Filed to story: Divorce Tears From The Alpha (Ella & Holden)
She could hold her own, each of her team members here knew that, when she had applied to join their team they’d had their reservations about her, because she was wolf-less, but had quickly realised what a good asset she was to their team. She was quiet and light on her feet, didn’t smell like a wolf, which sometimes meant that she could be used as bait for a trap, though Alpha Corey frowned on that deeply, so it was only allowed when absolutely necessary and her safety was guaranteed.
At this moment they were all sitting around chatting quietly amongst themselves. When Ella turned her head at the sound of a gruff female voice, “Hello.” Ella turned to look around her, couldn’t see anyone or anything, that was very weird. A growling, chuckling sound now she heard. Frowned and was about to ask her team if they had heard anything, they should be hearing it. They were all wolves and their hearing was way more acute than hers.
‘I’m not out there Ella…I’m in you still.’
Ella froze, her attention gained instantly, was she going mad ‘what?’ she thought, shooting up onto her feet.
‘I’m your wolf Ky’ra’. Then a massive howl let loose inside of her mind, she shivered. It was so loud and sounded very aggressive.
‘Where have you been?’ Ella had always believed she was wolf-less and at 26 why wouldn’t she?
‘Waiting for you to be strong enough.’
‘I’m strong, had to be.’
‘I’m stronger, faster, will be your protector now.’
Suddenly she could see a dark grey wolf stalking towards her in her mind, and she stalked not walked, her fur looked soft and silken, her eyes were glowing bright green, Ella could feel power pouring off of Ky’ra and towards her ‘We’ll run free soon. Full moon and I am out.’ she snarled, seemed angry she was trapped inside of Ella and unable to get out right that minute.
‘okay.’ Ella had never experienced anything like this before. She felt Ky’ra recede into the back of her mind and settle there. It was the strangest feeling, like there was a heaviness in her mind. She could feel her, and when she reached out to try and talk to her again, she was growled at ‘sleep now.’
Ella didn’t argue, she wondered if all wolves were this aggressive towards their human counterparts.
Her attention returned to the surrounding forest and her team. They were all staring at her, wide-eyed and she noted they had backed away from her, hands all at the ready for a fight. Thomas had a hand out to the men, a gesture she recognised, it was for them to back away.
“What?” she asked them, not understanding why all of a sudden they were ready to fight her.
“Ella, did you just get your wolf?” Thomas asked, his voice was all soft and non-threatening.
Ella frowned at him, he was talking to her in his cajoling tone, what the hell was wrong with him?
“Yes, Ky’ra is her name. Its really weird. Is it always weird?” she enquired, they all had wolves. Actually, now she realised both West and Dean’s wolves were on the surface.
“Oh we saw her, heard her, Ella. Did she try and take control of you right away?”
“What? No, we just talked, I guess we introduced ourselves.”
“Does she seem happy to you?”
“No actually, angry at having to wait for the full moon.”
“Oh I got angry, we all did.” he motioned for everyone to come back and sit down again.
“What happened?” she enquired, clearly she had missed something.
“Oh, just the sudden appearance, your eyes glowed green and your fingers were all claws out and she snarled quite aggressively.”
Ella looked down and glanced at her hands. There were no claws here now. “Isn’t that normal?”
“No.” West frowned at her, “not at all.”
“Oh well, she’s asleep now.” Ella shrugged. Not much she could do about it.
Glancing at the time, she realised it was nearly time to go, mentioned it to them and then pulled her black hood down and her high collar up over her mouth and nose, so only her light honey brown coloured eyes could be seen, her whole outfit was black, including her compound bow and arrow quiver. All her knives were black. This way she was completely hidden in the darkness of the night, when backing them up as she would be doing tonight.
They all stood, the boys wearing easily removable clothing for when they had to shift and fight in wolf form, and here in their camp was a spare bag full of clothing in-case their wolves had to emerge from them without warning and tore through their clothing.
She had seen all of them naked at one point or another. Though she was not interested in any of them, they were nice to look at, her team trained a lot, they needed to, in this line of work. Stealth and agility were a must, but fighting skills needed to be top notch, due to always having to fight it out. Sometimes it was in human form but would usually end up in wolf on wolf fights.
She’d saved each of their butts on more than one occasion with a well-timed arrow or blade to an enemy wolf. This was her part of the job, to watch and assist from a distance, keep her eyes peeled for more enemies and deal with them as silently as was possible.
Ella was perched above them on a hill with a clear line of sight, watching them as they descended into the small valley below. The rogues could not only be smelled from here, but could be heard. She could clearly hear them taunting the captive girls that they had chained up to a tree down there. Ella counted seven female hostages, a dozen rogue wolves and four vehicles. They might not have a real pack, but clearly, these rogues were well organised, well funded and had done this before.
Five highly trained stealth specialists against a dozen rogues. She didn’t much like the odds, but had seen them go in like this before. Ella wondered where the other girls came from, it didn’t really matter, just a passing thought, because they would be rescued along with their own. Alpha Corey would find out what packs they belonged to, make contact and organise for them to be picked up or transported back to their own pack. If any were rogues, they would likely have the opportunity to join the pack.
She scanned the small clearing and then the woods behind it, saw movement, several people moving. Wow, her eyesight was great tonight, sharper and the night appeared to be brighter and clearer, she could feel Ky’ra lift her head in her mind, enhancing her sight. She smiled perks of being a wolf, she guessed. She could get used to this. Her wolf snorted at her ‘you’d better’
