The Fallen

Chapter 3

Jessie

    As I drove home, Cedar was getting agitated. We both hated being in vehicles but this was getting annoying. So i started driving a little faster and I rolled down the windows, so it kind of made him think we were just taking a run in the forest. This helped him settle down a little. But as I drove I didn't notice the cop until it was too late. I sped right past him and i looked in the rear view mirror and noticed the cop pulling out and turning on his lights and sirens. I sighed and pulled over before he could even start after me. He pulled up behind me and got out and started to walk towards my vehicle. I looked at Cedar and saw how irritated he was becoming. I told him to fake sleep and don’t say anything. When the officer got up to my car he looked at us and started speaking.

“Good evening ma’am.” He said.

“Hello officer.” I said.

“Ma'am, do you know why I pulled you over?” He said sounding irritated.

“Yes officer, I was going 105 mph in a 60 mph zone.” I replied in my most calm voice I could muster up.

“Ma'am, why were you in such a rush?” he asked.

    “Honestly officer, It’s four in the morning, I’m so tired, there's no hotel for miles and our house is just five miles away. There's no traffic, barely any people out on the road here. If it was not against the law i would’ve pulled over to sleep. But it is against the law. I’m sorry for sounding irritated I’m Just tired and i want to get home.” I replied, hoping to get out of a ticket. 

“Well ma’am i'll just let you off with a warning but if i catch you again speeding, i will have to give you a ticket.”

“Yes, Officer and thank you.”

    I wait until he was in his vehicle and i drove off at the speed limit. I looked in the mirror and noticed him following me. five miles down the road i turned into our dirt driveway into the forest and i noticed the officer followed like he didn’t know this was a driveway. Now i was getting pissed. He’s trespassing on my property. I pulled up to my house and the officer kept coming. I shook Cedars arm and to my surprise he actually fell asleep, when he woke up he looked around and noticed that we were home, he was about to open the door when i touched his shoulder and mouthed “the officer followed.” He then looked out the window and saw the officers car. I opened my door and climbed out and started to walk towards the officer who was getting out of his car. 

“May I help you officer? you’ve been following me since I left you. Is there anything else I could do for you?”

The officer started to walk towards me and when he got to me he pushed me down on to the ground. I started to get annoyed that this human thinks he can push me around but before I could even get up he put his foot on my chest.

“If you try to get up I will blow your head off.” He declared

“What do you think you're doing!?” I growled.

“I was bored so I decided why not have a little fun with you. You live out in the middle of nowhere no one would expect anything.”

    He then made me hit my head so hard on the ground that I got dizzy for a second. But in that second he managed to rip my top off. He obviously doesn’t see my stomach bulging a little with a child in me. But also its clear to me that he didn’t see Cedar in the passenger seat. So I decided why not be a little girl and… I screamed. That got the door to my car flying open and Cedar rushed out and literally flung the officer off of me. Cedar was already agitated from the car ride and now he finds out that the officer is trying to r**e his already pregnant wife!

    I wasn’t going to stop Cedar from attacking the officer, why should I? He just tried to r**e me. As i watched Cedar attack the officer I noticed something watching us in the woods. I stepped closer to get a better look and i noticed a brown wolf just sitting there staring at us. I recognized this wolf, it was Otter, the sly pack member that Cole uses to spy on other pack members when he doesn’t trust some pack members. Which means he’s spying on me and Cedar. So who does he not trust? he just made me Luna, could he be spying on me to see what I do in my free time. 

    I went back to watching Cedar beat the s**t out of the officer. The officer had moved into the fetal position, to try to save his life. But he should just let Cedar kill him now because if he keeps this up he will have his head ripped right off of him. I hoped Otter enjoyed the show, he can report back to Cole that Cedar had killed an officer. Well that may look bad on his reputation to the pack but, hey he’s my husband, even though the pack doesn’t know that and they don’t need to know that yet. 

    Cedar picked up the officer then, and pretty much just chucked him against a tree. All I heard from the officer was a scream and then a “crack” the officers back had been broken when he hit the tree. I looked at the officer who was still moving. Damn he should just stay down and play dead then maybe Cedar will hold off on the torture. Now, since he's trying to get up, he has a whole other round coming to him. I should probably stop Cedar, but this is way too entertaining. I kinda want to get in on it, but if I do Cedar might go against me in his blind rage. So I sat down against a tree and ignored the fact that Otter was getting his eyes filled with our somewhat secret life in a house and not an apartment.  I’d worry about Otter after the brawl between Cedar and the officer. 

