The Threat
"You can't disrespect every member of your clan Emily, definitely not your father, the Alpha, that is against the pack rules," the hard voice sounds behind the table, hitting hard as he states his point.
Council meetings were held almost weekly, summoning Emily Sinclair to constant sessions on having a mate.
"For the hundred times since I turned twenty-one, I do not have the intention to marry, nor will I accept Kane's proposal, he sucks as an Alpha," she shoots out her eyes directly on her.
Every time she is summoned home, she hates it, her father only tries hard to make her see the importance of her union with Kane will make them stronger.
The man was a fierce one, he spends his time fighting against other pack members, he sat close to her father, trying to insert his opinion even without being asked.
"What the pup needs is stronger hands to handle her, you are soft, Alpha Sinclair, she will let your pack crumble if you aren't there to protect it," Kane says.
That has been his only reason for wanting her as his wife, he wants control over the Black Moon Pack, and his guts are the only thing Emily feels like reaping off right now.
Raising to her feet, she hits her palms to the table, anger flailing to her eyes. Her eyes are rimmed red, a bloodshot of emotions as she addresses the man she hates the most, the man she wouldn't trade a smile for.
"You beast, I will keep telling you that I don't have interest in marrying you even if it means sing-songing it till every one of my brown hair turns grey," she blurts out.
The dark-haired man was scuffed with anger, he doesn't know how to control his anger, raging his powers to the bare tip of his fingers.
Tonight, he wore another pair of immaculate black suits, his hair giving more dark vibes to the rest of his being.
He has always seemed a treat, Emily hates his guts, but she would be an outcast sooner than she thinks if she can't find herself a mate. She doesn't care, the last thing she cares about will be not being engaged to this man.
Fuming, Alpha Kane rose to his feet, dragging his fist to the alpha's neck, squeezing the air from it.
"No! don't hurt him," she yells out as the other members from the Dark Moon Pack join her, waiting for the signal to start to transform into their wolf forms.
Kane has this sweet look on his face.
"Hurt him? I have played the suitor for so long, Emily, right now, you have one choice, give in to me, or I kill your father in cold blood," he says.
Her blood boils in her veins, she has always known this man was a bit of a macho psychopath, but right now, he seems mad.
"I knew you were the devil, Kane, and I am glad my father has to see it with his own eyes," she says.
Turning her head to her members, she growls at them, sending signals for the fight to start.
The battle was fierce, she was in her wolf body before she could blink, she had one place to attack, Kane's guts. She will be interested to watch him clutch his neck as he tries to stop the blood from gushing out.
Kane let hold of the alpha when he saw her launching for his body, he couldn't help but push the man down while he transforms into the big black wolf that he is.
Emily is grey, almost white, her eyes bloodshot as she pounces over Kane's body, him using his strength to jerk her off his skin.
The other members from the Red Moon pack__ Kane's pack__ fought with the Black moon.
Kane used his claws to cut through a bigger portion of the lady's ribs drawing blood.
That rusty smell of blood filled the room, the flow of that hot steamy liquid streaking down her ribs made her growl in pain.
Kane was stronger than her, he was more powerful, and as she drifted to her human form, she used her last energy, to reserve half of her tattered clothes against her body.
Alpha Kane's heavy laughter cut through the air as she clutched her side, hurting so badly.
"You beast, I will never marry you, you can go ahead and kill me," she grinds out.
It was not her fault, she is the one who is powerless, her pack lacks the ability to fight, and as the rule states, the stronger packs become owners of the weaker ones.
Alpha Sinclair groaned as Kane grabbed him by the collar of his white shirt. He wasn't a tall man and the reason why he had opted for this union was that he needs a stronger hand to protect his pack from rogues and other stronger packs.
He had failed to see the true man hiding behind the broad shoulders and dark eyes of Kane.
"No, you can't, you would not harm me, Alpha Kane," Sinclair growls out as anger filled his vision.
Emily knew Kane was mad, she had pushed against his boundaries for so long, and everything has to end now.
She stood, wanting to throw herself upon him, but two of his pack members grabbed each side of her arm, throwing her to her feet.
"What about a little action, Emily? don't you want to have some fun?" he asks as he dips his claws into Alpha Sinclair's neck, drawing as much blood as it was possible.
Emily howled, the only word that screamed in her head was revenge.
"Let him go," she says.
"He owes me, and that is you. If you will not marry me, then, I will kill him right in front of your eyes, before claiming you and the rest of the pack as mine," he shoots out.
Alpha Kane was speaking in riddles, she doesn't know why she can't comprehend a thing from what he just said.
What she can't decipher is what her father owes her. She looked at him from across the room, begging for answers, ones that weren't ready to come forth.
"You will kill me before I thread my daughter to you, Kane, you have just shown me how evil you are," Alpha Sinclair says before tipping his neck forward, taking all of Kane's long claws in his neck.
"No! Oh no! father," Emily shouted, rage filling her.
She started to transform when her father's death cutting words hit her.
"I am sorry, Emily, I tried hard to be a good alpha and father to you, the last person you will want to trust is Kane Windwood," he growls out going weak and collapsing to the ground.
