IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE AT THE END! PLEASE READ!
PLEASE REVIEW!
After leaving Little Hangleton, Voldemort set to make himself so feared and awed that no one would dare speak his name out of fear. It wasn't easy, especially since he had been a newly turned wolf when he began to recruit followers. Many of the older and more experienced Alpha leaders would laugh and scoff at him, calling him degrading names like Puppyuntil Voldemort showed them that he wasn't to be messed with.
It took time and effort but Voldemort was nothing if determined to prove that he was above everyone, man and wolf.
He had to kill a few leaders and pack mates until he guaranteed his rule. There were always a few stragglers who refused to bow out of defiance or because they tried to deny their new existence as a wolf and no longer the human being they once were. The latter were always the most pathetic in his eyes. Denying their instincts as an apex predator, to try and live as peacefully as they could with their human families until it would finally drive them mad.
Voldemort had no use for the weak.
'There is no good nor evil, only power and those to weak to seek it.'
How he lived by those words.
Essentially, every single wolf, old and newly turned knew that he was the undisputed Alpha.

Voldemort stalked through the trees like a true predator, occasionally stopping to listen and smell his surroundings. He was a wolf on a mission. Voldemort knew why his Darling had been sent here, to this little town that most would think about in brief passing.
Harry, as one of the best Slayers around, had been sent to take care of a wolf pack that has been terrorizing the poor town his Darling was currently staying in.
Normally, Voldemort would never interfere in business between the wolves and Slayer's, but when it involved his beloved, Voldemort would be there to make sure that what he deemed precious would stay safe. In addition, he needed to have a little chat with the packs' leader before nightfall. If he could get rid of the problem himself, Harry would see that he would always be there to take care of him.
A show of strength that would have his Darling gazing upon him in awe.
And if the mission finished faster, it would allow Harry to not have to be in another's company, like that Cedric, any longer, making it all the better for Voldemort.
Just thinking about the blonde haired man who was getting much too comfortable with his Darling, made his blood boil and a snarl show upon his handsome face. If that insignificant little bug tried anything, Voldemort would gladly shred him into pieces. His Darling may nott see it but Cedric was interested inhisHarry romantically. Not that he couldn't really blame the blonde Slayer, his Darling was quite the beautiful specimen, but even then, Voldemort would have to find a way to make sure that no one, Man or Wolf, got any ideas to try and take what was his.
Voldemort's thoughts were immediately pushed aside when he smelt the wolf pack only a few meters away. He knew they would scent him as well but they wouldn't dare attack him.
Soon Voldemort stood in front of the pack of wolves who were quick to jump to their defense before immediately relaxing when they saw that it was him. His red eyes glanced at each and every one of them, memorizing their scent and their features. There were about twenty of them and he knew there had been more but the Slayers manger to kill off a few of them in the last attack. Nothing less than what he would expect from The Bloody Red.
"My Lord!" The pack leader moves forward to give a low bow, with his pack soon following after. The leader rose but kept his eyes lowered in submission to the powerful Alpha in front of him. "Is there anything we can assist you with?"
Voldemort tilts his head in contemplation. A few ideas ran through his head that had merit. He inwardly watched with smug satisfaction as the pack seem to shrink lower on themselves and shiver in fear as a wide cruel smile made its way upon his face.
A brilliant idea had formed. It was perfect.
"Yes." Voldemort purred dangerously. "I have an important mission for all of you. Failure will forfeit you life. Understtod?"
"Yes, My Lord." They mumured.

All day, the uneasy feeling churning in his gut made Harry nervous. Whenever this feeling popped up, something bad or tragic always happened to or around him. The last time Harry had this feeling, it had been when he watched Sirius murdered right in front him.
"Do you mind if I join you?" A familiar voice asked.
Harry's jaw tensed just ever so slightly, before putting the fakest smile he could make and turning to Cedric who stood behind him.
"Oh. Hello Cedric? Weren't you patrolling the town?" Harry asked and doing his best to hide his annoyance.
He just wanted some time for himself! Neither Ron nor Hermione would leave him alone for long and when they finally managed to let him be, Cedric always kept filling in. Sometimes Harry would be able to get away with not spending time with Cedric, but not as often as he would've liked.
