34. Malice Or Sorrow.
I had a REALLY bad couple of days and I don't feel emotionally well and it taking a toll on me.
Please Enjoy.
Loki shot up ramrod straight gasping for air his nail creating scratch marks around is neck where he had grabbed.
He toppled out of the bed and hit the ground hard, knocking what little breath he had right from his lungs. Thinking fast he jerked his leg forward where it hit the bed post with a resounding 'bang' waking the sleeping Natalie.
"Loki?" She yawned before taking in his convulsions and blue lips. "Oh god Loki!"
Natalie got up and rushed to the door and started screaming for help, tears straining her voice. She hoped they got to him in time.
A piercing scream left Loki's body as pain ripped at his side, there was no visible damage but Loki felt like his muscles were ripping and leaving the bone.
Air was knocked back into his form when a heavy hand pounded on his back, the rush was so sudden he started to coatced.
"Breathe baby, in and out, in and out" Natalie instructed graping his face softly in her hands.
Loki marveled at the unmarked skin that held his face so tenderly, Kris had once done the same but this felt better even without the mates warmth.
A thought struck Loki in a rush and he bound to his feet exclaiming his deduction, "it's Kris, somethings happened to her!"
"Just figure that out fuckwit?" Vlader snarled from behind him.
Vlader had been the one who helped him regain his breath, though he probably enjoyed punching the air back into him more then saving his life.
"What's your problem?" Loki foolishly asked.
"You wanna know what my problem is? You wanna fucking know what my problem is you dumbass!" Vlader didn't give him time to answer choosing to continue his heated rant, "your my bloody problem! I spend weeks training our troops to defend themself in the coming war and when I get back I find out that you, you little pipsqueak! Have been cheating on the fucking Queen of the Wolves! You are no king, you are nothing! That woman loved you! Cared about you! Worried about you! And you throw it back in her face!"
"She's a freak!" Loki yelled, "I have tried and tried but I can't do it anymore! I care for her too, I always will but I don't want her as my mate, ahhh!" Loki suddenly fell to the ground his legs unable to hold his weight, pain piercing his body all over again.
"She's in so much pain" Angeles whispered, clinging to Vlader's shoulders her face tucked into neck.
"I know baby I know" Vlader whispered to her, before say aloud "we're going to our room, you had better fix this when Kris gets back. Oh and word of warning if Kris dies I'll kill you slowly no matter if you think you are the king" Vlader snarled at the still withering form in the floor.

Kris cracked open her eyes and took in her surroundings, she was still at the lake cover in blood.
She felt incredibly weak from the blood lost, and her body shook from the intensity of the burning aches that came from her wounds.
Most on her wounds had healed but the pain wouldn't be leaving quickly.
She rolled over to crawl onto al fours in an attempt to stand, a fierce pain clamed up her form. With deep breathing, determination and a strong thresholds for pain she stood. Even step was taxing but she didn't stop, she wouldn't be weak. Kris was a proud person and wouldn't let her running away be the last anyone saw her, no she would be the one remembered either dying in war or being that last one standing.
"Stop it! Stop it right now! Your stronger than this! We are not weak!" Kris whisper-shouted to herself.
With steel determination she smooth her face, stood straight with her head held high, her aura shone strength and her presence demanded respect.
Her seeing eye took in every detail of her surroundings, commit it all to memory, careful to not overlook anything.
Kris's lips tighter into a flat line and she begun to march forward, she didn't know if it was the right way but at that moment she couldn't care, she would reach a town soon and be back to IceGreen as soon as possible.
No more running and hiding, no more being a coward.

"I had a visitor," Captain Ace informed the other three captains watching him cynical gazes but he refused to back down.
"And why do we care? Why did this visitor warrant all of us down here?" Alistair asked gesturing to, Andy and Zeke, the two other captains.
Alistair was by far the eldest of their kind still alive but held nothing be regal appeal, he had black hair and blue eyes, his body was graced with more muscle then most humans could hope to have.
Andy and Zeke were brothers, they were about a decade older than himself. They both had brown hair and fierce green eyes that held distaste for him, but that was a factor he had grown used to.
After most of his specie hated him, but had gotten over that many years ago.
"I'm sure you all are aware of the coming war? Well I got a visitor of the queen of the wolves, Queen Kris-"
"This still doesn't explain why we have to be here, get to the point!" Andy and Zeke growled together.
"I was getting there calm yourselves, as I was saying Queen Kris was aboard my ship and I smelt the most of interesting scent on her.
"Have you all noticed that we are finding less and less mer-people?" with their nods he went on, "Its because they have gone to IceGreen to help fight this war!" he finally told them.
