Dakeyras watched as the wolves felt uneasy and grew silent. Dakeyras felt proud. Not knowing why, but he did. He protected her, so that must be the reason why he's sou proud. Suddenly she ran forward threw herself on the ground whimpering, belly exposed. Dakeyras stood in shock. The scene was obviously delightful for the wolves. 'Why would you do that? There is no need for it. We were not in danger.' His thoughts tried to reason with this. Then it hit him. One of those two had to be her mate. Why in the world would she submit to him otherwise. 'You mmoron. Did you actually think she was for you. She enchanted you to get you here. ' He thought to himself. A strong feeling of danger rose within him. He hunched down, ready to fight for his life. In this moment he saw everything as something that wants to kill him. The betrayal stung him, and the pain in the spine returned. This was not good, he couldn't fight in this state. Slowly he backed away into the forest, once he decided the distance was enough he turned around and trotted away. 'Well at least now I got time to feel sorry for myself again'. He thought to himself laughing.

As soon as Dakeyras backed away, Kiara was back on her feet. The two guards were really feeling full of themselves now. They hadn't done a thing and he'd run away like a scared little pup. This caused Kiara to snap at them before she ran as quickly as she could after the trail he'd left. It confused her to no end why he'd left. What had she done wrong? Had he maybe finally seen the danger? Did he not want to run anymore?
"You need to be quiet, Kiara. A man doesn't want to hear you talk. He wants to see you submit." Her mothers voice echoed in her head. Was that it? Had he left because she'd submitted to another male? Kiara didn't know, but it didn't matter anyways. The longer he was away, the more painful that emptiness became. Please, let him forgive me, she thought to herself.
When she did finally reach him again, Kiara stood still for a moment. Even now she was unsure what she should do. Like the pups, she launched herself in front of him and dropped to the ground. This time, she showed him her neck, hoping that that was the reason he left. She could only show him that there was no mark and that she had been trying to stop any fights that would have happened. Slowly, she looked up and let a small whimper. "Don't leave me alone," it said.

After a while he stopped, his pain still there. Dakeyras though about what happened, not just the quarrel in the woods the whole day. He spent most days alone yet for some reason this day was different. From the moment he stepped into the library to even now, his mind was obsessed with that girl. To make things even more interesting he actually remembered her name, something he never did. The only names he remembers are of his lost mate, his brother and the old male that saved his skin. Dakeyras decided that he will stay for a while longer here. Mostly because of Kiara. He spent some time with her and already he was attached to her. ?well it seems you’re growing lonely and weak’ He said to himself with a smile. The pain began to ease away and he heard a wolf coming after him. At first he thought it was someone who was sent to hunt him down. He quickly dismissed the idea, since his pain was easing it could only mean that Kiara was coming.
As she came she threw himself in front of him and whimpered. The scene reminded him of a memory from his birth pack. When the cubs messed something up and they threw themselves on their back pleading for forgiveness from their mad parents. Though that was then and those were cubs. This time they were both matured and old enough to know what their deeds may cause and to accept the consequences. Suddenly ager rose with in him. He lowered his head and growled and her. His teeth showing, His broken fang clearly seen. He felt betrayed and lost. The sudden urge to bite her and hold her for the neck burst within him. To keep the animal side within him he turned into his human form, covering his neck with his arm. “Get up, what do you want?” he snapped out the words, trying to contain the anger. He walked a few feet away and from under the tree he pulled a small backpack. Out of it he took his coat and scarf, putting them on he turned back to her. He will give her only one chance to explain herself. If she failed to get him to calm down, he would leave south.

