His Mortal Lover

Chapter 5

The lycan towered over me, snarling with its pitch white teeth gleaming in the sunlight. His gaze was deadly, his eyes alone could send this whole world to flames.

"Show me your coven, Vamp." The voice said again, gentle claws scraping the outside of my brain, chilling my bones. I was shaking, more wolves showed up, they were on all 4's besides two other lycan's. My heart was racing like a caged rabbit and I know they could sense it as they licked their maws, snarling devilishly.

"Gladly! I'm not a vampire... they kidnapped me!" I rasped, my breath was getting caught in my throat. Another black lycan stalked against the other, there was something different about this one though. His eyes were pale grey, almost white. He leaned close and sniffed. After his thorough examination he looked at the other Lycan, none were growling anymore.

"She's human... but she smells... familiar." Another voice entered her head. She pieced together, as said in a mythological book she read from front to back, werewolves talk telepathically, since talking would look weird in a wolf form. "She also smells like a vampire so why should we believe her?" The first black wolf snarled. The second one was way bigger than the others, it was logical that he was the leader.

"I think you're nose is broken. She clearly smells like those walking corpses." The smaller Lycan challenged. "Luther, Axel, knock it off." A female voice hissed. Her voice was like chocolate, silky and smooth. Both the male Lycan's snapped their heads to her before the Biggest one slowly turned its gaze to me. His eyes looked considering, before that deathly growl erupted once more. "You're right Luther... I think it's time I move on from our loss." The large wolf, now known as Axel seethed in my head. She would have thought his voice was the most attractive of them all, if she wasn't about to be mauled by them.

Then, he charged. Lunging toward her in swift movements that wasn't animalistic at all. Before I knew it was I pinned to the ground with jaws inches from my throat. "Any last words, vamp?" He sneered, those claws were now gripping her brain, giving her a huge headache. I had only once option.... And I hoped it worked.

I screamed.

"You let her go?!" I roared, Rebecca trembling under my raised fist. My blood was boiling, I could feel the anger rising like fire in a dry forest. "M-My lord! I couldn't stop her! She was suffocating here, I felt so bad I just..." I growled cutting off her sentence before turning around and hitting the wall.

"If the werewolves find her, she will SURELY tell them where this place is." I seethed, my eyes turning red to resemble the growing rage coursing through my blood. Rebecca only shrunk more. I was breathing heavily. God what was she thinking??

Then I heard it, a high pitched scream. I snapped my gaze to the tree line. It was coming from there, which could only mean one thing. Rebecca must have realized it too as she gasped and cupped her mouth. "f**k Luna...." I gritted before whisking to the tree line. My shadows teleporting me at the bushes before I ran straight into the enemy's direction.

Luna... Luna... Luna... The shadows whispered. Like poison her name enveloped my mind. Luna... They said. Louder and louder they chanted like a wicked spell. With each shout of her name, my blood bubbled, my eyes darkened, and my body ran faster and faster despite the protest in my legs.

If she was hurt... if she was killed...

Luna!

I roared as I saw Axel, the Lycan prince hovering over Luna, his jaws inches from her jugular. "GET OFF HER!" I bellowed before ramming into the Lycan.

Luna... I punched

Luna.. I slammed my fist into its jaw

LUNA. I roared as I punched after every note of her name the shadows called. I was seeing red, my fist a blur as I fought off every wolf that tied to stop me. Axel tried to pry me off but I wrapped my shadows around his wrists and torso, restraining movement. Luna shivered against a tree, her Dark Blonde hair blood stained. He had hurt her before I could get here...

I roared as I threw Luther against a tree. Soon more vampires joined me, a war broke up. My most skilled warriors fighting side by side to back the wolves into their territory. Some wolves whimpered and ran away, retreating to their pack lands. But the Lycan royals remained.

I was in a one on one combat with the female Lycan Maria, she was fast and strong, almost the same strength as Luna... I connected a blow to her muzzle and she bellowed in pain before drawing back, her claws out as she glared at me with her violet eyes. "What's wrong? Slowing down?" I chuckled deeply striking a nerve. She lunched for me again before I threw her further away. She staggered up before growling lowly at me, her power emanating out of her. The Royals banded together, forgetting their fight as losing their sister was not worth the risk.

"Give up." I commanded, their snarls equally matching my tone. "And do not return here... or I will not hesitate to kill you. Let this be your warning." I said coldly, making sure to get my point across. Around me my soldier roared in victory. Luna.. she was at the very back, looking at me. Her brown eyes wide as saucers, glossed with fear and shock.

They lycans only snarled an stalked away, a whisk of Axels voice saying. "This isn't over." I turned and nodded to my warriors as they ran back to the Mansion, to celebrate their victory with a fest... not of just food, but the blood bags will be needing extra care later. I stalked to Luna, grabbing her wrist and shoving it in the air beside her head. "The f**k were you thinking?" I snarled, my anger wasn't prominent, if anything, I wasn't angry...

I was scared.
