Forbidden love

Part 24: Trouble at Home

          We arrived at this old wooden house. We waited for a minute just to look at the house. Aiden held my hand as I looked at him. "Its okay, she is an old friend." I smiled at him with a bit more confidence. Ill get him to tell me later how he met her.

          We got out of the car and walked up to the house. Aiden knocked on the door and we waited about two minutes before the door opened. A woman's face appeared from around the corner. She had light brown hair with brown eyes. She was wearing a leather jacket and two rings on her left hand. "Who are you and what do you want?" She looked cautious and worried, but I felt a powerful presence coming from her. "Alice, its me Aiden?" Then she turned to Aiden in shock. She looked at him for a minute before her face lit up. She shut the door and I could hear two locks get taken off the door before it opened. The door flew open and she jumped into his arms out of excitement. I felt extremely agitated seeing her do that. I wanted to punch her, but this is Aiden's friend so we will just have to have a chat.

Alice pulled back from Aiden with a smile "its been forever, where have you been?" Aiden smiled and stood next to me and held my hand. Then I leaned my head on his shoulder to help her understand. "Ohh, Aiden, going for wolves now!" She chuckled as she walked inside. Aiden and I followed her inside and into the living room. There were plants and weird items on tables. Not much decorations though. This definitely had age to the house. "Sorry for the mess, it used to have so much life but after my family passed things really died down." Aiden looked confused like he didnt know what death was. "What, how did they all die?" She sat down and took a drink of whatever it was, maybe a tequila or something. It smelled like alcohol. Then she went on to tell us a story about this wolf that came and attacked them. She didnt know why it did but it killed her mother and her two sisters. Thats when my stomach dropped, a thought crossed my mine that my father might of been the wolf that killed her family. Her house after all wasnt far from our home.

"Alice im so sorry for your loss.." she shook her head and took another drink. "Its alright, it cant be helped."

For another hour Aiden and Alice were playing catch up. Then he got to why we came here. "We need your help, the head family might come after Damian and his pack. We need a strong ally to help us." She hesitated before answering his question. "Of course ill be your ally were friends not enemies. Aiden you have to realize that the head family aint a joke, they also have the rest of the vampires on there side." Aiden shook his head while grabbing my hand. "We have wolves, allies, and you would only boost our confidence, besides your my friend and I need to know that your still here for me." She looked at us and smiled. Then she gave us a hug "if you ever need anything im here." I could smell the alcohol in her breathe, didnt smell good!

Two weeks later

          I was on a run with Chase and Annabella in wolf form to relax, maybe get away from all the drama. We did this when we needed to escape, you know just chase each other or just ran around. We havent had any drama after the marriage, but that doesnt mean we werent stressed out from everything before hand so maybe that was a sign things were getting better. However Aiden was still worried. He thinks Ellana is a threat and we shouldnt ignore it. So I told him not to worry. That didn't really help as he has been very worried for when she will arrive.

          Chase was about to tackle me and I was ready. Then just before he was about to pounce we heard another wolf cry out. We all looked at each other trying to figure out what it was. Sebrina was back at the house with Aiden. The cry came from another direction. I gave one look and ran off, Chase and Sebrina followed behind me.

          While we were running we started to smell fire as we aproached what was left of a wolf pack. I was in shock to see that sight. The house destroyed with two bodies that were strung up for display. Whoever done it must've found enjoyment in murder. Then we heard whining from the woods just next to us. I ran to it and seen Josiah laying on the ground. He had scratches and stab wounds all over his body but they werent healing. Then I saw a silver dagger piercing his chest. I slowly walked up to him not knowing what to do or how to feel. I was disgusted and angry and upset all at once. I didnt know what to do, we couldnt heal him with the amount of wounds and how deep they were. He probably was suffering from eternal bleeding as well. Chase and Annabella came over and started crying at the sight of a friend suffering. One of closest allies we have, a friend, even a family member, now suffers because of my actions and my fate...

          I stood up and rested my head against his before I bit his throat putting him down. I was crying as the sound of a short whine came from Josiah as his life ran short. The whine turned to a quick breathe before, nothing. I released my jaw from his neck and stood back looking away from what ive done. No one deserves this, except the one who commited this massacre. After a few minutes Chase walked up to me asking to alert the others. I shook my head and he turned to the direction of our house and howled to alert Sebrina know of an attack. Then him and Annabella headed home while I stayed. I was gonna look around for anything I could find that could help us find the culprit. I looked around Josiah's body to try and find out what happened. Whoever did this knew that silver could take away our healing ability and can be deadly. Then I seen the tree that Josiahs body was laying infront of. There was definitely something heavy that was thrown against it. My guess was that whoever did this had the strength to throw Josiah, but what? Maybe it could have been a hybrid like before and attacked the wrong pack. I ran back to the burned down house and looked to see if I could see anything from the outside. The house was still burning so I couldnt go inside...

          After an hour of looking I found a note that was on a tree directly acrossed from the two people that were strung up. The note said "you we're warned" and that made me question what Josiahs pack did to piss off someone that can take out 7 wolves. I was gonna look for the other bodies but I heard a weak howl comming from back at the house. I quickly started sprinting in that direction heading back home.

          When I got back I immediately ran inside the house, not bothering to transform. In the living room I saw Ellana who had Chase on the ground and Sebrina held in the air by her throat. I immediately jumped at her, causing her to release Sebrina and focus on me. Instead of going right at her I jumped a little to the side missing her to try and get a better shot. While I was behind her I jumped up to go straight for the back of her neck. Then she turned and in a split second she was behind me and nocked me into the wall. My body smashed straight through the wall and onto the kitchen floor. I cried out in pain as I felt bones in my body broken or moved. I had no idea that vampires were this strong. To be able to throw and Alpha like that is crazy! Then Ellana came through the whole in the wall and walked towards me with a silver dagger. "I warned Aiden, but it seems he didnt believe me." She sat down next to me and began feeling my fur. "What a shame that a pack had to die before I came here, and you guys didnt even make it a month into being a newly wed couple." She brought the knife to my throat and traced it down to my chest. I tried to bite her hand but she slammed my head down. I could feel blood escape my head were she slammed me down. She held my head there before she started to slowly pierce my skin at my shoulder. I cried and growled as I felt pain that Ive never felt, something that was worse than Transforming, ive never gotten hurt so much.

"Dont worry Damian, it will be slow and entertaining, well atleast for me!"