    I sat there for a good hour watching Cedar throw and somewhat rip at the cop. It’s sad actually he has been keeping the officer alive this whole time not even ending the torture he’s giving him. Then I noticed something else in the corner of my eye. A radio, that was bad, this radio looked like it has a tracker on it and it was blinking. The officer was being tracked at this moment and at this time. Which meant Cedar had to either leave him alone or kill him now and we flee into the forest or we get caught by the officers.

“Ced…”

    The sirens of other officers broke the air. My head snapped to the driveway and I saw headlights. I ran towards Cedar, I grabbed the officer by his head and tore it right off his body, then i grabbed Cedars arm, and pulled him into the forest. Cedar was still in his blind rage so I got hit a few times, but nothing I couldn't handle. When he came to, he noticed we were not on the driveway but in the forest. He wanted to know why we were here.  You see Cedar has no clue what he’s doing when he’s in a blind rage nor does he remember anything. So all I did was point to where the cops that had arrived five minutes ago and to the dead body the cops were trying to investigate while others were just searching the border line of the forest. 

    Cedar and i started to back up very slowly into the forest making sure we didn’t step on any bracken or fallen twigs or sticks. As soon as we were far enough into the woods to not be seen or heard we started to jog to the north where we had a cabin that would not be found by the cops. This cabin was at least 75 miles into the unknown forest. We’d make it to the cabin in the next four hours. 

    I made sure we lost Otter, i would start to argue with Cedar that the cabin was the other way knowing i was wrong, but we would go that way for a good 5 miles just for me to have to backtrack messing up our scents, I’d explain to Cedar what i was doing when we reached the cabin.

    Finally after eight long hours and at least 75 miles walked, jogged, or sprinted we made it to the cabin and I had explained to Cedar that Otter was spying on us so we had to lose him by making ourselves lost. Once we entered the Cabin we noticed that someone else was here before us, and this scent was not a pack member and it was fresh meaning this person who smelled like a wolf was staying here while the owners were gone. I searched the cabin for the person to realize that this person was not here. I walked back out to Cedar. 

“No one’s here.” I told him.

“The person must have went hunting or heard us coming and flead. Oh and by the smell of it. The person is male.” he said.

“It doesn’t smell like pack either” i said.

    “I know, We’ll wait here for him to return, if he does that is. Don’t turn on lights leave everything how it is and sit on the stairs to catch him walking into the house so once he sees me he can’t flee due to you blocking his way.” He ordered.

“Huh?!? Who made you Alpha!” I growled

“I was just thinking that if he saw a man he’d flee and never come back.” he whimpered.

    “Well think this. He enters the house sees a young, defenseless women, and thinks ‘hey, look an easy kill to actually keep this cabin.’ then he tries to come at me and I turn and look at him. He then becomes even more excited due to it being a female werewolf like him. that's where you come in. You jump down from the stairs and do a growl low enough to be threatening. He turns and well we’ll see what he does. get into position. we may be sitting here for awhile.” I ordered.

“ok.” he obeyed obediently.

we waited for a good two hours. we were exhausted, we hadn’t slept for two days and this guy thinks he can keep us waiting. Well he can, since he doesn’t know we are here.

    Once i heard rustling outside i knew our wolf was here. But then i heard others talking and messing around outside. This wolf thought that this place was completely abandoned and was bringing others to make a pack here. That was not going to happen. I looked up at Cedar and the look he was giving me told me that he already knew and this plan was not going to work unless we got extremely lucky.  But we had to go through with this plan because one had already opened the door and to my surprise hasn’t noticed me yet. They all filled in through the doors, there were at least five of them and they were going to have a big surp…

“What do we have here?” one said.

“huh?” another said and looked over.

“you brought a women here for us to play with Jeff?” he looked at a tiny little brown haired boy.

“No, she must be the owner of the place, I thought it was abandoned, i watched this cabin for at least five weeks and there was no action in it or around it, i thought it was completely abandoned.” He declared.

“Well now she's going to have to either leave or die. I prefer if she died so we can own this place for sure.” the tallest guy growled.

He started towards me and I kind of stood up and turned their way and backed up again. I decided I was going to go down fighting if i had to. so I did the most stupidest thing a girl could do when she is being cornered by five boys. I bared my fangs.

