Mercy

The clock continues to tick, I am expecting the blade to make contact with my skin and cut through my poor arm at any moment now. I can’t help but tremble and be engulfed in self pity.

What did I ever do to deserve any of this? I was only six years old when Alpha Theo took over my pack. I have always been an obedient child and made a point to be kind to everyone because my parents would not tolerate anything less. If this is a punishment for a sin I committed, I have no idea what that was.

No, this had nothing with me. Some greedy, evil and stupid human decided to have a nuclear weapon plant. I wish I can one day meet that person and ask him or her what the fuck for? I wonder if they are still alive and if they know the real consequences of their actions.

There are times when I think that the prophecy is my blessing, not today. Had it not been for it, I would have suffered once, died and buried like every heir of the Lilly town wolf pack. Why didn’t the prophecy chose someone else,
