The Wisteria Alpha

CHAPTER 9~Trapped~

Lucian

The hunt for those damned sisters was a bust. For months our men were taken all over the f*****g country, getting lost in confusion spells, and turning up false leads. I was feeling uneasy knowing that I was going to have to report back to my brother soon. Lazarus was going to be furious. Every time he heard of the girls slipping through our fingers, he would rampage for days killing everything in sight.

Sebastian burst into my office, “WE FOUND THEM!” “Where?” I asked standing up. He was trying to catch his breath, his hands on his knees. “WHERE?!” I roared with impatience. “We found them leaving Arizona, headed south. We believe they are headed to Mexico.” I grabbed my jacket. So, they’ve finally made their move towards our holy grounds. “I know exactly where they are going,” shoving past him, I walked out of the office. “Prepare the plane. We’re going to Mexico City.”

“We, sir?” Sebastian asked, trying to keep up with me. “Yes, we.” I smirked. It was rare for me to go out on the hunt, but we couldn’t fail again. Lazarus would kill me if I did. Besides, it's been so long since I’ve seen the twins. They should be 21 by now, perfectly ripe for the picking. My d**k twitched at the thought of them. Soon I’d have them in my bed, begging for me to f**k them.

Lotus

I couldn't believe my pups were already five months old. They were plump with chubby cheeks. My son was chewing on the red bracelet that we had bought from the witch. Gelinda had given me three of everything, but neglected to tell me why. I had just assumed that she had given me spares; just in case one got lost. That crazy old bat could have warned me that I was carrying for three.

Over the past few months, we were gradually making our way to Mexico. I've had a foreboding feeling since we left Arizona, and I was in a hurry to reach our destination. Forest of Nativitas was beautiful, offering more security for us and it would be easier to raise my pups away from mass populations. It was the last safe place that was left on the map mom had left, it was our last hope.

When we crossed the Mexican border, my anxiety grew. At night we shifted and stayed close to the trees. The pups would sleep in their car seats as we gripped the handles in our mouths, running to safety. It took two weeks to cover the large distance. Once inside the forest, we made our way to a cave that was covered with overgrown vegetation.

After going inside, we saw that it was actually an ancient structure, with marble walls and deep passages. We shifted back into human form, quickly getting dressed. “Whoa, this place is insane,” Lila said in awe. “Girls, come on, I still don’t feel right. I picked up my car seat and led the way down the dark corridor.

We had been walking for 20 minutes when I heard a noise. We stopped to scan the dark passage. We heard multiple footsteps, and they sounded heavy. I took off down the hallway, my sisters quick behind me. “I think we missed the turn for the hidden room.” Lily mind-linked us, we didn't dare speak out loud. “I think so too.” I replied. I’m sure we were lost now, as we ran further into the abandoned ruins.

We took a wrong turn in a room with no other exit. My heart was threatening to pop out of my chest, my grip tightening on my son’s car seat. Our pursuers were right down the hall. We had to fight. I motioned the girls to place the triplets in the far back corner, I gave them each a kiss then dropped their car seat covers. Facing the door, we prepared for battle.

Lucian

Myself and three of my men walked into the open room and were greeted with a growl. Miss Lotus has grown to be a remarkable young lady. Her breasts were larger than the last time I saw her, and her hips were wider, begging to be touched. I examined the room, my eyes landing on my twins. They were so unique, their different colored eyes gleaming in the light of the torch that one of my men was holding. Their breast had grown as well and their hips slightly narrower than their sister’s but were still wide enough to entice any man with eyes.

I tsked, wagging my finger towards them, “Ladies, you’ve been very naughty, making us chase you like this.” Lotus growled again. “We could stop all the running now if you would just come with us willing. No one would get hurt, a little roughed up, but nothing too serious.” My men laughed while the sisters glared.

“Why would we go with the people who slaughtered our entire pack?” Lotus spat in disgust. I chuckled, “Lotus, let bygones be bygones. Your bloodline is extinct. All my brother wants to do now is ensure your happiness, with him. He wants to see you heavy with his pup. That’s what I want too.” My gaze lingering on Lily.

“You and your brother can choke on a d**k and die.” Lila snarled. She always had a filthy mouth; I’d have to correct her of that. I scanned the room, noticing the three duffel bags in the corner. I pointed to them, “You poor things, living out of a bag like heathens. Let us take you back.” “Never.” Lily said. I shrugged, becoming bored with this game. “We can do this the hard way, or the easy way.”

I didn’t realize Lotus had moved until she was standing behind Eric. Her tiny body had knocked him down to his knees, her hands gripping his head. “The hard way,” she said, twisting hard, breaking his neck with a loud snap. She’s gonna be trouble. I jerked my head, signaling the men to grab them.

