The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna (RYN)

RYN

I tried to run at full speed but I was suddenly yanked back by my hair. Crashing to the floor, I cried out as my back hit the ground and the pain in my stomach magnified. Rolling on my side, I tried to endure the pain and rise to my feet and I had just gotten to my knees when someone kicked me in the stomach. In that instant, my entire body shuddered and I fell to the ground, coughing out blood. "Where do you think you're running to, B****h?" I heard Konan say and the next thing I knew, I was drawn up by my hair to stand on my knees.

My body went numb and I barely felt pain anymore. I was simply in a spinning world, hardly aware of what was going on. My wolf stirred weakly, trying to come to the surface. She failed and yet she tried again. Someone slapped me, hard, and suddenly, the world came into focus. Konan's face came into view. "Did you hear what I said?" He queried. "Hear what?" I answered weakly.

His grip tightened on my scalp, sending shoots of pain stabbing at my scalp. "I said, whatever you do tomorrow, you better keep a low profile. Don't embarrass me or the boys! You hear me?! Everyone is going to be present tomorrow and they don't need to see a girl making all the other boys look bad! You got that b****h?!" I wished I could be I could be stubborn, I wished my trying wolf could come to the surface and rescue me because at this point, I had no idea if Theon was coming for me. "I hear you." I whispered, feeling shame as he pushed my head, releasing me. "You better do." Konan han said, lowering himself to his haunches to be on eye-level with me while his friends stood behind me. "Failure to obey, and I swear to the gods, I will gut you." He threatened. "I have friends in the Elite Force and even in high places so even if you thinker think you've graduated and you've made it, they'll be waiting to cut you down and make your death look like a freak accident. Understood?!" I kept mute and immediately, someone stomped hard on my ankle.

I cried out in pain, and Konan hit me again, silencing my screams. I fell to the ground, seeing dark spots cloud the sides of my vision. I didn't want to lose consciousness, so I held on to my pendant - anything to keep me awake. Tears rushed to my eyes as I felt my wolf, trying over and over again to come out and save me. "Raise her up!" I heard Konan order and I was yanked roughly to a standing position. I panted heavily, wondering what comes next. I contemplated.screaming again but considering how the security men acted the last time, I thought better of it. Besides, I could feel blood lodge in in my throat, spilling into my mouth.

I can't scream.

Konan's eyes fell to my pendant, which was the only necklace out of my top.

"What's this?" He said and before I could react, he reached for the pendant and despite closing my hand around it, he pried my fingers off and yanked it off my neck.

"No!" I yelled. "Give it back!"

And as I tried to take it back, his two friends held my arms on both sides, keeping me from taking back my pendant.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Konan smirked looking at it. "I see this means a lot to you." He said, "Behave tomorrow and you'll get it back."

He said pocketing it and all of a sudden, the memory of my father wearing it around my neck, promising it was a symbol of their love for me played in my mind. Was I going to let someone like Konan take the single most precious memory that I

With that realization, rage was birthed. I felt anger quake within my bones, searing my skin with heat, scaling through every atom and nerve and tendon in my body. It was anger like the olden days. Rage like no other that had kids running from me. Rage that had me flipping out and almost decapitating my childhood best friend. Rage that put Howard in a fucking coma. "Give it back." I said quietly as I felt my wolf try one last time and surge from deep within.

Konan's smug look faltered as he watched me warily.

"Give it back!" I yelled, yanking my arm from one of the boys and turning to the other who still held my other arm. Without hesitating, I kicked his groin and he doubled over, releasing me. The other boy rushed to me, his hand raised to strike and I held it in the air. He looked at me, his face twisted in fear, but before he could react, I pulled his head close, and closed my teeth around his ear. I kept eye contact with Konan as I bit his friend's ear off and when his screams echoed in the woods, I backhanded his face, shutting him up. Now, it was time to face Konan.

I spat out his friend's flesh from my mouth as I approached and he took a step back, watching me with a confused and wary look.

"What the f***k are you?" He asked dumbfounded and in a flash, I reached him. Konan was prepared. He had a gun drawn, pointed right at my face.

"One wrong move and I'll f***ng blow your head off! My father will take care of your body and no one will trace your disappearance. Underst-"

I was done hearing shit!

I gripped his wrist, and a shot fired. Within a second, I moved to the side, and time seemed to stop as I watched the bullet pass right before my eyes. Time moved again, and I maneuvered the gun out of his hand before turning and elbowing his ribs and then his face. Konan pushed I me forward and I fell to my knees and when I turned, Konan had channeled his wolf.

His eyes glowed orange and right before my eyes, his body grew to a larger lycan form, tearing through his clothes and ripping it to shreds. I got on my feet, feeling my spine itch with the urge to shift as I thought of what to do. When he fully transformed, he growled at me and in return, a growl ripped from my throat at him.

It almost seemed as if it weren't me, but my wolf. My bones began to throb and quake and I felt like something was about to happen. Then I paused, my heart racing rapidly as I looked at Konan.

My heart dropped when I realized he didn't look like a normal lycan.

He looked very much like a mutant.
