Chapter 25: Lock me up!

Ricky was shocked to see the one that captured him from school, being thrown into one of the cells next to his.

"Cloud?"

Cloud had tried to flee, but he got nowhere since Klaus caught him. He was quite unstable due to the blood moon which was going to happen in a couple of weeks time.

Plus the fact that Alpha Roman wished to see him, due to his watchful eye on his interesting little lamb.

There was no doubt that he was on to her, and he couldn't wait to find out about her, as soon as the blood moon was over.

"What are you looking at punk!"

He glowed his blue green eyes at Ricky scarring the $hit out of him.

A random guard had failed to check his cell and Ricky was in luck yet again.

Cloud, heard him escaping and scoffed.

That fool.

Doesn't he realise that he won't get far?

Ricky was headed towards the school. All he had to do, was break into the principal's office, grab a green access form to the docks and forge his mother's signature. Then he could finally get off this cursed island that ran with beasts.

Despite this, he came to a sudden halt when he spotted a figure relaxing against a fine looking car not too far from him.

The man wore a farmiliar yokai mask.

The sweat dropped from his brow when he recognized him instantly.

"Alpha Roman?" he muttered under his breath after noticing his silver eyes, wildly glowing at him.

"Evening Ricky."

Fear stricken to see him again, Ricky turned on heel to run away from his sight, however in a sudden flash, Roman was infront of him and grabbed his collar.

Ricky shortly yelled out and shouted for help.

"Quiet!" He growled easily shutting up the whimpering boy up.

"You know because of you, you spoilt my happy hour with my mate."

{E} She's not our mate.

{R} Yes she is Ethan! Stop denying it.

Ethan rolled his eyes inside Roman's soul as he took control of his human body.

He was too tired and ticked off to calm his true beast down.

"I'm sorry for running away. But hey, look on the bright side? You don't need me anymore right?" Ricky reasoned, hoping the town's Alpha would have a heart and let him go.

"Unfortunately Ricky I do. You see there's been yet another murder in town, and I need to look through your head one more time to get a better picture, plus since you've seen too much, we're going to turn you."

Turn him?!

Into one of them??!!

Ricky started shaking his head.

"What?! No! No, I don't want to be a werewolf! Please, Alpha Roman, look through my mind if you have to, then let me go! I promise I won't say anything!" His heart hammered in his chest as he pleaded, dropping to his knees and holding his leg in fear.

{R} Look at this Ethan. The kid says he won't say anything?

{E} He's a teenage brat, of course he'll cry wolf.

Roman kicked him away grabbed him by his collar and held him back up.

"Aww you scared Ricky?"

Ricky nodded trying hard not to cry infront of the black masked man.

"Too bad, you ran away again! How did that happen?"

"The door wasn't locked again." Ricky admitted making Roman scoff, his damn security pack must be on edge due to the blood moon being around the corner.

"Well, aren't you lucky that you got to escape again. It doesn't matter anymore Ricky, you're still joining the canine club." Roman said glowing his frightening the poor kid to his core.

"N---"

With one punch to his face, Roman easily knocked him out cold. Another car came down the road quickly and stopped to the side.

Jaxon and Klaus Ethan's top betas got out.

"You found him?" Klaus said looking at the passed out kid.

"Yeah, where were you guys? The punk escaped because someone forgot to lock the door again!" Roman spoke in an irritated manner.

"Well, I wasn't on babysitting duty this time." Klaus admitted pushing Jaxson forward to take the blame. He shot Klaus an annoyed look then turned back to his Alpha with a nervous laugh.

"I was with Mia playing her 'fairy godmother', then brought her to the party."

Seeing a flash back of Mia in her little red dress on tonight, calmed down a very hostile Roman who was about to fume his Sandolores power on his betas. However, he needed to save his energy for another troubled wolf locked in the pack dungeons.

Roman than threw the kid's unconscious body towards both his betas.

"Take him back, not to the pack house, but to my house, and lock him up down the cave."

"Wait, where are you going?"

"Do deal with another punk @$$ wolf!"

Roman walked away towards his car and went on his way, leaving his betas clueless.

"Another punk @$$ wolf?" Ricky was thrown over Klauses shoulder as Jaxson went over to their car and opened up the trunk.

"No idea whose he meant."

Ricky was thrown in and the trunk door was closed.

Roman then went down the dungeons and walked past the young rowdy werewolves that were still in training. They all snarled at him as he walked past but Roman paid no mind to them. To tame their inner beasts they'd all need to work very hard before they were set free of from their shackles.

He then went towards the less raging wolf, and opened his door.

The boy with blue green eyes immediately fell towards his knees, when he walked in.

"Alpha Roman, I can explain!"

"There's no need to Cloud."

With his hand coming on to his head, Roman easily infiltrated his mind, and saw what happened between him and his mate. He saw Cloud with Rui watching Mia spar with the annoying one that came to see her at her home the other day. What was the name of that stupid jock, Cheese? Was it?

