Death Wolf Saga
Death Wolf Chapter 25

The next morning the storm subsides and Volkan holds her up in his arms, making his way towards the pack.

“I…I don’t want to go back…”

She says, clutching his shirt in her fists. And he looks down at her, coldly.

Her brown eyes almost pleading him.

It is understood. The way she was punished. No one will want to return. But she didn’t had an option.

“So what do you want. Me leaving you here.”

She doesn’t say anything lowering her eyes and he pulls her up, almost making her shriek .

“First you don’t accept the rejection….and come to my office looking like sh*. Then I go for 24 hours to find you punished and thrown out of my pack for being a slu. And now that I cone here and endanger my life to save your pathetic a*s. You ask me to leave you here, to die again.”

She bites her l*p, stopping herself from uttering profanity at him. It’s not that anything of this was her choice.

“What happened now? Cat got your tongue?”

He raises his eyebrow at her. And she opens and closes her mouth to finally speak.

“It’s all your fault!”

“You rejected me! You forgot to give me a pardoning order! You left me…when they…when they were whipping me.”

He scoffs , looking down at her in disbelief.

“Oh really was I who first betrayed my mate by sleeping with another man.”

“Left you? You could have atleast mindlinked me once! Was it that difficult huh?”

She gulps, lowering her eyes.

“Or was it that your ego that stopped you from asking my help?”

She breathes heavily, a tear sliding down her eye. She didn’t have the disease called ego….she called it self respect.

“My ego? My ego …when you rejected me because…I am weak….when…I even kneeled…in front of you?”

He rolls his eyes, her tears doing nothing to him.

“Just stop with this drama of yours. We go back and you continue your maid duties….and start serving the Queen personally. Understood?”

She cleans her tears… thrashing in his arms.

“Let…let me down.”

He tightens his grip, making more tears to leave her eyes.

“You keep forgetting your rules Omega. I asked you something.’

He grunts at her lowly, as she pushes him again. To have him leave her. Making her fall down with her a*s hitting the floor.

“Ahhhh you assho**!”

She cries, and he crouches down at her level. His eyes burning holes into her skull.

” You haven’t seen how much of an asshol** I can be sweetheart.”

She winces at the endearment and he grabs her chin, making her look up at him. The tears in her eyes doing nothing inside him.

“Now answer my previous question. Are your duties understood?”

She again refuses to answer, making his grip on her chin to tighten further.

“Am I understood Thora?”

His Alpha tone making her oblige immediately. She couldn’t go against his command, even if she wished to.

To weak to defy an Alpha.

And not just any Alpha, but the Alpha King.

“Yes…”

He raises his eyebrow, asking her to complete it. And she spits out with gritted teeth.

“Yes Sir”

He leaves her chin. Immediately. Getting up.

Cursing she tries to get up to only fall back….her legs still too weak to lift her weight. Not to forget the frost bite that has developed on her foot.

He looks back at her struggling, but doesn’t move forward to help her.

Few minutes pass and they see Jason and the medical team approaching as per his orders.

But what he didn’t expect was to see Charlotte standing there.

A manteau wrapped around her as she waited for him.

Her eyes filling with relief as soon as they stop on him, to only harden seeing Thora behind him.

“Volkan!”

Exclaiming she runs forward, throwing herself on Volkan. And he catches her, enjoying the heated stare on his back.

While Jason and the medical team approach Thora, assessing her injures .

Jason kept asking her if she was fine and she barely nods, her eyes fixed at the couple standing in each other’s embrace.

Charlotte held Volkan’s face in her palms and he smiles back at her… displaying his dimples.Thora felt something break in her chest.

He never smiled at her like that ….the only expression he gives on seeing her is disgust.

Lowering her eyes, she refrained from seeing them. But the words…they were ringing in her ears.

“I was so afraid Volkan….I thought something may happen to you.”

“I am fine Char… don’t worry.”

She clenches her fists. He allows her to call him by his name and even gave her a nickname….while he only refers to her as the omega and orders her to call him Sir.

“I am so sorry….I swear I will never do something like that again.”

She says, lowering her eyes and he nods. Gently placing his finger on her chin and tilting it up.

“Apology accepted. But not before I punish you.”

He says in a playful tone. And something dies in Thora’s chest as she sees him placing his lips on her.

She couldn’t help look up at them, to believe it.

More tears streaming down her eyes. As her grip tightens on her clenched fists.

They seemed to be in a heated k**s….and the longer they kissed…the more Thora engraved her nails in the palms of her hand.

Drawing out her own b***d.

“Thora! What are you doing!’

Jason exclaims, placing his hand on her palms. And she looks at him absent-minded.

“Huh?”

“Nothing… nothing..I am fine. Let’s go.”

He nods, knowing what it was. But doesn’t question her. The medical staff, supported her. As she limped , going inside.

Looking back at the couple one last time.

To see Volkan chuckling with Charlotte but as soon as his eyes stop at Thora.

He gives her a cold stare and Thora lowers her eyes.

Detest and Hared.

These were the only things she could see in his eyes for her and she for the first time.

Considered the thought of accepting the Rejection.

Maybe he will be more happy with her.

Maybe mating them was a mistake.

And rejection, the only solution to it.

……..

Thora’s pov

I was taken to the medical room and I was surprised to see a patient already present there.

The little girl with big blue eyes I saw earlier.

She is holding onto the bed sheet tightly as the doctor attended to a small cut on her knee, the girl cries when the cotton dab touches her skin.

