The Wolf In Me

Chapter 23: Part 2 Millenium wolves

"Look Luka, more packs are arriving. Who might they be?" I asked squinting my eyes trying to recognise the alpha from afar as I peeped from our bedroom window.

They were running this way in their wolf form like they were being chased.

"They must be the Millenium wolves. They were to come next according to my list. But why are they in their wolf form?!"

Luka spoke from behind me, holding his left arm against the wall to get closer to the window so he would be able to observe the pack.

Suddenly as they were getting closer, there was an army of vampires running behind them, grabbing a few young wolves that were being left behind because of the panic everyone was in. Luka and I rushed down to the hall sounding the alarm, informing everyone to get ready and help the new pack.

"Everyone outside. Prepare for battle. Hurry! The new arrival is being attacked!" He growled loudly.

Luka and I turned into our wolf form halfway down the stairs and rushed outside with a mass of wolves behind us.

The vampires kept coming. Of course, as they have no fear when they come in large groups. One vampire aimed its fangs at me but Nala stretched her mouth as wide as she possibly could and dug its teeth into the female vampire's side, ripping off its flesh. The vampire was thrown on to the other side as I could taste the fresh vamp blood that was drooling down my mouth with the piece of skin still between my teeth. I dropped it down spitting the blood out whilst focussing on the next kill looking at the crowd.

Simba was shaking his head whilst twisting off a vamp's arm and then leapt on to it digging its teeth into its heart, ripping it out of its chest.

A male vamp, with really dark short hair and pale skin, was running into my direction. My wolf prepared herself as she lowered her front legs, growling and locking eyes with the monster in front of her.

Suddenly another wolf jumped on the vamp, pushing it down hard to the ground. The view was lost amongst the rush of the battle. I thought I should go find the young wolves to make sure they are safe so I ran around, passing between everyone as I stayed as low as possible to prevent being seen by a vamp.

There were a few vampires that caught sight of me but I killed them instantly. I managed to get to a very young wolf that was hiding in human form cuddled up behind a tree that was in the sun. Probably someone told her to stay there until the battle was over. As I got closer I realised that it was a young girl, about three or four, with a hood over her head. Nala grabbed her softly between her teeth and rushed towards the wolf packhouse. Luckily she hid well between the trees and managed to get in through the gate.

I shifted into human form after putting the child down so that I could close the gate to secure the house. I picked the girl up and rushed inside with her clinging onto my neck shivering. Steph was in the hall and I motioned for her to come to take the kid into safety. I needed to go back out and as I ran, Nala emerged once again sniffing the air in search for more children.

Luka's POV

"Alpha Kodi, behind you," I screamed through the mind link as I watched a vamp heading towards him.

Another vamp covered my view as it managed to grab me by its sharp long nails. I squealed as I felt a needle through my fur and the coldness of the poison coming through. My eyes seemed to get blurry but before I dropped unconscious I managed to tear the vamp's throat with my nails. Both of us fell onto the soil with an ugly smile forming on the vampire's face, feeling satisfied that she managed to get me good.

All I could remember was just a few flashes of vamps jumping over me to fight with the wolves and someone lifting me and moving me away. I opened my eyes to see dad beside me. I groaned feeling a strong headache coming in.

"Luka, are you alright?" He asked calmly as he put a hand on my chest.

"Dad. Did you..?" I could barely breathe or speak and I couldn't form any words.

"Save your strength son. I found you unconscious with blood seeping out of your sides and this needle still tucked into your skin. A vamp must have surprised you. Your wolf will heal you faster than the

norm. Give it some time."

I realised I was in my bedroom laid down on the bed over all the sheets.

I felt my sides with both my arms and sure enough, I felt the skin burning. I closed my eyes again trying to talk to my wolf.

"Are you alright Simba?" I asked. I heard no reply. "Simba" I called out again, more in a worried manner.

My wolf howled as my body was pushed up from my pillow sitting down and a strong growl escaped me. My heart started beating fast and my wolf appeared before me through the full-body mirror that was on my side.

I let out a cry of pain as I felt the poison getting out from the punctured skin before the wounds healed instantly right in front of my eyes. I looked back at the mirror but Simba was no longer there. It must have got back inside me.

Looking at my dad, still breathless and surprised, he nodded with a faint smile forming on his lips.

"I'm ready," I growled, getting my breathing back, showing my Alpha king eyes at my dad as I wore a determined face.

I turned into wolf form and I nodded towards my dad, waiting for him to turn too, but instead, he remained in human form.

"Go, son. I will stay here to help Mei bring in the kids" he said.

Simba nodded again and ran outside to help. Nala and Simba locked eyes before she rushed inside with a baby between her teeth. I carried on towards the fighting area and aimed at two vamps that were ripping the skin of one of the wolves. I growled heavily and noticed that everyone stopped and looked at me with fear in their eyes. My legs kept running towards the two vampires and clung onto one of them, ripping his head. I landed on all fours back on the soil throwing its head away. Then without a thought, I ran towards the next victim. I ripped its heart out with my claws and I shifted back into human form holding its heart in my hands as I lifted it to show it off.

Squeezing it tightly between my fingers, blood seeped down my arms, reaching the side of my body and legs until it fell on the soil. The pure silence turned into a roar of proud wolves whilst the vampires

hissed showing their fangs.

"Die you, bastards! There is no chance you will call earth your home!" I roared.

They all showed fear in their eyes but stood still. My wolf growled again, this time releasing the strongest one Simba could do and the vamps disappeared in an instant, using their vamp speed.

Howls filled the silence and some even turned into human form to come in for a hug.

"Alpha Leon. Welcome to our mutual grounds," I told him as I was wearing my green t-shirt.

"I would love to thank you for saving my pack. I wouldn't have managed to save this much of my pack without your help," he said pointing at a few of them.

"Your pack is also my pack, her pack, his pack and everyone else's pack as long as we all work together. We are all responsible for each other," I told him as I pointed at a few Wolves that were close enough to hear the conversation.

Alpha Leon nodded and stretched down his arm for a handshake. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"So, Alpha of the Millenium wolves. There is a nice place for you here, for all of you," I said looking at the wolfs in front of me.

"Jake, will you be kind to show them their new area?" I asked smiling at him whilst patting his left shoulder.

He nodded and gestured for the Millenium wolf pack to follow him.
