Chapter 45: Hungry Wolves
Back in the basement dungeons, of the castle.
Cloud, Nico and Chiyo were the only young wolves in town, that couldn't handle the strong vibrations of the blood moon rising, in a couple of days time.
They all been locked in separate cellars, as they turned into their true raging beasts at night.
The pack doctors had done everything in their power to try and sedate them, however these young wolves were rather strong in accepting stability.
The only one who could get that to calm down, was Alpha Roman.
With his one powerful loud growl that shook the walls, and striked dear in their souls, all three of the wolves fell easily into submission.
Roman would only come down twice a week to see his young warriors.
He hated to keep them locked up and restrained by the metal electric chains, that withheld their true beasts coming out of them.
Roman was not only here to see the wolves, but also a human captive.
Ricky.
"Please, I've been here long enough! I've told you everything! I want to go home." The young teen balled his eyes out, as Cloud growled angrily from the cellar opposite from him.
Roman, tilted his head and sighed after finally finding out what the killer looked like.
Ever since Kavyaa had entered his life, it seemed his powers had strengthen greatly thanks to her healing him. He felt twice as strong than ever before, and the effects of the blood moon, didn't effect him as it did before.
His craving for lambs had calmed down and so had his lust cells.
Now that he'd found his mate thanks to Mark, he'd felt more at ease.
He'd gained new powers also thanks to her, but weirdly enough, he couldn't use any of his mind powers or levitational gifts on her, which surprised him the most.
"Let you go? Of course I'll let you go, once you decide to become part of my pack."
"What?!"
"You see little Ricky, my pack is strong, how's it's weak in numbers, and I'm looking for fresh recruitments."
"Are you crazy?! I'm a human! Your bite will kill me!"
"Not my problem, besides you've seen too much." He flashed his eyes silver at him, making him easily stumble back in his cellar.
"Alpha Roman, I swear I won't breathe a word about your pack. Let me leave your island, I'll relocate to a place far from here..."
Roman stood up and didn't bother about his pathetic excuse to flee. He'd looked through his head well enough to know, that the boy would no doubt cry wolf to the local authorities, once he was set free.
The local authorities were a bunch of outlawed hunters that he'd did not wish to deal with especially whilst the blood moon was on the rise soon enough.
Roman then approached the cell of Cloud.
He was a young wolf, that reminded him much of himself when he was his age many moons ago.
If he was trained well, Roman would be glad to make him the next alpha of the pack.
"Cloud, how are you feeling tonight?"
"I'm fine, Alpha Roman." He seemed to twitch his hand, as he looked away from his silver glowing eyes.
"Hmm, you don't seem fine, what's the matter you hungry?"
Cloud was incredibly hungry, he'd been having dreams chasing a flock of sheep to satisfy his hunger pangs, but looking at Ricky across from him, all he could think about was attacking him down like a wild lion.
"Yes!"
Roman sighed and sucker punched him at his gut, making him snap out of his hungry delusions he was having with Ricky.
"Look at me. Ricky is going to be one of us."
"What?! He's an annoying punk!"
Another punch landed on his torso making him growl out angrily at his Alpha.
"Lower your eyes Cloud and tame your beast. I see great potential in you, so don't f^ck it up."
"Yes Alpha."
"Your true test will begin to determine whether I'll select you as Alpha or not." Cloud had his full attention.
For the title of Alpha held great authority over the pack.
Nico wasn't quite strong enough to face the Alpha, but some how he had a bad feeling about Cloud being the next Alpha.
He had a long way to go, since he couldn't even handle the pull of the blood moon.
"What must I do?"
"You're going to bite Ricky on the night of the bad moon."
Ricky was stunned and shock to hear that as Cloud gave him a sinister look. He hated the fact that he had to bite him in order to join the pack and at the same time...
"I can't..." He mumbled out looking down towards the ground.
Roman gripped his head from the back firmly and strictly looked at him.
"Why not?"
"I'm...I'm too hungry."
K: Fifty says he'll kill the kid.
J: Fifty says he won't
Klaus and Jaxson remembered their first time they were given an order to bite a human from their previous Alpha Mark many moons ago.
Their training had been very hard and they weren't given any pills to control their inner beasts.
Luckily for both of them, they'd managed to control their beasts and passed the test.
Those that didn't, were thrown out of the pack and became rogues.
That was the law of the pack and that law still remained.
"Well deal with your hunger pangs, because if you don't Cloud, I'll kick you out of the pack." He warned strictly punching his gut one more time before he left the cell.
Jaxson and Klaus had kept a close watch on them every night.
Until one night.
One of them escaped.