Despite the ferocity of the snarl he sent her way, Kiara found that she was not afraid. It was only when he began to get his things that she felt anything close to fear. When she shifted, she found herself kneeling in front of him which was something he obviously didn’t like. Slowly, carefully, she stood. It didn’t really matter, either way he towered over her. However, on her two feet, the scar of her youth could be seen: a jagged, silvery line that stretched the length of her right side, hip to rib cage. The most prominent features at that¬¬ moment, though, were her watery gray eyes.
It was strange, that she should feel like crying. Why was that? She didn’t feel sad. Did she? Kiara shook her head trying to clear it of unnecessary thoughts. It took everything she had to speak her mind this time. “They were going to attack you, you know that right? How can I choose between my pack and a stranger? You would have killed them,” here she paused, her voice breaking. “These people raised me. I didn’t mean to take you so close… I wasn’t thinking.”
Again, she paused, not sure if she should continue. Did he actually want to know what she was thinking? Or was he only pretending the whole time? Biting her lip softly, she took her chance. “Please don’t go. Every time you leave, I feel like…” her hand found its way to her chest, over her heart. “It hurts. I don’t know why, but it feels like it’s killing me.”
He heard as she stood up. His rage still filed his whole body. ‘Why are you still here? Why do you care if something happens to me, what is it to you?’ he thought as he searched through his backpack. “They were going to attack you, you know that right? How can I choose between my pack and a stranger? You would have killed them,” He could hear as her voice began to brake, and his anger with it.. “These people raised me. I didn’t mean to take you so close… I wasn’t thinking.” The whole idea of them killing him was more appealing, and did he really look so horrible that she would automatically think him of a winner. Though his anger was smaller than before, he could hardly control the animal from bursting within him. As he finally found what he was looking for he tightly squeezed it in his hands, realising some steam. . “Please don’t go. Every time you leave, I feel like… It hurts. I don’t know why, but it feels like it’s killing me.” These words enraged him even more. How could one submit to another if he feels such a way to a third. His sceptic mind began to work its carnage in his head. ‘She’s saying this to lure you back in, next time you’ll follow her blindly, they’ll kill you or trick you to join as an omega.’ His instincts warned him. He had enough of all this, of everything. He slowly stood up, turning around he saw her staring at him, water in her eyes. Coldly he threw her his kilt and his brown sweater. “if you’re planning on staying human put this on, or would you prefer to stay butt naked. Either way, you should go back to your pack. Your mate is probably worried, and you can tell your alpha that your mission failed and I’m not coming back.” After he said that, he turned around, picked up his backpack and started to walk away. He hoped she would join him, no he prayed she would.
Kiara looked down to the sweater, which was more than enough to cover her whole body should she so choose, and was considering putting it on when he said something about her mate. At first, she thought about staying quiet and letting him go, but that same pang from deep in her chest told her that was impossible. Besides, he wanted her to speak? Then she would speak. “Mate? What mate?” She yelled after him. “Don’t walk away from me!”
She started after him throwing the clothes at him along the way. “Do you see a mark on me? Does it look like I have a mate?” At this she stood there, arms out, and though it was embarrassing she had to make this point. If she didn’t, he could leave. “Why do you think my pack cares about you? Some stranger that no one knows? What could they possibly want with you?” This time she looked down as she spoke, shaking her head. “Don’t you understand? All I’ve ever been taught is to submit… it’s all I know how to do anymore. I can’t leave. If you go, I won’t follow you.”
He turned around. “Well though I admit that I can’t see any mark, what you did, confused me and I though one of those pups was your mate to be.” His anger disappeared as she stretched out. Though another feeling filed him. For he never saw such beauty in a human form before, and the only thing more beautiful was the same person in her wolf form. He jumped to her, with his hands he put her arms around him, and his around her. Again like before his mind was at ease. The one difference from before was that this time, his heart finally managed to open up a way to his mind. Not a way, a highway. He knew what she said was truth and that she didn’t lie. The sincerity in her voice and deeds managed to stung him, at the thought of how he reacted. His heart was now screaming at him for the idiot he was, and why it didn’t listen to his heart before. ‘You’ve been silent for too long my friend, I even forgot your sound’ Dakeyras said to his heart in his mind. ‘Submissive you say?’ A small grin formed on his face. “If you are so submissive, how come you don’t have a mate? With that beauty of yours someone must have tried to mate with you, no? Well either way we can’t have a young female without a mate.” As he whispered that into her ear he took a long breath, his nose deep in her hair. “We’ll fix that” Saying it he pushed her down and bit her on the inner part of her left thigh. Only after that he realised what had happened.
Like before, Kiara froze as soon as he touched her. Her mind couldn't wrap itself around everything that was going on. She had thought he would leave, especially after she yelled at him, but here he was... wait. What exactly did he just do? Mouth open and eyes wide, she stared at the mark on her thigh in horror. The worst part? It was already healing. Kiara softly touched the mark and let out a gasp of disbelief.
