Life After the Storm

chapter 35

IVAN'S POV

I have never felt so helpless in my life. As I wait for what is about to happen, I clench my fist as I prepare myself for the pain I'm about to feel. I look at the men as they shift into their wolves. I try to remember every feature of my attackers, hoping to be able to identify who is doing this to me to understand why they wanted to kill me so badly. Especially on how they decided to kill me, fuck they are cowards couldn't even allow me a chance of fighting back.

As I watch them tear my body apart, all bite and claw marks. Their mouths covered in blood drip from their lips as they lick up with their tongues, just to begin again. Wanting to black out or just die from all the pain I'm feeling, wondering if they're going to eat me alive.

Then All of a sudden, I'm in shock when I hear Jenny's voice, and then it confirms it's her when I see her human as she is walking up to me with her blood covered lips. I look and see a machete in her hand then fear begins to overwhelm me as I want to move away from her, but I can't, I try to move, but my body is still as she is getting close I see as she lifts the machete up over her shoulder and is getting ready to finish me off. I scream, warning her to stop, but she doesn't listen to me. Then I'm woken up by the most beautiful voice.

"Ivan Ivan Ivan, wake up your dreaming you are safe now Ivan, please wake up."

I go to sit straight up, not noticing my surroundings but smelling my mate knowing she is with me is what makes me calm myself and not panic. Not realizing I was dreaming, it felt so real. I feel so weak knowing I was just defeated, wondering what kind of Alpha I am. How am I going to be the Alpha that my pack needs if I'm so easily defeated?

I look around noticing I must be in her bedroom thinking that this must be where Lilly lives as her scent fills my nostrils. I can't help but to inhale deeply. "Lilly, where am I?"

She grabs my hand, shocked that I can see the worry in her eyes. "Ivan, you are in a different pack, I brought you to mine. I was worried that whoever hurt you would try to do it again."

"Where might that be?"

"I'm not sure of the name, but it is run by Alpha Landon."

I struggle to control my anger as I'm starting to be able to move again. "Lilly, I need to get out of here, I need to get back to my pack, they maybe in danger."

"Landon saw your pack, there was no sign of danger."

"Lilly, I need to get out of here right now. I can't stay, I need to go." As I struggle to stand, once I get to my feet I go to fall as Lilly catches me.

"Damn it Ivan, you are not strong enough to go anywhere, I don't want you getting hurt again."

"Lilly, look at me. You need to get me out of here now. I need you to call Sam. I have his number, and tell him to come as soon as possible."

"Ivan, please just calm down."

"Lilly, it was Jenny, his sister, who attacked me. She may come here." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"What Ivan, that is impossible Jenny wouldn't do something so evil, she is a good person."

"Sometimes people will do whatever they need to get what they want."

I force myself to get up as her hands touch my chest, sending electronic ways through my body, her trying to prevent me from leaving. I don't understand how her touch can feel this way. I prefer not to leave her, but I need to. My pack may be in danger, and I am not there to protect them.

"Lilly, my pack is unprotected, I need to go."

"Ivan, you're not strong enough to go anywhere, you lost a lot of blood. Please just stay in bed."

"Lilly, something isn't right. If you want me to stop, then get Sam here now."
