Chereads / Crystals of Emerald / Chapter 2 - CHAPTER TWO

Chapter 2 - CHAPTER TWO

I saw..... a huge brown wolf, Jake, he is larger than Mike and Ryan, his wolf is 5ft tall. I stopped dead in my track, Jake's wolf was looking at me with murder intent. He took a step forward and l slowly took a step back but l heard growling behind me.

The pain in my body is crazy, l don't think l can run again. I fall to the ground exhausted, l can't feel my arm anymore, all l feel right now is immense pain.

"Aaaahhh!!!" I screamed when Jake clawed my neck, this is it for me, I'm gonna die. My vision started to blur, l saw Jake looking at the two others. l think he must be mind linking them, not long after Jake howled they all ran back.

I can feel the blood draining within every second, I'm loosing my consciousness. I saw my necklace down on the ground, the chain was broken. I moved my hand slowly with every ounce of energy left in me.

I held the the necklace and just stared at it. This is the only thing l had since I could remember, I never knew what happened to my biological parents but l was told that l was found in the forest as a baby and l had this necklace on me.

It's a small green glass leaf with a silver chain. It's barely visible to anyone, l looked at it with tears in my eyes.

'please save me' l said and held the necklace close to my heart before it all turned black. It's like sinking to an abyss of darkness, l can't feel anything, my body is all numb. I soon succumbed to the darkness. It's over, I'm dying like this.

Jake's POV

We left her there because she won't make it anyways alive, if not for my father l would have shredded her to pieces but he said that we should come to the pack meeting right now.

My wolf Ace is so mad right now because he wanted to torture her long but now duty came in.

We rushed back to the packhouse, when we had chased her we had gone far from the packhouse. We arrived and l mind linked Toby to bring some clothes at the backyard.

It wouldn't make a good impression to walk in the packhouse stark naked even though it's common.

We quickly changed and l fixed my hair and entered the packhouse. I went to where the meeting was being held.

"Where have you been!" My father immediately snapped at me when l entered. He looks pretty angry.

"I went for a run, what's going on?" I said and took a sit, there is Alpha Daniel from Darkwood  pack, he's here for some problems in his pack.

"The rogue attack is increasing and my fighters are wounded. We had dealt with my rogues but this time they were more in number than how my men were prepared for." Alpha Daniel said, he is pretty much as old as my father.

These rogue attacks have been frequently happening in his pack. "We'll give you supplies for the wounded fighters since wolfsbane takes time to heal." I said, we had talked about this before.

"We'll increase security at the pack border just in case they try to attack here too." My father said before the two old man stood up and shook hands.

"Alpha Jake and Mr Harris thank you for the help." Alpha Daniel said.

"We'll always be allies." My father said.

"I shay take my leave." Alpha Daniel said.

Author's POV

The moon shinning through a lattice of leaves, patchy sky and the stars seen in glimpses through tree breaks.

Lia's body lies on the ground motionless and covered in blood. Maybe death had already took her but something fascinating happened, Lia's wounds were healing and closing up.

The question is how can she do that since she is an omega. Flowers started blooming the area surrounding her. The wind blew swaying the leaves that blocked the moon.

A moment of silence came and not expected, Lia's eyes shot open but they were glowing emerald green, not only that but her blonde hair turned into dark green. Something about her aura seemed different.

With one move she swiftly jumped to a tree like a monkey. She started swinging from tree to tree going in the direction of the pack border.

After a while of jumping from tree to tree, she jumps down. She is near the pack border and there are about 20 wolves and a silver fence which is one of werewolves weakness because silver burns their skin and would take time to hear just like wolfsbane.

She dusted herself, she looks like a total different person. She started walking behind trees to the border but her steps halted went she heard the sound of a twig snap.

Turning around she saw wolves merging from the shadows, they circled her. It looks like today her fate wants her to die in the hands of this pack.

The wolves were about six and they were part of the patrol wolves. The wolves were growling and glaring their sharp canines at her.

"Step back!" Lia said but her voice sounded like two people speaking and it held this strange power. The wolves didn't make any attempt to heed her warning.

Two other men appeared again, they were wolves but in their human form. Both of them were the pack's fighters.

"What brings a beautiful lady to invade in our pack?" One of the guys with brown hair said. The guys didn't seem to recognize her at all which was great in a way because the whole pack knew her which could bring her more trouble.

"You guys are so stupid, you are all surrounding a lady while leaving the boarder unprotected, what if rogues invade?" Lia's said with her weird voice.

"The pack is none of your concern, right now you are the invader." The blonde guy said.

"Well it's true that it's none of my concern but I'm just making you aware of your surrounding."

"What do you want from our pack?" The blonde guy said and Lia chuckled.

"I thought rogues were killed on the spot without negotiation like what you're doing now, what if l say l want your head, would you give to me?" Lia's said and she folded her hands now daring them to do something.

"You sure have guts for a unarmed lady surrounded by eight wolves." The other guy said.

"Who said I'm unarmed ?" Lia said

"Sorry but l have no time to stand hear and chat all night, l have somewhere to be." Lia's said and turned to the border.

"Would you be kind and move out of my way please." She said to the wolves who were surrounding her.

The two guys laughed before saying." Do you think we'll let you go after you sneaked into our territory?" The blonde guy said.

"Well don't blame me for dragging you half dead out of my way, by the way l didn't sneak into your toxic pack." She said before tying her hair.

She.......