“Ahh it hurts ! It hurts! Call uncle! You all are hurting me!”

“Princess Elora! Calm down! It’s just a cut! Your uncle will be really worried if he comes to know! “

“No! I …I want him! Uncle!!”

I was surprised to see Jason rush towards her, trying to calm her but she refuses.

“Princess calm down princess Elora! It’s just a cut see…”

“Nooooo! It hurts! It hurts!”

Jason asks the doctor. Looking concerned himself.

“What happened? How did she got hurt?”

“She fell down Beta. I am trying to stop the b***d… it’s better now.”

“Do you want me to inform the Alpha?”

The doctor asks and Jason stops him.

“No. It’s going to be fine.”

But the girl, she refuses to calm down. Her beautiful eyes pooling with tears.

“Ahhh no! Nooooo!”

I rushed forward, seeing the girl almost fall down from the bed. Holding her hands, I whisper gently.

“Hi Elora”

The girl stops crying immediately, looking up at me with big wide eyes.

“Remember me?”

She nods, looking up at me in admiration.

“Friend?”

I nod and next I know, the girl jumps in my arms. Crying hysterically.

“Friend! Where were you! I searched everywhere for you! Please save me! They….they are hurting me!”

Everyone looks at me surprised.

Me being unaware that.

Elora never talks to others….let alone jump into their arms.

Everyone failing to understand the relation between the two.

“Hey sweetie. Calm down. I am here. We will stop it from hurting.”

I struggles to walk , but don’t keep Elora down. Jason moves forward to help me, to only be stopped by me.

Nodding at him, I tells him I can manage.

I settles down on the bed, and take the cotton dab from the doctor’s hand.

“Can friend see it.”

Elora, nods reluctantly, hiding herself in my chest. Making the impact to hurt my back, as I was barely sitting.

Breathing heavily, I assesses Elora’s injury. The b***d was not stopping and I suddenly remembers what the girl said when we first met.

“The doctor’s…they say I am sick! If I get hurt…I don’t heal.”

“The doctor’s…they say I am sick! If I get hurt…I don’t heal.”

The doctor interrupts my thoughts and I looks up surprised.

“It will stop. I have given her the injection. It’s just that the anticeptic is to be applied.”

I nod, rubbing circles on Elora’s back.

“It will hurt like a ant prick. Okay sweety. Just hold me tightly.”

The girl nods, hugging me tightly. Making me take a sharp intake of breath.

Sh**!

The whip marks ..they have started bleeding under the jacket. But I don’t say anything.

Letting Elora hold me.

Jason and others took notice of this, and admire the girls selflessness.

The one who cares so much for others ..who survived such brutal punishment….. can’t be weak.

Jason can see how much of a blunder Volkan has done by rejecting this girl.

But doesn’t say anything.

I finish applying the anticeptic and Elora , doesn’t cry. She stays in my embrace, trusting me.

“Don’t leave me friend. They hurt me.”

I k**s her head, smiling down at her.

“I won’t.”

“But Thora we need to attend to-“

“Later Bera Jason. I am sure I can hold on for few minutes more.”

I say, the girl needed me more right now.

Jason sighs at me, but agrees.

“Fine. We will return in few minutes.”

They leave, and Elora relaxes. Pulling back and smiling at me.

“Thank you friend! You saved me!”

I nod, but the little girls eyes were fixed at something else. She stares at the bruise on my neck in concern.

Her small fingers moving forward to touch my neck….

“You…you are hurt friend.”

I try to hide it under my shirts collar. Smiling sadly at her.

“It’s nothing Elora.”

However the girl couldn’t be convinced so easily. Her next words making my eyes to widen.

“It’s not nothing friend. You…you were rejected.”

I was shocked would be an understatement. Even the adults couldn’t tell this….how did this little girl know it?

“How….how do you know?”

I ask, my heart audible in my ears as the girl sadly whispers with eyes filling with tears.

“It’s…. it’s the begining friend.”

“You are….you are going to be summoned by him.”

I chuckle, disregarding it. She is just a kid….I am sure she is just assuming.

“It’s just a bruise Elora. I am going to be fine.”

Elora doesn’t return my smile. Placing her small palms on my cheek. She speaks.

“It’s not friend. I saw the picture in the book…it looks same like this…every rejected girl has it ……you….you are you to be summoned by him….”

“By whom?”

I asks with my heart thudding in mh chest ,to only freeze listening to her reply.

“The…death wolf”

“He is calling you.”

And that’s when the voices I heard earlier…the dark clouds…..they started making sense.

“No…it can’t be….it was just a prophesy…how can it be true?”

I whisper in disbelief to have Elora look at me……her innocent blue orbs suddenly darkening to a dark shade of black, and I stumble back afraid .

“Don’t be scared friend.”

Elora’s innocent sweet voice changing to a heavy voice, resembling the one I heard in the attic that night….how….who is this possible?

.Her next words making me to go numb to my senses.

“You are the one he has been waiting for.”

And that’s it, Elora’s eyes change back to blue and the innocent girl goes unconscious dropping back and I rush to hold her.

“Elora!”

I screams, to only find her asleep with fatigue.

Relief flooding in.

Thank God she is fine!

Holding her tightly, I k**s her forehead. The realisation hitting me badly.

The voice….it was……..The death wolf…….. it was not a prophesy.

But a reality.

The thought alone, making a shudder to run down my spine.

The fear of unknown, worse than any fear I have ever known before.
