

Everyone is looking up keeping clear of the falling glass as Roland transforms into his leopard mid fall. Landing on his feet, the bottle he was holding comes down right on his head knocking him out. I don't bother looking at him and ready myself to jump to the 3rd floor window Sapphire was sitting at. Noir jumps and reaches the window.

"Waoh!" I shout as one of our back legs slip off the edge.

"Noir, Damian!!" Sapphire shouts as Noir picks himself back up then walks over to her.

She sighs and smiles. I turn back and begin untying her hands and foot.

"Heh guess you don't wanna bother with some pants huh?" She blushes.

"Couldn't bother if I was gonna be fighting, they would have ripped anyways," I grin grabbing a pare of pants from the floor and putting them on.

She stands up and turns towards me. Without another word she jumps into my arms and kisses me deeply.

'Can you hear me now?' She asks.

"Yeah I can. Must have been something with the rope he tied you with," I guess.

"I don't care. I'm just glad you can hear me again," she sobs with tears in her eyes.

I hug her tightly and rub her back as she cries into my chest. After a few minutes she finally stops and looks up at me.

"Where did Roland go after I kicked him?" She asks.

"He landed on his feet in leopard form then the bottle he was holding came down and hit him square on the head knocking him out," I laugh.

"Really?! Haha!" She laughs back holding her hand infront of her mouth.

"Yeah you got him good with that kick," I grin and swoop down picking her up off her feet and into my arms.

"Woah! ...So is this where we get our happily ever after?" She asks grinning up at me as we head to the window.

"Not yet. He needs to be punished for what he has done to you and to this tribe," I answer her as I jump down landing on the top of the gate wall then into the court yard.

"Drake?" Sapphire questions as I set her on her feet.

We turn to look at Drake who has a large scar going across his chest.

"Oh my god what happened to you?" She scolds him rushing over.

Just as she did for me, she places a hand on his chest and starts to hum a beautiful little song. In no time at all, the scar is completely gone.

"There. Don't do that again you big dummy," she pouts puffing up her cheeks.

Drake smiles and ruffles her hair then gets swatted away and glared at. He shrugs and laughs at her sour face. I can't help but smile at the two siblings as they tease each other. My thoughts are pulled back to reality as someone starts screaming and shouting.

"Let go of me!!! I am Roland Thorn alpha and chief of this tribe and you will do as I say!!!" He shouts as Theo and Elliott pin him to the ground, cuffing his hands behind his back.

"Oh shut up we don't give a f**k what you say," Theo growls as I walk over to them.

"What are you all doing just standing around for?!?! Help me you bunch of no good morons!!!" Roland roars.

"They will never listen to you again Roland," I turn to see Joshua walk up as Sapphire finishes healing his shoulder.

"Excuse you?! Why the hell wouldn't they listen to me?! I am their alpha!!" Roland shouts

"Not anymore!" A voice rang through the crowd.

The crowd of people moved aside to reveal Kenneth walking into the circle.

"We no longer see you, Roland Thorn, as our alpha!" He shouts as everyone cheers behind him.

Roland glares at him, the smell of alchohol still lingering on him. I look at Kenneth and nod my head, he nods back then glares at Roland.

"Now you will suffer the way we did," Kenneth growled grabbing a knife someone handed to him.

Theo and Elliott put Roland on his knees and hold him there as Kenneth steps up to him.

"This is for my mother and father, whom you had killed for no reason!!!" Kenneth yells stabbing Roland right in the shoulder.

"AHHHH!!!" Roland screams in pain.

Everyone cheers as Ken pulls the blade out then stabs Roland again in the stomach.

"AHHH!!! Wait stop I'll make you my beta! How

about that?! Just don't kill me!!!" He cries.

"No. You're gonna die here today by our hand," Ken hissed at him.

In one quick motion Ken pulled the blade in Roland stomach, across his stomach letting his guts spill out onto the snow covered stone courtyard floor. Everyone cheered even louder as Roland sat there in shock of what happened and the light slowly faded from his eyes, not that there was much. He slumps over with a thud. Hearing some whimpers beside me I look over at Sapphire who was facing away from from the bloody mess. I rub her back then lead her away from the crowd.

"You ok, kitten?" I ask her.

"Ya just not used to seeing that kinda thing, but won't we be in trouble for this?" She wonders.

"No. Leopard tribes here aren't under the strict rules of the supernatural court. They let them deal with it themselves as long as no one else gets seriously involved," I explain.

"Oh so its only my tribe that's apart of the SNC because I'm with you now?" She asks looking up at me with her crystal blue eyes.

"Yes but I suggested that Ken become next Alpha of this tribe and to join the council in case something like this happens again," I explain kissing her forehead.

Drake pops up beside her and signs to her.

"Yes I'm fine; I'm just not used to the blood and gore," she laughs lightly.

Drake hugs her and gives her a thumbs up before heading back into the crowd to deal

with Roland's dead body. Looking over my shoulder I can see the tribe members dragging Roland's dead body over to the wall of the castle and hanging it up by his chained hands. I look back at Sapphire and run my hands through my hair.

"Come on kitten I don't think you wanna see what's gonna happen to his body," I wince leading her out of the courtyard.

"Sir, should we get the Luna home so her father can confirm she is ok?" Theo asks walking up behind me with the others who came with us.

"Yes; I think Rose would like to know as well," I smile at Sapphire who looks up at me with a big smile on her face.

"Yes I'd like to go home but I know Rose is gonna scold me then hug me haha," she

laughs.

"Then shall we go then kitten?" I ask.

She nods her head as Theo whistles and a sled comes out of the courtyard with all of Leon's elite warriors attached to it. Leading the team is Elliott as he bows his head to us. We get into the sled with Theo and Drake. My two other elites who fallowed us run behind the sled in case anything else goes wrong which I hope doesn't, but you never know.
