Lit on fire

    "S-storm?" I ask of the darkness, I hear the soft tapping of her claws as she slowly approaches me laying on her side she leans her large head against my chest and the pain in my neck gets slightly better.     "Freya you have to wake up" Her deep feminine voce says echoing off the blackness that surrounds us. I shake my head tears sparking in my eyes.     "I don't know how." I whimper feeling lost. Storm lifts her head and gives me a pointed look.     "We are in your head Freya all you have to do is listen to the sounds around you and fallow them out. We have people waiting for us when we wake up." I take a deep breath trying to calm my nerves as I strain my ears for any small noise I can pick up. At first all I can hear is a mild buzzing it was kind of annoying and I wanted it to go away. Looking back at storm for reassurance as I strain my ears harder I can hear muffled voices sounding like there arguing back and forth.     "Axel and alexander." I gasp my chest filling with hope. My wolf nods and stands back watching me. I close my eyes listening to there voices they slowly become more clear till I can hear what it is they are saying.     "So what happened exactly?" I hear alexanders voice snapping harshly. I mentally roll my eyes he has to be talking with Axel I wish he wouldn't snap at his brother its not his fault.        "I told you before I don't know when I got there some guy was leaving her in the middle of the woods her neck had his mark on it .."     "You didn't kill him then and there?" Alexander roars I hear things breaking and falling to the floor. I feel my body flinch at the loud noise. This isn't right they shouldn't be fighting like this, I try to open my mouth to say something but it doesn't want to work.     "What would you have me do? She was bleeding and unresponsive I thought the life of our mate was more important than our revenge at that moment." I heard Axel sight dejectedly. Again I try to speak and my body lets out a soft groan. I smiled inwardly before trying to speak for the third time.     "Stop fighting both of you." I groan out my voice harsh and raspy from lack of use.     "Freya?" I hear both of the boys ask. I can hear there soft foot falls as they come to the sides of the bed I'm laying on. I can feel each one grab one of my hands and squeeze tightly.     "Freya please baby say something again." I hear Alexanders strained voice ask me as someone's lips skim over the knuckles of my hand. I feel my lips turn up slightly in a small smile.      "Who the hell else could sound this sexy." I say laughing slightly at my own joke, I slowly start to open my eyes and see my two mates relief evident in there faces. I open my mouth again to say something and that's when I feel it. The sharp pain radiating out from my neck burning threw every fiber of my being. I let out a loud scream dropping the hands of the boys so that I can claw at the side of my neck.The boys take my wrists and pin me down my claws and hands covered in my blood from ripping my throat open. I vaguely hear one of the boys calling for help over my screaming as they look down on me terror in there eyes. An older woman with grey streaked hair and leathery skin rushes in pulling out a syringe and shoving axel out of the way.      "Move pup!" she barks loudly at Axel. I can tell the order and being called pup doesn't set well with him by how he snarls as he moves from my side. The woman looks down at me and gives a sympathetic smile.     "This may hurt a bit but its going to help." She says in a clam reassuring voice as I feel the needle prick in my skin, a warmth starts to spread from where she gave me the injection replacing the lightning in my veins with the equivalent of boiling water. She was right it did hurt but it was a pain I was used to and one that I could handle.     "What did you give her?" Axel asks his voice still tight from trying to control his wolf from taking over. I watch as the medic glanced at him her eyes shifting erratically. I knew she was afraid to answer she had just disrespected her alpha by shoving him out of the way and on top of that gave his mate one of the substances a wolf should never have.     "Wolfes bane." I groan out softly.The hate I watch ignight in there eyes was terrifying, both sets of eyes turned black any form of love, or reilef that they hade momentarily felt was gone now. Axel startd to sprout frur all ovr his body as his face began to lengthen in to a muzzle one that was snarrling and dripping copious amounts of saliva as a bone chilling roar is let out from his chest. Alezander wasnt in any better condition. He didnt fight the change just let his beast out and slowly stalking forward tward the medic backing her in to the wall with every slow measured step he takes. I could smell her fear wafting off of her as she coweres against the wall her fear making me sick to my stomach. I force myself out of bed with a loud undignified cry of pain and I crawl in front of her sheilding her with my body from my two very pissed off mates. I throw my arms out wide protecting her with all of me making Axel and Alexander stop mid step.      -Move Freya!- I heard them both growle at me threw our mind link. I shake my head not moving from my position blocking them from the medic.     "She helped me I'm not letting her get ripped appart bey the both of you." My voice is soft and holds less conviction than I want it too. I can feel my sweat dripping down my face making my eyes burn as the wolfsbane burns its way threw me.     -She gave you poison- Axel snarrles the fur on the back of his neck standing up as another growle rips fron his chest. I couldnt deny that she had given me something that could have killed me and I understood there anger with them but the point is that it had helped, it's not a permanent solution and I doubt if the boys would let her any where near me again if I could get her out of this alive. I turn my head looking at her out og the corner of my eye.     "Whats your name?" I asked her softly.     "Heather." Was her quiet squeak of a reply.     "Heather did what she had to to help me now back off please let her go." I watch as both Axel and    Alexander looked at one another persumably havint their own quiet conversation, I took the time i was given and shoved the medic tward the door and wrapping my weakend body around the large wolves in front of us.     "Run!" I shout as loud as I can at her. "And lock the door behind you." I didnt have to tell her twice she tore out of the room half crawling half running out of the room when I heard the door slam I let my mates go I listened as more things were shoved against the door I assume it is in atempt to keep the very pissed off wolves from leaving before they have calmed down. Axel and Alexander ran after her slemming in to the door over and over again trying to get to there prey. I slowly sink to the floor and wait for them to burn off their anger. Sometime after I took my seat on the floor my world gose black again and it feels as though I am floating, drifting along the river that is my consciousness, however as I float my throat starts filling with fire yet again.      -The wolfsbane must have worn off- I think to myself as fear wraps its icy hands around my heart.      -Please goddess make it stop- I thought sending up an un heard prayer. I cant stand the pain any more I just want all my suffering to end. This couldnt be it could it? This isnt all that the moon goddess had planned for me right a life full of hardships and pain? If this was all she made me for just some punching bag at the end of some cosmic joke then the moon goddess is a bigger b***h than I thought.     "Contrary to popular beleif young wolf I dont tend to meddle in peoples lives." I hear a strong regal voice say to me from deep in my darkness a little bit of shapness in her speech.     "Who the hell are you?" I shout as much as Ican my vice sounding soft and yet it echos around me.     "Oh of heavens sake!" I her her cry out in an exasperated sigh before two quick claps rang out and the space I was stuck in illuminated its self. Standing before me is a tall woman about 6'6" with flowing waist length red hair and sharp purple eyes that watch me closly, laying next to her with her head burried in her paws is my wolf storm.     "You and I need to have a conversation."
