Chapter 2

Karla:

"Alpha Killian..." His name left the lips of the man in a scary whimper. If the man was acting tough in front of the beta and gamma a while ago, that toughness seemed to disappear almost immediately and was replaced with terror.

The young man that was just referred to as Killian smirked, "I like the fact that my present rattled you, you should start spilling before I lose it." He gestured for the man to get on his feet, but instead of him to do what he asked for, the man went on his knees to plead for mercy, and he kicked the man's hand from his legs as his feet went on the man's chest. "Don't make me repeat myself, I hate it when people cross me and want to plead innocent. You are guilty and you know it. So start speaking." His voice becomes deeper. I wondered what the man did to them. "You thought you could sneak into my territory, spy on my Pack and leave unsheathed? Pathetic. You are not just a failure, you are a worm groveling in the dirt. Too foolish to realize the head of the beast you were sent to get. Did you think I wouldn't smell your cowardice? That I wouldn't see through your lies? Maybe, they didn't tell you that when the last three later of my name is removed and replaced with "er," I become a killer. I am alpha Killian, the beginning and the end and you are nothing in front of me. One thing awaits you, even if you tell me who sent you or don't even want to spill, you will still die." He stressed the word die and it made my heart palpitations increase, those words weren't just rumors but facts, he was sinister, a monster, and sadistic.

He grabbed the dagger of the male that was on the floor, even though he didn't beat the male, the male was like a wounded wolf. "This will serve as a lesson to whoever sent you and others who dare to defy me. Remember your suffering isn't personal... It's a warning for the rest of the wolves. Cross me and you kiss the dust..." He raised the dagger and buried it in the man's tummy, the man's screams slice through the night, raw and horrifying. He frantically tried to pull the dagger, Killian twisted it, letting out another ear-piercing scream, the man looked pale, his face covered with pain, as if that wasn't enough, Killian pulled out the dagger, his hand went into the man's tummy. His face contorted with pain almost to the verge of death, while Killian's claws grew, he ripped out the man's intestines and watched his beta turn his gaze from the man whose blood was everywhere including the body of Alpha Killian.

I watched in horror and wondered where in goddess name this alpha came from. I know father was a beast but I don't think he comes anywhere near this man. He has an animalistic way of killing, that was foreign to me and I guess not to my beast father. He is brutal, he leaves his victims no chance to survive and they see death right in front of them before they finally pass out.

I saw the man's eyes widen with his mouth a gap, eager to say something but his words died down his throat before he could even say a word, his life was snapped from him. His arm fell back to the floor and his body pummeled.

I wanted to turn my head, I haven't seen much blood all my life, even though I have heard my beloved sister, Anastasia boast about how bloody my father is with his warriors and traitors. 'he is sinister?'

'more like a handsome sinister,' Nyx commented, I saw his face suddenly grow dim, and his nose flared, his fist balled.

"Alpha is there something wrong?" His beta asked.

"Fuck..." He cursed before he scrubbed his face with his bloody palm.

"Alpha..." Gamma Ryder called but he turned suddenly.

"Why the fuck didn't you tell me someone..." He stopped himself and stood from the floor, his eyes roving the area and I withdrew behind the huge tree holding my breath.

'Did he smell us?' I asked Nyx.

'I don't think so, have you forgotten that our scent is hidden?' Nyx said.

"Dispose of the body and make sure you increase the security at the North border and that of the East."

"Yes alpha, your clothes, they are right close to that tree foot." My heart dropped when my gaze fell on the foot of the tree, I was hiding behind, his clothes were just there neatly folded right on the root.

'we are doomed.' my wolf whimpered in my head as the alpha took each step closer, giving me another free show of his body. He is huge down there.

He walked slowly to the tree before he stopped right beside me, I held my breath and shut my eyes, I think I heard him mutter something before he picked up his shirt and then turned fast and turned from the tree. "Don't think I didn't see you there." He mouthed immediately after his men were out of sight.

I know he was talking to me but I didn't come out, I didn't want to act stupid like what I did the first time his gamma and beta asked that dead man to stop, thinking it was me, maybe, it wasn't me as well. "Don't make me force you out of there, if I do you won't like what I will..."