"What!" Alistair half growled half shouted, "Why the bloody hell would they do that?"
"Are you sure, I don't want to go exposing our specie to the other OtherWorlders without concrete evidence" Zeke voiced.
"Yes i called in a favour and my sources say that Princess Rachel is getting cose with some higher up"
"That still doesn't explain why they have decided to help, they are indifferent to any other creatures suffering" Alistair spoke seemingly to himself.
"That's why I propose that we all investigate under the illusion that we have come to aid them from the sea front." Captain Ace pushed.
"How do we know your sources are speaking truths?" Andy chimed in, add, "Mutt" as an insult.
"Will you all get over the fact I have werewolf blood in me, I am a Sealins as much as you all!" Acr shouted angered at their years off snide remarks, it was the very reason his kind hated him, "I didn't choose my parentage!"
The other Sealins were in shock not once in almost three decades had Ace ever told anyone off, he was calm and collect most times.
"We are all Sealins, men. We as Sealins protect the oceans, we are the silent protectors and I am one like you three, whether you like it or not". Ace took a calming breath before adding, "are you going to follow only will my ship be sailing alone?"
"Aye, we'll follow".

"Attention everyone!" Loki shouted trying to gain control of the thousands of OtherWorlders present, "calm down" he tried again.
Once the news had gotten out about Loki cheating on Kris, everyone was making it their mission to completely ignore him, Vlader had been proud of their loyalty towards Kris.
"Oii!" Vlader yelled, "Everybody find a place to sit and shut the fuck up" he commanded the crowd, to which they acommplied.
"As you all know the war is coming in a matter of days, you have all trained to hard, all fought for your right to live! I am so proud of you. We are OtherWorlders, and that is something to be proud off," Vlader spoke to the people, "this last month ever specie has come together to stand as one, and I got one am so proud of each and every one of you-"
"As am I" added Kris who was walking from the forest, still cover in blood and wound though her cloak covered most wounds.
It was a startling picture, the black and red seem to be at war with each over, who would cover more of her body. The DarkOnes blood was in the lead but not by much, as Kris had reopened one of her wounds which was still bleeding heavily.
Gasps ripped through the crowd at her arrival, all shocked to see her in such a state.
"Kris are you alright?" Vlader asked concern dripping from his tone.
"Fine my friend, fine. Thank you for starting I'll continue"
Vlader stepped back and let Kris take centre stage.
"As Vlader was say you all should be proud of yourselves, today is a day of peace, the calm before the storm if you will, this day will be the last peaceful day before he buckle down and get ready to fight the war. Everybody is dismissed, enjoy you day."
The second everybody had left the field Kris's knees gave way and she went down.
"Kris!" Vlader and Angeles screamed together scrambling to her fallen form. "Are you alright- stupid question, help me get her to the infirmary" Vlader instructed.
With Vlader on her right and Angeles on her right the pull a limp Kris into the castle leaving a trail of blood in their wake.

"Can't I do this tomorrow!" the alpha whined against his father's grip on his collar.
"No you stubborn boy! You own that beautiful girl an apology, so keep them there legs moving, ya' hear?"
"Yes sir" the alpha grumbled dragging his feet along sulkingly.
"Get in there you baby!" Kris hear a voice command from outside her office.
Kris had moved inti the small chambers that were connected to her office the second she had regained consciousness dismissing the doctors warnings, she was stitched up what more could they do?
"I don't want to!" another voice argued back.
"Stop acting like a baby you idiot and get in there now! Your an Alpha not some pup, now do as I say!"
"But-"
"If you wanna take to be get your fucking ass in here now, your giving me a bloody migraine!" Kris shouted than winced at her own loud voice, groaning.
The alpha boy final grasped some courage and threw open the double doors, and he marched in the darkened room.
Kris was well aware that her visitor couldn't sew her but she could see him, she couldn't tolerate light at the moment.
"Shut the door, take a seat and state your business" Kris commanded.
"Yes, yes of course"
Once he had down as Kris had told him to, he sat in silence staring into the dark where he could hear her heartbeat.
"Spit it out I don't have all day!" Kris snarled.
"Do you know who I am?" the alpha suddenly asked.
"If I answer it's going to be something incredibly rude and since I don't remember you I'll keep it to myself for now."
Kris was mystified by the alpha boys' scent, she knew it but couldn't quite remember where and trying to hurt.
"I am Kyo Tiger, Alpha of the Forest pack and I am... I am... I am your first mate" he finally announced.
