Death Wolf Saga
Death Wolf Chapter 45

Thora’s pov

No! No! Please!

I stand there still as Daniel steps towards me, his footsteps heavy.

“What are you doing here fiore? Haven’t I told you to not go anywhere alone?”

My mouth runs dry, thank god! He looks back into the forest, where Volkan left.

To only settle his eyes back at me.

“N… nothing Dan. I was not feeling well. I…”

Concern covers his features as he steps towards me, holding my face in his palms to caress my cheek.

“Only 2 full moons are left fiore. You have to be more careful from now on.”

I nod. Looking down, not able to meet his eyes.

How do I tell him? Till now I have only seen Daniel’s soft side.

He will be so hurt..no I have to warn him before.

I have to tell him to be prepared for tomorrow.

“Dan?”

“Yes fiore?”

He says staring at the mark on my neck, to only trace it with his fingers.

“The werewolves….they are coming to attack tomorrow….they know I am the one.”

His hand stills,as he looks at me in disbelief.

“How? How do you know this?”

I couldn’t answer him. Not able to meet his eyes.

To only have him grab my shoulders, shaking them.

“Thora! I asked you something! How do you know it?”

“I…Dan…I…”

I couldn’t speak, tears streaming down my eyes. To only have him leave my shoulders, stepping back and cursing.

He runs his hands through his hair, pacing in worry.

“A wolf came here to warm me…he told me to be ready tomorrow.”

I say, not telling him that the person was no one other than Volkan.

“What? How can a person enter like this? Are you fine? Did he hurt you?”

He asks , taking my face in his palms on only have me nod.

“I..I am fine. He didn’t hurt me.”

And next I know, he pulls me to his arms. Engulfing ne in his warm embrace.

“I am scared Dan.”

Scared of the truth…scared of what will happen when he comes to know why I was sent here.

Scared of him getting hurt.

He tightens his hold on me, kissing my forehead.

“Shh don’t worry fiore. I will always protect you.”

A sob breaks through my lips as I hold his shirt tightly in my fingers.

If only he knew…..the betrayal I have given him.

If only he knew , I was the very mate of the man he hated with his everything.

“I am sorry Dan.”

I whisper lowly, already knowing tomorrow’s fate. Letting myself enjoy the safety of him embrace one last time.

For from tomorrow,I will be safe will be no where.

Not even with him.

…..

The next day

Chaos fills the hunters territory as the news of the werewolf kingdom attacking it, travelled down the villages.

Daniel stood at the entrance with Thora to see Volkan walking down the trail towards them, a army of pack wolves followed following behind, waiting for his command.

“Greetings Daniel. It’s been long.”

Volkan says casually, impressed to see the hunters already prepared. His eyes lingering a little longer on his ex mate, who stands beside his enemy.

Her eyes downcasted , not able to meet his stare.

He smirks, good.

It seems Thora already gave them a warning in advance.

“Leave Volkan. I don’t need a war, unless necessary.”

Daniel says with gritted teeth, knowing all this will bring nothing but b***d shed. While Volkan smirks, moving closer.

“Who wants the bloodshed hunter. All we want is the girl. You hand her over and we retreat peacefully.”

Daniel clenches his fists, to only harden his eyes at him.

“The girl you ask for is my wife and Luna of the hunter’s clan. I don’t know about you wolves, but we hunters protect our family with our everything.”

Volkan chuckles, to only shake his head in dissapointement.

Looking back at the members of the hunter’s clan, standing behind Daniel for Thora’s defence.

“What a pity? I see her innocent face fooled you well.”

He says stepping closer to Thora, to only walk around her like a prey.

“Move back Volkan!”

Dan warns gritting his teeth, to only have Volkan smirk.

“So much protectiveness for someone that doesn’t even belong to you?”

Moving her hair behind her neck, Volkan stares at the mark yet again.

To only set his cold eyes back at her.

“Haven’t you told him who you belong to …..mate?”

Everyone stills, to only have Thora gulp.

“Volkan no…you won’t…..”

“What the fuc* are you saying you bastard!”

Dan screams, pulling Thora behind him. To only have Volkan chuckle, stepping back from them.

“Why don’t you ask your wife Daniel? Who sent here here and who does she truly belong to?”