"What will you do? Kill me?" My voice was laced with annoyance as I came out of my hiding, no need to act like a mouse, if I should die then I should act like a brave cat.

His eyes softened from being murderous to surprise and switched again, almost immediately before I could recognize the reason for that.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" He growled.

"Why? You are mad because I know your dirty secret?"

"You should watch your words if you don't want me to do evil things to you." His voice becomes deeper and deadly, his expression deadly and without emotions.

"What could be more evil than to kill someone? An innocent soul..."

"He is not innocent..." He interrupted me before his jawlines tighten, "Death is not the only evil thing, I could do, I could do a whole lot of evil things to you, things that will make you scream out your lungs while I toy with that beautiful flowers between your legs, you will beg for me to stop but I wouldn't, I could choke you with my fingers grip around your throat while I force my wienie down your throat with your hand's handcuffs behind you ..." I shifted backward as fear grips me, I didn't think of that, I didn't remember that I am a female and I was standing nude in front of a beast, I grabbed my hair, and throw it to my front to cover my tits, my hair was always long never been trimmed since I was a baby. "Now you are scared?" I force a chuckle, shaking my head.

"Nah... I can't be scared of you, never..." My voice came out well calculated, hearing my voice one will think I am the bravest in this forest.

His expression was still void, and his eyes were fixed on me with his foot rooted to the floor. He reached to grab my hand and I turned suddenly, he didn't expect that fast reflection because in a blink I was almost two feet away from him. His forehead creased making him look hotter than he already was.

I was born with the ability of fast reflexes, it's almost like magic that I could be close in a second while far in the next second, don't get me wrong, I don't appear and disappear, I just know I have fast reflexes ability, I still couldn't explain it, all I know it help me get away from troubles.

"Sorry alpha Killer, you aren't killing this wolf today maybe some other time but not today," I said winking at him before I turned on him. "Goodnight killer..."

"My name is not Killer..." He growled and I tittered inwardly, didn't he just say his name is Killer, why is he getting irritated when I call him that?

"I know but when the last three letters of your name are replaced with "er," it becomes Killer." He growled in frustration

When I gave him one last look, his forehead creased, making him look more sexy and appealing, I was infuriating the alpha and I liked it.

"Nice to meet you Killer but I got to go." I make sure to use the name he hated to hear before I leap into the air and shift into my wolf. I didn't give him another glance before I started running. I know he might come after me but I was fast.

I heard an earth-shattering growl before I heard paws land on the ground, I guess he shifted as well and was running after me, 'Fuck...' I curse inwardly while Nyx giggles in my head, she always enjoys the naughty side of me even though she always kicks against it most time.

We need to run faster, there is no way, we will let this alpha find out where we are from. And as usual, Nyx didn't disappoint me, she ran faster, till we were out of sight of Killian, the handsome sinister.

After much running, we finally get back to the pack and the back of the Packhouse.

I shifted back to my human form, while I walked slowly to where my clothes were neatly folded. I bend to pick it up when a scent hits me, I know it is my nanny, she must be waiting for me.

I couldn't help but facepalm seeing how worried she looked, I told her already that I was no longer that ten-year-old pup that she always had to wait for but she didn't listen. She is always worried for me.

"Why didn't you tell me, you were going for a run?" She said softly, stretching my pajamas for me, it's obvious that I can't wear my gown anymore.

"I told you, not to worry about me and this was what I was avoiding, now you're out here in the cold waiting for me."

"I am a shifter, I don't feel cold and you know you are like my daughter, I couldn't sleep knowing you are out there on your own and your parents will have my head, if they found out, you are out of the pack while I am sleeping, it will not end up well for the both of us."

I let out a frustrating sigh, I couldn't wait to turn eighteen and get out of this hellhole or probably find my mate, maybe he could take me away from here.

"You need to get back to your room, your parents are back and they had important issues to discuss with you and your sister, it wouldn't be long before the warrior they asked to fetch you, got to your room, so hurry." My brows furrowed, I thought my parents were not coming back till the next three days and if they were back it only meant one thing, one of us, was being sold as a mate to one of those alphas as a bargain for an alliance.