"I don't..." Why would her body accept a mark from a stranger? Nothing was making sense, and it was overwhelming her. Another awful though came to her a moment later. What would her mother say when she found out she had let someone who wasn't her true mate mark her! A stranger who didn't even belong to a pack! She turned her wide eyes up to him as she realized there was something more frightening than her mother. "You can't leave! You can't mark-" her voice broke on the word, still unable to believe it, "I still can't go with you..."
Dakeyras sat there for a moment. ‘What have I done’ How could he let this happen. Although his heart was telling him he did the right thing he knew he screwed up. Why would he mark some female he just met? There’s no way he will stop traveling for the sake of this girl. Even less start a pack or join one. ‘What have I done’ the thought ran through his mind again. He knew what this mark meant and what problems it brings. How would he explain this to her pack, or even to himself? This was just insane, and the worst thing was that she accepted the marking. ‘You senile old fool, you have gone too far this time. What in the unforgotten realm of bullets and carnage do you plan on doing now’ He yelled inside his head as he looked up into the sky.
Kiaras voice struck him like a rock, bringing him back to present. The fear was visible on her face, and in her voice. “I don’t know…. I really don’t know… id ask you to go with me, but I guess its out of the question. I didn’t even….” Dakeyras was confused and to make matters worse he didn’t even know how to explain this to her. But he would, or at least tell her the truth. “I don’t know. It’s just when I hugged you a sudden rush filled my head and the need to make you mine. I don’t know what’s going on, but for some reason I can’t even trust myself with you. My heart, my instincts and even my mind is betraying me.” Then it hit him, a way to solve this, or at least make it less terrible. Excitement clearly over run him as he thought about it. In a flash he held her by the shoulders and looked into her eyes. He will fix this the way he knows best. “I have an idea, what if… I challenge your father for you, or your alpha or anyone. Whoever I must challenge to gain you.” Dakeyras was so out of his thoughts that he didn’t even consider losing or dying. Again his heart yelled at him. ‘Get her to be yours or try living without me beating’
Her eyes widened even more, something she didn’t think was possible, at the thought of him fighting Luke or her father. Luke would probably kill him, despite Dakeyras size, because he was ruthless and took no mercy. He would see him as unworthy of anyone, that or he would laugh at the thought of fighting over Kiara. He, like most of the pack, thought she was simple minded even if she always listened and never spoke out of turn. And her father…
Kiara quickly shook her head. “You can’t… I love my family. If you hurt him… I…” Suddenly tears filled her eyes at the thought of her father dead. “How would that solve anything? Then I would just be even more alone than I already am! Fix this! Take it back!” Her hands flew to her mouth again and she closed her eyes trying to calm down. It was so strange to her, that she couldn’t speak to anyone in her pack but she could yell at this man. Granted, he had just made her his made without permission and now probably planned on leaving her here.
Dakeyras looked at the ground, his mind frantically trying to fix what he managed to mess up so gallantly. “What if you just come with me…. You said that at your pack no one really cared for you, but with me it would be different. I promise.” He looked at her as innocently as possible. He felt like a small child, who’s power would be taken away, and all he could do was to wait and plea for a miracle. He couldn’t leave her, yet he can’t join any pack either, or at least he promised himself he won’t. This was a hard decision, but if she couldn’t decide to leave the pack then he would join it, but he would try to avoid it till the very end. Finally he gave in. The idea of living without her was out of thought. He would either continue his path with her or settle down with her. Understanding her meaning in his life, he gave up on the idea of letting her go. Although he knew how much she meant to him, he would not admit it to her under any circumstances. He opened his mouth to try and calm her down “I love you way to much to be without you, so please come with me.” The words didn’t quite form as he wanted, but then again, today nothing did.
“Love me? I’m a stranger! You’re a stranger! And you bit me!” Her palms pressed against her eyes as she tried to get her thoughts under control. It was probably harder for her, only because she only had her brain to work with, her instincts and heart were mostly blocked off. Kiara was never sure what thoughts were correct and which weren’t. “I can’t… I can’t go with you. I told you that. How could I? What do you do? Run around fighting everyone you see?”
This time, she pulled away from him, once again touching that mark that said they were mated. This could not be happening to her. The gods really did have a sick sense of humor. Kiara would never be wishing for anything ever again. Submissive. She needed to be submissive. He didn’t like it when she was, right? Maybe then he would decide he didn’t want her and find some way to get rid of all of this. Alright, Kiara. Do what you do best. Moving so that she was kneeling, she tilted her head to the side and exposed her neck to this man she barely knew. “I need to go home…”
It was strange, that she should feel like crying. Why was that? She didn’t feel sad. Did she? Kiara shook her head trying to clear it of unnecessary thoughts. It took everything she had to speak her mind this time. “They were going to attack you, you know that right? How can I choose between my pack and a stranger?

