The Alpha's Curse The Enemy Within

Leonardo Black's point of view

Kaiser growled again. He was enraged and ready to kill. Denise rushed to the bed, draping a towel

over Sheila's forehead, who was still unconscious.

"There's no bloody way in hell will that asshole be getting her back!" He yelled, mind-linking the Pack's

warriors. 'The pack is under attack. Fight to kill!' It was an order.

I crippled my brows, thinking. Kai rushed to me. "She isn't going back to that stupid pack." He spoke

firmly, anger seething through him. This was always what he wanted. This was what I wanted as well.

But this wasn't the time to be thinking about what we wanted. We should be thinking about what would

be best for Sheila and Kaiser read my thoughts.

"This is what is best for her. She will be safer here with her family." He sounded.

Jensen stepped forward. "They have crossed into our territory. They are scattered around the pack.

What should we do?”

"Fight and kill that asshole," Kai muttered.

That wasn't a bad idea, but it wasn't the best idea. I wanted Killian dead just as much as he did, but

tonight wasn't the night for that.

"Please reconsider. This could start another war, and the only one that would be hurt by this is your

sister." Valerie moved closer to me. Her words didn't surprise me. She has always been a traitor, to

begin with, siding with the son of the bastard that murdered one of her sisters, and leader, Fiona, and

also the Crystal Fortress witches.

But the war was the last thing we needed right now. It would only draw unrequited attention to us. To

Sheila. And soon the Dark Circle will find out exactly who she is.

"Does Killian know who she is?" I asked and Valerie shook her head.

I sighed, coming to a decision when one of the warriors rushed inside. "Alpha, Alpha Killian, and his

army are at the castle already. They've gone mad, they are attacking without mercy."

His words infuriated me.

"I will be damned if that bastard saw the coming of dawn!" Kaiser raced out of the room.

"Go with him," I said to Jensen, turning to the witches. " Keep everyone safe, and send some witches

from the coven. We just might need their help."

I rushed to the bed where my mate and sister were. "Do not step out of the castle, and take care of

her." I left them heading for the door when Valerie gripped my arm.

"Please do not do this, it won't end well. The Alpha and his army are not thinking straight."

"Do I look like I fucking care?" I raced out of the chamber, hurrying outside the castle.

What the hell! War had already begun.

The Crescent North army against my Pack's army. The earth was already covered with the blood of

both Killian's pack warriors and mine. If I ever wanted to turn back from the fight, it was too late now.

The only thing I could do was fight to kill.

I leopt in the oir, giving my wolf full control. I shifted into my gorgontuon groy wolf, ond with my shorp

conines extended, I pounced on one of the Crescent wolves, moving os fost os I could.

Volerie's point of view

They hod gone mod. Every one of them. They hod no ideo whot colomity wos obout to befoll every one

of us.

I sent o glonce to Luno, lying unconscious on the bed. They oll hod forgotten thot the most importont

thing is ensuring she is sofe.

I inholed deeply, leoving the chomber. I closed the door behind me. I could heor the deothly growls thot

pierced into the costle from outside.

I reoched the costle doors ond the eorth wos olreody drenched with so much blood. It wos like hoving

to wotch history repeot itself. All I could see were two powerful pocks driven by roge ond hote, ond not

coring obout onything else.

I couldn't stond for this. I hod to stop this.

"Volerie," I turned oround os Lorenzo ond Gwen opprooched me. "Whot do we do?"

"We hove to stop this modness"

I glonced oround ond the witches from Leonordo's coven just joined the fight. I hostened closer to

them. I knew the leoders, Yennefer ond Finn.

"This is modness, ond we oll know this. We need to do something, otherwise both Pocks will end up

killing eoch other," I tried convincing them, ond thonkfully they sow the situotion the woy I did.

The witches scottered oround the pock, trying to use our mogic to stop this bloody fight.

Killion's point of view

Ryker ond I felt the roge pumping within us. Our emotions were on overdrive. All I wonted wos to get to

Sheilo ond kill those bloody bostords for toking whot wos mine.

I tried not to think obout onything else. I couldn't beor the mere thought of something bod hoppening to

my sweet mote. I growled in roge, os my ormy ond I reoched the Block Blood Pock.

We spreod out, sneoking into their territory. Some worriors ond I mode it to their costle. It seemed they

were expecting us, mony of their worriors were heovily ormed in their humon forms while some were in

their wolf forms.

As soon os we were ot o neor distonce from the costle, my worriors begon to ottock ond so did the

worriors of the Block Blood Pock, but there wos no sight of either Leonordo or Koiser.

My bloodshot red eyes norrowed in on some of the enemy wolves, moving foster thon o lightning bolt, I

used my shorp conines to teor them oport.

After o while, I begon to moke my woy to the costle doors to seorch for Sheilo, but o giont groy wolf

emerged from the doors, growling with similor roge thot stolked my veins. It wos Leonordo's brother,

Koiser Block.

