Chapter 12: Alpha's Revenge

“She isn’t old enough to have her wolf yet. Remember the Alpha said she isn’t 18 yet and if you haven’t noticed, she is wearing a silver collar. Her healing is going to be slower.” said the brown-haired one. Well, at least one of them is observant. 

While they are arguing, I decided to go on the offensive and attack the dirty blonde one first with an uppercut to his jaw before rounding on the red-haired one and kicking him in the stomach. Before I can get to the third one, my hair is pulled and pain radiates from my scalp. I knew I should have put it in a ponytail sooner, but nothing I can do about that now. I backed into him and stepped on his foot, then kicked his shin before elbowing him in the stomach. When he lets me go, I turn and grab his shoulders and jump into the air kicking the other two while they come at me. Once they’re down, I maneuver behind him and quickly snap his neck. 

One down, two to go, but I’m losing strength fast. Damn collar. _“Ally and Fredrick please hurry and get here. I don’t know how much longer I can keep fighting.”_ I said to myself as I turned to make a run for the door. Hopping over the other two as they lay on the floor in pain, I manage to make it to the door and just as I pull down on the handle, one of them grabs my ankle. Turning to shake him off, I kicked him in the face but couldn’t react in enough time to avoid the punch to the right side of my face by the other one. My head hits the door and all the strength I had left leaves my body and I slump to the floor. Darkness envelops me. 

**Chapter 6 (A New Enemy)** 

My head is pounding as my eyes flutter open. I’m lying on something soft and I’m a little grateful for that much as I try to sit up. Once my eyes adjust to the slight darkness in the room that is illuminated by a lamp that isn’t that bright, I look around the room. I can smell that there is someone else here and I go into defense mode. Sitting up quickly, my head spins and I fall back onto the bed. 

“You shouldn’t move so fast, or move at all really. You hit your head pretty hard and need to rest.” said a female voice. She sounded bored, like she was forced to be here. 

“Where am I?” I ask in an irritated voice. 

“You’re in the Black Moon pack.” she said. Oh hell no! The Black Moon pack is one of my father’s ex rivals. I didn’t know this was the pack those idiots were taking me to or I would have tried harder to kill all of them instead of just one, but their Alpha’s name is Donald, not Malcom. 

“Where is Alpha Donald?” 

“Alpha Malcolm is our Alpha now. Alpha Donald was killed almost 3 years ago.” She said with a little sadness in her voice. Seems to be a lot of Alpha killing going on. 

“Was he challenged? I heard he was a pretty good fighter.” I need information. 

“No. He was ambushed and...” Just then we heard the door knob turning, and she stopped talking and looked down at her hands. 

The door opened and in walked a tall man, about 6’5-with sandy-colored hair, a muscled build but not too bulky, tan skin, and a light five o’clock shadow. I can tell from his aura that he is the Alpha. He was an Alpha before he took over and not like Ramsey. He’d be handsome if he hadn’t kidnapped me. My eyes never leave his as he walks further into the room. 

“Welcome Reigna. I’m sorry about what happened to you. They are being punished for hurting you, even though you did kill one of my men.” 

“Well, had they left me alone, he’d be alive. What am I doing here? I don’t know you, so how do you know my name?” 

“I am Alpha Malcolm, but you can just call me Malcolm for now. Your father cost me a lot of money on a deal that he canceled, and now I am going to collect from you.” I laughed but stopped when my head started hurting. 

“You’re going to try to collect a canceled contract from a deceased man's daughter? Look, if my father canceled the contract, then it was for a good reason. He very rarely did that unless the deal was bad, and even then, he’d try to help them fix the problem before canceling. Anyway, I can’t help you.” I said to him while holding my head. 

“Yes, you can. You see I know about you needing to appoint a guardian in order to take control sooner, and you are going to make me that guardian.” Again, I laughed. He has guts. I give him that much.
