Thor
Ryker and I were seated in the throne room, glancing around as the guests walked inside. Kushiro had stupidly invited numerous guests, using the wedding as an avenue to brag.
Kushiro was beaming as he greeted all the alphas with his Luna. I rolled my eyes, I couldn't wait for this to be over.
Weddings were one of the most stupid things, why gather the world for a union that's not real? Everyone in the world got married for one deal or the other, true love was a lie used to deceive the younger ones.
Svetlana walked in and I glanced around, waiting for Elena and her maid to walk in but nothing.
Ryker and I exchanged glances, we were obviously thinking the same thing. Ten minutes later Elena walked in alone.
"Something is up." Ryker muttered and I nodded. My wolf was at the edge, he was stirred not for war or sex, it felt like there was danger lurking at the corner, ready to happen.
He was restless, I hated it when he was like this, he wanted to come out as soon as possible.
Both ladies walked towards us and just as we were about to appear before the priest, I stifled a growl while Ryker's eyes flickered, showing how he was wrestling for control with his wolf.
It was taking quite a lot to suppress my wolf and just as Elena touched my arm, I snarled, taking a step back like her hand burned.
Ryker's fur was beginning to appear and without warning, we both began running out, causing a commotion in the hall.
Our wolves were one now, no words were exchanged but we both knew where we were headed.
Making a half shift, we raced towards the park borders, the faint sweet smell of cherry pulling us close.
It wasn't a mate bond, the urgency that came with this was far from the mate bond, this was no different from a part of us being in danger and crying out for help.
Taking a turn towards Dylan's pack made it evident that the slave had been kidnapped.
Without thinking, we raced into the pack, snarling and growling as we attacked the guards that stood in our way.
There was a crazy urgency inside us, it felt like one minute late and she'd be dead already.
"Alphas… What about the wedding? Alphas, where are you at? I can bring the guards…"
"Cancel the wedding!" We both mindlinked to Nikolai before ending the mindlink harshly.
Arriving at the pack, her faint scent directed us towards the room, many guards attacked, a few shot at us with their guns but it was like being pricked with a needle.
We roared as we paused in front of a door, I scratched the door with my claws, drawing long lines on the weak door.
"Draw as many bags of blood as possible! I don't give a fuck about what happens to her! Do not get…" Dylan was still speaking when ran into the door.
With just one push, the door burst open, wood flying around.
Dylan was filled with terror and so was the little doctor beside him.
The slave was strapped to the bed, a drip connected into her hand as blood was being drawn out.
Ryker snarled loudly, inhaling the air, her blood had a sweet enticing smell and goddess knew we wanted to pull out the damned bag and drink from her arm directly.
I could feel my wolf snarling and clawing at my insides, seeking out just so he could pounce on her.
Ryker pulled the drip out while I grabbed Dylan, throwing him into the wall with rage.
Slowly, I reverted to my human form, Dylan standing a few steps away from me. I wanted to kill him but at the same time I wanted to torture the hell out of him and find out why he needs her blood.
"You bastard… What are you doing to her?" I demanded, my hand raised and he growled, panting softly.
"Why does it matter to you? She's my mate and just a slave, you have no business with her." He muttered weakly and I growled.
"She's mine! My slave, she doesn't belong to you anymore and I won't sit back and let you touch anything that belongs to me with those filthy hands." I retorted as I threw a punch at him, making him pant heavily.
"Why! Why the fuck is she so special to you? Why can't you fucking let go of her! Do you think she's your mate? She's mine! She belongs to me! She's got my scent on her and she'll never accept you! She'll never accept the two men who sent her to a sex den!" He growled and I threw another punch, my hand covered in blood as I drew back, ready to hit him again.
"Let him be, he has always been useless, just like his weak mother." Ryker stopped me, he had the slave in his back and I scoffed as I glared at Dylan.
"You're pathetic if you need this slave to attain power." With this, I threw him roughly as we made a half shift, carrying the weak and numb maid out.
She had been drugged with midazolam, she couldn't move but she was conscious of everything happening.
"Clear the den, I do not want to see a single guard." I mindlinked to Nikolai.
"Yes, Alpha."
Without exchanging words, we headed to the den, knowing fully well if we neared the pack house, it would cause a great commotion.
I could smell her fears as we walked into the den, her eyes were filled with fright, it felt like she was reliving the memory of her past experience and I shrugged as I placed her in our room.
"It'll take a few hours for her to be fine, I'm sure she'll be okay…"
"Alphas… What about the wedding? Alpha Kushiro has refused to leave the hall and he feels humiliated…"
"I don't give a fuck, Nikolai, he can't take his little brats with him and leave the pack for all I care, I can get any slut I want at any time." Ryker growled.