He then saw Cloud sparring with Mia, and almost making her cry with his hard sparing. Then he also caught Cloud seeing Mia grow out a short vine from the ground to try and trip him up.

Roman smirked seeing her trying to defend herself sneakily like that, then he saw Mia punching Cloud hard on his face. He was shocked, surprised and quite amused that she did that. Most lambs wouldn't dare strike back at Cloud, however she did.

He saw Cloud getting pissed and his mate getting scared and finally she ran away. Rui his best friend tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen. Cloud then went after her, and he saw him also shoving a bald headed teacher away, due to his angry wolf.

More importantly he saw Cloud finding Mia again and trapping her against the lockers, looking down at her confused and lustfully. How dare he look at his mate like that! Roman then saw him flashing his eyes at her making her more freaked out. She wanted him to get away from her, but he didn't listen then Roman saw her pulling out a dangerous illegal device that knocked Cloud out.

Roman let go of Cloud after giving him a pounding headache.

"She knocked you out with a tazzer?! Cloud?!"

"Yes, I don't know how she got that." He said in defeat.

{R} Mark!

{E} Of course he'd give it to her.

"Oh you stupid brat, I told you to watch over her, keep the damn horny boys away from her! Not beat her up you crazy fool!"

"I'm sorry! I really am, I was trying to teach her self defence moves and I didn't mean to scare her like that! But you saw what happened! She grew out a freaking vine from the grass and tripped me up and th---"

Roman growled making him easily shutup.

"What she did, you will forget about that Cloud, and you'll question it no further." He glowed his eye furiously making him easily lower his head in submission.

"I can't believe you disrespected a teacher too! And are you crazy to go glowing your wolfish eyes at her?! Why would you do that! Are you trying to give it away that she's surrounded with a bunch of werewolves?!" He slapped the back of his forehead.

"I'm sorry! Please I wasn't myself, you have to believe me! I would never hurt her like that ever please Alpha Roman!"

Roman calmed down and sighed.

He had never seen Cloud loose his cool like that before. He could have easily thrown him up against the wall and bashed him for what he did, but he didn't wish to anger him and bully Mia further.

Cloud closed his eyes ready to face his wrath when he raised his hand, but no slap or strike to his face came. Instead Roman gently held his jaw tightly in anger.

"Fine. Just don't hurt her like that again Cloud."

Cloud took in the pain and nodded his head, as his Alpha let him go. He was quite surprised that he was going easy with his torture tonight. He was sure he'd be beating his @$$ to a pulp by now, but it looked like he had too much going on.

Roman went towards the door and opened it up for him. But Cloud refused to get out of his cell.

"What are you doing punk? Get out."

"No."

Ethan calmed his raging wolf down who simply wanted to go and patrol Mia's place, but this stupid teenage mutt was causing him delays.

"What do you mean no?"

"Alpha Roman, I wish to stay here. Look, I'll even lock myself up." He said heading towards the shackles and grabbing them of the floor.

{R} Oh no. I see what's going on here.

{E} What's that?

{R} He's on edge because of the bad moon.

"Cloud? What's wrong? You've handled the blood moon before?"

Cloud stayed silent, too afraid to reveal what was really bothering him.

"Cloud?"

"It's Mia!" He finally said.

"What about her?"

"Look, I don't think she's my mate, but a wild part of me wants her!"

Roman fumed and struck easily at his gut.

"Excuse me?" Roman said darkly, making Cloud easily fall to his knees, groaning in pain.

"I'm sorry Alpha, I know deserved that, but the truth is I can't handle the blood moon, this year."

"Why the hell not! You've been just fine the past five years Cloud!" Ethan said quite surprised at his honesty.

"There's something about her scent that is making me want to hunt her badly! I can't leave this cell! I can't! Just lock me up! I'll be better once the blood moon, and the blood lust for her is gone." Cloud cried out feeling quite guilty and stressed all together.

Ethan sighed and dragged him out of the cell.

"No, Alpha Roman, what are you doing?! Don't take me out! I need to be locked up!"

{R} And taken care of.

{E} Roman, we're not killing him! Besides, It's not his fault.

"Cloud, I get where you coming from. But these shackles are not going to be strong for you."

"Wait, where will you take me?"

"To a place, where it'll be difficult for you to escape from."

Roman dropped Cloud to his house and Jaxson took him down towards the cave after being notified of the troubled teen wolf's arrival.

"Hey Ricky! Looks like you're not going to be alone in here." Jaxson chimed.

"Dear god, no." Ricky sighed seeing Cloud walk past his cell.

"Oh you've got to be kidding! You can't put me next to the freaking lamb!"

"Too bad kid, it's the Alpha's orders."

"Why would he do that?!"

"To test you obviously." Klaus said locking his door up.
