A WEREWOLF AND AN EX CONVICT

RABBIT THIEVES

VICTOR HARRISON’S POV~

Angered by the news I just got, I snapped the messenger’s neck in two and tossed his body aside.

The others moved back in fear, good, it seems I still inspire fear in my subjects.

“What do you mean the council called for a meeting!” I thundered, “Without me!” I motioned for my Beta Elena Fellwood to lead the way.

“First a mere girl rejects me and runs away the night before our mating ceremony, that rogue Silas lays waste to my soldiers, and then I see that murderer here in my foundation! And now this! I won't stand for it!” I transformed my arm at will and smashed against the wall, bitter and angry. I craved vengeance.

“Sir I don't think we should go in your condition, this is the council we can't just…”

“Elena! Take us to that meeting right now! I will not be made to look like a fool in my kingdom, I rule fellwood forest! Me! And I will not entertain disrespect from old werewolves who no longer have value!” I stated.

She nodded and complied willingly, she led the way until we got to the car.

Just as I was about to get in, I saw my beloved running to me.

I quickly stepped out and she leapt into my arms, “my love” she started, her voice soothed my angered soul and I could feel the tension in my muscles relax from her touch.

“What’s happening? I heard the noise from your office, is everything okay? Is this about the b***h who ran away?” she asked in a worried tone, I smiled at her, and her beautiful eyes looked back at me, Valerie was the only woman in the world who loved me and I loved her back.

I traced her hair with my fingers and kissed her lips softly, “I'll be back soon I promise”

“You promised me if things didn't work out with her we’d get married, is that still true Victor, I can't hide this relationship anymore, people already see us together. My father..”

“Yes, yes Valerie, after today we go public, no more hiding, I want no other woman but you” I replied, I couldn't bear to hear the sad tone in her voice, she had suffered enough from the decisions of the council and it ends today.

I kissed her goodbye and set off for home, with her pheromones still lingering on my body, a comfort I ached to permanently have.

But my grandfather’s pack rules forbade a human spouse, a wolf must breed with its own, my father would always say.

Soon we approached the Fellwood forest, to ordinary eyes it was a vast forest with wild animals roaming free, no one would dare enter.

But unknown to ordinary humans it's cloaked by the most powerful Wiccans who resided with us.

As the entrance uncloaked the driver drove in and I could see pandemonium in the streets of my kingdom.

Most werewolves had taken to the streets demanding justice for their slain brethren, and then some Wiccans were preaching about the return of the scarlet wolf.

I encountered her on the night of the fire many moons ago. I touched my scared face. We have much to discuss before I remove her head from her neck.

The council was indeed in session when I arrived, “lord alpha we did not summon you…” Gabriel started but I interrupted by ripping his head clean of his neck with my powerful wolf limb that had transformed before getting there.

The blood spilt everywhere and the rest of the council gasped in horror, “You do not call a meeting without my say-so! Do you understand!” I thundered before flinging Gabriel's head across the silent room.

I was satisfied with my answer and as I turned to leave someone spoke and I recognised that voice anywhere.

It was Lana, the Wiccan, high priestess of the moon goddess.

“Your bloodline is not recognised by the moon goddess usurper!” she declared, I turned and glared at her, “You and your kin will never be legitimate, and as long as you cannot produce a pureblood heir, your position as lord alpha will always be challenged no matter how many of us you kill!” she roared in anger.

There was murmuring in the crowd, “When I give this council a pureblood heir, your head will be the first I sacrifice as a burnt offering to your moon goddess” I proudly announced before turning my back and leaving them in a frenzy.

I smashed my fist on the car bonnet, and it was totalled, as the smoke erupted my mind went to the runaway breeder that was promised to me.

My legitimacy is at stake, I can't afford to lose my position to anyone, death comes to all who try to take it from me.

I grabbed Elena’s arm and pulled her close, “find me James Frost or your head comes next!”

“Already did sir” she replied before loosening herself from my grip.

“He is not in Fellwood forest, and neither is his wife”

Anger boiled inside me, just what kind of game are the frosts playing?

First, their daughter murders my father and now, their other daughter runs away.

“Find them!”

“Sir we have a bigger issue” Elena started, I turned to her, “What do you mean?”

She gulped hard before replying, “The camera caught two robbers sneaking into the manor last night, they carted away with a lot of things sir, valuable things…” She paused before looking at me.

“What!”

“Including f***o”

My anger burst through the roof, who the hell steals a rabbit? “I want them found and killed immediately!”

BELLA FROST’S POV~

I opened my eyes and blinked twice before assimilating my surroundings, they looked familiar.

Wait, this is….

My old room, am I back home in Frost Manor, how did I get here?

Memories came rushing back, I remember being kidnapped.

The door flew open and he walked in, my stepfather and my mother followed closely behind.

“I see you are up, good” he started, “because we need to talk” he continued.

I glared at him, “You kidnapped me to talk? You couldn't call like a normal person. Are you crazy? Why am I back here?”

I turned to my mother who casually averted my gaze and found the hardwood floor a better appeal than her daughter.

“Both of You left me in prison to rot!” I exclaimed bitterly, “We have nothing to talk about James”

“Bella, just listen please” my mother pleaded and I raised my hand to her, “You forfeit the right to call my name Arya Frost, you are dead to me and I'd like to leave”

“Well that won't be happening, because you are never leaving the fellwood forest again, we have no choice but it's what is best for the pack, and for our family” James started.

“What the hell are you talking about?”

“You have to replace your sister and marry the Alpha lord as his new Luna”

I froze in shock, my words failed me and I felt breathless as I nearly collapsed to the floor.

Marry the man who accused me of murder and sent me to prison?

“Over my dead body!”
