The Alphas Wonder Land Phoenix Mountain Book 9

The T-rex stomps wolves into the ground and eats its way through the war. I’m not sure if it’s eating them or us.

‘We need rockets!’ I run back. I stand in front of our men. ‘C19s. Take to the air!’

A team of six take to the air with C19s on their backs. My eyes follow them as the fly toward the rampaging dinosaur.

I run back and start fighting again. The area starts getting thick as more fighters show up.

‘Back up!’ I order.

‘Second wave! Move!’

I look back and the wave of wolves pours over the barricade and race past me.

The gunners in the C19s fire at the T-rex. One gets a mouth shot and it’s all over for that shape shifter. He explodes from the inside and his remains crush the wolves on the ground below. I kind of hope it wasn’t Nala. She’s too cute to get blown up.

The next thing I see is something I never thought I’d would.

I shift and stand. “What the hell?”

Coming into the battle from the back is a unit of super wolves, but they’ve been fucking cyborged. They’re front legs are robotic along with half their heads and back.

In the lead, is a chocolate brown wolf who also has cyborg tech all over it.

I tilt my head. “Luke?”

He shifts. He raises his hand. “I don’t know you.” He tilts his head in a curious fashion.

I scowl. “Apparently, I don’t know you, either. Who’s your pets?”

They all snarl and snap as I eye them. They turn on sight lights. I look down at the red dots cruising over my body.

“You like the upgrades? I see you’re still working with base models.” He smirks and thumbs over his shoulders. Referring to our super wolves.

I motion my finger to them. “You think all that junk is going to change anything?”

He smiles and crosses his arms. “I know it will. I designed them myself.”

I laugh. “The guy who can barely see straight half the time is a robotics engineer?” Fuck, I’m almost doubled over.

“How about a demonstration.” He says.

The super wolf to his right side launches a mini rocket from his side tech.

“Shit!” I shift and jump out of the way.

“Get them!” Luke orders and the cyborg wolves run at us. They tear through the barricade.

‘OPEN FIRE!’ I run into our area and try the jump on them, but they have a shield around them. Nothings getting through.

I shift and run to the back of a truck. I grab some towels and two full gas cans.

I run in front of the cyborgs, stuff the towels in the gas cans and light them.

I throw one after the other. The gas spills and catches fire under the cyborgs.

Their legs start to burn.

‘KEEP FIRING!’ We circle them and they try to fight back by throwing my men out of the circle, but more of my men join in.

Then their shields fail.

‘Iron!’ I hear guns switch and we fill them with iron lead. They scream in agony and try to run, but we pin them and riddle them with bullets. Their tech starts to malfunction and melt. Their flesh burns.

I run back to the front and shift. My wolf runs through the fight. I need to find the leader of this shit.

Where’s Zander?

I’m dodging fights and weaving around trucks, then I see them. Like I’m seeing double, Zanders and Jakes are staring at each other.

I shift and walk up. “What are you doing? Kill them already.”

Zander puts his hand up to me. “Stay back.” He orders.

“Fuck that! Zan, slice him up!”

“SAWYER, BACK THE FUCK OFF RIGHT NOW!” Zander growls loud.

I grab my chest and fall to one knee. “What the hell?” I pant. That hurt.

I rise to my feet. “What’s going on, Zander?” He kept staring at his counter part. “Jake?”

He looks at me. “You wouldn’t understand, Sawyer. Just go back to the fight.”

I rush them. “No! I’m risking my fucking ass and may not live to see my girl to the moon. You tell me what’s going on….RIGHT FUCKING NOW!” I lose my shit all over them.

Zander rushes me. “This doesn’t concern you.” He snarls in my face. His chest is bumping mine. “Go back to the fight.”

Jake come between us. “Maybe we should tell him.” He looks between us.

“Tell me what?” I spit.

Zander looks at Jake. “No. He doesn’t need to know.”

“Zander. They'll find out.” Jake grabs his arm. “You saw it. In your own head.”

“I won’t involve them.” Zander grits.

Jake grabs his neck. “You can’t hide this from them.”

Zander looks down at the ground.

“You’re…You’re not considering…” I try to find his eyes.

Zander raises his head. “He said it almost worked until he gave in.”

“Zander, no! Are you fucking nuts?! He’ll kill you.”

“If I can control him, I can lure him to the cage. I can’t do that unless I’m close. I need to convince him I’m on his side.” He says.

“No. There’s another way. Zander, he sucks you fucking dry! Look at this place!” I look around.

“He won’t come willingly. If gets a whiff of what we’re doing, he’ll run. I need to weaken him first.”

“How the fuck are you going to do that?” I glare at him.

“The amulet. It will weaken him enough that he can’t fight me.”

I shake my head. “No. No way. I don’t like this plan.”

“I’m not talking about this.” Zander eyes me.

I look him square in the eye. “Me either. I take his gun from his wolf pack and fire a bullet into evil Zanders head. Zander grabs my hand. “What are you doing?!” I fire again and it hits Miracle in the chest. He goes down.

Zander pulls my arm back and takes the gun. “They were surrendering you, fucking asshat.” He growls through clenched teeth.

I clench my own teeth. “They deserve hell!” I rip my hand out of his. We stare each other down. I point in his face. “You go on this mission, endanger us all and the next bullet that finds you, will be fired by me and I’ll plant the fucker between your fucking eyes.” I flare my eyes, king or no king, what he’s planning is so fucking stupid, you might as well hand Eternity the planet.

