Death Wolf Saga
Death Wolf Chapter 72 (Book 2)

Alexandria’s grip on Silas was loosening, yet he refused to let go. Holding onto her wrist tightly.

“It’s… it’s too powerful Si…las”

.

.

.

“Hold on little one.”

He says, trying his best. Despite knowing that death wolves power surpassed his in every sense

It this was bad, it got worse.

Her mouth went dry as she saw a number of wolves coming towards them from behind Silas. Their eyes b***d red, as they took slow steps towards him.

“Si ..las. they….”

“Look at me Alex. Just look at me”

Her grip on him was loosening. As she moves her head in a no. Afraid for him. But he didn’t seemed to care.

“Silas! They are behind you!”

Alexandria screamed. And before Silas knows, the wolves lunged forward to get hold of his leg. Making an excruciating pain to enrapture.

But he doesn’t show.

Alexandria’s features softened. Yet his grip on her was still firm.

“Silas”

Alexandria speaks with a rogue tear streaming down her eye. As she sees the wolves ripping Silas’s thigh , colouring the ground in the colour of his b***d.

4 wolves were busy, attacking him. Yet despite everything, his stare was fixed at her.

However, what made her go still was when one of them stills to look up at her. Stepping forward to attack Silas’s neck.

“No….no please…leave me Silas… please…they will kill you!”

She screams desperately.Trying to loosen her grip on him.But he was adamant. Not letting her.

With a sad smile on his lips, he instead tightens his hold on her.

“I would …..never leave you little one….. Never”

“No… please..no!”

She screams desperately. Nearly begging for his life,when he was willing to die for her. She thrashes her legs, trying to free herself from the unknown force behind.

But no avail.

Moon goddess please! This can’t be happening ! Please!

She nearly begs looking at Silas. Who was breathing heavily. Having lost too much b***d.

“Leave me dammit! “

Alexandria almost goes crazy. Biting his wrists, begging him to leave her.

Her tears falling on his hands

To only have him smile sadly.

Tired, she looks at her teeth marks forming a crecent on his wrist. To only sigh.

“Why….Silas…why?”

His eyes were dropping and his rugged breaths was the only sound audible, other than the groaning of the wolves.

“I …I….love you Alexandria…have…and always will….”

“No….Silas nooooo!!”

Alex screams seeing his grip loosening on her. His eyes dropping as he struggled with consciousness.

She never felt like this before.

She didn’t love him…then why was she feeling like this? Her heart was thudding rapidly in her chest.

And she knew then, that she could do anything to save him.

Moon goddess please!

You have to do something.

She tries to call onto the voice in her mind she always hears.

Please! Help! Please!!

But nothing. No answer.

She sees the wolf was approaching Silas slowly. And Alexandria suddenly felt something rising in her chest.

Looking into the wolves red eyes, she moves her head in a no.

Warning it.

“No! Step back! Stop!”

The authority in her voice and the aura around her suddenly seemed to change and that uneasiness in her chest worsens.

To her surprise, all the wolves stop suddenly. To look into her eyes.

Approaching her, when suddenly they all jump together. And a scream follows.

“Nooooooooo!!!!!”

Everything seemed to stop for a second, as Alexandria looked down shielding her face.

Nothing. Except her heavy breathing.

And she suddenly felt really weird.

The thing rising inside her worsening ,her vision suddenly going hazy .

She felt afraid.

She didn’t know what was happening to her.

Gulping ,she looked up at her hands that held onto Silas’s and she couldn’t believe it.

There was a light.

A blight yellow light which was rising up her arms.

Moving up towards her chest and next she knows, a loud scream escapes her lips as she felt a sharp pain in her chest to be followed by a blinding light.

Everything got turned white for few seconds.

And she couldn’t understand what was happening.

The wolves around her get thrown away, meters high into the air and the pull on her legs was no longer there.

As fast it came, so did it left. Leaving her body and she falls down beside Silas. Breathing heavily.

The excruciating pain in her chest subsiding.

What…what was it?

From where did that light came?

Trying to lift herself up, she looks around to see the wolves whining in pain, turning around to leave back to the forest.

Looking behind her she find no one near the tree.

Strange. What happened suddenly?

What was that light? From where did it came?

Ignoring it. She drags her shaking limbs towards Silas. Seeing his eyes closed on her.

“Hey! Silas! Get up!”

Pulling up his face, to place it in her lap. She looks at the condition of his legs.

“Sh*t!”

“Silas! Stay with me!”

Shaking him vigorously, she pleads to see his eyes struggling to open.

“Yes. Wake up Silas. It’s fine now. We are safe!”

“Littl…e…one?”

“Come. We need to leave. Can you get up?”

He g****s trying to move. To only lay back his head in her lap, breathing heavily.

“Damn those fuc*ers!”

“Don’t… don’t move. Wait.”

Tearing her t shirts corner. She ties it around his thigh. Trying to stop the b***d. Her hands trembling ,seeing so much b***d.

Once done.

