Nightmare: Mate Of The Lycan King

Eliana's Pov (Story reading. Final Chapter). Consumed by uncontrollable rage from the scene..the King rampaged through winter pack, eyes burning with betrayal, he had discovered treachery among the Alpha's in that pack.. however fury clouded judgement. The lost of his family controlled his thoughts and he didn't search for quilt. he hunted all. Claws ripped through flesh indiscriminately. howls of fear and pain raising into the night, cubs, elders, traitors and royal wolves alike fell beneath his wrath. The air thickened with silence..when the madness faded, only corpses remained, guilty and innocent piled alike... Alone and trembling, the king stood, a beast undone by his own fury. The forest was silent,save for the ragged breathing of the king, he staggered into the clearing too late, the air was thick with blood and ash, the scent of his slain kin burning into his soul...and the broken bodies of his mate and pups lay twisted beneath the moonlight. His eyes widened in horror as he beheld the scene before him. his warriors slain. He dropped to his knees, claws digging into the blood soaked earth. A low animalistic groan escaped his chest, building into a mournful wail that echoed through the mountains...a sound no beast or man could bear to hear... He creawled to them, hands trembling as he lifted his mate's lifeless body into his arms, cradling her as if warmth could return to her cold flesh. Her fur was matted with blood,her eyes vacant...once warm now forever cold..! "No"...he choked..".no...no,no.." He clutches her close , burying his face in her neck as if his breath could bring her back. His pups lay nearby... Small, silent and still. He reached for them , pulling their tiny bodies into his embrace. The great Lycan King,feared across the realms wept openly... moaning their names through gritted teeth... " You were my heart..my world.." he whispered. " They will pay for this..I swear it" But vengeance was for tomorrow... night, he moans... " I should have protected you...I should have died with you" his claws clenched, trembling with grief and fury. the scent of death chocked him yet he could not look away. Tears cut through the dirt on his face as he buried his muzzle into his mates fur, rocking back and forth.. The king of beast now broken... moaning not in rage , but in soul deep sorrow that would never fade... a broken father cradling everything he had lost... the moon bore witness to his pain... However, a faint whimper echoed sharply...he turned. breath caught, eyes wide... beneath a slain warrior's cloak,his daughter blinked up at him, terribly injured but alive. Hope pierced his sorrow like down through endless night . He returned to his pack with the corpses of his mate, two sons , and the only survivor, Cleo his youngest cub... King Ronan's actions could not be left unpunished thus as a consiquence for breaking the rules and spilling guiltless blood..! " Ronan was imprisoned for good". >> Hmm...this ending cracks something deep in me as I closed the final page. The characters I loved were gone, their pain breaks my heart..."NIGHTMARE....Sure is a tragedy"..... Lost in thought, my phone rings "we've got a situation.....Eliana, report to my office A.S.A.P". "Yes sir" I answered, grabbing my car keys...I slammed the phone into my bag ... snatched my coat and tucked a gun into my waistband .I stormed out, flung open my car door and slid behind the wheel. the engine roared ,tires screeched..and i drove on. Detective Bogo stood before the five teams, voice sharp and commanding " Team one, canvas the neighborhood....door to door. I want eyes on every corner. Team two. Pull the surveillance footage within 12-block radius. Team three, track all know associates and recent contact of the victim. Team four comb though phone records, financial, Anything off...I want flagged. Team five coordinate the forensics at the scene. No loose ends".... "This is the minister's life. move fast, stay sharp, and report in every 30 minutes. let's bring the minister back home" The room scattered into motion..the hunt had just begun... " Eliana..go undercover, someone knows more than there saying...get close, Find out who... quietly." order clear....I moved out. "Eliana!"... Detective Bogo called out again, "be careful" I acknowledge with a subtle smile and a gentle nod before dashing out I drove across the bridge that late at night...when it appeared right in the middle of the road... Tall, pale with long limbs and eye like fire...I swerved hard to avoid it , slammed the brakes but I lost grip. the car smashed the railings like paper...I felt silence before the crash.... I remember the air rushing in, the scream caught in my throat as I plunged into the river...What the f**k was that They may call this accident, but it isn't.... that thing wanted me off the bridge. The Cold hits me like a wall as the river swallows the car...I tried hard to move my limbs but it became heavy, useless. nervous, I kicked the door , teeth gritted, I remembered, my task, the minister's case , mr.Bogo....but then the earth blurred...I kept fighting, kicking, clawing refusing to die silently. And through the murky water, I see her "mama"... she's standing in the light calling my name softly...her arms open...with kindness in her eyes.... Am not scared anymore as the river pulls me under...I pass out....