In addition, Hermione and Ron were always trying to leave him alone with the older Slayer when they would "Suddenly Remembered" an errand they had to run. It was frustrating.
He hoped Hermione wasn't trying to set him up with Cedric. There was nothing wrong with Cedric, per se, but Harry wasn't interested in Cedric like that. Harry could admit to himself that if he had met Cedric first, maybe they could have tried to make a relationship work. But it would never be now and he had to let Cedric know.
Cedric smiled warmly and Harry secretly hoped Voldemort wasn't anywhere nearby because he didn't need to have any more stress added to him.
"I just finished and Ron took up his turn."
"I see." Harry answered.
An awkward silence follows soon after.
"Well, bye." Harry immediately says after a minute of awkwardness. Harry planned on patrolling further into the forest, hoping to track down the wolf packs' base. That would definitely make it easier to take them down and plan their next moves.
"Wait!" Cedric exclaims, quickly grabbing Harry's smaller hand in his own larger one. Harry can't help but compare Voldemort's hand to Cedric's. It is a vast difference in that Cedric's grip is almost insultingly too gentle,as if he makes one wrong move and Harry would shatter into a million pieces. While Voldemort's grip was firm and gentle but also completely possessive, never daring to let Harry out of his hold, something that Harry secretly enjoyed.
Emerald green eyes looked into sky blue ad Harry suddenly felt claustrophobic and on guard. Cedric was giving him an intense look, one that was familiar but not at the same time. It was a look that he had seen many times upon Voldemort's face. Cedric moved closer and Harry stepped back. The process continued until Harry's back was trapped against a tree.
"Cedric. What are you doing?" Harry narrowed his eyes. One of his hands may be trapped but that didn't mean he was defenseless. He's taken on opponents much bigger and stronger than Cedric.
One of the older Slayer's hands gently cups his cheek, and Harry growls in warning. He's never liked being touched, even by Ron and Hermione and here Cedric was touching his face without even asking for permission.
"Get your hand off me."
Cedric continued to gaze intensely at Harry, making the younger quickly lose his patience.
"Cedric."
The harsh sound of the blonde's name has Cedric refocusing back into reality. "Harry." Cedric says softly.
Harry decided he needed to end whatever this was before it could even form.
"Look Cedric, you're a nice bloke. Almost too nice." Harry began. "And maybe if we had met before this mission, there was a chance that you and I could have had something, but not anymore. Ron and Hermione are great friends, the best, but them trying to set us up was a disaster."
"There's someone else, isn't there?"
Cedric looked so heartbroken and it made Harry wonder if Cedric was remembering that moment Cho broke up with him.
Harry looked away briefly. "Yes." He states firmly. "There is."
Cedric gives a sad smile before leaning in closer. Harry watched warily. "What are you doing Cedric?"
"I'm sorry. Please just once." He whispered as he moved closer.
Harry startles at the request. "What?! Once what?!"
He gets the answer when lips meet his own gently. How Harry hates it. This kiss is nothing like Voldemort's demanding and passionate kiss. This too gentle,considerate. Harry wanted to feel passion and he knowshe will never get that with anyone but Voldemort. Harry quickly pushes Cedric away before the kiss lasts too long.
Emerald green eyes are firm and Cedric knows that Harry will never see him as nothing more than a comrade. He gives a small smile to the teen and moves away to a respective space. Before Harry suggest they part ways, the multiple howls of a wolf pack are close. Soon the two of them are surrounded all around.
Harry rolls his eyes as Cedric tries to be noble and stand in front of Harry. He was capable of taking care of himself, thank you very much.
Moving to the side, weapons aimed snd ready, Harry freeezes in place. Instead of the thel pack leader in front of them, Voldemort is in the pack leader's place.
His face full of hatred, jealousy and fury, though not aimed at Harry. No, that look is aimed towards Cedric.
"Voldemort." Harry murmurs, but it is loud enough for everyone to hear. Cedric sucks in a breath when he realizes who they are both facing, while Voldemort smiles darkly, sending chills down everyone's spines.
"Hello, Darling. I hope I'm not interrupting anything." He says mockingly.
Harry knows that Voldemort had seen Cedric kiss him.
And nothing good is going to come out of this meeting.
