CHAPTER-9

Knox P. O. V

'It is a big ball room, and a big chandelier is hanging from the ceiling . Different people socialize with each other but everything is blurry. People are wearing masks. Some are dancing , a group of musicians playing instruments but I can not hear anything. Women are wearing ball gowns and men are wearing three piece suits.

The steward announced the name of the new arrival person. I can not hear it . A man entered with a elderly couple in front of him. His face is not clear. I have seen this man so many times in my dream but I can not see his face till now.

When I was kid I used to get this kind of dream more but now it is coming frequently. Mother tried so many spells but it never worked. It's like this dream is trying to tell me with different visions but nothing . In my dreams I saw a man and a woman figure. In one of those dreams I saw someone kill them. It was a woman wearing a cloak, she had a dagger. She tried to stab the man but the other woman came in front of him . There were rogues behind them.

I did not remember clearly but I remember a few details like they were running from something or more like someone. I never saw the face of the woman wearing a cloak. I had that dream a long time ago so I did not remember much.

I see the man moving his head in the left and right direction as if he is searching for someone. Women flock around him to get his attention. He ignores them and pushes past them. He starts talking to a group of men. Soon the steward says something and all the fanfare trumpets hold up in the air . The trumpeters start playing.

No sounds come to my ear . It was like watching a blurry movie without sound. It is starting to piss me off. Who are these people? Why do I see them in my dreams? Do I know them? How am I related to them?

The woman I see so many times descends down the stairs in a red and black gown . The steward introduced to everybody.Everyone is looking at her with respect. Many people come forward to talk to her. I look at the man from my dream and see his attention is already on her.

The girl moved to the center.The musicians started playing. Everybody gathered on the dance floor, men took their respective female partner by taking one hand in their hand and placed the other hand around their partner's waist. The female partner places their other hand on their companion's shoulder and starts dancing. It looks like old British balls.

Somebody asked the girl to dance. I felt a weird sensation in my chest like a plang of jealousy. How is it possible I never even the face of the girl. They sway together with the music. After sometime they all stopped and bowed. I think the song ended. The partner changed ,this time I saw the man from my dream pulled the girl toward himself. They just stare at each other in the eyes'.

Then suddenly my head starts buzzing. I wake up without completing the dream.

My head buzzed again. Somebody is trying to connect me through mind-link. It is my beta Carlos .

'Alpha, a group of rogues, attack the West border. They are more than ten'.

'Get fifty warriors with you and attack them. Stop them from coming near pack houses and the city'.

'Yes Alpha'.

I disconnect the mindlink and get up from my bed.I quickly leave the pack house and run to the West border. When I reached there I saw my warriors were fighting with rogues. There are around thirty or maybe more rogues.

When I look at the rogues I feel a painful shock pass through my head. I see the couple from my dream and the rogues were standing behind them growling and the cloak figure standing in front. As fast as it came it went away. I shake my head to clear my head.

When my head was clear enough to see properly, that killed many of my pack members. I sped to the field and shifted in mid air and landed on all four. I grabbed one rogue by the nap of his neck when he was trying to attack one of the members of my new circuit of warriors.

I bite hard on his neck exerting more pressure. He whimpered in pain , he tried to free himself but of no use. His body went limp after some struggles. I was killed by digging my claws in his belly.

A rogue attacked me from behind by grabbing my neck but I managed to throw him before me on time when he tried to bite me harder. The rogue soon gains his strength. We circled each other, growling, snarling and baring our canines at each other. The rogue attacked fast but I was prepared, I extended my claws and clawed diagonally from his right eye to left jaw when he came close to me . He jerks back in pain. Range flared in his eyes. He pounced on me but I was fast. I caught him by the midline of the neck in time and flipped him on his back. He moaned in pain, he struggled, clawed and tried to attack me while lying beneath me.

My wolf placed his pow on the rogue's chest. He pushed him deep in the soil with his strength. Bone cracking is heard in the air. The rogue below me whimpered. He is struggling for air, twisting and turning but all attempts are fertile. I dig my claws on a portion of his heart and drag my claws slowly to make him feel the pain. To show the other rogues what happens when you disrespect me or come into my territory without my permission and kill my people.

By now the whole battle has stopped. Everybody is looking at what I do to invaders with a sick or fear expression.They did not even see what I do to the people who betray me in my dungeon if they knew they would have left this pack with their families a long time ago.

The only person who is not showing any emotions is Carlos . That bastard is worse than me. He never spared anybody. He kills first then listens. He is a heartless motherfucker but he is my best friend, my back bone after my father was killed. He was the only one who stayed by my side other than my mother and sister.

I tore down a huge part of flesh and pulled his heart along with the flesh .Blood burst out from his body and covered my face and fur. He died instantly. I stood up straight and growled loudly. My pack members bowed their heads in respect to me.

I shifted back into my human , the others followed my lead. A warrior quickly came forward to give me clothes.

Carlos stood in front of me and look directly into my eyes with a stone face .

"Alpha two rogues are still alive. What are we going to do with them? " As cold as ice voice.

" Bring them to the dungeon".

"Yes Alpha".
