Chapter-14
The wolf
Alisa
"Stay away from her." Val took out the sharp knife and pointed it at Jack who stumbled back at the suddenness of it and looked at me for answers.
I was too scared for him. If the knife touched him he would be dead. Iron knife could kill wolfes and in case of Jack easily at the point when he is turning and weak.
"Val, he is harmless. Calm down!" I told Val who watched me in horror. Then turned towards him.
"She is acting totally.. Stupid." I heard Harry but ignored him.
"Minutes ago I would have believed you but now. Not possible." She Saud and pointed me to him.
I understood her when I heard a growl. I turned and found a much finer wolf figure than the last time, even though I could still see that this wasn't the full blow of him and he was to still get there, I was terrified.
His body was defencive and alert and formed to attack but eyes proclaimed he was scared.
"Stay behind." Trevor and Harry came before me and that's when Jack got fierce and instead of retreating back he inched to us. His body arched down and eyes turned to weary determination to kill. I was afraid if he got the motive now to shift himself fully. That meant him becoming a real danger.
"He is harmless." I said as I sped to Jack and next instant found myself holding his shoulder. When I was still I realised my stupidity. Luckily, he didn't snap at me at this and slowly calmed. I was surprised he was letting his guard down. It was his stupidity or trust towards me I wasn't sure.
He growled at me again while I just stared him until his real face came to sight. I relaxed after him.
"You forgot the rules I taught you. Again." I said yo him.
He stared me for a while before smiling brightly at me.
Why was he doing this?
Yesterday he hugged me and now this?
I turned away from him and cleared my throat. After collecting myself, I looked up to find three judging eyes at me. I didn't blame them. After all I was saying a wolf was harmless. The only thing that could kill us very easily.
I shrugged and said, "His mother is missing and he had no idea about himself until I got him. And we both can see each other. So-"
"Well guess what we all can see each other." Harry said and laughed but stared Jack. I turned to Jack who just tried to understand the situation.
" By see I mean that we know where we are and what we are doing even being at different places. And it's after my bite that he is going through transformation. He far from the age he should have known about it, gets it now." I told them.
"So you just want the answers to all this?" Jack questioned me. Disappointment clear in them. What did he expect?
"Of course. Why else? Leave a mystery around you and you are behind. I have to solve you." I told him ingoring the corner of my heart there was something about him that eerily told me a different story. I didn't want to go there. That part wanted me to talk to him and just do that. I ignored it because it sounded stupid. After all I am a Vampire and he is a werewolf.
" I should know. "He said and looked down. He remained like that for a while before looking at me back again.
" I am not a game anyone can play." He said and hit me because of the tone of it.
" I was a punching bag. I was bullied. But I had mother then. Now I am no more normal and I don't have my mother for a family. And I am not taking up this s**t. I am leaving and you don't come in my way. "
I smiled remembering even before his mouth worked in from of that bully in the bus. What did he think he could get away from three vampires?
I sniggered and he glared in me.
" Kill me. But I don't care. "He said and shrugged before turning away.
I stopped Val and Harry from launching at him. And this was it. The feeling was coming up and I couldn't force him like that.
" Jack. "
He didn't turn and walked away faster from me.
" Listen to me. " I stood before me in a second and he jerked back.
"If I am capable of killing you then I will for showing up like this." He yelled at me pointing how I emerged before him in seconds.
Well if he knew he fast he could run he wouldn't be angry.
"Will you?" I asked amusement clear in my voice.
He didn't say a thing and walked past me. I grabbed him hand and began, "Listen I said that because they are my friends and they don't consider you as that. You are an enemy. Every werewolf is an enemy. As promised I will help you find your mother. Cool?!"
He stared me and turned to other who just scoffed probably at my words.
" I am might seem stupid Alisa but I am not. I can see now that I am capable of killing you all and that's why I am your enemy. Don't make me feel I am at your mercy. Be good to me. I never had anyone who was good. I-" He said and again he was to cry.
I hugged him and it was undecided one. As done I did not get away from him like last time but he pulled away soon.
" If you are playing with me then I will kill you if I can. " He said and shrugged. It stupidily hurt me when it shouldn't. I was supposed to be happy that he was staying without using force.
While I was in my thought process, my friends ran to us and threw Jack over the floor to bound him. Unlike other times Jack growled loudest and his clothes flew in the air tearing from his body.
Momentarily off of mind, I moved sidewards to look at his brown furry body growing little by little beneath the hand of Val and Harry who strived hard to keep him in place.
I just stared his body growing larger than any werewolf I ever saw. I searched for an any alpha of a pack that I killed myself in my mind but noone was anything like Jack's wolf. He was beyond splendid. I almost ached to touch the brown him.
"Al." Val brought me back and I took few more seconds to find it was cry for help.
Do I wish to go to them and bring down Jack?
No.
Just then Jack succeeded in throwing them off of him before growling in anger. It shook me a bit. His paws in the defenseive position moved through the air to challenge us. Val and Harry were planning on getting him again.
I knew they would find a way get him down after few tries and I didn't want that so I run to Jack who jumped to get my throat and pushed me dowm the hard ground. Only if he knew how to kill, I would be dead.
Still with the sharp claws around my neck, I knew he would have torn my head. I was so stiff to fight let alone react. Our eyes met. His wolf eyes was deep black, not at all Cloe the peaceful brown orbs made me feel it wasn't him at all. But little by little it changed to real his like the darkness was lifting of it.
Next second he was off of me and away. He just cut through the air and out of my sight.
Without thinking, I followed the same direction as fast as I could. I didn't how much i ran before I stopped realizing I lost him.
" What the f**k you think you are doing?" Val yelled at me in anger. Even I didn't have an idea.
"I have to get him." I whispered.
"This is the right thing you have said after him." Harry commented.
"Not to kill or bar him. But as a friend. I want to be nice to him." I said and I believed I wanted that. They both just stared me.
I know why. Because they just faced the wolf that took down three Vampire and struck one too deep to handle.