Luke couldn’t believe his ears. Between what Jaii said and Sam he was ready to explode. “Shut up, Sam, this is between me and Jaii,” he snapped, not sure what else he could say to him. He didn’t want to wait until he was outside anymore, he was too outraged to wait. “Jaii, you talk big but you’ve never hurt anyone and I don’t believe you can.” His own words calmed him and he led the way outside, gesturing for Jaii to follow. He didn’t wait long, though. As soon as they were down the steps of the front porch he stripped completely, growling loudly. Rick followed, ready to jump in if necessary. It may be rules for a challenge like this to go one-on-one, but he wasn’t much for rules anyway.
As soon as his son was out the door he changed, black eyes staring at Jaii. Muscles smoothly moved beneath deep brown fur as he paced, waiting for the other male to change. Hackles raised on the back of his neck as he let out an angry bark, claws digging into the dirt beneath him.

Sam was ready to fight, and Luke's ignorant anger and slanderous command only made Sam want to jump, but the challenge at hand had already been decided, father and son were going to fight over Luke's stupidity and Jaii's morality. Sam couldn't stomach letting the three of them leave the hallway, because Sam knew Rick as well as anyone else and he would surely jump Jaii if he got the upper-hand on his father. The thought alone pierced Sam's own morality like an arrow and he threw himself into action. He picked Vera up to her feet and led her around the corner to Rhea, who he took the wrist of, and then led them both back down the hallway into a corner room and then through an exit door into the garage. He placed led them over to his 1990 Buick and guided Rhea into the passenger seat while instructing Vera into the driver's seat.
"Ok, keep the engine running, keep the garage door open, and if someone besides Jaii or I comes into sight, get out of here, ok." He spoke with a hurried, deep, but calm voice and then darted over to the garage door and pressed the lift's button to open it and then he darted around the front of the garage and into the front of the manor where Jaii, Luke, and Rick were present. He stood his ground opposite Rick on the other side of the shifted father and son, and he made sure to keep his demeanor non-aggressive. The only thing that could be worse then Rick getting involved, is causing Rick to get involved because someone else looked aggressive to him.
Sam's priority was to keep the challenge un-interrupted by outside forces, and to ensure all went according to law, but he knew even if the law was followed, he could live with Luke after this, he would still follow Jaii's command and his own gut and get them all away from the Manor. He pressed that to the back of his mind though while focusing on the fight about to unfold.
"Ok, keep the engine running, keep the garage door open, and if someone besides Jaii or I comes into sight, get out of here, ok." He spoke with a hurried, deep, but calm voice and then darted over to the garage door and pressed the lift's button to open it and then he darted around the front of the garage and into the front of the manor where Jaii, Luke, and Rick were present. He stood his ground opposite Rick on the other side of the shifted father and son, and he made sure to keep his demeanor non-aggressive. The only thing that could be worse then Rick getting involved, is causing Rick to get involved because someone else looked aggressive to him.

“Love me? I’m a stranger! You’re a stranger! And you bit me!” As she pressed the palm against her face, Dakeyras wanted to hold them. The moment was hard enough on him, and her reaction made it that much worse. He was trying to find a solution when she spoke again. “I can’t… I can’t go with you. I told you that. How could I? What do you do? Run around fighting everyone you see?” Though what she said was not entirely true, a hard cold pain still pierced him. Suddenly it hit him. For the first time in years he is actually actively thinking about how to solve this. He was taking it seriously and focusing his full attention to it. “I need to go home…” That was it. That was the plan, it was no other way… He has to go to her pack and somehow sort things with the pack members. He stood up. He pulled her up and held her in the air slightly for a moment, till he dropped her down, her facing away from him.. “ come then, lets go home.” He said as he pulled of his cloak and wrapped it around her. His scarf was only loosened a bit. Turning into the wolf, he crouched down, pushed his head and shoulders through between her legs and lifter himself up straight, then sprinted back to the pack.

