Death Wolf Saga
Death Wolf Chapter 62 (Book 2)

A figure runs through the dense forest. Dry leaves crunching under his feet.

His heart pounding,as he tries to run faster. Looking over his shoulder to hear them chasing.

“Hurry! He went that side!’

He gulps. Looking in front, to run faster. His breathing getting heavy as his lungs protest.

“We can’t pick up his scent Sir!

He heard them panicking to make him more determined to escape.

“Then divide and follow! He must be here somewhere!”

Thankfully the magic potion was working and they couldn’t smell him, or he would be long dead. Reaching the point of saturation, he lean against a tree bark. To crouch down and hide himself.

Shutting his mouth with his hands to stop the sound of his heavy breathing.

“No clue Sir!”

“Sh**! Dammit!”

Neil, the third in command curses. Looking around in irritation.

“Don’t stop! Continue to find him! He is our last chance in finding the boy!”

The other’s join him while Daniel , continues to stay there immobile. His thoughts wandering off the people who were after him.

They were werewolves , he was sure.

But how they found him was more of a cause of concern.

18 years, he spent. Away from them. In order to keep Alexandria safe.

And now finding them chasing after him like that. He was worried.

No! He can’t let them know about her! He will die before he will let any harm come to his daughter.

Alexandria may not be related to him by b***d. But she was more than it by his heart.

Thora and him were married, and Alexandria was their daughter…she was the last memory…the only thing connecting him to his Fiore. And he can do anything for her.

He hears the footsteps closing in and his hands move to take out the dagger kept in boots. His senses on high alert.

“Seal the area! Everyone! Circle around! We got the order from the Alpha!’

.

.

.

“The hunter is to be restrained!”

Fear of not seeing Alexandria again and her being left alone enters Daniel’s heart. And he panics.

They are too many, more forces were coming in.

It’s impossible to run from there now.

He sees the wolves searching in some other direction and he decides to grab the opportunity.

His hand trembles on the device placed in his other hand which these humans call cell phone, and he knew. He has to do this now.

Dialing her number with shaking fingers, he places it on his ear. Gulping.

The phone rings and he anxiously waits. Hearing them getting impatient.

Pick up daughter. Pick up.

“Hello?”

“Alex?”

“Dad?”

” Where are you? I came home but I can’t find you anywhere. Are you at work.”

He breathes heavily. To look around. They were coming his way, he has to hurry.

“Daughter. Listen to me carefully. I am going away for next few days…I have some important work out of town. You…you take care of yourself okay?”

“Don’t wait for me”

There is silence on the other side. Unless she speaks, making his heart to thud.

“Where are you right now?”

Sh**! She won’t buy it. She wasn’t that stupid.

“Alex please listen to me. Just take care of yourself oka-‘

“I asked where are you dad! You are lying!”

He saw the men coming more closer. And he knew he had to end the call.

“I will meet you in few days. I have to go now. I love you my daughter.”

“Bye”

“Da-“

He ends the call. Switching off the device to only look around. Sh**!

“Did you hear that?”

“Yes Neil. He is here.”

Says a girl standing just in front of him with her back on him.

It was now or never. Taking out the dagger, Daniel. Takes hold of the girl , locking his arm behind her neck in a death grip. To only place the knife near her neck.

“Claire!”

Neil says, and everyone turns around to bring their attention to him.

“Let me go! Or I will kill the girl!”

Neil lifts his hand. Asking everyone to stay at their places. With no one moving.

“Let her go Hunter. You know you can’t escape this.”

Daniel tightens his grip on the knife. Not looking afraid.

“You are still kids…I have lived my life fighting. You really think I can’t escape you?”

Neil orders the wolves around through the mindlink, to circle around from behind. And Daniel noticed the exchange.

And the wolves moving slowly to their positions.

“Darn it!”

Daniel curses, to only push Claire to the floor and run. Till the formation completes.

The wolves shift growling and chasing behind him.

While he slashes one and kicks another. Running through the forest.

They were closing in !

