Skyler
I can feel him watching me and I know that I cannot let myself get attached, it won’t end well for either of us. He can’t change where I’m supposed to be in a year, he can’t change my fate. I hear the announcer call the participants forward and first up is Ryker. Just as she is about to begin, I notice that sickly smell of rotten flesh and I know that with all of these people present I cannot change into Silverclaw.
I must fight these rogues in human form. We have practiced this a million times in our training grounds back home. We are trained as assassins for this very reason, to kill rogues and protect all Alpha’s. Ryker and I exchange a glance and I nod my head giving her the okay to unleash her powers. Tonight, there will be no coming back for either of us. We have to protect everyone. Soon the fight breaks out and I’m killing one rogue after another and my stupid mate is trying to get to me. If he doesn’t stay away, he will end up dead as well.
Yelling to him I scream, “Get back otherwise you will get hurt as well. Trust me I am fine, and I can handle them.”
“Skyler, we need to shift otherwise we won’t do much damage,” Silverclaw says.
“We can’t Alpha’s orders remember?” I sneer back to her.
I almost missed Alpha Jordan’s command when he mind links me, “Shift! Damnit Skyler shift now!”
I gladly oblige shifting into my wolf with silver tipped claws. If I have silver anywhere else on my body, it burns but I was born with silver tipped claws and I know that when I attack, they die. Growling happily, I take off slaughtering rogues in my path.
“Ryker where the hell are you?” I link to her, but I don’t sense her. It’s been an hour since the Rouges appeared and it’s a f*****g bloodbath. I can feel that my mate is safe and as well as Alpha Jordan, but not Ryker.
“I’m near the East border. Hurry I need help there is a Witch here.” Ryker cries before the link is cut.
“Silverclaw, we need to move now!” I howl in panic. Racing to the East I see her being held down by thick black chains and a silver dagger pointed at her heart. In one last panic effort I managed to take the Witch down but not before the dagger plunges into my chest and everything goes black.
Unknown Pov
I’ve been watching this little wolf for the past 24 years and I know that soon that little wolf will be mine. I was the one who first created the white wolf with silver paws and silver tipped claws. I made a deal with the Goddess to take a wolf every 500 years to keep the bloodline going. Because I created the strongest wolf known to the supernatural’s that they are targeted just for their powers.
When I created this wolf, I was lonely. I gave them the chance to live life until they are 25 and to mate and produce an heir and once the time came, they would have to give up their wolf to live with me or spend the next 500 years fighting me so I wouldn’t kill all supernatural’s. So, here I am currently in the shadows watching my little creation, when I noticed a Witch that wasn’t supposed to be here.
Anger floods my body nobody takes what is mine. Before I can act that little wolf kills the Witch. Smiling I watch as this wolf takes a dagger to the heart just to save its little friend. Soon little wolf you will be mine, I think as I fade back into my world.
Ryker
All hell breaks loose as I step up to start the final segment for today. "Those Bloody Rogues," Ray snarls as I feel her pushing to be let out.
"Why the hell have Rogues attacked twice in one day?" I ask as I let Ray take over.
"Beats the hell out of me. But I'm glad I get to tear some Rogues apart," Ray laughs bitterly charging headfirst into the fight. Killing Rogue after Rogue I make my way to Alpha Jordan to get him out of here since that is what my job entails while I am here. Before I can reach him a damn Witch appears out of nowhere throwing silver knives and daggers. s**t!
I feel Skyler trying to link me but I'm way too busy dodging the silver to pay much attention until I hear Skyler say through our link, “Ryker where the hell are you?”
“I’m near the East border. Hurry I need help there is a Witch here.” I cry out still dodging the Witch's attacks. Next thing I know is I am being held down with thick black chains with a f*****g silver dagger pointed at my heart and then I see Skyler take the dagger to her chest right before she kills the Witch.
The chains disappear and I get up shaking my coat out I link Alpha Jordan, "Alpha, Skyler has been hit in the chest with a silver dagger. What do you want me to do?" "
Bring her inside and start treating her. And you better hurry before her mate gets to her."
Zander
Rogues are the worst. They smell like rotten flesh and decay. It's been over an hour since they first appeared and for the life of me I cannot find my mate.
"Mate hurt," whimpers Kevin, "Must find Mate."
That's when we both feel a pain in our chest. Crying out I fall over and shift back into my human self. Checking myself over I realize that I'm not the one stabbed.
"We need to hurry and find mate," whimpers Kevin. "
I know damn it, just give me a minute to get back up and we will go find her." Sighing I stand up and start sniffing the air trying to catch her sent. Following her trail I notice a pile of ash with a dozen silver daggers laying around. That's when I see a trail of blood leading to the dorms.
"Max! Jason!" I link my Beta and Gamma "Meet me at the dorms. There was a Witch here with silver daggers. We need to contact my father and ask for help from the king. Right now my mate needs me."
"Yes Alpha!" Was the only response I received before I cut the link racing the the dorms. Snarling I burst the doors down until I come face to face with a very pissed off Beta from the Silvertip Point.
"Move!" I snarl pushing past him to see my mate with a dagger in her chest. "NO!" Is all I can say before I sink to the floor on my knees. I feel a hand on my shoulder and I look up to see Alpha Jordan.
"Do not fear Alpha Zander for she is going to be fine." Alpha Jordan says in a calm voice, "If you want to stay then please be quiet and let Beta TJ do what he is best at and heal Skyler." I nod slowly and move to go sit in a chair my the window not taking my eyes off of her.
"How many times has this happened?" I ask in a small voice.
"Only once before" was the only reply I received before I fall asleep waiting for her to wake up.