A sharp bark pierced the air, waking Kennedy from her sleep. Her foggy eyes blinked, confused at their sudden arousal. Oh shit... I fell asleep. She was slouched in a chair on the back deck of the house, the sun now behind her instead of above her. A sleepy hand rose to her face, rubbing the tired away. Kennedy sat up, her shoulder popping as she did so. With an annoyed huff, she rubbed it.
Wait a minute.... something didn't feel right... There was tension in the air, more than usual. Something was wrong. Kennedy rose from her seat, stretching a moment to awaken her sleepy muscles. She then went in the back door of the house, but found no one. Then she heard it, the growling of her alpha coming from the front of the manor. Yep, he was pissed. But what now? She could sense that this time it was a different level of anger, one even deeper than the tension that usually hung in the air.
Making her way to the front of the house, she raised an eyebrow at the clothes scattered across the entry way. Well, this isn't good. Kennedy moved with caution to the door, where she looked out to see both the alpha and his son, both in full wolf form, glaring at each other with gazes that could kill. Kennedy sensed the urgency, and moved out to the front yard, where she saw Rick standing opposite of Jaii, next to Luke. A few feet away from herself stood Sam, also watching the event unfolding before them.
She knew what this was... it had finally happened. All of the abuse and torture, the crooked ways and broken rules. Jaii was fighting back. Kennedy moved closer to Sam, standing about a foot away now, "What the hell is going on?" She shot a glance at Rick, who seemed eager, before looking back to Sam.

Kiara furrowed her brow when he said home. Of course, she had a home, but she didn’t think he did, so where exactly did he think he was taking her? When she felt the cloak cover her, she was grateful, but still confused. It was only when he picked her up and started running towards her own pack that she understood. As they picked up speed, she found herself burrowing her hands in his fur just to hold on.
It was strange, to her, that this wasn’t the slightest bit weird. In her experience, interacting with a shifter when you were not in the same forms was just awkward and led to complicated thinking. It was as if the wolf and the human were two separate entities to her. However, this was different. As she wrapped her fingers in his fur, she felt something different. A sense of peace almost. This in itself caused that distressed feeling to come back. Mate. He’s my mate. Perhaps that’s why she felt this way, and as soon as it was fixed, she wouldn’t anymore.
Soon, they were back to the mansion, the guards letting them pass because she was with him. Kiara didn’t have much longer to dwell on her peaceful feeling because as soon as they were outside the house, he skidded to a stop. In front of them, were two large wolves obviously intent on fighting. Dakeyras probably had no idea who they were, but she did. She knew and that peaceful feeling shifted to one of dread. She whispered, so quietly that only he would be able to hear her, “No… This can’t be happening…”

As upset as Vera was about the situation with Jaii, leaving him seemed like the worst idea. “No, I can’t just leave him,” she argued, being completely unhelpful by looking back every few feet. “Jaii could die, I need to be there!” Despite her yelling the shifter ended up with Rhea in the driver seat, her mind attempting to focus on the task Sam had given her. “This pack is nuts,” she accused when it was just the two of them, her hands gripping the wheel. “Besides, how the heck am I supposed to wait here while I don’t even know what’s going on? And I’m not going home, father will just push me right back at Rick.” She paused, running what Jaii said over and over again in her mind. “If he survives, he should be pack alpha. Those are the rules. Is that something you would want?” she asked Rhea, turning to look at the girl with a small sigh.
****
As soon as his son was through the doorway Luke rushed forward and brutally attacked. His claws swiped downward as he snarled, a set of sharp, white teeth attempting to sink into Jaii’s neck. They quickly tumbled into a mass of fur and fangs as he knocked him into the grass, not holding back. That, ultimately, was Luke’s weakness. All offensive, and it showed as he didn’t try and pulled away from the fight to make his next move. The alpha kept attempting to use his muscle to get on top of Jaii and bite whatever piece of flesh was closest to him.

