Looking at the child who is nestling his head on my chest in fear, I made my decision. Pulling his face away, I lift his head so his fearful eyes are looking at me.
"Hey kid. Listen to me carefully, will you?" Knowing these wolves have heightened senses, I make sure to choose my words carefully.
"Don't stop. Don't make a noise." I tell him sternly, making him confused.
"Uh?" He sniffs, his mouth forming a pout in adorable manner.
"Just do what I said." I level him with a blank stare, making him nod while his hold tightens on my arms.
My head snaps downward when I heard bone snapping and cracking sounds to see the rouges transforming in their human form.
They will climb the tree much faster in their human form.
Damn their wolf's genes, they would do it so effortlessly. I curse their genes mentally, a scowl already forming on my face.
For a brief second, my eyes snap to the injured wolf and I nod at him. He whines, giving me a pleading look.
I know Rudolf will throw a fit when he finds out that his lap dogs leave me here but who cares about that reindeer right now!
The kid's safety is more important!
I move my attention back to one of the rogues who has bent his legs to jump up when I call out.
"Hey there, mutt." His head snaps him. A growl releasing from his chest, he snaps his canines at me, eyes flashing red with a lethal promise.
"No need to tire yourself, there. I am coming down myself. But before that why don't you all like take a step back? I don't like getting crowded by hairy creatures."
Instead of replying they all ready their stances to pounce. Typical.
In a blink, I grab the kid holding him tightly to me before jumping down a little far away from these wild creatures who immediately take a run towards me.
I almost kiss myself thinking I had decided a correct decision on choosing tree with small length.
Bracing myself against the shock of pain which emerges from my legs due to the jump, I put the kid down and pushes him far away from me, sending a glaring look at the injured wolf. He immediately moves towards the kid and to make sure nobody sees him, I clap my hands.
All the five rogues who were running towards me surround me. Each of them snapping their canines at me. I notice each of them moves in a similar manner.
They are looking wild. Untamed. Not like the pack wolves. They are like Predators with one purpose of hunting and killing.
I know what comes next will be blood and pain. And I know mostly it will be coming from me because I am no match against these creatures.
Hells gate, if I had known about the existence of these creature, I would have made sure to train to fight them too!
Fisting my hands, I dodge the claws which were coming straight to my face before going around the man and slamming both of my elbows on his back with force. He stumbles and falls down on his.
Weak Shit. I thought to myself, amused.
I turned around to block the punch of another man coming towards me. My ears perk the rustling sound coming from my behind and I instantly duck down to find another clawed hand swishing above from where there was just my head.
An angry pit of fire burns in the stomach. I feel it consuming my body and burn my chest until I feel hot all over.
If anyone put a thermometer on me, they sure would diagnose me with a fever.
I curse the day I put a foot on this forest. It's a like bad has been following me since that day.
Maybe that bad luck is Rudolf.
And what the hell is taking him this long to come here? We were not that far for God's sake! Or were we? I thought to myself.
By now each one of them surrounds me and they come at me from all direction. Relentlessly, I tried to dodge each coming attacks while making sure to punch and kick them equally whenever I find a spot.
But no matter how much I fight back, it doesnot look like it had made any difference on them!
Put I am not going without a fight though. Over my dead body. And I can see I will become a dead body soon by the blood which has been oozing out of my skin due to their claws.
Fuck. That look dirty! It could cause infection on my skin.
It won't matter if you are not even alive, Miracle.
I silently agree with my thoughts.
As if hearing my thoughts, a thunderous snarl pierced the forest. The ground shakes under my feet and the birds who had been sitting on the trees, fly away, sensing the danger.
The rogues who had been trying to claw my eyes and skin out from fuck knows how long, stop.
For a fleeting second, i see their bodies shudder in fear. They all look at them in fear, their red eyes frantic before they fall on him and an evil glint formed.
Oh hell no!
I try to step away immediately but too late. The growl distracts me momentarily.
I will kick his butts if it belongs to the person who I am thinking about!
Who announces their presence like this when there is definitely a danger?
Knowing of my mistake, I let the fate plays it's card when I was grabbed from hair and thrown back on the sweaty chest.
Two claws hold my arms, holding me in place, my skin pierced open by the pressure they exert, tearing the shirt I am wearing.
My hairs are in disarray so are my clothes. I would be looking like a tornado hits me out of nowhere. But a satisfied smirk falls on my lips when I see similar damage on these beastly creatures. Broken nose, swollen eyes and cheeks, with cuts oozing from lips. I did a number on them.
Suddenly, human figures emerge in front of us with Rudolf leading. I look at his lap dogs following closely, their eyes screaming for murder.
Rudolf's eyes immediately seeks mine. And I what I see knock the air out of my chest.
Panic. Worry. Anxiousness. Longing.
His eyes scan my form and with each scan, I saw those beautiful eyes changing from worry to anger then outrage.
A vicious snarl leaves his mouth when he sees the claws which have been digging on my arms with blood pouring out.
If the eyes of these rogues were filled with lust and hunger for blood what I see in Rudolf's eyes was more vicious and deadly. It screams pain, a promise of destruction and not an easy death.
Sensing the aura, the notice the rogues trembling. It almost gives me inner peace.
I give a shout to Rudolf,
"Took you long, uh? Where the fuck have you been? You are really not doing a very good job in securing your territory! If I die today, I will make sure you die with me!"
I threw a menacing glare at him. It's all because of him! If he had not brought me here, I would have been at home or punching people at ring. People who are humans.
His eyes slightly soften, a tug comes on his lips. I throw an annoyed look at him.
Ignoring me, his eyes move towards the guy holding me before i see his eyes changing to golden and his body transforming to the shape of the wolf.
It roars when it surfaces and charges without thinking. He was followed by other pack wolves.
Oh here comes more blood. I sigh to myself and brace myself for more shit to hit the fan.