Kris head tilted to the side as she took in his grown appearance, his blond hair, blue eyes and muscular and tall. Just like every other male werewolf, so perfect.
Being surround by so many beautiful creature daily made it easy to stop the person's faults. Kyo had a slight limp and his ears looked to big for his head, his eyes were a little too close together.
He wasn't perfect, but to a human he would probably be the handsomest man they have ever seen.
Strangely Kris felt no correction to him and she couldn't have been more grateful, she couldn't handle another man her life especially not a man that had caused her so much pain when she had been young.
"I am not mating you" Kris said point blank figuring that what he was here for.
"Yuck!" Kyo said loud before backtracking, "no no no that came out wrong you beautiful and I was a foolish child but I am happily mated with a child," he told her.
"Than why did you come here?" Kris inquired confused.
"I came here because I wanted to apologize to you. As I said before I was a foolish child that was scared of others criticism. I was so scared of what everybody else would think and for years after I beat myself up about it. It wasn't til I was sixteen when I realized why I had truly rejected you that day. I am happy and I have a family, we even if Lady Luna had put us together our mating would have never survived"
"Why?" Kris asked she didn't care for him at all she was merely curious.
"If you would allow I want to show you my family, easy to show you then tell you"
They sat in silence while Kris made up her mind, she had nothing to lose and she would be exercising her legs, hours sitting down weren't pleasant.
"Alright"
Kris stood and whipped her cloak over her body, letting Kyo take the lead.
"I'm happy your didn't hurt me, when I first told you who I was," Kyo said trying to start a conversation as walked.
"I don't feel a thing foe you, so why waste my energy?" Kris said cold not caring for small tall.
"Not talkative, got it" Kyo said under his breath.
Silently they left the castle and made their way over to the wolves domain, soon they arrived at a three story mansion, a sign hung from above the front door with the words;
Forest Pack House.
Alpha; Kyo Tiger
A/Mate; Ashley Time
"How long has Ashley been your mate?" Kris asked when they reached the threshold.
"Since I was eighteen, we could have been mated when I was seventeen but I was weak and refused to tell my pack" he told her.
"Either you have so serious confidant issue or you Ashley isn't going to be what I imagined.
"No Ashley will definitely give you a shock" Kyo said to himself.
A child's laughter ripped through the air and by the look on Kyo's face it had to be his kid.
"Daddy's home!" Kyo shouted out.
The laughter cut off before the sound on small feet made for where they were currently situated.
A blur of raven ran straight into Kyo's legs, it was a small girl, though she didn't look like Kyo at all, Kris supposed that she took after her mother.
"Ashley babe! Will you come out here for a sec" Kyo called.
What Kris had been expecting had been a small raven haired woman that was small and petite, what she small was a complete shock.
A tall muscular guy exited the lounge-room, he was dressed in black slacks anda. crisp white t-shirt. The guy's raven hair was hanging just passed his ears and his green eyes were taking her in just the same.
The raven haired man walked up ti Kyo and kissed him firmly on the lips.
"Hello," he turned to her after, "I'm Ashley pleased to meet you" he said holding out his hand towards Kris.
"Hello Ashley I'm glad Kyo is happy with you" she told him sincerely grasping his forearm instead on his hand in a show of acceptance and alliance.
Kyo heave a sigh of relief, he had been worried of her reaction.
Ashley was clearly shocked she had down that but never the leas took hold of her small forearm.
Kris was really happy that Kyo was happy, she let go of the hate and resentment she had held for Kyo, this was what he was destined for, not her.
"Who are you?" a childlike voiced domained to know.
Kris let go of Ashley's arm and looked downto where the girl stood with her hands on her hips.
With a full vision of the child she could tell that apart from the raven hair she looked nothing like Ashley either.
"I'm Kris a friend of your daddy's and you are?"
"I'm Kristy, I'm named after Daddy's girl mate," Kristy told her proudly. "she the queen of the wolves!"
Despite her aching body Kris crouched down so she was leveled with Kristy.
"You wanna know something Kristy?" Kris asked making her voice light.
"Sure!" Kristy shouted excited.
"I'm the queen of the wolves" she told her.
"Queen of the wolves?" she looked unsure. A confused looked crossed her face til it light up again. "If your the queen of wolves and your names Kris that means your who I'm named after"
With a shriek of happiness Kristy launched herself at Kris wrapping her arms around her neck, her unexpected weight caused them to land on the floor, Kris on the bottom and Kristy lying onto of her.
A warm feeling entered her chest, and a laugh escape her throat, and for the first time in almost two decades it wasn't filled with either
"Malice Or Sorrow."