Lotus was already stalking towards me, but was intercepted by Jack. I turned my attention to the twins. Lily and Lila were working together, their claws were out slashing at my man. Lila kicked him in the knee, and he shouted in pain. He grabbed her by the hair, flinging her into the wall.

Her head hit first, and she yelped at the impact. With blood dripping down her face, she reached out. She seemed disorientated and was trying to stand. I walked up to her, placing a foot on her back to keep her down. I bent down and pulled out a syringe filled with wolfsbane and silver nitrate, from my pocket. “Shh, precious, I’ll have you home soon.” I injected her and she screamed while her body convulsed, then she went limp. Her sisters shouted from behind me. It wasn’t a lethal dose; just enough to put her wolf to sleep and slow her healing.

I turned to see how my men were fairing. Marcus was taking blows but so was Lily. Her lip was split and she was covered in cuts, her moves becoming sloppy. I grunted; Marcus will finish her off soon. The problem was going to be Lotus. She had Jack on the ground and she was wailing on him, I could hear his bones breaking with each hit. She stood up dragging his limp body with her. Lifting her hand, she extended her claws, bringing them forward, aiming for his throat. Damn, I really liked Jack.

Before his body hit the floor, I lowered myself and rammed into Lotus. I heard a crack as we made impact with the floor. Lotus screamed, pushing me off of her. She reached down and clutched her ankle. It was bent in the opposite direction, I’m positive it was broken. I stood up and brushed myself off.

Lotus surprised the hell out of me by standing up too, assuming a one-legged pose. She stood on her good leg and brought her wounded one up to her chest, her ankle dangling. Her fists were raised to her face, her eyes steady, as she started to bounce. Her first kick came fast and strong, her shin connecting with my ribs before I could block it. So much force was behind her kick, I had flown a few feet away. I grunted; my ribs were definitely broken. SHE f*****g KNOWS MUAY THAI?

Lily

I had lost my concentration when I heard Lila scream out. Lucian was stepping on her, holding an empty syringe. I took a misstep, and received a blow to the stomach in return. “Eyes on me princess,” he snarled, pulling out a silver knife. He started swinging at me, nicking me. It stung like a b***h and I hissed each time he made contact. My punches were starting to have less impact the more the silver entered my bloodstream.

I heard Lotus yelp, but I couldn’t turn to see what had happened. My assailant was unrelenting, his punches strong. He was backing me into a corner. Over his shoulder I could see Lotus in her Muay Thai stance. She only used that martial art when she was hurt. I needed to end this fast.

My opponent’s fist was flying by my head and I ducked, upper cutting his chin. He grunted, rage making him step forward. My back was firmly pressed against the wall and he grinned when he saw me trapped. Poor guy, I thought. He rushed at me his knife in the air. As soon as he got close enough to strike, I bent down, causing him to miss. His arm hit the wall and he dropped his knife.

I used my thighs to push off the ground, my head making contact with his chin. His head snapped back from force and I bent into a squat again. I leg swiped him, causing him to fall with a thud. Grabbing his knife, I jumped onto his chest, gazing down at my work. He had blood flowing out of his mouth. His jaw was slacked to the side, broken. I jammed the blade through his heart while he stared at me wide eyed.

I looked up to how Lotus was doing. She was dishing out her kicks, adding in punches to throw Lucian off. He was bloodied and bruised, clutching his side. Lotus sent out a kick to his head, but it was too slow. He caught her leg and threw her into the wall. She groaned and tried to get up but he was already on her back, pulling out a few syringes, some dropping to the floor. He plunged one into her skin, she convulsed, then became limp.

I cried, his eyes snapping to me. “Seriously, if you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself.” He stood and started to limp towards me. I tried to get up but the silver in my blood was making me weak, my legs too wobbly to stand. He was right in front of me now, his eyes bright. He grabbed my hair pulling me closer. His other hand was already bringing the syringe towards my neck.

“You’re mine no-” he was saying then stopped. His hands started to shake, causing him to drop the syringe. He fell to his knees, convulsing. Lotus was standing behind him, holding two empty needles. I gazed down at Lucian; his chest unmoving. “Check on Lila.” she said. I pushed myself up and shuffled over to Lila. “She’s breathing, but unconscious,” I reported. Lotus limped over to the triplets and said “Packages are secured. Can you shift?” I nodded.

“We need to leave.” I shifted while she hopped over me. She bent down, scooped Lila up, and placed her on my back. She hopped back over to the pups and tore her shirt. She placed the car seats together and tied the shirt in the middle, leaving a piece hanging. Czarina walked over and grabbed the dangling piece of cloth, lifting the car seats.

We exited the room, Lotus using me and the wall to walk. We returned to the main entrance, then followed mothers map to the safe room. Once inside Lotus settled the pups while I took care of Lila. Lotus hopped around to set up crystals. She splashed our last spell and sat down. “What do we do know?” I asked. Lotus was panting, the wolfsbane taking its toll. She took out her phone.
