The Wolf King's Luna

Chapter 59 RUMINANTS

THE COLLECTOR

“Well; aren't you a beautiful Wolf?” I asked with a knowing smirk.

This should be a wolf from Vance's pack.

I wanted to have a conversation with him when he jumped on me, claws and all

“Hahaha,” I was laughing hard.

These people never learn

I thought as I caught him by the throat mid-air, throwing him against the rocky ground.

“Who are you?” I asked disgusted and angry.

He groans in response to my question.

I kick him as he groans more

“WHO ARE YOU?”

He made to reply but coughed out blood.

“Why do you think you could defeat me?” I snarled, squatting to his level. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

He groaned, spat out blood, and struggled to sit erect.

“You wanna sit?”

He nodded

“Alright then…” lifting him to a sitting position.

“Are you comfortable?”

He gave me a death stare that made me laugh

“You think you are fierce?” I was laughing now.

Wolfs All of ‘em are the same. Always act like they can do this.

“Now young pup…” I began as he snarled at the mention of “pup”

“Ohhhh…!” I gave a mock apology “Did I hurt your feelings - pup?”

He made to talk again and spat out more blood.

“If I were you, I'd listen. There are a lot of questions I wanna ask and you’d need all your strength to reply to me” I paused to look at him.

“I won't like it very much if I ask you a question and you don't reply,” I said my brows furrowed in a frown.

“Do you understand?”

Silence.

“DO YOU UNDERSTAND?” I growled and he nodded “Good boy,” I said scratching his fur.

“Who are you?” I began

He was quiet like he was deciding if to say or not

“Lucas” he answered cautiously

“Lucas” I repeated, nodding my head in affirmation

“What pack are you from?” I was peering down at him, watching him closely.

He groans “Skylight” and spits out blood

“Vance?”

He nodded

“Vance Sky?” I repeated to be sure

“Yes”

“What's your position?”

He was quiet with a look that didn't tell much and after a short while “Nothing. No position”

“Hmmm…” I was standing now.

His Wolf looks strong and beautiful. This isn't the wolf of someone who isn't in any position in Vance’s pack.

“Can you turn?” I asked disappearing

“Huh?” he turned to look at me and winced in pain.

If I did not know this Wolf, I might know the human body.

“Turn!” I commanded.

“Where are you?” he tried to get on his feet, letting out a small grating sound.

“I said turn into your human form”

“What is that supposed to change?” he asked painfully, getting on his feet

“I do the asking…” I roared.

“I know!” he roared back.

Wow! Fierce, fierce!

“Where the hell are you by the way?” he asked, trying to steady his feet.

Why do I feel like this wolf is playing mind games with me? I was running out of patience.

If I can't make use of this, I'd have to make him disappear.

“Okay…time up” giving him a blow before appearing again.

“Haaaa!!!” he let out a loud howl and fell with a thud.

“You do not look like you’d be useful to me” I gave him another blow. I was about to touch him and skin him when a wolf leaped on me, biting me deep with a loud howl.

This is unexpected.

I disappeared.

He who runs today lives to fight another day.

LUCAS

The collector!!! My heart froze.

“This is the collector,” my inner Wolf said, panting in fear

I know. I know.

One minute I was walking, the next I was flying in mid-air.

“Ouch!!!” I grated in pain as I fell with a thud to the rocky ground. It felt like all the bones in my body broke. My skin was reacting terribly, revolting against my bones and body.

This has got to be the height of pain anyone could be in.

I thought I was dead when I heard him laughing.

“What are we going to do?” my inner Wolf was trembling with fear.

“I don't know” I couldn't think. My brain has shut out due to the pain I was feeling.

“You don't know?” he growls impatiently.

“If you keep growling, I won't be able to think” I snapped.

“I asked you not to jump” he snapped back. “If you had just listened”

“You did not say it fast” I grumbled at my foolishness

“I didn't what?” it started to laugh “It's how you feel like you could take on anyone”

“I could”

“You could? Take the collector then” he mocked.

“Keep mocking and our skin will be hanging on a stake in this godforsaken forest” I warned

He whined and sat

“We need to get to Faye’s Wolf” he suggested.

“We can?” I asked hopefully and in fright.

“Of Course we can, you just need to agree”

“No, please” The thought of Faye meeting the collector sent terrors down my spine making me shiver in fear.

I could take the collector dealing with me but I won't be able to live with myself or my spirit of Faye gets skinned and cause of me.

No, please. No Faye.

“She’s tougher than you think she is” he insisted

No!

I wasn't having this discussion with him.

“If we are lucky, she could come with her friend”

Mel?

“Yes, Mel”

That's risky. I thought. She is Alpha Damon’s sister of the Blackwater. What if something happens to her and she dies in a bid to save me, one of Alpha Vance of the Skylight pack members? Don't you think there would be War?

There was a short pause that probably looked like he was thinking

“Nothing of that can happen. It won't”

You don't know that

“I do.” he replied matter of certainty “Mellisa is one of the greatest warriors of her pack. These people are smarter than you think, Lucas.”

I was already shaking my head in disapproval.

No.

“Your ego isn't going to help.” it started. “You need help”

I shook my head

“I do not want to die, Lucas. We need help!”

I was struggling to stand when I felt a heavy blow to my ribs and another to my chest

Alright. Alright, inform her Wolf.
