**Trigger warning- incest r**e scene
Leviathan POV
I walked through the door of the pack house so grateful to be home. Everyone was sat down for dinner. They stood up when they saw me come in. In unison they said, “Welcome back Alpha Leviathan.” They bowed. I nodded my head. “Thank you. Sit and enjoy dinner.” They took their seats while I stashed my bags in my room. I heard a knock at my door and Titan entered quickly after. “You’re lucky I wasn’t naked! Why do you feel like you can just barge into my room?” Titan smirked. “Who were you gonna be naked with?” I shrugged, the weight of not finding my mate clouded my eyes. I could see the pity in Titan’s. “So, what do you want that you just couldn’t wait to tell me?” Titan smiled, glad to see I wasn’t willing to wallow in pity for long. “Nothing that couldn’t wait. I just wanted to let you know that yesterday the woman was dropped back far from the border line. She never gave us any information, but she was awfully scared of something.” I nodded. “I’m glad it didn’t come with any major issues. I finally got them to approve the contract, so we have a lot more work to do. Would you see if Chandra would be willing to sit in on interviews with me? I need to hire more people.” Titan faked a look of upset. “What you don’t want me? You better not be trying to steal my woman!” He smiled and stuck his tongue out. “Fine I’ll ask her, but you better keep your hands off!” With that he stomped away. I had a smile on my face. It was so good to be home. I headed down the stairs to join everyone for dinner.
Elenora POV
I spent most of my day resting. I was out of the woods, but I still hurt bad. After we hunted and found water, I spent most of my day laying by the fire in human form. I tried to curl up, but pain radiated in me. Healing at the rate of a werewolf is great but can still be a slow process when the damage is great. As the wonderous moon switched places with the sun I shifted for a quick run to the river. We drank our share then went back to our hideout. I wasn’t in any shape for a long run. Hunting this morning felt like it almost killed me, but we needed food. As I fell asleep my head slipped into a dream,
**‘It's dark in my room. I have been in here all day. Dad has been on a rampage. I heard my mom begging for him to stop beating her. He finally did, but it was well after she fell silent. He rarely lost his cool like this. He beat mom every day, but usually it was a slap here or there because she didn’t clean the house good enough or dinner wasn’t what he wanted. When I saw his fists come out, I ran to my room. Mom told me that was the best thing to do and to stay here until she came to get me even if I was hungry or thirsty. Thinking of food made my stomach rumble. I had to skip dinner. I was hoping mom would come get me soon. The door creaked open then. It was dark so I couldn’t see who it was. ‘Momma?’ The figure didn’t say anything, but I started to smell my Father. He had never visited my room before. I felt his body weight join me in bed. I started to tremble, and I was afraid to say anything. What if he started hitting me? He continued to not say a word, but I felt his hands on me. I was only 5 so I didn’t understand what was happening. His fingers found his way to my private area. I tried to push his hand away, but he smacked them, so I stopped. He was in my bedroom for what felt like forever pushing his fingers into me and rubbing himself on me. I stayed as still as I could until he left.’
I woke up shuttering. I had pushed those memories down a long time ago. Those nights happened randomly, but they happened frequently. He started with just his fingers, but it eventually ended with him taking both of my virginities when I was 6. **When I tried to tell mom she just shushed me and told me to do what it took to keep him happy because I didn’t what to know what would happen if he wasn’t. I was starting to have a panic attack. I had to remind myself that I wasn’t with him anymore and he hasn’t found me yet. I stood up and tried to shake the bad memories from me. I looked up and saw the sun had already risen to be close to the afternoon mark. I must have really needed that sleep. I was about to undress to shift to look for breakfast when I head a twig snap behind me. I quickly turned my head to see a man with tattered shorts on. I knew his face and the memories came rushing back. I screamed and shifted then started running before I even heard what he said.
Max POV
I had been searching for her all night. I noticed her scent all over the area I had arrived at. The sun was starting to show, and I was getting so impatient. She was going to pay. No one runs from me. I could feel the fury rolling through my wolf self. Suddenly I heard a noise and saw her stand up. I knew it was her immediately because her scent was pushed at me by the wind. That b***h was going to pay. I quietly shifted back and threw on the shorts I brought with me. I started walking toward her and my foot landed on a branch. I watched her whip her head around and it caused me to smile. I could see the fear in her eyes. Her face was riddled with what we did to her. The bruises were healing, but I knew she would have scars. I continued walking toward her. “Well hello bitch.” She screamed, shifted, then ran. I screamed out in fury and did the same. She was slow probably due to the beating we gave her. I was gaining on her when several scents forced me back. We were heading into pack land and warriors were coming toward us. I stopped and slinked into the shadows. I wanted to kill her, but I wasn’t willing to get killed by the warriors. I watched as she shifted into her human form and fell to the forest floor. I could hear her begging for her life and saying that someone was following her. I saw a wolf sniff the air and look around. I was too well hidden. I watched as the unshifted warriors roughly grabbed her and dragged her onto pack land. f**k.
