THIRD PERSON POV

The Beast knew exactly where the demon was. His eyes were wide and feral as he glared at the figure of the woman he'd grown to despise.

The woman the voices in his head taunted him with. The woman that filled his head with the wildest thoughts, that drove him to the brink of insanity.

With a low growl the body turned around, almost expectantly. The crib that stood beside it and the baby that was silently laying in it long forgotten as the demon stalked closer towards the wolf.

"For some reason. I've been expecting you" The demon stated huskily, its voice so husky and deep causing the wolf's ears to slightly twitch.

The Beast growled, and this time a lot loudly making the demon chuckle hoarsely - its eyes burning with a new hunger... a new craving.

"It's funny though. I didn't think it'd end like this for the worlds strongest and most ruthless Alpha" the demon chuckled after its statement.

Its words taunting, making the Beast step forward threateningly.

"But I don't want this to end quick. I prefer a little chase" and with that, the demon ran out of the room at the speed of light making the Beast's fur slightly fly due to the small breeze.

The wolf glared at the crib before him and eyed the sleeping child through the little holes in the crib.

For some reason the wolf felt relieved and much calmer at the sight of a small head coated in thick dark hair.

But nothing was able to calm the burning fire nor quieten the screaming voices in its head.

So he turned around and ran. Ran to the person that he wanted to see dead.

"Stay together now. I understand the feeling that is coursing through your bloodstreams right now. We all are feeling an urge to go kill the demon, but fight it. Fight it." Axel stated through mind link as all the wolves stopped behind his wolf's towering body.

His warriors grunted understandingly.

The smell of death and decay lingered all around the castle, there was blood on the grass and the feeling of darkness consumed all of them in a second making them bare their teeth.

They sensed an unearthly presence get closer and closer - yet they all still stood there...

Waiting and waiting.

The sky darkened up and the wind getting stronger and louder - the trees all swaying and the branches hitting one another almost rhythmically.

As the warriors and the prince waited with their thick fur swaying with the breeze, the sound of footsteps alerted them.

"Thats odd..." Axel stated through mind link before his wolf turned around completely to face the woods - where the sound was coming from.

The warriors turned around in a second and bent their knees while growling lowly.

"Don't do anything un-" before Axel could continue four familiar wolves jumped right in front of them with expressions similar to theirs.

Axel quickly shifted - not caring that his bare body was in full display before angrily stomping towards the four wolves.

"What in the hell are you doing here?!" He asked angrily - his authority shaking the ground they all stood on.

One of the wolves shifted to reveal Elijah - whom had a frown on his face and furrowed brows.

"We had to come. We had to." He stated lowly, looking completely defeated as he walked closer towards Axel.

"No! You don't leave a pack behind to come to another one! You are the only chance your pack had at surviving! You and Dustins idiotic sister. What did you think you'd do here?! You pups will only get in the way and we can't afford that!" Axel spat out in complete rage while glaring at all of the wolves.

"We had to be here! We had to."

"Are you trying to convince me or yourself Elijah? You runts don't belong here.... you don't belong here!" Axel claimed, his voice breaking mid-sentence showing how scared he really was.

"I am not seeking your approval. I am here for my best friend... m-my sister-" Axel growled at Elijah making him flinch but he didn't stand down.

"She is not your sister! Hell, she isn't even your friend! I don't ever want to hear you BloodLine runts refer to her as such!" Axel stated while growling, his pupils darkening with the presence of his angered wolf.

Elijah lowered his head slightly in respect but before he could say anything the sound of thundering paws running close by made them all swiftly turn around to face the castle.

Axel's gaze first found Celine's body making his eyes narrow into a glare - the demons eyes glaring right back.

"Oh what a wonderful surprise" the demon stated while chuckling making every wolf growl before bending one knee forward - ready to attack.

"Stand down. You heard me - stand down." Axel whispered - his authority dripping off of his voice making every wolf unwillingly step back once.

The demon noticed this and chuckled in amusement - the sight of it hurt Axel's eyes; he couldn't believe this was his sisters possessed body.

"I have been expecting you Prince Axel. But if I may add, I kind of expected more of a fight. I mean that other runt came fully determined"

Axel's brows furrowed in confusion while Elijah watched the scene unfold before him with slightly wide eyes.

"What other runt?" Axel grit out in confusion - he didn't want to hear the name of the person he knew made it here before them.

"Here he comes"

And as if on cue the Beast came running through the castle doors with his snout held up high, his ears perked up and his tail swaying side to side.

A loud howl echoed through the woods and at that same second Marina shifted and took a large shirt she had tied around her ankle and carelessly threw it on.

"You have got to be kidding me." She growled out before taking a step forward to glare at the large wolf that glared directly at the demon whom watched them all in complete amusement.

"Pathetic wolves. But you all came for a fight. So bring it on"
