Chapter 2
Just then, I heard sound of blows and kicks instead, I couldn't understand what was going on but I was still afraid to open my eyes.
I don't want to see as life would be oozed out of me, I don't want to have my eyes opened when they will hit me, the blows were sounding In my ears but I can't feel any pain which means I wasn't the one they were hitting, The fist fighting, kicks and groan of pain went louder and intense that I was forced to open my eyes only to be shocked at what I saw,
I was so stunned to see a beautiful lady in a white robe fighting bravely with the men, my eyes flickered and I sat up immediately, I couldn't understand why she was saving me or who she is, her face was strange to me and none of my families and pack members is alive, Who is she then?
I watched as she fought tirelessly, the men were really strong but she got more powers,
She was able to bring down half of them but the others smeared her whole body with their claws, she gasped and clenched her teeth,
They punched her heavily that she fell heavily on the ground, her white gown was smeared with blood this time and as she fell, she spat out a clot of thick red blood from her mouth leaving me in terror as I thought of her dying too,
No, I'm I a curse??...everyone keeps dying for me!!!
Hot tears rolled down and I forced myself up from the ground, my head pound so hard, my whole body was totally weak and I can't feel my legs anymore, they were numb and couldn't carry my body anymore, even when I had succeeded In standing up, I couldn't make a single move...
I felt dizzy and almost fell, my vision was blurry from the intense pain that filled my whole body, I struggled to breathe and stay strong,
My gaze was on the strange lady who got injured from saving me and I wished I got the strength to run up to her and tell her to stop,
Since my pack has gone into extinction, there was no need to stay alive, I can't just help but wonder why everyone wants me alive, I'm as useless as a pup, my wolf is the weakest,
Mom told me I'll avenge them, but how??...
It is useless hoping in me to avenge their death, I am a weakly,
Right now, the lady lay on the ground in pain, the men were coming closer to end her life,
I couldn't stop crying as I made few steps forward gnashing my teeth in the pains from my broken bones and wounds all over my body, my messy blonde hair wasn't even helping matter as it covered my face making everywhere a bit dark, "Please don't kill her, kill me and let her be" I cried stretching my hand to them,
They glanced at me and laughed scornfully,
"Anyone who tries saving you will die with you!" One of them scoffed,
"But she isn't one of my pack, please spare her life, let her go back go her pack" I pressed on in my pleading but the men didn't even say anything again,
They rolled their eyes at me before charging at the woman who was still on the floor in pain,
Just as they got nearer, she shifted into a big brown fierce wolf, they saw it late and had got near so she devoured them all in a rush before they could attack or defend themselves,
She gave them no chance to shift into their beast,
"Wow..." I exclaimed admiring her strong wolf which was full of strength, unlike mine which cowers at a little threat.
Just as I saw the men all on the ground dead, I got a sudden strength which pushed me to where my mother lay,
I carried her up into my laps sobbing profusely,
"Mommy!!!...mommy wake up!!!... I have been saved, the men are dead, your daughter is safe as you wanted, wake up and let's go together!!" I cried shaking her profusely,
She was motionless and the thought of her being dead sent a cold chill from my head to toe, I don't want to believe that but the more she didn't move, the more it is dawning on me...
I bite my lower lips shaking her head again and again as I cried continuously,
I badly wished my mother would open her eyes, that would give me hope but she isn't!
"Take it easy..." I heard the voice of the lady who just saved me and that made me look up to her,
She was wounded but still looked strong,
"Is my mother dead?" I asked with a whimpering tone and she squat down and took my mother hand, she checked her pulse and sighed, "Is she...."
"Wait, take it easy!" She repeated but that isn't what I want to hear.
She tapped my mother thrice on her chest and in few seconds, my beloved mother opened her eyes.
"Mom!!!" I shrieked in happiness, my eyes glistened, I felt joy fill me to the brim, I swear my heart might burst in the joy of seeing my mother wake up,
"Mom, I'm fine, she saved me from those men, we would take you to her pack, they will treat you, you will be fine and we will live fine without anyone trouble again" I kept spluttering as the joy won't let my words flow, I could feel tears of joy roll down... She stared at me and smiled, I smiled back caressing her cheek,
Her eyes moved to the lady who was my saviour and she nodded, the lady also nodded and my mother took her hand,
"Make sure she is safe, she is my only hope, she is the only hope of the pack, take her home and let her grow more, she is going to avenge us with her powers" My mother's words came slow, slurry, soft, weak and under her breath, "Yes, I will...
"Stop!!.." I hushed the woman and turned to mom,
"Hey, what are you saying??.... I'm the only hope??... I'm not the only hope, we are the hope of the pack, you aren't dead, you will be fine and together we will take revenge In the future" I stated curtly with a frown,
Why was mom saying those words like she is dead.,
"You heard me right?" She muffled to the lady who saved me and she nodded,
"Mom stop, Hey..."I called the attention of the woman who saved me,
"Shift into your wolf let's take her to your pack, my mother is alive and that's what I want to know not all these!" I seethed and she made a weak smile,
"Be fast!!!" I yelled exasperated,
She turned her gaze to my mother and I also did the same, I turned to my mother and saw her eyes closed already, I could feel the coldness from her body as it stiffen,
My brow arched, I squinted my eyes and scrutinized her whole body wondering what was going on,
"Mommy!!!" I shouted her name but there was no movement.
"She is dead already" I heard the woman's voice but sneered her instead,
She must be stupid to say my mother is dead, she can't be dead when I just heard her voice now.
"Mommy, open your eyes again!!" I screamed louder and the woman stood up slowly,
"Do that same thing again so she will open her eyes!!" I begged with a high tone that showed how terrified I was.
“།
I gave her my internal power, I will die if I do it again, she also warned me not to repeat it or she won't let it get into her soul and that would be a waste because she won't wake up and I'll also die" the woman explained but it was all like gibberish to my ear, "Wake my mother up!!" I shrilled and she shrugged turning away,
"Let's go out of here before the other men find us," she said calmly but I won't listen, not when my mother just spoke to me now and the next moment this woman is telling me she is dead,
No way!
"Let's get out of here!" She repeated with her tone higher. I rolled my eyes at her and kept shaking my mother fixing my gaze on her eyes, I can imagine her opening those eyes again and that made me sit there shaking her, shaking a dead body that was already cold...
Oh, no, I don't want to believe my mother is dead!
"She told me to keep you safe, you can only be safe under my watch in the pack so get your a*s off there and let's go or my sacrifice to save you will be in vain!" She sighed and I yelped swallowing the lump in my throat,
The tears won't stop dropping as it dawned on me that mom is dead, dad is dead, my pack is gone...
I'm all alone!