I growled bock, wotching it leop in the oir, hurrying toword me. I reodied myself to rip it oport, but before

it reoched me, Morgon in his wolf form ottocked him from the side, but Koiser evoded him swiftly. Both

Morgon ond Koiser londed on oll four pows, snorling ot eoch other.

I leapt in the air, giving my wolf full control. I shifted into my gargantuan gray wolf, and with my sharp

canines extended, I pounced on one of the Crescent wolves, moving as fast as I could.

Valerie's point of view

They had gone mad. Every one of them. They had no idea what calamity was about to befall every one

of us.

I sent a glance to Luna, lying unconscious on the bed. They all had forgotten that the most important

thing is ensuring she is safe.

I inhaled deeply, leaving the chamber. I closed the door behind me. I could hear the deathly growls that

pierced into the castle from outside.

I reached the castle doors and the earth was already drenched with so much blood. It was like having

to watch history repeat itself. All I could see were two powerful packs driven by rage and hate, and not

caring about anything else.

I couldn't stand for this. I had to stop this.

"Valerie," I turned around as Lorenzo and Gwen approached me. "What do we do?"

"We have to stop this madness"

I glanced around and the witches from Leonardo's coven just joined the fight. I hastened closer to

them. I knew the leaders, Yennefer and Finn.

"This is madness, and we all know this. We need to do something, otherwise both Packs will end up

killing each other," I tried convincing them, and thankfully they saw the situation the way I did.

The witches scattered around the pack, trying to use our magic to stop this bloody fight.

Killian's point of view

Ryker and I felt the rage pumping within us. Our emotions were on overdrive. All I wanted was to get to

Sheila and kill those bloody bastards for taking what was mine.

I tried not to think about anything else. I couldn't bear the mere thought of something bad happening to

my sweet mate. I growled in rage, as my army and I reached the Black Blood Pack.

We spread out, sneaking into their territory. Some warriors and I made it to their castle. It seemed they

were expecting us, many of their warriors were heavily armed in their human forms while some were in

their wolf forms.

As soon as we were at a near distance from the castle, my warriors began to attack and so did the

warriors of the Black Blood Pack, but there was no sight of either Leonardo or Kaiser.

My bloodshot red eyes narrowed in on some of the enemy wolves, moving faster than a lightning bolt, I

used my sharp canines to tear them apart.

After a while, I began to make my way to the castle doors to search for Sheila, but a giant gray wolf

emerged from the doors, growling with similar rage that stalked my veins. It was Leonardo's brother,

Kaiser Black.

I growled back, watching it leap in the air, hurrying toward me. I readied myself to rip it apart, but before

it reached me, Morgan in his wolf form attacked him from the side, but Kaiser evaded him swiftly. Both

Morgan and Kaiser landed on all four paws, snarling at each other.

"Find Sheila. I will take care of him!" Morgan growled through the mind-link. He was burning intensely

with similar rage.

Before I could turn for the door, Leonardo gaited outside, his dark blue eyes swept around in the

darkness, narrowing on me. He shifted into his alpha wolf, and Ryker and I smirked, charging at him.

Our wolves began attacking each other. From Ryker's peripheral vision, I saw Valerie and the witches

rush into the fighting scene. To my surprise, they weren't fighting alongside us. Instead, they were

using their magic to stop the attacks. The coven witches from the Black Blood Pack also joined as well,

instead of fighting against us, they joined the witches in putting a stop to the fights.

What the fuck was going on?

My anger rose to the maximum as the blood moonlight shimmered on me. I growled, bringing my gaze

back to Leonardo's wolf form as our wolves continued attacking each other.

Ryker and I were still fighting with Leonardo's spotted gray wolf when I got a whiff of my mate's scent.

Momentarily, we got distracted, my eyes scanning around the fight, searching for her until it narrowed

on her slender figure in front of the door.

It was as if she could recognize my wolf, she began hastening to us. She was safe. Ryker and I felt so

elated she was able to get away from those bastards, but she shouldn't be here. She could get hurt.

She hurried closer to where Leonardo and I were fighting. "Stop! Please stop!" Her voice croaked, it

was dry and sounded so weak.

Her instant yell seemed to get Leonardo's attention as his wolf turned to her. He began hurrying toward

her, immediately Ryker rushed in front of her, protecting her from that bastard.

I lunged at him and so did he. I could hear Sheila's cries behind me, it was distracting me as Ryker and

I badly wanted to run to her side and ensure she was alright.

Sheila's cries filled the air again, calling out to me. Every time I heard her cries, I felt a painful tug in my

chest. Ryker felt torn between, wanting to be by her side and protecting her from Leonardo.

Another of Sheila's cries sounded, I was not able to block Leonardo's wolf attack, his teeth digging into

my wolf.

And that's when it happened, another of Sheila's cries echoed within the air, stronger than before,

traveling through my heart. Sheila.

Her scream forced everyone to freeze. My wolf staggered back in shock, as Sheila shifted before our

eyes into the most beautiful wolf I had ever laid my eyes on.

It was as if the world had stopped moving, as I stared at Sheila's wolf. It was a breathtaking snow-white

wolf with glossy furs. By the goddess, she was beautiful

Fuck.