I walk away and join Jake. He’s crouched beside Miracle.

“Don’t…make…the same…mistake…I did.” Miracle chokes as he lays dying.

“I can’t. I’m not you.” Jake says.

Miracle nods. “You…are. You…just don’t know…it…” He grinds. “Miracle…can tell…you.”

“Who? Who’s Miracle?” Jake asks.

Miracle pushes a finger into Jakes chest. “Ask…him…” He flops onto the pavement and dies.

Jake looks at me confused. “Ask him?”

I shake my head. “I have no clue.”

We stand and turn around. “Where’s Zan?” I ask.

“He must be fighting somewhere.” Jake says.

“Well, let’s not let him take all the glory.” I smirk.

We shift and run back into the fight to spill more blood.

With Zander and Miracle off the board the take down was pretty much easy after that.

I ripped cyborg Luke’s throat out and took off pink eye ladies head.

We loaded cure bullets and these things rocked. They cured wolves in a matter of seconds. Their human counterparts, turned ass and ran away.

RyCal practically tore evil Jayson and Grey apart.

The super wolves buried evil William and ripped his limbs off.

My gunners made evil Mica look like Swiss cheese.

I jumped on a Lycan and separated his head. Bye bye evil Gideon.

We were making sure none of these animals were escaping.

My units circled the outside of the battle and pushed inward.

It was a massive fight. In the thousands. Reduced to barely hundreds. Some did manage to escape and we tore up the rest.

I spit a head on the blood soaked pile in the road.

‘Regroup.’

We all gather. Alpha 1 surrounds me. We’re blood soaked and tired.

I look around the group. “Where’s Zander?”

Owen runs in from the trees. “….Gotta…come…now…” He pants with his hands on his knees. “Zander in trouble.”

“Show us.” I scowl. We run through the trees and it wasn’t long before we saw it.

Zander being held by throat by mirror Eternity.

He had Zanders gold dagger.

“I thought only he could touch it.” I say to Jake.

“I guess his dad is an exception.”

I step forward. “Let him go!”

“See.” Eternity starts. “What makes you even think I would listen to that?”

I was going to answer, but Jake pulled his gun. “Let him go or eat iron.”

“Iron can’t hurt me, son. This can though.” He takes the gold blade and cuts Zanders cheek with its tip. The cut glows white and Zander screams in pain. “Just what I need to take his power.”

“NO!” Jake yells and fires at him.

He drops Zander and growls loud.

We storm him, shift and attack.

We snarl, growl and bite at him. He explodes us out in a ball of electricity. We fly into the trees.

Zander gets to his feet and runs at his father. He lands punch after punch and Eternity delivers a solid punch to the head.

Eternity lifts the dagger and gets to his feet.

He walks to Zander, who’s bells are still rung. He’s on the ground holding his head.

Eternity raises the blade and smiles. “This is going to hurt you more than it will me.”

I get to my feet. “NO!” I ran toward Zander. My no was echoed and I see Graham running from the opposite side.

Eternity brings the blade down and I skid to a stop. My mouth falls open and my eyes go wide.

I look as Graham is hanging onto Eternity and the blade is buried into his chest, sticking out his back.

I shake my head. “No.”

The ground shakes and Graham arches back screaming.

“LET GO!!” Eternity tried to push him off, but Graham has a power coming from him that seems to have him stuck to Eternity.

He starts to glows with electric bolts running up and down his body. It surrounds both him and Eternity. His face is in so much pain and lights burst from his mouth.

“GRAHAM!!” I shout. I run, but he burst into a blinding light. I fall on my ass and shield my eyes. Tears fall from my shocked face as I watch Graham’s body slowly tear apart. Eternity also starts to blow apart.

Jake grabbed Zander and pulled him away.

Grahams screams got even louder and Eternity roared in pain as he held the hilt of the dagger.

The rest of us could only stand there and watch as the ground shook more. The air became electrified and the trees swayed violently as the area got extremely windy. Then with an unimaginable force, Graham exploded. A loud electric boom shook the forest and sent a shockwave that almost knocked us all over.

I flinch hard and shield my face again. “NOOOOO!” I scream.

Ash falls to his knees, along with Hunter and Peter. All in states of confusion and shock.

Darcy fights tears and Brody fights with Mateo, who’s trying to control him as he loses it. Mateo face is frozen in shock.

Owen hangs his head and holds himself.

Zane is grabbing his hair, walking around also fighting tears.

I fall forward my head on the ground. I shake my head in my arms. I scream a loud Alpha growl into the ground. I sit up and look to the deep blue sky.

Graham was a friend. He didn’t deserve this. Fucking Destiny is going to die. I swear on my life. I’ll make him fucking pay.

I stand and turn around. Scrubbing my face and wiping my tears.

Jake is hanging onto Zander who’s sitting with his hands on his knees and his head hung.

I turn back around and walk to the blast site. The shallow crater, where my friend once stood held only two things now.

I wipe my nose and kick Zanders dagger to him. It lands at his feet.

My chin quivers as I bend over and dig Grahams dog tags out of the dirt. I hang them from my hand and walk over to Zander.

I squat down in front of him, grab his hand and slam Graham’s tags into it. He raises his head. His blue eyes are red and full of tears.

I sniff and snarl my lip. “You join him and Graham’s death is on your fucking head.” I hitch.

I stand up and walk away.

“Sawyer.” Jake calls to me.

“Leave me alone.” I growl and shift, running back to the trucks.