“This b***h is a werewolf!” the tallest claimed.

“Good that means we can have some fun with her.” the little boy said.

“Um guys…” the fourth one who hadn’t spoken yet said.

“What is it Henery?” the tallest asked.

“Look at her belly.” the fourth guy said.

“f**k! this b***h is already knocked up!” Said the tallest.

“If she is taken… ah… where is her…. Husband?” Said the third guy.

    They all started to back up when they heard a growl behind them. They whipped around eyes in shock when they saw Cedar. Cedar had taken the time to transform! We fight better in wolf form then we do in human form so i guess it was only right to turn. The guys started to back up and then the tallest stepped forward trying to show some form of dominance. Of course that was the worst thing for the guy to do at that    particular time.  since he was dealing with two alphas. The tallest guy, then spoke to the other four.

“Come on there's only two of them and five of us. We can take them!” he said.

    The others started forward and one came at me almost at full speed. I dodged him easily. Have you ever seen a pregnant women fight? Well it's quite funny actually. We have to learn our balance all over again in the fight. 

    Well this guy didn’t give up, he kept coming at me until I finally caught one of his punches and twisted his arm around his back pulling on it until I heard a loud “CRACK” the guy had fallen to the ground screaming while cradling his arm. 

    I looked over at Cedar who was doing a good job at taking on two of the other boys. The tallest and the shortest were both heading towards me. I tripped the youngest, and ended up pinned by the tallest. I noticed an opening and kicked him in the groin. He yelped and fell of me holding his groin like a little football player who was just tackled and was hit there. The smallest was up and coming straight for me as I got up. He was trying to punch me it seemed. So I caught his hand and switched my grip to his arm and flipped him over my shoulder onto the couch making him hit his head on the end table. I noticed I made him hit his head hard enough that he was knocked out for a good few hours. I then turned on the tallest guy. I kicked him in the head so hard that he also passed out. 

I turned to go help Cedar when i noticed he already had beaten the two he was taking on and was sitting on the floor watching me. He turned back while I was fighting.

“Good fight huh? Darling.” he lulled.

“the best in the last 6 hours.” I replied.

“So what are we going to do with this bunch of rascals?” he asked.

“Help me tie them up, i have an idea and you are going to go along with, whether you like it or not!” I declared.

    After we tied them up, we sat on the couch and turned on a movie. After several hours of movies the five guys were all finally awake. They couldn’t talk, we had also gaged them so they wouldn’t be able to yell and scream. Even though no one in the world would hear them, well no one other than us. 

    I paused the movie we were on, and got up and walked over to the five guys, I kneeled down next to them and undid the gags. I got up expecting them to start growling, screaming or swear up a storm but they just stared at me knowing they are out ranked and the leader, I noticed had his head down and not showing me any eye contact which means he’s being submissive to me. 

I looked over at Cedar and he just chuckled a little.  I walked up to Cedar and whispered in his ear.

“Do you think he will grovel to me, if I untied him?” I whispered.

“Go ahead and try.” Cedar whispered back.

    So I walked over to the leader of the group of boys and I untied his hands and feet and I sat down crossed legged on the floor.  He at first looked confused but as soon as he looked up at me and saw the glare in my eyes. He instinctively looked away, and looked at his pack. I gave a low growl in my throat warning him that if he did anything stupid he’d end up on the ground dead or severely injured.  But it’s obvious that this mutt has never been in a lower position in a pack before and didn’t know what to do. So i just did some sort of mix of a growl with a sigh and looked up at Cedar. 

    Was I going to humiliate my husband in front of random humans? No. But was I going to humiliate my husband in front of random werewolves? Yes, this showed dominance and who in the house was in charge. In my old pack if a wolf did something bad before the leader even knew they would grovel to the pack pet or Cedar since he was the alpha male. 

So as i stared at Cedar he looked away showing submission to me. I did a soft low growl at him and Cedar came down on his hands and knees and crawled up to me and started to lick my chin.

Yes it's humiliating to see an alpha grovel to another alpha in their human form but it gets the point across.

    The male that was free looked over at us, and knew what i wanted. he started to growl at me trying to tell me “like hell i'll do that to you!” I showed him no mercy. I got up and went straight at him. I grabbed his ear and twisted until he was on his back and I was straddling him. I had my hands on his neck about ready to choke him. 

“If you won’t grovel I might as well kill you since I find no use for a disobedient mutt.” I growled.