“Volkan no… please..”

She says looking at him in desperation, to only have Daniel to turn around and look at her.

“Thora? What…what is he saying?”

She couldn’t stop the tears running down her eyes. Clenching her fists by her side.

“Fiore? You came here to spy on us?…you did everything for him… ?”

Dan asks almost in a broken voice. He was attached to the werewolf girl ..he most felt attracted towards her.

He never expected her to be colluded with Volkan…he thought she was his wife? His chosen.

Yes he admits, he selected her because she was the prophesied, but other than that.

The girl has made a place in his heart which he never thought could be filled.

She taught him to love again.

She brought out his soft sides.

He did everything for her, he went against his entire clan for her, how can she?

“Thora? Tell me!”

He literally screams at her, shaking her shoulders. To only hear her sob.

“I am sorry Dan…I couldn’t tell you….I am sorry! “

His hand drops from her as he staggers back, to only have her hold his hand. Almost begging him.

“Trust me Dan! I did came here but I never…told him anything. I never spied Dan…I never lied to you !!”

Dan removes her hand from his arm. Making her heart to break.

“Don’t… don’t touch me you filth! You betrayer! What didn’t I give you huh?”

“What Thora? Then why did you did this to me?”

“No Dan please listen-“

She says holding his arm, to only have his eyes go lower to her stomach and he freezes.

“The child..”

He whispers lowly and Thora’s eyes widen.

As the reality settles in.

And that was it.

The very thought of him harbouring the werewolf heir in his lands.

The truth of the child in her womb, making Daniel’s love and care towards her to burn.

Made him push her away from him with hate.

The girl in front of him no longer his fiore but an enemy now.

A betrayer, a backstabber.

She stumbles back on her feet as was going to fall back on the ground, when an arm coils around her waist from behind.

Steadying her.

Her eyes set at Daniel’s hatred filled ones,as Volkan places his head in the crook of her neck, his hand on her waist, as he whispers in her ear from behind.

“Now no one can save you from me now my little mate”

She didn’t thrash, she didn’t protest. Her eyes fixed at Daniel.

“Dan please… believe me…”

And that’s when he turns around. His next words making her heart to stop in her chest.

“You can take her.”

And that was it. He leaves, without fighting for her. Turning his back on her. The hunters look at their leader in shock, but no one dared to question him.

While Thora stills, almost falling limp in Volkan’s arm.

The hope extinguishing from her eyes.

She didn’t wanted to go back to that hell…she didn’t wanted to return with Volkan.

She didn’t wanted to see his hate.

She didn’t wanted to be treated like the slave she was treated before.

But maybe she understood why Daniel did it.

He realised the child in her womb is Volkan’s.

He realised there is no hope of saving her from the death wolf now.

There is no hope of her surviving this.

Her hand drops from her stomach as a tear falls down her eyes.

It’s over now.

Volkan smirks with victory, seeing the hunter’s retreat. His grip on Thora tightening as he pulls her up in his arms.

She doesn’t resist, too weak to do or say anything.

Her brown dead orbs settling on his cold grey ones and he surprises her by placing his hand on her neck from behind and pulling her up to stare at her lips.

“I will love fuc*ing each and every fibre in your body to let you know who you belonged to”

His eyes moving lower to rest on her baby bump,as he warns her.

“And I will first start with throwing out the bastard’s child growing inside you.”

She stills, fearing her fate.

“No…”

While he only smirks,staring at her teary eyes.

“You should have thought about it before opening your legs to him, mate”

And that’s when he smashes his lips on her in a punishing k**s. To only have her grip on his collar to tighten.

She feels a strong kick in her abdomen, as if the child recognised it’s father and she couldn’t help,cry out more.

If only he knew that she has forever remained loyal to him.

She may have shared countless nights with Dan, but she didn’t even kissed him.

Let alone slept with him.

If only he knew, the child he wants to end is not Daniel’s but his own flesh and b***d.

Her lips still and he found her to have lost consciousness. Adjusting her in his arms,he nods at his men.

Going back towards the pack house.

To only look back at her peaceful sleeping form, wondering just one thing.

How this weak girl was chosen to be the prophesied one.

How he will face the werewolf council and protect her from the entire world.

When they have asked him to kill the summoner of the death wolf.