Vera ran her fingers over the steering wheel as she listened intently to Rhea. “Maybe this isn’t so bad, then. Luke will be alpha and the pack will be run better. And he can get me out of this engagement with Rick.” She liked the girl. Vera had barely spoken to anyone about the Beta and her relationship before, but here she was admitting things would be much better if the marriage was cancelled.
It was too quiet, too stressful to sit in silence while they waited for the fight to end. “So. You and that big guy, the one that brought us here. You together?”
**
Luke felt like he was winning until he felt a searing pain right above his heart. The wolf whimpered in pain but quickly retaliated with a bite to Jaii’s neck. His teeth didn’t sink terribly deep, and the wond he’d received not moments ago made him easy to push off. Blood seeped through his fur as he was pinned to the ground, his kicks and slashes turning offensive to defensive. He wanted to end it now, he always gained the upper hand against Jaii. Besides, even if Jaii was winning he would never give the final blow, right? Luke kicked back at Jaii’s lower stomach, hoping to tear at a tender area that would make him fall back. It was his last move, and if it didn’t work then he wasn’t sure what to do next…

Panic coursed through Luke as he felt the jaws of Jaii close around his thick neck. Before he could even think to beg for mercy a pain like no other came and his howl of agony became a choked, gurgled noise. His entire body fell limp against the bloody grass beneath them as he lived out his last moments, unable to make another sound. He didn’t even have the energy to shift, though his body would surely make the change for him once death had arrived.
“What the hell!” Rick yelled, tears in his eyes out of anger and grief. He hadn’t gotten involved because frankly, there hadn’t been enough warning. Besides, Jaii meant business and he feared for his own life. Even right now he was afraid of what the alpha’s son might do next. He could not be Beta under this shifter, he wouldn’t. He had to convince him to leave…
“You killed your own father! You’re insane!” he screamed, taking a single step forward and looking from Sam, some of the others that had gathered around, and back to Jaii. “Nobody here wants you as Alpha, Jaii, you’re clearly not stable!” There were a few murmurs of fear and agreement from the lesser pack members, ones who had gathered to see the fight but sent their children back to their rooms. “I’m taking charge of this pack. You’re banned from our territory, and anyone who doesn’t agree with that can leave with you! I won’t have you endangering our family, Jaii,” he said, pointing toward the long road that led to the gate. “I swear if you’re not gone within the next five minutes I’ll call Vera’s father,” he said, “see what he says about all this, you and her.” That threat surely made him lose Vera for good, but it was worth it. He was becoming Alpha of this pack, and that was all that mattered. He had power.
Rick ran to his brother’s body as it began it’s change, leaving a mangled male body that made the scene look even worse. “Get out of here, Jaii Talon. I swear if you’re not gone within the next five minutes me and the others will deal with you myself.” He looked at Sam, eyes narrowing. “What will you choose, hm? If you’re staying, get that healer out here now. Maybe…maybe he’s not gone. She should have been out here from the beginning, why did you send her away?” he screamed, sadness making him yell even louder.

Vera smiled, giving her a small nod. "You're pretty young to have already found your mate, but congratulations all the same. I get what you're saying...I wish I knew how Jaii was. All I know is he's alive. I guess that should be enough for now," she said, wishing they had a stronger bond. That wouldn't happen for a long time, once love and been poured into their relationship and she'd fulled given in to it.
"I can't just sit here much longer though, I'll tell you that much. If you're the healer, Jaii might need you. I have a feeling by the end of all this studying will be the last of our worries."

Kiara watched, eyes wide with fear as the two wolves battled it out. With each blow, she sunk further and further into the fur of the wolf beneath her, as if it would help her to disappear. It wasn't until she felt the bond between Alpha and pack sever, that she truly knew Luke was gone. Normally, she would be ecstatic, but the way it was happening... it was sad. People were dying over something that could have been handled civilly, and now they were trying to take Jaii's rightful place from him? It was wrong. It was just so wrong. Kiara watched as her parents agreed with Rick and felt her stomach plummet.
There was no way that she could speak up for Jaii. She just couldn't. Maybe she could yell and talk to Dakeyras, but he was different somehow. This was her pack, and she could never speak against them. All the same, she couldn't just sit here and watch this happening, but what was she supposed to do? Was she supposed to leave with Jaii? Leave not only her pack, but her parents. Unlike many of the shifters here, she'd grown up under Luke just as Jaii had. This was her home. How does one leave their home?
Her grip tightened in his fur, and she let out a quiet cry of loss. Either way, things would be changing. "I..." she started, knowing that no one would hear her. "I want to go too..." she laid her head down, knowing that no one would ever know except the stranger she met in her store today. No one besides him would be able to hear her words or know what her deepest wish was. Instead, she would be staying here because she couldn't speak louder, because she was unable to stand up and tell everyone how she really felt. Kiara was ashamed.