She looks around at the now silent forest. Knowing she couldn’t stay here any longer. She has to return to her father’s hut.

Taking in a deep breath.

She places Silas’s arm around her shoulder. Making him clench his leg.

“Aghhh”

“Come on.”

Putting in all her strength,she lifts him up. Seeing sweat running down his forehead as he tries to not put his entire weight on her.

“Just few meters into the forest. There is a hut. We need to reach there.”

He barely nods. Struggling to walk, with her. Holding him for support.

.

.

.

Few minutes later,they continue to walk in deeper into the forest. Alexandria’s mind lost as she tries to remember the direction from which she came earlier.

Anxiousness and worry evident on her features as she looked around.

Oblivion of Silas’s stare on her. Admiring her all the way, not caring about his pains.

“It has to be here somewhere. Oh god! What if we came wrong? No..I can’t! I have to find the way.”

Her anxious eyes settle on his calm ones. Which were staring at her all the way.

“Silas? Does it hurt really bad? We can stop if y-“

“I am fine little one.”

She rolls her eyes, looking at him in disbelief.

“You are lying! Of course it must be hurting so bad! You know you are a really bad lier”

“There is so much b***d. Oh sh**! Your wound again started bleeding. Let me see. Come sit.”

She says trying to tear her shirt even more up . Not caring about her innerwears that will be visible.

To only have him place his hand on her wrist.

Stopping her.

“Don’t. It will be fine. Don’t worry.”

“But-“

“Shhhhh”

He says. Placing his finger on her lips and they look at each other.

Her heart thudding rapidly in her chest at their close proximity. A blush rising in her cheeks as she lowers her eyes.

“It’s really late. We will search for the hut tomorrow.”

“As for now. We can stay here.”

“Here? “

She asks in disbelief. Looking at the silent scary forest and gulping.

He barely nods.

“Let’s gather some wooden sticks.”

She wasn’t sure about his idea. But she knew she could trust him.

He saved her with his life.

“Wait! You don’t do! I will get them. You just sit!”

“I am fine little one-“

“No Silas! You are bleeding dammit!”

He just sighs. Leaning against a tree to balance himself.

Seeing her running around, here and there. Gathering twigs and branches for the fire.

.

.

.

A small smile lingering on his lips.

She cares for him, he could see. But still refutes it.

Alexandria’s pov

Few hours later—

We were sitting in the forest around the little fire we have lit. I was sitting on one side, while Silas sat in front of me.

His back leaning against the tree, eyes closed and a calmness set on his features.

How can he react to it so casually?

My gaze went lower to his bleeding thigh and I gulp. Seeing my shirt piece tied around it,all red.

He must be in so much pain, yet he is concealing it.

How? Why?

For me? So that I don’t worry?

I look back at his beautiful face to remember the words he spoke to me.

I love you Alexandria…have and always will.

There is nothing to love in me. Why does he? I am his mate I know. I even rejected him in hopes of him hating me.

Then why? Why isn’t he letting me go?

I can never live with their species. I hate werewolves. They have taken my mom from me. They left my dad crazy without her.

I don’t want him to be like him.

I want him to move on.

To find someone stronger. Someone of his standards and status.

Not a human girl like me,who will only make him weak.

“Little one?”

I am brought out of my thoughts, when I hear him call me. Looking up, I see his green orbs already fixed at me.

“You are shivering. Are you feeling cold?”

I just dismiss him. Moving my head in a no.

“It’s nothing. I am fine.”

I say, hugging myself. While rubbing my arms with my hands. He continues to stare, not buying it. To only order in a domineering voice.

“Come here”

He offers. And I refuse outrightly.

“I am fine like seriously.You don’t need to worry abou-“

“Alexandria”

He says sternly. Leaving no end for negotiating. And I gulp. Sh**! Why do I suddenly feel so hot and what’s this weird feeling in my stomach.

I look into his intense stare to oblige.

Getting up, I approach him. While hugging myself. My footsteps slow, but he doesn’t seem to care.

As soon as I step beside him, I lower my gaze to look at the ground.

“Umm you are really hurt-“

I couldn’t complete as I felt a tight grasp on my wrist and next I know, I found myself falling into his lap.

A gasp leaves my lips as I stare into his green eyes.

“Sh**! What are you doing! You are hurt! I am so sorry! “

I literally scream trying to get up from his lap. What is he even doing? His thigh is all bleeding.

However he seemed to have some other intentions.

Moving me closer to him, he places his other arm around my waist and pulls me flush against his chest.

“Silas-“

“Just sleep little one.”

Was all he said. Hugging me tightly. Pressing my face to his chest. My uneven breathing suddenly seemed to calm down and my shivering seizes.

He musky scent hits me and I couldn’t help let loose.

Letting out bodies exchange the heat. Helping each other.

.

.

.

We stay like that and I was in a deep sleep.

When suddenly I feel a gentle touch on my cheek as he says something that made my heart to beat frantically in my chest.

“It was always you little one.”

.

.

.

“You are the summoner of Light”
