FERAL MATE

CHAPTER 5: DEREK IS AN ENEMY

My eyes slowly and I was in a dark room, my heads and legs were tied strongly together. I could hardly move

Where am I? I wanted to rest my back and I fell down the back of my head hitting the hard ground. “Ouch”, I rolled over till I reached the end of the wall.

I sat up and looked around. This room was pitch black I couldn’t even see my hands. I sat in the corner thinking about what happened and if everybody was okay. Mel, I wonder where she is the only person I truly care about.

I sat in the dark corner for what felt like an hour just thinking and trying not to cry. My body shook from the cold every time I moved some part of me would scream out in protest. There was not a part of my body that didn’t hurt.

I clenched my teeth and looked around me again, hoping I missed something and would find something this time. I couldn’t make anything out in this place. I wrapped my arms in between my legs, cringing at the sudden sharp pain in my shoulder and back. I wanted nothing more than to sleep, but I know I wouldn’t be able to not until I know what happened and where everyone is.

I heard sounds coming from outside this thin walls. I cringe every time a houl pierced through the rowdy laughter. It was like they were celebrating, then I remembered how those two wolves pounced on my father. Is he okay? I just want to know what’s happening.

My eyes started getting weak, I blinked multiple times trying to fight nature, how can I sleep right now. Tears started pouring down my eyes, while my eyes grew heavier and I laid down on the cold hard floor and slept off.

“Miss Lydia”, I looked up, startled. A man dressed as a guard, stood in front, a cruel smile on his face. I didn’t even hear him coming in.

“Yes?”

His smile grew as he kneeled down in front of me, “ Would you like to know why you are here?” I nodded and swallowed hard as I forced myself to look at him.

“You must be curious to find out” the man said again with a wide smile, he must be very happy to see me locked in here.

“ I am Paul, by the way.”

“Paul”, I said trying to figure if I know him. Almost like he was reading my mind

He chuckled, “ Trust me, you don’t know us but we know who you are – and who’re father is.

“You are paying for the sins of your father and your pack, and today in front of all our packs your father will pay for his sins

I swallowed, not liking where this conversation is heading, “Why are you people doing this?” I said

His face changed, from smiling his face became so serious I wonder if I asked the wrong question.

I am not the one to tell you this, but I will do. Your father betrayed our pack, Whitewolf pack and the Blackwolf pack swore brotherhood to each other, your father got jealous of our power and decided to join hands with the smaller packs to kill all of us. He thought he killed us all but many of us survived and today we are going to revenge in front of you and everybody. I just stayed there, blinking and trying to fight back the tears clouding my eyes. I know he is capable of anything they said he did.

Before I could even say anything he dragged me up and started pushing me forward. I was finding it hard to walk, he walked up to me and bent down and used his claws to cut the rope tying my legs together.

He dragged the rope and started walking fast while I tried to catch up with him. We came outside and everyone was booing me and throwing stuffs at me.

Then we walked into a dungeon in front of one of the cages, I saw those two girls who were screaming Derek name and then I saw him, my supposed Mate standing in front of the Cage where my father was kept.

Derek, I said

He looked up, one of the girls looked at me with disbelief, probably wondering how I know Derek. Who is she to me? She quickly slipped her hands into his arms,

I didn’t know he has a mate already, I can’t believe I am even thinking of mate at this point

Derek is my enemy, and he plans on killing me and my packs.

He watched as the guard opens up the cage in front of my dad and threw me in.

As they were walking off I remembered Mel, I stood up and screamed where is my friend.

Her name is Mel, please I said. I don’t care if you plan on me anyway but I need to know where my friend is

The Red hair girl who appears to have something to do with Derek, maybe married to him told around, you mean your maid, she died while fighting to stop us from taking you.

No, no I said almost screaming. This can’t be happening.

I ripped her throat open, for coming at me.

Derek started walking off and she turned and quickly caught up to him and slide her hands into his arms again.

“Mel, died protecting me. I said almost in disbelief, she is dead all because of the man in front of me”. Everyone I love end up dying because of him first my mom, now Mel!

I looked at him, with so much hate he was looking down he seems to have accepted his fate he was hurt badly. And his wounds weren’t healing. I looked around and I could some of our packs were all locked up in different cage, they were all looking at me not saying anything but their eyes was filled with hatred like I caused all this.

I sat down slowly, Mel I cried as i called her name, she must have felt so much.

I kept crying for what felt like hours my head were hurting already but the tears couldn’t stop pouring down when I think of Mel and my Mom.

Some guards came and opened the cage that my father was in, and dragged him out. Then another opened my cage, and they started pushing us outside. We got outside the Dungeon and a lot of people were gathered like they were waiting for us.

They threw my dad down in front and all the crowd went wind some throwing anything their hands could touch at him. Then Derek walked up and all the crowd stopped.

Today, we avenge the death of Our loved ones, we avenge the death of My father and Our Nuna, three years ago. We watched as our homes burn to aches, we watched as our family burnt to ashes and we couldn’t help them but today the enemies will cry and beg for their forgiveness.

He walked up to my dad and used his claws to lift his head up. My father treated me so bad, but maybe it’s because I know he was going to die. I was crying and screaming for them not to kill him. If anything he is still my father.

As I cried and begged, everyone kept laughing and screaming kill them.

As she was still crying, her father looked up at her. He was murmuring something that sounded like I am sorry, but she couldn’t hear him.

Derek lifted his fingers and his claws shined brightly. With one strike, her father’s head rolled over the floor, his eyes looking at her sadly, blood were spilling everywhere from his headless body.

I screamed loudly, my body going into shock i fell down flat, my eyes closing slowly while someone picked my dad head and the crowd was screaming loudly and laughing. Everything went blank.