Just a kilometre more and he will reach a cliff at the end of pack territory. It’s the only way now.

Come on faster! He could see the end of the cliff, when suddenly he feels a wolf closing in.

Sh**! He was very close.

And next he knows, the wolf latches on his thigh to literally pull him back and pin him under him.

Daniel doesn’t hesitate, to only root the daggers in the wolves leg. Making it whine in pain and fall back from him.

Pushing him off, Daniel gets up again. Running towards the edge of the cliff.

He sees the clear waters below and hope rises in his chest, but before he could jump. I huge force pushes him back to make him land on the ground with a thud.

“Ahhh”

Daniel screams in pain, holding his shoulder. Which seemed to be dislocated by the impact. Looking up, he almost gulps. Seeing his attacker.

A huge jet black wolf looks down at him with piercing green eyes and the wolves around immediately bow to him.

Daniel could feel the person’s aura.

It was not a Beta or a Gana b***d.

It was way more.

The beautiful wolf with black jet fur was a rarity. A royal wolf,who have been heard to go extinct years ago.

The wolf starts approaching Daniel, daring him to move. By blocking his exit and standing between the cliff and him.

And Daniel gulps. Knowing there was no escape now.

The wolf growls lowly, shifting his gaze from him to the wolves around. Who immediately shift and come forward with silver chains.

Daniel’s eyes however remain fixed on the Royal wolf, letting his men restrain him.

Almost captivated by him.

“You …you are going to regret it!”

Daniel seethes making the royal wolf to shift into his human form. And look back at him, with those green orbs.

“I will ask you once hunter. Answer truthfully.”

Silas says approaching him. To only see Daniel sending daggers at him. Struggling in the restraints.

“Are you the infamous hunter Daniel Black?”

A smile comes on Daniel’s lips as he spits the b***d in his mouth. To look at Silas and nod. With head held high.

“I am “

The eye match continues between their green and black ones. To only have Silas to nod at Neil. Who stood in a corner holding his wounded thigh.

“Arrange for it. You are coming with us”

With this being said, he turns around to leave. When a voice stops him, making him go still.

“He won’t!”

Silas closes his eyes, as the cold breeze brings along that scent , which he was addicted to like crazy.

She stood behind him, with sweat running down her forehead. Determined to save her father.

She rushes towards him to push aside everyone and hold her father’s wounded form.

“Dad? Are you hurt? Sh** you are bleeding”

Horror covers Daniel’s features seeing her there. And he pushes her back. Almost cursing her.

“What are you doing here! Go from here! Run daughter!”

She moves her head in a no. Looking at him with worry and fear.

“No dad! I won’t leave you! And neither will I let these monsters take you!”

She screams. Making deadly silence to follow. As everyone pondered if it was the girl’s bravery or rather stupidity.

Silas clenches his fist. Closing his eyes. With his back still on her. Till she literally screams at him.

“Open him! Now! You asshol*! Or I fuc*ing swear to kill you right here!”

Gasps are heard . As no one dares to disrespect the Royal highness. And that also like this.

But he? He stays still. Trying to digest the news ,that was going to move the very ground under his feet.

Hoping her voice and scent to be just a co incidence.

Praying that she is not her.

“I am talking to you , you murderer. Open the hell u-“

Her words get lost, as the man turns around. And her eyes met the intriguing pair of green orbs.

To only widen.

They were the same entrancing ones….she has been so drawn to since last few days.

No! This can’t be happening! God please!

Her throat runs dry as he looks at her with an emotionless face. That infuses fear inside. And she for a second thought, she didn’t knew the man that stood in front of her.

He was not the guy, who she just saw an hour ago.

He looked like a monster…a beast…a murderer to her.

“Hello little one”

.

.

.

“We meet again”

He says, placing his hands in his pockets and looking down at her. To only have her hands drop from the silver chains to fall on the ground.

“Si…Silas?”

She whispers in shock. To only be corrected by him. By a voice that sent a shiver down her spine.

“It’s your Majesty for you, Little one”