Sam curled his hands into fists, his fingers digging into his palms causing small droplets of blood to surface where his nails cut in, and his wrists popped as the tension from his arms and shoulders tightened to the greatest extent. The scene before him unfolded and the thought of it all scrambled his brain a moment. He was unaware another woman had come up to him until after a few minutes. His rage prevented him from seeing clearly, but her words seemed to drag him out of it.
"Oh.. yes, Kennedy.. I think that is your name. Jaii, and Luke, it is finally that time. Jaii and Rick's mate, well, they are mated now, as true mates. She is marked now and Luke went off and Jaii is finally fighting back." He explained while instinctively, and unknowingly, began trying to gesture he further back form the fight while he eyed them both, and then Rick. He gave her a few minutes before turning his head. "You don't plan of on staying, do you? Whether Luke dies or not, Jaii has to leave, Rhea, Jaii's mate, and myself included. Kennedy, staying would be silly, you know that right?" He asked her with a deep curiosity, but he turned to keep his eyes on the fight and watched as Jaii seemed to over-power his father with each move, but he suffered injuries nonetheless.
Several long moments passed as the fight carried on and Jaii finally ended the years of pain. A singular action to cease the tyranny of a Mad Alpha. Sam almost went to grab Jaii as he shifted, caught up in the moment, but he shook away Jaii's words. "Oh no, you aren't playing the Sole Hero left behind." He went over to him and helped him stand properly while turning to wave Kennedy. "Come on, come with us, you will be happier. I guarantee it." He then turned back, listening to Rick and his words. He slid Jaii over to lean against Kennedy for a moment. "Here, mind holding this for me?" He asked her rhetorically as Jaii shifted from one leg to the other and rested with her.
Sam stepped up to Rick, mere feet away, and he took a strong, defensive stance. "Listen here, you pup-of-a-man. You may have right to claim leadership as Beta, but you will never be a true Alpha. You couldn't run yourself out of a wet paper-bag, let alone run a Pack. You will surely destroy it yourself, if you don't start enough Clan wars to have someone else do you the honors. As for me, getting the healer, and staying, no. You can take your ego and your claim and shove up your furry lil'ass!" Sam then began to turn and took Jaii back from Kennedy and took off towards the garage.
"Jaii, come on, you got legs still, use them a little." He said jokingly as he tried to drag Jaii's mind away from the pain. "Do you think I would let you stay back there? I need you in the car, we need someone to be the air-bag, the ones in my car are broken." He added while rounding the garage's doorway with a naked, injured Jaii. He nodded to Vera to start the little Buick while assisting Jaii into the back seat.

Kennedy nodded as Sam explained, all the while the fight was still raging on before them. Kennedy looked at Sam, "Staying? After all that has happened? Hell no." She was surprised Rick hadn't attempted to intervene yet, give Luke an upper hand and some backup. And then, the tides began to turn. Jaii was dealing blows to his father, seemingly more powerful each hit. Kennedy held her breath for a split second, and then Jaii went for the neck.
And it was over.
Sam, who had been standing beside her, had rushed over to help Jaii as he came back to human form battered and bruised. As Sam's waving hand gestured her over, she obliged. Jaii was in bad shape, but he had survived. "Here, mind holding this for me?" The weight of the man shifted to lean on her, and she braced herself as she held him up. He was mumbling some, but when he spoke up she couldn't help but smile a little, even under the circumstances. "Hello Kennedy... My your all grown up." She laughed ever so lightly and nodded to Jaii, "Well, look at you, kicking the shit out of alphas these days."
After Sam let loose on Rick, Kennedy returned Jaii to him, still helping support him some. She had a few choice words for the beta, but her main concern wasn't to release all of her pent up anger. So, she followed Sam around to the garage, still helping carry Jaii. She looked at the two already sitting in the car, spotting the healer of the pack. Well, that's convenient.
