When I woke up I panicked; I have no idea where I am and there are two alpha males in the room with me. One alpha I could handle; but two was a death sentence. I realized I was still in my wolf form and someone had bandaged my wounds; but they still hurt like a bitch as I pulled myself across the floor. I crawled past the smaller alpha male with tousled brown hair and came to a silent stop as he rolled over in his sleep and threw his arms around me. I stiffened and bit back a snarl, praying he'd let go and not wake up. He hugged me tighter in his sleep and whispered 'No'. That's it. I snarled and was about to rip his arm off until his dark blue eyes slid open. " .ah. No need for that missy." He said; his voice commanding in the way alphas were. I growled and bared my human teeth at him. "Fine. If you're going to act like that I guess I'll have to wake up Tsume." He said, turning his head to the look at the other tougher, meaner looking alpha sleeping on his side. I whimpered in defeat. "Please don't. I'll do anything. Please." I pleaded helplessly, my fear stinking up the room. The alpha male's arms loosened around me and he peeled his t-shirt off. "Here, wear this for now. It's better than nothing." He said as he slid the shirt over my naked human form. I nodded compliantly and sat up, eyeing the sleeping alpha male nervously. "Don't worry. Tsume is a heavy sleeper; now let's go find you some food." The small male said, taking my hand and leading me out of the room. I limped and winced my way after him, thanks to my wounds from the day before, trying to keep up. "So what's your name, kid?" he asked, turning to look at me. "Rhea." I said quietly, not meeting his gaze. The alpha nodded, "Nice to meet you Rhea. My name's Kiba and the sleeping one back there is Tsume. Mind telling me where you came from?" the one now called Kiba asked. I bowed my head and began to spew a lie. "I'm from the big lab on the far side of the marketplace…" I knew it wasn't were I was from. Not originally. This body…this body was from that lab. But everything else- my soul, my heart- was mine. Kiba looked at me and nodded. "I thought so. You smelt like that place when I brought you in here last night after you passed out." He started walking again and we stopped at a big open kitchen with 3 other wolves eating in human form. Two male. One female. They must all use her to breed. "Hey Kiba!" they all murmured in unison, their eyes looking piercingly at me; judgingly. Kiba smiled warmly at them, "Morning Toboe, Blue, Hige." I backed up as the smaller, childlike wolf stood up and growled. I do not like it here. Too many wolves. Too many people. Too much- Thump! My eyes widened as I backed into something, no, someone and I let out a startled bark as arms closed around my ribcage and throat like a vise. "No need to growl at Toboe. He's a good kid." A harsh voice snarled in my ear. I stiffened and went limp, submissive. I should have smelt him when he walked in, but I didn't. The one holding me in a crushing grip…was the other alpha male, Tsume. "Tsume let the poor girl go. She's scared." The kid, Toboe, called, jogging towards us. My body was in fight or flee mode and I wanted so desperately to flee. To run far away from these people and there alphas. I've never been so scared in my life since-that day. The day my 'parents' brought me to . The day they stripped me down and plunged everything they felt like into my veins; a 5 year olds veins; without as much as a blink. My body went rigid at the memory and a warm fluid ran down my leg as well as tears from my eyes. I whimpered as I pissed myself in fear and squeezed my eyes shut trying to blink back the tears. "TSUME!" a voice barked; Kiba's. Tsume let me go quickly and I slipped in my piss trying to stand shakily. "Shh… It's okay now, Rhea. It's okay, don't cry." Kiba's voice murmured in my ear as his strong arms kept me from falling. I whimpered in humiliation and buried my face in is shoulder. "Don't hurt me." I whispered my voice shaky. Kiba looked at everyone in the room and then settles on Tsume. "Tsume, apologize. Now." Kiba snarls, holding me comfortingly. Tsume opens his mouth to protest but the childlike wolf, Toboe I think is his name, crouches by me and holds me gently as well. It seems to spark something in Tsume as he bows and snarls quietly. "I'm sorry." Toboe and Kiba seem pleased as soon as he says that, because they pull me to my feet and the woman, Blue, starts to clean up my…accident. I feel I can trust Toboe. He is young, and kind, and Tsume seems to have a soft spot for him. I can use that as an advantage. Toboe looks at me and hands me a loaf of bread. "Here." He smiles, "You need to gain some weight on those skinny bones of yours." I mentally snarl at him. I'm not skinny by choice; it is the drugs they pump into me that makes me thin. I take it from him gratefully, for I am famished. "Thank you…" I say as I drop to the floor and sit cross-legged, devouring the bread like an animal; like the animal I am. "So your Rhea right?" Toboe asks quietly as the others mumble to each other and Tsume growls at them. I nod and finish the loaf as Toboe hands me a glass of water and a string of smoked sausages. I down the water and finish the sausages in 15 seconds flat. "You were hungry huh?" he asks amused, smiling like a child. I shake my head. "I'm trying to gain my strength so I can heal and leave." Toboe frowns. "But you just got here… Kiba said you were part of the pack now." He pouts. I sigh, pouting kids aren't my thing and neither is being part of a pack. "Look kid, I'm not part of this pack and I'm not staying. I don't belong here. I was never meant to belong to a pack. I don't like you or any of your little pack buddies either." I mumble, eyes darting to Tsume and the others warily. "You're staying, Rhea." A voice says in my ear. I turn around and snarl, finding Kiba. "You can't make me." Kiba smiles toothily and smirks. "I can't. But he can." He says, looking at Tsume. I stand and gather up courage. "No he can't. I don't belong to this pack, so he has no power over me." Kiba sighs. "Maybe not alpha power, but he does have something over you." I growl as the words leave his mouth. "What do you mean…" Tsume walks over and sighs. "I'm your destined mate."
